Gladstone and Maeaulay's History.

In Macaulsy all history i scenic and
philosophy he scarcely seems 10 touch
except on the outer side, where il opens
into action. Not only does he habitually
present facts in forms Of beauty, but
the fashioning of the form predominates
over, and is injurious to, the absolute
and balanced presentations OF the sub.
ject. hlacaulay was a master in execu-
ton. rather than in what painting or
music terms expression. He did not
fetch from the depths, nor soar TO the
heights but his power upon the surface
was rare and marvellous. He
mingled, then, like Homer the functions
OF the poet and the chronicler; but what
Homer did was due 10 his time; what
Macauay did, to his temperament.
The History" OF Macaulav,
whatever else it may be, is the work not
OF a journeyman but OF a great artist,
and a great artist who lavishly bestowed
upon il all his powers, Such a work
once committed TO the press. can hardly
die. II is not because il has been trans
lated into crowd of languages nor be-
cause il has been sold in hundreds of
thousands, that we believe it will live;
but because, however open il may be to
il has in it the character OF a
true and very high work of art Glad

Rags, Rubber and Paper.

mixed cotton rags bring in large
quantities such as no housewife can pos
sibly have S2.T5 TO $500 Pc hundred
pounds This is the price which every
large dealer pays TO small collectors
commonly known as 'junkmen.' You
can readily see that il is almost impos
sible for one OF these collectors to get
more than 100 pounds OF rags in a days
work, and II you figure the cost of keep
ing his horse, etc, You can see that he
can afford 10 pay but very little TO the
housewife. OF course, he not only col.
lect rags, but also old papers and met

Rubber is worth anywhere from five
cents a pound for old rubber shoes TO
around 20 cents for good rubber tires.
The same conclusions governing low
prices apply here.
IL take il that the housewives of
whom You speak have an insufficient
quantity TO make il worth while for
anyone but iunkman TO bother with.
A good deal of mischief has been done
by misleading articles in the press, a.
to the value of old rags, papers, etc.
They have entirely overlooked that the
principal item of expense is the cost OF

large paper mills for such material is

this is true.

thorough rub down with a coarse towel,
