The Doctrine OF Self Help.

For a number Of years past this
land has been flooded with class OF
literature urging the readers to pin
their faith during sickness. discourage
ment and poverty upon something be-
sides religion and the tried and ap-
proved rules for seeking health, con-
tentment and progress. The pr0mot-
ers Of this literature and the methods
advocated therein assume that in the
average man and woman Of today the
will is In state of decadence, a strange
assumption with regard to people
where personal power is supposed tn
be strongly cultivated. The prevalence
of this new teaching, for new it is in
its application at least, is evidence that
many worthy people are distressed
about their ways of handling them
selves, of getting on in the world. and
seek help from without.
In default Of outside help through
religious faith or from natural moral
guides the weak soul. which means sim
ply the undeveloped and undisciplined
person, conscious of imperfections, may
resort to auto hypnotism or self disci.
pline, self control and self help with full
confidence that success will follow per.
sistent effort. Self made people are
not the product Of resolutions within
but Of battles without. Any trial. any
prolonged effort to do something worth
while, strengthens the will power. Ev'
cry one has a reserve of subconscious
power which is never appreciated un-
til It is put to q severe test. The Sec
ond struggle is won through with
amazing ease, and with that little cap
ital of confidence the subject can con
tinue the effort and make sure prog.
reSs.
The average parent or teacher is a
hypnotist without laying claim to spe
cial powers. Any exercise Of personal
moral power to buoy up and influence
others is hypnotism, and the best hyp
notists are those natural guides and
teachers who are in daily contact with
their subjects and alive to their weak
points. What every individual needs
is to be led until able to walk alone
and then left to paddle his or her OWL
canoe. Lies battles are not to be
Stunned, but tackled bravely. The
soul must fight 1t out alone with faith
and patience There IL no short cut
| to health or happiness or wealth. and
no ''ism," whatever its name or how
| ever plausible its argument, can b
| trusted to work out salvation. Our

4 Question Of Bread In Manehuris.
The truism that ian army travels on
its belly" has been exemplified by the
long halt Of the Japs and Russians in
the vicinity Of Mukden. Possession Of
Mukden means nothing to either COM

tance in itself. The north could have
had Petersburg any time in 1862 or
ls68 and held It. 1t was important in
1884 and 1885 because it was link in

same length leading from the bend
north to kim. Leading north from
the Yalu- Mukden road there are two
roads to Kizin. The possession Of one
Of these roads By the laps in force big

walton for Kuropatkin's army.
The extreme slowness Of all the op-
eratfons Of Kuropatkin and Oyama
after the battle Of Liaoyang goes to
chow that both generals have been
maneuvering On the tanks OF Mukden
to control these roads, which mean
bread, or hunger to the. Russians. On
the other hand. with those roads in bis
arm control Kuropatkin can make a
stab ct the japanese bread line from

CALICO SHIRTWAIST SUITS.
Very Dainty and to Be Highly Recon-
mended If One Can Face
Laundry Bills.

There are shirt waist suits this year
made of calico of the variety which
comes at considerably less than ten
cents yard. They are very dainty, and
If one can face the laundry bills with
out embarrassment they are to be highly
recommended for the summer wardrobe.
Calico comes in buff, brown, blue and
pink, and of course there are cream
colored calicos and ginghams of cheap
grade closely related to the calico
family.
Five pretty shirtwaist suit patterns
are suitable for any material. One has
the blouse waist fastened invisibly and
trimmed with little groups of wash crys-
tai buttons. The skirt is many gored
and trimmed with ripple round the
foot, with the top of the ripple trimmed
with buttons and wash ribbon.
Another is the surprise waist, and this
could be carried out in lawn, chiffon,
taffeta and all the other nicer materi-
ais. 1t folds across the front, and is
trimmed with shirred ribbon design.
The skirt is laid in tiny gathers at the
belt, while the foot is trimmed with a
more elaborate design in shirred ribbon.
Three shirt waist suits are made, re-
spectively, with yoke and panel front;
with skirt into which fans are intro
duced and with skirt built plain on
the hips and with flare round the foot.
All three have foot trimmings such as
stitching, braid, bands or wrought de-
signs, and there are shirt waist suits
which are made with the redingote in
view. They are plain, and designed to
be worn with redingote.

In it's editorial on the death of
the late Col. Colville, of the First
Minnesota, the Chicago Tribune
says: The reply of Col. Colville
should be given place among the
sayings of great Americans, 1.-THE
First Minnesota will hold it's posi-
tion even if it has to load with
trousers buttons" A correspon-
dent corrected the paper next day
saying the colonel must have used
the word pants instead of 'trous-
ers." Trousers would sound too
genteel and effeminate-but the word
pants will give the right force and
ring to the saying, and would be
the word most naturally used by
the soldier at this supreme and
critical moment when the fate of the
nation hung in the balance.

