In these days wealth getting is so
frequently spoken of in connection with
success that the two terms have about
come to be accepted as synonymous,
and conviction is forced that this is
essentially worshiping gen
Grafton. There probably never was q
time In the history Of this nation when
the desire and determination to get
wealth were so universal, and when the
popular estimate of mans worth wa,
so largely made up on the score of his
bank account. The poor man has n
very pronounced feeling in these times
OF mot being in It," Outside of the
president himself, there is not a states
man in America to-day who is half so
important in the popular mind as John
ID. Rockefeller or ]. Pierpont Morgan.
And except it be the presidency itself,
nlne-tenths of the eager young men
now pushing forward to the firing line
or the zeStful battle Of life would pre-
fer to be such men rather than have
any political office the nation could
give them. In other countries the men
OF wealth feel and acknowledge infer-
ority to the great statesmen, but in this
country our rich captains of industry
look rather contemptuously down upon
mere mayors and governors, judges and
congressman. We have need Of a
broader meaning to the word success.
We may keep on producing the great
est aggregation of money makers the
world ever knew, but If we do not learn
better to appreciate the achievements
OF scholarship, of science, of great
work in every department Of intellect
ual activity, we shall not produce the
worlds greatest writer's. it's greatest
scientists and its greatest scholars.
We need to learn, too, the old, old story
that wealth has its limitations. and
that there are countless desira bic
things 1t cannot buy.

DO PLANTS HAVE CONSCIOUSNESS,
By Prof. Francis Darwi

If a sleeping plant is placed in dark room
after it has gone to sleep at night it will be
found next morning in the light position, and
will again assume the nocturnal position as
evening comes on. We have, in fact, what
seems to be habit built by the alteration of
day and night. The plant normally drops its
leaves at the stimulus Of darkness and raises
them at the stimulus of light But here we

the leaves rising and falling in the the
accustomed stimulation. Since this change of position
not due to external conditions, 1t be the of
the internal conditions which habuay accompany the
movement This is the characteristic par excellence
habt-namey, capacity, acquired by repetition, of
acting to fraction of the original environment
We are indebted to Keebe for interesting case of
apparent habit among the lower animals minute
workike creature found the of Brittany leads
life dependent upon the ebb and flow of the sea- When
the tide is out these little creatures the surface
showing themselves in large green patches the rising
tide begins to them they sink down into safer
quarters The remarkable fact is that when kept in an
aquarium and therefore removed from tidal action they
continue for short time to perform rhythmic move
ments in time with the tide.
1t is impossible to know whether or not plants are
conscious but 1t is consistent with the doctrine Of con-
tnuity that in all living things there is something
psychic. and If accept this point OF view must
believe that In plants there exists faint copy of what
we know consciousness in ourselves.
