ton. Keep the eyes and ears open, the
nina ready and alert to receive new
wisdom. Let one really do this for one
whole day and he will be surprised how
much he will learn before night.
we let so many minor, trivial things
divert our attention from those thines
that are of vital interest. We give at.
tention to what pleases us, suits our
pet ideas, prejudices and whims. We
attend to those things that amuse and
pass the time rather than those that
save the time by opening up the way to
what is good, and true, and beautiful in
human life. Only too often do we de-
serve the witty rebuke of Dr. Holmes
when in the Autocrat of the Breakfast
Table he says: 81 know we'll enough
there are some of you had great deal
rather see me stand on my head than
use it for any purpose of thought"
AS one cannot see far when he stoops
down, neither can he educate himself
with his attention upon lesser interests
1t is not the part of man to stand on
his head-use his mind for passing
amusement-b to keep it erect, where
it ought to be, at the full height of his
stature, that he may see the more wide
ly, and looking over all surrounding
VhAhSc, OllNuLAoVduCCo, COuulItOilO, OP-
portunities, events and consequences,
he may the better judge the right way
to 60 and wisely direct his steps.
The world life itself is everywhere
one great university, Astounding in wis
dom, with open doors to all who will
give it their earnest, interested atten-
ton. All our neighbors, fellow citizens
and companions are our classmates in
the great school of life. AS Humboldt
says: Books, society, government, re-
ligion, are but the scaffolding to build a
man. The earth holds up to its Maker
no ripe fruit but the finished man."
But that process of finishing depends
upon the individual will to use the scat
folding-the means of unfolding and
laying open to the sunlight of truth
and divine purpose all the faculties
and powers of body, mind and soul, that
they may develop into the utmost SEN
sibility, so that they shall respond to
the slightest stimulus of everything of
good in the universe, the finest and
noblest impulses of the human heart be
quickened and disciplined to be and do
the best, growing day by day into the
full stature of the finished man, in the
likeness of the Divine Countenance.

A W|NTERP0RT WRITER.

lanes Otis Kaler aud His Books for Boys.
Philip Willis Mcintyre is writing for
the Portland Sunday Times a very in
teresting series of articles on Maine
authors, from which we quote as fol
lows:
Another great fayorite with boys,
and writer WHO has also furnished
notable amount of amusement and en-
tertainment for their elders, is James
Otis kaler. He comes fairly within
the range of this series, for he is a
sojourner in South Portland and his
postoflice address is this city.
Mr.. kaler was born in Winterport,
Me-, March 10, 1913, and is the son of
Otis and Maria (Thompson) Kaler,
grandson of Benjamin Thompson and
son, the celebrated natural philosopher
Institution in London, and going to
Germany become Count Rumford of
the Holy Roman Empire,
James Otis kaler early showed an
aptitude and developed a liking for
newspaper work, and at the youthful
age of II secured position on the
Boston Journal, where he acquitted
himself with credit and gained promi-
hence among his fellows. He con-
tinued in journalism until 1880, when
he struck the gait he has followed ever
since with delight to the young and
/ with profit to himself-ths Of writing
books for boys; which occupation has
been frequently proved to be more
gainful one than that of journalism.
| His first juvenile book was 'Toby
Tyler" written under the pseudonym
of "James OTIS by which name he is
still most Familiarity known. He has
also contributed under the same pen
name to st. Nicholas and other periodi-
cal publications for the young.
| His first success was followed by
Raising the Pearl" and in rapid sue
cession by Tim and Tip" Jenny
Wren's Boarding House." and Teddy
and Carrots" Up to 1891 he had writ
ten 50 juvenile books and since then
has swelled the total to a round nun
bred. Mr.. Kaler has dipped into the
: fountain of history and successfully
adapted the historical novel to boyish
tastes, producing tales that men also
! read with interest, like "When Israel
/ Putnam Served the King" THE Boys
of Fort Schuyler" THE Braganza
DldiuOuu, AZ tne oleSe VI quebec.
and Across the Delaware" With
these may be Joined the trlogy with
Perry at Lake Erie 'With Porter in
the Essex" and "With Preble at Tr:.
poli"-the last story of more than pass
ing entertainment to Portland people.
He has also written a sequel to his
| first successful book, entitled "Mr
| >tubb's Brother" continuation of
toby Tyler" Mr.. Kaler has been an
extensive traveller, passing many va
cation in Europe, and on the Asiatic
and African shores of the Mediterra-
mean, where he has caught many dash
es of local color such as add to the in
terest of his ''Preble in Tripoli.'
In 1888 Mr.. Kaler married Amy l..
| Scammon, an accomplished woman of
congenial tastes, and since then he has
made his home in this vicinity. His
| tales are vivaciously told, with sutli-
| cient adventure to suit boyish cravings
but do not run into unreality or extrav-
agance. In the historical stories he ad-
heres as closely to facts as historical
novelistis ever expected to do-and far
closer than many do who write for old.

The Stonington Strike Settled.

SToNINGToN, Oct. 4. The union
quarrymen, who struck Monday be-
cause their demands for an eight-hour
day and recognition of the union had
been refused, returned to work today,
the employers having recognized the
union and granted an eight-hour day.
The agreement was reached through a
conference between P. j. Mccarthy of
Barre, VT, the national secretary of
the quarrymen's union, and the six
granite firms. The agreement, which
contains six articles and an arbitration
clause, goes into effect Nov 1st and is
made for 1-2 years, terminating at the
same time as that of the granite cut
ters' bill of prices. The manufacturers
retain the right to employ non-union
foremen, master mechanics and crane

Cruel Treatment of Blacks.

The Infamous treatment meled out TO
the black girls and aboriginal children
who live under the ''protection" Of the
British flag in Western Australia has
already been the subject of protests in
the British Parliament, and is again to
be made the subject of early debate in
the House of Commons. Nothing that
has heretofore been printed, however,
anproaches the actual facts disclosed IN
the report of DIR. Roth, the Queensland
protector of aborigines, the text OF which
has now reached this country.
Briefly put, the case stands thus The
wbite settlers are continually killing oil
the black mems staple food-the kanga-
roo. The aborigines are faced by Two
Observation-Disclosures or killing the
white mems cattle. No other provision
having been made foe them by the white
settlers who have dispossessed them, the
blacks, ignorant of the fact that 'hey
are committing any ofense, kill the
white mems cattle to avoid starvation,
Then the white mans armed ana
mounted police 'round them up, pu'
them in chains and carry them OIL 10

These girls are subjected to treatment
80 infamous that ii can only be binted At.
Shameful evidence as 10 the cruel IN
dignities to which these girls are subject
ed at the hands of the police and stock
men has been brought 10 light 10y Dr.
Roth. the commissioner appointed by
the commonwealth government to lnyes-
tigate the scandal. He shows beyond all
doubt that young black girls are out IN
chains, stripped, fiogged if they prove
awkward. and fiaced to submit TO iudig-
mites which should subject the Perpeira-
tors to 10 to 20 years penal servitude.
Armed and mounted police, accompa-
MED by armed native trackers, hunt the
blacks charged with cattle killing, arrest
ing, without warrant, as many as 80 at

ed for cattle killing. but they are COM
