MAY KILL CANAL BILL.
The Conferees of the Two Houses Are
Unable to Agree.

washington, March 3.-At a final
meeting of the conferees on the Pan
anna canal bill after the senate con-
ferees had reported verbally the ina
bilitv of the representatives of the
two houses to get together and were
sent back to try again, the futility of
attempting a compromise was ad-

ask for their discharge. If this deci-

and it is the general impression that
it will be, the effect will be to kill

In the Cheerinu.Up Business.

inquired what good fortune had befallen
him that made him look so happy. .'The
cheering-up business? Well, I don't
don't know what sort of business that
may be, but judging from your looks, it
must be a paying one. What do you do?
How do you run it? Got any capital,
eh?' Capital ha, ha, ha! Good, like
that idea. Why, my dear fellow, my
paid-up capital is practically limitless. 1t
cannot be computed in terms of dollars
and cents, and the business is so simple
that it runs itself. All I have to do is to
look cheerful and give smile and a
hearty greeting to every one with whom
1 am on speaking terms. Along with
this l take short views of life as sgd
ney Smith recommended. 1 don't like
to look too far ahead and plan for what
may never happen. You have no idea
what a saving of energy l find in this
method. The fact is, my new business
has helped my old business so much that
it's returns for the last six months are %
per cent more than they were the prevt-

The good are half bad and the bad are half
good.
Not the rich and the poor, for to count mans

You must first know the state of his conscience

Not the humble and proud, for in life's little

Who puts on vain airs is not counted a man.
Not the happy and sad, for the swift-hying
years
Bring each man his laughter and each man his
tears
No; the two kinds of people earth
Are the people who lift and the people who
lean.
Wherever you 60, you will find the worlds
Are always divided in just these two classes.
And oddly enough, you will find, too, l ween,
There is only litter to twenty who lean.
