HOW LINCOLN GROWS AS A HERO.

HOW LINCOLN GROWS AS A HERO.
PROT Woodrow Wilson, in the July Forum
He would be rash man who should
say he understood Abraham Lincoln.
No doubt natures deep as his. and var
ious almost to the point of self-contra-
diction, can be sounded only by the iudg-
ment of men of like sort-if any such
there be. But some things we all may
see and Judge concerning him. You
have in him the type and flower of our
growth. 1t is as if Nature had made a
typical American, and then had adCed
with liberal hand the royal quality of
genius to show what the type could be.
Lincoln owed nothing to his growth :
had no training save what he gave him
self: no nurture, but only wild and
native strength. His life was his school
ing, and every day of it gave to his char
acter new touch of development. His
manhood rot only, but his perception
also, expanded with his life. His eyes,
as they looked more and more abroad,
beheld the national life and comprehend
ed it, and the lad who had been so rough.
cut a provincial became when grown to
manhood, the one leader in all the nation
who held the whole people in his heart
held even the Southern people there and
would have won them back. And so we
have in him what we must call the per-
feet development of native strength, the
rounding out and naturalization of the
provincial. Andrew Jackson was type,
not of the nation, but of the West. For
all the tenderness there was in the
stormy heart of the masterful man, the
staunch and simple loyalty to all who
loved him, he learned nothing in the
East; kept always the flavor of the
rough school in which he had been
bred. lie was never more than a
frontier soldier and gentleman. Lin
coin differed from Jackson by all
the length of his unmatched capacity
to learn. jackson could understand
only men of his own kind; Lincoln could
understand men of all sorts and from
every region OF the land; seemed NM
self, indeed, to be all men by turns, as
mood succeeded mood in his strange
nature. lie never ceased to stand, in his
/ bony angles, the express image of the
ungalnly frontiersman. His mind never
/ lost the vein of coarseness that had
marked him grossly when a youth. And
yet how he grew and strengthened in the
real stuff of dignity and greatness: how
nObly he could bear himself without the
aid of grace. He kept always the
shrewd and seeing eye of the woodsman
and the hunter, and the flavor of wild
life never left him: and yet how easily
his view widened to great affairs: now
surely he perceived the value and the
significance of whatever touched him
and made HIM neighbor to itself. Lin.
coin knew the people and their life as nc
other man did or could and now stands
in his place singular in all the annals OF
mankind, the "brave, sagacious, fore.
seeing, patient man" of the people

Ceylon Tea Industry.
Harper's Weekly.


Some idea of the extent of the Ceylon
tea industry may be gathered when II is
remembered that to produce last years
crop of exported tea no less than S40,-
O00. 900 pounds of green leaves were gath
cred from the plants and conveyed for the
most part on the backs OF the pickers.
to the factories for manufacture. Last
year there were about 10000 acres of
land in the island planted with the tea
shrub. and there is every prospect of this
acreage being doubled within another ten
years.
The rise of this new industry has had
the most beneficial effect on the native
population of the districts to which 1t
is confined. Go where one may in the
tea country there is general air of
prosperity. which extends both 20 places
and people. AS rule, the planters bung-
allows are models of neatness, and of that
luxurious comfort which seems 70 be no
where better understood than here. And
even among the natives of the district
the pervading influence of prosperity is
very apparent OF course the wages
earned are small--absurdly small from
our point OF view-averaging certainly
not more than the equivalent OF cents
a day, yet this, as IL is regular, and as il
allows of a considerable proportion of
each family becoming wage-earners, is 10
their class a competency. There seems TO
moral side TO the tea business, which dis
tinguishes II from most other kinds of
labor in the fields. From first to last the
tea business Is scrupulously clean. The
girls and men, yes, even the old women
In the tea fields are clean both in person
and in clothing TO a degree not elsewhere
To be met with among native races en-
gagged in outdoor labor. The baskets into
which the leaves are put when pulled are
also scrupulously clean. and when they
arrive at the factory they are handed over
10 operatives who are even ostentatiously
clean in appearance. The dark skins OF
the men in the whitening, weighing ana
packing rooms are not more glossy IN their
cleanliness than those of the girls In the
sorting department: and their clothing. X
somewhat scanty is at any rate a model
of purity. All this Is. OF course, a matter
of commercial policy. but IL Is none the
less a matter which enters. ana VIII more
and more enter. into the advancing CIVIL
ization OF the people employed in one or
other portions of the work.

the enemy. This duty they performed ao-

Meanwhile the Fourth Sikhs assembled une

up their position first on the eastern

the Dera Jat native battery. Our guns
opened fire from their first position at s:is.
and made most excellent practice at a
range varying from g. 200 to 2, 700 yards.
1t was marvellous 10 see the way IN
which the shrapnel was pitched right on

into them with deadly accuracy L saw

occurred during this ascent which is

reached the village at the top OF the pass

One fanatic rushed down upon the as

thirty yards. During this time our guns
had moved to their third and last posi-
