NOT WISER THAN HIS FATHER.
An Argument that Succeeding Generations
do Not Add to Wisdom,

One day the Caliph Almansor. one of the
vainest of the Arabian monarchs, was
conyersing familialy with the famous
poet Fazelli with whom he delighted TO
talk when retired from the cares of his
empire.
Thou thinkest." said he to FazelH.
" that | am not wiser than my father
Why islt so Doth not everv succeeding
generation add TO the wisdom of that
which preceded it?"
"Dost thou think myself wiser than the
prophet? " answered the poet, bowling his
head reverentially.
Assuredlv not. answered the caliph.
DOst thou think myself wiser than
solomon" asked the poet, bowling still
lower.
:, Assuredly not" again answered the
cahph.
"Dost thou think thyself wiser than
Moses, who communed with Allah him
selfg third time asked the poet. bowling
to the ground.
AlmansoT was for a moment thoughtful,
and bowed down his head.
"ASsuredly not" replied he at length.
" were fooilshly presumptuous TO think
So
Then, how" resumed Fazelli, "canst
thou prove that each succeeding genera
ton is wiser than another that is past?"
ly increased, replied the caliph.
True. O my King" replied Fazelli,
"but knowledge il not wisdom. Wisdom
points out the road TO happiness and viz
tue; knowledge is only an acquaintance
with q mass of facts, which are not
necessarily connected with either Wis
dom. virtue. OF happiness, the only
objects worthy the pursuit of wise
man. The knowledge of things has
certainly increased; but, o King, re-
member that wisdom is always the same,
as much so as the great power by whom 1t
Is dispensed. Thou mayst, perhaps, know
more of the moon, the stars, the earth,
and the sea than thy father; but of thy or
ganization, thy soul thy passions, APP
petites, the power TO direct them, and the
Being who bestowed them upon thee, thou
knowest no more than the meanest of thy
fathers slaves"
Thou sayesItrue." replied the caliph,
bowling his head reverently. Allah teach
me humility"
Great King" said Fazeli. Lament not
thine ignorance. Everything we cannot
comprehend furnishes proof of the exist
ence of Being wiser than ourselves"

TO FORM AN EXCHANGE.
Richmond Real Estate Men Take steps In
This Direction.

The chances are that in the near future
there will be real estate exchange IN
Richmond.
There have been two organizations OF
this character here. but both were short
lived. o result due in both cases largely
to the fact that the rules adopted were
very stringent and did not give the men,
bers the night 10 exercise the discretion
that most Of them thought essential TO the
proper conduct of their business.
II is now proposed TO form one with less
binding regulations and 10 give the men,
bers broader scope IN business transac-
tions.
A meeting looking to this end was held
Yesterday afternoon at the office OF messrs.
Bowman, Boswell d Shuman, at which
seventeen of the thirty-one firms IN Rich
mond were represented. Mr.. Bowman was
made chairman, Mr.. George L. Styll secre-
tary.
The committee that attended the State
Convention at Roanoke presented writ
ten report, setting forth the advantages OF
such an exchange as exists in many VIZ
GINA cities and towns, and recommending
that one be organized in Richmond on
conservative basis and with such broad
regulations as it is thought will meet with
the approval of those opposed 10 SUCH

The matter was talked over informally
and Messrs. George S. VashOn, James Is.
