themselves to the work of reform- 
ing the race, and begin by propos- 
ing to abolish all authority of every 
kind, human and divine, only show 
what fools men can sometimes make 
of themselves, and how well it is 
that the world is not left to be run 
by reformers wise in their own 
conceit.

A learned man has lately said of 
another learned man that he was 
“more than a man, he was an insti- 
tution ;’’ but somehow we had felt 
that a man is greater than an in- 
stitution, as ‘‘he that built the house 
hath more honor than the house;’’ 
we had thought that men made insti- 
tutions, not that institutions made 
men. But learned men sometimes 
seem to have the faculty of getting 
things wrong end first or upside 
down, and doing it, too, with such 
an air of wisdom; and the worst of 
it is, there seems to be no help for 
it. 
Some writers burst upon the 
world in pyrotechnic splendor, 
whose influence in a few years pales 
like a spent rocket; the hght that 
others give is like that of the stars, 
perennial and undimmed by the 
lapse of time; and there is one Book 
that is hike the sun, 
“It gives a light to every age, 
It gives, but borrows none.”’ 
" Telephone Changes. 
The Magnolia telephone exchange 
which has heretofore been a branch 
of the Manchester exchange, will 
henceforth be a home station and a 
charge of five cents will be made to 
talk between the two places. The 
change was made, say the telephone 
people, because of urgent requests 
on the part of a number of Man- 
chester Cove residents who were 
listed in the Magnolia exchange, and 
who necessarily had to talk with 
Manchester neighbors by first call- 
ing the Magnolia exchange and then 
being connected through the Man- 
chester office. And Magnolia sub- 
seribers get a lower service rate by 
the deal also. 
McTierney-Murney. 
At the parochial “residence con- 
nected with the St. Joseph Catholic 
church of Boston, James MeTierney 
of Manchester and Miss Margaret 
M. Murney were united in marriage 
on Sunday, Feb. 6. The bride was 
for many years in the household of 
Mrs. James T. Field, and the groom 
is well known in Manchester, be- 
ing a gardener in Magnolia. They 
will reside on Pine st., in a cottage 
recently bought by Mr. McTierney.

The steady increase by the fire 
department in the use of motor-driv- 
en apparatus is a reminder of the 
passing of the horse, in many lines 
of business. The last season wit- 
nessed a much smaller number of 
horses on the streets and boulevards. 
In fact, it is unattractive to use 
a horse-drawn pleasure vehicle, hav- 
ing once used a car. Time ,speed, 
reliability and control are in favor 
of the motor car and the ecost of 
operation is against the horse. Taxi- 
cabs are taking the place of the cab 
horse, and delivery and heavy team 
trucks are being used more and 
more. The increase in the number 
of motor-driven vehicles of this type 
will from now on, be rapid. 
With abundant capital for sys- 
tematic development, Colorado’s 
vanadium resources will soon be 
come as well known at home as they 
are in Paris and London. Vanadium 
has been used in east iron with good 
effect, and experiments with brass 
and bronze show that it may be used 
to good advantage with these alloys. 
The extension of the uses of this 
rare metal naturally adds to its 
value in the automobile industry.

Ten Commandments. 
1. Thou shalt not scorch on the 
public road, nor challenge thy neigh- 
bor to a race on the same. 
2. Thou shalt not boast of thy 
mileage, nor of thy tires, for pride 
goeth before a puncture. 
3. Thou shalt not gaily pass an- 
other by and refuse assistance, for 
thou mayest be in a like position 
some day. 
4. Remember thy spark plugs 
and keep them clean, and also thy 
batteries charged. 
5. Thou shalt not neglect to 
work for good roads, so that thy go- 
ing may be smooth. 
6. Fill thy tanks with gasoline 
before starting on a journey, so that 
thou mayst not be stuck in the 
woods, miles from home. 
7. Honor an honest repairer, but 
keep tabs on thy chauffeur, so that 
thy automobile may not be abused. 
8. Do unto the drivers of other 
vehicles as you would have them 
do unto you. 
9. Thou shalt not borrow thy 
neighbor’s pump, nor his jack, nor 
his tube, nor anything that is thy 
neighbor’s. 
10 Thou shalt not try to improve 
the work of thy manufacturer, be-
