A Literal Answer,

A estolid German who was coming
over to America had the misfortune
to fall overheard, but the alarm was
given instantly, and after a very ex-
citing experience he was rescued.
That evening he appeared on deck, not
much the worse for his mishap, and
was surrounded by number Of pas
sengers, who evinced great interest
in him. 49,.
"Oh, tell me-" gushed q wide eyed
young woman, "how did you feel when
you had fallen and the ship had gone
on and you were left alone in the
ocean,"
The German looked at her calmly.
"Wet," be answered.

Never Learned How to Live.

There are people who 60 through
life looking for sights, and they are
necessarily miserable, for they find
grievances everywhere. One has the
same pity for such men as for the
very poor. They are the morally illit-
crate. They have had no real educa-
ton, for they have never learned how
to live.

A CARD.

In this wilderness of American race
prejudice, a gentle voice of reason
and justice is ever serenity sweet. We
little care if the same chord Is struck,
for the harmony is always welcome
and the tender notes forever refresh
ing. In the issue of this week, a Mr..
F. A. Lowne wrote under the title Of
"A Voice From The North" and we
who have heard it, gladly add another
unknown name to our scroll of friends.
In the mantle of darkness which
seems to roof and horizon our race in
America, each and every pen and voice
that pays tribute to justice and right,
dawns as new star and chases away
bit of cloud. Such letters as the
one mentioned raises hope. And hope,
hand in hand with faith, encourages
us and makes us stronger. We thank
Mr.. Towne and trust that time will
ever justify in deed and life the les
sons which he draws so perfectly
from this codeie humane, comedy in
deed, yet oft times so tragically
tragic.

cards on pain of dismassal, but
others handed out the cards to the

THE OBJECT OF EDUCATION.
Robert G.. Ingersoll.

The object Of all education should
be to increase the usefulness Of man
usefulness to himself and others.
Every human being should be taught
that his first duty is to take care of
and that to be self.respecting
he must be self-supporting. To live
on the labors Of others. either by
force which enslaves, or by cunning
which robs, or by borrowing or beg.
ging, is wholly dishonorabie. Every
man should be taught some useful art.
His hands should be educated as well
as his head. He should be taught to
deal with things as they are-with life
as 1t Is. This would give feeling Of
independence, which IL the firmest
foundation Of honor. Of character.
Every man knowing he is useful, ad.
mires himself.
