" The heavy SHOWS and the deep

twelve feet high have been cut
through. Through these cuts one

Notable Centennial

One hundred years ago Sunday
April I'd, in the little village of Odense,
In Denmark, was born child, who,
as man became known the world
over, IN multitude of happy homes
where there are children, brought up
as children ought to be on fairy
stories, which constitute much of the
delight OF being child. Fairy stories
are the first mental pabulum we have
to feed upon and through their me
dunn comes the first conception of
bravery and courage, manliness and
beauty; for there il always the prince
who Is strong and handsome the
beautiful princess beset with dragons
or some other frightful monster
sometimes a black and hideous will
lain, much worse than a dragon; t1ere
are godmothers, who ride in pumpkin
or crystal charIots humble, but
pretty serving wenches suddenly
transformed into Processes lilies
and roses that talk birds that not
only sing sweetly, but also dance !;
horrible talking, walking spiders and
serpents that make chills run down
the childish spine ugly FAIRIES. lovely
FAIRIES; fairies in coral caves and en-
chauted castles fairies deep down in
the bosom of mighty rivers and high
up in the rosy clouds of sunset.
Where would childhood be-in what
sort of a world-if there were no fairy
stories to while the happy hours
away to be read out of a book, or
told by word of mouth, by a fond
mother or nurse ?
This child, born on the 2nd of April,
1905, WAS Hans Christian Andersen,
and, with the exception of 1.-THE Ara
ban Nights" no fairy stories have ever
been written which have been 50 uni
versally known and circulated as his
Andersen 8 father was poor cobbler,
without means of giving his son an
education, but the boy liked to read,
aud the boy who likes to read man
ages always to get an education
somehow or other.
Early in life young Hans left his
native village and went to Copenna-
gen, where he was employed for a
time about the theatre, but spent as
much time "a possible in the library
OF the city and finally a nobleman
took note of him and helped him
somewhat towards an education,
though he never attended unlver-
sity.
He soon began to write at first
semi dramatic pieces which were never
and then stories for child
rem. In this latter he seemed to fl d
his meter, for he kept at it, and, In
1886 published his first volume of
tales, most of them fairy
stories. Ia one of these volumes is
the story of The Ugly Duckling,"
written in 1928, and the best known
perhaps of nvthing he ever wrote.
L. is said to embody considerable OF
his own experiences, for he was a very |
homely lad ; tall, lank, ungainly aad
unprepossessing, but with q gentle
heart Of gold.
His stories for the young were wi a
y appreciated, copied and tran lated.
and he was enabled to crafty his
chief psssion-that for travel. He
visited all parts of Europe, delight
ing especially in Italy and resided in
England during a part OF the 40's.

The Sins OF His Fathers

Something, in fact most, of the
trouble now overwhelming the Gar

of his fathers. He could not we'll dis
claim responsibility without resignir &
his Office, and this is even less fle
quent in Russia than elsewhere. In
Poland therapacity of Catherine III 8
his unavoidable Inheritance. TT
Finnish bomb-throwers trace their
luminosity to a period prior to the
present reign. Nihilism, in it's latest
manifestations, runs back through
deviating channels to the time OF
Nicholas l. With 80 many converg-
ing streams of influence, uniting with
the sudden warlike disasters, it will
be one of the miracles of our time if
the great ikOn of the Russian autoc-
racy is not swept away with the tide.
The one anchor that yet holds is
the reverence of the peasantry. That
this is slowly breaking, disturbances
in many of the rural districts make
sufficiently clear. The name of the In.
stitution may be retained, as the
form of the kingship is still retained
in England, but the substance of the
Carbon has already been dissipated.
Nicholas would not, nor could he, en-
force the bitterly repressive measures
which were the uniform policy of his
father, Alexander III.
The truth is, as Mark Twain almost
too bitterly points out, that while
Nicholas III. may transmit to his de-
scendants the CLOTHES" of the Office,
the medieval and incongruous figure
of the monarch whose will was above
all law has already become moribund,
and is merely, at the present time,
awaiting interment. - Philadelphia
