It Is related that Professor AgnsHh
m response to a request to lecture for a
very handsome fee declined replying
I urn too busy to make money Such
people hnve not yet died out Tho
French explorer Mnrehnnd Is of the
same kind Asked to lecture by an
American he declines a munlllcent of
fer My wants are few he says and
bo adds that If ho could lecturo ho
would give all tho money ho earned to
benellcenco Then there Is General
Leonard Wood who though offered
many times more than the amount of
his salary as governor general of San
tiago to accept a position with a big
New York corporation turned a deaf

preferlng rather at a great financial
Bncrlllce to answer the call of duty

Tho Two Glasses a Night club has
been formed at Ulvurstoiio England
a suinll town which Is said to contain
more hard drinkers than any placo of
Its size In the United Kingdom Tho
club started off with a great flour
ish of trumpets and nearly every
mother and wife lu tho placo was Its
warm friend Tho organization has
mot with such success however that
many of Its former well wishers are
now anxious to have it discontinued
for the very novel reason that while
It Is a mighty good thing for the fel
lows who were in the habit of taking
n dozen glasses a night It has been a
thoroughly bad thing for tho chaps
who were wont to take not more than
two or three glasses a week These
latter seem to feel that they must
now drink tho regulation two glasses
a night with tho result thnt while It
is divided through a greater number
of interior departments tho liquid
consumption nt Ulverstono Is snld to
bo greater now than it was prior to tho
organization of the famous club
George n Cowles editor of Tho New
South Wales 13 veiling News who it
now in this country says in nn intor
viow on tho grazing possibilities and
livo stock maWkct of Australia that the
finest sirloin steak in tho world is laid
on his tablo for 0 cents a pound Tho
most delicato of mutton only costs 4
cents and shoulder mutton 2 cents a
pound Pork chops aro a littlo higher
selling nt 8 cents for tho best grade
Tho reasons for tho cheapness of meat
aro tho finest grazing lands in tho
world herds of cattle and sheep that
multiply with little caro until their
numbers nro enormous and tho absenco
of trusts or combinations each owner
boing for himself and thodomand nlono
regulating tho price As to tho objec
tion that Australian sheep and cattlo
raisers cannot enter into tho Amoricnn
market because of the distance between
tho sources of supply and demand Mr
Cowles says With tho great strides
thnt havo been made in perfecting re
frigerating apparatus both on land and
in ships distnuco is not what it used
to bo and consequently tho market ftr
fresh refrigerated moats has been ex
tended over tho world wherever a vessel
can touch port I havo looked into tho
cntiro question of transportation and
find no reason why wo cannot coino in
to this market and find a good wido
and profitable margin in tho salo of
Australian meat There is a future
possibility in this competition which
may give the combinations which re
cently put np tho prices of American
meats something to think about
