was discussing elective college

sophomore years. he disapproves.
"A freshman OF 16 or H." said Pres
ident Schurman. "is too young to
choose for himself the courses best

enough. 1t will make mistakes.
I'm Its immaturity. its proneness to
error, 1t is like the mind of an old
man in my native Freetown. He,
though old. was mentally undeveloped.
and saw nothing wrong or ridiculous
in a piece of economy that he put in
practice in the cemetery.
The old man had lost four wives.
and desired to erect for each a head
stone. with an inscription commemora-
tive of her wifely virtues.
But inscriptions. he found. were
very expensive. He economical in
this way:
He had the Christian name OF each
wife cut on a small stone above her
grave-"Emma." Mary" Hester
Edith" Under each name a hand
pointed to a large stone in the cen
ter of the lot, and under each hand
were the words:

A leading physician of Boston tells
this story at his own expense. To
emphasize the point. it may be re-
marked in passing that this physicians
fee for a single visit is about what a
country practitioner would expect after
having successfully treated typhoid
case.
He had been to see patient some
eight or ten times. and decided he no
longer needed his attention. and sent
him bill. AS he happened to be
passing the mans house one day. how
ever. he thought he would drop in and
see how he was getting along. This
he did, and found his condition salts

said:

merely have to eat plain food, and not
stay out late at night"
