sstrengthening Facultien.

O. s. Marden in Success Magazine.
 Few people are well-balanced, we'll rounded. A great many have splen- did ability in certain lines, good edu- cation, fine training, and yet have some deficiency in their makeup which cripples the whole life and dwarfs the results of their utmost industry Many of us have some little, eontemptible weakness which offsets our strong qualities and ruins their effectiveness.
 What a pity to see 8 giant in possi- bility tied down by some little, con- temptible weakness which cripples what might have been a magnificent career! If parent or teacher would only point out to a child a weakness which, pehaps, will be fatal if not re- medied, and teach it how to guard against 1t, how to strengthen the de- fective quality by mental exercise. what a tremendous help 1t would give to the child, perhaps preserving 1t from failure.
 It is pitiable to see a young man lowing to what he calls fate, which he thinks has ben fixed by the contour of thinks has been fixed by the contour of cies. Why should we drag our weak nesses through life when a little com mon sense a little right thinking in fix- ing new habits of thought, will soon remedy them?
 If you are conscious of a mental weakness, a deficient faculty, using a little concentration, thinking in the opposite direction and dwelling upon the perfect faculties you desire, would soon put you in a normal condition.

Requests to Animals.


 free bed for cats is maintained fin an animal hospital in Philadelphia.
 It is large cage of polished nickel, with a porcelain floor that slides out for cleaning. and with an outfit of nor celain feeding utensils, a pnetimatic bed and an abundance of soft, clean blankets.
 Standing beside this bed, the hos pitafs supentendent said:
 Tt was bequeathed to us seven years ago by rich old woman. The Income of $1,000 is set apart for it's maintain ance. It does a deal Of good.
 Requests to animals" he went on, become more and more common as the various societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals increase in mum Der.
 "A San Francisco woman left the income of $5,000 to be expended in keeping the streets free from broken glass, tin cans and al ouch rubbish as might cut the feet of horses.
 There is hospital for birds in New York, and I know a woman whose will when she dies will mako it richer by $150 a year.
 "A St. Louis millionaire left a good sum to be devoted to making easier the lives of aged and broken down horses and mules
 Animal bequests of this kind are wise. There is another kind of ani- nal bequest, though, that is very fool ish. This is the setting aside of ex- travagant sums for the luxurious maintenance after the masters or mistress death of pet animals. Such bequests cause swindling. The person who has $2O0 or $500 year to keep a cat or dog on is prohting largely, and when the cat or dog dies substitutes another for it in order that the income may not cease.
 T know of bequests of this foolish sort to cats. dogs birds and even gold fish. In each case there was cheating. As the real pet died another that res- embled 1t was substituted"

 I was especially thankful that the frugality or ineficiency of the Mill town corporation had caused the light at the corner of Mill and Sanderson streets to go out on the particular oc- casion when I cautiously sauntered up to No. 214. Now if the Milltown Electric Light and Power Go. had been one of the .open-hearred corporations which control the public utilities in all other cities.

It Is normal thinking that makes the

HprmhI LIte.
 But if you leave your weak faculties alone-do uot exercise them, do not try to enlarge them, do not think 1t worth while--how can you expect them ever to become strong? You cannot develop a symmetrical body by simply exercising the arms. The same is true of the mental faculties. Those which are not used deteriorate. If you long for a thing and strive for 1t with all your right persistently enough, and long enough. you cannot help approxi- mating 1t; you must get what you wish in acme degree.

to his credit. He then decided to re-
turn home, but upon reaching Seattle
lie learned of his wife having secured
a divorce and remarrying, and there
upon ]returned TO Alaska. The long,
ing to see his people became stronger,

he decided TO return TO Dakota, reach
ing here a week ago.

dead. secured a divorce and married
I. w. Seaman, a farmer living near

state. AS soon as he finishes his bus-
mess in this country Mr.. Lathrop will
return to the Klondike district, 1t be-
ing asserted that his daughters Will

with him. Mr.. Lathrop has reformed
and does not touch liquor now.