Wilson is one of the conspicuous VIC
Tins CT the persistent social gossips.
Mr.. Wilson lost his wife some 13 years
ago, and it is doubtful if he has ever
given single thought to remarriage.
This does not prevent the periodical
appearance of the newspaper para
graph stating that the secretary is
about to marry a lady who is various
ly described as school teacher in his
own state of Iowa, a middle-aged clerk
in his department, or a charming wild
ow in society.
Mr.. Wilson has long since given up
the idea of suppressing this sort Of
gossip, and has resigned himself to the
fate of being talked about, no matter
how distasteful it is. The fact is, the
secretary is too busy with the affairs
of his department, and his mind is so
engrossed with plans for the advance
ment Of agriculture and the betterment
of the condition of farmers, that he
has little or no time to give to the
lighter and more personal affairs of
life. He is more diligent in seeking an
effective enemy of the boil weevil or in
the inoculation, Of sails to make them
more productive than he is in the fair
sex or in the quest of wife. .
Attorney General Moody, the bache-
lor member of the presidents cabinet.
is another target for Dame Rumor's
shafts. Mr.. Moody has been too busy
all his life building up reputation in
the law to give much thought to seek
ing 4 partner for life. The accommo-
dating social gossips of the city, how
ever, have settled his fate for him, if
they are to be believed, and have him
engaged to marry charming widow
in Boston, who is conducting very
prosperous millinery establishment.
They declare that the lady, highly edu-
Gated and charming as she is cares
nothing for society, and is particularly
Indifferent to official society, and
therefore has declined to become Mrs.
Moody as long as Mr.. Moody remains
in the government service. When he
retires, however, it is declared that
one of his first moves will be to take
the Boston widow into partnership for
life and then enter upon the practice
of law at the Hub.

and propagating this important food
fish was seriously retarded this spring.
The low temperature of the waters
produced by the continued cold
weather interfered with spawning and
then the fishing season opened with
tremendous onslaughts by fishermen.
Mr.. bowers reports that instead of
taking hundreds of millions of shad
eggs, as the commission has been able
will be lucky to obtain 40,0O0,000 eggs
this year.
Only dwellers along the Atlantic
coast appreciate to the full this splen-
did fish. The season begins early in
Florida and works up along the coast,
reaching it's height when the Susque-
hanna and Delaware rivers are
reached. The first shad in the market
is a sure harbinger of spring, and is
welcomed as joyfully as the spring
flowers in the hills. With the coming
of warm days the shad leave their
winter haunts and seek the waters of
the bays and rivers. Their destination
is the shallow depths of the fresh wa
ter rivers, where their eggs will quick
ly ripen. The taking of the fish by
millions in nets interferes with the run
and the roe shad that have gotten
through and reached the spawning
beds have not produced because the
temperature Of the water has been so
low.
The government considers the prop
agation of the shad so important that
an annual appropriation of $250,00O is
made for the collection of the shad
eggs. Fishermen are paid $40 per mil
lion for the eggs, but the outlay this
year will be very limited. The end Of
the season comes about May 20, and
the prospect is that the government
will have mighty few shad fry to plant
In the coast rivers this year. The re-
suit of the scarcity will be felt three
or fou: years from now.

Destroy the young weeds that are

your neighbor's property.
If your advertising sign is old
and faded, take it down. or repaint
it.
Resolve never to throw paper on
the streets.
Take all dandelions out of your

experience as chairman of the house

one item of extravaganza in govern
ment affairs is the printing of docu-
ments and reports that are of COM
paratively limited interest. He has
been convinced that some of the most
ornate specimens of the printers and
engravers' art that are turned out of
the government printing Office really
should never have been authorized,
and their costly production is a waste
of public money.
The Daughters of the American Rev.
olution secured a national charter in
1896 which provides that it shall make
a report to the secretary of the Smith
sonian institution, and that the Sec
retary shall communicate to congress
such portions of the report as may be
of national interest. So far the secre-
tary has assumed that the voluminous
annual reports of this society are all
of national interest, and they have
been sent bodily to congress and print
ed at public expense. A review of the
report makes it difficult to understand
what national interest there can be in
the major part e such document
Speaker Cannon, with this expensive
report in view, has Of late years per-
sistently opposed the granting of ma
tional charters to any society unless
the act contained provision specific
ally declaring that the organization
shall in no manner whatever become q
charge upon the United States treas
ury. His insistence on this restriction
has proven damper to number of
societies seeking charter at the hands
Of congress which would permit the
publication Of their reports by the gov
ernment.

lishment of Presbyterian cathedral

rumor. It is suggested that if. the
matter is taken up by the Presbyteri-
an general assembly Judge Harlan will
be requested to take charge of the

will relinquish his place on the bench
and devote all his energies to the
building of the cathedral.
Recently the judge was asked con-
cerniag the report that he would leave
the bench for the purpose of further
ing the Presbyterian cathedral move
ment. He declared that he was not in
position to discuss the matter, and
whatever was done would depend upon
the action of the general assembly. He
announced his great interest in this
movement and his willingness to as
sumo a large share of the burden Of
raising the funds, but he was not pre-
pared to say whether he would leave
the supreme bench for the purpose Of
devoting all his time to the matter.

He has been a member Of the supreme
bench for % years, and still does his
full share of it's work. He is physical
ly in the finest condition and demon
strated only a few weeks ago that he
was formidable opponent for any
one to meet on the golf links. He took
part in a golf competition and played
IS holes over a rough, hilly course,
and won the match for his club, the
Chevy Chase Golf club, by defeating
his opponent on the eighteenth green.
He has made some of the most diff
cult strokes ever played on the Chevy
Chase links, and it is no unusual thing
for him to walk from his home to the
links, a distance of four or five miles.
The judge attributes his fine physical
condition to his indulgence in this
