There is no purpose in life which per-

This protest spells failure, and is usually
attributed to ''bad-luck," by the victim.
II is not to be understood that we can
have but one interest in life; it is only
that we must have but one at time.
Think of one thing at time. Put your
whole mentality, your whole spirituality
and your physical vitality into the matter
at hand. Be direct, and send your thought
as straight as an arrow to the target Of

LESE MAJESTE.

Chattanooga News.
A Cornell professor writes to The At
lanta Constitution that the writers who
criticise and caricature President Roose-
welt should be severely punished. Tue
same issue of The Constitution contains
a cablegram informing the world that a
German priest has been arrested for lese
majeste, because he criticised the en-
press for having her picture taken in a
low cut dress. Such incidents give color
to the fear expressed by Judge Reagan,
of Texas, that this republic will be
changed into a monarchy. When the
crime of lese majeste becomes part OF
our institutions, monarchy is not far off.

on the river above the Big Eddy, broken
in two sections and ready to go to pieces
at any time.
Small & Emery's drive is all out of the
North fork and the crew is now working
on the South fork. The FIRST logs of the
drive have reached the Big Eddy.
Reports came in this morning stating
that there was good reason to believe
that the Indians aud settlers along the
river are stealing logs from the drive and
converting them into stovewood, posts
and houses. This practice has been fol-
lowed for some years and the thefts are
becoming so numerous that the company
has declared war on the thieves and all
persons caught stealing will be prose
cuted to the full extent of the law. The
drive logs are protected by brands burned
and cut in each log and they can be cas-
lily recognized by owners. The owners
state that they will place patrol on the
river if protection can not be secured
otherwise.
