Last Thoughts from Herbert Spen-
Ger" is the title of a book from the
pen of the distinguished scientist
which, it is announced, will be his
last.
During the years spent in writing
various systematic works. he says in
the preface, there have from time to
time arisen ideas not fitted for incor-
poration in them. Many of these have
found places in articles published in
reviews, and are collected together in
the three volumes of my essays. But
there remains a number which have
not yet found expression; some of the
relatively trivial some of more inter-
est. and some which l think are i'm

forty essays, ranging over a wide field
of knowledge, make up the volume.

AS a proof of the interest which the
German people are taking in matters
beyond the seas, it may be noted that
the eminent Prof Woker of Berne
University has translated MIR. Poultney
Bigelow's Children of the Nations, .
and a well-known Berlin publisher will
bring out the book shortly. Mr.. Bige-
low counts this as a special compli-
ment to his work on colonization, par
ticularly since he found little to praise
in the Far East. The. book itstelf is
mainly a record of the authors per-
sonal experiences in the different col
onies of the world. 1t is possible of
course, that the fact that Mr.. Bigelow
was a schoolmate of the Emperor of
Germany and that the latter is said to
have much respect for the authors
abilities as a writer, had something to
do with the translation. Mr.. Bigelow
has taken up his residence permanent
ly in New York city, that is to say as
permanent a residence as any man of
his habits can have. Several weeks
out of each year are spent by Mr..
Bigelow in lecturing on themes of
national interest before colleges and

"A QUEER OLD ROW..

Jackson always was queer town.
Just now the sermon Of Rev. ".
P. Price is the all-absorbing theme
Of discussion.
The Evening News endorses what
the preacher says-and then proceeds
to make an anti-prohibition capitol
out of it,
The Clarion Ledger mildly de-
clares that the preachers picture was
overdrawn and that some people are
trying to make campaign thunder for
the municipal election out of it.
And thus there appear TO be
wheels within wheels.
In Jackson politics enters into ev-
erything and it seems that a minister
can't even rebuke sin from his pulpit
without having political capital made
out of it.
The acknowledges thinks it a
mistake for preacher to point oat
meanness il that city. 1t says:
The Clarion-Ledger does not be-
lieve that Jackson Is worse than
other towns of its size; and sees no
good, and possibly Inuch harm, in
holding it up as Sodom and Co
morrah.
"No worse than other towns of its
size!" Well, may be not, but if not
great many people are badly de
ceiyed. According to the Clarion
Ledger's idea it would appear that
the best thing to do is for officers to
close their eyes to meahness and ey-
erybody else keep mum. Rev. Mr..
Price seems to have different idea.
He believes it best to 'tell the truth
and shame the devil" If the truth
be either for or against saloons, let it
come. II it be either for or against
the existing administration, let it
come.
But Jackson may prefer darkness
to light. 1t looks that way, anyhow

Try to Get Ont of the Gloom and the
Shadows of Life.
Nothing contributes more to the high
est success than the formation OF the
habit of enjoying things. Whatever
your calling in life may be. whatever
misfortunes or hardships may come to
you, make up your mind resoluteiy
that, come what may, you will get the
most possible real enjoyment out of ev-
cry day; that you will increase your
capacity for enjoying life by trying to
find the sunny side Of every experience
of the day. Resolutely determine that
you will see the humorous side OF
things. No matter how hard or I'M
yielding your environment may seem
to be, there is a sunny side If you can
only see it. The mirth provoking fac
ulty, even under trying circumstances.
is worth more to young man or We
man starting out In life than a fortune
without it. Make up your mind that
you will be an optimist; that there
shall be nothing of the pessimist about
you; that you will carry your own sun
shine wherever you CO.
There is longevity in the sunny soul
that eases our jolts and makes our
sides shake with laughter.
There Is Il wonderful medicinal effect
in good cheer. Good news and glad IT,
dlngs have a magic effect even upon
invalids.
We often see whole store or factory
or home transformed by one sunny
soul. On the other hand, we have seen
them blighted and made dark by a
gloomy, morose, fault finding person.

Always Dying.

Life consists in series Of changes of
tissue, and the human economy is SIM
ply, so far as its material part Is con-
cerned, machine and primarily de-
ponds on food as the most important
factor in keeping it in working order.
When 1t Is said that we commence to
die as soon as we are born, it of course
means that certain parts Of the body
Immediately begin to perish; their ex-
istence is ephemeral; they come and
90, are replenished and decay. They
are the dying parts Of that system OF
life which may last little while, but
which must eventually yield to the In
exorable law Of nature. The nails, the
hair, ETC., are observable as an instance
of this decay. The same rule applies
to every other organ and tissue OF the
body, though it is not palpable to the
naked eye. The skin is always peeling.
The food that is taken In the one hour
nourishes the system and elects that
which was taken the hour before.
