The best thing that Emerson mas left us
is his spirit, fine and high, stern and sweet.
He took life in a royal way and bore him
self toward the eternal mysteries with
rene courage and dauntless hope. His es-
says. which are his most characteristic
work, have their chief value not as revela-
tons of the moral order of life. not as dis
coveries of the final meaning of things, but
disclosures of his own spirit. There is
in these essays an immense mass of truth,
uttered in picturesque and memorable
words; there is in them also immense
mass that is not true. The Emersonian hit
and miss are upon every page, and side by
side with a golden and perfect sentence
one finds sonorous eccentricity. The origin
of this strange compound OF oracle and i'm
position in Emerson lies in the confessional
character OF his writing He speaks from
within. and his congratulations hit or miss
according as his personal experience en-
bodies a law of humanity a mere lido
syncrasy. That Emerson speaks so often
and so royalty for man Is his great dis
tinction; that he speaks so frequently for
the idiosyncratic, the isolated and vain is
his chief fault. We have a right to hold
him at his best, and through the richness

Consider carefully before you say a
hard word to man, but never let a
chance to say good one go by.
Praise judiciously bestowed is money
invested.
Never learn anything about your
men except from themselves A good
manager needs no detectives, and the
fellow who can't read human nature
can't manage it. The monograph
records Of fellows character are
lined in his face, and a mans days
tell the secrets of his nights.
Be slow to hire and quick to fire.
The time to discover incompatibility
of temper and curl-papers is before
the marriage ceremony. But when
you find out that you've hired the
wrong man, you can't get rid of him
too quick. Pay him an extra month,
but don't let him stay another day.
A discharged clerk in the Office is
like splinter in the thumb-a center

Never threaten, because threat is

convenient to meet, but if you don't
make it good it hurts your credit.
Save threat till you're ready to act,

Halifax, n. S.-Three out of IS are
all that's left of the crew of the clip.
per fishing schooner Gloriana.
The schooner had been fishing off the
eastern end of Sable island and start
ed in for Canso, n. 5. The weather
was very thick and suddenly, without
the least warning, she struck the
rocks off Dover, at a place known as
Thrum cap, near White point.
The survivors are at Canso town,
and are being cared for by the U. S.
consul there.
Their names are Eugene Lablanc,
Frank NickersOn and John Bischer,
and they tell a thrilling tale OF the
wreck. their miraculous escape and
how their comrades met their doom.
An attempt was made to escape in
the dories but they were smashed as
soon as they were launched.
The vessel drifted into the shore
Leblanc, Nickerson and Bischer
jumped from the jibboom on to rock.
The vessel then turned side on to the
rock. The seas were washing over
her and washed several of the crew
overheard.
Their cries could be heard, but there
was no possible way to save them.
They were seen clingng to the rig
ging till daylight. The vessel then
went to pieces.
The disaster is one of the worst that
has occurred on the Nova Scotia coast
for several years.
During all this time the sea was
making a clean breach over the YES
sell but a line was got ashore and
made fast to rock. but the surginS
of the wreck broke the line and this
means of escape was also lost. The
crew by this time began to let go, one
by one being swept into the sea. Some
got into the rigging and held on there,
begging to be saved.
Later. about daylight the spars went
over the side, carrying the poor fel-
lows with them.
One man clung to the anchor stock
after all the rest had gone, but he, too,
by the survivors in the dim light when
battling for his life in the angry wa
ters near the rock, but he soon gave
up the struggle.
The survivors were powerless to rem
der assistance and remained on the
spot till they saw that all hope for
the rest was gone.
They then made their way across ii
rocky barren and came to Little Do
YER, near Casno, and found that the
vessel Had struck near a small rocky
island known as Thrumb cap, one of
the toughest and most dangerous on
the coast. there being no shelter from
the sea rocking in from the ocean. and
the granite cliffs and lodges making
short work of any vessel that happens
to come in contact with them.
