that bear no possible relation one to the other, there is no harmony and to much work, It is q department that demands the services of an experienced business man and politician and a man who has been 6 long time in national public life. Such a man unfortunately Mr. Noble is not. Such a man Mir Clarkson, ghe present Assistant Postmaster General, certainly is, and his eleva- tion to the Secretary&1ip of the Interior would be pleasing to his party.
 You don't see so many of the ideal Texas gentleman as you did a score of years ago. Last week saw one of these gentleman come in to see Postmaster General Tanamaker. His wide soft hat was in his hand, his long hair and moustache and imperial wers black as night, on his wide expanse os shirt front biz cluster diamond pin Kested. His carriage was graceful and his address smooth and convincing. He only wanted to tell Mr. Wanamaker why the Postmaster at his town should be removed at once and republican friend of his be appointed.
 "But I have promised Rev. Mir. Blank, of your place, that the present incumbent shall be retained ;
 The Texan looked faint, "What has that sky pilot got to do about t?" he asked.
 The Secretary was shocked, and proceeded to tell his visitor that ''sky pilot" was an offensive and improper term to employ, and wound up with as exhaustive lecture or the importance of preachers in politics. The disgust in the Texans face grew deeper and deeper, but he said nothing, He had wilted. The spirit that forty fights had not van quished, oozed out at I!is fingers ends. When he rejoined a party of " it ing Lone Star friends in the corridor. he ooul l only tell them brokenly his tale of woe. A look of mortified astonlShruent came over their faces. And as he concluded there burst forth the widest tirade of swearing that l ever heard, although I knew old Zach Chandler and listened to the teamsters talking to the mules in the wilderness. They first i'm plored the various powers of the air to ostracize them from society, then they called upon the several powers of the earth to aflict Mir. Wana- maker, and they concluded after many other ceremonies in condens. ing the various portions of their bodies. Having thus performed their rites, they departed to a saloon.

freight to make us rich, and we
feel hurt if any croaking navigator
NEEDLES SO far as to say they never
will make the landing. The man
with the muck rake in the way of
"Pilgrim's Progress" was always
looking down stirring and thinking
of his black mud. He could never
look up ahead far enough TO see the
golden and pearly gates of the beau
tiful heaven beyond awaiting those
who might have it if they would.
"Try not the pass, the old man said"
The old man was a crOaker and EX-
celsiOr was hope, going up in the
world with purpose anda determi-
nation to do something if God
would let him live. 1t is better to
die trying to do something worthy of
doing than to live tOa croaking old
age with nothing beyond self'pres-
ervation accomplished, and that
preservation to the world not worth
the preserving.
If crOakers had been listened to
there would have been no heroes. in
this world of ours where men must
lead, if they would be men, and not
wait to be pushed. If croakers had
been needed there certainly would be
no iron horses rushing on steel
rails across continents, over rivers,
and through mountains; no electric
wires annihiating time and space in
bringing foreign thoughts home to us
by cable flashes. The great things
have been and must be done against
the advice of croakers. The croaking
man is small thing, and such little
space as there is in him is filed with
meanness. Give us every time hope
full companions. They make no mis-
takes in hoping, for they make us
happier while they are making us
hope. The croakers can only make
their fellows miserable, and in justice
to others they ought not to live.

DooToRING IN THE DARK,

No sensible surgeon will attempt
the performance of an operation in
Volying human life in a room secud-
ed from the proper amount of light.
A practitioner will not attempt the
diagnosis Of complicated disease
unless he can see the sufferer and
make an examination upon which
to base his opinion relative to the
course of treatment necessary to bring
about II complete restoration of
health.
Notwithstanding the improperly
of such action there seems TO be a
great deal of doctoring done in the
dark.
BY this it is not intended that a
literal meaning be inferred, but that
a great many mistakes are. commit
ted because of the darkness which is
the result of ignorance. 1t needs no
illustrations to demonstrate that gross
ignorance has caused many fatal mis-
takes to be made in the treatment of
diseases by those who profess to be
learned in the art of healing.
In many diseases several organs
are more or less implicated and what
seems primary ailment may be one
quite remote. For instance, a severe
headache may have its origin in a
disturbed stomach. On the other
hand, sickness at the stomach may
be caused by severe blow on the
head. The seat of typhoid fever is in
the upper part of the bowels, but
most of its worst symptoms are often
in the brain.
Symptoms of disease as well as di-
seases themselves are oftentimes fol-
lowers or concomitants of some UNI
suspected organic disease and this is
peculiarly true of lung, liver, brain
and heart diseases in general, for it
is now known that they are the re-
suit of kidney disease, which shows
its presence in some such indirect
manner.
Several years ago a gentleman be-
came convinced of the truth of this
and through his efforts the world has
been warned of kidney disease and
as a result of continued effort spe-
cific known as Warmers Safe Cure
was discovered, the general use of
which has shown it ito be of inesti-
mable benefit in all cases where kid.
ney treatment is desirable or necessa.
ry.
Whe.. consumption is threatened
see to it that the condition of the kid
neys is Immediately inquired into
and if they are found diseased, cure
them by an immediate use of War
ner's Safe Cure and the symptoms of
lung decay will rapidly disappear.
There are too many instances al
ready recorded of the terrible results
produced by lack of knowledge con-
corning the cause of disease, and hui
man life is of too much importance
to be foolishly sacrificed to bigotry or
ignorance.

