THE VISIT OF THE QUEEN of EngLand to the United States brings, to mind something that happened away back in 1855 between tvro queens. Ih that year, Queen Victoria of England made a visit to Paris and went to the opera one night in company with the Empress Eugenie of France. An Englishman, who was in position to see, said to a friend: "Did you notice the difference between those two Queens when they were seated? The Empress, before sitting, looked around to be sure there vras a chair waiting for her. Queen Victoria, being a REAL Queen, sat down without trooking. She was born a queen; she knew a chair must be there." Of the young Queen of England, we can truthfully say as did that Englishman just quoted: "She is a born Queen," and she will never look back to see if there is a chair waiting. She will know.

THE MORE YOU READ about Benjamin Franklin, and the more you mull over his words, the deeper becomes the conviction that here was a man who p,ossessed in copious quantities that mighty gift-wisdom. No wonder this nation came into being after the miraculous fashion that it did, when such a man as Franklin was a chief wheel-horse of the operation. As a fine example of the wisdom of the man, and his clear way of displaying it, here are some remarks that he made when the Constitution of this country was under discussion. Such remarks alone would mark him great, when he said:

"I confess that there "r"."";; parts of this constitution which I do not at present approve, but I am not sure I shall never approve them. For, having lived long, I have experienced many instances of being obliged by better information, or fuller consideration, to change opinions even on important subjects, which I once thought right, but found to be otherwise.

"It is, therefore, that the older I grow, the more apt I am to doubt my own judgment, and to pay more respect to the judgment of others. Most men, indeed, as well as most sects in religion, think themselves in possession of all truth, and that wherever others differ from therrr, it is so far error. But though many private persons think almost as highly of their own infallibility as of that of their sect, few express it so naturally as a certain French lady who, in a dispute with her sister, said: 'f don't know how it happens, Sister, but I meet with nobody but myself that's always in the right.' ***

"On the whole, I cannot help expressing a wish that every member of the Convention who may still have ofjections to it, would with me, on this occasion, doubt a little of his own infallibility and, to make. manifest our unanimity, put his name to this instrument."

One is tempted to quote a remark frequently heard when giants of other days are mentioned, and say: "They don't make those kind of men no more." Surely, just as certainly as there are no Washingtons, Lincolns, or Jeffersons any more, there are no Ben Franklins, and little of the wisdom of which he possessed such a wealth.

QUICKNESS OF WIT, of course, is not necessarily wisdom. But it often gets results. In the great days of the French empire, an astrologer predicted the death of a lady friend of King Louis, whereat the King sentenced the soothsayer to die. And the King said to him, "Since you know the future, when will you die?" And the man replied, "I will die just the day before Your Majesty." The sentence was cancelled' *

SO WHY NOT TELL right here about the green newspaper reporter who was instructed to cut his news stories to the barest essentials, and make them short? So he turned in this one: "John Smith looked up elevator shaft to see if elevator was coming down. It was. He would have been 45 on the 9th of November." *:1.*

THE QUOTATION IS often written or uttered: "Enjoy yourself : it is later than you think." Same is taken from a book titled "The Bond Between IJs," written by Dr. Frederick Loomis of San Francisco. The foreword in this book is also impressive:

"This seems the time to remind many men and women that they will have more years and happier ones to do good for others if they will start right now to do something for themselves; to go ptraces and do things which, without decision, they have looked forward to for years; to give those who love them the happiness of seeing them enjoy some of the rewards which they have earned; to replace competition with a bit of contemplation."

And Merle Beynon -r,:", , "". to admire, the dash and the fire, the sparkle of thinkers progressive; the men who would purge the world of the urge, to be selfish and all too possessive. Sing praises galore for the thoughts I adore, that spring from the mind intellectual; their motives, I'ni sure, are so clean and so pure, so right and, of course, ineffectual.

" Babe, that there's what I catl4 SOUND FOUNDATION I " observed Paul Bunyan as he delicately lifted up the old house with h.is pinkie. The Blue Ox grunted. "See them mudsills, girders an' posts? Been settin' there 25 years in the damp an' dark, supportin' 50,000 pounds o' house-an' not a trace o' rot or termites anywhere. Sound as the day they was cut...Babe, sure as you're true blue, that's BAXCO Pressure Treated Foundation Lumber 1a."

BAXCO pressure treated, FOUNDATION LUMBER

$Vhat else, Paul? For the past 25 years

BAXCO pressure treated Foundation Lumber has been safeguarding thousands 6f Western homes against termites and wood-rot. Pressure treatment locks in the chemical protection for keeps. And when you figure, Paul, that just one repair bill, caused by rot or termites, can run into hundreds of dollars-well, why take a chance? Especially since BAXCO Pressure Treated Foundation Lumber adds so little to the total building cost-just a few dollars. rU7rite today for free booklet.
