THE THINKERS OF THE PAST
Friedrich Nietzsche Makes Comparison
of Their Methods and Those
of the Present Day.

Why does this thought enter and
reenter my mind, and fash upon me
in ever-varying brilliancy ?-that, IN
times Of yore, explorers, in their
search after the origin of things, al
WAYS expected to find a something
which might be Of invaluable impor-
lance to every action and judgment:
whereas now, the farther We trace
the origin the less we feel con-
eerned about our interests. The in
significance Of the origin increases
in proportion to our insight into the
origin; whereas the things nearest
to. around, and within ourselves
gradually begin to display color and
beauty, puzzles and riches of greater
importance than the older humanity
ever dreamed of. Formerly thinkers
used TO move furiously about like
captured beasts, intently watching
the bars and their cages, and leaping
up against them in order to smash
them Happy was he who fancied
that he could spy through a gap

Cunning For Balloons.

About the Queerest and most in
comprehensive Of human instincts
is that which leads SO many people
to fire guns at any balloon they see
floating in the air over their heads
Instinct it must be and not mere
malevolenee or even mischievous-
ness, since IL is shown by a consid-
cradle fraction of the inhabitants of
every country, and nowhere, 50 far
as known, has there been until very
recently any measurable antagonism
to balloons or their passengers. OF
late they have been viewed with
some suspicion and hostility when
they drifted across European from
tiers, but that is only a part Of the
general war scare in that nervous
part of the world, and no trace Of
such a feeling exists In this country.
Yet now, and here, as always and
everywhere, in the annals of aero
nautics, il Is the commonest of ex-
.periences for the occupants of bal
looms TO hear bullets and shot Of as
sorted sizes whizzing through the air
near them. An obscure primordial
jealousy of persons who have raised
themselves so high above common
humanity may lie at the roots of
the problem. The unformulated
purpose may be to show that the
aeronauts are not SO different from
other people after all, and that they
have not escaped from ordinary hu-
man chances by mounting into the
heavens. There may be, too, an un-
DERIVING sense that no harm will be
done by the firing. None ever has
been that we recall. and a small
perforation sof the balloon itself
would cause nothing worse than a
slow descent, but some day one of
these gunners will kill an inoffensive
sky traveller If the practice be not
stopped, and it is therefore, well
that the efforts to punish and sup
press it be vigorous. New York

the workshop is to give employment

otherwise would be either beggars or
live in respondent idleness. Certain
industries which, it has been found,
can be engaged in with profit by the
blind, such as broom making, mat
tress making and chair Gaming, will
be taken up.
