All Should Toll.

Ideal social progress requires the
productive activity of every human
capable of adding to the general total.
This is UrOpian. 1t ought not to be
so much of a dream, but ii will be
what it is so long as human nature
remains what it is. Men differ so
much. Some acquire laziness and
some are born lazy. But the results
are the same. You even have aristo-
cratic loafers who pull all sorts of
hereditary stuff in make-believe at
tempts at superiority. They would
have you substitute them, and guaran-
fee their future against want and
work. It's all bosh. They have no
claim upon humanity other than a
right to an opportunity to make good
in the world. Instead of an easy time
they need the prod Of necessity. The
lazy few, be they poor or rich, are
the drones of society.-Exchange.

REALLY OF ENGLISH ORIGIN
Punishment by Earring and Feather.
inc First Instituted by King Rich
ard Many Centuries Ago.

Throughout the EngIish-speaking
world there seems to he widespread
impression that the punishment of tar
and feathers is something peculiarly
American and that the practice orig
mated with and is confined To mobs in
the wilder or more remote sections OF
the United States. But the practice
did not begin in America and is, in
fact, English in origin.
The first known use of tar and
feathers was in the British navy $50
years ago. 1t is on record that in
1889 Richard of the Lion Heart, when
about to start on the Third crusade,
ordered that such of his sailors rs
were found guilty of theft should be
covered with boiling pitch and
feathers or down be then strewn upon
them.
This ancient employment OF boiling
pitch of course meant death, while
the modern application of pitch heat
ed only enough TO run and smear Is
not necessarily fatal. The modern
American practice is, therefore, a
more mercifuI adaptation Of an an
cient British substitute for the usual
hanging of a thief.
