SOMETHING GOLD CANNOT BUY

There is something far better than
wealth,
Which men strive for and hoard till
they die;
For the life that is blessed with good
health
Wears a crown that no riches can buy;
And the mind Of contentment and ease,
Neither harassed by trouble nor care,
Has a rest in its haven of peace,
All unknown to the proud millionaire.
There is that which the world with it's
gold,
With its grandeur, and glory and might,
Is unable to give or withhold,
For its pains do it's pleasures all blight.
The good heart that is filed with pure
love,
And that feels for another's deep woe,
Has the source of its joy from above,
A fount that never ceases to flow.
Better than wealth is the mind that
scars,
And delights in it's search for truth;
That all the wide range of knowledge
explores,
AS a help and example to youth.
The mines that yield us jewels most rare
Are devoid of a gem the most pure;
And virtue set in her graces all fair,
Is jewel alone to endure.
There is something far better than gold,
That will rival the most precious stone,
A conscience correct is of value untold,
A compass that will guide to the throne,
IF we list to it's dictates of right,
We can face the unknown without fear;
And the angel of death, in his might,
Will cause not a sigh nor a tear.
A. Van Derwerken. in N. Y. Observer.

home requirements, has come a desire
to seek markets in other parts of the
world for the surplus product of the
manufacturing industries. This desire
has already manifeted itself in a rapid
increase in the expectation of manu-
features. The total value of manu-
features exported from the United
States has grown from a little over
S1,000,000 in 1890 to SIT 900, 900 in 1850,
$40,0O0,000 in 1860, SOS, O00, 900 in 1870,
$1O2,OOO,OOO in 1880, $151 100000 in
1890, and s433, 100000 in 1900, since
which time the annual total has not
fallen below the four-hun ired-million-
dollar line. That this increase has
been specially marked in the last de-
cade is shown by the fact that the
growth by decades in exports of manu-
features has been as follows: During
the decade ending with 1900, S1,125,-
900; 1910, $1,250,000; 1880, $4,000, 900;
1910, $4,000 900; 1850, $6,O00,000; 1860,
So, 600, 1000; 1870 s29, 900, 900; 1880, s34,-
100000; 1890, $49, 100000, and during
the decade ending with 1900 over $685.
100000. Thus the growth in exports Of
manufactures in the decade following
1890 was more than that of the full
century preceding that, year.
But where does Uncle Sam send all
this stuff? Of the S403, 900, 900 worth
Of manufactures exported in 1902
considerably less than the exports Of
1900 practically one-half, or s197 ,000,-
900 in value went to Europe; one
fourth, or 500, 900, to North Amer
lea other than the United States; one
sixth to Asia and Oceania while the
remainder was divided between South
America and Africa Considering the
distribution by countries, it may be
said that $10O,O00,000, or one-fourth Of
the total, went to the United King
dom; $54,0OO,O00 to British North
America; $3O,O00,000 to Germany; $685.
100000 to Mexico; $23,oOO,O0O each to
Australasia and China; $22O00,000 to
the Netherlands, and 100000 to
France. One especially interesting fact
is that one-half of the total exporta-
ton of manufactures in 1902 went to
British territory; $100,000,000 to the
United Kingdom alone, and another
$100, 900, 900 to her colonies, Canada,
Australasia, British Africa, the East
and West Indies.
Three great facts are emphasized by
the above figures: First, the rapid
growth in the production of manufac-
lures, which has placed the United
States at the head of the worlds list
of manufacturing nations. Second, the
power to produce far beyond the de-
mands of the home population. And
third, the evidence of an ability to
compete i'll the worlds markets, which
evidence is supplied by the rapid
growth in exports of manufactures.
The following ten articles or classes
formed about 80 per cent. Of the total
manufactures exported in 1902: Paper
and it's manufactures, s7,312030; par
affir, $8,858,8t4 wood Manufactures.
S11, 617 500; chemicals, ETC., s12. 141 oil;
agricultural implements $162S6, 740:

fined, $50, 218 ,004; iron and steel manu-
features, $9S, .562. MAX OWEN.

