The Great Masters.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.

Inc great masters are they who help
you to find yourself. The others simply
find you.
Perhaps you have wondered why the
alleged classics have such authority Why
should one study Michelangelo, or Bach,
or Homer, or the Elgin Marbles? Why
not strike out in new paths for ones
self? Why be a slave to the past?
Simply because contact with the really
great works of human genius does stim-
ulate Independent effort, while associa-
ton with second-class talent only pro-
duces cheap imitation.
This goes back to the gist Of teaching
The real teacher is the one who puts
into You the desire to know and to do.
Anything Is great in proportion to the
amount of greatness it kindles in you.
A great book is not one that rouses your
admiration, but one that rouses your in
vention.
A great man is not one that calls forth
your praise. but one who opens new
fountains of energy and feeling within
your soul.
The really great never enslave us, they
liberate us.
They never oppress: they inspire
1t was this consciousness Of real
mastery that led Jesus to say that if he
should make you free you would ''be
free indeed"
Don't fool yourself into fancying that
the great masters are takers. It was
not by any sort of electioneering, jockey
ing, nor managing that Bacon, Plato and
Emerson were elected to their present
positions as thought rulers.
Beethoven, Mendelssohn and Wagner
rose as the stars rise. No pushing helped
them. No hampering hindered them.
All the leagued malice of the entire body
of earthly critics could not dethrone the
Venus de Milo and the Winged Victory
of Samothrace.
When you come to the genuinely great
men and things that time and the world
bow down to you are in the presence of
actual cosmic forces
So be still, listen. wonder, and you
shall learn; you shall find out what is
in you.
Bernard Shaw Is not going to upset
SHAKESPEARE, any sooner than a Chilean
gunboat will upset Gibraltar.
You must believe in the great masters.
study them, learn to love them; for the
reason that 1t Is they who are to you
the liberators of the soul.

VESSEL Is SPORT OF SEAS.
Barge Battles With Elements for
Period of Four Months.

NEW YORK, November 11.-After bat
Ting for four months on a seemingly
shipless ocean. Capt Edwin L. Smith of
London has arrived at Trinidad with the
fifty-five-foot oil barge Woodhall. from
English shipyards, according to word re-
ceived by friends here today. Smith
dared to pilot the little barge on her
perilous trip. which was proposed to save
the expense Of towing, where a dozen
other London shippers feared to try It.
1t was expected that the trip could be
made in forty days. but she met adserse
weather and was the sport Of the seas.
In the meantime the boat had been given
up lost.
According to the report received here.
the captain found an American stowaWay
on board, who helped to deplete the
meager supply of provisions. During the
last few days the crew had to live on
a biscuit and half cup of fresh water
a day, as they were unable to sight a
ship to aid them.

INDIANS ASK FOR JUSTICE.
Tribe Has Been Deprived Of the
Lands Promised by Government.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, November
11.-After having been homeless more
than half century, 125 Clallam Indians,
in council yesterday, drew memorial to
Congress asking the government to COM
ply with the Indian treaty of 1855 and to
restore to the tribe its lands. They
elected two delegates to carry the memo-
rial to Washington.
The treaty which the Indians are max
ing a last effort to enforce stipulates
that the Clallams abandon their lands
which extended from a point near Cape
Flattery to Hood canal, and receive in
exchange 3,S40 acres at Point No Point
The Indians were to move from their ma
tive lands within one year from the pro-
mitigation of the treaty. This was done,
but when they arrived at Point No Point
they found the government had given
possession of their new reservation to
another tribe and they We're unable to
take possession. Since then they have
been homeless.

it is not unusual for store TO run a pro-
gram Of moving pictures during "a part

In addition to these there are eXhibi-

grouped in one room, properly tagged to
enable visitors to inspect them closely
and thus become familiar with the char

At most exhibits of this kind a lecturer
is in attendance describing the manner

It is far cry from the old general
country store, which sold everything
from a threshing machine TO shoe
string to the great department store OF
the American cities which some one mas
said has done more than any other COM
mercial institution to promote the stand
ards of present-day civilization. Yet
there are points of similarity between
them. and the second is really only an
evolution of the first. Each aims as
nearly as possible to supply all the needs
of the community in which it is located.
The difference lies in the classes OF neeos
which each has been able TO develop.
a generation ago the stores OF toWh
were classified according to the goods
sold. One went to a hat store for nat
a shoe store for shoes and furniture
store for furniture. Now in a great de-
partment store all of these articles may
be bought under the same roof, ana IL
often seems that the buyer gains poth III
the time saved and also in the price. IN
this age of consolidation it would natu.
rally seem reasonable to suppose tnat IL
a number of classes Of products could be
sold under the same roof the saving III
rent and space might make posslple
smaller profit than is required by store
devoted to one article. Yet, Whlle the ue-
partment stores seem to handle every
article from pocket handkerchief TO an
automobile, they do not by any means
do away with the special stores, although
they have undoubtedly tended 10 ioNei
the number, and also to reduce tneir
profit. which last Is an advantage W TIC
daily consumer.
Not many wears ago large firm, con-
trolling department stores in severai
cities added banking to the facllltles az
forded it's customers for doing business
under one roof. The example was soon
followed by other stores The store pahk
has already been well received by women,
who, after all, constitute large ma.
iority of the shoppers in every class OIL
store. The bank provides for check ac-
counts receives small deposits, permits
small daily balances, and pays the same
nate of interest upon checking accounts
that some of the savings banks pay for
savings accounts not subject to checking.
The growing tendency on the part or
housekeepers to keep house upon dem
mite weekly or monthly allowance and TO
pay all bills by check renders this bank
especially popular. 1t is probably a good
business stroke which locates the bank
Just opposite the grocery department. so
that while going to deposit their money
women are confronted with the most
tempting table delicacieS the market al
fords. 1t naturally follows that the great
er amount of the checks caShed in this
bank are in payment of bills contracted
in the store, and yet there is no obliga-
ton upon the part of any one to have 1t
SO.

had been able to send his daughter to
fashionable finishing school and after
ward, accompanied by her mother, she
went to Europe, where the generous
checks of her father enabled her to be
presented at court and to enter society.
She became engaged to man OF title and
she and her mother were now on their
way home to prepare for thewedding. The
father was ordered to have a properly
furnished home in readiness to receive
them. He put the matter in the hands or
a. lawyer who had only about two weeks
to complete arrangements but, being
wise man, the lawyer went to the biggest
department store in the city and gave 1t
the contract for furnishing the mansion
he had purchased for his client. The
heads of the various departments were
called and, when completed, the home
had nothing to suggest haste or want OF
consideration in any detail of it's arrange
ment One of the special features of this
store was a cooperation with a reilaoie
employment agency, so that housekeep-
er was installed with a well selected stan
OF servants who were so thoroughly in
structed in their duties that, by the time
the prospective bride arrived with her
marquis, there was nothing to indicate
that they were not coming into the nome
the lady had known since her infancy.
Most of the department stores now
make speciality of home furnishings, and
artistic women are in the habit of visit
ing the rooms of the model houses which
are arranged in the stores for the latest
wrinkles in drapery and the arrangement
of furniture. Some stores make a spe-
cialty of arranging special exhibits of
this kind, and sometimes invitations are
issued to customers to attend a special
opening of these rooms. Sometimes we'd
ding or ball is arranged in these model
rooms. at which attending customers get
view not only of the decorations and
furnishings of a fashionable house dur

Of the costumes worn. The furnishings
of these model rooms are changed fire.