Thoughts Worth Treasuring.

Nothing so smooths and sweetenS
life as prayer.-GOld Dust.
Do you wish to be great? Then
begin by being little.-St. Augustine.
Do the truth you know, and you
shall learn the truth you need to
know.-Anon.
Dare nobly, will strongly, never
falter in the path of duty.-Prof.
Wilson.
Learn as if you were to live for
ever. Live as if you were to die TO-
morrow.-Ansulus de insults.
When alone think of your own
faults; when in company, forget the
faults of others.-Chinese.
The value of everything in life de-
ponds on its power to lead US to God
by the shortest road. -Faber.
Much of what we call evil, is good
in disguise; we should not, then,
rashly quarrel with universities we do
not understand, nor overlook the
mercies often bound up in them.-T.
Brown.
Duty is duty, conscience is con-
science, right is right, and wrong is
wrong, whatever type they may be
printed in. Large" or "small" are
not words for the vocabulary of con-
science.-Bishop Huntington.
Whenever we feel anything very
tender in human love, we should feel
as if the Father were stretching out
His arms to us through it, and saying,
That is little like the way I love
thee. But only ittle.'-Anon.

The Crackers.

Times, Salt Lake City, Utah.
The dictionary man says "the
croaker is one who croaks, murmurs,
or complains unreasonably; one who
habitually forebodes evil" And then
the dictionary man-perhaps fearing
his work is not we'll done-says "this
is rare" The croaking men ought
to be rare; but they are not; the
woods are full Of them. They are
hampers on spiritual fire and wet
blankets thrown on social progress.
Some crOaking men appear to be
cranks enough to think they are USE
full as cautionary danger signals, and
they hoist themselves literally. They
believe they give warnings of evils
to come, and that in way they are
public benefactors. They are not.
They come nearer being public nui-
sances. They make all people tired;
and make the hopeful sick.
Listen to the weather croaker. He
knows the very weather you do not
want is bound to come. He can scent
a dead-sure failure Of the next crop.
His barometer is always unsettled
and his thermometer is always to
high or two low for anybody's COM
fort.
The management of any national,
state, or territorial government does
not at all suit the dismal croaker.
He sees favoritism in running APP
pointments, finds evil in the best of
intentions, and drops on rottenness
everywhere, in high places and low;
accuses judges of dishonesty; and be-
lieves tried friends are treacherous.
The croaker for evil does much
evil. To him there is no way of re-
pairing the streets. All sorts of pave.
ments suggested are condemned by
him before they are tried. All meth
DDS of raising money for public i'm
provements are in his mind certain
to prove failure. He discourages
every being and every enterprise. If
an enterprising man advertises his
business and makes money fast, the
Croaker predicts ultimate failure. In
society he is always intimating that
somebody will turn out badly. Every
effort devised for the benefit of char
.ity is put down as miserable failure
by the croaker. There is no charity
in him.
Like loathsome and uncanny thing
the croaker undoubtedly has a right
to live; but it would be better for the
worlds hopeful beings if he could
live in hole. Visionary Colonel
Sellers, seeing millions in everything,
is prince of a beautiful realm beside
the blasting croaker. Sellers lifted
the world up with him, even. when
it pitied him. Micawber was always
sure something good would turn up
for him. Improvident, extravagant,
foolish, he had glorious, hopeful
nature that could not be crushed by
any number of sheriffS, weeping
wives, or twins. How much better
were they than the croakers who
predict disaster and evil at every
step! There are times when we
know our ticket in chances will win,
and we wish to go on building our
castles. Suppose they are never
builded, or finished, or lived in?
They have been dear to us, and moth
ing can rob us of the pleasure we
have had in rearing and furnishing
them, There are times when we
know our ships are coming home
from the sea laden with precious

Learning Chess.
VIM. Steinitz, in the Epoch.

