The GIFT of Expression
From the American Home.


Every grade of intelligence, from
common dizziness to talentof the high
est and most brilliant order, depends
for its degree upon the possession and
use Of this power-the glft of expires
sion. Expression is commonly asso-
ciated with speech; we use it, however,
in the more general sense of whatever
tends to make public the inner life.
Conversation, public speaking, all
writings, paintings and songs, inven-
tiOns of every kline, and every act, pub
lie and private, which goes to make up
life's history; all these are channels
for the expression of human nature.
Genius, TO be real, aust give forth
true expression; and it is not genius
unless it meets with the stamp of pub
lie approval. All may not be able to
tell what Is ia them, but all can recog-
nze the truth of what is told. The
utterances of genius may fall tempo
rarily upon dull ears, and the utterer
sink, discouraged, into an obscure
grave, for genius cannot live without
its compliment OF appreciation but in
the progress of the race, point Is
reached where the truths his utterance
crystalized are seen ty shine forth in
all their beauty, and thenceforth his
name is canonlzed.
