nave not realized that it meant any
thing more than the idea of a dog get

u the best recent scholarship applied

meant much more than that. He
meant, Il will go out and try myself;
Will affiict myself; l will ascertain

Even good men, sanity men, when
they fall into trouble, blame some one
else. If they are out of work they
blame some one else. If they lose
money they blame another man. let
neighbors know that the whole re-
sponsibility is with the accuser. If
you lind a person always bemoaning
the way he is misused by other peo-
pie, you may know that you cannot
trust yourself in his power. He is
ever kicking some one else. If Samson
went out and kicked himself he did
remarkable thing. 1t was so aston
lshlng because it was so against the
usual history Of human life. We al
ways wish to find some excuse, and
yet the heart that is always seeking
exoneration is cowardly. But he was
brave man, and his very bravery
may have led him to go out and fog
himself instead Of some one else. That
is the Interpretation that seemed to
be so new and reasonable-that this
going out and shaking himself" was
not simply to try his muscles, but
meant that he went out to punish him
self for losing his good name and los
ing his strength
People often blame themselves in a
general way, and will say, Il am to
blame," but will not get down and ex-
anime themselves to find out exactly
what the basic fault was.
The man who wishes to succeed in
life Is the man who invites the most
critical criticism. You can never
trust the criticism Of your enemy. nor
can you trust the fiattery of your
friends. But the desire of the man
of wisdom is to get from all sources
every possible criticism that will make
his work or life more perfect.

MEN FOR THE TIMES,
By Rev. John B. Whitford.

the wilderness men Of might, and men
of war fit for the battle."-I. Chron.

David by his military prowess. DO.
etic gifts, dramatic movements and
noble generosity drew around him a
motley crowd Of men. Every one
that was in distress, and every one
that was discontented gathered them
selves unto him." Only a man of cleo
trio courage and decision, mighty IN
intellect and will, could have collect
ed and compacted into an organiza
ton such diverse elements. Only a
man of unquestioned greatness could
have wrought such an achievement.
And what is great man but an ag-
gregation of capacities, concentra-
tion of intensities perceptions and
passions compressed into an indivld-
ual?
We are living in the midst of peril
GUS and sitting times. While one age
does not differ essentially from an
other, yet each age has certain char
acteristics, for good and evil do not al
ways assume the same forms. The
characteristics, tendencies and exIg
ences of the present are not identical
with those of other days. Varied are
the pictures Of the age. We have dark
and awful pictures of degeneracy.
disaster and utter ruin. And we
have pictures so radiant and winning.
so full Of enchanting colors, worthy
of Raphael in his prime. But he who
sees the age as it is must avoid the
extremes of optimism and pesslmism.
The age is marked by a change in the
fundamental thoughts of intelligent
believers. A religious revolution is
on. The spirit of inquiry, of investl-
CATION, of historic criticism is rife.
Men are no longer the recipients of
stereotyped opinions. Traditional and
inherited ideas are thrown into the
crucible. Masks are lifted, shams ex-
ploded, frauds detected, errors ex.
posed, and balloons, of conceit and
vanity are pricked by the needles of
truth.
AS We think of many in the desert.
amid blowing, binding sand, we
should try to be an oasis to them.

and sparkling, eat theI ripened figs
and rest beneath the foliage of the
palms. Only in this way can we shape
the new age of justice and build the
new city of God.

year, and record that nearly equals
that of all the railroad accidents Of
the two countries, generally considered
the most fruitful source by far of IA

was not an extraordinary one. The in
crease in deaths by fire has been grow

nine lives lost by fire every year for
every 100000 of population. In 1900
the ratio was eight, and in 1890 it
was five. Unless something drastic is
done, what will be the ratio in 1850?

Virgil put the whole sex into their

her father, lover or husband, she

out of her teens before she is called
upon to decide momentous questions.
Shall she go to college? Shall she be-

tent herself with the limitations of
her home? Shall she marry? Shall
she give her deepest interest to club

The miser is the poorest of men,
for while he lives solely for self. he

man. He has money, but denies him

In making money the end, instead of
the means, of life he narrows his pur-

of one miser nor a thousand can ever
shake the firm foundation upon which
rest wholesome saving and thrift. The
soul of thrift is saving. Most men
who have learned the trick of making
millions at single deal first learned
how to double their pennies. To the
man who would become rich the
habit of saving, once firmly fixed, is
his most important capital.

A Norwegian explorer mas at last
achieved what daring men Of almost
every civilized nation have been at
tempting for more than three cen
turtles. Capt. Roand Amundsen has
completed the northwest passage
without change of cars" or ships.
The fact Of the existence of a north
west passage was discovered long ago.
Earlier explorers succeeded in travers-
ing it. But to do this they had to
leave behind the vessels on which
they had entered the Arctic ocean.
walk some distance over the ice, and
get aboard vessels which had come
from the opposite direction. Capt.
Amundsen has won the distinction Of
being the first man in the history Of
the world to navigate the arctic re-
gion from Davis strait to Behring
strait in one and the same vessel
He has realized the dream of ages.
When Columbus sailed from Spain in
1492 it was with the aim of finding
toward the west shorter and safer
route to India than the one around
the Cape of Good Hope He thought
when he reached America that he had
accomplished his object. Years passed
before it became known that what he
had found was not new route to the
east but new world. Efforts then
began to find northeast and northwest
passages from Europe to Asia. Adolf
Erik Nordenskjold, Russian, COM
pleted the northwest passage in 1879
The first great advance in the explora-
ton Of the northwest passage was
made by John Davis, who discovered
the strait named after him in 1856
Henrik Hudson followed him in 1907,
and In 1916 Baffin reached latitude
II degrees 45 minutes, record that
stood unequaled for 236 years. There
was a great revival of arctic explora-
ton In the early part of the nine
teenth century. Sir John Franklin
was sent by the British government
with two ships and 100 men express
ly to make the Northwest passage.
Nothing was heard of the party from
1916 to 1854, when 1t was learned that
1t had perlshed. Numerous eXpedi-
tions We're sent out for it's relief,
among them that of Robert Mcclure,
who passed through Bering strait in
1850 and went eastward as far as
Melville island. Here it was necessary
to abandon the ship In the spring
of 1854 Mcclure and his crew were
met. and rescued by McClintock's par
ty, which had come up from the east,
and taken back to England. Mcclure
was thus the first to make the North
west passage. For his achievement
he was knighted by the British govern.
ment, promoted to captancy In the
navy, and highly honored by scien.
tific societies. The early arctic ex-
ploratlons were commercial in object.
1t long since became certain that
Northwest passage would be useless
for commercial purposes, because 1t
would be practically unnavigable. Ex.
plorations were continued for reasons
Of sentiment and Of science. Capt.
Amundsen's voyage is of great inter
