John Greenleat Whittier was born in
Haverhill, Mass, In 1907. His parents were
members Of the Society OF Friends, and to
the principles and practices OF this sect he
always remained faithful. conforming even
TO its popularity of speech and garb in a
community where such observance, by
being singular, must often have been trying
70 his sensitive temperament.
Born on farm Whittier's first occupa-
nons were those of q farmer boy. His
employment instIlled into him those
thoughts which gives such picturesqueness
70 some OF his poems. His schooling was
scanty. His only early opportunity to
secure an education was the district school
near his home where he got such training in
the simpler rudiments Of knowledge as was
possible under the conditions then existing.
This training even was limited to the win
ter months when farm work was suspended.
A farm hand taught him shoemakiug, a
common occupation during winter In the
fishing and farming villages on the coast,
and By this means he earned enough to at
tend the Rayerhill Academy during six
months OF 1927. He was then sufficiently
learned, according to the simple
notions Of those days, to be him
self teacher and he taught q district
school the following winter. This supplied
the means for another six months at the
academy. He thus obtained an education
at great sacrifice. When he was 10 he
contributed an anonymous verse to the
poets corner of the Newburyport Free
Press, Of which w. L. Garrison
was editor. A warm friendship sprung up
between Whittier snd Garrison, which may
have had some influence in preparing Whit
tier TO enlist IN the anti-slavery crusade
which began In 1891 and which later caught
so much OF its inspiration from his fervid
lyrics The anbiklon TO become poet was
awakened In his 14th year, when a COPY OF
Burns poems fell into his hands.
Whittier's father dying, the son carried
on the farm for number Of years, and in
1885 he was sent TO the general court from
Haverhill- During these years he had been
an industrious writer.
In 1886 he became secretary of the Amer
loan Anti-Slavery Society and after ward
moved TO Philadelphia, where he edited the
PennsyIuantd Freeman with such sincerity
that his printing office was sacked and
burned by mob. In 1S40 he
moved to his native state and
took up his abode In the quiet village of
Amesbury, whsre, with the exception Of
few months, he has resided ever sinoe For
thirteen years he contributed editoriany to
the National Era, an anti-slavery paper
published at Washington, In which "Unole
Toms Cabin" was first printed. Whittier
was never in politics exceps he was once
presidential slector, yet be probably did
more than anybody In preparing the ma
terial out OF which the Republican party
was made.
Win the single exception Of Longfellow,
Whittier was the most popular Of American
poets. His themes were mostly chosen
from his own time aud oountry--from his
own neighborhood. HIS writings did
as much for the scenery Of New EnRland
as ScOtt's for that OF Scotland.

4 Timely Warning.

Two years of the prevalent grip have
doubtless weakened the people on two
continents and this fact renders unusual
precautions, double necessity in the
transition from a cold to warm season.
A cold fastened on the human being
means sickness and possible death, not
even the strongest being exempt from the
dreaded congestion. Hence the dangers
of warm spring day should ever be borne
in mind, and no one should find himself
far removed from the source of supplies in
the way of wraps when the death trap is
sprung perchance, by the sudden change
with which a warm day in April or May
is almost inevitably visited.-Chicago
