Forgetting.


There are lot of things TO forget in
this world. Suppose we count up few
of them, and see what we get on the list
First, you might put the mean things
others say or do to you. Are they worth
remembering: DO they make you any
wiser or better or happierI No Then
forget them as quickly as you can.
Crowd out every hateful word or @"t
with the memory of some other pleasure
speech or deed-one worthier place IN
your memory.
Again. there are the mistakes you may
have made in the past; not sins, but
places where you have bungled your
work, or failed TO accomplish what you
attempted. Does the memory of them
rise again and again, and discourage you
and hamper your work of today! Chase
1t off with the thought of how many
times you have made success of your
efforts. Do not allow the past to clog
the wheels of your progress, if you would
ever get anywhere.
Then there are the good. kind, char
liable things you have done to others.
do you remember where to find a GER
tam verse which says something about
not letting one hand know what the
other doest Suppose you read Matt. $50,

II. From thinking comes speaking; and
1t is not pleasant to find that people look
upon you as one who blows his own

with plans for future good things to do
and be so busy looking and thinking
ahead that you will have no time for
thg memories of past things.

What Your Voice Betrays.

tie character of the instrument by which

The President Did II.

The predicted and expected inter
ference by corporations with the
work Of the upper chamber happily
did not materialize. The senate
surprised the country--and itself as
well, no doubt-by developing a
strain of radicalism never before
suspected Of presence In its compost
ton. The presidents comment is
Incomplete, however. No future his
torian or critic OF the federal legls-
lation of the past seven months will
treat It fairly II he fails to note the
manner in which some of 1t was
brought about. This session has
been distinctively memorable" for
the remarkable and unprecedented
part played in II by the chief execu-
tive. In all the century and a third
of our national existence the spec
tacle was never presented until the
year 1905 Of a president taking prac-
teal charge of the progress Of bills
through either chamber, debating
the phraseology OF amendments and
repeatedly calling conferences at the
white house to arrange the details
Of motion making and vote-getting.
Theodore Roosevelt has acted strict
ly within his constitutional rights,
Of course. and in the hour of the
triumph of his pet measures it will
be easy for the public to forget his
interference or to plead justification
for 1t. But the more sober-mlhded
in our citizenship will pray that a
precedent has not been created. In
the hands of less patriotic. con-
scientious and sincere chief execu-
tive the white house whip" might
prove a terribly dangerous weapon.