Vim. Steinitz,in the Epoch.
In regard to the question so often
asked me as to what kind of intellect
is required to make good chess
player, l should not commit myself
as an expert, for l do not profess to
have made any special study of the
question. This much / can say, how
ever, that chess is by no means as
difficult game to master as many
persons suppose.
Nor does it require an exceptional
ly good memory to become a good
chess player. Chess playing, in one
respect at least, is like piano playing.
1t requires constant and regular prac-
tice to gain proficiency. Thousands
of people take up chess-playing as
they do the piano, the violin or short
hand, and never become proficient.
Chess should be taken up in regu-
lar manner, and eXpertness in play
ing the game be gained by pursuing
reasonable methods. One point every
amateur player should remember,
that is, not to make rule of playing
with a weaker player than himself.
Beginners are in the habit of ask
ing "odds" of their opponents in the
hope of coming out successful. This
practice is great mistake. 1t tends
to keep them weak players. 1t will
be seen at once that such course
ministers not to mans strength, but
to his weakness; he is not put upon
his meetle, he has no chance to be-
come self.reliant. Better by far
would it be for the young player to
be defeated in all his contests than to
coddle his feeling of inferiOrity by
taking "odds." Only by trusting in
himself, and playing with all the
pieces on the board, and combining
regular study with practice, can he
ever become first-class player.
Ifa man will give his attention to
chess an hour a day he ought to be a
fairly good player in two years. Ifhe
plays by fits and starts he will soon
forget what he has learned, and be-
come impatient and lose all interest
in the game. recommend amateurs
to take up printed chess problems
and compare them with solutions; it
is not necessary, as some suppose, to
solve them. This process will
strengthen their faculty Of precision.
BY practicing the variations on the
boards an ordinary amateur will be-
come an expert solver in about six
months. He will become so familiar
with the different ideas that are
worked out in the problems that af-
ter a time he will hit at the "key
move" with more or less rapidity.
A first-class chess player gains his
proficiency by developing the natural,
innate faculty he has for the game.
But the ability to understand chess,
and to be able to play it reasonably
well, is much more common than
people suppose, and the game ought
to become even more popular than it
is.

ENTERING IN.

The church was dim and silent
With the hush before the prayer;
Only thesolemn trembling
OF the organ stirred the air,
W thout the sweet pale sunshine;
Within. the holy calm,
Where priest and people waited
For the swelling of the psalm.
Slowly the door swung open,
And little baby girl,
Brown eyed, with brown hair falling
In many wavy curl,
With soft cheeks flushing holly,
Sly glances downward thrown,
And small hands clasped before her,
Stood ia the aisle alone.
Stood half abashed, half frightened,
Unknowing where to go,
While like wind rocked flower
Her form swayed to and fro;
And the changing color tiuttered
In the little troubled face,
AS from side to side she wavered
With mute, imploring grace.
It was but for a moment:
What wonder that we smi led,
But such strange, sweet picture
From holy thoughts beguiled?
Up then rose some one softly,
And many an eye grew dim,
As through the tender silence
He bore the child with him.
And l, | wondered, losing
The sermon and the prayer,
II when some time | enter
The many mansions fair,
And stand abashed and dropping
In the portals golden glow,
Our God will send an angel
To show me where to go!

No MORE pitiable evidence of the
length to which a so-called independ-
ent journal can go in manifesting it's
party bias has been afforded this year
than is shown in the following from
the Boston Herald, so-called indie
pendent newspaper published in the
big bean city:
"Mr. Theodore Roosevelt is illus
scientious politics in manner that

entail quarters to he no better than a

the aid he Is receiving from republic

The Herald processes to believe that
Roosevelt is in danger of having his
career as a conscientious politician
cut short by II bEcans in influential

stantial aid and encouragement from
these same republicans. The Herald

THE June review of trade presents
some very peculiar situations. The
stock market has been sinking while
there are the most encouraging signs
of improvement in the great indus
tries. The prices of all commodities
are within about one and One-half per
cent. of the lowest average ever
reached and yet the volume of bust
ness is maintained and shows a de-
cided tendency to improve. These in
dications point to an era of low prices
without that stagnation i'm industrial
quarters usually incident to low quo
tations for goods. Cotton and wool
are slightly advanced and the prices
of stocks are down. These, with
slight advance i'm the wheat market,
are the principal changes. The trust

the sudden rise has not been main
tanned. The railroad situation Is not
