DON JUAN RIANO 1'
GAYANGOS.
Don Juan Risno. Spanish asbes-
sador to the United States. has just
been advanced to the rank of a
Knight Grand Cross of the Order of
Charles III by King Alphonzo.
The order is superior to all the
others in the gift of the Spanish
crown. aside from that of the Gold-
cn_Fleccc, which with a. very few-
exceptlons is restricted to sover~
clgns and to princes of the blood
and was founded in 1771 by King
in
supporting the cause of the insur-
gent English colonies in America.
Don Juan Riano is, next to Am-
bassmlor Jusserand of France. the
senior in rank of the foreign diplo-
mntic corps at Washington. For
whereas J. J.‘ Jusserand. now the
dean of the corps. presented his
letters of credence as ambassador of
France in 1903. Don Juan Iliano
was only able to present his letters
of credence in 1913. although he
had been living in America first
as secretary and then as counsellor
of the embassy ever since 1904.
He has long enjoyed in u. very
marked degree the good will of
King Alfonso. whom he has known

THE COMMON MIND
The cultured class, so~called. is
wont to look with contempt upon
the thoughts of the common man.
And not without reason. for too of-
ten the mind of the average. or com-
mon man. is a disorganized medley
of racial superstitutlons and bigo-
trics and beliefs impressed on it by
conscious and subconscious accept-
slice of the feelings of the major-
ity.
O o
The dltlercnoe in minds depends
on the extent of their cultivation.
A mind is like a. tract of farm-
land: it it doesn't produce any-
thing ol talue it is because it isn't
cultivated enough. or because the
wrong method of cultivation is used.
Properly fertilized. any soil is
productive.
O b 0
That which is sound in the pill-
losophy of the common mind usual-
ly is founded on proverbs handed
down by the race.
Every people has its own prov-
erbs: yet the proverbs of the vari-
ous peoples when campurcd show
a. remarkable unanimity of common
thought.
Take these proverbs, for instance.
They are maxlms handed down in
China. for many centuries. and are
believed to be inventions of that
race but they seem as much Occl-
deuiai us Oriental:
."The greatest conqueror in he
who overcomes the enemy Without
a blow."
“He that does not believe in oth-
cm finds they do not believe in
him."

' "A vacant mind is open to all
suggestions as a. hollow building
echoes all sounds."
“The greater the number of laws‘
the more thieves there will be."

“A diamond with a flaw is pref-
erable to. a. common stone with
none.” ' .

his father's face; to leave it is a
blemish. to cut it oil is painful."
