Sentiment Can Save Crops.

There are persons who deny the power
of sentiment. That proves nothing. for
there are persons who deny the force Of
gravity. Some persons deride things sen
timental and point scornful finger at the
sentimentaIst.
And yet 1t is sentiment that makes the
world worth living In and that makes life
worth living. Without sentiment there
would be no love. no poetry. no music. No
masterpieces would be created by the brush
of the painter or the chisel Of the sculptor
Sentiment is the mother OF all beauty and
the father of all good. II Is sentiment that
makes the strong man protector of the old
and the weak. 1t Is sentiment that fosters
toward children. The good in every man
Is sentiment.
Sentiment not only builds churches hos
pitfalls and asylums for the infirm but 1t
can save the crops. The following dispatch
from Topeka, Kan. shows that but for SEN
timent Farmer Illusions wheat crop would
have been ruined:
Miss Mabel Huston, the pretty daughter
of Saline county farmer. saved her
fathers wheat crop from the threatening
rain by giving prizes. In the form of kisses
and hugs, to the hired laborers who would
shock the most wheat. The first prize,
three kisses and a hug. went to the son
of a neighbor and the others were given
TO imported harvest hands from eastern
states. The wheat crop. valued at about
$1,000. was saved by the unique plan of
the girl. as the heavy rain which came
after the days work would have ruined any
grain that remained unshocked.

Baltimore's Affections.

Baltimore has doubtless come to the
conclusion that the elements are IN
league against her. Winter before last
she was swept by a fire which destroyed
the heart of the business district. doing
damage amounting to close uron a hun
dred millions This week the rains fell
upon her in such volume that the lower
part of the city was inundated and the
damage amounted to about $4,000. or
course this second visitation is insignificant
compared with the holocaust of 1904. but 1t
is nevertheless a shock to the serenity of
the community. Between fire and flood the
Monumental city has certainly endured
enough to win for her the commiseration
of all her neighbors.

Compartments those of Hawthorne.
Emerson Dana. Parker. Curtis. the Rip
leys and Margaret Fuller. They were
keenly sympathetic. They cherished high
conceptions of life. They entered upon
their new existence vigorously. enthusiastic
cally. But they ran counter to the stern
fact that the modern conditions of life do
not permit such segregation. The call of
the century was for a broad spread of the
human energies. The work that civiliza-
ton allots to each man and woman de-
mands association with the world. The
day of specialization was dawnIng when
Brook Farm was starting. and the central
thought of that enterprise was contrary to
the spirit.
1t is to be doubted whether Brook Farm
would have succeeded even If the local and
personal conditions permitted. The civil
war soon to break. The countrys call
was for sacrificing labors for the spread
of the word of liberty. There was some
thing irreconcilable between the fast-com-
ing requirements of the period and the
thought of a communal grouping of men
and women. The causes of failure at
Brook Farm were fundamental and the
most favoring circumstances would not
have awaited to save the colony from dis
solution.

The Passing of Brook Farm.

All Americans who venerate landmarks
will grieve over the announcement that
some miscellaneous boys have destroyed the
old house where gathered the famous Brook
Farm colony. in West Roxbury Mass This
weather-beaten building has been an object
Of keen interest to all students of ntera-
ture and sociology. For a long time 1t has
been vacant There have been a few feeble
and unsuccessful efforts to secure funds for
It's purchase and preservation as one OF the
important relics of America. Now Il has
gone up in smoke in consequence OF the
Fourth of July foolishness of some young
sters who doubtless had no conception of
It's character or Its associations.
Thus passes the last tangible token of a
most suggestive failure. Henceforth Brook
Farm will live only In fading personal
memory and in books. All of the partici-
pants In that experiment are dead Tho
names of some have passed permanently
upon the records. some written high on the
tablets of literary fame. They will never
die. and the fact OF the Brook Farm ex-
pertinent will remain always in evidence

The Boastful Swedes.
nm the Ioui.vi1le Courier-Journal

From the Louisville Courier-Journal
1t Is somewhat surprising to note the tone
of disdain that marks the speeches of Swed-
ish politicians and public men In their al
lusions to Norway and Norway's people.
There is a supercilious curve of the upper
lip. as though the speakers were representa-
tive of the worlds culture and brains. while
the Norwegians struggled along in the sub
cellar of medieval ignorance or hopeless
stupidity.
They thus make themselves absurd in the
eyes of the world. For today there live in
Norway:
Fridiof hansen.
Henrik Ibsen.
Bjornstjerne BjornSen.
Edward Grieg.
These are men of achievement. whose
fame has gone around the world. and whose
work has influenced the life of two hemis-
pheres. They have done great service in
the fields of science. art and letters.
Sweden cannot point to a single contem-
porary within her borders who can match
any one of them.

tions China. as is easily to be seen. has a
stake of good size in the game, and she
will follow the proceedings with interest
and anxiety. Between Russia and Japan
she has had stormy time for many years.
and peace and security must be her wish
now. The United States hopes for terms
that will make the integrity of the Chinese
empire absolutely safe.

Hosting the Jolly Roger.
From the PhiladelphIa Inquirer.

Humor and pathos as we'll as tragedy
figure in the career of the battleship
Potemkin. which has been rowing the Black
sea- a law unto itself. This is. we believe.
the first pirate steamship in the history of
the world. certainly the first In her class.
That such thing is possible makes one rub
his eyes to see whether he is not dreaming.
1t Is enough to make Captain Kidd turn
over in his grave. He seems to have lived
too soon to have had the best opportunity
to show the real qualities In him. In COM
mand of the Potemkin he would probably
be able to destroy all that is left of the
Black sea feet. il that collection is no bet
ter than the Baltic feet. and we have reas-
on to suppose that it is worse. II such a
situation as this had been outlined in comic
opera it would have been h0oted at as an
affront to the intelligence of the audience.
After this comic opera plots must invaria-
bly, be taken seriously. They cannot come
up to the real thing.
