Americas Peculiar View
 Of the Scholar : ln1porfance

tion. Let Prof. Munsterberg make a corner in something, say in radium, and America will ripple with excite ment while he wlf be niobbed by in- teryiewers and photographers, Laputa was the right country for the pro- fesspr :there only were svnofars ob. Jects of popular enthusiasm. Mean time the scholar Is not compIaining: nc Is sincerely indifferent to baronet- ctes. he does not want paraeranhs in the press; he is not apxious to see biofched and black ,photographs of himself in the newspapers. '-7 Ambition love of money, love of
 one crowded hour of plorious life. {" .aAe puissant men into the law, Wall .. .ree.. aentistry. the colt of Plato,s
 ereat beasf' the political public. and take them away from schoIarshi, LOOK at.lthe case of Napoleon Rona- parte. He was a brn Homeric critic. ms remarks on the "Iliad" Che used 70 read 1t aloud to Gourgaud. with comments) leave no doubts concern Ing hts noble appreciation of the poet. But Homer was not enough for Napo- leon. unhappily, action and pleasure caiied to him, whereas to them the scholar says: Too late. for us, your horns you blow whose ply was taken long ago.
 We are lllee children reared in shade
 Beneath some old world abbey-wall Forgotten in a forest glade,
 And secret from the eyes of all.
 Such Is the scholar; he neither
 strives (except with other scholars) nor cries for money barofetcies, newspapers paragraphs, interviews. nor any such thing. Napoleon. on the bother hand. was toe fpii ofSvitality to wNch he could have done better than all the professors. and that is not say- ing much. He most overrun Europe, make kings and mar them.. and In other respects have good time. To be sure 1t was a professor who raised Germany against Napoleon. butt mark thtsi he was q professor who did not do "high grade class work" He was not success as a professor, and he knew 1t. and rushed into politics. He was. from my point of view, not the right sort of scholar, though admir- able as patriot. Tyrtaeus, too, was professor. best known because he deviated into patriotism. The epitapfl of Aeschyius says nothing of his dramas. merely tells us that he fought Fin the Attic territorial army. as thou sands of honest men did who never wrote a line of poetry and were tot ally destitute of, scholarship.
 Tn short, "ft takes all sorts to make n4 world." " bnt the scholar tif he does not invent granaophones and that kind of thing) representa- sthe sort of whicr world would most readily, see die. Prof. Munsterberg speaks highly Of Hegef as a force in the creation of Germany. But if Hegel had never been born he would never have been missed Germany could stand where 1t, does without Hegel. who Is not quite so much read as he should be. The world has never yet been interested in the scholar. as such. To interest the world he must get into the divorce court ,or make a corner in radfum. or spout on platforms. or be amateur champion at golf Now the golf of professors is the worst in the world.

Pets of English I.as,e. .


 New York Sun.
 Some pretty rough things have been said about the anectations of English aristocracy from time to time. but the recent accounts of their household pets are about as incomprehensfble as any of their other foibles The greyhound and the long silky-eared spaniel are a thing of the past. The Duchess of Marlborough Is said to have a special fondness for serpents. She spends days also In the park at Blenheim with the gazelles, which in her society seem to forget their traditional shyness. Her other pets are grotesque looking peli- cans which may be seen about the shores of the ponds. Lady Warwick. the titled socialist leader, especially loves white animals. and in her grounds at Warwick are white peacocks, all kinds of white birds. even white eie- plant Her special treasure is a whdte parrot. which Is said to be more than a century old.
 Lady Cadogan has a famous coIlec- tion of snakes. She Is able to drape some of them about her in such way that they serve as jewelry Among her pets are two trained lizards. Lady Cottenham nurses with great care her dormice. and Lady Churchill is said to be happiest when her crocodile is near her. Lady Hopes pet Is an ape from Senegal. while Mrs. Rose Hubbard, one of the most popular of the women in Mrs. Keppefs set, raises geese. Miss Rosa Boughton. one of the most liked of the unmarried girls in London soci- ety. insists upon taking to all the houses that will allow her a hyena that she bought from Constantinople and has tanned.
