Hawthorne and En- ersor.
From The Atlantic.

From The Atlantic.
Hawthorne and Emerson were neigh
bors, but not intimates. When they
walked together in Concord they dis
cussed the weather and the crops, but
not philosophy, nor religion, nor poll
tics. Oftener they we're silent, as great
men, Who know each other as such,
can afford to be. Tennyson and Car
lyle once sat together of an evening for
three hours, smoking, and neither ut
tering a word, except Carlyle's good
night: "Come again, Alfred we have
had a grand time" This aloofness
from men, and at the same time that
power of dragging to light the hidden
secrets-of their souls, is the inexpl,ca-
BILE gift of genius; it has an eye of its
own enc glance and it looks the man
through and through.
Had Hawthorne lived anywhere
where conscience and Jaw had full
recognition and sin was possible, he
would have written in the same strain
AS in The Marble Faun, where Don
atello serves his purpose as well as
Dimmesdale. The crims and Its effect
in each belong to the general field OF
ethics, where sin reveals its nature In
that are common to
all men. Indeed, he has but enc deep
and permanent interest; the play OF
under sin. He is a studen,
of the soul. He watches Its play as
biologist watches an animal under
varying conditions but in each case it
is the study OF soul-not degraded
but only wounded, as it were, and
while it is keen to feel, and while the
good and evil in it are full of primal
energy.

Where Heaven Is.

A minister one day preached upon
heaven. Next morning he was going
to town and met one of his old, wealthy
members. The brother stopped the

II Don't Care. !"

Bishop W. F. Mallalieu in Epworth Herald.
1 don't care,' has run many a ship
ashore" It is an old proverb. None
truer was ever written. II don't care"
has been the ruin Of many young
man, OF many a young woman. The
spirit that finds expression in these
short words involves the certainty OF
present loss and eternal wreck.
II don't care.'' 1t means blind eyes
that are wilfully closed. 1t means deaf
ears that will not hear. 1t means that
the counsels of experience and wisdom
are rejected. It means that the voice
OF conscience Is disregarded. 1t means
utter recklessness as to consequences
It means, In the case of not few, the
loss of all that is best and noblest in
human life.
The careless soul is in the greatest
danger. In such world as this safety
can be assured only when the Utmost
watchfulness il combined with the
most earnest dependence on divine
help. But watching and praying will
not avail. There must be constant as
piration for all that is pure and good
and holy. With such asplratlo
there must be unrest, an unrest that
absolutely refuses to be satisfied with
present attainments.
The ideal is pictured to the soul Of
the thoughtful person. Unrest and as
pirations are excited then comes the
question of action. If for single mo
ment the young man or young woman
is bewildered with the vanlties OF earth
deluded by it's enticements, entanglee
in.its snares, and bids farewell to un
rest and aspiration with the aw1u
words. II don't care p then hope die
and the good ar gels grieve.
But If with the unrest and asplra
ton there is combined a determined
and purpose!ul struggle for the reallza
ton of the brightest visions and thu
most exalted ideals, then victory come
la every battle of life. The sense 0
present triumph will send an exultan
thrill through the soul, and the assur
ance of the final coronation will max
Of life one glad and joyful song. TIL
care-takers are the winners on ever
battlefield. God and all good angel
keep watch and ward over ali such as

Right About Face

Young Peoples Weekly.
A man who did much for temper
ance during his lifetime was Edward
G. Dalayan, of Albany N. Y, and yet
he came near being one OF the victims
of strong drink. The story of his es-
cape, as he himself told it, illustrates
forcibly the necessity OF prompt decls-
ions in matters of right and wrong.
Young Davalan was a clerk in a
store and was in the habit of spending
his evenings with set of youths in a
resort where liquor was sold. One
evening on returning to the store
where he slept, rejecting on what be
had seen and heard and desired, the
thought that there was danger in the
course he was pursuing came over his
mind, and he said to himself, "1f l
continue to visit that house ] am ruin
ed" Still, on the ensuing evening he
went forth as usual. He paused on the
opposite side of the street. Before him
stood the house where his companions
were Assem- led. He struggled for a
few moments against the temptation.
Suddenly the thought came over him,
s'If I cross the street I am ruined. +"
Instantly he made the decision, and,
exclalming at the top OF his voice,
Fright about iace!" he turned, and,
Fastening back to the store. dropped
down on his bed, slept soundly through
the night, and arose with an improv-
ing conscience in the morning. He
ever afterwards considered the struggle
of that evening as the crisis of his lite,
and whatever good he accomplished be
traced back to the decision made by
him when, resolutely changing his
purpose, and suiting the action to the
word, he exclaimed, Fright about
face! !"
In reply to a question what had be-
come of those early companions, he
said "Of the fifty young men from
whom / then separated, leaving them
to enjoy the pleasures of that eating
drinking and gam bling establishment
forty four have already gone to destruct
ion. One, a most promising youth
and heir to great wealth, became sc
destitute and degraded that he would

terrible end. One, in state OF intoxi
| cation, fell head foremost from a piel
at Havre, France, and became imbed

rosed his sad and dishonored remains
to the public view. Others came to al
end, if less terrible, scarcely less sad.'
