O|H i ed ’ Ca “ UOt be SUe«BSfully imitated. It is an original force a creative process. Every man will be a failure just in proportion as he get* away from himself and tries to be somebody else and to express some body else instead of himself. I’owei comes front within or from nowhere. Be y ourself. Listen to the voice within. There is room for improvement in every profession, in every trade and In every business. The world wants men who can do things in new and better ways. Don't think because your plan or idea has no precedent or because you are young and inexperienced that vou will not get a hearing. The man who has anything new and valuable to give to the world will be listened to and will be followed. The man of strong individuality, who dares to think his own thought and originate bis own method and who is not afraid to be himself, not a copy of some om else, quickly gets recognition. Nothing else will attract the attention of your employer or the rest of the world so quickly as originality and unique ways of doing things, especially if they ore effective.—Orison Swett, Warden in Success Magazine. Isolation of the Untanght Deaf Mute. The eye can never take the place of the ear. During the first twelve or fourteen years of normal life, knowledge enters the mind mainly through the ear. The little deaf mute is, therefore, a thousand times more isolated than the child who is born blind. In the domain of morals the uneducated deaf mute's isolation is made dangerous by the fact that the allurements to jin are mostly addressed to tLe eye, while its restraints, in youth at least, are mainly appeals to the ear. Moreover, the blind child, cultivating his hearing, is only going back to nature—to his forbears, the cave dwellers. Next to the search for food, listening for sounds is, perhaps, man’s strongest primal instinct. The deaf learner, dependent solely upon his eyes, has, of course, the first instinct, without the safeguard of -the second.—Reader. The Violin. It seems strange to think that my violin was once a tree, but I do not know what else could have caught the music that lies within it, waiting for the touch. It must be centuries old, and through all those years it was listening and learning, weaving in with its growth the forest melodies to sing to generations yet unborn. Wind and wave and song of bird, crash of thunder, drip of rain and mat ing call—all of these are in the fiber of the violin. And the thousand notes of sea and storm, the music of the waterfall and stream—what wonder that it is so nearly the human voice! There must have been a love story in that ' forest, for it sings love, love and only love, though I do not remember bear ing it until I knew you.—Fuel. ORIGINAL GRETNA GREEN. Many Came Across English Border to Have the Knot Tied. A recent writer on the departed glories of the original Gretna Green in Scotland has this to say of the "priests" who did the marrying for the hurrying, anxious persons who came to them from across the English border, ibe men who took up the trade ot manning had often been previously engaged in some other occupation. Some weie stonemasons, some were weavers and many were border idlers and poachers. Among these last it is possible that a blacksmith may at some time have taken to joining hands instead of iron, but no one of the calling ever rose to fame in the marriage line." Joseph Paisley, who first made the marriage trade "hum," is described as nothing better than a drunken freebooter. But lie was equal to this Incident: "On one occasion his services were required simultaneously by two couples, both in a desperate hurry, and after the ceremony it was discovered that, by a trifling mistake, the wrong brides and bridegrooms had been united. ‘A well.' said Paisley contentedly, •jest sort yersels.’ ” Eventually the "Gretna priests became so numerous, competition so keen, that they waited on the English border for the arrival of "customers None of them obtained a reputation tor riches, nor were they able to retire on their earnings, but died in harness. The usual price for celebrating a mar ri-o’e was half a crown (3S’i> cents), but one” poor couple got off for sixpence, and a still poorer couple for L',. pence. —Chicago News. Doomed the Colonel. Emperor William I. of Germany was a strict disciplinarian. One day during the maneuvers of the army a cavalry regiment charged at a strongly intrenched and cinbatteried Milage, which the garden walls were lined with marksmen. "Look, look, exclaimed the Russian representative. •That regiment is lost.” "No," was the emperor's calm reply, "this regiment isuh but the colonel certainly is." And, sure enough, at the close of the.maneuvers be was placed on the retired list lire Object. ••I C an recommend you to a good law ’Tin ririit. but don't let him be too \ r trviug to conduct my busiThe Mnrt. uxssxrSs’ I sah.-Phll«delphia BvUettn, ...
