A member of the Cleveland school
council in commending certain nomin
ationg for the public library ward,
said: "Men who are very busy were
preferred, it being the consensus of
opinion that they would devote more
time to the work than others." The
member who said thi is a woman,
but the good sense is worthy of a
man. It is worthy of a man so busy
that he has time to think. Habitual
leisure is a result, not of conditions
or chance environment, but of a man's
qualities and characteristics. It Is an
unmistakable symptom of inherent
laziness. The man who Is not busy
with affairs of his own will not get
busy with affair of the public. The
mainspring of enthused energy that is
weak in the one case will lie weak in
the other. There is a common Impres
sion that to acquire titness for a
library board a man must lead a life
of leisure. Nothing could be further
from the truth. The man of leisure Is
not tit for anything. Even the wide
reading that "makes a full man" is
done by the men who are busy. Tiii
panoramic view of the world of book
is given only to the mind that Is broad
and d'vp. and no mind is this that is
not active, and diversified in ,ts activ
ity. In the literary end as well as
In the business end of library manage
ment inactivity mia:is stagnation, and
stagnation is decay. The: man of leis
ure is mere rotting driftwood, I'n
dtTStnnding, judgment, tact, intuition,
to be true and clear, must have activ
ity at the fountain head, just as
streams that are purest and coolest
come of never-ceasing springs. The
life that is not busy is not win levonie
or healthy, mentally, morally or physi
cally. "Spent man." There Is , aching
pathos in tiat phrase. How did so
ciology ever manage to wander so far
from arid intellect and come so mar
to damp emotion? "f-'peiitmau'' is the
classification they employ at the mun
icipal lodging house for the una whose
vital spark has sunk so low that there
is little hope of its ever being reviv
ed. This does not mean that the man
will die. He may live many years.
But he will live as the ship lives that
with no coal and no steam, drifts to
meet its last storm. What makes
"spent men"? "The chief assigned
cause." says Mr. Uobins, superintend
ent of the municipal lodging house, "is
child labor." Read two of the entries
in the lodging house record: " ,
21 years old. Began work when 13 for
the Queen City Cotton Company;
worked steadily for five years. Kceim-d
discouraged. Low vitality. Worker
as common laborer two days. Gave
up. Passed on." " - -----'.'2 year
old, Pennsylvania. Began work at U,
dog in glass works; steady four years;
gave out; restaurant work three years;
tramping since; power gone; passec
on." There are many more records
like these. They confirm what Jane
Addams Raid long ago about the con
nection between a certain kind of child
labor and a certain kind of vagrancy

only feel Ir, a blind, hunted way, thai

The amount of food consumed in
the royal household Is truly prodiyio.ia
and consequently the most spacious
larders are necessary to coutain it,
says Pears n' Weekly. As a mat
er of fact, the larders, cellars and
dairies cover an area of nearly a quar
ter of an acre.
At all the king's residence's except
Buckingham palace the bread is pro
duced in the royal bakeries and when
the king and his suite ane staying at
Wiiuisor an average of nearly two
sae-ks of flour a day is converted into
bread by the five bakers In tin; house
hold. There are six bakings a week,
and as the loaves leave the oven they
are stored in the underground pan
tries. A great deal of cake and con
fectionery Is also made daily, but the
king shows a preference feu- a light
freodcake which is dispatched every
day from a small shop in the high
lands. It Is somewhat surprising to learn
that approximately a ton of meat is
consumed every week at Windsor, a
geod deal of which conies from the
king's farm at Sandringlmm. So vari
ed is the meat supply that his majesty
eould, if lie witdied, be served with
almost any joint he desired at nn
hour's notice, though it is very i rarely
he selects anything not found in tins
kitchen. The meat, ou arrival, Is stor
ed in the ice-houses and e ut up by
the king's butchers.
Saiulringhain also supplies the royal
dairies with a large amount eif but
ter and eggs, which are dispatched
from the king's Norfolk home d.iily.
The butter is sent In quarter pound
pats, fitampi'd with the crown. Eigh
teen gallons of new milk alone are
consumed at Windsor every day, be
sides an eepial proportion of ithui, A
great deal of the ebe-ese comes, from

ART OF BATTING THE BALL.
Bremakan, the Giaota' R-t (Utter,

Confidence and good eye are the prin

pe,ss-?s if he wishes to become a gexjd

judge from the location of the oppos
ing fielders whm they expe-e-t ;he man
at the bat to lilt the ball. The man
who stand close to the plate while at
the bat and bears In mind that every
pitcher, no mutter who he is er what
his reputation may be, must put the

tie-e. become a good and, I may say, n
dangerous hitter, even- if he ha not

One ve-ry lad fault many young
players have is the habit of pulling

when a bail looks as though It might
possibly hit the batter. How many
titties have you seen a man step back
from a curvevl ball which a second
afle-r "cut the plate'' and was ciilbd a
slrike, mui-h to his dlse:oiuforture?
The reim-dy for this, I think, is a elm
ple one, which can be maslered by
ony young man poesslng Uie ne;es
tmry confidence; It Is simply to step
forward ai:d meet the ball be-foie It
e-reisses tbe plate. In this way the bail
Is always in front of flic batter, and he
