GREAT, BUT NOT so CREDITED
Many Of the Most IIIustrious Men
Have Not Been Given This
Honor Title.

Many of the most illustrlous men
whom all the world knows as great"
have not obtained the honor of having
the adjective affixed to their names,
says James Bryce In the Youths Com
panion. The easiest way Of showing
this is to set down list Of 20 Of the
most famous men Of action. give the
list following, not as better than 9TH
ers that might be framed, but merely
as sufficient for the purposes Of Illus
tration:
Pericles, Hannibal, Julius Caesar,
Emperor Augustus, Emperor Trajan,
Pope Gregory VII, william the Con-
queror, Sultan Saladin, Emperor Fred
erick II, DR.. Martin Luther, Ignatius
Loyola, Emperor Charles v, Cardinal
Richelieu, Oliver Cromwell, George
Washington,s Napoleon Bonaparte,
Abraham Lincoln, Joseph Mazzini,
Cavour, Bismarck.
Several Of the above, notably julius
Caesar and Napoleon Bonaparte, stand
at least as high as any in the list Of
those to whom the epithet of "great"
has become attached In common
speech--perhaps higher. Taken as
whole, these 20 show higher aver
age. There are none Of these 20 Of
whom we do not feel that If we had
known them they would have struck US
as rising far above common humanity
either In width Of mind or intensity Of
feeling or In energy Of will, or In all
these things combined.

No alien land in oil the world has
any deep, strong charm for me but that
one; no other land could SO longingly
and. beseechingly haunt me sleeping
and waking through half a lifetime, as
that one has done. Other things leave
me. but 1t abides; other things
shange, but 1t remains the same. For
me Its balmy airs are always blowing.
Its summer seas flashing In the sun |;
the pulsing Of Its surf beat is In my
ear; can see Its garlanded crags, its
leaping cascades, its plumy palms
browsing by the shore its remote sum-
mits floating like islands above the
cloudrack; can feel the spirit of Its
woodland solitudes; can hear the
plash Of Its brooks; In my nostrilS
