One Trait Of American Cl.aracter.

There is ono trait of our national
character which foreigners can never
comprehend, and that is our unsuitable
faith i'll our ability to "'come out all
right in the end" We stand idly and
more Oh less indifferently by and allow
a country to be pushed to the verge of q
financial or political precipice under
the impulse of some kind of popular
craze or another. entirely confident that
just before it slips over we can take
hold of it and pull it back. We have
done this again and again. and nothing
seems to shake our faith in our ability
to repeat the operation whenever occa-
sion arises. 1t costs US enormously, not
only i'll reputation, but also in money,
and retards u growth and progress in
q thousand ways, but nothing seems
likely to cure us of the habit, unless it
be a great national calamity due to our
failing in some crisis to take alarm
quickly enough.-Century.
