old man to the CONDUCTOR notice
messenger with an emblem of mourn
ing on his hat"
Yes. | see" was the reply.
DO you know who he is mourning
for-father, mother, wife or child?"
mo sir"
Haven't asked him no questions
nor extended word of sympathy"
"Of course not"
And you don't appear to care req
cent what has happened to him. He
may have lost all he loved on earth at
one fell stroke, and yet your heart
isn't touched"
I'm not in the heart-touching BUSH
ness" replied the conductor as he
rang for stop. I'm conducting this
car for about S12 week and getting
blow-up on every trip, and it's all
can do to sympathize with myself
But was it that way when we used
to have horse cars?" asked the old
man, as he seemed to be thinking
backwards.
"Mebbe not"
mo, don't think it was. Horse car
conductors used to be touched and
yield up their sympathy, but electricity
has hardened everybody UP and the
fountains of pity and sorrow have been
closed. l feel the change in myself,
and I'm saying that 1 will drop off at
the next corner and get a glass of beer,
and the mourning man inside can con-
tinue to mourn and be hanged to him."

1t helps them to feel that they belong,
not only to a great world power, but to

goes into public life, to feel that his
first duty under all circumstances is to
his constituents and his country with
out any regard to the effect his con-
duct may have upon him personally in
carrying out the trust imposed upon
him.
Charles Francis Adams, son of John
Quincy Adams, began the practice of
law in 1920 after having lived in Wash
ington while his father was president.
He had as a young man some general
experience in public life, but he went
back to Boston when Jackson become
president. He says that Mr.. Webster.
who was then the great lawyer of New
England, advised him that as things
then were, the law was mans only
course" Mr.. Adams subsequently,
commenting on this advice, said that he
made up his mind that 'th- proper
course for him to adopt was to make
the law his profession, so as to rise in
character, and if anything better should
present, to take it, provided it was real
ly better"
The advice of Daniel Webster upon
which young Adams acted, doubtless
had great effect in preparing him for
the very important work he rendered
his country during the civil war as
minister to England, and at Geneva in
1872, when he represented the United
States as its arbitrator in settling the
Alabama questions. His steadiness of
Judgment, knowledge of international
law, and clear sense of justice enabled
him to confer in the most satisfactory
manner with Lords Palmerston and
Russell during the controversies in 1861
over the Trent affairs. An able man,
without legal training and experience,
at that important crisis, might have
taken a course which would have led
to war with England and the destruc-
ton of our Union"
| Mr., Harrison then referred to the ca
reer of Lewis Case, the great Ohio and
| Michigan lawyer, and the advice he
gave Mr.. Buchanan when secretary of
state in 1851, and his subsequent ad-
vice to the cabinet of Abraham Lin
| coin concerning the Trent affair. He
| then referred to the careers of Thomas
jefferson, the great Virginia lawyer,
Roger Sherman and John Adams, the
great New England lawyers, who, with
Jefferson drafted the Declaration of In
dependence. Subsequently he men
toned, among the other statesmen of
! the country who began their careers as
young successful lawyers Alexander
Hamilton, Daniel Webster and Henry
Clay, and the three martyred presi-
dents, Lincoln, Garfield and Mckinley.
