When we compare life nowadays with
what il was three or four hundred years or
longer ago II becomes plain that II Is worth
while to be born in the nineteenth century.
In truth those ancestors of ours, whether
lord or lout, knight-ar squire, gentle or SIM
pie, must have had mighty stupid and I'M
comfortable time of it, See what a narrow
and pitiful round OF occupations was alone
open, even to the most favored. The finest
gentleman was fool in point of knowledge
TO any ten year old boy at one of our public
schools. Nothing TO be done but war, or
hunting, or stunning guitar TO tedious
and long-winded ballads. And for the peas
ant, the villain, lot to which that OF slave
on a Louisiana sugar plantation were almost
enviable. In point of household comfort
kings were worse of than any well-to-do
Yankee farmer The farmer lives in more
convenient house, ha. better diet, sleeps
In better bed, goes clad in a more complete
if not 50 rich costume, leads ten times as
secure an existence, is 4 thousand times
wiser and less superssinous, and in fact
every way more Of man than monarch of
those rude old times. Why, for instance.
lock al the railroad in which the poor man
is whirled as swiftly and safely TO the end
of his Journey as the millionaire, when enly
half century ago-to 60 back no further
none but the millionaire could take journey
at all. And so wherever YOU turn your eyes
YOU see that the world has changed to de-
gree which no Imagination painting the old
fashioned possibilities OF magic ever con-
ceived.
But it is not in respect OF outward, mate
nal things that the revolution Is most ex-
