Te the man of cultivated mind no joy is keener, no delight is mero subtle than the thought lhat by the wield ing of his pen he may play upon the emo eme tibnsTJf his fellows as a musician upon his instrument. liut wliere tlie pegs are se many and the holes se few, he who ventures ujien the troubled sea of literature must be content te atcir for many moons without a 1 udder. He must be prepared for btein criticism, and hts ears must grew accustomed te the laconic editorial utterance " lejected with thanks." Toe often also must he find his mental inferiors sitting in judgment upon him. Hut if he is made of the right kind of stuff he will pass through this liery fur nace test, and live te bless the discipline whereby he beeame stronger and better.

An exaggerated idea is always given out at buch times about the awful dignity with which a man becomes invested by tlie meie fact of having been president of llie United' States'. It is assumed that this unfits blm " for returning te the business or profession from which he had been drawn. Xe idea could be nioie erroneous.

Franklin Pierce's last days were sad, but net because of any Inherent fault in tlie ofllce he had held, or because it had imposed upon him mero dignity than he could support.
