Thouoht He Was In India.

When Rudyard Kiplins reached Lon don from India in his search for fame and fortune he lodged in some small rooms on Villiers street. One morn ing a friend called. and when he found himself in Kiplings sitting room he was surprised to see handsome mirror which stood over the fireplace smash ed to smithereens."
 Snakes" said Kipling. noticing the look of astonishment on his friends face. "I was dozing in my chair yes- terday evening. and my foot slipped out of my shoe. which for comfort ] had unlaced. Half waking. felt with my foot for the shoe and began slip ping it in when my toes touched the leather tongue. Shaker flashed across my sleepy brain. gave one desperate kick. and when the shoe struck that mirror I realized that was in Lon don and not in India.''

How He Learned English.

Wing See some years ago came to New York from San Francisco to see the big city before returning to his na- tive land. where he hoped to live on the money which he had saved. He wanted to learn q little English and rented a room on the east side over a store. He was q quiet man of good habits and soon made himself useful in the store. where he gave his time in exchange for the language experience. After six months he was ready to go to China. and after all arrangements for his trip had been made he went to Chinatown to show his English. He was surprised to find that his English speaking countrymen did not under stand him and finally learned to his horror that he had lived in German district and had learned German by mistake.-New York Tribune.

IN A FAMOUS CATHEDRAL.
Views From the Upper Regions of St.
 Paul's, In London.

Views From the Upper Regions of St.
 PauI's, In London.
 The famous whispering gallery of St. PauPs cathedral. London, is reach ed by a flight of twenty steps from the library. This gallery. which is about 21O feet above the cathedral floor. is noted for curious echo and is so named because a whisper uttered near the wall on one side of it is distinctly audible to person standing on the other side, a distance of 1OS feet in a straight line.
 From this point good view is ob- tained of the church interior, the tes- sellated pavement of which looks like d minute chessboard. but 1t is liable to cause giddiness to any one not used to heights. It also commands the best view of Thornhill's paintings and of the cathedral generally.
 From the whispering gallery 11S steps lead up to the stone gallery, an outer gallery with a stone parapet running round the base of the dome. Here in the clear sky of early morning may often be obtained wonderful view of London, view which is still more extensive from the golden gal lery above the dome.
 From this point the lantern may be ascended by a spiral staircase to the golden ball. where six persons may stand at once -.Argonant.

Ones Own Company.

One of the tests of character is the ability of q man to find satisfaction without egotiSn--in his own society. One who cannot be alone without a miserable restlessnesS must be the vic tim of structural defect in his per sonality. The well stored mind rro- vides company enough for an occasion al interval of solitude. He who has read well and thought much and care fully observed has introduced himself to q society which will afford him en- tert;inment when none in the flesh. is present. If man is afraid to be alone it must be because he is afraid of his own thoughts or because his thoughts are few and scattered and cannot fill the vacuity. Some of us cannot afford to think. when. as the poet puts it. but to think is to be full of sorrow" At such time we catch eagerly at any diversion that puts to rout the shadows.-Philadel- phia Ledger.

Study Them, Then Profit From Them, and Go Ahead.
 Study your mistakes. There are two kinds of mistakes. Those that happen from ordinary hu- man misthinking and those that come from carelessness and petty unthink. iI&
 Study your mistakes. No one ever gets too big to make mistakes. The secret is that the big man is greater than his mistakes. be- cause he rises right out of them and passes beyond them.
 After one of Henry Ward Beecher's sermons in Plymouth church, Brook lyn, a young man came up to him and said, "Mr, Beecher, did you know that you made grammatical error in your sermon this morning?"
 "A grammatical error!' answered Beechcr "I'll bet my hat that made forty of them!"
 Half of the power of the forceful man springs out of his mistakes of one sort or another. They help to keep him human.
 Study your mistakes.
 But the mistakes that tear away the power of man, weaken him and make him fiabDy are the stupid. the reckless mistakes. The clerk who for gets. the stenographer that doesn't care. the worker who neglects-these are the ones whose life blood and vi- tality are sapped and sucked away into failure.
 Study your mistakes.
 One of the great things of each day for you is to do your best, unmindful of mistakes. But after your work is done and you realize your blunders, don't shirk, don't whine, don't de- Sp0nd. but

LAYING A BRITISH GHOST.

