The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists. A
regular stage line has been establish
ed from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the At
lantic & Pacific Railroad, making the
trip from Flagstaff to the most inpos-
ing part of the Canon in less than II
hours The stage fare for the round
trip is only $1,000, and meals and
comfortable lodgings are provided
throughout the trip at a reasonable
price. The view of the Grand Canon
afforded at the terminus of the stage
route is the most stupendous panora-
ma known in nature Thera is also a
trial at this point leading down the
Canon wall, more than 5000 feet YER
tically to the river below. The descent
of the trail is a grander experience
than climbing the Alps, for in the bot
tom of this terrific and sublime chasm
are hundreds of mountains greater
than any of the Alpine range.

"A SUCCESSFUL MAN"
What Constitutes a Successful Man-SoHie
Interesting Examples.

"There goes n successful man"
When that phrase is heard 1t probably
means one who has attained unusual
wealth. 1t is understood that our En-
glish cousins show more curiosity to
see some of Americas men who are
millionaires fifty or hundred times
over than anything else we can show
them. Yet success is but relative
term. Henry Wilson, for nearly a
double score of years prominent in
Massachusetts politics and in both
houses of Congress, was so poor that
when elected Vice President on the
ticket with General Grant his friend
Charles Sumner had TO lend him 500
to pay his expenses to and in Wash
ington for the Inauguration. But MIR.
Wilson certainly was a successful man.
Longfellow, with his bust in Westmin-
ster Abbey and his songs in the hearts
of the. civilized world. was grandly
successful, though. perhaps, Commo-
dore Vanderbilt, with his accumulated
millions, wouldn't have thought him
so. General Grant, dying relatively
poor, and General Sheridan. leaving
only some life insurance and pros
pectiv- pension, would scarcely be set
down as unsuccessful menl
The phrase is indeed relative. Two
substantial farmers were once on
train which stopped at Concord, Mass.
One said to the other, isn't this where
that feller Emerson lives?" yes"
was the answer "and I'm told that i'm
spite of his peeuliarities he's man of
considerable property" This was his
idea of success for Ralph Waldo Emer-
son.
There is a splendid success in the
ownership and management of Il great
daily newspaper, yet not the sort of
success attained by Phillips Brooks
There IS success in the control of a
great banking house, but Agassiz was
also successful and he used to say he
"hadn't time to make money"
There is success in standard life in
surance in many ways-success to the
officials whose honorable record aud
wise N anaeement have put them at
the heads of these magnificent institute
tions snd success for every policy
holder therein. II the policy holder
dies early he may leave fortune to
his dependents; If he lives long he
may enjoy the fruits of his forethought.
All the while he is aiding others. and
others are aiding him. and that comes
pretty ne.r being brotherly love. COM
mon sense and worldly success rolled
together.

Life Close to the Bone.

Oh. that other half of the world! Ii
YOU have never experienced it, how
can YOU tell how it lives? There is
one incident told by a pale-faced tene-
ment-house resident. She has seen
prosperous days, but now has, or had,
only sick husband and four little
children.
"One needs so many thingsm she
sighed plaintively. "One day last
week ! was out of coal and / sent for a
bushel, but l only had s cents. The
coal was 9. The coal man said he
would wait until we could pay the
rest Then my husband wanted a
sour drink. tie had burning fever,
poor fellow. and wanted a lemon so
baa"-she stopped her flying needle
just long enough to wipe away tear;
there were other mouths to be fed
@but | didn't have the two cents to
buy the lemon-and- and-I couldn't
Get it, Then she broke entirely down
and sobbed aloud, with her apron over
her face. "Oh. it seems as if | wouldn't
have felt half so bad when | saw his
dear, dead face in the coffin yesterday
if | hadn't thought how he wanted
that drink and | could not get it! l
wake up in the night and think of it
until it seems as if it will drive me
wild!n
Then she choked back the sobs and
hurried on with her work. The wo-
mans earnings by making pants at
So cents per dozen grew smaller with
every moment taken for tears.
But can you imagine it? a shortage
of cents to buy necessaries of life!
The lack of two cents to get drink to
cool the fevered thirst of a loved one
who is dying, making life a long agony
of regret. Did you ever realize before
the value of postage stamp?- st.

Old Kentucky Homes

Rather to the country than to the
towns in Kentucky must one look for
the local history of the home life.
There first was implanted under Eng
lish and Virginia influences the an
tique style of country-seat; there
flourished for time those gracious
manners that were the high-born en-
dowment of the olden school; there in
piquant contrast were developed side
BY side the democratic and aristocratic
spirits, working severally toward
equality and caste; there was estab-
lished the State reputation for ELUSIVE
private hospitalities; and there still
are peculiarly cherished the fading
traditions of more festive boards and
kindlier hearthstones. If the feeling
of the whole people could be inter
preted by a single saying. it would
perhaps be this: that whether in town
or country-and if in the country, not
remotely here or there, but in we'll
nigh unbroken succession from estate
to estate-they have attained a notable
stage in the civilization of the home.
This is the common conviction. this
the idol of the tribe. The idol itself
may rest on the fact of provincial iso-
lation, which is the fortress of self
love and neighborly devotion; but it
suf1ices for the present purpose to say
that it is an idol still, worshiped for
the divinity it is thought to enshrine.
Hence YOU may assail the kentuckian
on many grounds, and he will hold his
peace You may tell MIN that he has
no great cities, that he does not run
with the currents of national progress;
but never tell him that the home life
of his fellows and himself is not as
good as the best in the land. Domes-
ITCHY is the State porcupine, present
ing an angry quill to every point of
attack. To write of homes in Ken
tuckv, therefore, and particularly OF
rural homes, is to enter the very cita-
del of the popular affections. James
