we are told that the secret of per-
petual youth lies In the knowledge OF
knowing how to produce the greatest
possible results with the least expendi-

waste so much of their strength IN
fretting and worrying. Doing deliber-
ately what is to be done will save val

much denotes nervous temperament
capable of wearing itself out without
having accomplished much in the way
of good results.

THE ETHICS OF EXPOSURE.

The vigilance of the daily press is in
the expressed opinion Of Cardinal Glib
hons the greatest preventive of corrup-
ton. Nothing that men prize is given
greater value than reputation and a
fearless press that refuses to permit
false regulations to flourish in bust
ness or politics. Is the best safeguard
of the public. 1T may not be good
theology" the cardinal continues, at
may not be good ethics, but it is GER
tainly good common sense and very
good moral element that the fear, the
dread Of exposure in the public press
keeps a man sticking close to the path
OF rectitude, who otherwise would stray
off into the byways Of personal graft"
But there Is a danger connected with
publicity that neither the press nor the
cardinal should fail to regard. Just at
present w. are flooded with a literature
OF exposure. In most Of this the truth
OF its rev,.lat lions Is its complete justi-
fication and Its authors have done the
public an excellent and undeniable SER
vice, There is always danger. however,
that exposure will become popular for
SENSATIONS sake and degenerate into
scandal raongering. People are prone
to read the sensational first and the
demand for sensation too often is sup
Piled by those ignorant Of the pur-
poses and proprieties of publicity. The
publicist who has regulations and
prospects in his power needs be sincere.
charitabl, and essentially honest, as
well as bold.
But the cardinal is right. Fear of
newspaper exposure is a preventive of
crime ani scoundrelisn and even petty
misdeme,anor. The man, who pays a
fine In the police court is generally
not so much exercised over his finan-
ciaI loss or his own turpitude as over
the appe arance Of his name in the po-
lice court news. The scheming politi-
clan, the. crooked insurance company,
the man with graft breads the news
paper that prints the facts as they are.
Perhaps exposure does not make him
q better, man-that is not the main
/, purpose Of exposure-but it protects
the public. which is zone Of the vital
purposes of publicity.
Let us tell the truth, but let US take
care that publicity does not become
fad or exposure become business.
There is narrow line between pub
licity and scandal. Let us be careful
to remain on the right side. And let
us not lose sight Of the fact that while
publicity is the penalty Of the knave it
is an honest mans due.

JULY IN IOWA.

Lf1anIlpLOI CnfOnlCle.J
July in Iowa means, or should mean,
a hot and dry month. With little rain
and much sunshine the usual verdant
appearance Of the state is changed to
one dusty heat. Save that it be brok-
en- by the waving fields of corn the
agricultural district is turning to a
golden yellow. Broad fields of oats,
rye, wheat and barley are ready for
their harvesting. The green grass is
cured to make good hay. Most of the
flowers of the spring are gone and in
their place are the golden rod and yell
low weeds. Yet with all it's change
country presents peculiarly attractive
appearance just now. To the close
observer there is world of satisfac-
ton in noting how rapidly every sign
of vegetable life has grown. Corn
fields which two weeks ago were only
few inches in height, now stand a
full five feet in height with small
punches Of red silk already showing
where the ear is to be. The fields of
shocked oats are proof positive that
harvest has commenced. The univer-
sal symptoms of prosperity which are
so evident in Iowa at this time of the
year make it pleasure indeed to be
an 1owan and to see these things.
