And us be abounds In comparison, so bo Is sure to Kive him self the better of everybody else; ae cordlni; to the proverb, ull the geese aiyl swans. . . . They ure certainly to be pitied that c:iu he ,so much .inistukeu at home. And yet 1 have sometimes thought that such people are in a sort happy, that nothini; can put out uf counte nance -with themselves, though they neither have uor merit other peoples'. lsut at the same . time one would woiiiler they should uot feel the blows they give themselves or get from others, for this Intolerable and ridicu lous temper; nor show any concern for that which makes others blush for, as well as at them, via., their unreason able assurance. ... Whereas the greatest iinderstnnd lnpi doubt luost, are readiest to learn, and least pleased with themselves; this, with nobody else. Kor though they stand on higher ground, and so see further than their neighbors, they are yet humbled by their prospect, since, it shows them something so much higher und above their reach. And truly then it Is. thnt sense shines with the greatest beauty, when It is set in humility. William l'enn, in "1'rults of Solitude." POE'S PLACE IN LITERATURE America Has Not Accorded Due Honor to Her Gifted Son, la Opinion of Hamilton W. Mabie. A national literature must have many notes, and l'oe struck some which In pure melodic quality had not been heard before. As literary Inter ests broaden, and the provincial point of view gives place, the American esti mate of l'oe will apiroach more nearly the foreign estimate.

Flamiltoi, V. Mabie, Finding Fault. A lil I son wiys, "What uu altsurd thins it is to puss all over the valuable parts of a i mm and tlx our attention on his InUrinlt'Wi I" Hut that seems to be the hnlilt. About the llrst thins we try to tlud In u man is his faults. They are apt to transcend his virtues, even if the virtues are mountain liih. It Is n deplorable habit, fr It not only does Kreat Injustice to the person criti cized, but It hurts the critic himself. It lowers his views of life and confirms the habit of seeing the worst side of human -experience und losing siht of the bright Bide. No man can be tt nun-til man, or u religious man of any faith, who Is constantly searching for the faults of people. The llrst duty a man' owes to his neighbor is to look for the bright side und ho will then find, in most cases, tliut the dark siile Is much smuller than he suspected. The thlitK to attack is the tdn, for wo will discover that that is K'"cater than the man who is guilty of It, Ohio Stniu Journal, Our Sister In Typhoid. In his "Past nud Present," that open ing cun of the mldnluetcenth century radical campaign, Thomas Carlyle tells a grisly story of a poor Irish widow In Edinburgh, who begged ftr help. "She was refijsetl, till her strength. nnd heart failed her; she sank down In typhus fever; died, and Infected her lane with fever so that 17 other per sons died of fever there in conse quence. The forlorn Irish widow ap plies to her fellow creatures, 'Heboid, I am sinking. I um your sister; one Ood mude us.' They tinswer, 'No, Im possible; thou nrt no sister of ours.' Put slit; proves her sisterhood; ftej typhus fever kills them; they are actu ally her brothers though denying it." Do You Sleep Well? To be at his best a man must have sound, refreshing sleep.

I Glanced up at Carter's fuco framed in the scuttle hole. "Carter, pass these men up and take them forward with the others. Turn them over to Wulklns. Then come back here, and report to me." They went up tho ladder one by one, and disappeared onto the deck ubove. Carlson and I watched the others until Carter stuck his bead once again through tho opening. "All safe, sir they was like lambs." "Very well ; stand by to help. Now you lads, lift this black and shove him up to where they can got hold above."
