TREATMENT OF THE JEWS.
Roumania Laws Which Stirred Amer
lean Government Published.

The friends of the Jews in Roumania
have published a list OF the recent
laws which stirred our government to
the diplomatic note which in turn has
created such a stir in Europe We
cannot give the full list for want of
space, but a few samples will serve
to show the harsh and tyrannical char
acter Of the laws imposed upon these
unfortunate people in that country.
One law, passed in 1887, excludes
Jews from the Tobacco trade. from
the public service and public works,
and penalties Roumanians employing
Jews in any retail trade. Other laws
of later date prohibit Jews from being
employed in important posts on rail-
way work, and in any manner In the
public sanitary service aud health de-
partments. Other statutes enacted in
1898 and 1899 exclude Jews from sec
ondary and upper schools. and also
from agricultural and professional in
situations of learning. But more
sweeping than any other is the law
passed in March Of the present year
prohibiting the employment Of Jewish
working men in any trade or calling
And. as a clincher to this last enact
ment, a clause was added requiring
that Jews coming into Roumania from
other lands must prove that similar
rights are granted to Roumanians In
their (the foreigners) country.-Les-
lies Weekly.

POOR MANS CHANCE.

It is being said in many Eastern
journals and not few Western ones
that the day Of the poor man in min
ing Is gone by; that no one but a big
corporation can succeed in mining any
more; that it takes big capital to do
anything; that most of the good min
ing propositions are controlled by
trusts or millionalres and that there
is no longer opportunity for a man
with little money This is all mis-
take. The day of the poor" mining
man was never brighter nor greater
than right now.
The assertion that most Of the good
mines are owned by trusts or million
aires Is heard most often, but there Is
least in that of any of the pessimistic
utterances. One hears Of the big mil
honaire owners more than he does Of
the thousands Of substantial com
panles that go right on with little
aotoriety, paying good wages and
monthly yielding dividends.
Finally, 1t may be justly said In an
swer to the assertion that opportunity
no longer exists for the man with a
little money, that never In the worlds
history were there fiuer opportunities
in mining for the man with a little
money than in the west half of Amer

VALUE OF cHEERFULNEss.
The Keynote of Happiness and the
Passport to Public Favor.

Cheerfulness and good nature have a
value in the market. The lack of them
explains the slow progress of the down
fall of persons otherwise sufficiently
endowed. A good sale has often been
missed because the salesman repealed
by his unfortunate manner, though he
may have been a good fellow at heart.
The CHEEKY clerk establishes clientage
and holds his place because he Is skilled
in the fine art of friendliness. One is
willing to pay good price for cheerful
service. 1t Is not quite enough to do
thing well. 1t should be done gra-
ciously.
Those who sing at their tasks, as
many workmen do have learned the Sc
cret of getting on in the world and
making the best of it. A gracious man
ner, all the world knows, explains the
rise of many men in political and Off
citl life, so that mere good fellowship
is often accepted for craftsmanship.
The popular politician almost invaria-
bly, has a sunny greeting for all sorts
and conditions of men. This Is the
philosophy of his success. 1t would
have served him we'll in any calling in
which he might have engaged. Here
and there one may advance to great
heights of success and fame who has
pushed his way upward despite a cold
and forbidding manner. We speak Of
the rule of success, not its exception.
The value of a sunny disposition is
evident in all occupations which bring
persons in contact with the public.
The man who presides in the ticket
Office of the railway station, the con-
dUctor on railroad train or a street
car, the clerk behind the counter and
others who serve the public daily have
need for this great endowment. Wher-
ever found a cheerful man or woman
'is a better thing to find than a FIVE
pound note. He or she is a radiating
focus of good WILL and their entrance
into a room Is as though another can
die had been lighted. We need not
care whether they can solve the 47th
proposition; they do better thing than
that, they practically demonstrate the
great theorem of the loveableness Of
life. "-Philadelphia Ledger.

LIARS AND POTATO BUGS.
Gems of Mendacity the Rural Ananias
Sometimes Reels Forth.

Since the days of Baron Munchausen,
and even before that, the clever liar has
not been without honor-and an audi
ence. This was what William Pellet
OF Rochester was musing over the other
afternoon at the Hoffman house. Mr..
Pellet is a commission man, and tray
els through the Eastern and Middle

to carve your life statue from the
rough marble given to you. The salary
you receive, compared with the real
value of your work to yourself. if il
be done in the proper spirit, is as are
the chips which fly from the sculptor's
chisel to the angel which he calls out

change for your services, at the be

DOGS HOBBY is SHOPPING.
Denver Canine as Enthusiastic as Any
Woman Bargain Hunter.

Denver has a dog with the shopping
habit. In this regard he is supposed to
hold the unique and enviable position
of being the only shopping dog in
America.
Ben" is his name and he has the
shopping craze worse than the most
confirmed woman bargain hunter.
Ben is a cocker spaniel and is owned
by Mrs. s. A. Beman of 1884 Gilpin
street. He Is only year and half old
and it was about six months ago that
he began to make himself useful. His
mistress taught him simple tricks at
first. but short time later Ben began
to act as herder for a lot of Belgian
hares which his mistress was raising in
the back yard. He now takes care of
the hares and sees that nothing hap
pens to them, as we'll as any person
could.
But Ben's greatest delight is to go to
the store or to do some shopping. His
mistress gives him basket with a note
In It explaining what she wants and
quickly he runs down to Scott's gro
cery on the corner below to buy the
necessary provisions. When he gets all
of his bundles in his basket he starts
home as quickly as he came.
Recently Ben entered the store to
make his usual purchases and all OF the
clerks were busy. He waited for u few
minutes. but his patience soon gave
out. and jumping on box in front of
one Of the counters, he began to bark
in a commanding voice. II is needless to
say that he received prompt attention.
Ben is very fond o. children and as a
result is very popular in the neighbor-
hood where he resldes.-Denver Post.
