prices this fall not toadvance as they did last year.Now is the inve

vear's land will go much higher. Others think as we do. An
ere are two orders recently placed with us by two men fron
ther counties, and the kind of men this county needs:
First. A farm. within easy reach-of a high school and goo
hurches, properly improved and costing from five to ten thousan
ollars.
Second. A farm of from one to two hundred acres, withi

If you can't pay cash we will help you to bor-ow the none.

'THE GRUATETES
ideas and Inspiration Taken by
One Author From Another.
BUT GENIUS BORROWS NOBLY
The Crude Ore Is Refined and the Raw
Material Fashioned into a Thing of
Beauty-Shakespeare as a Most Bril
liant Example.
Our great writers are not great rob
bers. Literature is not a repository of
stolen goods. What seem like steal
lngs by the steel pen are rather the
output of the lapidar-y or a reissue of
the mint or, better still, the borrow
ings from a bank repaid with interest.
"It is wonderful," says Charles
Reade, "how genius can borrow." "All
literature," remarks Oliver Wendell
Holmes, "lives by borrowing and lend
ing," and, he adds, '"A good image is
like a diamond, which may be set a
hundred times in as many generations
and gain new beauties with erm-:y
change." This Is not a question of
origInality. '"The lightIng a canudle
at a neighbor's fire," observes Dean
Swift, "does not affect our property in
the wick and flame." "Genius bor
rows nobly." The transference is
often a transmutation. For brass, the
borr-ower brings gold, and for iron,
silver, and for wood, brass, and for
stones, iron. The eide ore is refined
and the raw material fashioned into
a thing of beauty.
It has been pointed out by Mr. Huth
in his "Life of Buckle" that there is a
kind of pedigree in literature. Dante
avows his indebtedness to Virgil, as
the latter himself was under obliga
tions to Homer.
Ariosto owes much to Virgil, and
Spenser borrows frequently from
Ariosto. Spenser's "Faerle Queene"
.gave birth to Fletcher's "Purple Is
land," and this to Bernard's "Isle of
Man," and this in turn to Defoe's
"Robinson Crusoe" and Bunyan's
"Pilgrim's Progress"-all like so nmany
blossoms rising from the one stem..
Shakespeare has been called -"the
great Warwickshire thief," so inveter
ate is his borrowing habit He invaded
literature like a Napoleon and brought
back the rarest art treasures to enrich
and beautify his verse. One Is sur
prised to learn that our dramatist has
no original plots, that he has given to
poetry, no new rhythm or stanza and
that "he ran not only In the old road,
but in the old ruts." His "As You
Like It" is taken from an old romance.
The characters of his "Julius Caesar"
are old Romans taken from Plutarch.
But what borrowing! Dry bones are
turned into living men. The common
est materials are taken into the lam
bent flame of his genius and transmut
ed into airy beauty.
Milton, too, is a free borrower. It is
this fact,.indeed, that makes his verse
so rich in learned reminiscence and so
gorgeous with "barbaric pearl and
gold." He owes much to Shakespeare.
Some critics think Milton's Eve is bor
rowed from Shakespeare's Miranda. In
the "Taming of the Shrew" occurs the
line:
As morning roses newly washed in dew.
While Milton in "T'Allegro" speaks
of
Fresh blown roses washed in dew.
Milton is a very mIne to many. Pope
is his debtor. Milton's '"Smoky Sor
ceress"-a woman to the waist and
fair, but "ending foul in many a scaly
fold voluminous and vast"-is made to
say, "They call me sin and for a sign
portentous hold me; but, familiar
grown, I pleased and with attractive
graces won the most averse." Pope
sings:
Vice is a monster of so frightful mien
As to be hated needs but to be seen;
But seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.
Tennyson must have had in ulipd
Milton's
Hanging in a golden chain
This pendent world
when he wrote:
The whole round world is every way
Bound by geld chains about the feet of
God.
Tennyson, indeed, derives much of his
exquisite imagery and felicitous phras
ing from authors whose names, even.
many literary men do not know.
Pope borrows his "Vital Spark" Idea
from an old poem by Thomas Fiatman.
Byron gets his "Eagle Feather" im
age in his "English Bards and Scotch
Reviewers" from Aeschylus, who flour
ished In the fifth century before ourg
era.
Coleridge owes his "Ode to Mont
Blanc" to a German poem by Friedrich
Brown.
Bishop Ken is Indebted for his
thought in "The Evening Hymn" to
Sir Thomas Browne In his "Colloquy
WIth God."
In his own characteristic manner
Rudyard Kipling has met the ques
tion of unconscious thievery with a
bit of verse which commences:
When 'Omer smote 'Is bloomin' lyre
'E'd 'card men sing by land and sea.
And wot 'e thought 'e might require
'E went an' took the same as me.
Let Shakespenre's lines close this
paper:
I'll example you with thievery:
The sun's a thief, and with his great at
traction
Rtobs the vast sea; the moon's an arsrant
thief,
And her pale fire she snatches from tho
sun;
The sea's a thief, whose liquid surge re
solves
The moon into salt tears; the earth's a
thief
That feeds and breeds by a composture
-stolen
From general excrement; each thing's a
thief.
-S. B. Dunn in Circle Magazine.
Mercy to him that shows it is the
rule.-Cowper
Those wvho have stomach troudle, no
matter how slight, should give every
possible help to the digestive organs,
so that the food may be digested with
the least effort. This may be done by
taking something that contains natural
digestive properties-something like
Kodol For Indigestion and Dyspepsia.
Kodol is a preparation of vegetable acid
and contains the very same juices found
in a healthy stomach. It digests what

