The mqn who won the SGOOO prize, when asked how he worked, answered: "In prcpar(ng to .write the platform, I read as much of the political writings of the three Judges Butler, Bemldie and lull as time, allowed before drawing up my treatise."

Ham Christian, Apderscn, who In bis fairy tales showed he knew more about people than almost any other writer, once wrote a story about two weavers who norked at a mighty loom, pretending to weave cloth for their emperor's clothes.

For each per.son, seeing no cloth and believing 1his to be proof of his foolishness or bin unwortblncss, pre tended to (.ec and admire the beauilftil fabrics which did riot exist. The cat was finally let out of the bag by a little girl who divulged the fact that the emperor wore no fine robes, but his shirt only !
