* The Possibilities of Boy. I have a profound respect for boys. Grimy, rapped, tousled boys iii the street often attract me strangely. A boy is a man in the cocoon?you do not know what it is soinj: to become?his life i? bii: with possibilities. He may make or unmake kinjrs, chance boundary lines between States, write books that will mould characters, or invent machines that will revolutionize the commerce of the, world. Every man was a boy? it feHeni* France, but it i> really so. it*. 11 1.1... ... ?;?.o W UU iU II I VUW nrvtr ?u 1 win viuav > backward and see .Abraham Lin-; coin at twelve, when he had never j worn a pair oi boots??ihe lank, lean, yellow hungry bov. hungry fur Jove, hungry for learning.

There wa& that Corsican boy,one o! a goodly brood, who weighed ! only iifty pounds when ten years old, who was thin and pale and perverse and had tantrums and had to be sent supperless to bid or locked in a dark closet because he wouldn't ' mind!" Who would have thought that he wou'd j have mastered every phase of war We at twentv-six, and when the exchequer of France was in diie C. nftision would say, ''The finances? I .vi 11 arrange them. ' Distinctly and vividly I rememIh*i a squat, freckled boy who was born in the *Patch" and used to J pick itn coal along railroad tracks in Buffalo. A lew months ago I had a motion to make before the Court of Appeals at Rochester. That boy from the "Patch" was the Judge who wrote the opinion granting my petition. _ L V Ke patient wnn ine o?vs. ion are dealing with soul-stuff! Destiny wailn just around the corner.
