THE NATIONAL EXUBERANCE.

Now that "the lumult and the shout
ing" have passed and the day after
has recalled people TO their ordinary
yocations, except those unfortunate
enough TO be victims to the desire TO
celebrate eloriously. it is worth while
Gated a sane fourth" have had their
prototypes in every age. There never
was a sane fourth. The boys in colon
ial times used 10 make life a burden
for their elders on gunpowder day up
TO the time when they substituted the
anniversary Of the Boston massacre.
and, when independence was declared
they began promptly a method Of
celebration which has survived to the
present day. changed only relatively
as new devices for isemaking have
been invented or old ones improved
As a matter of fact 1t probably is a
good thing that the average boy has
one whole day each year in which
10 let off steam and feel himself I'M
restrained so far as making racket is
concerned.
The nose however. is but a small
part of the celebration of the day
The most important feature is the ces
sation of ordinary occupation and the
temporary stopping of the machinery
of industry. The strenuous life of the
present demands occasional respite
and no one can overestimate the i'm
portance of the opportunity which a
holiday affords 10 the average man
and woman The baseball game with
its satisfaction for thousands the pic
mic. the sail on the lake, the countless
forms of outdoor recreation, each has
its great value for better citizenship
regardless OF the day upon which such
outing are made possible.
In other words. IL does not make
any particular difference how the
fourth of July is observed. 1t is a timo
for national exuberance The 10Y
feels the patriotic impulse in the noise
making play. even if he does not stop
TO think of the declaration of indie
pendence. The man. a boy of larger
growth always on the fourth has the
same impulse quickened. and noise
and flying flags and crowded parks
and amusement places combined have
their effect in calling renewed atten-
ticn 10 what actually happened when
the United States look its place among
the nations of the world. Making all
due allowances. then. for the noise
nuisance and even for the sad acct
dents Of a holiday. the national exu-
herance is worth while. for insensibly

Work and Worry.

"I am working too hard. My work
is killing me-" The man Is mistaken.
Work does not kill. Work is medicine
to the body and mind and spirit Work
is the salvation of men. Dissipation
kills. Worry is largely a matter OF
nerves or indigestion or liver. Or II
may be a quality OF temperament, or
It may spring from envy or some other
hateful habit OF thought In most
cases worry is concerning things pure
" imaglnary-things that cannot be
helped. One OF the best cures for the
worry habit is work. hard work OF
body and mind. Work requires con,
centration OF effort and mind. That
makes one forget his troubles. Work
may be made a Joy. And in the Joy
Of working there is no room for worry.
Right living. right thinking. work
these are specifics for most Of the Ills
caused By worry.

EDlSoN'S NEWEST INVENTION
Perfected New Battery Ready For
Use of Automobiles.

Perfected New Battery Ready For
Use of Automobiles.
Thomas A. Edison, as young and en-
thusiastic as ever, despite his silveFy-
gray hairs, has made the unqualified
declaration that he has solved the prob
lem of providing cheap and serviceable
electric traction for vehicles, says the
Philadelphia North American.
by October my light battery will
be ready for the market and we will
be ready to equip automobiles of all de-
scriptions," he said. ITO reach a defin-
lite conclusion Of its possibilities l man
ufactured $4,000 cells and equipped
about 100 conveyances of all descrip-
lions. In Washington, we attached the
batteries to a number of express deliv-
cry wagons, with the result that after
many months the cost of operation has
been found to be So per cent OF that of
horses.
1.-THE batteries manufactured varied
In types, so that 1 might obtain the
happy average l wished to strike and
l am prepared to make the unquali-
fed statement that the Edison battery
will revelutionize the storage-battery
problem.
MANY of my experiments were fail
ures at first. 1 determined that 1t was
strange law of nature that would
stop with but one achievement along
one line.
ITO reach the goal for which I
aimed and to keep down the cost to a
trihing portion of what present bat
teries cost to keep alive, I determined
upon the simple combination Of iron
rust, potash and nickel rust, For a
time it failed me, but now l have ae-
complished the result with these In
gradients, and the new light battery Is
an accomplished fact.
at will weigh just one-half of the
present battery in general use and will
be about the same size, although It
stands somewhat higher In It's proper
ton than the other.
"As to Its power there can be no
question. l had a big two-ton car
brought to my factory In Orange, where
It was fitted with cells, and we took II
out and sent 1t over the roads Of New
Jersey at thirty three miles an hour.
1.-The new factory, where the new
cell batteries are to be manufactured,
is being erected in Orange. and the au-
tomobiles will be built and equipped
there"
