HISTORIC BORGO.
A Curious Old Town In Finland That Has
History.


Borgo is an old town about forty
miles from Helsingfors, and certainly
the most characteristic of the small
towns of Finland. BY the side Of the
old town, with its quaint, irregular
houses and its tOrtuOus streets. there
are square and unpicclresque quarters,
with houses painted with yellow ochrc.
and reminding one by their shape of
cigar boxes. Situated at the mouth of
little river, and prettily set in frame
of hills and ancient Notifications, COW
cred with venerable pine trees, BOrgO
presents a most curious aspect. The
old white cathedral; the strange houses
of the old town, painted red, ocher and
orange; the sheds and Warehouses
built along the river, with their founda-
tons in the water itself; and every
where in the intervals between these
odd wooden buildings the fresh green
cry Of the Gardens-such are some OF
the features which make this little
town SO characteristic. The cathedral
is a large, square monument, built of
blocks Of granite, whitewashed and
with pointed gables. The. steeple is
separate from the church. at distance
OF about fifty PAGES. It is the type Of
almost all our churches of the Catholic
era, that is to say, before Gustavus
NaSa.
1t was in this church of Borgo that
Alexander L.. in 1909, opened the Fin
nish Diet, by which he promised to pre-
serve and to respect forever the re-
ligion, the laws and tie Swedish con-
stitution of the country, thus. accord
ing to his own words. raising Finland
to a place amongst nations. Albert
Iielfelt, in Harper's Magazine.

2 LINCOLN'S HUMOR.


1t Was of the Kind Which Might Be
- Termed Serious Good Nature.
) The humeu of Lincoln was, like that
of most great hunOriSts. the break of
an intense and profound seriousness.
It's sunny flash caught the eye more
than the solemn depths from which it
rose, and his biOgrapherS make some
thing like a protest against the cXag-
gerated popular estimate of it. This is
very well, but it will not avail. There
is Il sort of tricksy caprice, a whim like
awomans. which fixes the popular esti-
mate of all things, and which no rca-
soning can change. 1t is this, apparent
ly, which has chosen the Gettysburg
address to prc-eminent fame out of all
the beautiful and perfect things that
Lincoln has written and said. Some
thing in the supreme occasion, in the
matchless worth of the main thoughts,
and in the very quality Of haste evident
in it, consecrates it to the first place in
the memory Of the people, and it would
be both perilOus and futile to attempt
to replace it with any other words even
of the same man. What surprises,
what aStOnisheS one in a critical cX-
animation Of his words at all times, al
most from the first use he makes of
written words, is his artistic sense Of
them. Here indeed, is something like
the operation of genius, of the thing
that we are 50 many of US eager to sub
stitute for consciousness. 1t is as if
Lincoln were so deeply concerned with
what he was thinking that he did not
know how electly he was saying it.
But we believe it would be mistake to
suppose this; we believe that this man,
without any scholarly training. had
schoOled himself, had trained himself.
to the study Of expression, till he felt
through al his consciousness the beauty
OF simplicity, that last and farthest
grace, and till it became his second
nature to use the right word in the
right place, SO that he could not have
erred without the pain the artist knows
when any vocable rings false.-William
Dean Uowells, in Harper's Magazine.

This conversation is chronicled in
comic weekly. and is supposed to illus
trate the fail from the sublime TO the
ridiculous: but it shows something else
that the writer never thought OF. ~
shows the spirit of common-sense.
Senator Stanford once remarked that
he remembered the days OF 40 III CAN

dollars q dav. and vet there was beg
gar on ever corner Their invarlablc
excuse. when they deiTncd to give any,

The boy with the right spirit and the
boy with the wrong spirit come into
competition every day. merchant
advertises for boy to help on the
books, and gets him. In comes another
applicant. and when informed that the
vacancy is filed, walks out with his
chin in the air. A third boy, on rcceiv-

as GRAND boy. Ten to one he gets it
and is soon promoted to q clerllship.
In the carly days Of Bismarck, now
the capital of North Dakota, city or
dinance was passed requiring brick
chi1nneys to be built, and there was not
a bricklayer in the place, but the CHM
neys were built by two painters, one
| plumber and a carpenter, who would
work at any thing rather than beg.
This is the right spirit-the willing
ness to take any thing rather than
nothing. Success in life depends largely
upon adaptabilityr and it is almost an
axiom that the man who looks for some
thing may not find it, but the man who
viii do any thing can always find some
