Greatest Ssnu Writer.

The immortal quartet of song writ
ers are Goethe, Heine, Burns and Ber-
anger. OF the four Burns Is by far
the most popular. Goethe was at heart
an "Olympian," and in all things a
critic; Heine was in his deepest soul
a pessimist and cynic; Beranger, while
much more human, was a little bit
too critical; while Burns, democratic
the core and Of immense sympathy,
threw himself into a common human
life Of the world with a whole heart
and wrote the songs that will live
and be loved while humanity endures.
