' 36 Peachtree Street, ATLANTA, GA. in New Orleans, and on the same day, in the same chapter, Winston, ditto broke, (down in Mobile), “reaches for his steel-bladed knife, and, with a long-drawn lick, cuts his throat from ear to ear.” On the same day, still in the same ’blood-stained chapter, John King, another of the sons-in-law, leaps from a ferry boat into the Hudson River and meets a wet death. Alex Wilson, the fourth son-in-law, who had been living down on the old farm, also about broke, after brooding for a week and two pages, “reaching into his wardrobe, grasped the steel weapon of death, placed it to his mouth and pulled the trigger.” Whatever the steel weapon of death was, or just what the effect of placing such a thing in one’s mouth and pulling the trigger may be, Alex Wilson, in this particular case, fell dead. The chapter now con cludes. ‘lt was all over—he was dead.” So much for Wilson; perhaps the reader still lingers. Here is a eineh for the undertaker—Col. Shelton, Mrs. Shelton, and their four sons-in-law all dead in one short chapter. In the first fifteen lines of the next chapter Mrs. Winston dies of a nervous disease; Mrs. Kinston died of fever and general break down; and Mrs. King died of pneumonia. There are seven children left orphans by these deaths. Wilson’s widow takes the seven orphans, together with her own two semi-orphans and goes to Cincinnati, where she establishes a music and art school. It would have been more artistic to make her open an or phanage. Now Winston and Kinston and Wilson and King Are decently dead, all four; But here is the rub: wha t a horrible thing If Wingston or Kilson or Kingston or Wing ■Should threaten to live some more! So the book concludes. It should be read by every one, and it is the purpose of this review to assist in bringing it to the attention of the public. Such readers will doubtless find many things in the book to commend its author’s intentions but also much, evidence that art has been sacrificed to haste, and that the author should in future wait some time before placing his productions with the publishers. Things that Thinker! Think. «■ The absolute need of faith in self is thus tersely expressed by John Trotwood Moore: “No man can be great who does not believe in himself.” Dr. Emma E. Walker has this to say of our common enemy: Worry is inability to withdraw attention from unpleasantness.” Worry is a vice. You can overcome it if you will. Things that trouble you at night will not trouble you after eight hours of refreshing sleep. Distract your attention from unpleasant thoughts. Hear Orison Sweet Marden, the brilliant editor of “Success”: Give me the man who, like Emerson, sees longevity in his cause, and who believes there is a remedy for every wrong, a satisfaction for every longing soul; the man who believes the best of everybody, and who sees beauty and grace where others see ugliness and deformity. Give me the man who believes in the ulti mate triumph of truth over error, of harmony and discord, of love over hate, of purity over vice, of light over darkness, of life over death. Such men are the true nation builders.* Our idea of justice—what we demand from the world as justice—is sometimes different from that of Charles Gallaudet Trumbull. He says: “No man could give twenty-four hours comfortably if he got justice from his fellows; and no man can even approximately render justice to others.” It was President Roosevelt who, on one occasion, said in a public ad dress: “A man is bound to work for a living if he needs it. If not, he is bound to work for the good of the public.” Obedience is what makes good soldiers. Washington Gladden says, “No man is good for anything who has not learned the easy, prompt, cheerful submission of his will to rightful authority.” James Whitcomb Riley expresses himself thus in regard to determination versus talent: “I believe he is richer for the battle of life, in any vocation, who has great determination and little talent, rather than his seemingly more fortunate brother with great talent, perhaps, but little determination.” It is good for us all to refrain from harsh and hasty judgment of our fellow men, and to imitate what Francis of Assisi calls “the great Courtesy of God, who maketh His sun to shine and His rain to fall upon the just and upon the unjust.”—Henry Van Dyke. G. Campbell Morgan lays down this ultimatum: “The man who has a right to rule is the man who knows how to be ruled. The only man fit to issue orders is the man accustomed to obey orders.” There is no study in the world better worth men’s while, than the proper study of Theology, and none that is more sadly needed in this particular period of Theological investigation and discussion.—“ Southern Churchman” (Richmond, Va).
