It Would Be A Great Thing If

Many Savage Nations Worship Trees, And I Really Think My First Feeling Would Be One Of Delight And Interest Rather Than Of Surprise, If Some Day When I Am Alone In The Woods One Of The Trees Were To Speak To Me.

To Render Ourselves Insensible To Pain We Must Forfeit Also The Possibilities Of Happiness.

Fresh Air Is As Good For The Mind As For The Body. Nature Always Seems Trying To Talk To Us As If She Had Some Great Secret To Tell. And So She Has.

Savages Have Often Been Likened To Children, And The Comparison Is Not Only Correct But Also Highly Instructive. Many Naturalists Consider That The Early Condition Of The Individual Indicates That Of The Race,-that The Best Test Of The Affinities Of A Species Are The Stages Through Which It Passes. So Also It Is In The Case Of Man; The Life Of Each Individual Is An Epitome Of The History Of The Race, And The Gradual Development Of The Child Illustrates That Of The Species.

Rest Is By No Means A Waste Of Time.
