seems 10 be the nature Of some people,
and consequently they grow old be-
fore their time, and the heart is scared
and hard and nothing truly but a
'mournful blank remains"
Why not keep the heart young3
Why not have the earth a heaven,
and keep childhood's faith and happi-
ness in our hearts, even though the
bodies will grow old and witheredl
1t is fact worth recorl that when
you meet genial, happy old person
you find they have youthful heart
heart Of love and good will; heart
that sympathizes and enteIs into the
pleasures and every day enjoyments
Of the young and are willing to make
any sacrifices that the young people
may enjoy life; such old people al
ways have pleasant faces, placid ex-
pressions, and a light in the eye that
reflects the emotions of the heart.
One is involuntarily drawn 10 such
people. But there is another class of
old people talas, too numerous), whose
faces are as sour and Grabbed as posi-
BILE; they never see any good in any
one; the young never do right, every
thing has degenerated since their
young days, and the whole world
moves different; is il any wonder that
the hearts Of such people are as with
cred and bitter as their faces indicated
The face is the true index of the
heart, a mirror in which its emotions
are truly pictured; the face may grow
old, and time may leave its impress in
heavy lines and wrinkles, but from
beneath them all there beams light
that is a reflection from heart kept
young and fresh, while the body has
grown old beneath the weight of
years-a heart that has cherished none
but love, peace and contentment, and
has gathered only the sunshine of Life,
keeping ''the faint image of Eden,
which was stamped upon it in child
hood, even down unto old age.-At-
lanta Constitution.

The Worlds Greatest Lumber Region.


A lumber pile made of boards, each
100 feet long and feet in width,
would be an unprecedented sight in
the east, but gentleman recently re-
turned from q visit to the coast Of the
North Pacific ocean says that piles of
timber such as that are common at
the mills on Puget sound. Boards
100 feet long and 9 feet wide, with
out a knot in them" he says, ''are
common cuts from the gigantic fir
trees Of the Puget sound forests.
These trees grow to the enormous
height Of $50 feet and the forests are
so vast that although the saw mills
have been ripping 500, 900, 600 feet of
lumber out OF them every year for ten
years, the spaces made by these tre-
mendous inroads seem no more than
garden patches. Puget sound has
], 800 miles of shore line, and all along
this line and extending thence ON both
sides miles and miles further than the
eve can see, is one vast and almost un-
broken forest of these enormous trees.
There is nothing like il anywhere on
the Pacific coast An official estimate
places the amount of standing timber
In that area at 10000, 900, 900 feet or
a thousand years supply, even at the
enormous rate the timber is now being
felled and sawed. The timber belt
covers 80, 900, 900 acres Of Washington
Territory, an area equal to the states
of Vermont, Massachusetts,, Connect
cut and New Hampshire. The markets
for the Puget sound lumber are en-
tirely foreign, being South America
Australia, Central America and the
Pacific ocean slands."-Philadelphia

The Cross-Town Street-Cars,

PATRI0TIo DUTY.

Only three days remain in which to
prepare for the celebration of Thursday.
The occasion will be one of double inter-
est. The cornerstone laying of the SOL
diers' monument should itself excite
universal interest. The monument will
be the finest of its kind in the United
States. and beyond comparison the most
1t will be an honor to the State and its
capital. The formal Inauguration of SO
noble an enterprise should be recognized
in such a way as to show that the people
appreciate its significance, and are In
sympathy with it's motive. For once let
us forget the dull demands of trade and
dicker and yield, for a little while, to
the loftier motives inspired by a great
work of art destined to become historic
in the annals of the State, and foremost
grand events which it commentaries
the hardships, the dangers, the sacri-
fees, the marches, %bivouacs, battles and
victories. Let us people the streets
once more with the armed thousands who
enlivened them nearly thirty years ago,
as they marched to the front to do battle
for the State and Nation. Let us
remember how much the State owes in
honor of the dead as well as the living
heroes of that period, and then let us
not fail to make some outward express
ion of the sentiment these reflections
inspire. The old soldiers will be here in
great numbers, and they should not be
permitted to have cause to say, on ac-
count of their cold welcome, that repub-
lies are ungrateful.
Besides the old soldiers and a great
crowd of other visitors, the President of
the United States will be here. That
alone will be sufficient reason for a pOpu-
lar demonstration of welcome. The peo-
pie of New England have just shown
what a grand and cordial reception a
patriotic people can give their Presi-
dent. For the President of the United
States is the President of all the people,
and, as the head of the government,
should be received with demonstrations
of honor and respect by all. An Amer
lean who cannot join heartily in doing
honor to the President of the United
States, whether agreeing with him in
politics or not, is not fit to be an Amer
lean. Such partisanship is worse than
disgusting, it is unpatriOtic, and pos
sesses the elements of disloyalty. Show
us a man who refuses to honor the
head of the government, as such, and
we will show you a man who does not
appreciate and is not fit to enjoy the
benefits of free government.
The President comes here in his Off
cial capacity on a public occasion of
great interest. He comes to show his
regard for the old soldiers and his SYM
patty for the cause for which he and
they fought. He comes also as an hon
ored citizen of Indiana and of Indian
apolis, and, therefore, with multiplied
claims upon the people. Let them prove
by their acts that they honor not only
the office, but the man; that they sym
pathize with the occasion which brings
him here, and are proud to have fur
nished the Nation its chief executive.
1t is the patriotic duty of all to join in
doing honor to the old soldiers and the
President.

campaign the free-trade organs printed
columns of figures and mountains of lies
to prove that British manufacturers
were more prosperous than those of the
United States, and that British work
men received as good, or better, wages
than American. In every possible form
of assertion and argument they claimed
that the American people, capitalists as
well as labOrers, wage-payers as well as
-wage-earners, were injured, crippled
and impoverished by the tariff.
Both classes, all classes, and the
country at large, they claimed,
would be immensely benefited by
a repeal of the tariff. Against this
clamor the friends of protection op-
posed then, as they do now, the solid
facts of experience and the overwhelm-
ing record of American prosperity
under protection-a prosperity that has
embraced all classes and all interests,
and in which capital and labor have
been equal sharers.
The idea that the country will be
impoverished by the influx OF foreign
capital is worthy of the political school
which teaches that it would be enriched
by buying abroad The amount of
foreign capital invested or ever likely to
be invested here is not a drop in a barrel
compared to that of u Owl people. and
the shrewd American people will not be
alarmed at the prospect of impoverish-
ment by increasing the active capital of
the country. The only significance it
has is the eagerness of foreign capitalto
seek investment in a country where
labor gets the highest wages and CAPT.
tai the largest returns.
If there could be any higher tribute
to the efficacy of protection than that
furnished by the influx of foreign cap
ital it is found in the influx of foreign
labor. That is no new thing like the
other. The influx of foreign working
men has been going on fortwenty years.
They discovered the benefits of the
American system at al early period, and
each succeeding year new thousands of
them have sought our shores to avail
themselves of it's benefits. And they
have not been disappointed. Thousands
of those who came here poor are now
rich or well-tO-dO. Thousands who came
here as wage-workers are now wage
payers. Employees have become en-
plOyers and workingmen have become
capitalists. All have shared in the gen.
eral prosperity, and all can testify to
the benefits of protection.
