had disputed this supremacy and the

There was a wild scene OF terror and
confusion, but Phil was the first one
to recover from the shock and to assure
Belinda of his Joy that she had only
been in trance. He also alluded feel
ingly TO the fortunate circumstance
that one Of the bearers had stumbled.
A year or so later Belinda, whose tenn
per had not been at all improved by her
remarkable experience, really died. and

be no doubt, and then gathered the

Faith and Works hound by an Indfs-
soluble Law.

Faith aaa Works hound by an Indfs-
soluble Law.
While IL Ia true that no amount OF
painstaking work will take the place
of that original insight and instructive
power which we call genius, IL is equal
~ true that without the training which
IL secured by infinite patience, genius
cannot accomplish its highest aims;
and Il Ia also true that q person Of mod
crate abilities, with a capacity for taxi
ing infinite pains, 80 likely 20 do better
work than person Of much higher
natural gifts who lacks this basal quail
ity. In tho religious life faith and works
are bound together by an indissoluble
law; Il Is impossible TO separate them.
In the life Of the creative man or wom-
an original ability and patience In work
are united In the same vital fashion;
they cannot be separated. An eminent
American artist, who Is now an old
man, has never forgotten the lesson he
learned from Sir Frederick Leighton in
his youth. Leighton was then bril-
liant and fascinating young painter
whose future was still before him. He
was at work upon an kahan landscape,
or upon picture with an Italian back
ground. In that background he was
anxious to introduce an olive-tree. He
remembered tree which he had seen
In the south OF Italy, and remembered
IL quite distinctly enough TO reproduce
It; but he was not content to trust his
memory. The American artist remem-
beers how Leighton came into a cafe In
Rome on HIS way TO southern Italy,
making the long journey from England
for the express purpose of studying
that olive-tree and Of taking home an
exact sketch Of 1t; and he remembers
also how, four or five weeks later, the
ardent young Englishman, brilliant,
enthusiastic, versatile. but with a ca
pacity for taking pains, reappeared
with a wonderful sketch of the olive
tree, upon which he had spent days OF
unbroken observation and work. From
this little incident the American stu
dent learned a lesson which he never
forgot, and which went far to secure
the success which came TO him In later
life. The story illustrates the great
quality which lies behind all real sue
cess, alike for the man OF genius and
the man Of talent. There Is cheap
philosophy abroad in the world, TO be
found especially on the lips OF unsuc-
cessful men, which declares that sue
cess is matter of accident, OF good
fortune, Of luck; but success Is as clear
ly the harvesting OF seed-sowing as
is the gathering Of the grain. No man
takes out OF life more than he puts into
IL; and no man makes any real achieve
ment who does not secure IL by force,
ability and genuine work. Any other
explanation OF success Is fallacious and
misleading. II may console the vanity
OF those who have failed, but II will not
explain the achievement of those who
have won-N. Y. Outlook.

rAMe's COST.


Oh. scoru not things OF low degree,
And sigh for wealth and state:
Far better court humility
Than burdens OF the great
For no who wins ambitions fight
Can never be at ease;
He gains. tits true. a worldly height.
But has world TO please.
For cares increase as honors grow,
And I'm his new estate
He finds. though bright those honors glow.
Ills thraldom to be great.
The natterers that about him throng
Each has some dole 10 ask:
To please them In no idle song,
But . herculean task.
We value things as they appear.
Nor count the cost nor pain
Which line the road 10 that bright sphere
The envied ones attain.
Fame IN no royal heritage:
Its crowns are free 10 all:
But who its dizziest heights would gage
Must risk the dixziest fall.
Then sigh not for ambitions need.
It's scepter and Its crown;
Uneasy lies the kingly head"
