...which Mr. Rockefeller graduated in 1897. Mr. Rockefeller became interested in the Bible class, became its leader, instructed it for seven years. Now he is its Honorary President. Several times a year he attends its meetings, reads to the members out of Holy Scripture. Pithy platitudes, adopted from Scripture, lard all his public speeches. "The big thing in life is work. . . . Success comes by doing the common, everyday things of life uncommonly well." Hardly original, these utterances are those of a man to whom practicality is native, abstraction difficult, the defect of whose thought is rather narrowness than looseness. Narrow...

She is found by her brother, who recognizes her song at a cabaret--and that's all there is to it. Mrs. Nevil lard has an opportunity in the part of Helea, the daughter, to do some excellent singing, and her voice is well above the standard of musical comedy heroines. Probably the best acting is done by Miss Helen Bennett, who plays the role of the brother...
...Denmark, it is a well-known fact that we were ourselves the first country to establish the doctrine of 'ultimate destination,' by preventing importations into the Mexican port of Matamoros because they were sent from there across the Rio Grande into Texas.
