Mr. Hare's Fountain of Yoath. .
Mr. John Hare, the eminent English
actor-manager. Haiti tlint the most de
lightful compliment lie ever received
was from Mr. Gladstone. It was a
double ended compliment. Whichever
way you took It It was satisfactory.
Mr. llare earned fame playing old
men's parts, his character as Mr. Gold-
by in “A Pair of Spectacles” being a
good example. Added to this was a
horror of having his picture taken.
Mr. Gladstone had never seen a pic
ture of the actor, but he knew him well
behind the scenes as well as before the
footlights. The premier's favorite ploy
was “A Pair of Spectacles.” and he al
ways went behind the scenes to chat
awhile with the actor. The really old
man and the made up old man would
sit there and talk In the most delight
ful way for an hour after the show.
One day the Earl of Rosebery had
Mr. Gladstone to dinner, and he also
Invited his friend. John Hare. The
actor came In smooth shaved, looking
about 3ft. He was presented to Mr.
Gladstone, and the prime minister
shook his band most cordially and snld:
“My dear sir, I am very, very glad to
meet you. 1 know your father very,
very well. Splendid actor! Fine old
man!”
It took the whole evening for the earl
and Mr. Hare to convince him that this
son was really the father.—Saturday
Evening Post.
An Educational Mistake.
Whether or uot a college education Is
advantageous depends entirely upon
the ability of the recipient to nbsorb
and utilize such an education. Un
fortunately such a view of the case Is
seldom considered by parents nnd
guardians who are Inclined to send
their children to college simply be
cause It Is considered the proper thing
to do. Consequently we find through
out the country thousands of young
men who have passed through college
actltfg as cheap clerks, bookkeepers or
even as car conductors nnd restaurant
waiters. Having learned uo mechan
ical trade for which they may be adapt
ed and being unfitted by nature for a
profession, they go through life discon
tented with their lot and vaguely be
lieving that the world owes them bet
ter treatment because they have goue
through college.—Los Angeles Times.
The Appeal lo Hie Iteeord.
Little Tommy returned sore and
trembling from the torture room.
"Doesn’t your papa ever thrash
you?" he asked his chum, who is the
son of a cabinet minister.
”1 should sav not!” replied the other
loftily. "Every time he threatens to
cane me I read him an extract from
his great peace at any price speech In
which he said: 'These barbarians are
like wayward children, but have we on
that account the right to take away
their heaven sent privilege to do as
they please? Let us treat them as we
would our own wayward children—
plead with them, beseech them, but
never coerce them with either gun or
rod.’ ”
"That’s a good deal to remember,” re
marked Tommy.
“Yes, but now lie’s got so used to it
that he drops the cane ns soon ns 1
start."—London Answers.

I do not allude to what are obviously
mere misprints, such as when The

Its fashionable Intelligence that Lord
Palmerston had gone down Into Hamp
shire with a party of tUMids to shoot
peasants, but 1 refer to blunders due to
crass Ignorance of a pretentious order.
Perhaps the best Instance was when
one of the "youug lions" of The Daily

ignorant of the fact that Milo is uot a
sculptor, but an Island.

“The college roommate of a friend of
mine was engaged to a lady In New
York,” writes the Rev. D. M. Steele I11
his article on "Some People l Have
Married” lu The Ladies’ Home Jour
nal. “Ills people are Congregatlonal-
Ists, but while at Yale he became
Unitarian. Her parents are Roman
Catholics, but she was a member of the
Ethical Culture society at Carnegie
hall. In compliance with her mother’s
wish he asked five different priests to
marry them, but all refused. In despair
be came for me. I married them, an
Episcopalian, with the ritual service lu
a Presbyterian chapel. The Roman
Catholic brother of the bride and the
Congregational sister of the groom
were present. This sister acted as one
witness; the other wltuess was a Jew
ess.”
