Common Sense from One Who Doesn't
Agree with Carnegie.
Mr. Carnegie has just been telling
the people of Covan that "the finest
I heritage for a young niau is poverty."
' This la hit* owu belief, and It was also
the belief, he affirms, of President
Carlleld. Admitting the general cor
rectness of this severely Spartan dictum.
still, the tirst criticism that oc- ;
i curs Is that perhaps President Gar

i stock of lowly parentage;" by the na

caine to fill a large space In the field
of view of the world's feme. For
them the hardy climate of early povcrty
and struggle proved to be the
best. But docs it follow that It must .
therefore be the best for every one. I
for those natures, for Instance which,
while gifted with fine and high possibilities.
lack the uatural hardihood
and tough. stern strength of men like
President tJarfleld and Mr. t'nrnegie?
Almost inevitably these mfchty men.
when they have reached the crowning
slope, cannot help thinking that what
proved an invigorating discipline for
them must be the same to every one.
Hut is such a generalization warranted
by facts? In Kngland the climate
of a conservatory would lie the very
worst for the oak, hut It is the best
for the vine. May not human peculiarities
of gifts of genius and innate
jiossibilities of "deeds of high cmprize"
similarly differ? Knervating
surroundings, of course, must in every
case he injurious, but what would bo

that Mr. Carnegie's and President

Veracious Account of the Artist ant
the Dairy Maid.
,Ah! What have we here?"
"It Is the United States sun rising
ou a farm scene In New Jersey. The
grass sparkles with dew, the songs ol
tlie lark gladden the heart, and tht
cows in the barnyard chew their endin
peace as they wait for the dairj
maid to appear with her pall.**
"Is that The dairy maid tripping
lightly down the path toward tht
bars ?"
"oh, no. That is an artist from
Nexv York, who has arranged tc

en or eight cows in it. and he will

Bossy as he tills the pull. If any
critic gives hint a roasting on his
painted cows he can get back at li'ni
by saying he has milked a cow and
ought to know which way her leg*

"lie secius undecided which cow to
begin on."
"lie's studying attitudes and wishing
he had his sketch book at hand.
There is far more grace in a cow
than he ever dreamed of. Now he
approaches a cow ami takes a graceful
position on the milk stool. The
cow looks at hint <|uecrly. a< you will
observe, but that's because she's fartow
and being fattened for market.
It's about a year since any one sat
down within reach of her hoof."
"I can no longer see the artist. for
the cloud of dust. Is he s ill there?"
"<?h. no. lie left ten minutes ago
and brought up against the old wagon
box under the shed. lie has a
corn cultivator down the back of his
neck, an old fanning mill jabbed into
his ear, anil his leg are tangled up
with a patent drag and a potato
planter. The kick, won't kill him
though, lie will continue lying there
until fully rested, and then go to the
house to arrange his canvas.'
"Will lie ever be a blithe and ha|>py
artist again?"
"till yes. but not in the cow line,
lie will probably turn to inules or
hogs uud give cows the go-by. and ill
due time lie will be able to get the
porous planters off his back and call
