In the discourse OF Descartes upon
Inc Method of Using Ones Reason
hightly." he says that he had ALWAYS
mao an intense desire to learn how to
distinguish truth from falsehood in
order that he might be clear about his
actlons and that he might be able to
Walk surefootedly in this life.
therefore he resolved to set up what
ne termed "a provisional self-eoveru.
hent, OF which these were to be the
rN.es ! give the. rules as somewhat
broadly paraphrased by MIR. Huxley:
flrst-That he would submit him.
self to the laws and religion in which
ne had been brought up.
Second-That he would act, on all
occasions which called for action,
promptly and according to the best
OF his Judgment.
Third-That he would seek bann,.

tnan In attempting to satisfy them
Fourth-That he would make the

EXPLANATION OF THE CREOLE
English Writer at Some Paine to Make
Facts Patent to His
Readers.

] have used the word creole" To
the average Englishman imagine It
conjures up visions of q dark and
beautiful woman gloriously appareIed
and with large proportion OF colored
blood In her veins. It Is necessary to
get that idea out of ones head at the
very beginning, as It Is wholly mis-
taken one. The first and essential
claim to the title OF creole is that one
should be OF the purest European
blood; the second, so far as the West
Indies are concerned, is that one
should be native OF the islands.
If Queen Victoria had happened to
be In Trinidad when her eldest SOL
was born, King Edward would be q
creole. The word simply applies to
two things-parentage and birth. You
may be an English creole, a French
creole, Spanish creole; but you can.
not be creole II you are born in
England or France or Spain. even
though your ancestors had been born
and bred in the West Indies for gen.
erations. The one thing which is i'm.
possible in true creole is exactly
what the ignorant think the word i'm.
plies-that is, the least suggestion OF
negro blood
Please remember, then, that the
true creoles are as white as you are,
and that those of the upper classes
have nearly all been educated IN
France or England; and that If you
meet one in London drawing room
and expect wells and nose rings and
jangle Of barbaric Jewels you will be
grievously disappointed They are
just ordinary ladies and gentlemen, a
little paler than you because. living IN
the tropics, they have not been 80

subjects Of King Edward. although
