When meminded that the senate, as
a body, is sadly lacking in hnmm-,.
and needed livening- ip, Mr. Twain
said. smilingly:
'"Well, as v"alstaty to the senate. 1
gness 1 could till the hill and earn my
salary lIht as a ) representative of
the people I would be certain tA prove
Aead titiebr."
it can't humorists he serions as
well as other mortals. Mr. Twain?"
oiMost assuredly. There is no man
alive -ot even exceptingi a Scot eh
1,1Ibyterian niniste'-who can he
more serions than 1. lnt as a sena
tor the people would refuse to -take
me any more seriously than they do
in my natural capacity as a hnmorist.
and I don't care to make an Anat
tractive exhibition of myself. It's a
humorist 's business to lan1h at other
l'olks. not inspire other folks to lan-h
at him."
Mr. Twain is now writing his auto
biography. He started on the book or
aannarv 9it, he said. and has now 100.
M0 words of it completed
cae of the skin.
The importance of the skin as an
organ is as a rule overlooked. It is
most often regarded as - a kin-! of
protective covering and is frepent
ly abused because it is the sent of
manyv annoying diseases. But th<
skin is more than a mre prtetive
eoverI, of the body. It is an import
ant organ of secretion and e retion.
as well as being~ the org'an Ithn: con
ains the sense of toneh. 'Mat; is al
most the only one 0f G~od' crieatu re's
born without some nat ural 'overin,c
and protect ion for the skin. Cloth,

this deficiency. 11 is a mistiak e to tr
to e'tdeure cold weat her without wear
ing antliciently warm elothimz. When
ever a l'eeling~ of cold or e:h i!iess is
exp'erienced it is highly proir t a put
on ant extra garment without delay,
and ithis folly to wait until the hody'

Endowed Newspapers.
Fourth E,state.
Dear to the heart of the social re
former is the idea of an endowed
newspaper. a pure and lofty publien
tion that need not work for its living,
hut. rvlieved from the grinding neces,
sity of making ends meet, is at liberty
to tke -an uenlightened public by
'the haud and lead it in paths of
ri teousness. Commercialisi, we
are told, fetters the press and pre
vents its highest development as a
power for 'education and good morals.
It is assumed that a newspaper that
did not have to bother with such sor
did details as cireulation and adver
tising could be more useful than one
conducted as a business enterprise.
Until some philanthopist makes the
exp1eriiment the question must stay
unsetited, and it might not be settled
.even then. But one thoneht obtrudes
itself, a paper published solely for
the mlental and moral elevation of its
reaiders ight if it had readers enouigh
ad o' the righ11t sort. he a' valnable
advertising medium. In that ease it
would need no endowment to keep it
goin. If. on the other hand, the en
dowed paper did not compare favor
ably in interest and practical value
with its mercenary contemporaries
peop)le would not read it and the
money spent on it would be wasted.
