If we are money makers, it is to
the exclusion Of something else; if we
have gentleness and refinement,
those qualities unfit us for becoming
money makers. The late Daniel

he was poor or if he had inherited a
fortune. why do you not ask me

Dougherty, who, as every one knows,
was very keen observer Of human
nature. "He is poor, or, if he is not,
his money was inherited" insisted
Mr.. Dougherty, and when / pressed
him for a reason for his assertion he
said. HE is too refined, too cul-

fortune or even a competency beyond
mere living" which was a perfect

Perpetual Motion Reward.

/ am often asked the question,
How much money do the different
governments Of the world offer for
the discovery Of perpetual motionl
To all such invariably give this an
swer: There is no patent law relative
to perpetual motion machines. Nei-
ther is there fixed sum of money Of
fered by any government for the in
vention Of such an unheard Of con
trivance. Asearly as 1775-11s years
ago-the French Academy of Sciences
refused to even consider the claims
of the SO called perpetual motion in
ventors. A valuable reference work
before me in making mention of
those who are experimenting in that
direction says; "They have an idea
that some immense government re-
ward has for years been laid aside
for the successful inventor. Unhap-

The Art of Garniahing.

The scientific branch of cookery
comprises the devising of dishes and
sauces. The artistic branch consti-
tutes the art of garnishing, and this
plays most important part in the
outcome of the kitchen, as by means
of it dishes please the eye before they
please the palate. First impressions
go great way, and when one sense
is captivated by an agreeable and in.
viting appearance the dish must be
bad indeed which fails to stand the
more searching ordeal of taste. Be
sides, people who suffer from jaded
appetites havea better chance of eat
ing their dinner when the dishes
which are put before them are pleas
ant to the sight.
Art, however, is not thing to be
taught. You may show a man how
to mix colors, but you cannot teach
him how to use them. | will only
explain that what in cookery is
meant by garnishing is not the ira
ditional parsley of the cook. The
one and great thing to avoid asmuch
as possible is the using for purposes
of garnishing things which are not
eatable. Philadelphia Press.

Reforming . Man.

/ believe that each one of us is con
nected with divinity by spark OF
light within. In some it is mere
speck of light; in othersit is a steady
fame; in others a burning fire, and
the physical nature is a mere CRATE
which contains this fire. Perhaps the
man within whom the spark is very
small and feeble may conceive a mad
infatuation for some woman who be.
lieves she can reform him through
this love. But if he is merely infatu-
ated with a woman in whom the di-
vine principle is feeble his reforma.
ton is liable to be on an unstable
foundation.
The man who has felt the divine
within the woman appealing to his
better nature, who has felt the holy
spark within his soul famed into a
larger fame by her influence, who
has felt her spiritual influence above
her physical charms, that man may
be reformed and stay reformed al
though his past may have been worse
than that of the prodigal son. And
yet l think that the spiritual nature
which enabled him to respond to this
woman's love could have saved him
by its own upreaching force per-
haps. The woman was merely a
mouthpiece for the divine to call to
the divinity within him and enable
it to gain the ascendency. = Ella

THE financial crisis in the United
States at time when the crops are
good and the farmers prosperous, and
when speculation has not gone to ex,
tremes, can only be explained as the
mischief of politicians, The loose ends
at which the silver question has been
left and the sudden swerve from a
protective to a free trade policy will
account for much of the disturbance.
There is merit in the suggestion made
by one Of the reviews that tariff legisla-
ton ought to be laid out for a definite
term Of years. SO that manufacturers
and business men may be able to fore
tell in some measure what the future
has in store for them and lay their
plans accordingly. The uncertainty
about sudden changes in the CONNER
clal situation and the facility with which
those changes are brought about by the
quadrennial elections are as productive
OF panlcs as violent alterations in the
weather are OF colds.

ONE of the early undertakings Of the
Hawaiian Government should be that
of putting the available public land into
the hands of small farmers Great
lease holdings, while not altogether a
bane, are far less useful to the progress
of these Islands than ten and ifty-acre
homesteads. A grand seigneur counts
for but one and does little to build up
"A country; but ten hundred small
farmers stand for a population of five
or six thousand and supply respon-

that the estoppel Of the lease system,
supplemented by a liberal sale of farm

multitude of thrifty whites from the
Western States, besides giving the
natives a chance to do something for
themselves.

tropical islands is the OLA The ola is

often reaches 1870 degrees, the ola, by
means Of the evaporation which its
material assists, cools its contents until
the water is as palatable as that of a
