PRESIDENT RooSEvELT'S speech at
Chicago last Thursday night was al
most entirely regarding the monroe
Doctrine''-a review and defense of it,
in which he said: "The Monroe Doc
trine is not international law, and
though / think one day it may become
such, this is net necessary as long as II
remains a cardinal feature OF our Tor
eign policy and as long as we possess
both the will and the strength TO make
il effective This last point, my fellow
citizens, is all important, and is one
which as people we can never afford
to forget / believe IN the Monroe
doctrine with all my heart and soul; |
am convinced that the immense ma
iority of our fellow -countrymen so be-
iieve in it; but I would infinitely prefer
TO see us abandon ii than to see us put
it forward and buster about it, and yet
fail to build up the efficient fighting
strength which in the last resort can
alone make it respected by any strong
foreign power whose interest it may
ever happen to be to violate it.
Boosting and clustering are as objec-
tionable among nations as among 1ndl-
viduals, and the public men of great
uation owe it to their sense of national
self-respect to speak courteously OF
foreign powers. just as q brave and self
respecting man treats all around him
courteously. But though to boast is
bad, and causelessly to insult another,
worse; yet worse than all is to be guilty
Of boasting, even without insult. and
when called to the proof to be unable to
make such boasting good. There is a
homely old adage which runs: Speak
softly and carry big stick; and you
will ya far -

The First Clear Night.
(By the Prospect Star Club J

l.
1t is astonishing how little people
know about the stars that nightly pas!
in silence over their heads. These
are the same stars that stood out there
in the blue sky before you were born
before Columbus with their aid dis
covered America yes, they were there
.'in the beginning" In the oldes
writings of the oldest nations we fine
these same stars described. We fine
them mentioned in the Old Testament
books of Job and Amos. Yet if We
happen to look at them at all we show
but passing interest in them.
The first clear night at eight O'Clock
look northward You will easily make
out the Great Bear, or Big Dipper as il
is usually called 1t is composed oi
seven very bright stars. The cup Of
the dipper is inverted at this hour
The last two stars ON the outer side OF
the cup were named Dubhe and Merak
by the ancients. They are best known
as the pointers" because they point tc
the North Star, Dubhe being the nearer
one to the North Star
The North Star being almost directly
in line with the earth's axis, appears in
the same place from night to night If
we were at the North Pole, it would be
exactly overhead Around the North
or Pole Star all the other stars make a
great circle in a days time. Some OF
the most northern consultations OF
star groups never set but are visible in
all positions. But those farther away
from the Pole Star are only visible to us
in part of their circle, rising in the east
and setting in the west A neat device
for showing this daily rising and setting
is Whittaker's Plainsphere, published
by T. Whitaker, and Bible House,
New York, Price 65 cents. postpaid.
The North Star is very distant from
us, so far indeed, that it takes its light
forty eight years to reach the earth.
This is long distance, for light althc
not instantaneous, is very swift, the
swiftest thing in the universe, travelling
twelve million miles in a minute.
Next week we will become acquaint-
ed with some more of the prominent
consultations. This will do for a be
ginning IF you want to know
eternity and live-look at the stars

Gov. Pennypacker, on Monday, vetoed
the bill regulating the practice OF
barbering, and a bill authorizing one
railroad to buy part of another, as be
ing unconstitutional.
The Cook anti i-trading stamp bill

The Senate has another fool libel bill

liberty of the press is guaranteed by the
Constitution, along with free speech
Certain publications are privileged and
courts and juries have not the same in

truth that actuate some politicians.
