GETTING AROIIsED.


 Many people seem to think that am- bition is quality born with us; that it is not suspectible to Improvement; that it is something thrust upon us which will take care of itself. But it is a passion that responds quickly to cultivation, and requires constant care and education, just as the faculty for music or art does, or it will atrophy.
 If we do not try to realize our am- bition it will not keep sharp and de- fined. Our faculties become dull and soon lose their power if they are not exercised. How can we expect our ambition to remain fresh and vigorous through years of inactivity, indolence or indifference? If we keep letting op- portunitties slip by us without making any attempt to grasp them, our inclina- tion will grow duller and weaker.
 What most need" as Emerson says, "is somebody to make me do what cam To do what I can, that is my problem; not what d Napoleon or a Lincoln could do, but what I can do., It makes all the difference in the world to me whether I bring out the best thing in me or the worst whether I utilize 10, 15, 25, or 90 per cent of my ability.
 Everywhere we see people who have reached middle life or later without being aroused. They have developed only small percentage of their suc- cess possibilities They are still in dreamy state. The best thing in them lies so deep that it has never been

IT WAS OBSOLETE.

A man whose hand was against ev- cry other mans and whose heart was filled with distrust of his neighbors was a colleague of former Senator John L, McLaurin in the legislature of South Carolina many years ago. When the former Senator was in Wash ington last week he related to a party of friends some of the unusual incl dents brought about in the Legislature by the eccentricities of this individual The man was so radical in his views and strong in his prejudics, the Sem ator said, and withal he was densely ignorant along certain lines But, like many other of these traits of character, he had a rugged honesty, a strong personality and was man of convictions and hobbies. He believed 1t to be as his constant duty to defend the orphans and widows of the State from scheming and interruptions pol iticians.
 One day in the Legislature, MT. Mo- Laurin introduced measure for the repeal of several old and useless stat utes, among them being the tenure by courtesy" law. Instantly the re- doubtable champion of the orphans and widows was on his feet, his eyes blazing and his arms waving.
 What is this?' he cried, wildly, Another attempt to rob defenceless women and children? raise my voice in indignant protest"
 Then he burst forth into a heated flow of oratory in denunclation of tyranny and oppression that fairly shook the place. In vain 1t was that MT. McLaurin and others tried to still the tempest of passionate invec- tive. The attempt was worse than a failure, for in the discussion MT. 4-c- Laurin unhappily described the law in question as obsolete.

awakened. When we meet these peo- pie we feel conscious that they have a great deal of latent power that has never been exercised. Great possibili- ties of usefulness and of achievement are, all unconsciously, going to waste within them.
 If you interview the great army of failures you will find multitudes have failed because they never got into a stimulating, encouraging environment because their ambition was never arous- ed, or because they were not strong enough to rally under depressing, dis couraging or vicious surroundings. Most of the people we find in prisons and poorhouses are pitiable examples of influence of an environment which appealed to the worst instead of to the best in them.-Success.

ALCOHOL FROM sAwDUsT.

Professor Alexander Classen, of the technical college at Aix-la-Chapelle, has worked out a thoroughly practice able and commercially successful me- thod of making alcohol out of sawdust It differs from the process formerly ex- plotted, in that to convert the cellulose into glucose, gaseous sulphurous acid is utilized, instead of sulphuric acid, which is difficult and costly to remove.
 A remarkable feature of this process is the fact that the sawdust after leav- ing the exhaustion vats, can be used for fuel; for, although it's volume con- stantly diminishes after each step in
The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-03-30

the process, still its value as a fuel re- mains unchanged, no component having fuel value having been removed.
 The process Is constantly being im- proved, and about twenty-five gallons of absolute alcohol is now obtained from a long ton of sawdust, or about double that quantity of crude alcohol.
 It is not necessary to use sawdust; particles of wood of small size can also be treated economically, and as easily as sawdust, Professor Classon is working now on plans for a plant on a commercial seale.-Technical World Magazine.

THE BIGGEST AND BEST.

