he came from a little one horse town
In al adjoining county, and the debt
of gratitude made the hotel man give
his guest the test in the house. When
the visitor first arrived, the ex comrade

companies must make some return or

just and fair that they should pay

examination of the tax and improve

NOW. TO SINEss.

The following from the New York
Mail and Express is saying the correct
thing at the right time:
The whole country, eager ard ex-
pectsnt. stands upon the edge of a
period Of unexsmpled sctivity il trade
and industry. All conditions are fav-
orable to mighty expansion of
matchmaking enterprise. The ele-
ments of prosperity abound on every
hand and in every neighborhood, snd
II needs only the touch OF genius and
energy TO arouse them to productive
achievement. The wealth of this ns-
ton, not only In money and material
resources, but in men and opportuni-
ties, is the envy Of the world. Ii is
the land of gigantic projects and high
achievements, and now, with its
domain enormously enlarged, its pres
tige subhmely exalted and its fields
for manly endesvor broadening to the
east and TO the west, the genius and
daring of the people have only 10 as
sert themselves TO make the closing
year of the century the golden period
of American prosperity and progress.
Therefore, let Us all to business,
Send the grumblers and pessimists TO
the rear, and bring the stout hearted |
elear-headed. aggressive American
optimist TO the front. he is the man
for the hour. 1t is he who. failing to /
find an opportunity, creates one and |
who, by his breezy, cheerful. irresista-
BILE manner of executing vast under
takings serves as a constant inspira-
ton to the young manhood of today.
To him the country looks for the i'm
petus which shall set in motion the
great revival OF American prosperity

Our picture, taken from Harper
Weekly, will give you fair idea of
how our soldiers are fed in the Philip
pines. On a wharf at Cavite are the
large store houses, and nearby at
anchor the huge transports lay ready
to discharge or take on cargo. You
can see the large group of quarter
masters of the different regiments all
patiently waiting to receive the IA
tons. When this picture was taken
the number of rations to be distributed
was something like 135, 900 These
rations are carried away by the officers
TO the different stations, and there pre-
pared and distributed.
