HUMAN BEING AS A FACTORY
Writing in Atlantic Monthly, Gerald
Stanley Lee Made Remarkably
Comprehensive Comparison.

A human being is kind of factory.
The engine and the works and all the
various machines are kept in the
basement, and he sends down orders
to them from time to time, and they
do the work which has been con-
tceived up in headquarters. He ex-
pects the works down below to keep
ON doing these things without his TAX
ing any particular notice Of them,
while he occupies his mind, as the
competent head Of factory should,
with the things that are new and diff
ferent and special, and that his mind
alone can do; the things which, at
least in their present initial forma-
tive or creative stage, no machines as
yet have been developed to do, and
which can only be worked out by the
man up in the headquarters, himself,
personally, by the handiwork Of his
own thought.
The more a human being develops
the more delicate, sensitive, strong
and efficient, the more spirit-informed
once for all, the machines in the base
ment are. As he grows, the various
subconscious arrangements for dis
eliminating, assimilating. classifying
material, for pumping up power light,
and heat to headquarters, all of which
can be turned on at will, grow more
masterful every year. They are found
all shaving away for him, dimly, down
en- the dark, while he sleeps. They
hand him up, in his very dreams, new
and strange powers to live and to
know with-Gerald Stanley Lee, IN

He was a theatrical lover, and she

he was constant in his devotion,

tried gentle means to get rid of him,
but he had disregarded them with
painful persistency.

himself tragically at her feet, "I love

him was revealed, and he removed
himself with promptness and dis

TAUGHT HIM VALUE or TIME
Customer Of Benjamin Franklin Given
object Lesson by the Eminent
Philosopher.

Benjamin Franklin sagely said:
''Dost thou love life? Then do not
squander time, for that is the stuff
life is made of" Franklin not only
understood the value of time, but
put price upon it that made others
appreciate its worth.
A man came in one day and picked
up book that he wished to purchase.
The price that the clerk asked was
not satisfactory. He insisted on see
ing the proprietor.
Mr.. Franklin hurried from the rear
Of the store at the clerks sum
mons.
What is the lowest price you can
take for this book, sir?" asked the Gus
toner leisurely.
"One dollar and a quarter" was
the terse reply.
One dollar and quarter? Why,
your clerk asked me only dollar just
now.
True said Franklin, "and I could
better afford to take a dollar than
leave my work"
Without another word the crestfall-
en- purchaser laid the amount on the
counter and left the store
He had learned not only that he
who squanders his own time is fool
ish, but he who wastes the time of
others is a thief.

Living Mud.

In China during the rainy season
the amount of mud in certain mari
time provinces is incredible and appal-
ling. It is, in fact, as much as two,
three and even four feet deep. Tour
lists say that to see wagons and men
and animals pushing through this
brown and viscous mud is as ugly a
sight as can well be imagined.
But there's sight more horrible
still-the sight of the living mud
Sometimes, as you stand on the edge
Of one Of these awful expanses, the
mud begins to move. 1t rises up and
down. It forms itself into strange
mounds. 1t is like great cauldron
of witches stew AS you puzzle over
the ugly spectacle the hideous forms
of a dozen land crabs, coated thick
with mud, emerge near you. A dozen
more toll painfully forth on your
right, another dozen on your left. And
then you understand. This cauldron
of moving, living mud is due to thou
sands Of great land crabs wallowing
in its depths.

FORGOT THE LORDS PRAYER
Evidently Panlc-strIcken San Fran
cisco Man Was Not In the Habit
Of Repeating 1t.

"a man told me-" says a writer in
the American Magazine, "that at the
time of the San Francisco earth
quake, he and his wife knelt down
and began the Lords Prayer, but
forgot it in the middle. 1t takes time
to renew an old acquaintance.
How can small boy in New York
city think that his father is the great
est man in the world?
"A man may promise wife he
loves never to marry a second time,
and mean what he says most solemn
ly, but a part Of what he has in his
head, and keeps to himself, is likely
to be this: Knowing marriage from
the inside, and appreciating its possi-
bilities for unhappiness, he thanks
God for having escaped a catastrophe
and privately resolves never to take
a second risk
This is something Of boss ridden
world, but not altogether so. If you
want to find out a few facts, take a
sheet of paper and write out list Of
those whose actions you can control.
Another pleasant way to pass the
afternoon is to write out list of
those who you think can manage
you"
