Mr.. Elmer r. Aylesworth, boot and

OF Natick, had an exciting experience
Saturday night at about II 30 on the road

horse by his head. They did not succeed
I'm doing this az Mr.. Aylesworth vigor-
ously applied his whip and dashed by

have shot had the horse been stopped.

of the rostrum twined with holly and
evergreen.
Principal Jones introduced Col Hlggin-
son. who INDUCED In "reminiscences of
Whittier, and said that IL was the anti
slavery movement that made them firm
friends.
Col Higginson related n number OF
anecdotes of the great Quaker poet. and
said: Whittier was finally forced TO
separate in his anti-slavery views from
Garrison. but OF all the prominent men
OF that time. cannot remember one who
went through IL all as Whittier did. with
so little Injustice and antagonism TO all
"And thus l like to look back on him
I never knew him TO confess 10 but one
fault and that IL that he never was mar
ried. And am always glad 10 speak of
the goodness and greatness OF this man

fight How Whittier softencd the asperi-
ties OF an old-time religion and made Il
seem not repellant, but sweet and beauti-
hll. 1 wonder II We realize how. much
that simple singer has done TO help the

AN AMERICAN PEER.
Lord Fairfax Disdained His Title
and Lived and Died in
America.

couple of months ago brief men.
ton was made of the death of DR..
Fairfax, prominent citizen of Mary
land. Few knew through informa-
ton cleaned from the doctor that he
belonged to one of the most distin-
gushed families of England. No man
ever bore his title with less ostenta-
ton. for neither he nor his elder
brother, from whom he inherited the
peerage, would ever take measures to
have it confirmed. The settlement of
the Fairfax family in the United
States dates from the time of the
sixth baron. although several mem
bers had previously come to reside
here.
The late peer lived the life of gen.
tleman farmer in the south. The only
title by which he was known was that
of doctor, which he obtained as a grad
uate of the medical school of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania. When he was
a lad he left Virginia and moved to the
heights of Georgetown, where he re-
ceived his first education. He grad
uated from Princeton. and later be-
came doctor of medicine and Joined
his mother at Washington. When the
war of the rebellion began his family,
as southern ympathizers. found mat
tiers so disagreeable for them that they
moved to a point near Bellsville, in
Thenceforth DR.. Fairfax,
who had married the daughter of Col.
Kirby. of the United States army, re-
sided on the lands and modest fortune
which descended to him.

MILLIONS FROM AN IDEA.


A woman writer in Success tells
how John F. Dryden became a mil
lionaire by carrying out one idea-the
theory that life insurance should be
as cheap as any other good thing in
life. She says:
"The story of how he did it is full
of suggestion. Without a dollar of
money capital to begin with, with a
single great idea in his mind, and
with perfect faith and confidence in
its practicability, this pioneer concen-
trated all his talents, industry and
will-power in the endeavor to make
that idea successful. When he began
work there were regularly insured in
the United States a fraction over
100000; now there are on the books
of the ordinary and industrial COM
panies the names of about 10000, 900
policy-holders. A marked feature of
it all is that his success has not in
the slightest degree altered or
changed the native modesty and SIM
plicity of Mr.. Dryden's character. So
far as this is concerned, he is to-day
the same quiet, unassuming gentle
man that he was more than a score of
years ago"