said: "$9,498, 100000 amt so bad"
And JOhnny's hand shook as he took
the paper, and his voice trembled SO
that Uncle Sam could scarcely under
stand the totals which Johnny gave Of
S4,263, 100000. And, France had taken
back seat, surely, and was almost
ashamed to come forward with only
$4,000, 100000 to her credit; while Ger-
many, who had passed France in the
race, and had crept up on England,
didn't make much of a showing by the
side of Uncle Sans figures, for she
could only claim $3,357 100000 as the
total Of her manufactures. 1t set those
countries to thinking, however, and
they have been rushing their commits
sions over here in desperate endeavor
to discover how Uncle Sam did it, And
Uncle Sam cOurteousy gives all the in
formation he can and just keeps busy
in increasing his lead in the worlds
race of manufactures.
The growth of manufactures in the
United States has occurred chiefly in
the last 20 years Stated in round
terms, the census figures of the gross
value of manufactures in the United
States are: For 1850, $1,000, 900 900:
1860, 81 900 900, 900; 1870, $4,000, 900 ,OOO;l
1880, s5,OOO,OOO, 900; 1890, $4,000, 900 OOO;I
1900, $4,000 900, 900, the increase in the
20 years from 1880 to 1900 being much
greater than that of the century pre-
ceding 1880.

duction of manufactures in the United
States a production far in excess Of

with its sickening flicker Gradu-
ally this became more intense. Then
there was a glare as if the universe
had burst into flame The hills
seemed to rock in the explosion
which followed Those who grow
frightened at the puny manifesta-
lions of nature in a northern thun-
derstorm, cannot afford to cavil at
an apparent extravaganza of Ian
guage essential to a word picture Of
tropical hurricane.
AS night came on the storm in
creased in fury. They gave Vim
cent and Pence up as lost, and never
expected to see them alive again.
All night long they crouched under
the ledge of rock; wet and hungry
and sad at heart. The crash of fall
ing timber, the rumble of tumbling
rocks, the incessant reverberation of
thunder, the flashing of the rain, and
the spectacle of sky afame with
writing skein of lightning made an
impression on their minds never to
be effaced.
But at five o'clock there was a
lull in the storm. There was a faint
CLEAN of the dawn of day. Nature
mustered her forces for one more
terrific blast. When exhausted, the
light broke through the clouds. AS
by magic the hurricane was over.
The wind died to refreshing
breeze. Of sudden, the foliage on
the ridges across the bay was radi-
ant with sunshine.
Sidney and Mr.. Kent came from
behind the sheltering rock. They pre-
sented a sorry sight. Their duck
suits were streaked with mud and
their faces tense and drawn by ex-
element and lack of sleep. They
washed their hands and faces in the
lake, and then climbed the ridge,
where they obtained an unbroken
view of the bay. To their delight
they saw the figures OF four men
on the stone pier. Sidney waved his
hat and was greeted by an answer
ing signal. The people of the bunga-
low shouted across the water, and
Sidney and Mr.. Kent yelled in re-
turn. Mr.. Morton, Mr.. Carmody and
his companions speedily built and
launched new raft and were soon
rowing to the relief of the missing
| ones.
Where are Pence and Vincent ?"
shouted Mr.. Morton, as the raft
neared the shore
They did not RETURN" said Sid
ney. Il am afraid they were lost in
the storm"
Sidney would not listen to the
proposition that he return with Mr..
Kent to the bungalow. Though wet
and hungry, he joined Mr.. Morton
and plunged into the forest to find
the missing men, dead or alive. He
was glad to learn that the bungalow
had survived the hurricane with
small damage, and that none of the
occupants were injured

His BLESSING.

