Wrona Estimate OF Success.

DR.. Eliot, lately president of llar.
ward University. said recently at re-
ception in New York: "My career APP
pears to strike considerable number
Of people as a successful one. People
congratulate me on what they call my
success. But my career has certainly
not been successful in what is con.
sidered to be the American idea OF
success in a pecuniary way. 1t is a
success in terms of seryice-seryice
to the community. Now, does not this
refute the common opinion that the
American estimate of success is a PC
cuniary one?" Dr. Eliot then related
an incident in one of his travels by
boat when the vessels officers came
to him and said: I'VE officers want
to ask you question. We know you
are a smart man. We want to know
why. being a smart man, you are not
rich?" DR.. Eliot did not repeat his re-
ply, but concluded his remarks on the
subject by saying: The real Ameri.
can estimate of success in the world
Is serviceableness and not wealth"

That a shop should possess beer
license on condition that no beer is
sold sounds extraordinary, but sew

of cider manufacturers have a lit

such license, though If one went IN
and asked for beer he could not op-

cider alone, while beer license
covers cider.
