The scandals now coming out in J the building tiades in New York city shows what has eau ed the hous ing troubles of that city and not the profiteering landlords entirely. Fear is the thing which causes us: to take some action before it is time , and thus do ourselves an injury, j Foar is a gieat preserver in some j ways, and in others it is a great de- j strove r. o Improvements come with time, but' not fast enough; and the only wav to increase the speed of public improve-!, ments is to be willing to come across ' villi the cash that it lakes to ac- , complish them. o Some men fail to do anything in the world because they never have , anything definite in view to accom plish. A man is jrre.it according as , he has something in view and goes ahead to accomplish that. The humh . lest day laborer is a success when i he accomplishes his purpose. o I The circus is a good example of the ( value of advertising.

Where the home under mortgage, there are debts hanging over the family, there ! is nothing ahead for misfortune or rainy day, then indeed there is a! bail time on hand even at this present time; and a worse time is coming if all signs fall true. o What is the worst thing at this | present time lor the cotton growers' who have their crop* on hand ? It ! is to be found in the fact that most of them used up the bi^- money they have been making du/mg the last three years in riotous living and big spending, so that this money is not j now in the bank to theii credit. If) they had this moni y now they couid | afford to hold their cotton until the price goes up. A it is, they must sell or the merchant or fertilize) man or automobile man will take it under his crop mortgage. o It is an old saying that has beer; j tested and tried, that murder will j out.

By it lie hop s to communicate with those who live on the plain ts, if in f:u-t, there is any human life there at all. lie has hi^h Ik pes about the :esuits ho attain. In an inte'view given out some time a,re. Edison stated his theory* and oau.es el* death. He says that I every human body, as well as every piece of matter of any kind in this world, ?s composed of countless minute cells, which by him are called, the life of the body, or entities, ei:h a separate thing in itself,-* but far too small to 'he seen even by the most powerful magnifying glasses. So long- as these entities remain i*i ; body it is alive; when that body Incomes unsatisfactory as a p'ace fo.them, either from sickress or old ago. they leave the place and (he result h what we know as death. Edison claims that according to his theory, these entities are not destroyed or lost but are still alive in some other form or body. According to him these entities form a group, are the soul of the body, and are never dead. I He goes on to say that what we see as mountains may he but the knuckles on a larger man's hand, what we know a-s rivers may be veins; in the same way that one of the so-called entities forming the skin on your hand may look upon the the thumb i\:ii 1 a vast plain There may he something in his theory and perhaps his new machine may throw some light on the mystery of life and death, and life o nother worlds; bur there is doubt. o Wo have seen Conway grow from the si:<-? of a cross-mads store community to a town which has several business squares: by nu'ling together now we can see it grow into a city il we live lone; enough.
