SELF CONQUESTS.


The youthful Alexander, with Asia
and the world suppliaht at his feet, sat
idly down and wept for other realms to
waste, and yet, in few brief years he
fell an easy victim to the only enemy
he had never feared and never COM
batted. The conqueror of the world
proved the conquered of himself
'Tis an oft-repeated story: The shores
of time are lined with human wrecks,
the derelicts of self. Ships which in
their early voyaging sailed under smil-
ing and propitiOus skies and over calm
! seas, whose sails the gentle zephyrs of
hope and promise filled. But ah! the
time came when the moral mists began
to gather, a little cloud at first, but
gathering way, soon the fierce storm,
engendered of self-indulgent sins, broke
in all it's fury, and left them the shat
tered hulks we now behold.
No man ever attained, or ever will
attain, to his highest state of useful
ness and power in this world unless he
has to a greater or less degree accom-
plished the conquest of self. The great
man will be more truly great, the wise
man more truly wise, the good man
more truly good, when he has placed
himself under subjection, and sat an
humble pupil at the feet of humility. 1t
is on the stepping stones of our dead
selves that we may hope to mount to
higher things.
The conquest of self should be begun
early in life, for it is not conquest
which the historian can ever record in
the three words "I came, l saw, [ con-
quered' 1t is the battle, not of day,
but of lifetime. 1t is a conflict, not
with the enemy in the open field, but
with the insidious foe within the very
citadel of our hearts. Let the young
man therefore be early placed on his
guard. Let him be taught that the first
great battle which he should fight and
win is that against self. With self a
willing subject, he may then press on,
and every step forward will be step
upward. The conquest of self lays the
first enduring corner stone to that
temple of character which always
proves a safe retreat in the days of
youth, and quiet sanctuary to which
we may retire in our declining years.
Then up, men, and at it. Let it never
be said of any of us, that we were able
to conquer everything but self. The
battle may be severe, and the cross
heavy, but remember, 'no cross, no

UNCLE SAM AND COUSIN CUBA.

Hush, children, don't bother your
Uncle Sam. Don't you know that he's
tarnation busy, and ahustling to beat
hornets in getting things fixed up in
apple-pie order again. For St. Patrick's
day, and the amazing way them boy S
cuffed one another has played tag with

is broken-hearted. for she can't dance
the march of triumph any longer. And
old Abe sits up in yonder craggy peak
and his feathers afalling out, for Jim's
been and gone and made mess of it.
So don't bother your Uncle Sam
That satirical little parody illustrates
very vividly to you, my comrades, the
prevailing sentiment which stands pre-
eminent in the minds of the intellectual
American race at this period; people
that represent the most enlightened
and powerful nation under the blue
canopy of heaven. Still with all their
patriotism, with all their honor, with
all their virtue they apparently failed
in this one supreme moment of antici-
patton to dispense with pleasure that
is derOgatory to nations honor, and
recognize instead, cause identical to
that from which this grand republic
achieved her most enviable reputation
her independence.
Imagine if you can the beautiful
little Isle of Cuba. Diminutive in area,
but marvel OF richness in produce.
Some no miles in length and varying
from 30 to 100 in width, envied for her
iron and copper mines. A creator of
jealousy in behalf of her sugar and to,
bacco plantations. With her gigantic
forests that compare favorably with
those of renown in the tropical anti
podes thriving in soil that absolutely
defies competition. In this picture we
see Cuba that was. Now blood soaked
and begrimmed with the incessant fires
of death and destruction; fighting that
glorious battle for her independence.
Sacrificing the lives of her few and
humble people, man and woman alike;
giving up their life blood for their
homes, honor and country. Dying
martyrs for cause which to them is
as sacred as the preservation of the
soul in the breast of humanity. And
why? Because the despotism arising
from despicable Spanish misrule has
cankered deep in the Cuban heart a
longing to be the sons and daughters of
freedom.
And recognizing the possibilities of
eventually maintaining republican
form of government and legally sup

THE RICH WOMAN THIEF.

When rich woman steals handsome
and valuable objects from dry goods
store, she is kleptomaniac and is set
free. When poor woman does the
same, she is thief and is punished by
the law. Since the release of Mrs.
Castle, in London, thefts in dry goods
stores by rich ladies have become
alarmingly prevalent.
Henry Labouchere, in his London
Truth, suggests a practical as we'll as
practicable way to deal with the klep-
tomaniac whose arrest would scandal
ize society. 1t is that resorted to by a
keeper of a shop In London who caught
lady belonging to one of the first
families in the theft of valuable arti-
cles. With streaming eyes she begged
and pleaded to be let off, for the expo
sure would cause social volcano.
Which would she rather do, asked the
shopkeeper-be arrested and tried in
a court of law, or 60 into one of his
back rooms and take sound whip
ping? A sound whipping with a rod
seems somehow to especially please
the British sense of justice. The lady
chose the whipping. The shopkeeper's
sister, single lady quite up to the re-
quirements of the situation, disrobed
the elegant society belle and lashed
her with switch till she shrieked and
begged for mercy and swore she never
again would steal anything from that
shop. Neither has she done so.
Cannot the plan be tried in America
1t has many advantages over sending
a rich and respectable lady to the pen
