The ''don't care" spirit character
ICES the efforts of too many Of the
rising generation. Business men
are looking for boys with energy
and determination. Carelessness
and Indifference have already their
full representation in the list OF
failures, but if you are not careful
you will be found in the same class.
Examine yourself and if you find
that you are a candidate for mem
bership and have only drifted into
it unawares, you should turn your
course and keep a watchful eye to
see that you do not get in beyond
redemption. Very little hope is
held out for a boy who goes at
everything in careless way. The
future is bright for one who is will
ing and not afraid to work.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1903-12-16
WHY PEOPLE SUICIDE.

Suicides seem to be on the increase
and it is surprising what causes lead
ing men to self destruction. "Life is
sweet" is not so much an undisputed
fact as it used to be. Some of the
reasons given by the people who volun-
tarily sever the silver cord are as curl
Gus as the Vaccinations of politician.
A man killed himself because "there
wasn't fun enough in the world for
him." The eternal city must be a
jocular sort of place if'he can be con-
tented in it. A father committed
suicide because he thought his wife
loved their daughter better than she
did him. If he finds any peace beyond
the grave he must leave his green
miner could not stand prosperity. He
sought death because he had SO much
money he did not know what to do
with it, and all pleasure had palled
upon him. Heaven, to be pleasant to
him, must be an impoverished place.
A girl found life uncomfortable after her
father married woman younger than
herself. The Immortality of her imag
nation could have no such irony as
that in it. A mason quaffed the hem
lock because he carelessly built wall
out of plumb In the world to follow
this he hoped, with good reason, that
everything would be square and plumb.
He had enough and of a good enough
kind TO die on, but he was certain
that if he lived his stock would
depreciate. A farmer threw up the
sponge because balky horse eXasper-
ated him. A bride ended the farce be-
cause her husband swore at her. The
mother Of five children, stirred Of life"
lay down and died by her own hand.
She hoped to find rest in heaven A
young girl, the victim Of SANDER,
sought shelter in the grave from evil
tongues. A little girl was driven to
self destruction by being accused of
stealing. And SO they go, out OF an
exasperating, temper trying, soul
scuffing world into-they know not
what. Each one has constructed a
heaven where his desires will be
granted and his wounds healed. Some
even hope for nothing but the motion
less rest of the grave. Either the
pressure of life is very terrible, Or hui
manity is. pitiably weak. The r9adi-
ness with which disappointed mortals
tnrn their backs upon the world and
set their fares toward the valley of the
shadow of death argues that some sort
of leaven is at work which makes life
more dreadful than DEATH What is it?

New Game.
Have YOU played pit?"

''Have you played pitt"
This is the query that will soon be
going the rounds in Lancaster for
the latest game is now in the mark
ct in Chicago and other large cities.
It is a speculative game and is play
ed with cards, but not the regular
playing variety. Instead of the US
ual trumps of hearts, diamonds, clubs
and spades. the pasteboards are
marked wheat, oats, corn and other
products that are sold on the board
of trade. The game is being sub
stituted for bridge whist and skate,
and bids fair to gain favor every
where. tits game for men, women
and children and can be played by
thee or seven persons. There are
nine cards each of wheat, corn and
oats, etc. The idea is to obtain, by
trading, all nine cards Of any one
kind. In this way corners are es-
tablished. The game is won by the
first trader making 500 points, each
article counting SO many points,
when a corner is established

D. T. Parker's Lancaster friends
advised him strongly on the occa-

suggestions remains to be seen.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
Interesting Notes From Our Special
Political Correspondent.

The extra session is over and the
record of the Democrats in con-
gress is a speech against the Pan
anna treaty by Senator Morgan, an
other against Cuban reciprocity by
Senator Carmack, and the proposal
of Canadian reciprocity by Repre-
sentative Williams. Nearly the en-
tire country favors the Panama
treaty and Cuban reciprocity, and
reciprocity With Canada and Mex
leo would be promotive Of broader
prosperity but it will of course be
opposed in spots by private inter
ests.
''No man is above the law and no
man is below it,, declares the pres
ident in speaking in his annaul mes
sage to congress Of the relations
between capital and labor.
Senator Hanna says he is tired of
denying reports Of ill feeling be-
tween himself and the president.
The Democratic papers never tire
of printing these reports.
Charles Murphy, the Tammany
leader, is power in the democratic
party and Senator German is doubt
less much disappointed to hear that
he favors Judge Parker as the dem
ocratic presidential nominee. The
Senator's Jim Grow policy did not
receive the approval of the north
ern democrats.
President Roosevelt declares IN
his message to congress, "The Civ
ers and takers of brides stand on an
evil prominence Of infamy. The ex-
posture and punishment of corrup-
ton is an honor to the nation, not q
disgrace.
The republicans are pleased that
Croker, Tammany's former leader,
did not induce William J. Bryan to
remain in England, as he has prom
lsed to take part in six more presl-
Dental campaigns.
General Reyes, the Colombian
special minister to the United States,
was very cordially received by the
president, but nothing definite was
said about his hopeless mission.
Former Governor Allan Chandler,
of Georgia, declared that German
was the best man for the democrats
to nominate, but that he was ''for
any Yankey that can lick Roose-
velt". He shows some wisdom,
however, in advising the democrats
not to use the Panama affair as an
issue.
The English House of Lords has
decided not to allow women to
practice law.
Despite all rumors to the contra
ry, it seems certain that General
Woods nomination to be major
general will be confirmed by the
Senate.
