THE n1np ANp rHE MAN.

We sometimes think that what we
call instinct in the lower animals as
guide and rule of living is vastly SUI
perior to what is termed intelligence in
man. 1t is probably true that none
other of all created beings lives so lit
tie in eocord with the natural laws in
tended to govern his being as man.
Compare man, for instance, with a
bird-say an ,oriole. The bird always
attains perfect development in size,
plumase and gift OF song. 1t is true
to one mate, loyal ever to the family
home, unremittingly faithful in the
care of its little ones. 1t does not try
to build a nest like crow or a spar
row, but al.ays constructs beautiful
the dropping limb Of some tail tree.
The bird never becomes insane, never
gets drunk, never commits suicide,
never robs its fellows, never organizes
in force to kill off others of its kind,
always adjusts itself with the greatest
nicely to varying climatic and food
conditions and, in a word, without
seeming effort lives an absolutely per-
feet bird life, while the chances are
that the man before whose door the
bird builds its nest and sings its song
is wholly out Of tune and harmony
with all the law of his being, and in
stead of living perfect life like the
bird he makes either stupid farce or
wretched tragedy of living.

down at least four inches, then drag

now SHALL HE INVEST $4,000,

A bricklayer who has worked foI
many years at his trade and saved uE
$4,000 wants to know whether it il
best for him to let his savings remain
in his local bank and draw per cent
interest or whether it would be better
for him to invest the money in farm,
the. object sought being to husband
this money for his use in old age. Il
his money invested with the bank
draws only 4 per cent and has to pay
taxes, as most of this class of property
now has to, he will get less than 8 per
cent net for an income. The $500
would buy choice eighty acre i'm
proved farm near where he lives, which
would, either rented out on shares or
for cash, bring in much larger re-
turn, saying nothing about any possible
further advance in the value of the
land If anything, the money in the
farm is safer investment than in any
bank certificate of deposit. If the case
was ours, we should buy the farm and
take the chances.
