Men WHO Make Clubs.

As to social clubs Of men, there are
two classes of membership positive
and the negative. In an organization
Of a thousand members you will find,
probably, nine hundred and ninety
nine negatives and one positive. This
one positive is seldom the president,
but nearly always the treasurer or Sec
rotary. 1t is he who regards the club
as his home, his family, his wife and
children. His whole heart is wrapped
up in it's success. He brings in the
new members and is always on hand
to shoulder burdens which the mega
lives willingly impose upon him. He
never rebels, W protests, neve com
plains. A club fs a community of self.
ish interests, as q rule, and every self
ish negative agrees with every other
selfish negative that such and such 9
man Is the ideal secretary, treasurer
or manager. A good secretary OF
treasurer is seldom promoted; he is tor
useful.-New York Press.

EDITOR Dickinson PREss:-Will you
kindly express Jul thanks to the good
people of Dickinson for the many kind
nesses shown US during our four months
stay at the Dickinson hospital7 for which
institution we bespeak a liberal patron
age. We appreciate the great blessing
it was to have such a place to which our
son could be taken on that lonely night
of March 80. and are grateful for the
very kind treatment we received while
there. We also wish to thank Drs.
Perkins and Stickney, who worked SO
hard and so successfully in the treat
ment OF our son. We regret to say he
has had to have the limb opened in two
places since returning home, his temper
ature running over 1903, but at this time
he is gaining again, and we hope there
will be no more trouble. We shall ever
cherish the memory of all our friends in
Dickinson.

one Of the Cluster.

A man is but a cluster on the great
human grapevine. He begins to dry
up the moment he Is cut OF from his
fellows. There is something in the sol
Marity Of the human race which an
not be accounted for In the sum total
Of all the individuals. Separation from
the mass involves a mighty loss OF
power in the Individual just as there
II q loss Of cohesion and adhesion In.
volved In the separation of the mole.
cules and atoms of the diamond. The
value Of the gem is In the close contact,
the compactness and the concentration
Of the particles which compose it. The
moment they + separated its value Is
gone. SO a strong, effective man gets
q large part Of his strength from thu
