Educating Ones Self.
By NEWELL DWIGHT HILLS.
In Success.

It is unreasonable to suppose that
no one but college graduate can be
educated. In the broader meaning
of that much abused word. II
young man or young woman is
wholly undecided as to his or her
future work. four years college
course may help to decision, but
il one is determined to follow a
special line of work. he can make
more rapid progress outside col
lege. sometimes. than in one. II,
for example, he has chosen litera-
ture as profession. he can study
under a tutor in the subjects he de-
sires and progress twice as fast as
in college. The courses in all our
un yersities are calculated foro7a
mediocre student, who probably
gives more time to athletics and
outside matters than to study. An
ambitious young person, who is anx-
ious to do something in the world,
has to drag along with the others,
however willing he may be to forge
ahead. With tutor. or home study,
he can push along as rapidly as he
is. capable of doing. with no one to
hold him back. 1t is possible to
enter almost any profession after
course OF home study without a col
lege diploma. have often heard
lawyers assert that those members
of the bar who studied in offices
were invariably the most successful
ones in practice. They not only have
the theory OF law, but also know it
in operation.
Some educators once made out a
list of hundred great men who
lived in England during the half
century from 1850 TO 1900. They
were principally men OF the first
genius. like Darwin. Huxley. Tyn-
dali, and Ruskin. They were great
ly surprised when it was discovered
that only twenty of the hundred had
received college esucations. The
others were self-educated. or had
studied under tutors at home. This
must have been more than coinci-
dence, and to my mind it is n re-
markable commentary on the sue
cess of the modern system of edu
cation. 1t means that the young
man who can only study at night Is
under no handicap in the race for
success because he is unable to
spend four years in college. It is
possible that he stands a better
chance than the college graduate.

A Sacred Chinese Coin.

One of the coins of the Chinese En-
peror Kanghi is very much sought after
by the Chinese. who use it in making
rings for the finger. II Is slightly Diff
ferent from the other cash issued under
the same Emperor in the form of one
of the characters that indicate the reg
nal period. The Chinese call it "Lo-
han-cash," the word Lo-han being q
transcript in Chinese characters of the
Sanscrit word Arhan, venerable" the
name applied to the eighteen attendants
of Buddha, who are frequently seen
ranged along the two sides of the prin-
cipal halls in Buddhist temples.
The tradition is that while the En-
peror was intimately associated with
European missionaries he became i'm
bued with a feeling of contempt for
Buddhism, and illustrated this phase of
his faith by having a set of eighteen
brass Lo-han images melted down and
cast into cash. This brass is said to
contain considerable portion of gold;
hence the demand for the cash.-Boston

For those whose lives are crowded

Andscheer her heart with words of

When l have. time.
When you have time., The friend

May be beyond the reach Of all your

May. never know that you so kindly

To fill her life with sweet content,
When you had time.
Now is the time, All, friend, 40

To scatter loving smiles and words
of cheer
TO those around whose lives are now
so drear;
They may not need you in the COM

THE CITY.
By MARY FREDERICK FAXON.

Laughter and roses and dying mirth.
A cloak wrapped close round the scent
ed hair;
In darkened doorway mumbling there.
A beggar is crouching close to earth.
Gray, cold dawn DER the stretching
roofs;
Silence along the empty streets.
No sound. no stir the strained ear
greets,
Save the trick-track of horses hoofs.
Ghostly and large through the mistine
rain,
A market wagon and rumbling carts;
A shrill-blown whistle. the city starts.
.Awakes. thrills, throbs. and tolls again.

Twilight above the church's dome;
The cover of the night comes down.
And along the ways OF the swarmlng
town,
The crowds at dusk are Fastening home
A thousand lights are strung along
The brawling, bustling thoroughfares;
And above the yell OF hawker's wares,
Hand organ music and shrilling gong.
Midnight along the city street:
The glare of lamps and the fash Of
gems,
Fair, proud women with trailing hens
Wealth-born and gutter-born passing

VISITORS.
By DON MARQUIS.

An eere night: the shadows in the room
Pierced by the fires quick thristing blades of red,
Leap high them shuddering, fall; while from the goom
Steal softly forth the well lremembered dead.
Dumb trembling fearful, as the freight throws
It's last expiring CLEANS upon the wall,
Then gaining form, and heart and tongue grows
The room dim and the fading embers fall
The pulse leaps strangely at the mirthfu Tilt
OF familiar voices, and the
Start al the echoes of dead laughter split
Along the byways of forgotten years.
BY Faiths clear light or hectic Fancy's fire
Is it | these wraiths about my hearth9
. Does God indeed eer grant the souls desire
That longs to see the old, kind earthi
Towe'er that be- sweet ghosy company,
Thrice welcome here, and welcome, too, the train
OF mingled memories you bring to
OF buried joys and sorrows, mirth and pain.
Seen 'ganst the changing background of tie night
The old-time tenderness your faces
Ah, me- such love- unmerited, may smie
With more of force than reproaches bear,
Forgiving smiles be most poignant things
On lips, az bloodess, of the injpred dead
But yet far better all remorsefu stings
Than that these faces from the memory fed
With grief-charged Memory would not part.
Who is so bold he dares high value set
Upon forgefudness7 Not l, my heart
Shall rather bleed and revel in regret.
And so whene'er the hurrying winds of night
Shall watt thy wandering wings toward oncedear earth
..... Cease for space, pray, thy rhythmic flight
And fill the old-time places round my hearth.

THE ROSARY.
By ROBERT CAMERON ROGERS.

By ROBERT CAMERON ROGERS.
The hours I've spent with thee, dear
heart,
Are as a string of pearls TO me;
| count them over. every one apart,
My rosary.
Each hour a pearl, each pearl prayer,
To still! a heart in absence wrung;
count the beads unto the end, and
there
cross is hung.
Oh, memories that bless and-and burn.
Oh. barren gain and bitter loss!
I kiss each bead and strive at last to
learn
To kiss the cross,
Sweetheart.
To kiss the cross.

THE TWO GOSPELS.
By CHARLES P. NETTLETON.

Entranced with Beauty, Love made once so wise
Her votaries they writ a gospel, called
The gospel of the body, and enthralled
Thereby all eager ears, all wandering eyes.
o wondrous Greeks, who knew earth's treasures
Of Beauty, and our simple lore forestalled,
Not since your day-our workers half appalled,,
Work idly-has Time seen such victories.
Praise for the Greeks! And yet, a victory
Still incomplete and dumb, ten thousand times
Diviner, waits as earth's most perfect goal
The gospel of the body, that must die!
But deathless Beauty's full and finer chimes
Call US to write the gospel of the soul.
