sioner Of Public Works Blocki received
a reply.
The Burlington road held that the value
OF the scrap iron should be deducted from
the bill-that scrap iron was worth two
cents a pound. Deputy Commissioner
Brennan figured that hydrant sold for
scrap iron would bring about $l.97. So
this amount was deducted from the bill.
You would scarcely expect a great cor

dividends possible. Big concerns pay high
salaries to men who can save more than

are conducted with success by making
their entire profits from the utilization Of
what was formerly waste.

These Need encouragement.

The person who really needs the atten-
ton of the school commencement speak
ers is the man who has passed his college
days and has found to his dismay that
sheer force OF circumstances has crowded
him into rut. This is the individual
whose mind has stopped growing and who
fancied that his education was com
pleted" when he left his high school or
academy or college. Very likely some
misguided professor assured him at the
time that his education would prove in
valuable to him. He looks back and
fails to see where it has advanced him
materially. He has forgotten most Of
the facts he learned save a few vague
congratulations. He would be at a loss
to extract the square root Of any number
of four figures he could not cOnstrue
Latin sentence or conjugate Latin verb
to save his life: physics, chemistry. math-
ematics-all are sealed books to him.
That he decides to put these things be-
hind him, concludes that his time for
education is past and puts aside with
sullen resignation all future opportuni-
ties for learning is not at all surprising

Church Entertainment.

The prediction lately made by a minis
ter in one OF the Western citics-Chicago,
we bclieve-to the effect that the only
way in which it would soon be possible
to maintain an interest in church work
would be by means OF "the continuous
vaudeville" startled great many con-
sentative church goers. and possibly
shocked some OF them. However. the
stream Of tendency seems to have set
rather strongly In the direction Of full
tillment Of this prophecy. Billiards, ping
pong, hops. amateur theatricals. secular
concerts. legerdemain, charades. socia-
bles. fairs, suppers, primarily for pur-
poses OF revenue, music Of doubtful sa-
credness-if there is dividing line be-
tween the sacred and secular In music; all
Of these have come to be recognized as
adjuncts OF more or less value in church
work. The underlying idea seems to be
to make the church an attractive social
club. and thus bring within its sphere
Of influence many who value a church
connection at the outset chiefly for the
social opportunities it offers. 1t would
be difficult to find serious objection TO
this view Of so much Of the work Of a
church as may properly be considered sec
ular. There may be line which it would
be dangerous to cross, but where it lies
would probably be as difficult to define
as is the Alaskan bOundary.-New York

HydrOphObia SCares.

There is no special hydrophubia season.
In the hot months dogs suffer from in
tense heat and are liable to heat stroke,
especially il they be unable to obtain
water. No doubt the so-called rabid
dogs are often the victims Of other dis
orders; but the germs Of rabies are 70
more active and general in summer than
in winter Although this fact has been
presented to the public repeatedly. every
dog which is not plainly in good health
in July and August is pursued to its
death by police and public.
1t is almost certain that the popular
falarics about mad dogs and hydrophobia
have killed more persons than has ny dro-
phoba itself. Fairly sensible persons
when bitten by Il cross dog often become
panic stricken and die in great agony
after exhibiting many of the alleged
symptoms OF hydrophobia. although the
dog in each case may have been free of
rabies. a typical instance was that OF Il
Chicago woman whose maiady wis dag
noscd by two doctors as hydrophobil.
After her death the dog which bit her
was hunted up and was found to De en-
tircly well. Intelligent people in every
community should stoutly combat every
mad dog scare. Instead of having an al
legged mad dog shot they should shut him

Carelessness in Behavior.

The traditional freedom and natural
ness Of American social relations have a
charm and a value when under proper
training they are made to promote in both
boys and girls mutual respect and anaf-
fccted modcsty. Doubtless, too. that I'M
chaperoned companonship Of young pco-
pie which so shocks foreigners results
for the most part in vrtuous affections
and happy marriages. But this is some
thing far different from the license and
disregard Of decOrum which is becoming
alarmingly prevalent, not among the low
err orders in the social scale but in fam
lilies which are considered intelligent and
we'll bred. The manners Of young men
have dcgencrated. They will act and
speak in the presence OF women in Il way
that would not have been tolerated gen
GRAFTON ago. and young women who are
unquestonably without evil intent will
conduct themselves as no woman could
have done a few years ago without seri-
GUS damage to her reputation.
There is evidently need OF revival Of
the questionable art of bringing up chill
dren. Boys and girls are growing up to
be lawless. Lacking respect for author
ity and conventions they easily lose re-
spect for the virtues which authority and
conventions seek to guard. Laxity in
homes and schools, contact under unfa.
vorable conditions Of young men and
women in business life. the rush. self
ishncss and bad manners Of our crowded
streets. shops and public conveyances,
all tend to the destruction OF that good
breeding which commands respect and
nurturcs modesty.-Ncw York Tribune.

Prospect of LONGEVITY.

Timid people and pessimists are inclin-
ed to fear that the progress Of invention
is increasing the dangers Of accident and
disease to such an extent that human life
must necessarily be shortened. This fear
appears to be groundlcss. Collected sta
tistics show that the average duration of
human life is steadily increasing. Some
interesting and striking facts along this
line are presented in a recent report Of
the Chicago board Of health. The aver

to more than thirty-one years. Exclusive

Emigration to Canada.

