John Horne Tooke.

A renegade priest, who openly
scolfed at his calling and who led a
life, to say the least, which could not
be called respectable, would not be
we'll esteemed as private citizen, not
withstanding his learning and the IN
genuity of his own generally admired
work. "The Diversions Of Purley.'
John Horne Tooke was born on June
%, 1886, and it was not so many years
after that he was looked upon as one
OF the political pests of the era. 1t Is
rather startling that all the pubic
questions on which his opinions were
deemed mischievous have since been
settled in his favor.
Tooke was fined and imprisoned for
his opposition to England's war With
her colonies. Twenty-three years after
his death reforms in the house of com
mons which he strongly advocated
were brought about. He was the tlrsr
prominent Englisnma to proclaim the
advantages of zee trade, and his
biography may wei be kept in view as
a monument to the futility Of intoler'

Rock Has Great History.

report on the Dome Of the ROCK
of Jerusalem is shortly to be pub
,ished and will be of great interest to
the Mohammedan world. 1t may not
be generally known that this place is
the third in sanctity Of all the sane
tuaries OF Islam, and indeed for a
short period it actually formed the
Kihla toward which all Moslems
prostrated themselves in prayer.
Among the more important religious
associations of this rock we may men
ton that it was here that David and
Solomon were called TO repentance,
and on account of a vision David
chose this site for his temple. From
this same spot Mohammed ascended
to the Seventh Heaven after his night
tourney from Mecca. and lastly 1t IS
TO he the scene Of the Great Judg-
ment. The historical associations are
not less striking, and such famous
names as Omar, Aldtlma1ek, Saiadln
and Sueiman are all connected with
the rock.-Zanzibar Gazette.

a tax for being allowed 10 carry q

In the "tippinS house" address OF
Mayor Wharton he called the old-time
salo"nS vile sinks"
Gazing houses also came in for his
attack. He declared that many such
houses were being operated in the
city openly for the destruction Of the
unwary, and lamented that there
were 30 laws against them. A refer
ence to fine of 10 shilling for the
unlawful discharge Of firearms was
mentioned by Mayor Wharton.
He criticized the filthy condition OF
Certain foatwayS' and recommended
fixing the payements on many city

A police flyer was also found near
where the old rogues' gallery used to

Some Fine Resolutions

The new year is more than month
old now, but it is never too late to
make good resolutions. One of the
leading business houses of the country
in a circular letter to its customers
on the first of the year, suggested
the following:
''To be so strong that nothing can
disturb your peace of mind.
''To make all your friends feel that
there is something in them.
"To talk of health, happiness and
prosperity to every person you meet.
''To look on the sunny side of ev-
erything and try to make your opinion
come true.
''To think only of the best, to ex-
pect only the gest.
''To be just as enthusiastic about
the success of others as you are about
your own.
''To forget the mistakes Of the past
and to press on to greater things in
the future.
'To wear a cheerful countenance
at all times and to have smile ready
for every living creature you meet,
''To give you so much time to the
Improvement of yourself that you
have no time to criticise others.
ITO be too large for worry, toe
noble for anger, too strong for fear
and too happy to permit the presence
of trouble.
'sTo live in the faith that the worlc
is on your side so long as you ari
true to the faith that is in you
This is a fire code, and we woulc
all be better off and happier if We
would live by it. There can be nc
better time for making these resolu
tions than now, but the important
thing is to keep the resolutions aftel
we make them. Like crying babie:
in church-they should be carried
out.
