Never was it more needful to have
positive conviciions, as to right and
wrong, and, 'hc-ving them, to follow
the right.
The best wa; to learn how to talk
is to learn how to think. Even small
talk cannot b > much of a success
without thougl t.
When wealtx y people give way to
outbursts of ?] assion it is called
nerves; when ] oor people do so it is
called ugly tor .per.
?The nonenii .y has neither friend
nor foe; the slrong man makes ene
mies but he also makes friendships
that stand all testing and endure.
The people rtio never fail are the
people who ne 'er atempt much. But
if they do no-; .'ail neither is it possi
ble for them to meet with large suc
cess.
The man who minds his own busi-j
n'ess avoids 1 >ts of trouble which
would strrely < ome to him if he con
oerned himsel.' with other people's
affairs.
Many peopl. who profess williag
r.ess to die fo * their country would
probably be v-jry anxious to live if
they were Ceil ed upon to make the
sacrifice.
A woman i acently shot her hus
band because he was lazy. If such
punishment oi remedy becomes pop
ular what a slaughter there will be
in some conn lunities.
To artificial y raise the price of Ice
or milk in he t weather on the plea
of scarcity of article is inhuman be
cause it mear s untold suffering and
death to multitudes of babies. Men
who make ab: jormal profits on other
commodities fiat are not such neces
pititse are hunane by comparison.
The man w ho is gettng grey with
work, and not hing but work, is not a
? master but a slave. The one imper
ative thing fc him to do is to break
the shackles by letting up on the
stra'.u and th s can best be done by
diverting the thought to other chan
nels, and in t le summertime, by get
ting face to :ace with nature.
The busim ss man who does not
advertise ha; some compensations.
He has pier ty of time for medlta
tation or to 50 fishing. He may sit
hy his store mtrance and watch peo
ple pass by to trade with his more
enterprising competitors. In truth
there is no hing to equal abstain
ence from advertising forgiving the
mercHant triple leisure.
?In this ccuntry about 70 per cent
of the nath nal income is spent in
warlike pr-?i arations and the results
of war whilt but 30 per cent Is spent
for all otht r purposes. If the fig
ures were r >versed how much great
er would b*i the comfort and pros
perity of the people. And startling
as the figur. s are, they compare fav
orably with those of other great na
tions.
Men who cooperate with nature to
bring forth its Tescxurce3 for the ben
efit of huaranity, and the men who
with same purpose convert raw ma
terial into the finished article form
the back x ne of the country and
promote its welfare and prosperity.
They, and not Wall Street are the
real prod i' ers of legitimate wealth
and the otmfort and well-being of
society.
Kansas is in the clutch of the
grasshopp e *s and there is a possi
bility of 1 call on the old "warning
out" law which requires every per
son from twelve to sixty years of
age to lea ;e his regular wo^f: and
fight gras; hoppers. The Charlotte
Observer 1 hinks "such a visitation
is calculat d to start more people to
"home seek ng in the South than all
the back home movements ever
launched."
?King (b orge of England will add
greatly to his popularity by allying
himself de Mnitely with the people in
the matter of the Lord's veto bill.
The striki 1? political events of thee
past two y?ars in Great Britain show
that moTiJ.rchies must represent the
popular .-ill if they are to sur
vive. In its ability to do that, lies
in all probability the permanency of
the B ritbh crown and of British in
stitutions.
So lone as land was plentiful and
cheap int >nsive farm ins- was out of
the question. Farmers found it
cheaper a id more profitable to culti
vate large areas in a somewhat sup
erficial in inner than to go to the ex
pense of extra labor and fertilizers
that inter sive farming demands. But
with the rapid growing population
and steai y advance in farm values
farmers :.nd gardeners will sooner
or later 3nd that it will pay them
better to get twice the number of
bushelB (f grain from an acre than
spread :lat number over two acres.1
Grand Tribute to Bryan.
In , concluding a magnificent
speech on the floor of the House on
the revision of the tariff, Congress
man C. B. Randell, of Tsxas, paid
Wlilliam Jennings Bryan this grand
tribute:
Before I take my seat Mr. Chair
man, I will say there is one thing
I should not overlook. The fre
quent allusion by gentlemen on that
side to a gentleman for whom I am
not a spokesman or mouthpiece, but
for whom I have the highest respect,
challenges my attention. From time
to time I have heard sirring re
marks come across the aisle in ref
erence to the most distinguished
Democrat in this country, and It has
grated on my nerves. No matter
how we may differ in reference to
our political views, all men should
recognize true manhood and merit
wherever they see it.
iAnd if there ever was a man in
this country who stood out fairly
and openly for what hs believed,
and who expressed clearly the views
on each side of every question he
discussed, and who stated with
clearness and fairness the argu
ments for and against, ihat man is
W. J. Bryan. Yet he is abused and
hated. I know nothing like it since
in ancient times. Aristic^ was ban
ished from Athens by a populaT
vote. His ability and probity stood
preeminent. He was called "Vhe
Just." But he was banished. If
the protectionists and grafters would
have their way, Xr. Bryan would
have to see some foreign clime.
