The Editor and The Lawyer.
Of Mr. S.H. Blake, who hits recently
more than once gone out of his way ,to
denounce the press, the Toronto
World has this to say :—The morality
of the daily press, and it might have
added the meekly toe, will compete
very favorably with the morality of
the profession of which Mr. S. H.
Blake is a member. There are some
papers at least which will net advo-
cate. a cause for money, but there are
few, if any, lawyers who will not han-
dle any case, however unjust it may
he, provided the fee is large enough.
The very day when Mr. Blake was de-
nouncing the daily press he sold his
services to a client or clients who were
engaged in the ignoble business of cor-
rupting the people's representatives
and undermining the fnundatihn of
oiir"judicial system. A lawyer Is not
obliged to advocate the cause of dis-
honest amen. if the ethics of the legal
profession Oblige its members to advo-
cate whatever briefs are placed in their
hands, irrespective of their morality,
there is no law preventing lawyers
from renouncing their profession. If
Mr. Blake wishes to criticise news-
papers he had better file his resigna-
tion with the Law Society. The man
who will take up any cause for money
better not talk morality ta the news-
paper editor.

Every one remembers Sam Weller's story
about the man who said "crumpets is
wholesome" and who ordered in B shil-
lings' worth, "toasts 'em all, eats 'em all
and blows his brains out." In Boswell's
"Johnson," in the chapter which records
Garrick's death, 1779, Johnson and Beau -
clerk had a violent dispute about ono
Hackman, who was condemned to death
for what was undoubtedly murder. Beau-
olerk tells the story thus:
"Mr. —, who loved buttered muffins,
but durst not eat them because they die
agreed with his stomaoh, resolved to shoot
himself, and then he ate three buttered
muffins for breakfast before shooting him-
self, knowing that he should not be trou-
bled with indigestion. He had two charged
pistols. Ono was found lying charged
upon the table by him after ho had shot
himself with the other."
Gould Dickens have got his story from
this?—Notes and Queries.

Thrift said, "la this, life's garden,
Dreamyou a merry day."
And se I dreamed while morning dreamed
Over the hills away—
Over the goldel:6 hills •
Where the land of promise lay,.
And I heard the chime of the bells of time
Qver the hills away:
'4Dreame, dreams, dreams—
A little of right and wrong,
Laughing and sighs and weeping eyes,
And sitenco.atter the song—
Silence after the song—
Silence Lone and long)
Stormy skies or starry beams—
Dreams, dreams, dreams!"
And, dreaming in life,'s garden
Upon a couch of May,
There came a blight from lands of night
• Over the hills away—
Over the misty hills—
And time, to a mantle gray,
With shadowed eyes, 'neath ruined skies.
Passed over the hills away.
"Dreams, dreams, droams—
A little of right and wrong,
Laughter and sighs and weeping eyes,
And silence after the pang—
Silence after the song—
Silence lone and long)
!e it storm or starry beams—
Dreams, dreams, dreams!"

