TYPES THAT ARE SIMILAR
Stupid or ThouehtIess Man May Well
Be Actuated by the Same
Principle.

There are some men formed with
feelings so blunt, with tempers so
cold and phlegmatic, that they can
hardly be said to be awake during the
whole course of their lives. Upon
such persons the most striking OBJ
jects make a faint and obscure Inn
preston.
! There are others so continually in
the agitation of gross and merely
sensual pleasures, or so occupied In
the low drudgery of avarice. or 80
heated in the chase of honors and
distinction, that their minds, which
had been used continually to the
storms of these violent and tempest
uous passions, can hardly be put In
motion by the delicate and refined
play of the imagination.
These men, though. from different
cause, become as stupid and insensi-
BILE as the former, but whenever eth
er of these happen to be struck with
any natural elegance or greatness, or
with these qualities in any work Of
art. they are moved upon the same
principle.-Edmund Burke.

LEARN. WHAT THE EARTH, rs
Here ls the Proper Definition Fresh
From the Pen Of
HumorIst.

The earth Is a ball, so situated in .
region called space az to get the full
benefit of the sun on bright days and
of the moon on romantic nights. 1t
is somewhat larger than . baseball,
but not so important. 1t Is not SO large
as a fixed star, but is much closer and
of q much pleasanter climate. 1t ID
not SO hashy as a charity ball, but
much more efficient.
1t has two poles Of which we are
certain, because they are vouched for
by explorers; a center Of which we
are not certain because it is vouched
for merely by scientists; an equator
and an axis which are imaginary;
Christian Scientists. which are imaS-
NATIVE; and mathematicians, which
are unimaginative. 1t Is inhabited
by people, husbands and other in
sects, animalculae and bacteria. IL
is connected with the rest Of space by
sound waves, light waves, wireless APP
paratus with instruments at the send
ing end only, telescopes and prayers.
1t has recently endeavored to exagger-
ate its ego by the use Of aeroplanes.
The earth is highly recommended
as both a summer and a winter resort
for wellto-do persons. Favorable
terms to desirable parties.-Pulitzer's
Magazine.

one word. He disliked to bother Mr.
Cannon, so he went to Several friends

them could make out the word in

he would consult Mr.. Cannon himself.

tive for the crime. He got Sis, tn

PLANNING FOR PRESIDENCY
Madison Politicians Believe Senator
la Toilette Is Preparing For
Four-Year Campaign.

The presence of Robert NJ La Fol
political talk in regard to his future
plans.
There is no question that he had
Walter Houser to confer with him
over the situation at large in the ma
ton and that it Is his intention to
make another fight for a presidential
nomination. The fight will be four
year fight apd the nation will have a
chance to gain knowledge Of La
Follette's persistency in a battle to
He will play the same part in the
nation that he played fourteen years
ago in Wisconsin politics, when he vir-
tually made a four years campaign
for the Republican gubernatorial nom-
ination and landed it upon, the third
trial. Senator La Toilette feels that
he is ready for what he justly con-
siders the greatest battle of his life,
and, as usual, he is picking his own
lieutenants for the fight.
1t is more than probable, before the
winter is over, La Toilette headquar-
ters will be established in Washing
ton and that Mr.. Houser will be in
charge. The plan of the fight is is to
be along the same lines as his Wis
consin battles. He intends during the
next four years to devote every min
ute of his spare time to lecturng. His
lectures will be on political conditions.
From the talk which Senator La Fol
lette had with Madison friends, he
does not seem to expect that great
deal of benefit to the people will be
accomplished by the Wilson admin
istration. This much can be put down
as a certainty, that Woodrow Wilson,
as president of the United States, is
to be watched closely, as was Presi
dent Taft by Senator La Toilette, and
if the senator thinks that the real
cause of progressivism is not gaining
at the hands of Wilson he will be a
remorseless enemy of the Democratic
president.
On the other hand he says that II
Wilson'S administration is progressive
he will support the Democratic presi-
dent.

Defeat Irish Bill by Decisive
Vote Of 326 to SO.

London, Jan. 3i.~After four days
discussion the house of lords rejected
the home rule bill, 326 to So The
result was foregOne conclusion.

because, as the Earl of Halsbury pa
thetically observed. the position OF
the house was now that OF an ordi-
nary debating club-the peers could
express their views and reject the
bill, but the, could not prevent it from
becoming law.

peers since the fatefui evening they
passed the parliament bill assembled
in the house and bejewelled peeresses
thronged the side galleries.
Lord Lansdowne wound up the de-
bate for the opposition; Lord Morley
of Blackburn for the government.