Mr. Biryan is a devoted Democrat,
he is a Christian gentleman, he is a
patriot, and he stands high in the
United States and in all the civilized
worid. Why any rr.-n should
speak slightingly of hin;, I do not
know,, and I can not understand why
gentlemen on that side should re
fer to him with unfriendly slurs. I
suppose that Is the price men have
to pay for greatness. As Byron ex
pressed it:
He who ascends to mountain tops
shall find
The loftiest peaks most wrapped
in clouds and snow:
He who surpasses or subdues man
kind
Must look down on the hate of
those below.
But, Mr.-Chairman, in the future
vicissitudes of this nation, in the
calm and in the storm, when reason
rules or passion sways, this same
man Bryan will, in all the days to
come, stand as a tower of Democrat
ic strength, an imeprsonation of civ
i'' righteousness.
Like some tall cliff lifts its aw
ful form,
Swells from the vale, and midway
leaves the storm;
Though Tound bis breast the rolling
clouds are spread,
Eternal sunshine settles on his
head.
There is not a word said by Mr.
Randell in the above that is not true.
It is a grand tribute to a grand man.
Need of Frequent Rest.
As much as we may regret it., we
are compelled to admb. that the old
time view of Sunday that use to ob
tain in this country has changed con
siderably in the past few years, and
the end is not yet. Aside from any
religious use of the day, the best in
' terests of people demand that one
day in seven be differentiated from
the rest. Apart from the moral
question involved it is certain that
the man who works save ndaye in the
week is physically and mentally
burning the candle of life at both
ends.
This is no new idea. It is as old
, as the race, and hai= always been
' true, and always will be true, we be
lieve as long as the human race re
mains what it is. In the height of
the great French revolution when
its leaders declared that everything
savoring of religion should be der
stroyed, the observance of Sunday
was officially abolished and one day
was substituted as a day oif rest and
enjoyment. A very few years' suf
ficed to show that the change was
injuriously affecting individual life
and consequently natonal life, and
a return to the kindlier seventh day
resulted.
Where the Sabbath is observed
the people are better off in every way.
Apply this rule to any country you
please and see if it '? not true. If
for physical and other beneficfat
reasons a seventh day of rest or
recreation was needful in bygone
days when the business and social
life was not so strenuous, how much
more needful is it at the present
time when life is at a killing pace
resulting, in an increasing degree,
in nervousness and other ailments.
Abolish the Sabbath and you inevi
tably make a rich man a tyrant and
the laborer a slave.
In truth so far from letting work
intrude on our Sundays there is real
ly need of greater rest and more hol
idays if due regard is to be paid to
one's health and to - be best interests
of business and home. For that rea
son every man who can should set
aside all business an<? go to the woods
or mountain or seaside that by get
ting into touch with nature he may
shake off care, and renew his
strength that reinvlgorated he may
take up his duties once more with
fresh heart and hope. Of course it
menu:; financial expense but it is an
expense that make.; for true econo
my and conservation of forces.
Keep Children Young.
It is a sad thing to see a child rob
bed of its childhood by being forced
to go to work to earn a living for
itself or parents. Just now some
magazines are exploiting the won
derful precocity of 6ome children,
and the parents of these children
have been airing their methods by
which they have enabled the children
at the tender age c? ten or twelve to
absorb as much, or even more, wis
dom and knowledg' as the average
person can do in twice that number
of years. It s all very entertaining
and interesting, no doubl, but in all
probability the methods if generally
applied would end in failure. The
very rare instances of precocious
minds that keep their strength and
elasticity to mature years only go to
show that the "Admirable" Crich
ton's and Lord Macauley's are very
few and far between. Usually
these phenominal minds degenerate
into learned dunces. Anyway the
the great majority of people will
continue to prefer that children shall
be children to enjoy life in childish
manner and develop naturally along
mental and physical lines, and not
at the early age of ten talk like men
of seventy.
