Only by That Means Can the World
Be Understood.
Who have lived the most common
sense lives? Well, one such was the
Emperor Aurelius. A soldier, states
man, an administrator Of the highest
ability! And yet a man to whom the
highest worth was the capacity so
to see the complicated facts Of life in
their true relation as to be able to live
tranquil in any Circumstances. Another
person with a grand simplicity was
the slave Epictetus. The one teaches
us that a man can have as clear a Wis
ion and can live as heroically in a
palace as in a church. market place
or camp the other that lCwly estate
is no bar to the profoundest knowledge
of human nature and the most illus
trious manhood. A wiser word was
never written tLan that inscribed over
the portal of the Delphic oracle:
Know thyself!" For it is only by
self knowledge that one can know the
world and understand the lesson it
would teach mankind.-Boston Post

OWL HAS A STRONG RIVAL
Philip Godfrey's Affection of "Sun-
blight" Is Puzzling Problem to
New York Scientists.

New York.-"Sun blight" is the name
given the rare and curious affection
which has thrown a partial mantle of
blindness over Philip Godfrey and has
so changed the order of nature that in
the daylight he is cropping about with
non-seeinS eyes and the darkness makes
him as keen-eyed as the night providers
of the animal world
A few eminent specialists have told
Godfrey total blindness is to be his
fate
Philip Godfrey is Sc years old. He
is an expert jeweler and his splendid
eyesight was his chief asset in business.
On July % 1903. he walked out of his
shop into the brilliant sunlight and in
less than five minutes was compelled to
Grope his way bac,,, totally blind.
When the twilight came Godfrey
again began TO see clearly and Believed
the blindness that had come over HIN
in the day was caused by some ailnent
and had passed away. But when the
sun arose the next morning he w&s
again blind until rish-faN and tie ccnc
conditions have prevailed since. He ha
spent a fortune and searched the world
over for a cure

Intensive Culture Needed.

More intensive culture is needed in
Connecticut. The present system is
too much like hen set on too many
eggs; she matches none. So the farmer
with small capital and large farm,
harvests small crops at cost beyond
their value. He perhaps gives up max
ing butter and cheese, thus relieving his
family of the great burden of the dairy,
and the daughters seek other employ
ment. Selling milk, as too often con-
Quoted, is at the same time selling the
farm; i. g., robbing it of its fertility, so
that necessity requires the surrender of
field after field. This will always be
the result unless the drain is met by
purchase of corresponding amount of
cattle food. Good husbandry requires
this, but this carried beyond the re-
sources of the farm in pasture and rough
fodder is worse. The outlying pastures
may be kept up by raising young stock
of all kinds and especially sheep, to save
at least two profits on all food stuffs for
the family, except for -four and sugar

planning that plain answer to plain
question was never ELECTED from him.
"Pn wager dinners for the conf

Van Buren the simplest question that
can be thought Of he will evade di-
rect answer. Yes, and I'll give you
leave, too, to tell Van Buren, why you
ask the question, and that there Is q
bet depending Oh the reply"
This seemed fair enough. One OF
the party was deputed to go down and
try the experiment.
He found Van Buren,, whom he knew
well, in the saloon and said:
"Mr. Van Buren,, some gentlemen on
the upper deck have been accusing you
of noncommittalism and have just laid
a wager that you would not give a
plain answer to the simplest question,
and they deputed me to test the fact.
Now, sir, allow me to ask you, Where

he hesitated moment. then said:

A farmer one year laid his hand on

looking for. "Got a character?" asked
the farmer. The boy replied that he
had for the last two years been working
for Mr.. Muggs, the ironmonger-felt
sure that Mr.. Mugs would give him a
good character. "Well, 60 and ask Mr..
Muggs to come across and speak to me;

employer. Five minutes went by-ten
minutes. No Mr.. Mugs appeared.
Later in the afternoon the farmer met
the lad again. "Mr. Mugs never came
near me with that character of yours, !"
said the farmer. "No, sir" answered
the boy, 81 didn't ask him to-" Why