Elephants.
People who really know nothing
about it nsed to say that elephants
never lie down to sleep. This is not
true at all, says one writer. They have
been known to stand for twelve
months without lying down to sleep.
This is regarded as want of confidence
in their keepers and of longing to re
gain their liberty, for when they are
perfectly at ease and reconciled to
their fate they will lie down on their
sides and sleep peacefully.

Superlatives.
Dr. Johnson says In his "Grammar o!
the English Tongue," "The comparisor
of adjectives is very uncertain and,
being much regulated by commodious
ness of utterance, is not easily re
duced to rules."
Then he quotes passages from "Para
dise Lost" in which the words "virtu
ousest" and "powerfullest" are found
and a passage from "Samson Agon
istes" which contains the word "fa
-mousest."

Tough Fare.
In a New Zealand town one of the
municipal candidates, a pronounced
Scotsman, had received a present of a
huge Scotch thistle, which at the mo
ment happened to be lying on the ta
ble of his committee room. A friend,
entering, withdrew suddenly, with the
remark: "I beg your pardon. I didn't
know you were at luncheon."
Too, Too Much.
"Thank you, son," said old Tightfist
to the boy who had run several blocks
on an errand for him. "Here's a penny

A Hopeless Case.
A Scottish paper tells a story of an
old Scottish woman who was "unco'
drouthie," without- the money to buy
"a drapple." "Lassie," she said to
her little granddaughter, "gang round
to )onald McCallum and bring me a
gill. Tell him I'll pay him ' the morn
ng."
Back came the child with a refusal.
Donald declined to part with his whis
ky without the cash. Eager and frri
tated, the old, woman east about for
some means of "raising the wind," and
her eye fell upon the family Bible.
"Here, lassie," she said, "gte him this
and tell him to keep it until I bring
him the siller." Off went the little
girl, but she soon returned, still car
rying the Bible. Donald was obdurate.
"He says he mnaun hae the baubees
first, granny."
In anger the disappointed grand
mother threw up her hands and ei
elamed: "Losh, did onybody ever hear
the like o' that! The man will neither
tak my word nor the word o' God for

these qualities never shone to
greater advantage than on the
famous occasion of his dealing
with the refractory washerwomnen
of Malliol.
These worthy bamnes struck for
higher wages in one department.
Twelve collars for a shilling was
the statutory price. They came
to present their claim to the mas -
'-The washerwomnen have come
to see you," said the butler.
"Show the ladies up," said the
master. They clumped into the
room, to find him poking the fire.
He turned around.
"Will you wash twelve collars
for a shilling?" he asked quietly.
They began to expostulate.
He touched the bell; in came the
butler.
"Show the ladies down,"
Presently the butler appeared
again.
"They seem very sorry, sir
would like to see you again.'
Show them up."
The washerwomen found the
master iutent. as before, on the
fire grate.
"Will you wash twelve collars
fo- a shilling?"piped his cherry
little voice.
A stalwart speaker began to
make explanations. He touched
the bell.
"Show these ladies down," he
said, and down they went. Aga
in the butler reppeared,expr'ess
ing a hope that the master would
see the women again.
"Certainly. Show them up."
They entered the doom for the
third time.
"Will you wash twelve collars
for a shillinlg?"
"We will!" they cried.
"Thank you-good day, good

the time of the arrival of the train be

two stations involved in such. a mes

as between the number of the train

error, and in writing the message.
these two sets of numerals should be
separated by the name of the- road.
Taking the ten word message as the
standard of length, then, any person

A PAPR.f OF PINS.
Pins were iptroduced in the sis
tenth century.
Then they were costly and highly
prized as gifts.
A paper of pins was more acceptable
than a bouquet.
An act was passed In 1543 makin It
illegal to charge more than eightpence
a thousand for metal pins.
-Persons of quality often used pins
made of boxwood, bone and silver,
while the poor put up with wooden
skewers.
In those day husbands were often
surprised at the great amount of mon:
ey that went for pins; hence the term
"pin money."
Not so many years ago the frugal
American housewife was wont to teach
pin economy by teac~'ug her children