A young man, at the risk of his
life, saved beautiful young girl
from drowning. Her grateful father
seized the rescuer of his daughter by
the hand and with a voice tremulous
with emotion, said: ''Noble youth, to
you [ am indebted for everything
that makes life dear to me. Which
reward will you take-$4O,0OO or the
hand of my daughter?"
III take the daughter" replied the
heroic rescuer, thinking thereby to
get both the girl and the money.
"You have well chosen" replied the
grateful father. II could not have
given you the $4,000 just yet, any
how, as I am a poor editor, but my
daughter is yours for life. Take her
and be happy. Heaven bless you, my
children.-N. Y. Times,

most people are as dry as basket of

When Uncle Sam and Columbia set
up housekeeping the center of popu-
latiOn was in Maryland, mead the head
of Chesapeake bay. In 20 years they
found it necessary to sail across the
bay and go a good bit west of Balti-

lastly turned towards the setting SUM-
In 1920 they stopped amidst fair Vir-
ginia's fertile fields, but as the hardy
the westward, Uncle Sam and Columbia
in 1880 found themselves in West Vir-
ginia. 1t took them 40 years to cross
the state and get into Ohio, where they
stayed 20 years, when Indiana gave
them welcome and there they may still
be found, with the great family around
them and they exactly in the center.
Uncle Sam has always been good
farmer, but it was not until 1850 that
he began to keep account Of his crops
Then he found if he went down into
Ohio near the Ohio river he would be
exactly in the center of his cultivated
fields, his bearing orchards and his
stock-filled meadows. He had to shift
his position in 1860 to the western
part Of the state and then in 1870 he
took trip to the south. In 1880, still
further attracted by the awakened
agricultural activity in his southern
fields, he stepped over into Kentucky,
where he made stay of ten years
when, travelling in a westerly direc-
ton, but still dipping southwark, he
reached southern Indiana, and at the
present time he may be found in Illi-
nois, down on the Wabash" with
granaries and barns on every hand full
and enough to spare for his neighbors
across the waters.
But it is not Uncle Sam, the family
man, or Uncle Sam, the farmer, whom
we are specially interested in at the
present time, but Uncle Sam, the
bustling, rushing, wealthy manufac-
turer The hum of factory wheels has
always had a peculiar fascination for
him. Years ago, in 1850, when the
center of manufactures of the United
States was to the northwest of Har-
risburg in Pennsylvania, he was just
a little fellow in the manufacturing
world, and his neighbors in England,
France and Germany didn't take much
notice of him. But Uncle Sam just
kept busy in his workshops and mills
and factories. He was too busy to
talk, but when his clerks in 1860 got
W CiOSluS up CuS OOOhO LII CuO OC-
cade and making out the totals Eng
land began to open her eyes, France
looked anxious and Germany positively
looked scared. The following figures
tell the reason why: Value of manu-
features in United States, $1,907 ,000,-
900; in Germany, $1,995, 000000; in
France, 81 ,092, 100000 in United King
dom, S2,8OS ,0O0,0 900. But Uncle Sam
was too busy to take much notice of
his competitors. He rolled up his
sleeves a little higher, put on more
steam, geared up his machines little
higher, spit on his hands and NUT
tered: 81 can do better than that
Just let me show them how"
And the hum of wheels and the din
of the workshops increased. New
plants were started here and there;
factories sprang UP like mushrooms in
a night. Pennsylvania and Ohio kept
the centers of these activities during
all the years as they rolled by, because
of their coal mines, and gas and oil
wells. And in 1894 Uncle Sam, as he

A Scotch Agreement.

A tourist lately while up shooting
in Scotland came upon an old couple
ON country road who evidently were
having high words. Thinking he
might pacify them he asked them
why they had not sense enough to
agree.

the old man. "The fact is we're

"And how's that?" said the visitor,
a little surprised.

The Information Bureau.

Late one evening very much fus-

hand and an overcoat in the other,
dashed up to the ticket window of a
suburban railroad station and ex-
citedly asked:
"Will you kindly tell me what time
the last train will leave this placer"
The ticket agent looked inquisi-
lively out at his questioner for a
minute, smiled, and replied:
My dear sir, you will never live
TO see the last train leave this place"
