Winnie Davis Philosophy.

Ex-Congressman Wharton J. Green,
OF North Carolina, has furnished for pub
LEGATION the following extract from letter
written by Miss Winnie Davis. 1t was
written to her mother from Paris. France.
about two months after her fathers
death:
1.-The society Of ordinary people is very
tiresome to me. | think you and our darf-
ings have spoiled me FOR the little talk and
aims of the world. ] remember how we
used to discuss the things that were worth
thinking about-things and thoughts that
would bel me to live better and think
higher but | don t find that atmosphere
OF pure thinking and living out of So
ciety. Do you suppose that political ex-
pedlency has permeated all the inner world
of ideas, or that we are really fallen into a
decadence? | have to believe that per-
haps it is the old order giving place to the
new, and before the socialism of the CEN
fury. The over-developed indi vidualism
and selfshness is necessary to make smooth
the road for the new political gospel 1t
can not be healthy development when the
poor are starving at every corner and the
luxury of the rich is eating into their lives
until the family relation, and with it all
spirituality, is crushed out by pure force
Of unbridled excess of comfort. 1t may be
part of that puritanism of which you &C
cuse me, but I do not think it is half as
easy to lead high life in the midst of
such luxury of comfort as invests the
modern interior as it was in the oId-fash-
Toned houses where the Bible was the chief
ornament of the parlor. Not that mean
to say that ornamcntation is exactly evil,
Or simplicity is alone necessary, or luxury
and religion antagonistic, only somehow
one grows to put false values on things,
and to be too bound by wants of the body.
The soul gathers spiritual dust as the brio
a-brac does the actual dust. The fact is, |
am just in the frame of mind to see more
heroic sacrifice in the life of Daniel than
that of st. John. do not wonder the
great prophet went up three times a day
to pray towards Jerusalem. He must
have been glad to leave the corruption of
the court"

last week told of an experience ne once had
while holding a pastorate near Bangor.
There was well-to-do farmer who lived
on the opposite bank of the Penobscot from
Mr. Bakers residence who, one spring
when the ice on the river was breaking up,
lost daughter. Mr. Baker was asked to
officiate at the funeral, which he did, be-
ing obliged to hire horse and carriage to
make the journey, the nearest bridge be-
ing some distance up the river Nothing
was said about paying him either for his
services or expenses. A little while after
wards another death occurred in the family.
Mr.. Baker was again asked to conduct the
services, which he did, this time hiring a
man to row him across the river; and
again with no mention of compensation
The next spring the farmers mother passed
away. Mr.. Baker was obliged to make the
journey as he did the first time, by carri-
age. This time the farmer went to Mr.
Baker and said ''Mr. Baker, you have
been very kind to come over here to con-
duct these funerals at such an expense to
you, and feel that it is asking too much.
