THE MANIA OF HAsTEFuLNEss.

its Victims Are Hurried Unceasingly Un til
They Collapse To Nervous Prostitution.
1t belongs to the family of germ dis
cases, this universal busy feeling Of
which every woman omplains whether
she rides in her coach or walks to save
car fare. The professional woman is
no more hurried any more than her
professional sister with nothing to
do. Indeed, because some cares and
duties are eliminated from her daily
life IN account of professional demands,
not infreeuently the woman of business
has more real leisure than the woman
who has everything expected of her,
because all her friends think she has
nothing to do. Rather, we will say,
her attack of the disease is more acute.
just as ia typhoid, the microbe of this
disease feeds upon his fellows until,
like the Kilkenny cats, nothing is left
of them. Then all at once the busy
woman has nothing to do but to lie
down in dim. quiet rooms, to be served
}y skilled hands, to be fed nourishing
food, and to be bathed and rubbed and
rocked like baby. Clubs, COOKS,
charities, teas, lectures, even chill
dren cannot hurry her. They call it
nervous prostration, but it is only that
the miersbe is exterminated by and
by she gets up again, rested and younger
by ten years in looks and feelings, but
the bacilli swarm. She gets the infec-
fion again and has it worse than be-
fore. You see there's no help for it,
= 49, - a
micrebe. Nc one has time to investi-
gate the conditions of the disease. No
quarantine can be maintained, for
every body has it, except perhaps, dis
.trfct messenger boys, walters, cash
boys ana other peers of the realm. One
woman stands on record as the most
remarkable phenomenon of her day-
the woman who is not YEARLY, slav-
.ishly, hurriedly busy. She was talk
ing with her friend in car the other
day. Her white hair was combed
smoothly down above face that must
have been strikingly handsome in its
day. Her widows bonnet and black
gown were exouisitely neat Eyes,"
she was saying. sit is rather hard work
for an old lady, still am never SO busy
as to hurry me. don't let the work
drive me / take it aisy like and it
doesn't fash nae at oil, you see" She
was professional laundress, one of
the old-fashioned ones that bring you
your things white and sweet from the
hand-cleansing process. One feels that
they have reached the pot of gold at
the foot of the rainb bow to discover n
woman not infected with the disease
But she is philosopher and wiser than
most of her kind m Y. Sun.

Lola hung her head. She remem-
bered now, how several weeks ago, in
a foolish. thoughtless moment. she had
made this false statement to Sir Reg
gle, and she skulked away into the
house to hide her confusion and bitter
annoyance.
The first piece Of petty spite in which
she INDUCED was to empty the basket
of its roses and scatter the petals to
the four winds of heaven. Then she
sat down to contemplate the unpleas-
ant knowledge that Sir Reggie was on
his way to Clifton, where. in truth,
he arrived that evening, but too late to
call at the pretty house opposite the
Suspe nsion bridge.
He did the next best, however; he
put up at the hotel close by, and then
went out for stroll.
1t might. yes, it might just be posi-
BILE that, the fates being kind. he would
meet tho fair object of his devotion.
Nor was he destined to be again dis
appointed; there she was sitting under
a tree, reading rather. for
the deepening shadows rendered the
idea of reading rather fallacious.
She started up in fright when she
saw Sir Reggie, and exclaimed:
You here-tell me, what is it? Is
there anything wrong at homer"
What should be wrong, sweet
Nora? Why should not come to SEQ
you? There is nothing wrong bat .

The speaker
was a girl on
the verge of womanhood, brunette.
tall, 1.-the and piquante looking.
AS she gave utterance to this express
sive monosyllable she set down on the
table such lovely BASKET OF roses that
the whole air of the room was at once
filed with their fragrance and their
beauty.
Near the table, embroidering feurs
de lys on white satin ground. sat an
other and fairer girl. far more regu-
larly beautiful; Saxon blonde. Nora
Treherne had none of the piquancy OF
the elder and more naughty Lola
She raised her eyes from her en-
broidcry and gazed on tbs roses with
pleasure.
"Oh, Lola, how lovely! Where did
you get them? Did one of your numer-
Gus admirers send them to you?"
Zone of yours, you meal"
''How nine?'
Look at this note fastened with a
silver cord to the handle: FOR Miss
Treherne. from Sir Reginald Breton !"
The tone was still triumphant, even
though Nora's fair cheek bleached to a
deadly pallor as she heard 1t.
Reggie Breton sending roses to
Lola!
Envy and jealousy were BY nc means
vices in which Nora habisually in
dulged, but the one human being sho
had appropriated for her own was Reg
gle Bcetcn, and she thought he loved
her.
she did not utter a sound. but tried
vain!y to ply her needle as though she
were locally unconcerned. She would
not for worlds have Lola SEQ how
troubled she was.
Meanwhile Lola had opened the note
on the exterior of which these words
were written. and was perusing it with
such delight that she saw naught Of
what was written on her sisters face.
Having drunk ia with apidity every
word the letter contained she tossed it
to Nora.

