Days Lavish In Their Donations to Their Fa- ' vorlte Cities, "Many a man who has inherited mil- lions.” once said Frederic Harrison, "is gnawed with envy as he watches a practical mail turning an honest penny. How he, would like to earn an honest.penny! He fieveV did; he nev­ er will; and he feels like a dyspeptic invalid watching a hearty beggar en­ joying a bone or a crust. Many a' rich man Is capable of better things; 1 .t he doeB not know how to begin!"

A ; . It always re -1 mnlned a public office, a duty to be filled by taste, skill, personal effort and public spirit. Rich men contend­ ed for the office. The chief ambition of a rich man came to be that of mak­ ing splendid gifts to his fellow citi­ zens, and theaters, stadiums, colon­ nades, aqueducts, gardens, libraries, museums, pictures, statues—all were showered upon favorite - cities by wealthy men who 'possessed ‘or covet­ ed the name of citizen.” , A few mul­ timillionaires in our American repub­ lic have made public benefactions.

There is a certain public man in Washington long noted for his quaint Wit. One day last winter, when the sidewalks were quite slippery by rea­ son of a fall of sleet that morning, this official and his wifo were proceed­ ing down a thoroughfare carefullj picking their way, Just ahead of thorn was a little foreigner, a member of one of the'legations, who was having Just as much''difficulty as they in keeping on his feet, Finally the lit­ tle fellow Slipped and fell, but hot with sufficient force to injure him. His dignity, however, received a fright­ ful shock, for be sprawled over the pavement in the moat ludicrous way. The lady could not restrain a smile, perceiving which the irate foreigner, as soon as he had picked himself up, rushed.,forward tnd presented the offi­ cial with his nard. Thfe recipient looked the cars’ over very carefully. “Beg pardon,'' said ho; "bjit why am I thus favored?" "Your ladee here," raged the for­ eigner, "she laugh at me as 1 fall! I, sir, 1 demand the satisfaction!" The American gently handed back' the card. "I’d like to oblige you, my dear sir," said he, “but I think you’ve addressed the wrong party, L would suggest that you go to this lady’s brother Ahd demand of him the satis­ faction you seek.

Now a rather lively local discussion has arisen as to whether the mlnislei was .justified under the circumstances, o r whether anybody Is ever Justified under any circumstances, In. telling a lie' Perhaps few will deny that If thU minister really lied at all he strained the truth in a good cuubo and that, the imposition practiced upon those who refused to give to another the chance of reform which they themselves would have welcomed In their own - 0 «#es was Intended to serve a humane purpose; All Who are inclined to take an ultra conservative view, of the In* violahility of truth might ponder tho splendid words of Dickens when he wrote Tom Pinch and the lie that he did only good to another human be­ ing: .: "There are some falsehoods, Tom, on which men. mount, as on bright wings, to heaven. There are truths, cold, bitter, taunting truths, that bind men down to earth, Who would, not rather have to fan him in his dying hour the lightest feather of a false­ hood such as tblhe, than nil the quills plucked from , the sharp porcupine, revengeful truth, since Time began?" —Kansas City Journal.

During a severe drought in a cer­ tain section of Australia, the owner ot a country station was sitting one eve­ ning on tho porch when ho saw a kangaroo lingering about, alternately, approaching and retiring from the bouse, as if half In doubt and fear what to do.—- " " At length, she ,approached the wa­ ter palls, and, taking a young one from her porch, held It to the water to drink. While her baby was satisfying Its thirst the mother was quivering alt over with apprehension, for she was but a few feet from the porch where one of her foes was watching her. The baby having finished drinking, It was replaced in the pouch and tho old kangaroo set off at a rapid pace. The spectator was so much Impress, ed by tho astonishing bravery of the affectionate mother that he made a vow—and kept it—never again to shoot a kangaroo. -Eccentric Tides.

Last year, at the Ohio State Fair, a fanner purchased one hog that paid his expenses to Columbua several times over,' besides improving the breed of hogs in his neighborhood. A city man who owned a farm, while in the great Agricultural Hall at the State Fair in 1910, discovered a var­ iety of com that added several bush­ els to his yield per acre in 1911. He -made more than the legal rate of In­ terest on the money which he spent by coming to Ohio’s big Exposition. The State Fair is a great picture, painted by the brush of toil and skill, dipped in brain and sweat. Some farmers farm because they have to, while, others farm because fanning pays. Some business men are in business because .they can’t get out; others are ,in business because they are making money. Few of us work for our health. Many .a patriot is a friend of the dear people, at their ex­ pense. The Exposition helps every branch, of business and tends to add to the profits of human endeavor. The State.
