Binuotli An honest mini's tliu noblest work of God, unless lie doesn't belong to your purty. Knglnml keeps on raising princesses for tlic (Inrinnn princes In splto of the trained relations. Time wnlts for no mnn, but mnn hn8 to wnlt at lcnHt an hour when a woman tells him to wait Just a second. When a jrlrl begins to Hpeak of her elf hh a bachelor maid It Ih a Huro nlgu that hIiu has given up all hope. Tho author of "Goo-Goo Byes dead, but the creator of "A Hot Time" has not yet gone to the reward of which ho anjf. One Rood turn deserves another, ev ery place except on the vaudeville singe. There the proportion Is about one to ten. (lood deal of talk In the air about a Ucrmun-Auicrlcun alliance. All of which Is as Interesting as a last year's ainre's nest. The milliner of Jlrst poems written Uy Whlttler Is now equalled only by the uumbe.' of oldest Vale graduates who have recently died. The man who leaves church Just as the collection plate starts around may have been taken suddenly HI, but he rarely gets credit for It. No kissing ever occurs In Jnpan ex cept between husband and wife, not even between a mother and child. What a shameful neglect of opportuni ties. Prince Henry was not born In a log cabin, nor did he work In a brickyard In his youth. Ho achieved his present Kreatness without these boosters which are so essential In the greatness sprouting business In America. The panic In the diamond market Is growing worse Instead of better. It Is now almost Impossible to get No. " whites In carload lots; No. 1 blues can too obtained only In bushel lots; and No. 1 straws are no longer quoted, except by the peck. A lire In a tlreproof building In Chi cago the other day revealed a quan tity of lultammable asbestos. Tho tire chief of (.'hlcago has observed that much of tht) asbestos In use In large otllco structures Is not only not tlre proof, but highly combustible. The quick burning construction buildings are warranted to huve It soon over with. Hawthorne wrote hi his note-book: "No place ever took so strong a hold of my being as Koine, nor ever seemed so close to me and so strangely familiar. 1 seem to know It better than my birthplace, and to have known It long er." The words furnish one of many reasons why the proposed statue of Hnwthornn In the Kternal City will bo a Uttlug memorial. Mrs. John Jacob Astor dcllucs a gen tleman as a college educated man. Mark Twain disagrees and gives his detlul tlou: "A kindly, courteous, uuselllsh Bian, who thinks tlrst, not of himself, but of his fellow man, that ts what a gentleman Is; not one of these society chappies,' who In reality Is one of the must Hellish men on earth." As be tween the two most persons will prefer Mr. Ulemeus' dellultlon. Bluiv, by their own account, all the European governments are the fervent friends of the United Slates, wo shall prolxthly never II nil a better- time than this to Inquire If this country has en emies also, and If so, what shave of blame rests upon us for having them. It Is as true of nations as of men, that wise saying twelve centuries old, which Lowell rendered: lie who Inn u tliousitml frleiuU litis not u friend to npnre, And he who hus one enemy will meet hhu everywhere. The authorities of a Pennsylvania town, allllctcd with a scourge of small pox, ucted lit the light of experience when they ordered that all dogs and oats found running loose In the streets ahould be shot. It Is well known that these animals carry contagion, as their bale otters a congenial lodglug-placo for disease germs. Parents cannot be too careful In keeping pet cats and dogs out of the sick-room of a scarlet fever or diphtheria patient, and In seeing that their children do not play with pets which belong to families where there Is or has recently been contagious disease. IVofessor (loodspeed, of Chicago Uni versity, writes to the Independent of a small, clearly legible slip among some Greek papyri which have lately coin-) Into his hands. It Is a boat ticket from undent Kgypt, entitling the holder to a ride upon the canal that passed through Karnls, the modern Koom Ushlm, lu tho Faynm, The ticket gives the pus aeuger's name, the place from which tie sailed, ami what Is supposed to bo the captain's acknowledgment that the faiv was paid. The traveler was Pto lemaeus sou of Paunmleus; and lsldo rus, sou of lsldorus, was tho pilot. Tho last lino of the document Is "liven full," tho "even" being Interpreted to lue&u that the passenger had settled ths charges, and the "full" that the ticket bolder Is going as far as the boat routo extends. Wo moderns would say "through" Instead of mil." The ticket Is assigned to the second century. The papyrus measures two