" as hovas called in Ireland , was senteacinsr a man to death foi stealing a Avatch , he said : "My good fellow , you made a grasp at time and caught eternity. " Nothing seemed to please Lord Xor bury more than the continual uproar in court , created by his puns. ' "What is your occupation , my honest man ? " he asked a witness. "Please , your lordship , I Iicep a racket c.ourt. " "So do 1/4 said the judge. When Lord Xorbury was bciu-i buried , the grave was so deep that the ropes by which the undertaker was let ting down the coffin didn't reach to the bottom. The coffin was left hanging midway while somebody went for new ropes. "Aye , " cried one in the crowd , "give him rope enouerh : don't stint him. no was the boy that never grudged rope to a poor body. " l Econcrr.y.

It is a harm less and fascinating pursuit for those who can afford it. but a poor man has no business to fritter away his time and substance on such extravagances. Women are particularly addicted to it and often become so skillful that they aru able to get through January with out encroaching on their April allow ance. Men who have such wives arc naturally very proud of them and are willing to redouble their efforts , if nec essary , in order to provide them with the means to develop the habit Life. Proof of Martian Life. That life is in Mars is founded onm assumption , but on inasceJ evidence that is conclusive , and the reader should realize that opposition to the idea that we now have proof of life on Mars is not based on reason , but on emotion , however speciously cloaked. All scientilie objections have been met and shown untenable as to tempera ture , snow , etc. . but human prejudice , as with the Copcrnican system or the origin of species , time alone can dispel.
