DR.. Henry Moskowitz, commissioner of
public markets, said in an address in New
York:
GA cynical and self-seeking spirit pre-
vailed in buying and selling when the war
began but this spirit is being fast sup
planted by generous spirit Of cooperation
and fraternity.
''The cynical spirit, now happily on the
wane was like that of the aged banker, who
said to a friend:
Yes | expect to marry one of the
proudest and most beautiful girls in New
York. You see, young suitor sings to his
sweetheart, Love me-and the world is
mine.' But I've got a better method, by
lingo. | sing, "Love me-and the world
is thine" I'm bound to win out, don t you

A few months ago Gen. Pershing one day
wanted a taxi for quick drive to some
point. The taxi was little tardy in re-
porting and when it was driven up by a
woman chauffeur the general looked at his
watch and said: Madam, I've been waiting
for you three minutes
"General" said the little Frenchwoman
with respectful military salute, "we've
been waiting for you three years. -
Everybody knew that he had money, but
nobody ever saw it, and the lads of the vii
lage dubbed him "Skinfint'
To all requests for help he would return
the same answer:
''No; respond only to the appeals of the
deserving poor"
One day, however, collector inquired of
him:
"Well, sir, and who are the deserving
poor?''
Skintiint gave crusty sigh as he wheezed:
''Those who never ask for assistance"
''There, now,' said the newspaper mans
wife, ''this room is to be your den to do as
you please with it. | shall not clean it up
any time. You may throw your papers
around on the floor until you are sick of

yourself, if it ever becomes so bad it offends
your sense of decency.'
The plan was a great success. No room

Everyone's Life of Dante

A Ny life Of Dante intended for the
"a laymen and not for the student
ought to be good deal more than q mere
biography.
Charles Allen Dinsmore's new Life Of
Dante AFghieri is, if we are not mistaken,
the best popular" life of the poet. 1t is
not contribution in the sense of adding
new material to the mass of discoveries of
scholars like Witte, Toynbee and Moore;
but it is a work that, being based upon the
latest available facts, comprises all the
knowledge of earlier biographers that is
Of interest and value to the general reader.
\ good part Of the book is devoted to
a consideration of the history of the times
in which Dante lived. The first two chap
tiers, The Thirteenth Century, and Flor
ence: Study in Democracy, are interest
ing apart from the subject they are de-

signed to illustrate; taken together with
it, they supply broadly intelligent view
point from which to study the biography
proper that follows.
AS Mr.. Dinsmore says, the interest in
Dante of late years has been extraordi-
nary Before the great war the growing
interest was notable. James Bryce, in his
Lowell Institute lectures, referred to it as
the literary phenomenon of England and
America" The new Life is doubly well
come: it places before the general reader
a concise but ample life of the, poet, and
is in addition the only exhaustive" book
of the sort that has been published in this
country. This is the authors own state
ment, and he ought to know! B. H. C.
