need Dot be opened here. Yet there is
one word of couiifvI which now more
than ever in this Paan aire of denial
and democracy ought to be spoken to
the youth of America. Be yourselves,
and never abandon yonr noble aspira
tions! Yon cannot live in abwlute Independ
ence of the worl'L You niust have
affiliations with other persons. But it is
not im'K-rative that those affiliations
should be numerous, and yon have it
within yonr power to make them select.
You are under no obligation to imitate
others or to do as others do.
Yon on'ht never to permit yonr
minds to be inundated with the igno
rance, the crudity and the vapid chatter
of commonplace persons. Do not too
much reverence the pant. Old bnrdens
that have rolled from the shoulders of
weary and dying men and women should
not be taken up again by yon.
It is yonr life that yon must lire; it is
not theirs; and now that they rest from
their labors, let their works follow them,
Neither most you suppose yourselves en
joined to assume the burdens that other
iKiaona have created in the present day.
AVOID TOO If ANT FRIENDS.
Let those attend to grievances who
have tbem, and do not allow your spirits
to be dejected, yonr hopes darkened and
your lives encumbered with the vices,
the errors, the follies and the weakness
of failures and of fools. It is, no doubt,
pitiable and deplorable that failures and
fools should exist and sufTer; but they
musff not be permitted, merely because
they exist and suffer, to draif you also
into failure and folly. Respect the sanc
tity of your souls, and beware of super
fluous contact with other lives.
For it is only the temporary and the
expedient that is gTegarions. In every
great moment of life in every time of
insight or inspiration or crisis the hu
man being is alone. The object of edu
cation, therefore, should be the develop
ment and building of an original, noble,
adequate character not simply a prep
aration for industrial pursuits, but aa
armament for everlasting life.
The occupations of this world, how.
ver important, are transitory. The soul
of man is immortal Other views, I am
aware, are commonly entertained. Peo
ple who claim to be practical but are
only narrow arc never weary ef declar
ing that education innst be sensible and
not vlnionary. An effort to worry the
public mind on this snbject is a part of
the er-ant activity of the complacent
man of busiurns, all the world over, and
lias been so, at iriodic Intervals, for
many years.
I r'tn-uiber its pernicious existence
lonir the jalons sneer at what was
called "bxi learning," as opposed to
what was railed practical knowledge of j
attaint; ue-amng thereby cotton, iron,
coal, the Stuck exchange and the He
vised btatutes.
BOMB BNKF.R AT EDUCATION.
Not long since in 1MD0, in the news
papers of New York that epidemic of
mean coturnorpiii'A c.nmt forth with un
common virulence, and virions individ
ual, iu every cane poosesHud of more
wealth than sense, apprised us that
cholantic training is superfluous, bo
it ii.T.s to fars::h an ejijniit
wholly in excess of what is requisite for
bnsfness.
My dear old friend, William Warren,
the comedian, ned to tell, in his inimit
able way, a story about a pompous
tradesman of the conventional kind,
who onre was addressing the pupils at a
Sunday school. "I knew a little boy,"
lie said, "who always obeyed his mother,
always Traiht-J his face in th morning,
always came early to Sunday school,
never stole an apple. Ami where do
yon think that gwd boy is now?" To
this inquiry a small voice piped out an
auswer, "'In heaven, sir." "Xo, sir,"
tried the disgusted orator, "not in
heaven! lie's in a store!"
That is the mental drift of those ene
mies of the higher education. To their
minds the chief end of man is to get him
self employed in a store. They are what
Joseph Jefferson calls "the selfish made
men of our time." Certainly the fact is
aignificant that the sensitive feeling is
all on one side.
Educated men are not worried. If
education has not always given them
wealth, it has given them blossings that
no prodigality of 'wealth can buy, and
by this token they know that the prov
ince of education is not to train yonng
jicople for business, but to embark them
np"ii lifit of which business is only an
incident. The tent wisdom of the wis
et of mankind has always taught that
lesson.
Make yonr business tributary to your
mind, and tmt yt.r.r mind subservient to
your buMiie. New York Tribune.

In the summer time Thomas works at
whatever he can get to do about the
cities in this vicinity and through to
Ohio. When the squirrel season opens
be is in Ohio, and puts in the first few
weeks of the autumn shooting squirrel.
As the deer season opens, he emigrates
northward, and for the re-t of the win
ter lives the life of the solitary hunter,
shunning human habitations and sleep
ing in the wood in the most irich-uieiit
weather. His domestic outfit consists of
a tent, blankets and a small stove, and
he declares that he is more contented in
the woods than he would be in town.
When the night is cold he lights bis fire,
chains his dog op in the tent and sleeps.
While the der run, Hopkins follows