account make a worse husband than
other men. Shy men are not my pref
erence, but to be Lady Breton, with
five thousand a year, is something to
set against shy ness"
There was a pause, during which
she smelt the roses; at last she turned
round.
What! Not word Of congratula-
ton, Nora? 1t cannot be possible that
you grudge me my happiness. Think,
child. too. what good thing it will be
for you How I can take you out
what presents I can give you"
Then Nora struggled with the voice
that was barely at command, and said:
Il am glad you should be happy, Lola.

I do now. or to have any presents
from
'You nasty, odious little thing! low
proud you are. You like to give. not

Their thoughts become as truly
fixed habits as anything which
they are accustomed to do with
their hands. There are some peo-
pie whose minds drift hither and
thither with every passing wind of
circumstance; for so long time
has such been their practice that it
has become q mental habit. Others
have acquired the habit of self-con-
troll, not only in their active deeds,
but also in their silent thoughts.
By frequent practice they have at
tanned the power of concentrating
their minds upon one subject for a
time. and turning it to another
when they deem it advisable.
Again, if we could examine the
ideas which men hold, we should
perhaps be surprised to find how
many of them are due to habit
rather than logic. In childhood
man took for granted whatever he
heard expressed by those to whom
he looked up with respect. When,
ever be heard any of their ideas
criticized by others he resented it.
and chung firmly to them. These
opinions have come to be settled
habits Of mind with him. He re.
CARDS them as certainties. and looks
with suspicion upon those who dc
not share them. Yet, if challenged
to defend them, he is utterly at a
loss. They are his only by adop'
ton; he has never earned the right
to call them truly his own by the
hard mental work of investigation
This is the history of many o.
our most cherished notions, the
foundation on which thousands
stand in politics, in science, in the
problems of the day, in social OBJ
! servance, in ethics, in theology
This practice of thinking from
habit, if universal, would put ar
end to all progress. Happily, there
are always some men and women
who are, resisting this teLdency-
the leaders of public opinion, the
pioneers in tho march of intellec-
tual progress. Their efforts should
be, however, less to impress their
own views upon other minds than
to help every man to form his owr
ideas in an int lligent way.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

Mr.. Carroll D. Wright gives US
some very interesting facts. He
estimates-and in the matter of
statistics he is an expert-that
there are in this country at the
present time rather more than
twenty-five millions of persons who
are engaged in gainful occupa-
TONS"
Subtracting from our sixty-five
millions most of the wives and
daughters, all of the decrepit and
aged, and all the school children,
it will be seen that we are work.
a-day nation in its shirt sleevee.
The class of do-nothings because
they have too much money and the
other class of do-nothings because
they are born loafers do not count
for much either in number or influ-
ence. But Mr.. Wright adds that
not only is the aggregate of those
who do work on the increase, but
also the aggregate of those who are
willing to work, but can't get it.
There's the rub. That is the rea.
son for the existence of labor or
carnations. for strikes, and for the
unceasing conflict between capital
and labor.
The remedy? There is but one.
Skilled labor is nearly always in
demand. A first-class workman is
seldom out Of job. 1t is neces-
sary, therefore, for the new genera
ton to cease dawdling, to give up
being jacks of all trades, to give
themselves vehemently to some
special department, and to become
masters of that. There never was
yet time when it was not easier
to earn 81 a day because you are
worth it than to earn 81 day at
work which q million others can do
as we'll as you; and, as the New
York Herald says, the lesson is
clear and it is emphatic.

"A DEMOCRATIC TRUST.

Idaho Democrats, consisting of ex-
Governor Stevenson. IS. H. Hayes,
J. G. Straughan, J:J. Crutcher, E.
B. Tage, George Ainslie, Charles

to have lifted their enraptured gaze

that the gentlemen above named

Idaho's Democracy. The trust has
evidently been formed on the basis

his fellow for another Office, and

no clan, clique or faction, and
