certain IL is the sum Oh the
experience of the libertines Of
all the ages. 8
The wages of sin"-of viola
ting the law of temperance and
decency-"is DEATH 1t is a
fact in .he eternal constitution
of things. 1t was fact before
it was written down in the Bible,
nor. would it have been any the
less of the fact had it never. been
thus written.
Prudence--1 am speaking of
nothing higher just now--says:
Make the most of this life;"
and every healthy instinct of
our, humanity adds, 'Be happy"
but how, are you going to be
happy, if, being man, you
sink yonr man nature into that
OF the beast, and live, not for
reason and virtue, but for sensu-
atty and passion?
For 4 little while. it is true,
you may find in your mad indul.
gence d sort of pleasure; but
long before you shall have
reached life's prime you will be
that most miserable and most
pathetic of all things-.-a burnt
out debauche, the driveling,
dropping wreck of what you
ought to have been.
This is not preaching. 1t is
simply plain truth--as million
OF men aud women, when too
late, have found out.
! To be happy in this world, in
the only, sense in which it pays
to be happy, We must ever con
serve our self-respeCt as ration
al human beings.
/ The young man who cannot
look his pure minded mother in
! the face without blushing to
think Of the life be is. leading is
not making the most Of this
world. Let him not for mo-
ment think that he is.
The husband and father who,
upon going home at night, can
not kiss his wife without feeling
that his lips are are protana
ton 10 her, or take his innocent
child in his arms without the
. thought that those arms are be-
smirching the little ones puri,
ty, is not making the most Of
life
He may think that be is, but
! he is destined later on to be
most cruelty disenchanted.
1t is perfectly true that We
know but little of whats
above but this much we do
know, that while "below" we
must live soberly and. decently
if we would live long and hap
PLY.
The epicureanism which, be
cause it cannot pluck out the
heart Of LIES mystery, resigns
itself to the root Of appetite and
tie orgies Of passion, is nothing
less than simon.pure foolish
ness.
! 1t is worse than foolishpess-
it is suicide.
BE manly! That is the only
creed. It is true that we know
but little of tomorrow, but to-
day be manly. 1t is true that
we know but little of what
above, but while here below
be manly.
No matter how the battle
shall end, while it is ou--stand
by your guns.
Go Prepared.

John II. Manly, a dry goods
merchant, of Bellville, r. l.,

gansett Bay, put in bottle OF
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy for emer,

communication may not be Who'll
ly out OF place:
am young man who has
been honestly trying for four or
five years to 6nd out what to
believe | have heard all kinds
Of preachers, Catholic and
Protestant, but as yet I've
struck nothing that seems to
fill the bill.
The other day, as was look.
ing through magazine, | came
across what seemed to me TO be
the most sensible creed ever
written. Here it is:
LET us indulge the joys we know,
OF music, wine and love;
We're sure OF what we find below,
Uncertain what's above
What do you think of it?
What do / think OF it?
Well, 70 speak broadly, |
think it is creed that no young
man can afford to fool with.
In the first place, it is not an
1 honest creed. 1t does not look
you squarely in the face and
speak out in plain, straight,
forward way, but winks and
! blinks, and talks in the most
uncertain manner imaginable.
! II comes at you with a mask
on.
| Knowing that you naturally
desire to be happy, it talks to
you of 10y when it really
means to bring You wretched,
ness, and nothing but wretch
ednesS.
1t holds up before you the
vision of "love, the fairest of
all the angels of God, when in
reality it is thinking Of lust, the
most loathsome OF ali The devils
that torment and degrade US.
1t would seem TO say to you
something like this: Life is
short and the future is uncer,
tain; therefore, be happy while
the days are passing by" when
it really means that you should
devote your earthly life to the
Wild dissipation which is sure
to make it a living hell.
The creed of which the young
man writes is an old one-as
old as humanity; and in all ages
/ its devotees haye died cursing
/ themselves for having been
foolish enough to believe its
teachings,
There is some truth in the
creed. Wise men have always
realized and bemoaned the limi-
tation of our actual knowledge.
Well does the poet exclaim:
"Beh old, we know not any.

so far. | have struck nothing

if by filling the bill" the young
man means positive knowledge
of man 5 genesis and destiny, he
is night, for the preachers have
no such knowledge to impart.

'ishioner there presses down the
burden Of this 'uniutelligible
world, and before the man who

COLOMBIA TO
USE WIRELESS
CABLE COMPANY'S REQUESTS RE-
FUSED WHEN THE MARCONI
SYSTEM BECAME A POSSIBILITY

BOGOTA, September 27.-The Min
lister of State has made public the de-
mands of the cable company which
asks for a new concession lasting twen-
ty years and the privilege of raising
the tariff. Among the reasons given
for the Governments refusal of this
proposition is that an Italian company
has applied to establish a new system
of wireless telegraphy.
PANAMA September FIT is an
nounced that the cable service to Buena
Ventura will be closed at the end of
September The inspector of telegraphs
has received orders from Bogota to
close the Central and South American
Compauy's offices in this town on the
suspension of the service to Buena
Ventura. If the Government carries
out its threat the company will lose
heavily.
The government in the meantime is
making efforts to establish the Marconi
system of wireless telegraphy between
Panama, Chiriqui, Buena Ventura, Co
Ion, Bocas del Toro and Cartagena 1t
is also reported that the West Indian
and Panama Telegraph Company will
offer to construct cable to Buena
Ventura.