There is joy in the United States navy and out of it because of the big battleship which is coming. The new $l0000,000 battleship is to be the big gest thing of It's kind that the world has ever seen, and will it is promised, make the British Dreadnought look ob- solete by comparison. The Naval com mittee favors calling the new vessel the Constitution, though the name Repub- lic has also been suggested. The com mittee does not seek to limit the Sec retary of the Navy in determining the new Constitutions displacement. But one limitation is to be placed upon him, and that is that her hull and machine ry shall not cost more than S6,000 900. The provision for the Michigan and South Carolina, authorized last year was $4,000000 each, and there is no doubt in the minds of the members of lIlS 1NdNdl cOlHmlltee lndL II the Secre- tary of the Navy decides to go to 2O,- 900 tons or beyond the extra $2,OOO, OOC now provided will easily accomplish it. It is estimated that the armor and armament for the ship will cost some where in the neighborhood of $S5OO, ,OOC in addition to the hull and machinery and that other fittings will bring the total for the new Constitution up to approximately $1OOOO,OOO
 We might as well have the biggest and best. We've got the money, and while we are peaceable we are also dig nified.

They are getting some things down pretty fine. A French physician, Dr. Mangat, declares that the color of the clothes which consumptive should wear is very important. The clothing should be of kind which allows most light to penetrate it, light having fa- vorable effect on consumptives, Dr. Mangat recommends white stuffs, as they allow the largest number of chem ical rays to pass through them, and ab- sorb no colored rays. White linen, white velvet, white cotton or cloth, but not white silk, may be used. Next to white the best colors are blue and vio- let.

While the growth of population in France is slow, at the rate Germany has grown in the past ten years it promises to be the most populous na- tion of Europe. With population of more than sixty millions it is the sec ond nation of Europe and the third civilized nation of the world, and at the present rate of increase in compari- son with the others promises to realize the Kaiser's hope of being able to fear no nation on earth. The increase of the last decade has been at the rate of Is per cent. a year, while that of Eng land has been only 1.2 per cent, Aus tria 0.9 per cent, Hungary scarcely 1 per cent, France O05 per cent, Italy 0.75 per cent, Spain 09 per cent, and Russia possibly about the same as Ger many, although statistics relative to the czar's dominions are incomplete and more or less doubtful.

The Cleveland-Cl Cliffs Iron company, which is the largest owner of real es- tate in Michigan, is to make practical tial of private forestry on large scale. This company, controlling nearly a mil- lion acres, will subdivde its land into districts. A trained forester will be put in charge of each district and held re- sponsible for results. Ultimately these heads of divisions will have trained men working under them. There is reason to expect that this experiment in private forestry will be financially prof. itable, and if this proves to be the case other large landowners will engage in the same excellent work.

HALE's TOURS OF THE WORLD
Will Be Seen at the Parker Carnival
Shortly.

Hale's Tours of the World Is one
of the bic features of the New Parker
Amusement company, that VIII soon
be here to conduct a Carnival under
local auspices.
The New Parker Amusement com
panv is one of the big attractions
founded by c. W. Parker of Abilene,
Kan, the millionaire manufacturer OF
odd amusement devices. AT his fac
tories in Abilene are made the most
improved mery-go-rounds, scenic
amusing and entertaining productions
engines and light plants. 1t Is blg
business that has been built up IN the
last few wears. because up until 1873
c. w. Parker had no thought OF ever
entering the amusement field. Now
he spends the entire twelve months
of each year planning how his numer-
ons shows can be so distributed about
the country that they will provide
mirth. merriment and revelry for the
people. He has learned by a close
study Of human nature that the peo-
pie want to be entertained, and they
will give liberal patronage TO those
who give them clean attractions, and
will present the scenic and sensa-
! tional.
Hales Tours of the World is one OF
the most realistic entertainments
ever presented at Carnival. The
visitor to this attraction enters
through the doorway of an elegantly
finished, polished Pullman ear. There
is the platform and the railing, and
the deep tones of the engine bell
sound the note of warning that the
train is about to start. Comfortable
seats are upon either side of the aisle
where two can be together. The
lights are extinguished and through
the open end of the car there Is
every appearance of an elegant OBJ
servation compartment. The passen'
ger is taken for a trip through I'M
portant places; the cannons OF the
Western range of mountains, the
Rockies, the high climbs on cog roads
the rapid descent on steep grades, th'
passage through tunnels and stops OF
side tracks and at stations, are pre-
sented. The passenger has all the sen
sation of rounding curves. he imag'

principal cities, along Market street,
San Francisco, now destroyed, along
Broadway, New York, to Coney Is
land and following the hanging rail-
road in Germany. 1t is one of the
most delightful amusement efforts
ever conceived, and while entertain
ing it is presenting triumph of IN
ventive genius that is wonderful IN
the extreme.
This neat and unique attraction
is with the New Parker Amusement
company that is to come to this city
within a short time.
