The Secret of Success.

Faithfulness is The explanation OF many
a successful career. Opportunity, ability
and the friendly assistance that may be
given all tend to further ones efforts, but
the persistent, undaunted faithfulness to
the labor in hand, in the very face of op,
position and hindrance and obstacles, is
that which conquers. The character that
is developed by devotion to duty, in life's
smallest undertakings, is being equipped
for glorious achievements. Therein is
found the secret of uccess.-Presbyteria

Full Faith in Christia nifty.

One cannot give money or anything else
with the same passion with which he gives
himself. All other forms OF conservation
are secondary - -, valuable, but secondary;
No generation, therefore, can show its full
faith in Christianity which does not offer
its best gifts.-William j. Tucker.

GROWING USE OF sPEcTAcLEs.
Modern inventions Have Done Much
to Preserve Eyesiqht.

"Spectacles. said an ophthalmolo-
gist, according to the Philadelphia
Record, are as old as wagons, | sup
pose, 2r as clothes. Wasn't a pair
found recently in a mummy case that
dated back to something like 800
years before Christ? But the spec
tacles OF the ancients were merely
magnifying glasses, and the modern
sorts, the p"smaJic, the spherical, the
concaye, tae convex, and the cylindri-
cal, which correct double vision, re-
fraction, nyopia, hypermetropia, as
tlSmatiS3n, etc.-are comparatively
modern inventions. They are made
of rock crystal, and they have done
more good than anything else in
modern medicine, except, perhaps,
anaesthetics. Medical records show
that there is now 40 per cent less OF
blindness than there used to be in
the world, and this Improvement is
due entirely to the use of spectacles,
which have kept weak eyes from sue
cumbing, as braces keep weak limbs
from succumbing. There is also much
less of headache than there was. A
great deal OF that came, you know,
from the eyes, and that sort of head.

The New Association Beginning to
 Take Shape.

The American Fair and Racing asso- citation is rapidly taking shape. A very large and enthusiastic meeting of horsemen and those interested in good horses was held at the Hotel Adams last night and the beginning of q per manent organization was made. Yer and W. N. Tiffany acted as secretary. After a brief discussion of the plans of the proposed association a committee consisting of Walter Bennett, w. B. Cleary and w N Tiffany was appoint ed to prepare a system of bylaws. One of the things determined upon was to organize an association with a capital stock of $50 900. divided into shares of S10 each. A committee was appointed to solicit subscriptions to the stock. The members of this committee are w. W. Cook. c. J. Hall, H. A. Hughes, H. I. Latham, C. M. Sturgis. l. R. Krue- ger. J. W. Graham. Jack Gibson. pr. Howard Ramsey and George Klotz- bach. This comr-i,tee will hold a meet ing at the Hotel Adams next Tuesday night.
 The object of the association Is to foster the raising of good horses in this valley and in the territory and to en- courage not only racing events, but all kinds of gentlemanly outdoor sports. It Is the object of the members to afford an attraction to those visiting the city and to place one more pleasure within the reach of the citizens.
 The plans of the association involve, though perhaps not immediately. the creation of a territorial fair.
