Mr.. Box says. in his Literary Leaves.
published in The New York Graphic.
that an editor of one of the great maga-
zines said to him, in reply to his question,
"Are personal introductions helpful to
young authors:'
Don't go to friend who knows the
editor and get letter of introduction; it
will bore the friend, the editor and
eventually yourself. If you suggest the
value of q friend at court remember
that the editor has met this scheme
thousand times. 1t means that you ask
him to make an exception of your case
against his Judgment, and this annoys
him to begin with. II you want to sell
firm bill Of goot you do not feel
that you need q letter of introduction to
the buyer, and en- editor is in exactly this
position of one who is always buying
what he thinks is salable.'
There is a good deal OF truth in this
advice Of the magazine editor. The
authors best friend his worst enemy
is his manuscript. at should Le his
letter of introduction without any pre-
iminary fourishes in the shape Of actual
letters Of introduction.-The Epoch.

A Real Hero.

In all the annals of heroic selfsac-
rlhce for the outcaSt and Unfortunate
of humanity no name deserves to rank
above that of Father Damien, the good
priest who sixteen years ago consigned
himself to living death i'm order that
he might render the existence of the
lepers of Molokai, an island oi the
Hawaiian group. little more'tolera BILE.
Father Damien was but thirty-three
years of age when he went voluntarily
as missionary to this loa,hsome and
negit cted island. At the time the
Hawaiian Government deported all
lepers found within the limits of its
authority to this place and left them
to their fate. They were without
shelter, food or medicine. Herded
together like cattle, they had neither
government nor teachers, aud dragged
out despairing lives, with no one To
cheer them or teach them by practice
or precept that there was anything
better for them to do than to curse God
and die.
To this hopeless place Father Damien
went as a preacher. He soon found
much to do besides preaching, and in
his own words "became physicisn of
of soul and body, magistrate, school
acher, carpeoter, joiner, painter,
gardener, hcusekeeper. cook and often
undertaken and grayedigger," 1t was
SO helpful a man should fail
to impart some Of his self-helpful spirit
to the poor wretches by whom he was
and now in the place of
huts and novels the island
has neat cottages, good hospitals,
schools and churches. Others have
been led to follow Father Damien's
seIf-sacrificing example and offer their
services as physicians and teachers.
In 1884 Father Damien contracted
the fatal disease, but did not lose his
spirit of unselfish sacrifice for the good
of Others, and remained at his work
until his death. The fact that he was
able during his sixteen years of service
ir the cause Of these human outcasts
to completely rerolutionize their con-
dition and render their existence at
least tolerable shows that his heroic
of himself was not a vain
and useless sacrifice. Others take up
he work where he dropped it, and it
will continue as an enduring monu-
nent to his unselfish heroism.-Phila-
1elphia Times.

A Kansas City Judge Answers Ques-
tlOnS.

From Circular Sent Out by the Voice.
Q) How successfully has Prohiti-
tion closed the saloons in your part OF
the State?
Answer-It has closed the aloons by
creating double the NUMBER of'dives,n
"ioints" and bootleg dispensatories,
and making perjurers out of otherwise
truthful men.
(2) To what extent in your indg-
ment, has it diminished drunkenness
and the consumption of intoxicants for
beverage purposes?
Apswer-It has increased the num-
Der of drunkards; has decreased the
use of light drinks, and made more
genera! the consumption of IA low grade
of Kansas "killme-quick" whisky.
(3) In your judgment has not the
loss Of the revenue from former saloon
license been more than made good by
the decreasing burdens of panperism
and crime resulting from Prohibition;
and by the directing of the money
formerly spent in the saloons now into
legitimate channels of trade?
Answer-No. Under the present law
the rate of taxation has increased. and
this is especially true and noticea BILE in
the to wns and cities.
(D Would you advise the re-estab-
lishment of the saloons, breweries and
distilleries in Kansas under a High
License law as means calculated to-
benefit the social and business interests
of the STATE?
Answer-Yes. A respectable saloon
would suit our people better, and he
less degrading than a joint in some ol,i
shed or barn made necessary to drink
ers, and a creature Of the Prohibition
laws. +. B. WIDMAN,
Probate Judge.
