Began "a Stable Boy aud owed Much
to "A Good Woman.
A gentleman was reading about the
troubles of the president of the Adams

American boy can do or what can be
done in this country. He began rs II
stable boy, and his first promotion was
to assistant bartender in Boston.
Think of the chances he had OF going
to the devil. 1t is a wonder he didn't
There was n good-souIed old lady who
lived in the house where Adams
worked. She had two babies-girls-
and when Adams wasn't mixing drinks
for the Bostonians he was playing with
those children. That showed what
sort of boy he was If he had lived
in this age he would probably have
spent his spare time on the race
course. The good woman used to tell
him she was sorry for him. He had
been an orphan since he was 6. Then
he would cry and the woman would
pity him. She got him place in a
retail grocery store. He stuck to that
until he began to prosper. After he
had grown TO be rich he heard that
his benefactress was old and poor He
found her after long search and pen
stoned her. Her two daughters had
grown to womaahood and were living
with her. One of them never married.
Old man Adams made an allowance
for her. She is still living, and the
allowance Is continued by old man
Adams son. The elder Adams always
said he owed all he had to the woman
who took him from behind the bar

many dangers. One of them you'll Il be
surprised TO learn is falling asleep.
On a hot day the contrast between the
heat above and the delicious GOODNESS

channel near Governors Island, where
the tide runs so swift that diver can
work only during the one hour OF
slack water If I'd slept over that
one hour the deadly rush OF the tide
would have snapped the life-line and
hose Then in working wrecks there
is the danger of getting jammed be-

MASCULINITIES.

II is sometimes easier for man to COM

Mosr OF us are proud OF our skill in
weighing she mon and women whom
we meet "Ah. reckoned him up
as soon as ever I clapped eyes on
him" says the modern Dogberry to
Verges, when somebody had proved
himself knave; and then Dogberry
oozes dissatisfaction from every pore
at the thought of his own shrewdness
of observation; whereas the truth
stands at this, that Dogberry did not
reckon him up at ALL but only, far
back in the DINNER recesses of his
own consciousness harbored hazy
suspicion that a man might be IA
rogue, and now that events warrant
1t this suspicion is triumphantly
broSght to the light OF day and is in
vested with all the dignity OF an
opinion.

WHEN men help each other in chart
ty the help is always Inadequate. The
charSy which gives aims can never do
anything but supply present and press
Ing need, leaving the person helped
no more able at best to help himself
than he was before. This is obviously
true, and since it is so it is equally
obvious that the worlds want and suf-
fering can never be much helped by
the building OF hospitals. aims houses
and other institutions where the indi-
gent can be cared for without earning
help Nothing that individual or state
charity, even on the most extensive
scale can do for the needy will ever
do more than take away the need of O
comparatively few individuals. and
that only for a time This is stated
as plain fact, not as some would
have it an argument against Chart
able help to the needy. which is SO
good thing in itself that without il
the human race would not be worth

IT must be remembered that during
his Imprisonment and trial. from first
to last Guiteau. the most CONSPICUOUS
OF all cranks was faithfully attende
by his sister, an elderly woman OF
most exemplary character There
was something peculiarly pathetic in
that sisterly devotion. During that
famous trial this sister asked one OF
the experts while on the stand this
pertinent and profound question:
Doctor can person be born in
sane?" That was q, stunning blow
between the eyes. The question was
never squarely met but 1t might we'll
challenge especial consideration. 1t
is probably true tnat"gene's mental
structure may be so very awry as TO
amount to natural insanity. There
is surely nothing irrational in the
theory. No doubt a great deal. Of
crime Is attributable TO a mental OBJ
nquy amounting to much the same
thing as a rnental- disease. Science
should explore with all possible
thoroughness this field OF search.
