It was Cardinal Newman who said: "Fear not that thy life shall come to an end, but fear rather that it shall never have a beginning." ***

Chas. W. Eliot gave us a top definition of "personality." He says that "there is in a man an animating, ruling, characteristic, essence, or spirit, which is himself. This spirit, dull or bright, pretty or grand, pure or foul, looks out of the eyes, sounds in the voice, and appears in the manners of each individual. It is what w*e call personality."

Happiness in ihis world, when it comes, comes accidentally. Make it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained. At least, that's what Nathaniel Hawthorne said about it. "Foliow some other object, and very possibly we may find that we have caught happiness without dre"Tt"t of it."

Benjamin Franklin, wise man that he was, guessed wrong about the future of wars, for he was of the opinion during his time that mankind may have become wise and sensible enough to get along without any future wars. He discoursed eloquently on the wonders that could have been wrought in this world with the money that had been up to that time wasted on war. "I hope," he said, "that mankind will at length, as they call themselves reasonable creatures, have reason enough to settle their clifferences without cutting throats." ***

"There is no plac'e," said George Ade, famous humorist, "where humor counts for more in a commercial way than in advertising. If you can only land your shot under a man's funny bone, you have done the deadly work and can interest him in whatever you have to offer. The necessity for saying things tersely and compact$r, as the advertising writer must always say them, is a cardinal point in the training of the humorist, and for this reason I believe that the writing of advertisements is one of the best courses of instruction through which the man ambitious to shine as a professional humorist, ? 1".:."

Which is the best horse to ride, genius or industry, is an age-old subject of man's debate. Julian Ralph discusses that question vcry forcefully. He says: "I do not dcspise genius-indeed, I wish I bad a basketful of it instead of a brain, but yet, after a great deal of experience and observation, I have become convinced that industry is a better horsc to ride than genius. It may never carry one man as far as genius has carried individuds, but industry -patient, steady, intelligent industry-will carry ttousands into comfort and even into celebrig, and this it does with absolute certainty; whereas genius often refuscs to bc tamed and managed, and often goes witt wretched mords. If you are to wish for either, wish for industrSr."

Mark Twain once made an excellcnt argumcnt against circumstantial evidence. He said it should be receirred with great caution. "Take the case of any pencil sharpened by any woman," he said. "If you have witnesses you will find that she did it with a knife; but if you will take simply 'the aspect of the pencil, you will say she did it with her teeth'"

"He who helps a child," said Phillipa Brooks, "helps humanity with an immediateness which no otter hclp given to human creature in any other stage of human life can possibly give again."

"There is no more r";; .].,uorair,"t.," said tae hte Gifford Pinchot who was America's most famous forester, "than the man to whom you can give a piece of work and then forget it, in the confident expectation that the next time it is brought to your attention it wiU come in the form of a report that the thing has been done. When this selfreliant quality is joined to executive power, loyalty, and common sense, the result*i" *" T* whom you can trust."

It was the late humorist, Chauncey M. Depew, who was most eloquent on the subject of our schools. Hc once said: "The sheet-anchor of the Ship of State is the common school. Let no youth leave the school without being thoroughly grounded in the history, the principles, and the incdculable blessing of American libcrty. Let the boys bc the trained soldiers of constitutional freedom, and the girls the intelligent lovers of free men."

Oliver Goldsmith was philosopher as well as poct, as evidenced by the following extract from his worts: "To pursue trifes is the lot of humanity; and whether we bustle in a pantomime or strut at a coronation or shout at a bonfire or harangue in a senate house, it will at last conduct us to futility and disappointment. The wisc bustle and laugh as they walk in tle pageant, but fools bustle and
