You have heard of the bumptious-

man who had been setting off some of

Lewiston Journal. "Well, just see if
you ever heard the like of this: When
L was living in an apartment house in
New York, on the fifth story, two
painters were at work painting the ex-

at work was without a rail- which is
required by law. Both young men
seemed reckless, for 1 watched one as
he braced against the wall and threw
out the ladder by the pressure of his
feet,while his companion reached across
an angle of the wall to paint a distant
strip. 1t was a most foolhardy trick,
and 1 turned away sick at the sight.
Not a minute later there was a crash.
The ladder swung back and lurched
the young man down upon the pave

"Of course, l telephoned at once for
an ambulance. In it was the driver
and young doctor. The latter came
into the courtyard and approached the
injured man, who lay moaning on the

These be hard" times; not exactly
difficult times in the sense of getting
on in the world, for any man with am

times for hard" men, as opposed to

Press. Now, what is soft" man?
Permit me to give few Illustrations
The liberal hearted chap who allows
his friends" to work" him for mon
ey is pronounced soft" The chap
who goes out of his way to do a favor
is soft" He who believes the tale of
woe of acquaintance or stranger is
soft" He who is courteous and polite
to all corners is soft" He who pa
tiently waits half an hour, or more,
for friend to meet an appointment is
soft" He who does the strictly hon
orable thing in a risky transaction is
soft. He who refuses to line his
pockets with gold by fraud when the
opportunity presents itself is soft"
The soft man these days-the hon
orable, generous, heightened, compass
sionate man, liberal to fault, con-
scientious, full of the milk of human
kindness and turned to the Hottest
pitch of honesty; self-abnegating, self

synonymous with Grass stupidity, with
Stiffness, with asininity.
If you would skip along through life
with prospects good, never lend a cent
to a friend in distress; lend only to
friends in funds. Never give to the
poor except through an organized
charity, so that your donation may be
thoroughly advertised. Never do a
favor until you have sent for the press
agent. Never pay attention to hard
luck story; you know the man is lying.
Don't waste your precious time in
courtesy or politeness. Don't wait
longer than five minutes on any one
unless he owes you money, which he
is not likely to do if you are up to date.
Don't be afraid of lying if sure you
will not be found out. Lying is the
up-to-date mans privilege. Do others
as you do your brothers. Throw graf
itude to the winds. Never remember a
kindness. Forget everything but your
material future.

DOWIE A DIsAPPOINTMENT

J. A. Dowie, with his many hundreds
of followers from the theocratic city
which he was instrumental in found
ing near Chicago, and which he rules.
is distinct disappointment to New
York as New York is disappointment
to him. The New York papers gave
him all the advertisement that he could
reasonably ask, more indeed than he
desired of the kind they gave him,
but he has failed to create any other
impression in that city, if reports are
to be credited, than that he was a vul-
meeting in Madison Square Garden on
Sunday. AS many as 10000 people
were present, but he could not hold
his audience. The people came and
went. Only a few, besides the follow
ers he brought with him, remained
long in the Garden. Curiosity brought
the crowd and that was soon satisfied.
The fact that the people did not re-
main and hear what he had to say
angered Dowie, and he expressed his
opinion of the people of New York
very freely from his pulpit.
1t may be that he does believe that
he is the reincarnation of the prophet
Elijah, sent by God to prepare the
world for the second coming of Christ,
but it is remarkable that he has sue
ceeded in getting so many other peo-
pie to believe it, and to trust him with
apir{ttial welfare and THAR
earthly possessions.
Notwithstanding the fact that he has
built up a city of more than 10000 peo-
pie within forty-tive miles of Chicago,
and that converts to the doctrines he
breaches are arriving there in such
numbers that houses cannot be provid-
ed East enough to accommodate them,
it does not look now as if he would
meet with any success in New York.
Evidently he expected to raise a great
deal of money there and also to make
many converts. His failure to make
favorable impression on his first APP
pearance led him perhaps to say the
harsh things about the people of New
York which he is reported to have
said. Perhaps, however II he thinks
it necessary to his mission, he will do
like some politicians do, when things
appear in interviews with them in the
newspapers which they think harmful
to their interests, namely, deny that
| he was reported correctly.
1t must, of course, be admitted that
| Dowie is man of unusual force of
| character. AS to his sincerity there is
a difference of opinion. But it does
seem as if a man could not
hold so many people under his infiu-
ence as long as he has unless he were
sincere. He has probably succeeded
in thoroughly deceiying himself, and
actually believes he is the prophet he
| claims to be.
There isn't a great deal in the reli-

