The wise man, however, will heed the words of the chorus girl who told a surgeon "It is death to be bowlegged in the chorus, but it is better to be bowlegged than dead." " .

Ideals and Revenue The roulette wheels of Monte Carlo were stopped while a nev Prince of Monaco was lieing installed, but it is un likely that they will be broken up for firewood. Prince Louis, who was formerly a general in the French army, is said to be opposed lo gambling, out it is a revenue oi live million dollars a year from gambling concessions that sup ports his throne! , Ideals that interfere with the produc tion of revenue rsunlly are discarded. Rulers i.i the fashionable little principality are wise in' one respect. They do not permit any of the lti.OOO inhabi tants of their principality to gamble, reserving the privi lege for visitors. The community would not be so pros perous if the natives stood beside the visitors at the gambling tallies' and the people would not be so contented. Strangers are rated according to the wealth they have, and treated accordingly. I lie management does not bother its conscience if visitors lose all they have in greedy ef forts to win more. In other days it was said that good bartenders did not drink. Wise saloonkeepers not infrt'tuently were teeto talers, and employed only those who were temperate in their habits. The welfare of their patrons was onther matter entirely These are instances of brotherly love in their most in teresting phases. The times, however, are improving. Many a man who is a slave of habit likes to boast about his personal freedom.
