The Magnet In surgery.

A few days ago G. H. Fiske, the Old
Orchard hotel proprietor, got needle
into his foot and was unable to ex-
tract it, although he tried many ways
to do so. Finally, knowing the aft nifty
of steel for a magnet, he went to the
electric-light station and placed his
foot near dynamo, and out came the
needle. Portland (Me.) Press.

True Confidence.

Virgil, describing boat race. says
of the winning crew: "They are able,
because they think themselves able. "
NJ. de Lesseps, the engineer of the
Suez Canal, took for his motto at the
commencement of that great work,
"Believe that you can and you will. "
He was convinced of the need of the
work, he fairly estimated the obstacles
in the way, he studied the methods of
overcoming them and he built the
canal. This lis true confidence, in
contradistinction from vain conf
dence. Youths Companion.

common salt should be rubbed in, af-

this the articles should be slowly

Governor Roosevelt has not been in
offica many days but he has already
been in long enough to introduce sew
eral interesting innovations. one or
these is a weekly cabinet meeting or
conference between himself and the
other elective officials in the state gov
ernment, called with a view of secur-
ing uniformity i'm policy and for the
purpose Of discussing measures of ad-
ministration. The governor of New
York wishes to have symmetrical ad-
mnistration and this is certainly a
practical way to get it.
Another change wrought by the new
executive of the Empire state is to
systemati2e thoroughly his daily work
and to keen at it with religious pune
tuality. He reaches the executive
chamber promptly at 9 o'clock every
morning; answers correspondence from
. until Ii; holds conference with the
newspaper men between II and II 10;
receives visitors by card under pre-
arranged appointment until /; takes a
half-huur for luncheon: devotes an
other Drlet PERIOD 10 correspondence
resumes his conferences with the pub
lie until o'clock, receives assembly
men until 4:45; and before going home
at o'clock has another short session
with the newspaper men. After D
o'clock the governor will not discuss
business or political atfairs of anv
kind but gives the remainder of the
day to his family and to social duties.
He works punCtually and without
sparing himself and eXacts the same
kind Of service from subordinates. He
takes personal supervision of n good
many things which hitherto lad been
left to run themselves. For example,
he believes i'm making daily inspection
of public work on the new capitol and
he does not inform the contractors in
advance as to the time of his coming
He watches details wherever he goes
and while he is not lost in them he is
as particular with reference to little
things as To big ones. The Colored por-
ter who said Roosevelt was "a regular
cuss for wOrkin described the stua-
! ton exactly if not elegantly.
1t is refreshing to watch the pro-
grcss OF such Il career.

has claimed on the first ballot and
about what the more reasonable of his
adversaries conceded to him. 1t is pos
sible that If the fight were long pro-
tracted few Of these supporters might
fan away. but more than a hundred
of them are Quay men to the end;
hence it is easy to see that his follow
ers can control the situation.
Behind Quay stands the solid Re
publican organization, the state ad-
mlnistration and the prestige of an un-
broken record of political victories.
Against him are massed a few men
who oppose him conscientiously and a
great many who are simply trying to
pay off old scores. The opposition has
been cemented by the bonds of mutual
hate, hut it has in common nothing
else. 1t has no undisputed leader \
