Took Them for Insects.

Woodrow Wilson, the president of Princeton, said at a recent dinner in the beautiful university town: “When all the world is well educated, as all the world will be some day, then it will be better for everybody. Some foolish people, though, don’t care to see all the world educated. These people want to shine—and to shine, of course, one must have darkness. "But that is a poor way to look at it. Those ambitlouc people should rather say, the more education, the more appreciation. “There’s nothing more disagreeable than want of appreciation, you know. A multimillionaire returned to his native village and erected a marble palace on a hilltop there. One day, after the palace was completed, he said to the postmaster and the crowd of loiterers in the general store: Boys, my milllos-dollar house up on the hill is simply full of Titians.' “The loiterers exchanged looks of surprise and horror, and the postmaster exclaimed: ‘"Good gracious! Ain’t there no way o’ killin’ ’em?"’ ,
