Dr.. Barton's Daily Talk

he came a better man, and lived
kindly and generously. To be sure
there was always an element of
stinginess in his generosity; a savol
of meanness in his goodness; but
there was a great transformation.
The wonder was not that he was
not perfect, but that being SO I'M
perfect he did so well.
Human nature is not fixed and I'M
alterable. 1t has changed since the
day of the cave-man. 1t has not
changed as much as it ought to have
changed, and some of the changes
have not improved much. But after
all it has changed.
The human jaw has shortened, and
the forehead has risen; the kindlier
passions have larger place in the
mind of the individual and the spirit
of the race.
have read history too much and
too carefully to suppose that IN my
own generation I am going to wit
ness any miraculous transformation
of human life. But l do expect to
die seeing the world a little further
along toward the goal, and human
nature little more human than when
l began. That hope gives me great
courage, and l should like you to
share it with me.