Can American emigrants be "assimi-
lated" TO institutions and types Of gov
eminent inferior to those Of their native
land! That is a question raised by the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat in reference
to the American emigration to the west
ern provinces of British America.
1t is very much to be doubted whether
the institutions and types Of government
which the American emigrant will lind in
Canada will Impress him as at all in
ferior 10 those OF his own country. He
certainly will find that they guarantee
quite as large liberty as those of his
native land. and that the mOnarchical ele
ment which is supposed to be injected in
to the Canadian government by its nOmi-
nal relations to the British Crown is
so far as its practical influence in the
affairs of the Government is concerned.
legal fiction. Nevertheless it is quite
possible that any large American emil
grafton to the Northwestern British prov
inccs might prove a disturbing political
factor. Not because the Americans would
be at all discontinued with the political
institutions of the country. which in some
respects are freer and better ordered
than our own. but because they would
add new impulse to the growth Of the
opinion that the interests Of that region
would be greatly promoted by anncXa-
ton to the United States il annexation
shall prove to be the only means OF re-
moving the obstacles to free CONNER
cial intercourse. At present sentiment
Of loyalty to the British Crown is so
strong among the British Canadians that
the motives Of self-interest which prompt
their occasional consideration OF the ben
etits of closer relations with the United
states are held in allegiance. But this
sentiment would probably be gradually
weakened by large infusion of the
American element in the population OF
Northwestern Canada. So that although
Canadian experience heretofore has | cen
that American immigrants very readily
ass;miate with their Canadian cousins
and adapt themselves to Canadian insti-
tutions. they have heretofore been known
in Canada rather as transient visitors
than permanent settlers. and the latter
at least have been too few in number to
have any particular influence on Cana
dian politics. But il they got to going
to Canada in large numbers they are like
ly to prccipitate problems which Cana
dian statesmen desire above all things
to avoid, or at least to postpone.-St. Paul

Men with Small CAPITAL.

1t has been objected by some that tech
meal education should not be fosered
with public funds because the fields for
its employment are being rapidly pre-
empted by the trusts and gigantic COM
binations Of capital in manufacturing and
other productive technical industries.
Frequently we are told that the man
who has only skill and small capital il
being put out Of the way of business and
success by the Ovcrshad downing combines.
Yet it should be plain to any observer
that there are hundreds of profitable tech
meal industries that the trusts have not
captured and, in the nature of things,
could not consolidate ana control. The
profit to be made from them in any given
locality is too small to engage the Gu
pidity Of a trust and yet is sufficient to
amply repay the enterprise and industry
Of IA small operator. Now inventions are
creating new industries almost daily and
in the exploiting Of these the man with
technical education and small capital
finds plentiful opportunities for steady
occupation and satisfactory returns
We find from the census that in 1890
there were 9.971 manufacturing nStab-
lishments in the city Of Chicago. There
were 10.2O3 in 1900. or an increase of
nearly 100 per cent. But the average
amount of capital to the establishment
was 20 per cent less in 1900 than in
1890. which shows that plenty Of men
found chances to invest their brains. skill
and small capital in good enterprises.
The trusts do not own all those nearly
twenty thousand factories in Chicago, nor
the majority in st. Louis. Cincinnati or
Atlanta. The truth is that the argument
for giving varied technical instruction to
the youth of the land was mover stronger
than o-day.-Atlanta Constitution.

Qualities, alignment and Industry.

Qualities, Judgment and Industry.
Mr.. Gates is now the most spcctacu-
lar figure in the financial landscape.
Wall street, that roaring furnace fed
with life and hope" Is gazing at him
in open mouthed wonder. There is Il
holiness about him that all admire
The story Of his rise Is an interesting
one. and so far as it shows how legti-
mate success in business is achieved, a
profitable one. One OF his earliest bust
ness positions was that of travelling
salesman, and the rise OF his income
from a modest salary to an almost fab
ulous amount is an account, not of sue
cessful speculation. but of the results
of common sense and hard work.
AS young man. Gates was selling
hardware for Isaac l.. Elwood, when
barbed wire was just beginning to be
used for fencing; and he erected the
first corral in the State Of Texas. He
soon decided that there was more
money to be made in the manufacture
Of wire than by selling it on salary,
and with some friends bought three
barbed wire machines and started a
factory on total investment Of less
than $4,000. The business proved very
probable and they soon started another
small factory. Here they made so
much money that they declared divi-
dends Of about 80 per cent per week.

While brains and work are necessary
to make artistic pictures. good outfit
is also essential. The box should be

ground glass. the shutter one of the
automatic time and speed cOmblnators,
but the most important Of all Is the
lens. 1t Is better to have a good lens
and cheap box and shutter than a fine
box and shutter with cheap lens. 1t
is also advisable to own two lenses-a
wide angle for interior and confined
places, and a rectilinear. The rectili-
near lens should be of high speed and
not too long focus, for all around
work. A high grade combination lens
Is very desirable. which by removing
one combination give very long focus
with remaining cOmbination-is at
times very important. The subject of
lenses is an inexhaustible ones, and we
will endeavor to treat this subject in
some future article.
