RUSKIN'S DOCTRINE.

John Ruskip, the great English critic
and philosopher who died recently, rep.
resented in art and in literature many
good old Saxon notions, the greatest Of
which was the duty and necessity of
combining ~earnestness of motive with
patient, honest work. Beauty was in
deed his gospel, but he could see no
beauty in a man, a picture or q thing
unless the man or the thing we're true,
good and essentially moral.
The specifically or merely sensuous
beautiful was to him not beautiful at
all; a thing created or done must be
done with an idea behind and in it.
For this reason Ruskin loved the
work Of the hand. The good ditch
digger, still more the good blacksmith,
was to him a true artist. He did not
like, in fact he disliked, the work of
machines from which the idea. the
spirit of work was absent. He once
wrote:
ut is nc mans business whethe he
have genius or not. Work he muss,
whatever his hands find to do. If
faithfully and conscientiously done. it
will be the thing God meant him to do,
and will be his best; if restlessIv and
ambitiously done, false, hollow and
despicable."
Ruskin loved men who work with
Gheir hands, and his books are in great
part written to them. To a large ex
tent, no d2uble, his words failed to
make a direct impression on the people
he wished to reach, but his ideas were
taken up and repeated to them by
teachers whom they understood better.
Indeed, the ideas Of any man or wo
man who believes in e~arnestness. in
-ndexible% sincerity, in patient, honest
in right and true dealing between
men, and in the supremacy of the heart
above things merely of the head, and
Who can express this belief, can never
'e lost to the world. Youths Com
