]. NJ. Barrie, when a student at Ed
inburSh University, on many occa-
sions gave evidence of hat quaint and
delightful humor with which his ad-
mirers are familiar. In those days, as
now, smoking concerts-SympoSiums,
as they are called-were, as they are
still, q feature Of student life in the
capital, and it was in connection with
one Of these that the following met
dent occurred:
One student, distinguished for the
length Of his visage and the portentous
solemnity Of his manner, had been
called upon to make a few remarks.
In lugubrlous tones he began by say
ing that he a neither q prophet nor
the son Of a prophet. What he intend
ed to say further was never known,
for at this point he was interrupted
by Barrie, who, in a voice OF we'll
modulated sympathy. thus addressed
him:
Don't take it too hard, old man.
Although you are neither n prophet
nor the son Of a prophet, there is no
reason why you shouldn't be the faith
er Of one."
In the disorder that ensucd the sol
emn man resumed his seat, and was
heard no more that night.

a little village near Boston. He sold
the words and music for $25, and often
said that it was the easiest money that
he ever earned.
While strolling along the beach in
his little village, during the summe
days, Rev. Mr.. .Uford ofttimes noticed
an old wreck on the sands and often
wondered in his Imagination how the
Old boat happened to become wrecked
and stranded, and 1t called to his mind
the fact that many human beings were
going the same way q did the old
boat.
He held an open-air meeting on the
village green some time after this and
preached to men about their souls and
called attention to the wreck and Of

any who would listen to. his appeal.
Going home that night, be sat down
and in fifteen minutes penned the
hymn which now has been sung in q
languages and printed over 5,OOO,O 900
times. .-
Rev. Mr.. Unord penned the lines in
1886, yet to-day the song is as popu-
lar as when it was first sung in the
little Massachusetts, village nearly 20
years ago.
The author took a trip around the
globe . short time ago, ard in Japan.
China, Ceylon, italy and England
found incidents connected with his
song. In Honolulu he found the words

and sang 1t in English to the natives
IN the little church and the congrega-
ton then sang back to him in their

ART OF TRUNK PACKING.

With Some ExamDles of the Same
Set Forth by Mr.. Gumtree.
Every now and then" said MIR.
Gumtree, II read a piece In the papers
about the art Of trunk packing; old,
experienced men who have Travelled

MY business takes me away coca
slonally on trips that last three, four
or five weeks at a time, and when l am
about to start on one of these trips
Mrs. Gumtree packs my trunk. .
Mrs. -Gumtree, without question, Is
the greatest trunk packer that ever
lived, bar none, and l don't doubt that
she holds the same belief, for when she
has got all through packing she always
tells me that she doesn't believe l will
ever be able to get the stun back Into
the trunk again when I come home.
But she is the star packer, sure
enough. She puts in not only every
thing l want, but everything l ought to
have, adding to both, in quantity. a
certain percentage for emergency. SO
that nothing ever goes wrong or falls
short. And when it's all packed she
goes over it all to me In detail md
tells me where I'll find everything.
And l do find everything all right.
1t has never failed, and in due time
when I have got through with my
business and got ready to come home,
l do my. own little stunt Of packing for
the homeward trip. getting into that
trunk the stun that Mrs. Gumtree
thought l never could, but which l
never fail to do.
Can't ever get that stun back into

time and finally get the lock to onnect

know a little something about trunk

and that without the land he could do nothing; also he
forgets that he has invested in only half the equipment
necessary to running TIC farm in the best manner possible.
1t Is the idea that profits must &c divided at all that dis
couragcs this labor where in all logic the scheme was for
its epcoura cement.
There Is a New York house where the scheme is failing
every day, whether the chief owner knows it or not. The
house is interested in a peculiar speciality, and in the found
ing Of the concern the present business manager was one
of the chief promoters. Not until it was well on its feet
as a success did this manager think Of some stock for
himself. Then he made overtures to the one man who held
the majority of the stock, and was allowed to purchase
$1,000 in shares. Soon after he discovered that the prin-
cipal salesman Of the establishment, covering a consider
able and difficult territory, was drawing exactly his own
salary, and had been allowed to purchase $1,000 worth OF
stock on exactly the same terms as he.
Thus the whole scheme Is a failure unless it may be that
the greater encoura cement that might come to the salesman
is sufficient to overweight the sulks and discontinue Of the
business manager. At least the managers heart Is out OF
his work, far more than If he were dependent upon an
insufficient salary only. Yet this business manager would
be absolutely content were it not that he feels a less de-
serving man in the establishment Is doing as well as he.

the ? American people are two-fold:
Whether there should be any restric-
ton to immigration, and if 50 upon
what that restriction shall be based.
Self preservation, we are wont to say,
Is the first law of nature. The Aneri-
can republic exists for the illustration
and propagation ana the maintenance
of certain ideals of civic government
and of personal freedom. The inva-
sion Of a race which would destroy
these would be a sufficient ground for
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1906-01-26

rests upon the cornerstone Of the eternal righteousness,
and a race which by it's moral or religious standards would
assault these would strike at the foundations Of the repub-
lie; therefore some restriction Of immigration has in it the
essential equality Of equity.
I believe that a common law which would bear equally
upon all those various races and peoples that are knock
Ing at our doors would command the sympathy Of the
republic and the votes Of the upright men, but any pro-
posed legislation must have in it the essential notes of
equity and absolute freedom from racial prejudice.

A curious diversity Of religious b.

Stanley Of Alderley. The last previous
holder Of the title, a brother Of the

faith and was buried according to the
rites Of Islam. Another brother be-

Business success does not bring happiness.

perpetual wealth, and by the side Of him who
has it the millionaire who has it not is a pauper.
