THE rosin weed, a species of silphium,
and first cousin to the burdock, is a
natural compass. 1t grows everywhere
in the west, and wherever it is found in
open ground, that is, in ground not
shaded by trees, houses or fences, it's
leaves point directly north and south.
This curious popularity has given it
several names applied in different To-
ealities, and it is variously called the
compass plant, the pilot weed and the
polar plant.

less than Il year old, was playing about

Suddenly we heard the sharp whir-r-1

Individuality.

Among the countless millions who
have dwelt and still dwell upon this
earth, no two individuals were ever
percisely alike, says the Minneapolis
Tribune. Every human being bears
the stamp of individuality-an inward
divinity which bids him think his own
thoughts and follow the dictates of his
own reaSon-which also in personal
traits. makes him one apart from his
fellows. This being the case why
should any one try to renounce his own
Selfhood and adopt that of somebody
else? Why, indeed, when in every case
it is easy to distinguish the imitation
from the genuine article? TO ape some
remarkably gifted or successful person
age, is only to throw into bold relief
the imitatorS own weaknesses and
limitations. TO insure the failure of q

of inferiority to the great man whose

cIbuS anu which he can no more shake
off than could Sinbad, the old man OF
the sea- The aids to noble and true
living come mostly from within. They
have their root i'll the individuality,
the sen l of personal Independence
This independence is not buster, self
assertion, ohStinacy or CccCntricity; it
is the growth of courage, faith, enthus-
iaSm and Sclf-rcSpect. To hc true to
ones self is to be true to others Let
the diamond-in-thc-rou smooth of

let it not lose its individuality. 70
swim the tide of we'll grounded lISlges
and opinions is the height of folly bat
to trim ones sails to every breeze. to

base and cowardly. TO cultivate the
virtues of tolerance and adlptahiiity
is Il duty; to make ones self mere clay
i'll the hands of others to be moulded
to their will, is despicablc. TO set
ones self up for a model and oracle is
absurd; but it is far less contemplate
than to be afraid to have IN original
idea, or perform IN original action.
Those who have left their Impress upon

form part of the worlds Inheritance,
We're possessed of strong individuality.
