When Red Peter took the Orient egpress, he carried with 1 him translations of Mill's "Liberty" , for distribution among his nrw uab fecta and vowed to et'abliah all M.ll's counsels of perfection. Bat Servla has only exchanged a benevolent aatociat for a timorous tyrant, who 1a himself the abject slave of murderer* and cowards.

With an empty treasury, with no amis or ammunition, a declaration of srar by Servla would only precipitate the Inevitable catastrophe.

One crab waa *een by the naturalist Eisig in 1878 to pluck off loophyttos those plant-' a animal colonise which grow on she Is and stones, and to fix them on l'i« spines and hairs of its shell. A si ill deeper romance of defensive tattles la to be found to the case of certain hermit crabs. They live in the cast off sheila of whelks and crawl about, house on back. One claw ia bigger «h»n the other, and this Is an adapt- ! ive feature, for when the crab retires 1 Into Its bouse the bigger claw la tuck- j ed across the month of the shell to , bar the way against a possible Intru der. More carious still la the hsblt , of one species which tolls along w th a sea anemone fixed to bis shell. I ke Slnhad carrying the Old Man of the Sea, Great care Is taken of this at mone. It Is fed by the crab and if the . latter has to seek a new shell bv r it son of his growth he tenderly sbl.'ta bis tenant off the old abode and places him on the new one. '^PENaLINGS^ Life Is a game of promise and take. It Is easy to begin loafing but It's hard to stop. A hitch in a love affair often pre vents a matrimonial affair Some men find it easier to dodge an obligation than to meet it. Fortune Is the only knocker that a man likes to his door. Some men thinUnnore than they say and some say mpA than they think. People who 100 trio ver the affairs of others are very apl to overlook their own ! Men who Imagine the world owes them a living try to collect It a loaf at a time. If a man is hard on hi* children he Is usually an easy mark for bis grand children. The garrulous man never knows enough about any question to put up an interesting argument. A young married couple's first quar rel usually begins with an argument about how to avoid quarrels.

When a man with Ideas complains that he Is disregarded, aA a crank, ha has piVibably failed to discover that the habits of the world are largely assumed as the result of experionce.

The world cannot be forced, but at the right time It en thusiastically follows an aide leader. A Dull Speaker. Of an eminent Knglish statesman who was a very dull speaker Lord Ashbourne once told this story: "He was making a very dull speech one evening, when I remarked to a mem ber of the cabinet'on the dreariness of the performance. •Heis an ailmira ble man.' was the reply.
