Whnt one man's opinioiiH are mutters little hut that a man hs opiniom matters much if they are self-thought-out opinions. Thomas Edinon, who is so Imsy that h2 works two "shifts"eaeh of eight hours every day, was in triviewed for a New York newspaper on the more impor tant questions of the day. An opinion expressed by the jrreat inventor naturally bears weight but that this1 busiest Ci near-octogenarians has the time to think mid read about the day's news is of absorbing interest? . j i.'.i:,..... :.. .c ,t, r t 1 tu.u o ui uic nn iiu nv uvnmiioiiniuu mm : In I'r nnm lviinlu the Kronnd tin one is never too old to think and to think about every-' " which divorce i,n, i- i,iuin,d thiiijr.. Truly this .versatile wizard is not as mentally dead ,.r','i . , as he finds many of his fellow men and women. Without) ""mm tin, itaijiihmint or a' doubt Edison finds it easier to think, in the profound '"ZZ.nZ and analytical sense of the word, than the average man i "t iciiint.-. f.r woman of one-hair or one-quarter his age. Ktlison is but) Zi JTlX i.ne of many employers who have found that the American ; ieir riKhtH citi., m,. employe is a super-worker with little mental initiative. The observant and apperceptive reader will rend a great deal of the man and the thinker in Edison's answers to his kcest "questionnaire" interview. There is food for thought on topics of the day and tin Edison the thinker in these answers: I think VJZ'l will ne a moderately prosperous year. To explain why would take too much time.

These eternal (iracleH of. a poet mind are: "Give fools their silks and knaves their wine, a man's a man. for all that' it ml "An honest, man's the noblest work of Cod.'" Since the time of Robert Uurns the world has become convinced as he was that "clothes do not make the man," and that "wealth is not a measure of manhood." liui-ns knew as does modernity that an honest man is not only the noblest work of God but 'ofttimes the rarest. When Bums was singing his folk sours of Scotland the word "honest" had not lost its spiritual inference. The people recognised more kinds of dishonesty than those amenable to man-made laws. The distinction between mourn and tnurti had not been lost. An honest man today is one who ! is not reputed to have obtained material possessions thnmphi .ntetioiitible methods, whether that man is honest with whm tn himselCi'HiB family or his fellow men does not matter as long as he does not steal that thing which civilization hnshwck until ira.i. called wealth. There will be upiversal material and spirit ual honesty when there is a realization of Uurns' predic tion: "That man to man the world over shall brothers be for all that.". iH-iiuiiiM and Hfv(intuKN of (ho Xorlliwent itlid U 1h liiconoclvalilc t hat I hey MhoilM luck ell lior for inalcrial m- for liiNplratloit.
