Always Diplomatie. ‘When Daniél Webster was quite young at school he was one day guilty of a gross violation of the rules, and was called up by the teacher for punishment. On the way he spat upon the palm of his right hand and wdped it on the side of his pan- taloons. “Give me your right hand,” the teacher commanded. Out went the right hand, partly cleaned. The teacher looked at it.a minute and then said: “Daniel, if you will find another hand in .the school as filthy as that, I will let you off this time.” Instantly from behind his back came Webster's left hand, accompanied by the reply: “Here it is, sir.” He was sent to his seat. Although Daniel and his brother were sent to college. their father thought that the former ghould give some return for the money spent. So he put scythes into their hands and ordered them into the fields to mow with him. Daniel made a few sweeps with his scythe and then told his father it didn’t hang right. His fa- ther fixed it and Webster went to work again, but with no better success. Some- thing was the matter with his seythe, he declared. It was again ‘tinkered and again it was found at famlt. - - “Hang it to suit yourself,” his father declared. ‘With an expression of great composure ‘Webster hung it on the next tree, and as- suming a grave air, said: -“It hangs very well now. I am per- fectly satisfied.”"—Detroit News.

Are the Poor ‘Miserabie’ 7 ‘When 1 look at Mr. Glasworthy's tightened lips, I feel certain that they are drawn closely together, not to pre- vent himself from forgetting his indif- ference to himself, but to prevent him from pouring out his anger at wrong and cruelty suffered by other people. His hatred of injustice posseses him like a fury, 6o that I expert to find his hands always clenched. There are times, indeed, when he al- lows his feeling for others, human and animal, to destroy his sense of propor- tion; and he will sometimes imagine that people or beasts are suffering a great deal more of pain than they real- ly are, even that they are suffering when in fact they are not suffering at all. This is the complaint most com- monly made of him by his critics, that he sometimes exaggerates the extent to which people and, particularly, animals suffer. ‘When I was a child I remember that I often read in sentimental Sunday school books of slum children who never smiled and had never seen grass. I suppose that fundamentally I have a skeptical mind, for even then I found myself doubting whether there were any children in the world who had never seen grass. Grass is so persist- ént!. * ¢ * I knew that a street had only to be free of traffic for a short while and little blades of grass would begin to push up from ‘between the cobbles! * * ¢ It might be that slum children never smiled—though I was dubious of that—but all of them must have seen some grass some time. Then I grew up and left Ulster and went to England and for two or three years I lived on-the confines of a slum in South' London, where I discovered that my sentimental authors were sen- timental liars, that poor people do not live lives of incessant misery, that they smile and laugh as often as, if not more frequently than, rich people, and are fully as happy as any one else. Hap- piness and unhappiness are condition of the spirit, and provided a man has sufficient food to eat and a decent shel- ter and warm clothes, it matters very little whether he be rich or poer. Mr. Glasworthy is not always as sensible of this as he might be. Like many idealists, he attaches more im- portance to material things than many materialists do. He lets himself be too easily persuaded that a thing is wrong because it looks wrong.—St. John Ervine, in North American Review. $8,000,000,000 In Autes.

If it should be assumed that sitnation has about ar- rived and that 10,000,000 cars are the limit for this country, there would still be a great future for the industry. Replacing 10,000,000 cars would mean a steady demand for 2,000,000 cars annually,-five years being the generally accepted life of a motor vehicle, The pessimist will séee waste in hav- ing a car for every tem or eleven Am- ericans. He will talk of joyriding, of unnecessary travel, of wild extrava- gance. But the optimist will think of comfortable travel, of joyous eveur- sions to the country, of the swift con- venience which the automobile bas brought into the commercial world Everybody who has a car thinks he needs it, and Americans demand what they think they need. — New York Herald.
