I have always believed that the reserve of the better-class Englismen. was due to shyness, but I think that their silence comes rather from a poverty of ideas, and must confess. that there is not much intellectual refreshment in the company of the better-class Englishmen. They seem to take it for granted that they are superior, and let it go at that, and to know a great man seems to be the same as to be one. They seem to feel that curiosity is akin to bad manners, and naiveness to ignorance. However, when one strikes among their workers and thinkers of the better class, what wonderful men they are, that think so straightly and

I found that in England I had had a great mother all along and never knew it.

"I used to love to stand on Lon don Bridge in the evening' and watch the mists gradually cover the Houses

of Parliament until they were only an outline, of the world and yet not of it, and think what Parliament had meant to the liberties of the world, and how in a measure we could never thank it for what it had contributed to the institutions and the common laws of my beloved homeland..

"We have felt the heart-beats of the mother of our race and are proud to be her children, and to have paid slightly, very slightly, our debt to her in the hour of her need."
