THE GRAND OLD TIMES.

People talk of the grand old times,
and we often hear men express
wish that they had been born at such
and such a time in the worlds past.
This is all nonsense. There never
was time in the history of the world
when is was better to live in than
now. The poorest laborer today-no
matter how humble his surroundings
lives in a manner superior to
nobleman two hundred years ago. He
has even luxuries beside what they
used to have, and our millionaires
live in style that surpassas the way
monarchs lived a couple of centuries
ago. 1t is only the romance of the
past that comes to us-we know
nothing of the reality. It is all very
we'll to think how nice it would have
been to be a knight or crusader, AMI
go galloping around on horse back
dressed up in pot metal hat, sheet
iron overcoat, and cast iron brooches,
but whenyou think that at night you
would have been compelled to sleep
on bag of straw, in room without
windows or carpets, no stoves, no
warm clothing; considering this, the
romance pals somewhat. The peo
pie in the old times did aonsi1s rable
fighting, and lived a live of privation
in comparison to what we have at
command in these times. A man
that cannot get along in this day aud
generation would have made miser-
able failure had he been put on earth
just after the Garden of Eden evic-
ton.

THE GREATEST MEN.

Inc keenest critic of any age or
any country was Voltaire.
The greatest coneueror of ancient
times was Alexander.
The leading pantheistic philosopher
was Spinoza. He found God in every
thing and deemed that everything
was God
The most skillful military tactician
was Napoleon. His victories we're
won more by skill and tact than by
strength.
The Wisest of all natural philosoph-
ers was Aristotle, in whose works are
found the beginnings of the history Of
nature.
The leading experimental philo-
sopher was Bacon, who deemed that
the substance of all philosophy lay in
testing the accuracy Of the knowl-
edge already gained.
The most learned philosophical his
torian was Buckle. 1t is estimated
that single footnote in his "History
Of Civilization" must have cost five
years Of research.
Euripides is generally regarded as
the father of the philosophical drama.
Critical writer's say that he was the
intermediary between the ancient
and the modern drama.
Rubens, the chief painter of the
Flemish school, was first in the num-
Der of his paintings. No less than
500 pictures, most of them of rare ex-
cellence, are ascribed to his brush.
The most skillful of all pianists was
List. When learning his profession,
he was accustomed to practice scales
and exercises for ten hours day. 1t
is said that he practiced thus in pri-
vate for ten years.
The most learned of musical COM
posers was Wagner. He was equally
great as a musician, poet, manager
and conductor. His literary, theo-
retical and controversial works dis
play immense erudition.
Bach was the founder of the modern
music and the inventor of the system
of lingering the piano and organ. AS
writer of fugue music he has never
been surpassed, while his religious
compositions stand unrivaled.

An ALL NIGHT SCARE.

Young Englishmen visiting the
and amusing experiences as Ameri-
cans have when in foreign countries.
The story is told of an English travel
Ter who had been assured that west Of
the Missouri River the entire ntry
was infested with bears, some of
which were so bold that they came
into the towns.
He stopped in a Kansas village, and
Tin the evening started out for walk.
The stores were closed, but the moon
was shining brightly. He rambled
about the place for couple OF hours,
and started down the business street
for the hotel. Suddenly he saw be-
fore him on the sidewalk a big bear,
sitting on it's launches, with open
mouth and paws extended, awaiting
his coming.
In moment he was on top of a
porch crying for help; but no one
heard him, and the bear sat and
watched him.
All night he stayed there, trembl-
ing for fear Bruin would climb the
post, but comforting himself with the
idea that it was too small to be used
by bear.
At daybreak some men came along;
and one of them wheeled the bear
back to the doorway with the remark,
CT wonder who put that sign in the
middle of the Walk
The tourist descended from the
porch without detection; and, had he
not subsequently enjoyed the story so
much that he told it himself, it would
never have been known.

that the animal can eat certain herbs
