Keats suggested that when ones BE-
loved exhibited some rich anger" to
lmprison her soft hand and let her rave,
And feed deep, deep upon her peerless
eyes.
Of course there are smiles more heart
rending than tears and tears more
cheering than smiles. while the Chesh-
ire cat variety Of expression is pleas
ant to the point Of evaporation. The
smile upon the face of Leonardo da
Vinci's celebrated Norma Lisa is un-
endurable to some people. while over
others 1t casts spell not to be resisted.
1t is said that the American feminine
countenance Is one that leans toward
smiles. and If foreign testimony is to
be trusted there is cause for a smiling
complacency in the recently demon
strated facts that American women are
the best dressed as we'll as the most
independent and problem free Of all
women. To have the right things on
ones body and the wrong things off
ones mind Is certainly to be as happy
as it is possible for womanknd to be.
But as for the necessity for smiling in
all situations and under all crcuni-
stances that must rest with the indi-
vidual. who will probably decide that
he will look as he feels and smile when
he pleases.

Certain kindly disposed persons are
IN the habit Of advising mankind, in a
phrase peculiar to photographers, to
look pleasant" whatever be their state
and condition, and to insist that even
aching hearts should be carried beneath
smiling countenances. Yet just as there
are people who object to those regions
where perpetual sunshine prevails and
where clouds and storms are unknown,
SO there are those who would find mo-
notonous an ever cloudless counte-
nance. As an antidote to melancholy

In such commercial and Industrial
age as this it is natural that discussion
Of the old question as to the value Of Il
college or academic education in bust
ness should be revived with intensi-
fled earnestness. Instead of resting con-
tent with the generally accepted fact
that the college education embellishes
our common life with the refinements
Of liberal culture, the public now ap-
pears to be seriously demanding an an
swer to the question as to whether 1t
really has any bearing upon individual
success or upon the Industrial and com
mercial progress Of the race. President
G. Stanley Hall Of Clark University has
said that ut depends largely upon what
kind Of an academic course Is taken"
On such q scale, he fancied, the old
classical course would mark very low
while "sOme of the modern technical
and commercial courses and many Of
those in the sciences would mark very
high" In his recent inaugural address
President Remsen Of Johns Hopkins
University calls attention to the fact
that the connection between the prac-
teal work of the world and the work car
ried on In the laboratories Of the univer-
stiles is more intimate than Is general
ly known. The most striking example
of the practical value of education in
the material development Of nation
has been seen In the growth of Ger
many during the last twenty years.
The German universities, through their
great investigators and the facilities
they have afforded for original re-
search. President Remsen believes
have done more for Germany's indus
trial advancement than any other sim
gle agency President Remsen in
stanced the wonderful development Of
the contributions made to the worlds
industrial progress by the university
laboratory. The university, through
patient research and experiment. I'M
locked from this apparently useless by
product elements that have not only
have been the source Of great wealth.
1t is doubtless fact that very many of
the great advances of recent years in
manufacture and commerce may be
traced to the patient investigation of A
university professor in university
workshop. We are now entering upon
the greatest industrial age in all human
history, when all the civilized nations
are coming into free competition in the
worlds markets. In this world wide
industrial contest the nation will be sn-
premp where the manufacturer is put
in closest touch with the forces of ma
ture, which are the sources of wealth,
and in this work the university labora-
tory will be more important factor
than ever before.

burned.

The loss will be, including the car

The Speed is valued at $40 Ooc aud

The Speed was to have re-entered

June J..
A peculiar thing is that several river
men, after the City of Pittsburg dis
astcr about a month ago, predicted
that the Speed would be the next to
burn. They had no reason for the
prediction, but something seemed to
tell them that the Speed was doomed.
The Speed passed down from Gin
cinnati about ten days ago, and was at
the Paducah wharf for quite awhile.
