cottage set back from the street a lit

better home than I ever could have

a little toward my wife as I opened the
gate. One could not blame her, after
all. She was a good . -woman, but a
light one, one of those who never get

may have believed that I wasnt doing'

Professor Powers of Cornell does not
favor the killing of the weaker of man
kind In order to Improve succeeding
generations, though the newspapers
quoted him last year to that effect He
has many radical Ideas, however, on
sociological subjects, and one of these
la that tho man of the present day
must learn to "flt In," to lose his Indi
vidual Identity and become a cog or a
lever hi some huge industrial machine.
With those persons who lack perspec
tive he has Uttle patience.
Last spring In one of his lectures at
CorneU on "The Modern Regime" Pro
fessor Powers told of such a person,
whom he met In a western town. He
got off at the station In one end of the
town and learned that the station of
the other railroad on which he was to
continue his Journey that morning
was, for no apparent reason, at exactly
the other end of the village, two miles
distant He took the bus and whUe
waiting for his train" at the end of his
ride engaged In conversation with the
bus driver, who was also the bus own
er. Professor Powers asked him if he
did not think that some day tho two
railroads would consolldete or at least
use the same station. The idea had
evidently never occurred to the village
man, for, folding up bh hands, he as
sured his questioner, with decided em
phasis, that that would never ,come
'about. "Why," he said, "what would

Mr. Twain says he makes this re
