About the Land We
Call PRETTY Soon"

1 know a land where the streets are
paved
With the things we meant TO achieve;
1t is walled with the money we meant to
have saved.
And the pleasures for which we grieve
The kind words unspoken. the promises
broken,
And many a coveted boon
Are stored away there in that land
somewhere
The land Of Pretty Soon"
There are uncut jewels. of possible fame.
Lying about in the dust.
And many a noble and lofty aim
Covered with mold and rust
And. oh. this place. while 1t seems so
near,
Is farther away than the moOni
Though our purpose r. e-ir, yet We never
get there
The land of Pretty pon."
II is farther at noon tnl-n II IS at dawn.
Farther at night than at noon;
OH let US beware of that land down
there
The land OF Pretty Soon"

THAT WAS ENOUGH.

cit was on a train going from New
York to Washington" said Albert
Barnes Of Toledo.
Among the passengers were a newly
married couple. who made themselves
known as such to so great an extent
that the occupants of the car began to
make sarcastic remarks about them.
The bride and groom stood the re-
marks for some time, but finally the
latter, who was a man Of tremendous
size, broke out in the following Ian
guage at his tormentors:
Yes, we're married-just married.
We are going 100 miles farther, and are
going to spoon all the way. If you
don't like it you can get out and walk.
She's my violet and I'm her sheItering
oak!'
During the remainder of the journey
this couple was left in peace. Boston

SOME BRIGHT TALES
WORTH REMEMBERING
oRAroRY THAT WON.

Congressman William II. Jackson of
Maryland was engrossed in discussing
with a number of colleagues the de-
cadence Of oratory. Sane people are
not emotional" declared the Congress
man, land the conversational delivery
of a speech carries as much weight
with an intelligent audience as does the
effort Of a declaimer who INDUCES in
brilliant periods with an arm-swinging
accompaniment"
You are right" said a listener, and
your statement reminds me of young
lady who had, two suitors. Both men
had about the same advantages and
prospects. but gossip declared that the
girl would decide in favor Of the man
who was a lawyer, for he knew better
how to present and win his case. Cos
sip erred: the lawyer was rejected.
Later it was learned from a friend in
whom the betrothed had confided the
reasons for her choice.
Harry is convincing, but John is
just as convincing and does not have to
remove his arms every time he wants
to say something. New York Herald.

BE YOUR INDIVIDUAL
SELF, DON 7 INITIATE

Women and children have a great
way of doing things because somebody
else does them, says contributor to
the Philadelphia Inquirer.
You will see Miss Bright Mind bub-
bling over with vivacity She will
say all sorts of clever things, and her
vivacity is becoming. She is little and
slender perhaps and a bit of kitten
ishess now and then rather suits her
style. Some fine day Missa Dull
Headed will run across Miss Bright
Mind and the D. II. will think to her
self: Dear me, how attractive she
makes herself. Why can't do that ?"
So Miss D. II. starts in to be vivacious,
too, and the result is she makes a
lovely monkey of herself, and instead
Of gathering huzzahs of admiration
from the multitudes at large she
gathers in a whole lot of deep pity.
The hat that may look fine on your
neighbor may look dreadful on you.
And manners must be as becoming
as hats. What is food for one stom-
ach is poison for another. and the
gayety that may be charming in one
woman appears absurd in her neigh
Dor.
Very often you will find a thin,
slenderly woman, who tattles eternally
about wanting to be fat. She absorbs
cod liver oil and worries the family
into taking residence at Chestnut Hill
because she would like to gain ten
pounds or little more. After a time
eI,o RI v1I,r
and looks a sight.
Again we have the deluded young
woman who doesn't like the color of
her hair. Miss Brown, across the way.
has lovely red hair and Miss Black
thinks she will have an order of it
herself. When the red hair is finally
acquired Miss Black cannot be recog-
nized by her own mother, and instead
of looking like masterpieces does
Miss Brown-she resembles a carica-
ture.
The best way is to be your own self,
to be your individual self. You have
the framework for type of your own.
Take your individuality as you find it,
touching up the best points and en-
bellishing them, and hiding as best
you can the little failings and foibles
and foolishnesses that are sure to be
lurking around somewhere. Since you
have type of your own. do not go
out and find a type that can't possibly
fit you and then try to palm that off
as your own, for the deception will be
quite plain.
Let out your best thoughts. Learn
to speak softly, to move gracefully, to
have poise and balance-and your in
dividuality will be all right

THE PRINT OF THE SERVINGS.

A politician upon his arrival at one OF
the small towns in North Dakota,
where he was to make a speech the fol-
lowing day. found that the two So
called hotels were crowded to the doors.
Not having telegraphed for accommo-
dations, the politician discovered that
he would have to make shift as best he
could.
He was compelled for that night to
sleep on a wire cot which had only
some blankets and a sheet on il. As
the statesman is a fat man he found
his improvised bed anything but COM

Antietdm Losses Compared
With Those in ManChuFid

Editor The Considering the in
terest awakened by the reports Of the
great battles and the great losses in
the late engagements in Manchuria, il
may be well 70 think little about the
greatest losses in any one days fight
ing in the Civil War at the battle Of
Antietam, September Il, 1852, forty
two years ago to-day
We hear a great deal about the in
tense patriotism Of the japanese and
their willingness to die for their En-
peror. meaning perhaps their country,
and of the extraordinary bravery Of the
Russians. fortified BY their faith il
their 'Ikons"; of the great improve
ment in artillery. such destructive pow
der and the long range rifles OF the m
fantry.
According TO the Russian report the
losses in ten days fighting were 4oVJ
killed and 12.O0O wounded. total OF
$4,000 The Japanese report a total OF
Il. $50 killed and wounded. The reports
are not explicit enough 10 enable Us
10 make fair comparisons as 20 per-
centages of losses. as the number en-
gagged is unknown, but we may redsoh-
ably estimate that there were approx
mately 200. 900 on each side.
At the battle of Antietam probably
every man on the Confederate side was
in action. Estir ~tes vary and there
is no way of arriving at the facts, but
there is no doubt that there we're ap-
prOximately $4,000 men, On the Union
side there was about the same number
certainly not more were engaged
The reports Of losses as 10 the Union
army are very nearly accurate, while
in the Confederate army the reports
are not TO be depended upon, II Cen
eraI McClellan's report is 70 be relied
upon when he says: About 200 OF the
enemys dead were counted and buried
upon the battlefield OF Antietam- . A
portion their dead had previously
been buried by the enemy"

schriver he expected to see the whole
deal exposed, although he did not say
that he was afraid 1t would be. as
Schriver stnted.
Ellen stated that Salisbury. about a
week before his reelection as city ut
torney, approached him and sought his
vote, telling him that he would give
him a second $500 for his support.
This second offer Ellen declared Ire
twice refused. He stated that he never
talked to Salisbury about the way he
would testify before the grand jury;
that he never concluded to vote for the
water deal and that he did not accept
the $500 with corrupt intent.
The prosecutor asked Ellen II he
thought 1t was right for man to go
around offering aldermen 500 to vote
for measure before the council. ooh.
