HANDEL'S OBSTlNACY.
An Incident of the Great Musicinn's
ChilGhcoG Days.

An Incident of the Great MUSICIANS
ChilGhcoG Days.
\ child's obstinacy does not always
bring as fortunate results as was the
case with Handel, the great musician.
His extraordinary resoluteness as a
boy doubtless led to that great success
which crowned the later years of his
life. When he was some seven years
of age his father had occasion to visit
n son 10y former wife. who was valet
to the Duke of SAKE Weissenfels.
Travelling in those days-200 years ago
was tedious and expensive, and Dr.
Handel did not desire to he delayed
with the care of an infant" during a
journey which the demands of re-
sponsble profession would probably
make as short as possible.
But the future giant of music would
go. He cried, beloved and eventually
ran along the road after the vehicle,
until the tender feelings of the doctor
could refuse no longer In an evil mo-
iiiNhl LVl NO Jul oNhCult nt
took the child with him.
No sooner did the little fellow reach
the ducal residence than he gave rein
to his fancy on the keys of every in
strument that he found open. The re-
markable music that came from the
finger tips Of the child's hands was
soon the object of wonder and CONVEX
satiOn throughout The palace, and all
this was intensified when he secured
an opportunity Of touching the keys of
the chancel organ within the hearing
of the duke.
Such thrOb started from that chap
el organ when little Handlers tendriled
fingers chose the keys, and the soul of
the duke was touched as it never had
been touched before-truly a momen-
tous occurrence, since but for it Han
del's sacred music might never have
been written.
The dukes attention having been ar
rested, he inquired of Dr. Handel con-
cerning the child's future, and eventu-
ally succeeded in placing him for three
years study under Zachau, the organ
ist of Halle cathedral. This was the be-
ginning of Handlers musical education.

In the first months of the Russia Japan
war we had striking example of the me-
cessity for preparation and the early ad
vantage of those who, so to speak, "have
shingled their roofs in dry weather" The
virtue of preparation has made history
and given to us our greatest men. The
individual as we'll as the nation should
be prepared for any emergency. Are
you prepared to successfully combat the

IT must be conceded by every philo-
sophie and unprejudiced observer that
nothing that President Roosevelt can do
will serve to abate or lessen his dignity
in the eyes of the people, says the New
York Sun. 1t is the most inscrutable
and wonderful of his many gifts. Before
it the power and the right of impeach-
ment have become an obsolute tradition.
He can no more make himself ridiculous
than the Senate can resuscitate the pas
sions with which it assailed Andrew
Johnson. Not since the great figure that
held the whole stage of Europe hun
dred years ago has there been another in
history 80 magically endowed. There is
no mystery in all humanity like the mys-
terry of genius. Therefore, all criticism
is futile, and only acquiescence is the
safer and wiser part. 1t is Improbable.
if not indeed abiect folly, to urge that
while the President cannot make himself
ridiculous it is possible that he should
make the country ridiculous. 1t is the
same Providence that watches over both.

REFERRING to the project to provide
for the publication of the laws of the
Commonwealth, the Norristown Herald
illustrates its points by citing the act OF
April 20, 1905, which makes it unlawful to
throw waste paper, sweepings, ashes.
household waste, nails or rubbish of any
kind into any city, borough or township
street, and inquiries: "How many pepole
of Norristown actually know that if they
throw piece of paper upon the streets of
the borough they are breaking statute
and are making themselves liable to ar
restsnd perchance imprisonme thereby?
How many fishermen or hunters are
fully aware OF all the restrictions which
the law has imposed? 1t hazards the
opinion that "the game and fish wardens
would have much less revenue ii honest
citizens were kept posted by general
publication of laws"

A TREATY is in process of negotiation
between the United States and Japan
which it is thought will be acceptable
both to the Japanese authorities and to
the people of San Francisco. 1t is.believed
by many that the strongly conciliatory
language used by the President toward
Japan and the scoldng he gave San
Francisco was part of his scheme of di-
plomacy to get the matter adjusted with
out a serious rupture. Japan's represen-
tatiyes appear to take rational view of
the situation and manifest a willingness
to do anything within reason to facilitate
the conclusion Of treaty that will relieve
the stress on both sides.- -Punxsutawney

The Pnisnn of WenIth.

Great riches, carrying with them
enormous possibilities of self indul-
gence, may fairly be considered as a
sort of poison which ruins Il certain
proportion of those who are exposed
to it, though strong constitutions sur
vive. As rum destroys savlges, so
wealth tends TO destroy persons-espe-
cially young ones, whom use and train
ing have not gradually made immune
to Its effects. How that is may readily
be noticed in observing the effects Of
newly won wealth on the families of
the winners. 1t is a rare man and usu-
ally one very much blessed in his wife,
who can combine with the ability that
wins him riches the sagacity to train
children born in comparative poverty
so that they will benefit by rapid and
radical Improvement in his circum-
stances S. Martin in Allan