HEROINE IN A
CITY OF DEATH
YOUNG MEXICAN GIRL CONDUCTS
THE MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS IN
THE FEVER STRICKEN LINARES

LINARES (MeXico), September 81
The heroic action of Miss Manuela
Flores, the beautiful eighteen-year-
old daughter of Colonel Mariana
Gomez, Mayor of this city, has at
tracted the attention of President Diaz
and the Mexican Congress, which will
confer signal honor upon Miss Gomez
in recognition of her brave and un-
firing service to the people of this city
during the yellow fever epidemic.
For several weeks she has been Act
ing Mayor of Linares. Surrounded by
dying victims of the terrible disease,
and with her father, the Mayor, lying
at her home stricken with the malady,
she assumed the duties of Mayor and
has capably directed the affairs of the
city. When death entered her own
home she remained at her post of duty.
She saw the population of the city
reduced from $4,000 people to less than
5000 as a result of death and the panic
due to the epidemic. When her asso-
ciates were fleeing to the mountains
to escape the scourge Miss Manuela
was directing and carrying out plans
for improving the sanitary condition
u the CITY anu uSlnS neT utmost Ell
forts to prevent the spread of the dis
ease.
All the city officials We're stricken
with the fever and died. AS they
dropped off one by one Miss Manuela
took UP their respective official duties,
and she is now performing the work
of other officials, as well as that of
Mayor. Miss Manuelas official acts
show she has splendid executive ability
When the fever made its appearance
at Linares she was holding the post
of secretary to her father. He was
among the first to be stricken. The
Governor of the State was notified and
he instructed Miss Manuela to take
charge Of the office pending the Sc
lection of some one to fill the vacancy,
she proved a capable person for the
place, and then came word from the
Governor giving her full power to act
as Mayor of the city.

.SALESGIRL A
RICH COUNTESS
EMPLOYE IN A BROOKLYN STORE
BECOMES BRIDE OF A VERY
WEALTHY ITALIAN NOBLEMAN.

NEW YORK September 27.-
Through her marriage to an Italian
Count with a fortune of $1,S00,OOO,
Emma Moeckel, until recently sales
girl in a Brooklyn department store,
has become the mistress of a castle on
Lake Como Italy To visit the castle
Count Mainardi Romolo Ferreri and
his wife will sail on the Sardegna for
Genoa next Tuesday. In the meantime
they are enjoying their honeymoon in
this city.
The marriage was the result of a
romantic mistake Miss Moeckel had
known a man of the same name, and
when she read in the newspapers that
he had come into his inheritance she
wrote her congratulations. The Count
replied, and after four months cor
respondence he came to Brooklyn to
see her. Then she found it was an
entirely different person from the one
she knew The mistake made no differ
ence, however. and after a brief court
ship the Count and the salesgirl were
married. The Counts democratic
method of choosing his wife is probably
due to his twenty years residence in
| America, where at times he worked as
waiter until he was notified he was
a Count and a millionaire.

BIG DECLINE
IN DOLL TRADE
EXPORTS FROM GERMAN CITY OF
THURGNGIA SHOW A SLUMP TO
MANY PARTS BUT NOT AMERICA

WASHINGTON September 81
What may be taken as a demonstra-
ton of the correctness of President
Roosevelt's race suicide theory has
just been received from the State
Department from Consul General
Hughes, at Coburg, Germany. The
doll trade of most of the world seems
to have gone into a sudden and vio-
lent decline. According to Consul
Hughes, who reviews the situation un-
der the caption, THE doll trade of
Thuringia," the trade with the United
States for the year ending June 30,
1908, amounted to S1,S40,013 out of a
! total export of 1882, 6O7 but Thurin-
gia's trade with the other nations
slumped badly.
England did a very poor doll bust
ness with Thuringia. No demand
seemed to exist for dolls. The cause
of this is hard to tell. Canada did
| somewhat better in the cheap class of
! goods, but even this trade might be
much improved. Australia and other
! British colonies have not ordered any
| thing like the same amount of goods
| as in previous years. Austria Hun
gary may be said to have practically
stopped buying in Thuringia. Switz-
erland, Netherlands and Belgium each
are doing only a small business in
low grade goods. Argentine Republic
has done q small business for years,
which seems to remain about the
same; the same may be said for Bra
zil Cubas trade has not picked up
since the war. The Central American
trade has never been large, and of
late it has fallen off entirely.
The slump is traceable in various ma
lions of the world. French competi-
ton is believed to be responsible in
some cases for the falling off of
! Thuringia's trade.

WAIVED RIGHTS AS A son.
True journalistic Spirit Evinced
by Young Corbin.

Gen. Corbin's son is newspaper
reporter in Washington. The other
day he was sent to the Adiutant
Generals office and found the door
closed against al corners. He
pulled from his pocket 4 card with
his name and the paper he repre-
scented on it, and asked the mes
senger to carry it in. \ moment
later the messenger returned with
the information: Gen. Corbln
says he hasn't time to talk to re-
porters just now, but if his son
Rutherford is outside he will be
glad to seee him." I'm not his
son Rutherford on this occasion, so
I'll just lay for him here as he
comes out" replied the youngster,
determined not to sacrifice the
chance for story" to personal
interview with 1.-The governor.
