All Are Blind
Who Can't
See
Needs of
Fellow Men
By HELEN KELLER. Ftmous
Blind and Deif Girl
% T O one of us can do anything alone. We are BOUND TO
! >^1 G ETHER. I do not liko this world as it is. I am trying
I i to make it a little more as I would like to nave it. Per
J haps you arc thinking how blind I have been. You have
your eyes, and you behold the sun, and yet you arc MORE BLIND
THAN I AM. It was the hands of others that maao this miracle
in me. Without my teacher I should be nothing. WE LIVE BY
AND FOR EACH OTHER.
WE ARE ALL BLIND AND DEAF UNTIL OUR EYES ARE OPEN
TO OUR FELLOW MEN. IF WE HAD A PENETRATING VISION WE
WOULD NOT ENDURE WHAT WE SEE IN THE WORLD TODAY.
THE LANDS. THE LIFE, THE MACHINERY BELONG TO THE FEW.
ALL THE WORK THEY DO GAINS FOR THE WORKERS A MERE
LIVELIHOOD. STRANGE THAT WE DO NOT SEE IT, AND WHEN
WE DO WE ACCEPT THE CONDITION IN BLIND CONTENT.
The rich are willing to do everything for the poor except give
them their rights. They say the workers are not thrifty enough. If
the worker is not thrifty enough and does not save it is because the
jcreatest part of what he produces GOES TO SOME ONE ELSE
who does the saving.

C\ 1 IX FIFTEEX iHNUTES. Wc can HARDLY WAIT
TO READ. Moving pictures must tell us the day's news.
Sermons must be exceedingly short. We CAN SCARCE
LY STOP TO BURY OUR DEAD. Messages are in codes. Busi
ness orders aro in monosyllables.
ONE RESULT SHOWS ITSELF PHYSICALLY. PEOPLE BECOMfc
NEUROTIC and HYSTERIC. YOUR SELF FORGETFUL PERSON IS
SENSITIVE AND WORRIED AND YOUR SELFISH PERSON DISTURB
ING AND OISAGREEABLE. NOT A FEW. SLEEPLESS AND DESPOND
ENT. WISH THEMSELVES DEAD. NATURE CRIES OUT FOR CALM
NESS AND REST.
Hip!) pressure is felt in business. Get-rich-quick schemes flourish.
COMPETITION' IS KEEN AND CRUEL and crowds mon to
chcat in ?nods and measure. An honest man is worth while in these
and he must ROW AGAINST THE TIDE.
LISZT AND HIS CIGARS.
Why th* Groat Musician Said H?
.Would Quit Smoking.
Liszt was lu the habit o t smoking
one cigar a day. But that oue cigar
was nu exceedingly choice one. When
be was starting on a Journey he told
his valet bow uiauy days be would be
away. an<l bis valet put Into the valise
a corresponding number of those ci
gar*.
Once when Liszt was going to Italy
the chli'f customs officer at the frontier
post of Chlasso asked him If he had
anything to declare. The musician,
with bis thoughts centered on bis mu
sic rather than his cigars, made signs
to the effect that he bad nothing. The
officer opened the vails? without the
traveler agitating himself over the
search. Presently a number of cigars
were brought to light. The whole lot
was confiscated, and be was ordered to
pay a flue of $100.
When Liszt reached Milan he told bis
agent of his unpleasant adventure. RI- '
cordl laughed at '.be *yhole affair, took j
a stroll to tlie Itnlinti treasury ana re
covered the clears nud the One. Ou
returning to the artist he offered him,
with ii smile, one of hit* own precious
cigars
"No. my dear friend," said I.lszt, "1
have takeu a vow never to suioko again
ho as not to expose myself a second
time to such a humiliation."
Itlcordl says he kept his vow. Other
authorities recall Reger's visit to the
virtuoso In 1870.
"I-Nxt smoked and offered mo a ci
gar." said lleger. "and whllo I took my
ease he walked up and dowo, send'jg
out clouds of smoke in tho direction of
certain terra cotta figures."? New York
