He sees 1 basketful of pestilent corruption, pro - human weaknesses and limitations vided for the sport and entertainment very clearly and tells about them in i of microbes. Look at the workman - his own humorous and interesting; ship of him in some particulars! way. "Man can't sleep out of doors," What's his appendix for? It has no says Mark, "without freezing to death value. It's sole interest is to lie and or getting rheumatism; he can't keep wait for a stray grape seed and breed his,nese under water over, a minute trouble. What is his beard' for? It witout being drowned. He's the poor- , is just a nuisance. All nations perse est, clumsiest excuse of all the crea- cute it with a razor. Nature, however, tures that inhabit the earth. He has always keeps him supplied with it, in- to be coddled, swathed and bandaged stead of putting it on his head. A to be able to live at all. He is a rick- . man wants to keep his hair. It is a ety sort of thing any way you take `graceful ornament, a comfort, the best protection against weather, and he prizes it above emeralds and rubies, and half the time nature .puts it on, so it won't stay. Man isn't even handsome, and as for style, look at the Bengal tiger— that ideal of grace, physical perfec- tion and majesty. Think of the lion, the tiger and the leopard, then think ' of man, that poor thing! The animal of the wig, the ear -trumpet, the glass i eye, the porcelain teeth, the wooden } leg, the silver windpipe, -a creature that is . mended, all from top to bot- tom." We gather x grain of comfort on 'reading these remarks by remember- Iing that Mark Twain was a humorist, and that in pointing out the defects and failings of mankind, he does not in his serious moments overlook the fact that in comparison with the ani- . finals mentioned, lnan stands far ahead Tin intelligence and . general .under- standing. He is really not so bad as him—a regular British museum of inferiorities. "He is always undergoing repairs: A machine as unreliable as he is would have no market. . "The lower animals appear to us to get their teeth without pain or in- convenience; man's come through after months of cruel torture at a time when he is least able to bear it. As soon as he gets then, they must be pulled out again. The second set will last for a while, but he will never get a set that he can depend upon until the dentist makes one. Man starts in' as a child and lives on diseases to the end, as a regular diet. 'He has plumps, scarlet -fever, whooping cough, croup, tonsil - itis and diphtheria, as a matter of course. Afterwards as he goes along, his life continues to be threatened at every turn by colds, coughs, asthma, bronchitis, quinsy, consumption, yel- low fever, blindness, influenza, car- .buncles, pneumonia, softening of the brain, and a thousand other maladies he is painted. SPRING WEATHER HARD ON BABY The Canadian Spring weather—one day mild and bright; the next raw and blustery, is 'extremely harts on the baby. Conditions are such that the ,mother cannot take the little one out for the fresh air so Much to be desired. He is confined to the house which is often over -heated and badly ventilated. He catches cold; his "little stomach and bowels become disordered and the mother soon has a sick baby to look after. To prevent this an occasional dose of Baby's Own Tablets should be given. They regulate the stomach and bowels, thus preventing or relieving colds, simple fevers, colic or any other of the many minor ills of childhood. The Tablets are sold by medicine deal- ers or by mail at 250 a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Go., Brockville,. Ont.

Known Only By Love: Of course man is useful to man, be- cause his body is a marvelous machine and his mind an organ of wonderful efficiency-. But he is a spirit as well, and this spirit is truly known only by love_ Wheu we define a man by the market value of the service we can ex- pect of him, we know him imperfectly. With this limited knowledge of him it becomes easy for us be unjust to him and to entertain feelings of triumphant self-congratulation when, on account of some cruel advantage on our side, we can get out of him much more than we have paid for. But when we know him as a spirit we know him as our own. We at once feel that enmity to him is cruelty to ourselves, to make him small is stealing from our Own humanity, and in seeping to make use of him solely for liersoual profit we Merely gain in money or comfort what we pay for in truth.--Rabindrin- ith Tagore. • A single grateful thought towards heaven is the most perfect prayer,—, Leasing.

In many a group of the East or West Indies, one hears now and then of a white man who has made himself the potentate of some little island un- known to the outside world. The Ross dynasty in the Cocos Islands is a fa- mous ease in point, and there are sec; eral others; Early in the nineteenth century a certain French adventurer, Baron de Thierry, et the head of a hundred fol- lowers recruited in Australia, pro- claimed himself King of New Zealand. He soon discovered, however, that to be a successful king a man must have money, and it was the lack of this that caused the des'ertlon of his subjects and the consequent collapse of his "kingdom." A man named Antoine de Tounens established a monarohy In Araucania, a'country just south of Chile. Antoine was luckier than de Thierry in that he succeeded in escaping to France when. his people reb]led against hini. He died in. 1880 in comparative poverty, bequeathing his cream to his secre- tary, who, however, wisely elected to govern his kingdom from the safe' vantage -ground of his rooms in Parisi A self -elected potentate who wielded considerably more power than any of those already mentioned was William Webster, "King of Waiou." Webster, an American citizen, was formerly a ship's carpenter on a wlualer, buthad deserted and joined a little banet of settlers scattered here and there in Auckland.
