If the single man plant himself lndomitably on his instincts, and there abide, the huge world will come round to him.

 Not so, brothers and friends please God, ours shall not be SO; we will walk on our own feet; we will work with our own hands; we will speak our own minds. The study of letters shall no longer be a name for pity, for doubt, and for sensual in- diligence. The dread of man and the love of man shall be wall of de- fense and wreath of joy around all. A nation of men will for the first time exist, because each believes himself inspired by the divine soul, which also inspires all men.-From Ralph Waldo Emerson's address on "The American Scholar" before the Harvard Phi Beta Kappa in 1897.

PIANO DROVE JOHN AWAY
Takes Good Dea, to Upset ChInaman's Nerves, but Piano Will Do
 the Job.

The fascinations of an untram- meled life in New York has lured other Chinese servants away from western families who had migrated with their retinue to New York, but John of the bankers family had re- mained faithful through two years of metropolitan temptations. At last he gave notice and refused to tell why. Finally the manager of an employment agency offered a solu- tion of Johns defection.
 ~It is because your little girl has got big enough to practice on the piano." he said. "John can't stand that. A Chinaman hates a piano. It takes good deal to upset Chinese nerves. but piano is capable of completing the job most efectuAlly. Heretofore there has been but little piano playing in your house; now that there is prospect of several hours of practice every day John clears out. We have that trouble with all Chinese servants. There are many western families in New York who would like Chinese help, but as soon as an otherwise willing servant learns that there is . piano in the house he declines the job." New York Sun.

Prejudice is a hard thing to overcome. but where health is at stake and the opinion of thousands of reliable people differs from yours. prejudice then be- comes your menace and you ought to lay it aside. This is said in the inter- est of people suffering from chronic constipation, and it is worthy of their attention.
 American people the most stubborn constipation imaginable can be cured by a brief use of pr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin. You may not have heard of it before. but do not doubt it's merits on that account, or because it has not been blatantly advertised.

The Great Actors Art and His Wife's
.- RuffIed Feelings.
Mrs. Garrick's admiration Of her
husbands dramatic talents was in
tense, and on his great nights she
would hang over her box next the
stage in rapturous delight. The one
flaw in her idol, she claimed. was a
taste for low life, for which she blamed
him greatly, insisting that he loved
better to play Scrub to low lived
audience than one of his superior char
acters before an audience of taste.
On one particular occasion she was
in her box in the theater when Gar
rick's impersonation Of Richard Ill.
was applauded to the echo. In that
day a farce followed the tragedy Of the
evening. and as Mrs. Garrick rose to
leave before it her husband came to
the' box to say be had some business
in the <greenroom which would deta1n
him, so most unwillingly the lady was
obliged to acquiesce and remain
through the closing entertainment.

Rules for Bathing the Baby.

nuAcS LUZ 0dLuluS Lle odUy.
While it may seem a simple
matter to give a baby its morn
ing bath, a French scientist de-
clares that many infantile ills
and even serious maladies can
be traced to lack of care in
holding the baby, in regulating
the temperature of the water
for the bath and later in drying
the baby and keeping it away
from drafts. The water, we are
told, should be 95 degrees, test
ed by thermometer and not by
the hand of the nurse, which
cannot be relied upon. This is
three degrees below the tenn
perature of the body, and the
warm bath is necessary, lest the
baby be chilled, as may easily
happen. The bath should not
last more than three or four
minutes. just time enough to
wash the baby quickly. 1t is of
primary Importance to study
and practice the proper method
Of holding the baby on the lap,
lifting it up and placing it in
the water.
