THE RIGHT POLICY.

When others do you mean turns,
don't try to get even. Just let
them be mean. Let them be sar-
| castle and cutting, let them snarl
and bite and hiss. let them do the
pickering and backbiting. Do you
admire these traits in them? Does
anyone? Don't initiate them.
Let them follow the example of
the shallow cataract and boil and
foam and seethe and hiss aud
froth and sizzle and fret and fume,
while you, like the tranquil wa
tiers of deep stream, go on your
way with unruffied serenity. Give
them the monopoly of hate, envy
and jealousy.
Don't retaliate. It. isn't healthy
and it doesn't pay. By the laws
of moral magnetism, all the mean,
envious and hateful thoughts you
send out attract to themselves
other thoughts of like callbre,
and, like boomrangs, return to
the sender. Watch the people
who indulge in bitterness and re-
ordinations, Aren't they sour
! and haggard and lean and sallow?
Don't they look as if the wine of
life had been muddled with bitter
dregs?
Remember Cardinal Newman's
definition of a gentleman: sit is
almost a definition of gentleman
TO say he is one who never inflicts
pain. He carefully avoids what
ever may cause jar or jolt in
the minds of those with whom he
is cast, avoiding all restraint or
suspicion, or gloom or resentment;
his great concern being to make
every one at ease and at home.
X He makes light of favors
while he does them. and seems to
be receiving while comforting:
4 X II He is never mean or it
tie in his disputes, never takes an
unfair advantage, never mistakes
personalities or sharp sayings for
arguments. He throws
himself into the minds tof his OPP
ponents, and So accounts for their
mistakes. He knows the weakness
Of human nature. as we'll as its
strength, it's province and it's linn
it's"
Hold yourself above hate, jeal-
ousy, envy and pettiness. Main
tain constantly the dignity of
true man, the sweet serenity of
calm temper, and you will attract
to yourself the thoughts of noble
minds ard live in an atmosphere
uncontaminated by carking ervy
and Suspicion.
Look around you and you will
see that this RUE works inevitably.
Get the habit of serenity. Itpays
better than the fussing habit.

STEEL RAILWAY CONTROVERSY.
Facts Are Given In Regard to Mayor
Weaver's Action.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 2.-In the dis
patches handled by the Associated
Press on July 25 in describing the con-
troversy now proceeding over the
street railway situation in this city,
the statement was made that the rail-
way line of the Cleveland Electric
Railway company on Fulton street
was torn up by men acting under the
orders Of Mayor Tom Ia Johnson
and that this action was owing to
the pending controversy in behalf of
the Forest City railway, a Scent fare
line and which under certain condi-
tions can come under the ownership
and control of the municipality.
In addition to relating the facts as
to the tearing up of the rails of the
Cleveland Electric Railway company,
the additional statement was made
that Mayor Johnson was credited
with being largely interested in the
municipal traction company" This
statement was unwarranted, is believ-
ed to be entirely untrue if in it's read
that Mayor Johnson had any financial
interest whatever in the Forest City
company, and is contrary to every
public statement made by that official,
he having specifically anticipated by
public announcement any such possi-
bility. That he has been interested
IN the success of the company, as an
ultimate municipal ownership PROPOSE
ton, but primarily to secure a lower
fare he has openly proclaimed.
The Associated Press Therefore de-
sires to disclaim any knowledge or
motive other than this public inter
est and to disavow any other sug-
gestion in making the statement tele-
graphed.

COLLAPSE OF MUTINY
CHANGES SITUATION
Spirits of Government Officials
Have Risen.
REVoLUTIoNlsTs DEPRESSED
Plans for a General Strike Saturday
May Be manded-Strike in
Finland Already a Complete Fall
ure and Changes Situation.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 2.-The col
lapse Of the mutiny at Sveaborg,
coupled with the breakdown Of the
plans of the revolutionists to secure
possession of the Baltic sQSadron and
provoke an immediate rising at Cron-
stadt, greatly changes the situation.
The spirits Of the government officials
have risen, and those of the reyolu-
tionists are correspondingly depressed
and plans for general strike on Sat
urday may be countermanded. The
strike in Finland is already a failure
owing to the fact that the most intel
ligent of the Firms did not support It
as they realized that placing them
selves at the head of purely Russian
revolutionary movement, they might
justify reprisals and jeoparilze their
newly granted liberties.
The latest reports show that all the
rumors to the effect that the Baltic
squadron was in the hands Of the mu-
uneers were untrue. When the mu-
ineers who were led by agitators
from the shore and who believed that
the squadron was coming to rescue,
found that hope in that direction was
crushed dissensions broke out among
them and they turned their guns upon
each other. Those who had deter
mined to die rather than surrender
fired into the ranks of their more
faint-hearted who had hoisted the
white flag.

ASSOCtdIlOn OHICcTSs
Atlanta, Aug. AT the inyeStiga-
ton of charges made by Representa-
tive Anderson, of Savannah, against
officers of the Southern Cotton asso-

the manner in which Secretary Rich
ard Cheatham acted, and he proceed
ed to tell "alI he knew" about Mr..

tradicted Mr. Curran and the latter
remarked that he would see the gem
tleman later out in the street"
Mr.. Anderson made his statement
in the morning and after he had done
SO he proceeded to line up his wit
nesses, the most important of whom
was w. R. Pagan, local manager Of
a brokers firm.

the Southern Cotton association, was
we'll filled all day The committee
was bent upon getting through as
quickly as possible without stirring up
the investigation, and three sessions

DOCTORS MISTAKES

Are said often to be buried six feet under
ground. But many times women call on
their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid
ney disease, another from nervous pros
tration, another with pain here and there,
and in this way they present alike to
themselves and their eaSy-gOing or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such, preScribes
his pills and potiOns. In reality, they are
all only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
cause of suffering, keeps up his treatment
until large bills are made. The suffering
patient gets no better, by reason of the
wrong treatment, but probably worse. A
proper medicine like DR.. Pierces Favorite
Prescription, directed to the cause would
have entirely removed the disease, there
by dispelling all those distressing symp-
toms, and instituting comfort instead of
prolonged misery. It has been well said,
that "a disease known is half cured"

scientific medicine, carefully devised by
an experienced and skillful physician,