and a quarter Inches by three and a half inches, and has been folded, or perhaps rotted and crushed, four times. It Is too late to wish l'tolpniiicus a cood voyage, or to congratulate lsldorus on his record as a faithful tillot: but the survival of their names has a pathetic Interest, and Is a reminder that tlmo has an uncx pected way of sparing what might rea sonably be supposed doomed to destruc tlou or to oblivion. It Is u sinfully hard thing to hold an American monthly magazine open, with oiiu notable exception. Much of the pleasure or profit that might be de rived from reading a magazine article Is lost to the holder of the book be cause of his Irritation conscious usu ally, subconscious sometimes, present always at being compelled to make a physical effort at the same tlmo us his mental effort When an old man Is reading a statistical magazine article and Is obliged to Jam his mentor vio lently apart to Had out whether the II rut word on the next line Is 1230 or UHO.OOO, his mental embrace of the fact Is loos''iied. When a girl, reading a love (ale, has to pull at the two cov ers of the book, with her knee stuck between tli'in, to Hud out whether the father cuiwcri or consented on hearing Harold's proposition, she Is less ex cited when she tlnds It out. It Is be cause her train of thought, which has been highly emotional, Is suddenly In terrupted by a material annoyance. In each case the magazine is less satisfac tory to the reader than It might have been. The teasou that the magazines are so hard to keep open Is because they are bound with wire binding. Wire binding Is cheaper and quicker than thread binding. It Is also a good deal less satisfactory to the reader. .Many of I he foreign magazines are bound with thread. When opened they stny open, and, after the American monthlies, they seem a delight to hold. In view of tho wrecking of tho City Havings Hank of Detroit by Its vice president, I 0. Andrews, who, by means of falsllled statements, appro priated about $1,000,000 of the bank's funds to bis own use, the advice given to young men by William J. Oiiahau, president of the Home Savings Hank of Chicago, as to the best means of ac quiring a competency or wealth be comes both Interesting and timely. One of Andrews' frequently expressed max ims was that It was Idle to expect to get rich merely by saving a portion of ono's salary, and that It was only through daring speculative ventures that large fortunes were nmnssed. Mr. Ouahan holds, on the contrary, that thrift, honesty and steadfastness of purpose aro now, as they always have been and always will' be, the only safe and absolutely sound foundation-stones upon which to build a bank account, and that while riches may sometimes Ih acquired by other means, tho chances that a departure from correct principles will he followed by disaster rather than success are so overwhelm ingly great that the few exceptions serve only to emphasize the general rule. The fate of Andrews himself Il lustrates the tiuth of this clearly. Mr. Ouahan Is exceedingly well qualllled to discuss the subject of money-getting In all Its phases. Some time previous to becoming president of the Home Sav ings Hank he held the otllco of Comp troller of the city of Chicago, and for many years has been connected lu one way or another with large llnauclal In terests. The advlco he gives to young men and boys Is by no means new. It has been repeated time and again by men of experience ami authority, but for all that there are many persons, young and old, who seem to think that the methods by which tho largo for tunes of some years ago wero built up have become antiquated and are uc longer applicable. This certainly Is a mistake. Too Kurly. One raw February morning nu In Htruotor In the University of Michigan was callhiK the roll of nu eight o'clock china lu Kngllsh, "Mr. HoutiliiK," suld lie. There was no answer "Mr. Uobblns," In a slightly louder voice. Still no reply. "Ah," Haiti tho Instructor, with a (pilot smile, "come to think of It, It Is rather early for robins." This Is Current Literature's ance doto of tho late Moses Colt Tyler, who later became professor of history at Cornell, ami It shows him lu tho pleas ing light of a man who could be boy. Ishly gay at a gray and cheerless hour no small feat, If one stops to consider an Instructor's provocations to morn, lug dullness. Tito "Canity Cruao." According to a London paper, the "candy enuso" Is the latest fashionable Importation from America. "No thea ter party," It Is announced "worthy of the name, can exist for half an hour without the comfort of the appearance of chocolates ami sugared almonds." Mouto Carlo' Nulolilo Cemetery.
