BE ON WATCH FOR CHANCES.
Writer Points Out Danger Of oppor
tunitles Being Invisible.

1t is dangerous thing to wait for
opportunities until it becomes a habit.
Energy and inclination for hard work
ooze out in the waiting Opportunity
becomes invisible to those who are
doing nothing, or looking somewhere
else for it, 1t is the great worker,
the man who is alert for chances that
sees them.
Some people become so opportun-
ity-bIind that they cannot see chances
anywhere-they would pass through
a gold mine without noticing any
thing precious-while others will find
opportunities in the most barren and
out-of-the- way places. Bunyan found
opportunity in Bedford Jail to write
the greatest allegory in the world on
the untwlsted paper that had been
used to cork his bottles of milk. A
Theodore Parker or Lucy Stone
sees an opportunity to go to college
in a chance to pick berries. One boy
sees an opening to his ambition in a
chance to chop wood, wait on table,
or run errands, where another sees
no chance at all. One sees an oppor-
tunity to get an education in the odds
and ends of time, evenings and half
holidays, which another throws away.

HERoIsM IN EVERYDAY LIFE.
There Displayed in Higher Form Than
on the Battlefield.

on inc Dhkt2cIGiQs
Prof. William James of Harvard uni
versity relates that upon a certain
journey he was questioning with him
self whether or not the higher hero
ism of life was passing out of human
society; and that at the very moment,
he looked from the car window and
suddenly got sight of a number Of
workmen performing some task on the
dizzy ledge of an iron construction at
great height, says Success. This at
once brought to his mind sense OF
the everyday bravery Of men in every
day occupations. 1t flashed upon him
on the instant that the true heroism
Of life is found not only on the day
of battle and in desperate adventures,
but also in building every bridge, or
in the ordinary day-by-day service OF
the world, whether Of the sailor upon
his deck, the brakeman upon his train,
the lumberman upon his raft. or wher-
ever else men are at work. "As
awoke to this unidealized heroic life
around me-" he says, "the scales
seemed to fall from my eyes, and a
wave of sympathy greater than | had
ever before felt with the common life
Of common men began to fill my soul. "

YOUNG MEN OF THE SOUTH.
Business Of That Section Very Largely
in Their Hands.

The young southerner is forging to
the front so fast that 1t now is more
likely that he will crowd the strang-
ers out than that they will seriously
rival him. The young southern men,
often mere boys of 21 and 22, are
running the banks. the stores, the
hotels. They are exploiting great
tracts of land, feeding vast forests
into the sawmills. They are the rail-
road men, the promoters. the brokers.
Oil wells gush at their behest, towns
rise at their command. BY men under
30 the greater part of the business OF
the south is now being done. The
northern who thinks Of emigrating
to the south because he believes he
can surpass the natives IN business
capacity will find foemen worthy OF
his steel-keen, untiring and full OF
the nerve and enthusiasm Of youth.
The south is the new part, the young
part. of our domain. The west has
become staid and middle-aged. The
young man has come to the front in
the south, and with him the south
comes into its owa once more.-Les-

I'm weary Of paint and powder,
I'm weary OF eyebrows and curls,
And the busy soubrette who sings louder
Than all OF the rest of the girls
NY fancy turns to the pase to dwell
On the lassie who used to recite
The story they tell
OF the curfew bell
Forbidden to ring tonight.
I'm tired Of the leading lady,
With the frown and the alto voice.
In the past that's described as shady
No more can my heart rejoice.
To that curfew lassie-the village pride
Ny memory once more inclines,
Who sweetly tried,
And who almost cried,
Because she forgot her lines.
No queen OF the drama Is half so fair
AS the star Of that night in sooth;
There is none with such gold in her way
ing hair
And none with such artless youth.
And how l resent each ruthless year
That curtains the scenes OF old.
I'd pay right dear
For a place to hear
The tale Of the curfew told.

Church Turns Down the OH Kings
OFFER Of 100000
Congregational ministers represent
ing Boston and various sections of
New England, have forwarded to the
American board of commissioners for
foreign missions a protest against the
acceptance by the board of a gift OF
100000 from John D. Rockefeller.
The petition, which was prepared by
a committee chosen at a regular
meeting OF the clergymen, protests
against the acceptance of the gift on
the ground that the Standard Oil
company, of which Mr.. Rockefeller is
the head, Stands before the public
under repeated and recent formid-
able indictments in specific terms for
methods which are morally iniquit-
GUS and socially destructive" and
that "the acceptance OF such gift
involves the constituents Of the board
in a relation implying honor toward
the donor, and subjects the board
to the charge of ignoring the moral
Issues involved.
In conclusion the protest says:
"We, the undersigned, therefore
protest against any action by which
our church may even seem to be COM
promised, and we plead with the Off
GERS of the board to decline the gift,
or to return it If it has been accept

FORTUNE In FEW MINUTES :
Divers Fee of $25,OOO Earned in Comparatively I
Easy Manner.


The most remarkable of the few
human fishes in the world, called deep
sea divers, Is Hal Lefton of San Fran
cisco. He has diyed for a living in
nearly all the different waters Of this
planet. His specially of late years
has been "salving," that is, recovering
treasure from sunken ships. He gets
a commission on whatever he brings
to the surface. 1t was he who earned
$25,000 in a single dive to the sunken
steamer Rio Janeiro, which went down
off San Francisco with all aboard, in
cluding $2,O00,0Q0 in gold from the
Klondike. His story as he told it to
the writer was amazing.
There is much known sunken treas
ure," said Lefton, (which cannot be
recovered by divers, because 1t lies
at too great a depth. There's the
steamer Oregon, wrecked in 1886,
with $1,000.OOO in gold; and the Erie,

years ago the lords were thrown into

North was addressing the house, and
the dog promptly proceeded to bark

Find It Out.

Ftnu u Ouls
Having accumulated a considerable
PROPERTY, the late Nathaniel Whitmore
Of Gardiner, Mass, more familiarly
known by people Of the Kennebec val
ley as Uncle Nat" Whitmore. received
naturally enough, numerous requests
from various organizations to contrib
ute toward the work in which these
organizations were interested. Sell
dom, however, did he respond to the
appeals,
On one occasion the minister OF
certain church In Gardiner approached
him, only to be politely turned away
as many others before him had been
on the plea OF poverty.
But, Mr.. Whitmore," said the d.
vine, you are reputed to be very rich.
What, pray, since you have no chill
dren, do you intend to do with your
money when you die?"
"Uncle Nat" rubbed his long, bony
hands together, and with a sinister
smile on his face, replied:
my good sir, that is a secret have
never confded to anyone, but as you
are minister of the gospel, and Will,
presumably, hold inviolable anything |
may say, I'm going to tell you"
The clergyman assured Mr.. Whit
more that the secret would be well
kept, whereupon the latter drew close
and, in a tone of the greatest conf
dence, said:
when die I'm either going to
take my money with me or leave It
behind"
