pected to meet Stillmans counsel.
LETTERS
DISCUSSED.
The principal new development dis
cussed at this conference was the affidavit
recently filed by the plaintiff, containing
copies of five letters, reputed to have
been written to Mrs. Stillman by Fred
Beauvais, French Canadian guide, who IS
charged by Stillman with being Guys
father. In these letters Beauyais is pur-

PROVED BY HAMMER STROKE
Human Character Frequently Welded Under Blows, Much as Workmen
 Weld the Iron.

There are metals which improve in quality all the time you stamp and hammer them. Just the same is true of man, if he have the true heat in him, and makes himself master of the circumstances, instead of slave. Pre- cisely as you may have seen different strands of iron wire brought together in a "blOOm." heated red, and struck and struck under a trip hammer till they are made one. so all the different experiences of human life arc fused and welded in the process of the forma- tion of character. A mans habits, his methods of reasoning, his imagination and memory, his faith. his hope, his love-are blended together in his char acter. And the hammering becomes no unimportant part of the process. Ger tain traits there are which show them selves all through the pounding. Thus. all the hammering of an eternity would not make iron into gold. But very little hammering will make pig-iron into wrought iron. if you give it heat enough; and so hammered. it will bear very different strain.-E. E. Hale.