Samuel Little, millionaire, street

Saw 1t All in "a Day.

Among the privileges of the New
Yorker is that of showing his city tc
visiting friends, and he has an idea
that there are a good many points
worthy of notice, says the New York
Commercial. Last week a business
man downtown had a call at his office
by distant relative from the Fal
West, on his first visit to this metrop-
oils. After making inquiries into va
rious matters of family interest, the
city man said:
We'll, I'm so glad you have come to
New York at last! And I'll take a few
days Off to show you our town"
I'm sorry said the visitor, "but
we came yesterday and we're leaving in

thinks evil spirits are everywhere and
that it is his special mission to drive
them out.

he did in Chicago. Perhaps he did not

Mgre. Merry del Val. who succeeds
the astute Cardinal Rampolla as Papal
Secretary of State, is not yet forty
years old. He is not a member of the
Sacred College, though he will be Gre
ated a cardinal and elevated to MEM
bership i'm the college at the forthcom-
ing Consistory. That the Pope should
have gone outside of the Sacred Col
lege, and appointed a man so young
in years, is a very high tribute to
Mgre. Merry del Val. There is every
reason for thinking that no mistake
has been made in the selection, since
the new Secretary, brought up in an at
mosphere of church diplomacy, has
shown marked ability and has all of
the great questions relating to the
church at his fingers ends. His faith
err was the ambassador of Spain at
the Vatican. and Merry del Val HIM
self was for a number of years an in
mate of the Vatican as private secre-
tary to Pope Leo XIII. Besides this
he has visited several countries as rep
resentative of the Vatican on ecclesias-
teal, diplomatic and financial errands
Mgre. Merry del Val is a SDaniard
by nationality, though his mother was
English and he was born in England.
The founder Of his house, however was
Irish. About 100 years ago John Mer-
ry, member of an old Waterford, Ire
land, family went to Spain to take up
some vineyards that had been be-
queathed to him by relative. He
prospered and founded a great family
which became connected by marriage
with the family descended from Chris
topher Columbus. Descendants of the
house of John Merry now hold impor-
tant positions under the King of Spain,
Count Merry Colon being ambassa-
dor of Spain at the court of Italy. AL
fonso Merry del Val is now chief sec
rotary of the King of Spain.
Mgre. Merry del Val was first prom
inently heard of in this country when,
several years ago, he was sent as apos-
tohc delegate to Canada to compose
the differences between the church and
the government on the question of the
common schools. His mission was
successful and he succeeded in bring
ing about harmony. His policies are
said to be liberal. even advanced. and
his diplomacy is of a smooth and d.
rect kind that wins friends.
There is. of course. no direct diplo-
matte relation between the Vatican
and the United States. but in an in
direct way such. relation does exist. For
instance, there is the friar question
in the Philippines that has already
been the subject of negotiations and
which must receive further and similar
attentions. And as Secretary of State
of the Vatican. Mgre., or Cardinal
Merry del Val. as he will then be, will
have charge of the negotiations. In
view of the facts that he is Spanish
and his sympathies Were strongly with
Spain during the recent war, as they
have been since, it is to be expected
that he will hold out for all possible
concessions to the friars. 1t is only
natural that he should do so. Still,
there is no reason to apprehend any
long-continued controversy over the
matter or any driving of hard bar
gains.
