What Will the New Year Bring ?

with hope millions stand on
the closing day of the year with
faces toward the FUTURE writes
Mrs. Hamilton Mott in the Ladies
Home journal. what will the
new year bring me?' each one asks
himself. No one knows. And
how well ii is that we do not. 1t
requires sober thought to realize
that what we are and what we do
+ along the lines of u wise crea.
ton. 1t is often very easy for us
to feel that we might change
things for the better if the power
and the opportunity We're but ours.
But the most astute cleverness of
man is a poor affair when compar-
ed with the simplest wisdom of
God. And one thing that can
make this new year before us hap
pier is to have that one feeling.
that IL faith always with Us:
That whatever is, is right aud
for the best. Frequently we can
not comprehend at the time why
this should be so, why that should
happen, and why some particular
trial should come to us while some
greal JOY comes at the same time
to another; why we should have
SO little and others so much. But
nothing ever comes into our lives
except what is for our good. And
someday we shall clearly under
stand all"

The Adulteration of Food Products.

The surprising extent to which
our commonest foods and drinks
are adulterated and counterfeited,
and the crying necessity for both
state and acknowledgements which
will control and check the evil,
have been well proved by the re-
suits of the senatorial inyestiga-
ton which was made in Chicago
last spring. Before the Senate
committee, appointed just prior to
the adjournment of Congress and
headed by Senator Mason, several
prominent chemists. food manu-
facturers. and others gave testi-
mony. DIR. Wiley, who has been
chief chemist of the Agricultural
Department at Washington for
many years, asserted that nearly
every kind of food upon the mar
ket is, to a greater or a less extent,
adulterated, misbranded, or other
wise rendered harmful or fraudu-
lent. More Vermont Maple sugar
is made every year in Davenport,
Iowa, from cheap yellow sugar
favored with vegetable extracts
than car be produced from all the
maple trees in the whole state of
Vermont! Currant jelly is manu-
featured from the cores and par
ings of apples utilized after they
have evaporated; glucose, sugar, a
vegetable acid, and some col Jring
and havoring matter complete the
delicacy! Nearly all of the "pure
olive OIL imported to this country
is cotton seed oil made in the
Southern states and sent abroad
and there refined and returned to
us as the pure product of the Med
iterranean olive!-From 1.-THE
Vital Question of Pure Food" by

Ex-speaker Reed OH the Filipinos.
A special to the New York Tribune
from Portland, Maine, says:
In railroad car last night Thomas
B. Reed took part in discussion
with two Portland men and plainly
expressed his sentiments in regard to
the war in the Philippines. One Of
the friends with him is a radical ex-
pansionist,a and remarked that to with
draw our troops from the Philip ines
now would humiiate the nation be-
fore the world. Mr.. Reed replied:
"You don't think those Fihpinos
would chase our soldiers seven thous-
and miles if they start for home, do
your"
The Portland man replied that it
was not fear of the natives but hu-
initiation in the sight of other nations
ton WAS referred to, whereupon Reed
said:
Il have always observed that with
individuals, that the fear OF humilia
ton is exactly i'll proportion as they
deserve 1t, and l believe that the
same principle holds good with a ma
ton as with party. Some people
seem to be afraid that these Filipinos
will put their tongues in their checks
at ue. They have done that already.
They have watched our failures as
others have. don't know how long
it will be before the American people
will get tired Of sending s50,000,O00 a
year trying to conquer these people,
but it does not seem to me that it will
be very long. And l can conceive
that freedom is as dear to the Flip
mos as it is to u.s."
