The Dauntless Burner company of
Massillon, with n branch otfice III this

MI. J' H. htyhoiun VI MusshioH,

a Democrat representative he said:

build n factory or rent u building for

fine city here, supplied with natural
gas, and that is what we want"
"Our reason for doing this con.
tinued Mr.. Reynolds, ''is because we

There Is blood in the inlS-well clotted,
There are stains on the laurel-leaf,
And the pages OF fame are blGttcd

The bird Is slaughtered for fashion,
And the beast is killed for sport;
And never the word compassion

For the parent seal In the water

That some sister or wife or daughter
Her beauty may bcautify.
And the mcrciful thought we smother
For such is The way OF mani

FROM LEckEy.s THE MAP OF
LIFEs


1t Is rnc OF the paradcxes OF human
nature that the things that are most
struggled for and the things that are
most enyied are not those which give
either the most intense or the most
unmixed Joy.
II is probable that as the world goes
on there will be a steadily increasing
tendency TO judge moral qualities and
courses OF conduct mainly by the de-
gree in which they promote or dimin-
ish human happiness.
Overwork. in all departments of life.
is commonly bad economy. not so
much because Ii often breaks down
heaith-most of what is attributed To
this cause is probably rather due to
anxiety than to work-as because 1t
seldom fails to impair the quality OF
work.
Pleasure is a jewel which viii only

the worst Of pains. though the islands
Of leisure that stud a crowded, we'll
occupied life may be among the things
20 which we look back with the great
delight.
As Spin0za has taught, the proper
study OF wise man is not how to die,
but how 20 live" and as long as he is
disrharging this task Alright he may
leave the end to take care OF itself The
great guiding landmarks of wise life
are indeed few and simple; to DO our
duty-to avoid useless sorrow-to ac-
qHiesce patiently in the inevitable.
The amount of pure and almost
spontaneous malevoience in the world
is probably far greater than we at first
imagine. In public life the workings
Of this side of human nature are at
