Qvnlal Philosopher Provsd That H«
Had Collage Professor's Record
Beaten te a Frazzle.
"There's romance for you," said lit-
tle Blnks, puttlnc aside his morning
paper. "This paper has a story of a
college professor who met a beautiful
girl twenty years old, fell Id love with
her at first sight, and then lost sight
of her altogether. Now, after waiting
10 years, he is rewarded by leading
her to the altar as his bride. Juat
think of K, waiting 20 years for a
wife."
"What ef It?" asked the &enial phil-
osopner. "There's nothing extraordi-
nary about that. I've waited 3K year*
for mine."
"You? Waited 35 ybarsT Why, I
thought you'd been married that long,"
said little Blnks.
"I have," said the genial philosopher.
"That's how I know how long I'ra
waited. I've waited for her to get her
gloves on about three years. I've wait-
ed for her to change her hat about
four j ears. I've waited while ehe said
Juat one last word to the cook for at
least five yean; I've waited upstairs;
I've waited downstairs; I've waited at
church; I've waited at the theater,
and I have waited In cav9, omnibuses,
taxies, motor cars and the Lord knows
what else besides. Pact Is, Blnksy,
I've waited so long, so often and so
regularly that between you and roe
that little college professor of you.e,
with ouly oue wait at 20 years, strikes
me as a miserable little piker."—

■lids of Llteratur*.
The world emits a Shakespeare, a
melley or Ooethe but seldom. We
cannot eapeet every decade to produce
a poetl* genius. But what we are
hearing 1b our literary world today la
perkape Just as remarkable as though
there came a gush of exquisite mel-
from isme master singer. It la
a shorus of expert rhymsters many ti
them worthy of a frame they will not
achieve, but which would surely have
been theirs had they lived fifty or a
hundred yoars ago. These are the
poets who chant or chirp In the maga-
Mnes or the columns of the daily pa-
yor. They may not be nightingale^
or gifted with the divine sweetness
of Shelley's skylark, but they are
songsters all the same.
Admirable Guides for Conduct Set
Forth In His "Provisional Self-
Government."
In the discourse of Descartes upon
"The Method of Using One's Reason
Rightly," he says that he had always
had an Intense desire to learn how to
distinguish truth from falsehood in
order that he might be clear about his
actions and That he might be able to
walk surefootedly In this life. . .
Therefore he resolved to set up what
be termed "a provisional self-govern-
ment," of which these were to be the
rules. I give the rules as somewhat
broadly paraphrased by Mr. Huxley:
First—That he would submit him-
self to the laws and religion in which
be bad been brought up.
Second—That he would act, on all
occasions which called for action,
promptly and according to the best
of his Judgment.
Third—That he would seek happi-
ness In limiting his desires rather
than In attempting to satisfy them.
Fourth—That he would make the
search after truth the business of hi*
life.
Descartes was Just coming of age
when he laid down for himself these
rules of life.—From "Personal Power,"
hy William Jewett Tucker.
O THE DAYS GONE BY!
Harry Hampton Williams
<J the lift)s gone by! O the days gone by!
The rambling i" the thioKot \vli«.n the wild plums gr.<w,
The disturbing of theorioUet and his happy tu-ra-lu.
Tin- oooing of tin* ring-dove in the shady wood-recess
And the lu-ait.a thrill with rapture as it feels the sweet oar '*n
Of tli - breeze aero-is the meadow where the lazy cattle lie,
O the days gone by! O the days gone by!
The domineo.Wer crowing in the golden blush of morn,
The whistling of the plowboy and the rustling of the corn,
The drifting of the snow banns in the sunny fields of blue,
The shady path from meeting for a bonnie girl and you,
And the cloud of jolly blaonbirds swirling through the s«y.
O the days gone by! O the days g-me by!
1 he waving of the willows where the meadow streams run —
And ever sweet oasis in the glorv of the sun •
The twitter of the blue bird and the chatter of the jay,
The yellow hammer resting form the ravage i.f the day
\..d the tainted corn a bobbing where the shadows thinnest lie.
