WEEK IN SOCIETY

' If those who hate would love us,
Anj all our loves were true,
The stars that shine above- us
Would brighten in the blue.
If cruel worda were kisses,
And every scowl a smile,
A bettor world than thla Is
Wouid hardly be worth while.
If purses would untlghten
To help a brother's need.
The load we bear would lighten
Above the gTave of greed.
If those who whine would whistle
And those who languish laugh.
The "ose would rout the thistle
And the grain outrun the chaff.
If hearts were always jolly,.
If grieving were forgot
And tears and melancholy
Were things that now are not.
Then love would kneel to duty.
And all the world would seem
A briday bower of beauty
A dream, within a dream.
The Jolly Elk.

i PRINCE OF FORGERS.
I
Hit Work Was Autograph Letters, but
He Became Too Brazen.
Irene Lucas. beyond all question
was the greatest counterfeiter of auto
sraph letters, at least us regard:
amount produced, that the world ha;
ever seen. Twenty-seven tbousant
letters, all from famous people, is n<
mean record and one that may rein ait
forever unequaled.
It must be admitted that Lucas waf
exceptionally favored by the friend
' ship of Michel Cbasles. the famous
French mathematician, who from 1SG1
to 18f>0 waa a steady client and bought
almost the total output, paying in all
.140,000 francs. This was not a large
sum. considering that among the let
ters lie acquired were six from Alex
under the Great to Aristotle, a cbal
lenge from Julius Caesar to Vercinge
torlx. three missives of Cleopatra ad
dressed respectively to Cato. Caesar
mi,I l'ompey: one from Germius Julius
to Jesus, oue from Aeschylus to Py
thagoras. twelve from Jeanne d'Are,
one from Judas to Mary Magdalene,
one from Lazarus, ten from Pontius
Pilate, one from Sappho, one from
Mohammed to the king of France, ex
cerpts from the writings of Caligula,
Dante. Spinoza. Luther. Rubens. St.
Jerome and a multitude of hardly less
er personalities.
It is true that Michel Cbasles did
make some objection to the fact that
these letters were iu French, whereas
it is not stated historically that Caesar
and Cleopatra, for example, were -in
the habit of using that tongue for
their private correspondence. But Lu
cas parried this protest in a way that
was In keeping with his dignity as a
collector of famous letters by oCferiug
to take back all he had sold to Chasies
and return to him the 110,000 francs.
Cbasles was so touched with this con
vincing proof <>f his sincerity that the
disc-n**i«n ending iu bis lending Lucas
20 louis to meet some pressing obliga
tions
How a man having need of $80 could
return $-S,000 requires a great mathe
matician to determine.
It was the greed of England in wish
ing to keep for Isaac Newton the hon
or of discovering the law of gravita
tion that caused the bubble to burst
and deprived Lucas of a steady and
very genteel occupation.
With such solemnity as bctitted a
striking proof of the world's Indebted
ness to France. Michel Chasies pre
sented to the Academy of Sciences a
letter from Blaise Pascal to Newton,
dated May 20. 1C34, aud proving be
yond all question that he (Pascal) was
really the discoverer of the law usual
ly attributed to Newton.
It is true that at the date of this let
ter Newton was hardly eleven years
old—rather young to have attracted
the attention of the great Pascal—but
there was still another proof of the
falsity of the document The author
Is made to speak of "la mousse .Iu
cafe," and coffee was not Introduced
Into France until seven years after bis
death.
All England arose and protested.
Tbcy bad. given their gol.l medal to
Michel Chasies. but they insisted on
keeping universal gravitation.
Shortly afterward Lucas was brought
to trial, and n sentence of two years'
Imprisonment ended a career not with
out entertaining elements. — Orville

Legal Love Letters.

dear?"
"A young lawyer."
"And does he wriie nice letters?"
"In a legal way. yes Fie says J have

Conscientious Objection.
I A bouse decorator was engaged to
repaper the walls of a certain office.
After a long period the manager en
tered to find that the man had finished
his work and was sitting down reading
a newspaper and enjoying a quiet
smoke. When asked why he had miss
ed the part of tlie wall over the clock,
the man replied. "Well. I never reckon
to work overtime!"

"A rose by any other name"— says
Shakespeare, but it is interesting to
note how very little the name varies
among different nations. The Greeks
called it rhodon; the Romans, rosa—a
form adhered to in Italian, Portuguese,
Spanish and Russian. In Polish it is
roza; in Dutch, roos: in Swedish, ros,
and in French, German and Danish,
rose.