East India Natives Used an English
 Formula, So They Thought.
 Lord Crewe, secretary of state for India, told a story of the jungle when bidding goodby to number of officers newly appointed to government serv- ice in India at an informal reception at the India office.
 q remember hearing years ago in India story of a young subaltern who went alone on shooting expedition away into the wild country of the Malabar coast. The poor fellow was attacked by fever in the jungle. died and was buried, and the people where fculty as to how his spirit might be pacified and not haunt them.
 Ut was necessary, therefore, to place upon his grave something dis tinctively British. which would keep the spirit quiet. They were hundred miles from any cantonment, but was told that small party of these simple folk went down to this cantonment and purchased bottle of whisky, two bottles of soda water and a paper of cheroots, which they placed on the grave, and l was told that. ill spite of difficulties, every year party of them trotted down for the same purpose.
 Ut seems a matter for regret that a concrete expression of Englands na- tional genius could not have found outlet in different formula. ."-Pall Mall Gazette.

PARTiSANSHIP DWINDLING.

One of the significant political de- yelopments in this country during the past ten years has been the steady subordination of partisanship to pa triotism by men of every shade of political belief. The Lowell, Mass, Courier-Citizen comments as follows, with pith upon one feature of the change:
 Do not, we beseech you, fall into the notion that this great country de-, bends for it's future absolutely upon party politics That is a crazy idea held by superficial reasoners alone. It never had any basis of fact, but the ease with which people could be got to believe it has been traded upon by both our great political parties on occasion, and will be relied upon yet again. Without doubt there will be reactions from time to time against parties in power-and often the re action will, within limits, have ba- sis of justice. Remember, always, that it is surface condition and that whatsoever happens ill political cir cles, this country is vast, is full of resourceful men, has untold wealth locked up in it's bosom, and will go on just as surely as goes on the solar system. Have little broad faith in your times, and in your country, and in the immutable laws of nature; and have a little less abject reverence for the power of few politicians to turn back the sun in heaven"
 We need go no farther than the non-partisan votes by which the re gently enacted tariff and currency reform bills were enacted to see in concrete form the desire of the Amer ican people that where big issues are concerned their representatives iS- nore the arbitrary dividing line of parties. Both measures picked up votes in each house from all three parties, as has been the truth with important leaislaton during a part of the Roosevelt regime, much of Taft's administration and so on into the day of Wilson. Of cour SC. where great crises face the nation, as in the case of war or panic, party lines automat- ically dissolve But it has remained for legislation and presidential con- tests in peace times to develop the death knell of the more bitter species of partisanship.
 Parties there are and always will be as long as we have government by the people, and as long as men har- bor honest difference in. conviction. But it begins to look as though we have really bidden final farewell to the time when men will vote sim ply because of the label of party, or when intelligent congressman will support or oppose measures bearing on the universal welfaree simply be- cause they originate in the opposite camp -.
 At the last analysis the intelligent American has awakened to the true function of parties. And this is their business to- afford him a medium to express his convictions and desires ir- respective of the title they bear. That development is itself notable pro gress, since when men keep the end and the means to the end in proper perspective, much has been accom- plished-Atlanta Constitution

CRITICS AND GENIUS.
Carlyle Denounced Spencer, and Rus

CarIyIe Denounced spencer, and Rus
 kin RidicuIed Whistler.
 The good critic must in some way begin by accepting literature as it is, just as the good lyric poet must begin by accepting life as it is. He may be as full of revolutionary and reforming theories as he likes, but he must not allow any of these to come like a cloud between him and the sun, moon. and stars of literature. The man who disparagcs the beauty of flowers and birds and love and laughter and cour age will never be counted among the lyric poets, and the man who questions the beauty of the inhabited world the imaginative writers have made-a Rorld as unreasonable in it's loveliness as the world of nature-is not in the way of becoming critic of literature
 Another argument which tells in fa vor of the theory that the best crit tcism is praise is the fact that almost all the memorable examples of critical folly have been denuncations One remembers that Carlyle dismissed Herbert Spencer as a never ending ass" One remembers that Byron thought nothing of Keats-Jack Kctch. as he called him. One remembers that the critics damned Wagner's operas as :l new form of sin. One remembers that Ruskin denounced one of Whis tiers nocturncs as a pot of paint flun:. in the face of the British public In the world of science we have thou sand similar examples of new genius being hailed by the critics as folly and charlatanry-Rob I.ynd in British Review
