A certain professor was noted for hav-

which he.could not we'll deviate withou,

trating the powerful effects of prussic
acid, he was wont to inform the class
that drop placed on dogs tongue was
sufficient to kill him. Ga one occasion,
when lecturing his class, he said, 'sMr.
Smith, addressing young man whose
chance of passing was very slender,
''what can you say of prussic acid2 Is it
powerful or otherwise2" cit Is rather

Several hours had elapsed before he
reached the treacherous spot again, and
not a sign of his unfortunate horse re
NAMED. The poor beast disappeared in
the black ooze, and only the lack of
scant verdure Oh that particular spot
marked the place where he had met a
living death.

his illustration had served a double pur-

boldly. "You played itaonee when you
thoaght it to your advantage. Now God
help you, for that play is returned!"
AS he spoke he raised a pistol which
VIC had not seen, and before we could
stop him, AIMED it deliberately at the
trembling man and fred. The gambler
fell heavily upon the table corpse, and
the bright blood streamed over it, hiding
the fatal card from sight.

to his feet, as we stood pa1alyzed with
horror at the dreadful scene, ''thas man

He walked slowly by us down the stair
way to the lower deck. Just then the
steamer touched at landing and he
sprang ashore and vanished in the dark
woods.
I never learned the history of the .nys-

beyond human questioning, and I never
saw the stranger again; but | shall not
soon forget the impression it made upon
me at the time.

What Young Men Can Do.

Oar MOrgantONn correspondent sends
us an Abs.rao. Of The baecAlaursais ser
mon delivered BY PsSslSsat Thompson
on Sunday lasI hWss SasS4 upon that
passage In SstipHrt&aaiNe "lt. no man
d sspl.s tAy yeatA,, sAsA words were
addressed By Papl 10 naSthy. Presi.
den, TAonpsSs ssa. into an interesting
exanipA,ien q What the world owes TO
Young men. he called before the audi
ense an array Of illustriOus men who had
performed much Of their labor, and rnads
their chief fame, before reaching even
middle age. Thee names he very ap.
propriateiy set before the graduating
olus a, incentives 10 labor and self de-
nial. Iii. really astonishing to think
how much has been achieved in science,
literature, stAtssmAnship, generSlshiP,
and in every department Of human &C.
tivity, by men comparatively young in
years. The world saw a man die the
other day at the age Of eighty-four,
full Of years and houOrs, whose fame
rested principally on one poem that he
wrote at the age Of 10. And to-day the
whole world ia ringing with the fame Of
Edison, the inventor, who Ia yet young
man, and who has shown a genius for in
venting that Is almost miraculous. o.
the other hand, the worthy President OF
the University might have shown per-
haps an equal list Of men who have be-
come famous towards the close Of their
days, some Of whom did not even embark
upon their specialties until after passing
so. This goes to show that after all it
requires in many, II not most instances,
the occasion, the opportunity in life, to
enable men to fully deVelope what's in
them. In Gray's famous elegy we read Of
the many gems that lie unknown 10 the
ozark uniathoned caves Of ocean," and
OF the mute Millions" who never sang.
Their lot forbade" said the poet. 1t is
not always an adverse lot however, that
forbids men from development Adyer-
sity has brought out many q man who in
the mid.t OF comfort was unknown.
After all, therefore, It is q matter Of na.
tive ability coupled with opportunity
that enables men to perform mastery
achievements in life.
Its well, however, that young men
should realize as they come from colleges
or workshops, that for the overwhelming
msjority of mankind there is no excel
lence in whatever they may be called to
do without great labor. The great work
Of the world Ia not after all done BY
genlusss, but by hard working men Of fair
mental ability. And hard working men
rarely fail to achieve success in whatever
they undertake when they couple with il
good principles. Not moral principles
alone, but good business principles. And
1t seems to US that this Is the point to
which the attention Of all young mer
should be turned in this day Of ours, wher
diliquenciss and Irregularities are SO
in.ermingled in the dispatches with re
ports Of failures. A man may be very
bright, but he has not tho stuff in hin
Of which character is made he Is bouut
10 fall in life. His influence and biz
happiness are alike cut short, and hi
life must be counted a failure.
