LIitI8tOn's EIOQusnCe

The following is one Of the many
fine passages in the speech Of Mar
tin w Littleton, nominating Park
er:
There is much talk of twisting
tendencies in the race of life; Of
running out of breath toward the
open grave. The old and honored
way is still the best. be not 50
strenuous as to strain yourself, yet
notso simple as to fallasleep. There
is much said by those who sit on
cushioned chairs about towards
and weaklings in the nations life.
The sun burnt farmer is Just as
brave as the star-erowned soldier.
The man of natural peace is a hero
hundred times to where the man
of artificial war is a hero once.
Some how of late the atmosphere of
our national life is filled with
spray of blood; some how the march
Of progress sounds of hammered
steel; some how, although the sun
light of peace is all about us, there
is now and then the gleam of bay
onets in its radiant fire, and a fash
of swords in its silver beams; some
how, s'though the constitution is
still ] force, there is a sense Of
failing power and growing disre-
spect which makes us feel that the
venerable old man, so to speak, is
halt and blind with years and bur
dens the strenuous household of
his grandchildren. Some how at
times there runs a sort of shock
right down to the foundations of
this republic which makes the
structure tremble, and all the coun-
try panses and listens and then re-
turns to work.
Some how. although the future
welcomes us, il does so with
mailed hand; some how, although
you canpot put your finger on the
cause, there is a universal fear; the
mother watching while her child
rem sleep, mods and then she hears
the bugle call, the tramp of sol
diers, aud, staring in the darkness
Of a cream, she sees the rigid up
turned face. -
"The toilcr turning all his time
and sinew to gain which Others get
begins TO doubt that the govern
ment is just. TIE man of means,
who puts il out in the active cur
rents Of the tide and sees the peril
of his doubt and the governments
compromise with both, begins 10
feel that il is better boarded than
employed. ="

ADVANTAGES OF

are so apparent that we are almost
ashamed to talk about them. They
stick right out like the nose of your
face, but, as Marcus Aurelius
might have said, if he had thought
Of it, IF a man blow not his own
horn, the same it shall not be
blowed." And our Office boy says
he'll be blowed if he can see why
we should hide our light under a
half bushel.
Ro to save argument we are will
ing TO admit that there is no light
that even approaches the electric
light in quantity of light radiated
all around the room.
The quality of the light you can
see for yourself. Electric lights
give strong, clear, vivid write
light. That is what is demanded
today, pure, white light and plenty
of IT.
If our points are not clear to you
it is undoubtedly due to the fact
that yonr light is poor. If you
will put in full equipment Of cleo
trio lighes the whole subject will be
made beautifully luminous and we
will have. peace in the family.

Chicago, Oct. 24.-That a substan-
tial valuation is placed upon charac-

serted by j. Harry Tregoe of Balti-

Association of Credit Men at the
monthly meeting of the organization.
THE men with positions TO give

shrewd men who can obtain results
without good explanations he said.
Character is a modern commercial
assest of rapidly increasing impor-
tance.
'sThe greatest evil in the country
today is commercialism. There is
rapid. almost insane desire to make
money fast. Young men thrown into
the large cities without capital. pos
sessed of the ambition created in a
good home, see the swirl of city life
and attempt to get into it. to emulate
the men of fast lives. The inevitable
