MISDIREGTJNG LET'rLERs. _
The poctmdster or Chidu‘go is quot-
ed as saying that 48 per cent of the
mail handled by the Chicago postofllce
is not properly addressed, and that
it costs about 110110.000 a your to cor-
root the addresses and see that the let-
'terLLs get to theli; destination. Maybe
that’s an excessive estiniste. There’s
no doubt that the carelessness of the
public is responsible for an immense
amount of unnecessary work in the
postoflice depagtment, and an expendi-
ture of many millions of dollars” a
year which might be put to aLworthler
purpose. ‘ ‘
The man or woman who misdirects
a letter through carelessness or lazi-
ness is in the some class with the
one who givesu telephone number
from an“ uncertain memory, instead of
looking it up. It is harder on the post-
oflice, however, than it is on the tele-
phone compaLny. It may take days to
cleur up a dubious address. The deliv-
ery of one misdirected letter-may tnke
more time and trouble than a hundred
letters addressed properly, but the de-
pertinent gets only the usual two cents
public institution, the careful people
pay for the expenses caused by the

Wouldn't it be a good thing if. the

made to pay something extra for the
trouble he causes the postofiicg?

TALKS ON THRIFT.
The Broad Line and The Bank Line.
Stretching clear around the block at
Broadwayami Eleventh street, New
York, any night at twelVe o'clock will
be found a line of hungry, dejected, uu-
kempt, homeless men. Some are old,
Some young, some middlevaged. But all
are men waiting for the cup of coflee
the taking every night at 12 o'clock
for these many years and will be for
many years to come. it is the famous
bread line, with tragedy all its own.
Stretching not so far, a. few block:

Ask the men of the bread line: How

The bank line has worked on the

correct; but the minus proposition has
more hurts in it than the plus. And.
the hurts last a long time.

the bank line is the best thing a men

his rent. it will bury him, and the
bread line never does that.

bread line whose future is behind them
and the bank line, whose future is

QUEER AFFINITIES.
Love Plays Some Curious Prank:
With Human Hearts.
Some uninitics really defy explana»
tion. Take Rousseau as an instance-A
distinguished writer has said:
"In the whole glory of the human
race I question if there is anything so
wonderful as the prolonged affection
of Rousseau for Theresa."
Here was one of the outstanding
literary geniuses of his time, a man
who could talk on equal terms at
least with the most brilliant women
of his day, marrying a kitchen maid.
who never could be taught to read
with case, who could not follow the
order of the twelve months of the‘
year or count a sum of money or reck-
on the price of a thing. Even a
month's instruction left her still un-
able to rend the hours on the clock
face. ‘
Therese 1e Vasseur could never
have given Rousseau one hour of true
companionship. She ~ could neither
have read his books nor have under
stood him when he explained them.
She was even without beauty and
grace. Yet thisLL mighty spirit chose
‘her, loved her and went on, loving
her. The alliance lasted happily, for
by some mysterious spell she held
him and after twenty-five years Rous-
seau could write to her: "I {never
had, my dearest, other thou one sin-
gle solace but that the sweetest. it
we: to pour out ‘ull my heart in yours.
My every resource, my whole confi-
dence is in you. and in you only."
Here was a mystery indeed.
Lytton, the novelist. pro-
ilded another of tlie matrimonial mys-
teries. Lytton was one of the salient
men in ordinary matters. but he was
foolish enough to marry a vulgar girl.
Rosina Wheeler. who proved to be
wasteful. improvident and a wretched
housekeeper. The marriage ended
miserably and all through her life

ed book after book in which she held
him up as a monster and did over?-
thing in her power to render his life
111111399! ‘ L ""’,’
She made herself the “heroine" of
11 most extraordinary episode oil the
day when Lytton. then colonial secre-
tary, was reelected by his Hertford-
shire constituents. He was in the
v»
middle 01,7311; uddr when here ad

dyed it nt§1dng 11 .yellow nth-"L
brella 11111111111; the hustings. Lady
Lytlonwfor it was she—unlined the
newly made minister with.
“Friend. villain, monster, cowardly
wretch. outcast! I am told you have
been sent to the colonies. if they
known: much about you as i do they
would have sent you there long ago!"
For once Lyttonhi presence of
mind failed him, or. rather, he faint-
ed, and knew ‘no more till he found
himself back at Kncbworth in bed.
Husband and wife had not seen each
other for twenty-two years before
this, and they never met again.
Probably the most mysterious of all
marriage was that of Tschaikovsk'y,
the great Russian composer. whose
"Pathetic“ symphony is such a favor-
ite inthe concert room today. Techni-
kovsky was‘u moody, pessimistic, shy,
reserved man. As he said himself, he
had lived«’for thirtyseven years "in
antipathy to marriage" and then was
"made a bridegroom by sheer force of
circumstances without being in the
least charmed by the bride." It is one
of the queerest stories imaginable, as
told by Tschaikovsky himself. _
He says that ode day he received a
letter from a poorgirl whom the had
known for some “time. She declared
her love for him in the most passion-'
site terms. He went lite next evening
to see her and told her that he could
give her nothing but sympathy and
gratitude. Later when he had thought
it over he feared. Antonina might
make way with herself, so he went to
see her again, pleaded his irritability,
his uncertain finances, his antipathy
to motrimdny end then asked her if,
after all this, she still wished to be
his Wife. '
Her answer was "yes.” Tscliu‘lltov-
sky bowed before the inevitable. so he
regarded it.

‘Bcrlioz says: "Music is the art of 3‘

ultevegou ever ihopglit what a dose

music? Have you cvei reoiized that
the entire civilized world now looks
upon music as one 6f the great csserr ‘

Few persons know that the greatest
delight of music comes through the un-
derstanding of it. The highest in mu-

the student has earned the right to
enjoy it. With the right once earned
the student has a wonderful pOWer at

With music it is possible to exercise ‘