A STORY OF TODAY.
When Elliott Raymond bought a farm
in Flint valley, it was not because he in-
tended going into agriculture, or because
he wanted to be quoted as "gentleman
farmer"—it was because he had money he
didn't know what to do with.
Hurrying down to tho station onemorn-
ing to catoh the train in order to join the
first meet of the Flint Valley Hunt club
he ran against his broker, who stopped
him long onciugh to say:
"Great Northeastern went up any num-
ber bf points yesterday. We sold. I'll
send you a chock for $4,000 today."
On the train Elliott had time to think
over several business matters, among them
the rise in Northeastern. Four thousand
was a small sum to Elliott Raymond, but
still ho didn't know what to do with it.
Banks were paying only throe. General
Metallic was away down. Real estate was
low, and it was still a problem when the
train stopped and ho climbed on to Tom
Harvey's coach beside Miss Carruth. In
her society ho forgot all about Northeast-
ern, General Metallic and banks that pay
only throe.
"The hunt starts at 1," she said, smil-
ing at him with frank, level eyes. "We
have luncheon at The Birches," and so the
conversation drifted, followed by a swift
run across country after tho hounds, a
dash through Patuhin's woods and gully
and the meadows beyond, whore Miss
Carruth came in first and won the brush.
"Shall we go hone by the Willow road?"
she said to Elliott. "It is the longest
way," and he said, "Of course," for El-
liott always agreed with Miss Carruth.
It was riding h'onso by the Willow road
that Elliott chanced to see a sign tacked
to a true near a farm gate, "This Farm
For Sale at a Sacrifice." Suddenly he re-
membered the $4,000. Tho house was
away back from the road, there were a
neat hodg 'on one side and a grape arbor
and a few giant elms—quito a handsome
country place. Why shouldn't Ito put his
money in this farm? He would if it was
a good' investment. He would notify
Brooks.
That was how Elliott Raymond came to
buy a farm. A distant cousin was brought
from the west somewhere and installed
thereon, while tho former owners—well,
Elliott didn't know what became of the
former owners. Cousin Johfd wrote El-
liott that the farm was in an excellent
state of cultivation. Be was going to sow
such and such fields with wheat and re-
serve others for white oats, and would El-
liott kindly have the florist send a lot of
bulbs for fall planting. Elliott carefully
attended to every request, and he used to
tell Miss Carruth all *shout it as they
drove out to the football gatnoon his drag,
"Brooks has sent enough plants, and
things for Cousin Margaret to plant the
entire farm," he said laughingly. Miss
Carruth was such a sensible girl. She
liked to hear About his farm, he know, and
always seemed so interested.
Truth to tell, Gertrude Carruth had
hoped—she acknow ledged it to herself bold-
ly—that Elliott Raymond would someday
ask her to share his fortunes, his interests,
wherever they might be. She did not care
about the fortune in itself. She looked
straight in her mirror one night and told
herself so. "I wouldn't care if be hadn't
a penny," she said. "He is the best man
I know."
At Mrs. Westerleigh's dinner Miss Car-
ruth was sure Elliott had something in
particular to say to her. They were in
the oonsorvatory—she sitting on a rustic
seat and he loaning on the edge of a mar-
ble basin watching the goldfishes swim-
ming about. Nelther had spoken for some
time, and she felt when ho did speak it
would be something she would wish to
bear. She pulled a red rose from a branch
near her.
It is beautiful, isn't it?" he said tak-
ing it from her fingers, "It is a crimson
rambler. I ata going to have a lot of them
sent down to the farm in the spring " He
threw away the fragrant white flower from
his buttonhole and put the rose in its
plane. Tho spell was broken—the farm
had done it, Miss Carruth thought bitter-
ly—and they walked back to the drawing
room.
Spring came, summer pissed and the
Flint valley hunts were once more oaten -
dared. Elliott sent Blank Boss down to
the farm and ho followed by train one Oo-
tober night when it was just chilly enough
for a small blaze in the big fireplace. It
was his visit to his own faun.
The hunt was at 8 o'olock, with the
hunt breakfast four miles away, and as
Elliott rode Black Bess through the lane
he noticed how beautifully the lawns were
kept. A few chrysanthemums were begin-
ning to show their colors and a bed of
pink and white cosmos, that flower that
never blooms until touched by frost,
flaunted fairy faces at him in the sharp
wind.
"I will come down here and stay all
next summer," Elliott said to himself as
Blank Boss took the front gate and dashed
away toward Tho Laurels. •
Again Miss Carruth was the leader of
the chase and again Elliott rode by her
side on the slaw .return.
"You are Doming to luncheon with us?'
eke said as they tamed along the willow
road.
"Yes. °' And he looked at his watch. "We
are early. Will you stop at the fa and
rnoet Cousin Margaret? I'd like ou to
Mee the place."
The girl was pleased that he wanted to
show her his farm. They entered the
hones titlanrionneed, and as they passed
through the wide old hall they hoard coins
one singing a low, quaint old air to the
mimics of the piano. fr'hej paused st
