THOUGHTS from Emerson.

We owe to man higher succors than
food and fire. We owe 10 man man.
Nature is rag merchant. who works
mp every shred and odd and end into
new creations.
Poetry is the only verity-th express
sion OF sound mind speaking after the
ideal, and not after the apparent.
Wherever there is power there is
agp. Don't be deceived by dimples and
curls. | tell You that a babe is a thous-
and years old.
The man that works at home helps
society at large with somewhat more of
certainty than he who deyotes himself
to charities.
The truest test of civilization is not
the census, nor the size of cities, nor the
| crops,-no, but the kind of man the
country turns out
Every man is not so much a work
man in tho world as he is a suggestion
of that he should be. Men walk as
prophecies of the next age.
Every genuine work of art has as
much reason for being as the earth and
the sun. The gayest charm of beauty
has a root in the constitution of things.
The less government we have the bet
ter-tf1e fewer laws and the less conf
ded power The antidote to this abuse
of formal government is the influence
of private character, the growth of the
individual.
No way has been found for making
heroism easy, even for the scholar. La
Dor. iron labor, is for him. The world
was created rs an audience for him; the
atoms OF which it is made are oppor-
tunities.
Our efficiency depends so much upon
our concentration that nature usually
in the instances where 4 marked man is
sent into the world, overloads, him with
bias, sacrificing his symmetry to his
working power
II never was in the power of any man
or community to call the arts into be-
ing They came to serve his actual
wants, never to please his fancy These
arts have their origin always in some
enthusiasm. as love, patriotism, or re-
Hgion.
The high prize of life, the browning
fortune of man, is To be born to some
pursuit which finds him in employment
and happiness-whether it be to make
baskets. or broadswords, or canals, or
statutes, or songs.
Life is succession of lessons which
must be lived to be understood. All is
a riddle, and the key to a riddle Is am
other riddle. There are as many pill
lows of illusions as fakes in a snow.
storm. We wake from one dream into
another dream
Our life is an apprenticeship to the
truth that around every circle another
can he drawn; that there is no END in
nature, but every end is a beginning;
that there is always another dawn risen
on midnoon, and under every deep a
lower deep opens.
1t only needs that a just man should
walk in our streets TO make it appear
how pitiful and inartificial a confriy-
ance is our legislation. The man whose
part is taken.and who does not wait for
society in anything. has a power which
society cannot choose but feel
The restraining grace of common
sense is the mark of all valid minds
of Esop. Aristotle. Alfred, Luther.
Shakespeare, Cervantes, Franklin
The common sense which does notmed-
die with the absolute, but takes things
at their word things as they appear.
