The Tariff Habit.

GOOD MANNERS.

Some people make the mistake of
thinking that brains are everything.
A man may have the best set of
brains in the county, but if he hasn't
the manners of gentleman nobody
is going to appreciate him.
There is no capital and equipment
any young man can have that will
pay him better than good manners.
There is no possible calling for
which this does not the better fit
him. If he has brains the world
owes him something, but unless he
has good manners he will nave a
hard time collecting it.
Your manner is the outward indi-
cation of what you are within in the
estimate of most people, and if the
manner is disagreeable few will take
the trouble to examine you any fur
Their. Maybe we are too apt to re-
gard manners as thin veneer. The
pleasant smile, the spirit of helpful
ness, the ready sacrifice are not of
the exterior alone. A good manner,
like the good nature that lies back of
it, is not a thing to be thrown on and
off like a dress coat. 1t is of the
man as the aroma is of the rose.
The man of good manners is at a
tremendous advantage. He can win
favor and fortune under circum-
stances where the loose hammered
and slovenly-spirited is left to grum-
BILE in failure and curse his ill luck"
Carelessness in dress and personal
appearance amounts to bad manners.
LOunging and utidy habits are an
other form of bad manners. Profane
and unclean speech is still another
form. These defects never gained
the respect of single person and
never will. On the contrary, they
wear away your respect of self and
demean you in your own eyes. They
can be overcome only by constant
watchfulness, not by sporadic efforts
when you want to "show off,"
A good manner is good capital in
any business. 1t attracts friends
and good fortune. 1t is a wellspring
of well wishes. 1t creates about a |
man an atmosphere in which "luck"
likes to linger.

PEOPLE CAPABLE OF
SELF-GOVERNMENT.

"Only the federal government can
save u.s." is the burden of the cry of
a pessimistic citizen who has been
studying the rise of the boss system
in American municipalities.
1t will be a sorry day for America
when it shall be confessed that the
people are not capable of ruling
themselves. That day will not come.
This is the age of revelations.
Newspapers, magazines and reform
ers are stirring up the animals and
revealing conditions that are horri-
flying and calculated to make the
pessimistic and weakened breth-
rem believe that the end is near.
But there is a bright side. The
light that is being turned on graft
and boodling is also bringing into
prominence honest men whose vir-
tues shine as they never shone be-
fore. And they are everywhere.
They are an army. They have cOur-
age and good impulses. The are
willing to make sacrifices, to endure
humiliation and scathing criticism,
to work without hope of personal re-
ward, and all for the grand cause of
liberty and civic regeneration.
In every community, be it a ham,
let or a city of the first class, there
are more honest men than scoun-
drels-ten to one-yes, a hundred
to one. The majority may be en-
trenched in the public offices, be
possessed of wealth and power to re-
ward or punish those who aid or OPP
pose them.
But there is no doubt, and there
never has been a doubt, that right
will triumph and wrong will be put
to flight. No boss who ever lived
was stronger than the honest people.
The revelations of the past year
means the mapping out of CAM
paign. They cut out the work.
They show what there is to be done.
And somewhere, for every position
held by a weak or dishonest man,
there is waiting a strong and honest
person to fill it.
The people are awakening. They
are learning their strength. They
are discovering how to fight and the
need of fighting. No federal inter-
ference or instructions are needed in
the government of American cities.
Philadelphia, New York and Gin
cinnati are recent examples of that
fact.

Colophon was city of ancient Ionla,
nine miles north of Ephesus, and near
the sea. 1t was said to be the birth
place of Homer, and near it was IA

planned by Strabo as arising from
belief that the cavalry of Colophon was

JEWISH HUMOR.
It's Flavor of bitterness and Its SAT-
ire of Judaism.

Ire VI OuuhAAHs
Renan said of the Jews, "The Sem
itic people are almost entirely without
the power to laugh" Surely had he
looked for traces of Jewish humor in
the light which Heine casts back Upon
its dark tradition he would never have
made so sweeping a statement. For
eight years Heine lay upon his mat
treSs grave" in Paris suffering eXcru-
ciating agony. He deserved, he said,
to have awarded to him "the grand
medals of pain and misery" Leopold
Zunz said almost the same words Of
the whole Hebrew people, "If there are
ranks in suffering, Israel takes prece-
dence of all the nations" The humor
of Israel is favored with bitterness and
plays round the greater subjects of
thought and of speculation; plays like
the humor of man in pain.
Listen to the lament of a satirist
born at Aries in 1887 who finds the
works of the Jewish law an intolerable
burden and seems to have come, like
Heine, to the bitter conclusion that
Judaism is not a religion, it is mis-
fOrtune:"
oh, hapless sire, distraught with cares,
Whose wife to him male children bears,
For all of them, or rich or poor,
Have only suffering to endure.
This Is caused by the Jewish creed,
Whose yoke is hard TO bear indeed.
Its many laws and regulations
Which are unknown to other nations
Every Hebrew must observe
With watchful eye and straining nerve:
Fen though he shares in public functions,
He still must follow their injunctions
The Bible is not half enough;
CLOSES there are and other stuff
In which he erudite must be,
Especially in theology,
In all the Talmud may relate,
In authors quarrels and debate,
In things particularly small,
OF no significance at all.
One more medieval quotation, this
time from the pen of Barcelona Jew.
The lines can hardly perhaps be called
humorous, but they Illustrate with a
certain terse comedy the great value
set by the race upon three things
money, knowledge and domestic hap
piness. If man has none of them the
poet has no better advice to give him
than to hold his tongue or to hang him
self:
What is the most useful thing to any
man in life?
knowledge or wealth or a good and low
ing wife.
But if none of these commodities man has
ever got
Then by keeping golden silence he might
improve his lot.
And if he cannot do so, that poor and hap
less knave,
Then let him go away at once and dig
himself a grave.
On his deathbed Heine made his last
joke, and it is typically Jewish RE
viewing his by no means irreproacha-
BILE past" he hoped that God might for
give him, "for c'est son metier"-(that Is
his trade). Another story illustrates
yet more perfectly the bitter humor of
the Jew. 1t is the story of dying
rabbi "who had been all his lifetime
extremely religious, but had likewise
always suffered much want and mis-
cry. DO you know he said to those
in the sickroom, If after all the sad ex-
periences l have had in the past there
is no future life | shall be greatly
