NO. 50: WILLIAM PEARTREE SMITH.

NE of the William Morris type of men who during the revolution did
Great Britain was William Peartee Smith. respected citizen of New
ark. When the revolution, which meant so much in the way of character
testing, broke yer the land, Smith las well pas the meridian of his life.
He was considers a wealthy man, and although he al not ahe to offer
his personal services to the cause, he Ia OF what he had-hhs money-and
to such an extent that when the war wa won he a almost insolvent by
virtue of the depreciation OF the Continental currency and his large loans
to the government +
Smith a born in New York city in the IA 1923 and came o arsto-
cratic stock- His father was possessedof sufficient influence and means to
send hsb y to college, n when Smith was graduated he ranked second in
his class. This. however Ia nothing to his individual credit, Is standing
in the university was in thosed days computed lot according to the students
record in his work, but according to the social prominence Of said students
family! However that may have been, Smith succeeded in getting a very
credHabe store o. knowledge into his head, and upon his return to New
York lie was able to take Up the practise of law.
This did lot suit him, however. and being well off, Smith turned his at
tenton to poetry and made his mark in "a small way among his contem-
rhd the daughter Of the estimable Captain William Bryant, a mar of no
small prominence in his day. Three children blessed this union W boys and
one girl The daughter vas later married to Elisha Boudnot, whose resi-
Idence still stands next to the American Insurance Company building in
|Parkp place.
Smith a perhaps better known among he aristocratc Tories than he
was among the patriots previous to the war;; but to his credit as a Amer
lean, he can III strongly for the Rebels At n beginning of h revolu-
ton. He was an intimate companion Of General William Livingston. nd his
counsel was often sought on important matters. He rave freely of his wealth,
and helped the Continental arny out of more than n tight pinch.
He died in the year 1SM, n of the best known n best liked D. the cn-
zens Of Newark. At the time of hsd death he was a Judge of the Inferior
Court in thisc city.

wonderfully friendly.
If, on the contrary, however, just
your cause, you allow the fault-finding,
critical state of lnind to possess you;
if unkindness poisons your thought; If
gloom Expresses you will not find per-
sons disposed to linger by you.
And his days experience will illus
trate the pilgrimage of life. Some
people are r~eligiously let alone. They
unconsciously %affront, offend, repel
those they meet-who at the same time
may hold them in respect, but do not
enjoy their companionship.
To dwell alone in a beautiful home
keeping it perfectly cared or-and
nursing sad memories is a great mis-
take. Perfect housekeeping is futile
unless it serves to make people happy.
There may be far less comfort in the
properly lived life than in the merely
easy one.
Cushions and well-cooked meals are
all good Things, but they are not the
most important in life by any means.
Women especially who wish to remain
interesting and to form pleasant friend
ships should not allow their posses
sions to dominate them.
A home is not beautiful merely be-
cause it is superbly fitted and cared
for. but for what ii means and who
it shelters. Let us not become slaves
to our chairs and tables or lay too
much stress on our material comforts.
Men can afford to indulge their tastes
for good living far more gracefully
than women. 1t is better to live a
bright, happy, active life, mixing with
people in mutual comradeship and
good will, than to dwell alone in re-
fined luxury, acquiring a certain
selfish attitude toward the world gem
orally.
A woman must study out the condi-
tions that seem to Cypress her; must
find out If they are real or imaginary
and seek some wholesome plan of liv-
ing rather thar the easiest way.
She should get the best out of her
life. If she feels uncertain as to what
is best she can seek advice from friends
or, as this lady who Is wretched amid
her lovely surroundings has done, from
someone whose work brings her in
touch with such problems.
L.|
She need not absolutely follow any
advice, although she may be guided by
all. There is no necessity for any
woman to choose such a morbid lot as
that of one with chairs and tables as
companions. and perfect cooking and
spotless linen actually part of her ex-
~istence.
Replan your life IL need be on sensible,
reasonable lines and find companion

and making yourself necessary to her

scious seldshness is often the real root
