Having done all this religiously
they expect TO be successful.
Have you not observed that, as a
rule, this is about all that such peO-
pie do to help themselves, and that
to their surprise they fail?
Sentiment may be all right. but
superstition is all wrong. The man
who trusts to luck for success is
bound to fail. Success is built out
Of more tangible material
If you would succeed in life, never
mind the signs. Is ii not better that
signs should fail than that you
should?
Trust in no superstitiOns. Trust
ir nothing but yourselves, you
must trust, too, in the immutable
laws of nature.
Effect comes only from cause.
Nothing lust happens.
Here are you and the world. face
tc face. The laws of the universe
are not going to become imperative
for single second on your account
For unaccOunted centuries the world
and human life have been evolving
in strict accordance with fixed laws.
and you must not imagine that the
of the universe is going
to slip a cog because you confront
it, because you see new moon over
your left shoulder, or because of a
four-leaved clover. The world does
not work that way.
OF far more Importance to you
than your view of the moon is your
view of the world and of life How
ever you may look at it., the moon
is always there Just the same-and
SO is the world Look at ii rs you
will. the world will not swerve

II you and the world don't seem

too big a job. Try making over your
self.
l.Op oil some OF your cOnceit and
round out some Of your
yacuums OF ignorance, and then per-
haps you may find some nice little
niche just made for you. What you
do with it depends upon yourself.
You are incapable of experiencing
worldly wants that the world can
not supply. The world holds every
thing that you can need for success
and happiness. But the world won't
give them for a fOur-leaved clover.
Energy and intellect can accom-
plish anything. Your possibilities,
with these. are practically without
limitation The world is bound to
dc its part. The elements of your
success or your failucr are not in
the moon. but within yourself -

 Come Together.

 &'he steamers were the large white steel vessels Bunker Hill and NasSa- chusetts, the formtF bound for Boston and the latter coming from that port to New York The collision occurred off Point Judith, R. l., at L36 a. m. According to an officer aboard the Massachusetts, that vessel was steam ing CIR her regular course wileR hsF sister ship leomed up in the fog direct ly across her bows, and the crash fol- lowed almost as quickly as the Massa- eil4Ss7t+S could reverse her engines.

DanhHry, Ct, July r.
 Principal Henry T, Burr of the Willi- mantle Normal school continued his course fin the history of education at the Danbury summer school Saturday He spoke about the influence of cer- tain leaders in education during the middle ages and the earlier periods of modern times He spoke of Francis Bacon, who lived during the 18th cen tury, and proposed a new purpose or end in education Bacon asked the people to study the things about them. He advocated the method of induction. Previous to his time people had started with assumed truths. Bacon said it was time to find out something new.
 Commenius was another great factor in educational progress. He was a minister of the Moravian brotherhood who was forced by the thirty years war to flee into Poland. After settling in Poland Commenius took on more re- sponsibility. He was a man of good intellect and he worked out a rational plan or system of education Previous to his time a child was asked to learn that which was beyond his comprehen sion. Commenius decided that such work was futile. In his new venture he had little material to work with Tything at that time was written in Latin. He wrote some text books. the first text books to be written with the idea ef adaptation to children. StiIi he was dominated by the feeling of the times. He wrote the first book on pedagogy which Is known as The Great DfdAct1a. He attempted te com piis eyei0Bedia which was to contain all knowledge. Like Bacon, the effects ef his labers were for a long time un- certain,
