HAWTHORNE'S WORKS.
The High Standard They Have Sci
For American Literature.

Two things are to be remembered
when HawthorneS name is mentioned.
First, the glory he reflects upon Amer
lean literature. Little has been done
by us in letters or art that is quite of
the highest order except the works Of
Hawthorne These have the clear
promise of perpetuity. The themes are
of supreme and universal moment. He
rises to their meaning and depicts them
in commensurate form. He is not a
preacher to cry aloud. but an artist
who paints, yet not without heart
that throbs In pity and II fancy that
muses. over the wonder of it and will
not suffer the pail of darkness TO hang
over 1t forever That we have in Haw-
thorne an author whose work in these
high fields of thought is crowned with
unimpeachable honor and IS sure of
perpetual remembrance is constant
satisfaction as years go by.
But Hawthorne has a wider claim
upon our gratitude-namely, the fact
that he has set the seal of glorious
achievement in letters upon the moral
laws of our nature. The greatest
things done in literature have been of
this sort. They alone, from Job down,
are remembered and cherished in the
ages. Hawthorne is our only exponent
Of genius in this field, and how superb
ly has he filed it, His message is that
Of Dante and st. Paul and all great
whatever a man does to an
other he does to himself whether 1t be
good or evil. Men will forever dwell
in this truth and will never forget
those gifted souls who see it clearly
and set it forth in perfect forms of lit
erary art-Century.

SETTING THE CLOCK FAST.
A Pleasant Sort of Deception Com
mon to Many People.

1t is a common thing to find the
clocks in nine ont of ten households
either fifteen inmates or half an hour
fast, and should YOU happen to be in a
hurry or mention the fact that you
have to be going you are at once reas-
sured by the fact that you have no
cause to hurry, as the clock is so much
ahead of the time.
Has it ever occurred to you why
clocks are usually put aheadI Some
physicians have said il is due TO lazi-
ness, for it is such a satisfaction to the
lazy man TO find when he has TO get
up at 7 in the morning and strains his
half closed eyes to look at the clock
that it is half an hour fast and he has
so much more time to doze, with the
result that he oversleeps himself any.
how and misses his train or boat.
Said Il matchmaker when asked
about the subject:
Eyes, it is a peculiar thing with most
people to put their clocks fast, and
while there may be some satisfaction
In it when it comes TO doing Il little
longer, there is really no advantage in
ii, for when you wake up say, at and
glance at the clock and it registers half
past g. the fact remains that it is q
half hour fast While this may make
you feel easier, knowing that you still!
have thirty minutes to doze, | confess
/ don't see much advantage in it.
"Why not have the clock right? 1t Is
the same thing in the end.
Suppose railroads were to put this
into practice, how many trains do you
think people would miss thereby? This
putting clocks fast is really only a
pleasant form of deception which peo-
pie like to practice on themselves, but
1t does more harm than good. New

HOSTING ROPES.
The Threads of Wire Upon Which
So Many Lives Daily Depend.

While the longest ropes are used for
hauling purposes, some of the most in.
tereStins GItl in connection with wire
ropes are obtained with their use for
hoisting purposes. Hundreds of thou.
sands of lives are literally each day
hung by small Wire thread as the
men are lowered into and hoisted from
the bowels of the earth. and in many
cases tie only means Of communication
between the surface and the under.
ground workings, which are from a
few feet to a mile in depth, is by q
comparatively small hosting rope.
Think of hanging from the end of Il ca.
BILE only Il few inches in diameter and
mile long, being hoisted at a rate
which is faster than that of the aver.
age railroad train. ana some idea of the
hosting problem can be gained TO
the honor of the wire rope manufacture
ers 1t must be said that very few shaft
accidents are due TO the breaking of
the rope, excepting where the cage is
oyerwound and unwarranted demands
are made upon the rope or which are
II dttapIt " IdlSt ttblolih bll lllt part
of the users of wire rope. No part of
mining plant is more carefully in
spected and watched than the hoisting
rope, and very few mine managers will
take any unnecessary risks in the
hoisting of men. The skill of the wire
rope maker is taxed to the utmost to
provide ropes for hosting from great
depths. To make rope of practicable
size that will be sufficiently flexible
and that Will bear even its own weight
Is no mean problem, for in such cases
the weight Of the roie is often much
more than the material lifted; hence
we have taper rope intended to give a
varying section dependent on the
amount of rope off the drum or recl.--

FAMOUS BATTLE SONGS.
Two Instances Where the Tide Wns
Turned by Singing Them.

There are two instances on record of
battle being won by war song. In
Tie fifth century Germanus. bishop of
Auxerre, and Lupus, bishop of Troyes,
were sent into Britain to refute the
doctrines of rciagius. During their
stay In this island the Picts and Scots
hearing that the Roman legion had
been withdrawn, commenced hostili-
ties and drove the Britons from the
northern to the more southern parts of
the island. Germanus. ut the request
Of the hard pressed islanders. led them
against the picts and Scots, who had
advanced us far as Mold. in Flntshire
The bishop, having been military
commander in his youth. placed his
men In an advantageous position and
then started one of the songs of the
church. This song began Mt the com
menccment of the battle, and so vocif-
erously did the Britons sing the re-
DING with the sound. terrified their en-
emies and caused them TO fee In all di-
rections. This was called the hallelu-
iah victory. The date is fixed by all
historians at \. -. 400.
The second instance occurred on the
9th of November, 1902, when the
French, under Dumouriez, encountered
the Austrians at Jemmapes, in Belgi-
um. The day was going dead against
the French, when Dumouriez ran out
to the front and raised the "Marseil-
laise." Forty thousand voices instantly
took up the chorus, and, inspired by
the magic of the battle song, the
French rallied and fell SO iuriously
battle was completely turned and vic
tory given for defeat. Pearson Week
