the sum total of human happiness.
This class of men are seldom
money makers in the vulgar sense;
in fact, they do not usually care for
money as such. but they certainly
are the fortunate men of earth, a
blessed race who benefit mankind
by following their bent. Of
course, the mere plodders in the
agricultural world do not secure
entrance into this Valhallah, but
the fact remains that residence on
a farm opens opportunities for
tasting the elixir if the Individual
has in him any remnant of the
divine spark. Cultivation of the
artistic sense, learning to ap-
preciate the poetical possibilities,
are essential if one would extract
from rural pursuits the maximum
of rural pleasures. The woman
who delights 10 trailing vines, in
beds of flowers, in neatly bordered
walks and grassy laws will be found
far happier than she who thinks
all that IS necessary to constitute
farmers wife is to cook three meals
a day and see that the children's
clothing is duly patched The

Why Not Smile.

If you will put on your rose
colored glasses before viewing the
world every morning you will find
life worth living. Don't look on
the dark side of things, but close
your eyes when that side comes
around, and it will be one long
round of sunshine and happiness
There's no use to be glum; a per-
son can smile just as easily as he
can scold, and look pleasant just
as easily as he can frown. Always
have a cheerful word for those you
meet and you will soon be loved
by all.-Rusk Press-Journal.

The Fictitious Balance Of Trade.

The last fiscal year shows a
balance of trade in our favor of
$40, 941,163, after allowing for
exports and imports of the precious
metals. The year previous the
balance was S461, 357, COS. These
vast sums would seem to be a clear
gift by the people of the United
States to foreign nations for there
has been no reciprocal return as
far as the government statisticians
have been able to discover. Why
do we apparently give Europe over
$500, 900, 900 a year more than we
receive? That is a disputed ques-
ton. It is quite possible that the
government statistics are colored
to prove we sell more than
we bay. This great drain has been
going on for years and these huge
balances would seem to represent
an invisible debt accruing against
the United States on account of
interest charges and travellers ex-
penditures rather than an acct
mutation of foreign credits in our
favor Post

st. Petersburg, Aug. Sit Is as
serted that Premier stolypin and his

eret of the Novoe Tremya's constant
references during the last few days
to the Necessity for protecting the cab

in conversation with friends, is said
to have declared that he Ii continually
subjected to embarrassment, adding
that he was convinced that the task
which he had set himself was impos-
sible unless the emperor gave him an
absolutely free hand, In other words,
conferred upon the cabinet a practical
dictatorship. An intimation comes
from a high source that the premier
preached the subject at the first au-

passed away at IL O'Clock noon at
Cobb's hospital, at fifty-seven years of,
age. Death was due to appendicitis.
A week ago the former attorney
general was taken suddenly ill while
enjoying a vacation at Osakis, this
state.
His illness became acute and Mr..
Childs was removed to this city hoping
that he would improve sufficiently TO-
allow of an operation. But he did not
rally, nor did he improve so that ar
operation could be performed. In fact
he continually lost strength, sinking
lower and lower, until the attending
physician decided that an operation
was out of the question, as the patient
was growing steadily weaker.

Havana, Aug 31.--No news of the
operations of Colonel Avalos, COM
mander of the government forces in
Pinar del Rio, has been received at
the palace, military headquarters or
elsewhere since he left San Juan de
Martinez in search Of the main insur-
gent body, commanded by Pine Guer-
ra. Government circles continue hope
full of his success, bst the fact is not
lost sight Of that the government
troops are moving into the center OF
their opponents territory and that the
numbers of the insurgents are not
known. ; New bands are reported to
have been organized in various places
in Pinar del Rio and elsewhere, which
gives the situation a gravity which
there is no attempt to disguise. Up
to noon no reports of engagements OF
Importance had been received. al
though desultory sllirmishes with mi
nor bands of insurgents, especially
westward, had taken place. No sug-
gestions have been received at the
palace from anybody of settlement

It Is stated that the government would

Many Peculiar Affairs in Real Estate
and Trust Company:

Many Peculiar Affairs in Real Estate
and Trust Company:
Philadelphia, Aug. 31.-Now that
Receiver Earle has taken charge of
the Real Estate and Trust company
Of this city, which closed its doors
last Tuesday because of a shortage of
about $7,000,000, 1t is expected that
many matters in the affairs Of the
company that are not clear to the d.
rectors or depositors will soon be ex-
planned.
Among the first things to be done
will be the opening, of the strong box
which belonged to the late Frank K.
Nipple, the president of the trust COM
pany. No one, not even his family,
it is said, knows what it contains, but
it is hoped by the receiver that its
contents will be such as to be of some
aid to the receiver in Strengthening
out the affairs Of the company. Wheth-
er Mr.. Nipple carried life insurance
is not known to the directors OF the
company, and all information on that
subject is refused by the family.
The receiver reiterated to many
anxious inquirers that on hurried ex-
animation of the books and papers he
feels quite certain that all securities
and trust funds not belonging directly
ia the trust company itself are intact.
The company had charge OF trust
funds and estates valued at more than
$26,O0O,OO0 and the benefciaries of
many of these have been clamoring
ever since the company closed it's
doors for positive information as to
the security of these trusts.
There is much speculation in f1nan'
cial circles as to the identity of the
persons other than Segal who Dor
rowed money from the Real Estate
Trust company. The directors OF the
company refuse to make the names
public for the reason that the trans
actions were regular and the loans
amply protected. The failure was due
entirely, it is said, to the loans to

PLAN FOR REORGANIZATION.
Receiver Earle Outlines Scheme te
Reopen the Bank!

Philadelphia, Aug. 31.-Receiver
Earle said that the plan for the reor-
ganization of the Real Estate Trust
company. was to ask the creditors to
take preferred stock in the trust COM
pany for their claims and appoint
their own officers in the company.
This he felt assured would give the
creditors their only chance to get
their money dollar for dollar.
This plan has not been perfected in
detail, as 1t will take some little time
to get the matter In shape to present
to the creditors in its proper form.
Mr.: Earle added he had just discoy-
cred that large asset of the trust
company, which it was supposed was
not very good, really was backed by
names perfectly good and which could
belrealized on. This asset Is said to
be $3.50, 900 in value.
