tried the experiment of wearing q cor

We're SO enthusiastic I was foolish
enough to try the thing for matter OF
four weeks. Then I laughed at myself

give up the attempt to reduce by artl-
cal means that superabundance OF tat

ercise, or the air of America, has ever
had any real reducing influence. BntI

Reasons why Man May Not Fly.

Prof. Hazen of the Signal Office says
there are insurmountable obstacles to per-
fecting flying machine. He states the
main obstacles thus: First-It is impossi-
BILE to use the force which the bird uses to
develop power by any contrivance which
can ever be invented that will give one tithe
of the effect that the bird gets. That is to
say, while possibly spring or other appli-
cation of force, by using up an enormous
amount of energy in very short time.
might mOmentarily initiate bird, yet the
motive power in such case would be rapidly
used up. SecOnd-It is impossible, by the
most delicate mechanism and most perfect
wings. to equal the perfection and adapt
ability of the bird in its own element.
Thrd-There is a limit of weight beyond
which it is impossible for bird to fly. 1t
is probable that the ostrich had the power
of flight in ages gone by. but when its en-
virOnment became such that it did not need
it's wings to escape from enemies, or when
it began to grow larger from any favoring
circumstances, it used its wings less and
less so that now it is entirely incapable Of
flight. It is probable that the condor.
weighing fifty pounds. and with a spread of
wings of fourteen feet, is very near the
limit of weight. We may conclude. then.
that we can never equal Bird and. hence.
that self-raising, self supporting. and
self propelling flying machine cannot possi-
bly, be built to carry man.-Indianapolis

If what Mr.. Carnegie calls the gospel of
wealth is to be preached. one should begin
with its obligations, rather than with its
beneficence There are demands upon
the rich which society has a right
to enforce and ought to insist upon.
We cannot compel them to be generous. but
we have right to require them to be just.
Selfshness is vice. but rapacity is crime.
They should be restrained from using the
vast power of wealth in the plunder OF less
fortunate men and the Generalization of
society. This plunder is often carried on
by great combinations formed to enhance
the necessaries of life, and by fraudulent
schemes set on foot by men of large wealth
for their own enrichment and the impOver-
ishment of men of smaller means,
These are business methods which prey
upon the individual. Another iniquity of
wealth is the purchase of high places of
trust and control at political elections. PO-
litical power is thus in danger of passing
into the hands of plntocracy composed of
the worst class of the rich. These are the
abuses and mischiefs of wealth. not its nee
essary results. Our rich men have not, as
a rule. been niggardly in charity or in pub,
lie spirit. We often hear of those who are
poor but honest. 1t is only just to bear in
mind that there are many who are rich but

rich men who are 1.-THE cankers of a calm
world'-men who use money only to make
more money. and would carry it all with
them when they die. if they could. 1t is
for their sins that the whole order is re-
preached.
Many American estates. hOnOrably inher-
tied or honorably acquired, are like springs
in dry land. freely flowing for the gen.
eral relief. Large fortunes are not an evil,
but society has right to demand from the
opulent that they remember that if riches
tend to ennoble, they also Oblige. If wealth
in the long run is tolerated and protected it
must be used wisely. benefcially, or at
least harmlessly. Public opinion and pub
lie law ought to set their foot on oppression.
eXtOrtion and corruption.
Such is brief resume of the opinions on
a vital question of men whose position,
character and ability entitle their opinions
to careful cOnsideration.-Min Minneapolis

A Fable With an Application.

A swallow flew down and plucked a
small piece of wool from the back of
sheep. The sheep was very indignant, and
denounced the swallow in Scathing terms.
"Why do you make such fuss?" asked
the swallow. "YOu never say anything
when the shepherd takes all the wool you
have on your back?"
''That's different thing entirely" re-
piled the sheep. 'if you knew how to take
my wool without hurting me. as the shep.
herd does, l would not object so much"
This fable is merely intended to explain
why millions can be stolen with impunity,
while the theft of pair of boots, or loaf
of bread is punished with such severity
