Among the features of the convention
la the annual address of the as
sociation's president. Professor But
ler, of Columbia college, New
Tork. on "Whet Knowledge Is of the
Most TVorth," was a scholarly paper, to
which a brief synopsis falls to do Jus
tic. He said In part:
"Tb student of history is struck with
the complexity of moUern thought. From
the dawn of philosophy to the rreat re
vival of learning the lines of development
ars comparatively simple and titrect. Dur
ing that pertod on may trace, step by
step, the evolution of the main problem
of thought and action, and ir'.acover read
ily how th theory of the seers stood the
test of appiloatlon by the m-n of deeds.
"Iatnese modern days all this is changed.
Kan has com to doubt not only his su
premacy in the universe, but even h:s im
portance. A host of new knowledges has
appealed to human sympathy and inter
est, and has taxed them to the utmost.
Within a generation or two biology has
been created, and physics, chemistry and
gootogy haven been born strain. Already
It la proclaimed by Nordeau and his school
that we are In an age of decadence, and
that many of our contemporary Interpre
ters of life and thought Wanner. Tolstoi.
Ibsen, Zola, the pre-Rapl.aeiite-ure tU
subjects for an Insane asylum.
"Amid all this confusion, however, a
light has been growing stemlily brighter
for those who have eyes to h.--. In our
own country two great masters of thoueht
have come forward offering, Ike Adriadn
of old. to place in our hands the guiding
thread that shall lead us through the laby
rinththe German Hegel and the English
man Herbert Spencer Hegel, schooled !n
the teachings of Kant and Flchte. and
coming early to an appreciation the seed
thought of Plato and Aris'.otle, Bruno and
Splnosa, has taught us in unmistakable
language that Independent, self-active be
ing la the father of all things. Spencer,
feeling the thrill of that unity which
makes the cosmos one, and receiving from
d von the hint that led
see Inat the Me or the Individual
life of the aggregate, whether nat
soclal, has formulated Into a single
Irrefutable law of progress the terms
that development, or evolution, which
been more or less dimly before the
The Privace of Thonght.
"Despite the fact that our age Is one of
unexampled scientific and industrial prog-
, yet nothing In all our modern scien
tific activity is more striking than the In-
aisputacie primacy or inougnt. Thought,
not In antagonism to Sense, but Interpre
tative of the date of sense. Idealism,
shorn of Its crudities and its extrava
gances, and based on reason rather than
on Berkeley's analysis of sense-perception,
is conquering the world. The physicist,
also,' Is coming to see that his principles
of the conversation of energy In Its var
ious manifestations. Is a new and start
ling proof of the fundamental philosophical
principle of self-activity. Energy mani
fests ltsjlf as motion, heat, light, elec
tricity, chemical action, and sound. Each
form of Its manifestation Is transmutable
Into others. The self-active cycle Is com
plete. . I regard this Insight as to self-activity
and the primacy of reflective thought
as the profound set that philosophy has to
offer; and. Instead of being urged, as In
centuries past. In antagonism to the
teachings of science. It is now becoming
the Joint conclusion of philosophy and
science together.
"The question that I am a;!ng What
knowledge Is of most worth? is a very old
one, and the answers to It that have been
fcanded down through the centuries are
many and various. It Is a question, that
each age must put to Itself, and answer
from the standpoint of its deepest and
widest knowledge. The wisest phlloso-

phers have always seen, more or lees
clearly, the far-reaching character of the
question and the great Importance of the
answer. Socrates and Plato. Augustine
and Aquinas, wars under no Illusions as
to It; but often la later years the deeper
questions relating to educational values
have been either lost sight of entirely or
very superficially dealt with. If It be true
that Spirit and Reason rule the universe,
then the highest and most enduring knowl
edge Is of the things of the spirit. That
subtle serse of the beautiful and the sub
lime which acompanlea spiritual Insight,
and is part of It. Is the highest achieve
ment of which humanity is capable. To
develop this sense In education is the task
of art and literature, 1o interpret it la the
work of philosophy, and to nourish It the
function of religion. Because It moat fully
represents the higher nature of man, H Is
man's highest possession, and those stud
ies that directly appeal to it and Instruct
It are beyond compare the most valuable.
School the Training. '
"If the school Is to be the tra'nlng ground
for citizenship, its products must be use
fully and soundly equipped as well as well
disciplined and well-informed. An edu
cated proletariat to use the forcible para
dox of Bismarck Is a continual source of
disturbance and danger to any nation.
Acting upon this conviction, the great
modern democracies and the time seems
to have come when a democracy may be
detlned as a government, of any form, in
wh!ch public opinion habitually rules are
everywhere having a care that provision
be made for the practical, or immediately
urn ful. In education. This is as it should
be, but it exposes the school to a new
series of dung'rs against which it must
guard. I'tlllty is a term that may be
given either a very broad or a very nar
row meaning. There are utilities higher
and utilities lower, and under no circum
stances will the true teacher ever permit
the former to be sacrificed to the latter.
Man's rational freedom is the goal, and
the sciences are the lower steps on the
ladder that reaches to it.
"The actions of the lower animals are
conducted by sensations and momentary
impulses. Man, on the other hand, is en
abled to raise himself above fle.'tlng sensa
tions to the realm of Mens, and in that
realm he finds real life. Similarly, man's
will gradually frees itself from bondage
to a chain of causes determined for It
from without, and attains to a power of
independent self-determination according
to durable and continuing ends of action.
This constitutes character, which, in Mr.
Emerson's tine phrase, is the moral order
seen through the medium of an individual
nature. Freedom of the will is not, then,
a metaphysical notion, nor is it obtained
from nature or seen in nature It is a de
velopment In the life of the human soul.
Freedom and ratiorallty are two names
for the same thing, and their highest de
velopment Is the end of human life."

From the Herald of Health.
We deal honorably, frankly and fairly
with you and It coats you nothing to con
sult us. There are some diseases which
at certain times no man living can cure.
But there are. no diseases which cannot
be benefited and life prolonged with the
right kind of treatment. Dr. Smith has
ever made It a life long rule to be honest
with his patients. If he says he can cure
your trouble be will accomplish It. When
Invalids hear these cheering words, "I can
cure you;" that is If they know him, hope
springs into new being within their
breasts and from that . very Instant a
change takes place which, as a rule, brings
them back to physical as well as mental
health and vigor. It Is this new birth of
liopo and confidence In Dr. Smith, an ab
solute faith In his powers and an absolute
belief In his methods which has led hosts
of patients to remark, "Well, doctor, I feel
a hundred per cent, better for just having
had this talk with you." And there Is a
psycological reason for this statement
which is much deeper than any one would
suppose. When a patient loses confidence
in a doctor, no matter how skilled he may
be, that doctor's usefulness ceases. The
absolute belief of a patient that he has at
last found a doctor who can cure him is
worth more to the doctor than all the
medicines he Is acquainted with. Dr.
Smith and staff are permanently located in
Scranton, Pa. Their parlors at present are
at No. 812 Wyoming avenue. They may
be consulted absolutely free of charge
from 9 to 5 dally except Sunday. They will
remain In Scranton permanently. Should
they move their office In the near future
notice will be given in all of the dally pa

We have turned those Odd and End Prices loose on these
Rockers (or this reason, We are overloaded. This la how It came
about: They were forced upon the market. Our buyer was on
hand and gobbled them up at exactly half price. They are the
popular cobblcr-seat kind, genuine leather, heavily embossed. The
frames are Oak, Curly Birch and Mahogany Finish, and the price
is simply ridiculous. '
HAVOC IN RUG DEFT
Have been weeding them out and find too many of the Odd
