GOOD IN POVERTY
Mr. Gosfrngton Does a Uttto
Philosophizing.
8ee# Much Benefit in the N?c???itj
to Work and Aleo |n the Worry
Which Falle to the Lot of
Majority of Mankind.
"(Jllmmerhy, my friend (iliuuncrby,"
nald Mr. (ioHllOKtoik, "propounds Un
til oo ry that hoth poverty and worry
ure conducive U> longevity; and i
think 1 1 hi*' is something in that. i
am not no Mire, about the worry, and
yet I liilnk even that may be true. 1
can see, for Instance, that if a man
worried hard euough lie would keep
himself lean and ho escape the Ills und
Inconvenience* uttendant Upon obesi
ty; hut tiiat poverty tends to lengthen
life I have uo doubt whutever.
"The man who is poor, as we moat
of us are, has to work for a living.
Surely it is iti work that we are most
blessed; and tf we have work to do In
which we are interested, that appeals
to us, then are we fortunate Indeed;
we tlnd a pleasure in lalfc>r and a Joy
iu accomplishment ; and It makes me
smile to think how In such work we
forget our worries entirely.
"So we don't really need to consid
er whether worry Is a life prolonger
or not; all we want to lengthen our
days Is to be poor, poor enough ho
that we have to work and keep 'plug
ging; but I do wonder that Gllminerby
did not mention along with poverty
jiml worry, aji among the things thut
might fend to prolong life, our physi
cal aliments.
"Some years ago a friend of mine
began to lose weight and he kept on
In that way until lie had lost
pounds. Then be consulted a doctor.
It was something that could be check
ed, controlled and perhaps entirely
cured If the patient would follow faith
fully the prescribed treatment; and
then In* wiih told that the general bene
fit/* he would derive from the Ueut
inciit were such thut his life might he'
prolonged to ii greater limit than It
would have reached if he bad never
had this ailment at all.
"I might add that this friend has
now regained several of hi.s lost
pounds, he is feeling very chipper and
cheerful atnl he fully expects to live
r<> he a very old man.
"The fact Is that many things that
?we ma\ look at. when they come upon
u*. us drawbacks are in reality blesa
, lugs in disgUise."
Australians Well Off.
In no part-of the* world is there a I
population apparently better fed and j
better provided vviih the ordinary '
necessaries of life than in Australia
and New Zealand. Thore Is an ab
sence of indicatiops of poverty, and In
the cities slums are rare. On the
streets there is a healthy, bustling 1
population of a type more like the
dwellers In the cities of the middle
West than those of London or Liver
pool. The visitor recognizes the self
reliant spirit of a pimple detached from
the rest of the world who have their
own problems to solve, and are pe
culiarly ready to accept luriovnttonS.
There Is a great fondness for sports,
football, tennis, surf bathing, which Is
possible nil the year round In portions
of Am* rutin, nnd, most of all, for
horse racing, in connection with which
there is a great amount of gambling,
which the state sanctions by taking a
certain percentage of the sales In the
pool rooms.? Exchange.
Old Rome Has Paper Shortage.
I.e Figaro of Paris has unearthed
for Its readers what It believes Is the
wurlil's first recorded paper shortage.
It quotes from the "<"n userles du
Fundi" where Salnte-IleuvH, translat
ing from Pliny, soys that under Tibe
rius thorp was such n scarcity of pa
per In the Roman empire that It was
necessary to appoint senators to regu
late distribution ; In other words, a
congressional board of control.
Salnte-Beuve, grown cynical in his
da.v of excessive erudition, books, Ink
find paper, added :
"How welcome such a shortage
would bo now ! Hut such things hap
pened only under nbcrlns. We can
not hope for like happiness today."
Le Figaro finds Salnte-Ileuve re
freshing reading, but In View of the
Pit nation In Wjo, unduly appreciative
of Tiberius.

In 18.'11, dragged on In desultory fash

this country. British opinion was di
vided. Queen Christina finding support
among the Whigs. I ion Carlos among
the lories. Both armies were accused
of committing atrocities, so the Times
and the Morning I'ost sent correspoud
cuts to t be Cnrilst ennip with instruc
tions to find .out bow the war was
really being carried on. Capt. Ilen
nlngsen, who represented the Times,
was an admirable writer and a profes
sional soldier, whereas Charles Gru
neiaeti, who went on behalf of the
Post, possessed no military experience.
Still, lie proved the more successful'
of the two, for I lenningsen's letters
never reached the Times, Gruneisen's,
on itbe other hand, appeared in the
Morning I'ost, and on this rests tin*
