Humility of Genius.

The eminent scholar and church his-
torian, DR.. Philip Schaff, used to say
of himself, II have not genius. I am
simply hard worker, and what am
I owe to God and to constant applica-
ton, keeping my wits about me-" This
notable humility recalls the remark OF
Sir Isaac Newton that the only genius
he had was the ability to keep prob
lem before his mind until he saw
through it. A Scotch clergyman said,
''Sir Isaac Newton is as weel acquainsed
with the stars as if he had been bor,
and brocht up amang them" But shs
great philosopher was much more
modest in his self-appraisement. II
SEEM" he wrote, "to have been only Nke
boy playing on the seashore, and d.
verting myself in now or then finding
a smoother pebble or a prettier shell
than ordinary, whilst the great ocean
of truth lay all undiscovered before me. -
Our readers will not overlook the ictua
of that modest remark. Sir Isaac was
always wandering on the seashore, and
always intent on finding pebbles and
shells. "He that seeketh findeth."-

TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS FINE
For Wearing q Calico Dress and 800
Penalty for SELLING
the Goods.

It is singular fact, but none the less
true, that in England in the year 100 women
were not allowed to wear calico dresses at
all, and in 1871 penalty or fine OF IS was
laid upon the wearer, and the unfortunate
dealer who sold calico in those days had to
pay penalty of 500 for the offense It
is hardly necessary to say that no one of
them ever undertook to sell more than one
dress pattern. The women of this country
may bless their lucky stars that nothing
has ever interfered with their privilege to
buy and wear calico to their hearts con-
tent. Moreover, they can be thankful that
they are able to purchase the best quality
the world produces right here at home. The
goods of GRE firm are especially sought after
by both consumers and dealers and their
recognized superiority is assured when the
name William Simpson & Sons is found on
the ticket. At least that iswhat the ladies and
the storekeepers say, and they ought to know.

to see how Randy was getting on, but
the answer was the same to one and all.
No one was to be admitted, for the doc

And surely enough, bathed, re-

soft, white bed, but oh, so weak and
drowsy after all the labor of the chase
and the long, long day of racking pain.

scitably, irritably wide awake, de-
