Too cxpeuslve. Automobile records and automobile killings are coming along no rnpiuij that wo uro forced to look upon them as alternatives. Tho Chicago Journal, after deep thought, has found what was tho mat ter with tho bicycle. It was too much like work. Oil It, man. Edition thinks electricity will displace locomotives In the next thirty years. However, wo are still waiting for his inuch-udvertlsed storage battery. Blind have left tho Connecticut Tlvor and appeared In great numbers In tho Ohio. This Is the great Msh story of tho ago. How did they got there? A man choked to death on a single mouthful of meat tho other day, which teaches tho dnuger of experimenting with strange und unfamiliar food.

A Connecticut couplo propose to pend their honeymoon In a balloon.

From the Congo comes news of the discovery of an octopus, which seUes Its human victims and eats nothing but their brains. The young Kolglun o Ul cer who sends tho report escuped un harmed. Tho statement that live hundred nud thirty-two tons of cigarettes were ex ported from Kgypt In UKU suggests tho thought that In the time of Moaos and l'huruuh the world was spared such af motions ns this. Then thu plagues of Egypt were kept at homo. News comes from Cairo to tho effect that tho corn merchants at Assouan have formed a trust In order to corner all the wheat and other cereals on the market. The slow rlso of the Nile Indi cates a bad season next year and they liopo to realize n heavy protlt. Thin Is not, wo believe, tho lint comer Insti tuted lu Kgypt. Londoners thought that the next best thing to seeing the coronation was look lug at the decorations In Westminster Abbey, Thousands paid live shillings to enter tho church on tho II rm day that the public was admitted. The crowds were larger the next day, when the admission fee was reduced to half a crown; and 'on the third day, when only sixpence was charged, the people passed through the turnstiles at the rate of twenty-live hundred nu hour for six or seven hours, and the wult Ing lino was two miles long lu the af ternoou. It was noted that the sight seers were nearly all women. Every duy In the great A m erica u cities men, women nud children are killed by street cars traveling at a ratu of speed which makes such fatali ties certain. The record of these trage dies Is an appalling one. lu any other country but this an Instant nud rigor ous remedy would be applied. Ameri can leniency lu dealing with tho public-serving corporation must be held responsible for existing dangerous con ditions. There should be a limit to this leniency, however, and the tragedy la which President Hoosevelt confronted such deadly peril points a moral to this JTect, Hlstoiy records any number of mlits t stfi.t a und a fow catc wkor Uua is happily wedded to genius, but It has wholly overlooked tho no less interest ing unions of genius and good common sense. In 6ur own country we hnvo u fine example of tlilH In the caso of Mr. and Mm. Thomas Edison. Mrs. Edison Is n womnh of Influlto tact and has brought tho "great wizard" Into beauti ful subjection where subjection Is to his own advantage nud tho advantage of his work. He is by no means a docile man and bis genius pushes him at a headlong rate, but Mrs. Edison wisely holds the reins and keeps genius Itself In check. Mine. Tolstoi Is a match for her capricious, erratic husband. She allows his, whims wldo latitude, but thcro Is a, "thus far and no farther" to his caprice. When Mmc. Tolstoi puts her foot down It Is decisive, and thero tho matter cuds. It Is said the elegant gowns of tho countess nro In strange contrast to the peasant garments of her husband. Mmc. Tolstoi, no doubt, un derstands the psychology of dress and knows tho overmastering power of bonutlful clothes. Count Tolstoi or any other man may have his peculiar, Ideas about dress, but the woman In beauti ful gowns wfll conquer him every time. It roqulres a tact that amounts to genius to lire with genius on nmtcablo terms. Mrs. Edison and tho Countess Tplstol deservo n good sharo of the praise which Is glyen to their husbands. After the money-mnklng man gets along towards DO ho begins to think of his money as It may bear on tho lives of his children, after ho Is gono or Is past tho days of. toll. At first ho thinks of hls wealth chiefly for tho real or fancied good It may bring him or ns a moans of extending his personal power and Influence. Hut when his children ore growing up ho beglus to say to him self that ho will bo nolo to give or leave to each of his children a certain amount, nnd In a sense start them In life, not whero ho began, but. whero ho leaves off. Thoy shall not know tho limitations of poverty, theirs shall not bo tho painful struggles, tho humiliat ing privations of his early yenrs. All their llfo they shall have, without tho painful effort, what ho so hardly won townrds tho closo of his. Ills children shall bo spared his sufferings and benefited by his sacrifices. Hut nro thoy? A whllo ago n group of wealthy men wcro talking about their accumu lations, tho struggles they had gono through nnd what they oxpectod to do with their money. One of thorn, who began business llfo In tho humblest ca pacity, had nttnlned to great wealth nnd enjoyed -tho respect of tho commu nity ns a man whom monoy had not spoiled, said that It was his deslro to Idnvo each of lils children $1,000,000. Others spoke In a similar strain, and tho gathering was very hnrmoiilous un til n man, hitherto silent, remarked that ho thought his friends wore laying Just tho sort of plans thoy should not, Just tho sort of plans that were not ex emplified by their own successful and usoful lives. "All of you," ho said, "are proud of tho fact that you aro self-made men. You talk nbout tho pri vations and sufferings nnd humiliations of your early life, but you know that lu recollection they nro tho best part of your llfo. You nro glnd to-day that you can look back and say you wero poor boys and that aiono nud unaided you hnvo carved out your successful careers. .You know, too, thnt It was tho very obstacles you confronted that made you what you nro. Yet hero you aro talking about depriving your chil dren of the very opportunities for trou bio that made you. Hero you aro delib erately plaunlug to glvo them, glided, useless, parasitic lives, Instead of tho greatest gift you can glvo them, which Is to doprlvu them of tho asslitanco of your wealth. You know, every one of you, thnt tho best service you can do your chlldreu Is to turn them out nnd tell them to hustle." Somehow aftor this little speech had been spoken tho gathering lost Its complacency and self satisfaction. Thcro was too much truth In what had been said. Tho fond fathers recognised that but they will not act on tho advice. That they do not Is bad for their children, but not deleterious to tho comiuuulty, perhaps for pampered sons often do their best to make au equal distribution of wealth. Mudn a Good Guess, Sho was au amateur artist, nnd, like most of her kind, considered herself, several laps In advance of the average amateur. Sho was eager, however, to know how her work would Impress one of the masters who had managed to grasp tickle Fame by tho back of the neck. One day a real painter called nt her home, nud she Immediately conceived the Idea of testing him. Sho would show him a bvcclmen of her handi work, but would reveal nothing that might lend him to suspect her as being the creator thereof, So tho fair am ateur proceeded to guide tho real paint er toward her masterpiece. "Of wlmt school would you call this painting?" bhe asked, expectantly , "Of the boarding school," promptly replied the real painter. Spare Mo ments. An Assured Competouoo, "You must abandon all business can's fur the future," says the' physi cian. "Hut I fear that I havo not yet ac cumulated sutllcleut money," protests the multl-mllllonalre.
