Philadelphia, April 2s.-Much diver
sity of opinion was expressed to-day by
officials of the University of Pennsyl-
vania concerning Andrew Carnegie's
gift of s1O,OOO,OO0 as a pension fund for
aged college professors. Members of the
administrative department spoke of the
gift in terms of praise. Members of the
teaching force viewed the matter with
disfavor. .sza.. =5,..
DR.. John Bach McMaster, who holds
the chair of history at the University
of Pennsylvania, and who is one of the
best known historians in the United
States, expressed himself as directly
opposed to the principle of the gift.

what 1 have read, but don't like it."
he said. / don't believe in this scatter
ing of Carnegie libraries over the coun-
try, as he has been doing in the last
few years. 1t is not a good thing, and
/ don't like Mr.. Carnegie's methods.
, In the first place do not believe in
pension systems in general and | am
especially opposed to them in the teach
ing profession. It would be practically
the same thing as the police pensioning,
and it could not help but lower the
profession.

profession we do not do 1t with the ex-
pectation of making money; we have an
entirely different end in view. This pen
sion system would certainly lower our
standard.
II believe that in this and in all pro-
fessions, as in business, each man
should stand on his own basis and on
that alone. Personally would not ac-
cept such pension, but I think that it
might prove acceptable to the majority
Of the profession. l am speaking only
for myself. We have Carnegie libra-
ries' and Carnegie heroes now we are
to have Carnegie professors don't
like it,
DR.. Charles Custis Harrison, provost
of the university, took an entirely diff
ferent view of the matter, and seemed
much pleased with Mr.. CarnegiA's gem
erosity.
There are two results which will fol-
low this gift of Mr.. Carnegie's," he
said. The first result will be the pro-
vision of retiring fund for professors
after they are untitled for further ac-
tive service. s
IA .a.s d,
The second result, which consider
equally important, will be the stimula-
tion Of the work Of the professors and
instructors during the period of their
active work at an institution. AS they
will not have to fear for the future,
being assured a competency in old age,
they will be able to enter into their
work with much greater vigor and more

Before the monstrous wrong he sits him

One man against a stone-walled city of sin,
For centuries those walls have been

No chink, no crevice, lets the thinnest
arrow in.
He fights alone, and from the cloudy ram

A thousand evil faces gibe and jeer him.
Let him lie down and die; what is the right
And where is justice in a world like this?
But by and by earth shakes herself, inn

origin with the Chinese, The papyrus

paper at all, but simply the piths OF
the stem of plant cut into strips,
placed side by side and across each
other and pressed into a sheet, to
which the natural gum of the plant

Theorists Wrangle over Cause Of Lit
tie Ones self-Murder.
Several distressing instances of chill
dren's suicides have occurred In Ger
many since the autumn school term
began. This has brought on dis
cussion of the conditions of school
and home life and endeavors are be-
ing made to trace the cause of that
increasing feebleness of the desire to
live, which is affirmed the 1000
suicides of 1903 indicate. In Saxony
seven persons under IA committed
suicide in 19O1-19O2, and the number
rose to Fl in 1903
The causes of child suicide are re-
garded as being exceedingly subtle.
Socialists say existing economic con-
dltions darken life generally and
throw shadows ever the lives of the
children. The clergy declare it is due
to the absence of faith, the increase
of irreligion and the growth Of sensual
materialism. Critics of the school
system assert that children are fore
ed too much. An instance is given or
12-year-old boy who failed to do a
Latin exercise properly and was sent
home to his father. The boy, the mo-
ment he entered his fathers room,
shot himself In identical circum-
stances another boy threw himself out
of a window.

cldes in Germany during 18 years was

OLD FASHIONED FARE.
Hot Biscuits, GriddIe Cakes, PieS and
PuddInEA.

The food that made the fathers
strong is sometimes unfit for the chill
dren under the new conditions that our
changing civilization is constantly
bringing in. One Of Mr.. Bryan's neigh
bors in the great State of Nebraska
writes:
II was raised in the South. where
hot biscuits, griddle cakes. pies and
puddings are eaten at almost every
meal, and by the time located in Ne
braska l found myself a sufferer from
indigestion and its attendant ills--dis-
tress and pains after meals, an almost
constant headache dull, heavy sleepi-
ness by day and sleeplessness at night,
loss Of flesh, impaired memory etc, etc.
II was rapidly becoming incapaci-
tated for business when valued friend
suggested change in my diet, the
abandonment of heavy. rich stuff and
the use of Grape-Nuts food. fol-
lowed the good advice and shall always
be thankful that did so.
whatever may be the experience
of others, the beneficial effects of the
change were apparent in my case al
most Immediately. My stomach, which
had rejected other food for 80 long, took
to GrapeNuts most kindly; in a day
or two my headache was gone. began
to sleep BEAUTIFULLY and before a week
was out the scales showed that my lost
weight was coming back. My memory
was restored with the renewed vigor
that felt in body and mind. For three
years now Grape Nuts food has kept
me in prime condition, and propose 1t
shall for the rest OF my days.

Success.
Some eight or ten years ago young
Englishman replied to a friend who
had inquired how he was getting on:
Not at all, there is something the
matter with me and think l know
what it is, but it isn't in me to rem
edy it," He had come over here in the
hope of making a fortune or at least
Of winning for himself a fair degree
of success. He had gone to work for
a life insurance company and had not
been a success; he had secured a SIM
liar position with another company
and barely had been able to hold his
position and realized that he was max
ing no perceptible progress. He was
disappointed and his friend had sus-
pected as much.
"You see," he continued, you've got
to pat everybody on the back over
here to win, and that is something
/ can't do. I've tried my best to get
ahead, but / don't succeed"
A year or so later the young Eng
lishman and his friend were again dis.
cussing the same topic. The insurance
man was more discouraged than ever;
he had lost the second position and
had been obliged to begin almost at
the bottom, with another company. His
failure he attributed to the same old
cause-inabllity to "jolly."
"Why don't you learn" asked the
friend; you can do it as well as any
body If you make up your mind to
it."
you're right" replied the English
man, land I've made a resolve-Pm
going to pat everybody on the back
from now on, 10 matter how much it
goes against my natural incllnations.

his astronomical observations had
