 He has declined to give expression 10 "a formal interview. At the same time he has talked with more or less freedom to his intimate friends of the Washing ton corps of correspondents.

HEREDITY AND
ENVIRONMENT
BY William Il. Barton

Surely, everyone has heard Of the
famous twins born in Siam and ex-
hibited by Barnum. They were
joined together in such fashion that
it was never judged safe 10 cut them
apart; and SO they lived to man
hood. They married and each had
children. one tf the twins died
and the other lived several dreadful
hours afterward before death merci-
fully released him.
There are people who believe that
all the character we have is con-
structed out of our hereditary traits
and our experiences; that inheri-
lance and our environment makes
us.
If that is so. twins ought TO be
more alike than they are.
But twins, ordinary twins, though
born at the same birth, and having
identical hereditary Introduction in
to life. do not live together every
day and hour they have opportunity
TO drift apart.
Not so the Siamese twins and 9TH
erS Of like character. Not for a
single hour has either been away
from the other. Their character and
and disposition ought to be identical
But now we find in twins of this
sort that their individuality is as
marked as that CT other children.
In the case Of the Filipino twins
whom I saw two or three years ago,
one boy was studious and the other
lazy.
In the case of Christine Milly, two
grown women whom 1 saw and talk
ed with, the two heads not only
carried different brains but different
dispositions.
As for the Siamese twins, Chang
and Eng, one was jovial and the
other moroSe.
When we have said all that can
be said for heredity and environ
ment, there Is something in us that
either makes or unmakes US. Char
acter is not wholly a matter of en-
vironment
Heredity is a potent force, but il
can be outgrown. Environment is a
help o. a hindrance, but It alone
does not determine whether 4 man
shall be good or bad, a failure or a
success.
The first and permanent element
is the man himself.
