Mr Carnegie on Anglo-Sexen Destisy.

Mr Andrew Carnegie waß on May 14th presented with the freedom of the ( Worshipful (jDmpany of Plumbers, London, " in recognition of the enlightened methods and exceptional magnitude of his public benefactions to scientific and technical education, tending to enable the poorer members of the community to take advan tage of the educational facilities which the ; developments of modem science and scho ilastic methods have placed within their preach." ; The ceremony took place in the Guildhall. . Mr Carnegie, in the course of his speech, said:—lt is so easy to create poverty and pauperism by giving, and so difficult to lessen it. Curative measures seem ineffec tive and of litt'e moment. We mast get at prevention, and that is probably only to be reached through the instruction of the people leading to better habits, for much of the extre-rie poverty of the people comes from lack of sobriety, prudence, and thrift. Where it arises from other causes, such as disability orfndisposition or confirmed in temperance causing permanent pauperism, they become the proper care of tht State, liot of the individuals. If all the money devoted to charitable ends were wisely ■-: given and wisely administered we should make some headway. But much of that which well meaning people give is not only useless; some of it may be positively harm ful, and widens the area of the misery + whiGh they fondly desire to contract. In discriminate charity works evil, and that ' continually; and, generally speaking, in dividual charity is beneficial only when it ; helps people to help themselves. No man ' can be pushed up a ladder who does not do some of the climbing himself. ! Hear hear.

THE DIGNITY OF LABOUR. I When we visit the night classes in our j technical schools, attended by young men who'spend all their evenings in gaining in struction, we cannot fail to remember that many of • the > greatest have been crafts men. The greatest of all, Shakespeare, was a woolcarder. The greatest of Scotland, Burns was a ploughman. Watt was a hammerman. Arkwright, Hargreaves, Cort, Nelson, were all craft men. Colnmbus was a deokworker, and my valued friend, the famous Pittsburger, Westinghouse, whom I am delighted to see here to-day—(Applause)—and many others to whom the world is greatly indebted laboured with their hands. There is no ruler foundation upon whioh to develop the inventor than manual labour. My right to the title of craftsman will pass unchallenged in any part of the world, for my first dol lars were earned by manual labour. (Ap plause.) I stand before you as a representa tive of both the old and the new, being neither exclusively of one or the other, yet of both—a Scottish American—one my na tive, and the other my adopted country. (Applause.) I like to think of them as mother and wife, both to be greatly loved. (Applause,) Such they are to me. I never Bee the two flags entwined as I see them before me now without finding the lump in my throat. (Applauses It is many years'since there first floated from our Castle in Scotland a double flag, the Stars and Stripes and the Union Jack, sewn together. It floats there now—a symbol heralding, I believe, what is to come. Even to-day the position justifies suoh a flag. When yachting on the Medi terranean one calm morning I found only a single flag displayed. I said to the cap tain, "What is the matter with the united flag ?" , "Sir, there isn't wind enough to day. In calm seas the united flag droops, being heavy." A stiff breeze came in the afternoon, and I came on deck to see the united flag unfurled to the breeze like a thing of joy. It is the day of storm and danger that will bring out that united flag, and woe to those who stand against it. . (Loud applause.)

It's an easy job for the barber to part the hair on a head like this. It's just as easy to prevent baldness if you only do the right thing. Baldness is almost always a sure sign of neglect; it is the story of neg lected dandruff. Dandruff is untidy., unnecessary, and unhealthy. ft 8 11 B B gs cures dandruff and prevents baldness.
