all his honor and glory. It was a
sight, magnificent and inspiring, to
see these distinguished men, famous,
worthy of honor, handsome.
The president of the college then
read from his list another name that
Harvard wished to honor. His deep
full voice pronounced these words:
"Charles Proteus Steinmetz, the
foremost expert in applied electric
ity of this country, and therefore of
the world"
From out of the bank of seats
there arose a dwarfsh, misshapen
figure, a tiny man, humpbacked, his
face peering out between his should
ers, his black hair bristling all on
end. He bowed smiling and with
the dignity of the others took his
seat.
The applause that followed shook
the vast concourse. Every one felt
the meaning of the bestowed honor.
Every n thought of electricity, the
greatest factor of this scientific age;
of telegraphs, trolley cars, electric
lights, of the lightning serving for
men; electricity, king of sciences;
and this tiny man, "half made up"
like Sh~akespeare's Richard, king of
magic.
"The foremost expert in applied
electricity in all the world" spoke
then and there a wordless grafton.
Take good cheer, boys cast down with
n isshapen bodies, of ill-moulded fea-
lures, boys who pine over appear
ances that they fain would change.
Take good cheer. It is deeds, not
looks, that count. Handsome is as
handsome does."-Garland P. Fer
rell, in October American Boy.

An Grafton Unspoken.

At the recent commencement ex-
ercises at Harvard University oc-
Cured an incident full of instruc-
ton for those who saw it. 1t is often
the habit of boys to judge of things
by the way they look; but as n
grows older he learns that appear
ance is not all. Handsome is as
handsome does" is an adage that be-
m clearer as one learns more of
the world.
At these exercises at the big col
lege there were over one thousand
students ready to receive diplomas;
their friends who had come from all
over the country; besides scores of
wise men and great. President Eliot
conferred honorary degrees upon
many distinguished guests who we're
present. One of these was Theodore
Roosevelt, President of the United
States, who arose In the fullness of
all his sturdy manhood and bowed
his thanks. There were scientists,
inventors, famous preachers, great
judges, diplomats and statesmen.
Once when a name was called, a
soldier in full uniform bedecked with
gold braid and shining buttons arose.
He was a surgeon of the army, and
was thus honored by Harvard, be-
cause he has discovered how to check
the dreadful scourge, yellow fever,
an enemy hat mows down more sol
diers than the bullets.
Each of these men, seated in a cir
Gle on the stage before the vast au-
dience, arose in turn and bowed in

what kind of a fellow that new boy

watched for two rainy days. Then
he went out to play; so did the new
boy. Bob's ball rolled Franks way;
he tossed it back and the play began.
"I think he is a good kind of a

Bob said at bedtime. "He plays fair,
and he laughs when things happen,

"I wonder if you are a good kind

"For my boy doesn't always laugh,

"I wonder what he is saying to his

Some so years ago Roger, GELS

BerliOz was present, and also the mu.

In the early hours of the morning
Fiorentino got up, ''to stretch his

''He is a formidable rival. Ee is in
my way as a musical critic"
Berlioz turned pale and shook with
fear, but his host assured him that
the gun was not loaded.

He dropped to the ground from his
uncomfortable position, for he was
anxious if possible to catch sight
of the visitor when he came out.
With this intention he slipped
around to the front of the house and
in the shadow waited.
Presently the door opened quietly,
a man popped out, his hat pulled
down over his eyes so that the eager
watcher had no opportunity to get
good glimpse of his face. Then the
man stepped into the middle of the
road, looked about him for mo-
ment, and set off at brisk pace
down the street.
Job Hendricks had just seen him
disappear among the shadows when
from the other direction man sud-
denly appeared, running and out Of
