THE MONEY CRAZE.
Wrong Standard by Which the WOrl
Is Prone to Measure Men

Wrong Standard by Which the World
Is Prone to Measure Men.
The money craze. or tendency to
commercialize the ideal, is found in all
walks Of life. Never before were so
many clergymen, especially young
clergymen. leaving the pulpit to go In
to business. The great commercial
prizes are so tempting that their own
pitiful salaries look contemplate in
comparison. There are clergymen in
the American pulpit preaching for a
few hundred dollars a year who know
perfectly well, and everybody else
knows, too, that they could make many
times as much money In business ca
reers. Many of them do not see why
they should not become rich and pow
erful. They do not understand why
using this money making capacity is
not as legitimate for them as for 9TH
ers. In other words, there is a power
full temptation today for a clergyman
to turn his creative faculties into mon
ey making channels
Many Of our lawyers are looking for
big fees rather than for great legal
acumen or high standing at the bar.
They know that lawyers are envied
today not so much as members of a
great and learned profession, uphold
ers of the majesty and justice of the
law, as because many of them make
great deal of money from their prac-
tice. They know, too, that they are
ranked by fellow lawyers largely In
proportion to their ability to get big
fees. 1t is well known that some Of
the men who get enormous fees and
become millionaires are not great law
yers at all and have nothing like the
legal ability of others who are not
paid a quarter of their fees. What is
his practice worth? seems to be the
question by which to measure a law
yer's standing in the minds of most
people.
Physicians and surgeons are meas
ured in much the same way. How of,
ten we hear it said, why, that physi-
clan has practice of 5000 a year"

the measure of a physicians useful
ness! OF course in a sense getting
enormous fees is some proof of his
ability, but 1t is not the best evidence
Of mans real service to the world.
Many authors today do not seem to
think so much Of putting immortality
into their compositlons-of writing
books which shall live through all time
-as Of earning the largest amount of
money possible with their pens Few
modern writer's would spend years up
on a tiny bit Of composition or ex-
change their lives for few immortal
verses or a single book that the world
would not let die-Success.

Poems OF OLD MEXICO.

Indian Farm Laborers That Are
Really Beasts of Burden.
The Mexican peon Is the backbone Of
the republic Without him the great
landed estates, or haciendas, would lie
In idleness, while agricultural and com
mercial interests would stagnate OF
cast iron constitution, he can endure,
apparently without effort, the hardest
sort Of drudgery. His energy comes
from Q. diet that consists chiefly Of
ground peppers, beans or frijoles and
large quantity of tortillas He works
from to 6, enjoying in the meantime
his two simple meals. In general, the
Indian farm laborers are of submis-
sive and respectful disposition Like
the negroes of the south, they are not
far from the main building, so as to be
on hand whenever their services are
required. They usually insist, how
ever, on celebrating their holidays,
which lessons their real usefulness
about % per cent. The holidays are
numerous and afford the laborer many
opportunities to quaff from the stupe-
flying pulque bowl. Their stock of sur
plus change is not apt to be excessive
1t cannot be when most of them re-
ceive but little over 20 cents a day.
Field hands in the states of Guanajua-
to. Michaocan and Queretaro receive
a cuartillo of corn In addition to their
wages of II cents a day. One hacien-
dado who voluntarily raised the wages
Of his hands to 18 cents a day found
himself without labOrers for two days
of the week. As the extra wages sup
piled living means for the entire week,
what was the need of working?
These laborers are of all sizes and
ages; but, whether young or old, all
bear alike upon their brow the depress-
ing and degrading leathern thong that
makes of them beasts Of burden. The
effect Of this customary strap on the
shape Of the head Is seen in the fact
that the poems the country over have
peak shaped heads tending toward the
shape Of the pointed hat The supply
of laborers is. so to speak, perennial.
The young muchacho receives his train
ing in watching the sheep and the
goats, acting as messenger or prodding
the burros in the pack train. When he
is about sixteen years old he takes his
place with the regular laborers and be-
gins to cast his eye about for a help
mate. The wife may prove useful and
earn small wage at some such opera
ton as sowing seed. Her life will be a
monotonous one. A strip of cloth serves
as dress and skirt, strip of leather
provides sandal, and in the hot re-
gions the clothing for the boys is even
as simple. All that is required is a
Jorongo, which consists Of a yard Of
cotton cloth with a hole for the head
and two depending flaps to cover
breast and back. There is no possibili-
ty of their clothing impeding their
movements. When the woman takes
her husbands meal to him far out in
the fields. she takes the little toddler
with her fastened securely In her re-
bozo.-Pilgrim.

HOW We Catch Cold.

The rationale of the causation of the
ordinary cold" Is pretty well under

orally conceded that when circulatory

general chilling Of the body surface
newly entered or already present path
ogenic bacteria are enabled to attack
the body with very good chances Of
success. At such times it is said that
the powers of resistance are below
par, and consequently the bacteria
gain an easy victory. This point was

the theft that we had the right man.
After the prosecution had rested SUIT

witness and gravely informed the court
that he intended to prove by him that
my witness had lied. Buffalo took
the stand and swore that, while he had
never seen or heard of the witness be-
fore and knew nothing at all about the
crime committed, he had had a great
deal of experience with men and could
tell pretty certain when they were
lying Then he proceeded to tell how
men acted when they were lying, and

So his grace and the hoy OF 10 sat
down alone, much to the alarm of the
valet, who thought the end Of all
things was near.
After grace the duke told the lad
that he had ordered several things to
be brought, and would help him to

boys like to taste all they see"
During the meal the duke talked
constantly and always kindly. Dinner
ended. his grace shook hands with
Kendall and bade him goodbye.
