The great service which MIR.
Pulitzer's manihcent endowment
will render to journalism will be to
raise its standard. His school may
not produce great editors, for they
like the poet, are born. not made.
There have been great editors whose
education was scant. Horace Gree
lew was one of them, but if he had
had the opportunities which MIR.
Pulitzer's generous gift offers It
would have saved him from many
errors, and that without detractlng
from his powers as a writer. Of
all the men connected with Ameri-
can journalism during the last gen
Grafton, Charles A. Dana was the
most accomplished. His wide and
varied culture was reflected on ev-
cry page, in almost every line, of
the journal he made such a success,
but never dimmed the brilliance OF
its wit or dulled the keen edge of
its irony or the satire.-Bridgeport

Prevention Better Than Cure.

1t is coming generally to be ad-
mitted, even in Germany, which in
vented the sanatoriunl, that its main
role in the treatment of tubcrcu-
losis is educativc. Curative it may
be, but it is far more valuable as a
means of i;nparting knowledge
about prevention. Until an .ntl-
tuberculosis serum is discovered
prevention remains the only eff
cicnt means OF dealing with this
malady, and it is almost a pity
that its importance should have
been obscured by the "fresh-alr
cure. OF "fresh-air" prevention we
can not hear too much. With open
windows, especially in the purer ar
of night, and sufficient food. one
may DEFY tuberculosis. When the
responsible members of tie govern
ment follow the advice of every
living hygienist. rather than their
own ignorance and prohibit public
expectoration. there will soon re-
main no tubercle bac;lli to defy.
Meanwhile a tubcrculous patient
dies about every seven minutes IN
this country.

"Getta You Some Ambish."

Young man, what is your aim IN
this life! Your aim may be high,
but the great trouble with so many
of YOU is that you are such poor
shots. There is much for you to ann
at, but the highest aim of your life
should be to live such life that
YOU will be missed when YOU die.
There are many men today VINO
could be useful men. mentally, phy-
sically and financially able. but they
live for self. and self alone and
when they die they will pass out
without mourncr. Their greed Tor
gain has given a deaf ear and blind
eye to all that is pure and noble.
Their first consideration in all bus
mess transactions is the almighty
dollars and not the good they may
do or the friends they may make.
Woung man, if your aim in life Is
to make money, it matters not how
it comes. there will be no doubt as
to your making it, but when you
have amassed a fortune you will
doubtless find You have no friends,
save for your money. Like a gnat
on the horn of the OK, the world
will not know when you came or
left. Have lofty aim in this life;
live to do the world some good and
to be missed when you die. a kind
word, a gentle deed, will cost you
nothing, and it will live long after
you have left the busy scenes oil
this life.-Greenville Banner.
