their dag, but only small part Of
their genius was resurrectionized in
our Darwin. This resemblance in par
ticular is notable. Speaking of his
grandfather, Charles Darwin says, 'I
am struck with his Indifference to
fame, the complete absence Of all
signs of overestimation Of his abilities
or Of the success of his works." By
this we see that modesty may be
hereditary virtue.
In his deliberate. matter Of fact way
Darwin tells us that he was slow
and naughty child-teachable, but
his little ambitions he fulfilled much
too quickly and easily. Il was much
given to inventing deliberate false
hoods, and this was always done for
the sake of causing excitement lin
other words, getting glory. He stole a
lot of fruit from his fathers best trees
and hid the plumber in the shrubbery;
then he rushed around proudly telling
his discovery Of the theft and its
hiding place. When he found that his
wonderful stories were received in
strict silence he realized that the pun
ishment was severer than thrashing
His mother died when he was eight
without leaving any conscious infu-
ence on his nature.
Very amusingly, Darwin rather brags
Of his humaneness as boy and man.
Like David of old. he pleads that his
slips could be counted on one finger
of one hand usually. II never stole
more than one egg out Of a nest. "
It remained on his conscience that
once, just once, 81 beat a puppy sim

could not have hurt it much. .as It

men: II have gradually learnt to see
that it is just as noble a conception

forms as to believe that he required

this we gather from no less au-
.itative source than his son, Dr.
FRANCIS Darwin, whose address as
president of the British Association
For the Advancement of Science at
Dublin last October arrested univer-
sal attention by it's bold dictum that
plants have eyes and see. Dr. Oar
win was his fathers associate in all
his patient botanical investigations,
and our portrait of the apostle of evo-
luton will be drawn from his inter

Charles Darwin himself expressed his

= tack the vital organs, causing catarrh of
the bladder, brick-dust or sediment in
the urine, head ache, back ache, lame
back, dizziness, sleeplessness, nervous
ness, or the kidneys themselves break
down and waste away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by a proper treatment of the kid
neys. Swamp.ROot corrects inability to
hold urine and sca1ding pain in passing it,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to go often through
the day, and to get up many times during
the night. The mild and immediate effect
of Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. It stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable health restoring
properties. A trial will convince anyone.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in ffty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have
sample bottle and book that tells all
about it, both sent free by mail. Address,

These will cost the, govern
ment $685. 900, and the PEG.
pie will pay 36, 100000 fol-
Them, which also includes
the cost Of delivering. But
this does not comprise the
postal card output. We are
now annually buying from
Germany alone 100000, 600
postal cards, and also several
millions from France and
other European, nations. But
|.Germany has thus sar had a
einch on the colored postal
card trade, for even American
publishers, instead of doing
their own printing and litho-
graphing, have found it more
profitable to- place orders di-
rectly with German houses,
It is safe to say that Ameri-
cans buy 900, oeo, o00 postal.

He subsequently discovered
that the bone of his middle
finger had been broken as a
result of the crushing grip his
hand had suffered, and he
brought suit for damage.

had the same experience with

an agreeble thing. but to have
your fingers crushed by a
friend who has a grip like the
jaws of a hydraulic press is a |
very different matter, but we
opine that Mr.. Wilkinson
