A Glimpse of Whittier.
In Mary Timelier Higginson's "Life
of Thomas Wentworth Higginson" is
this sketch of Whittier as he appeared
upon first aeqmiintauce:
"I spent a day in Amesbury und saw
Whittier. Dark, slender, bald, black
hulled, kind. calm. Sashing eyed. keen,
somewhat narrow, not commanding,
but interesting. Evidently injured by
politics, easily content with limited
views, yet sympathetic and iprobalily)
generous, Lives In an appropriate cot-
tage. yet very simple. A queer coin-
pound of Yankee Quaker mid Yankee
hero and Yankee poet, the nationality
everywhere,
He would whittle, no
doubt, Hut his eye gleamed with a
soft, beautiful tenderness as he came
to the door and remarked on the cold
sunset sky.
He lives with an odd
Quaker dressed mother, who haunted
the back room with knitting and spec
tacles.”

A Long Lfo and a Broad One.
An English doctor recently said that
nnhilion to live to a great old age isn't
t good one and doubted whether con-
stunt efforts to lengthen the average
life are for the good of the race. De
apparently favors a short life and a
merry one. Perhaps it isn't long life
that makes tin- world happy, but broad
life. Thirty full, energetic years may
fe better than sixty years of common
placo drudgery. Hut why not sixty
fuff. energetic years?
Who knows
what the world loses when a num dies
d thirty? So much has been necom
pfished by men who have reached sixty
ind even seventy and eighty that It
seems good policy to keep all persons
■m earth as long as possible. Th*
man who honestly disapproves effort«
tn prolong life Is a rarity and It is
