rhe way to Become a capitalist.

Washington GLADDEN. in the Forum,
says Somebody must save money, and
the people who save it will be the capital
lists and they win control the organization
of industry and receive the larger share of
the profits. If the workingmen will save
their money they may be not only sharers
of profits but owners of stock and receivers
of dividends. And the workmen can save
their money if they will It is the only
way in which they can permanently and
surely improve their condition. Legisla-
tive reforms, improved industrial methods,
may make the way easier for them, but
there is no road to comfort and indepen-
denee, after all, but the plain, old path Of
steady work and sober saving. If the
working people of tLis country would save
for the next five years the money that they
spend on beer and tobacco and base ball
they could control a pretty large share of
the capital employed in the industries BY
which they get their living, and they could
turn the dividends of this capital from the
pockets of the money lenders into their
own. There is no other way of checking
the congestion of wealth and of promoting
its diffusion so expeditions, so certain and
so benefcent as this ] wish the working
people would try it.

How to Stop Runaway Horse.

A policeman, who has distinguished him
self in stopping runaway horses, gives the
following points as to how 10 accomplish
that end with the greatest success When
you see runaway coming do not try to
cheek him by rush from the opposite
direction or the side, for you viii be i'm
mediately Knocked fat By the collision;
but, instead, prepare yourself for short
run with the horse. Measure with your
eye the distance, start for the run while he
is yet some way of, perhaps ten feet, in
the case of fair to medium runaways You
may depend upon his keeping straight
line, for really frightened horse is half
blind and would not veer for a steam en-
CINE. He win 90 straight ahead until he
smashes into something. So do not get
close to the line on which he is rushing,
and as he passes you grab the reins near
the saddle. Gather the rains firmly; then,
leaning backward as you run, give them
powerful yank You may be able to brace
yourself somewhat as you give this jerk,
half sliding on your feet. The strong jerk
on the bit tells the horse that he again has
a master, and prepares him for the final
struggle A step or two forward after the
first yank, do it again. This is the finish
ing stroke. 1t never fails when given by
a determined man. The horse is on Its
launches. Keep firm pull on the rains
till you grasp the horse by the nOstrils, and
hold him so till he is paci6ed.

lie who plants tree
Plants hope.
Rootlets up through fibres blindly grope;
Leaves unfold into horizons free,
So mans life must climb
From the clods of time
Unto heavens sublime.
Canst thou prophecy, thou little tree.
What the glory of thy boughs shall be-
He who plants tree
Plants JOY;
Plants a comfort that viii never cloy;
Every day fresh reality.
Beautiful and strong,
To whose shelter throng
Creatures blithe with song.
If thou couldst but know, thou happy tree.
ofthe bliss that shall inhabit thee.
He who plants tree
He plants peace.
Under its green curtain jargons cease.
Leaf and zephyr murmur sOOthingly;
Shadows soft with sleep
Down tired eyelids creep.
Balm of slumber deep
Never hast thon dreamed, thou blessed tree
Ofthe benetiicuon thou shait he
lie who plants a tree
lie plants youth;
Vigor wen for centuries, In sooth:
Life Of time. that hints eternity
Boughs their strength upFear
New shoots every year

Thou shalt teach the ages, sturdy tree,
Youth OF soul Is Immortality.

Men Who Move the World?
PACIFIC GROVE, July 6th.-Y esterday was
gala day for Chautauqua. DR.. Hobart
delivered the forenoon lecture on " Unseen
Forces, or, What Moves the Men Who
Move the World,?" The afternoon lecture
was by Professor Marks, who for an hour
took his audience on a trip through the
Holy Land, from Dan to Beersheba. Then
followed the Round Table" when re-
ports were read from several Chautauquan
circles in San Francisco and at number
of interior points, being followed by an
informal reception TO Bishop Vincent of
the Methodist Church and Chancellor of
the Peoples University at Chautauqus,
n. Y.
The browning event of the day was the
evening address by Dr. Vincent, who was
welcomed by one of the largest audiences
which has assembled to greet any speaker
The gentleman spoke without notes, max
ing The American Boy" the subject of
his discourse.
DR.. Vincent is an optimist of the most
pronounced order. He believes in the
American boy, but thinks he should be
encouraged to do right, to think for him
self, to be a man and not thing. Parents,
teachers and employers should each in
turn, as the American boy passes through
their respective hands, cultivate character,
that foundation of manliness; they should
encourage him to do right without fear of
the reproach of the wrong-doer, and of all
things they should not give him up too
soon. Give him chance let Christianity
be practical and not passive Let US help
one another. Let us look up and lift up.
