THE HUNGRY "LIMIT.~

From the New York Mall.
If a woman in an automobile makes
whirl, head downward, through the
air this year, she must take two whirls
next year. The year after that, a great
apparatus will have to be created which
will give her and her motor car three
whirls. The limit" must be reached each
time. and each time the public must be
thrilled and dazed a good deal more than
on PREVIOUS occasions.
The limit in the possession of wealth,
the limit in extravaganza of expenditure,
the limit in audacity of speculation. the
limit in loftness of construction, the limit
In speed of locomotion, the limit in love,
in hatred, in crime-some one is pushing
toward each one of these all the time
and every momentary staggerer at the
apex of things is the hero of the day.
But what Is the good of 1t all? How
has this generation been able to reverse
the wisdom of the long line of sages who
have declared that the golden mean is
the happiest stage?
In simple truth, it has not reversed it.
The unattained limit always yawns hun
grily before us. 1t Is unreal-it is for
ever beyond. The only real 'limit" is
the grave.

Cotton Seed Oil.

The census bureau puts the value of
the cotton seed crop at $52,000,000.
This sum, great as it is, would be
doubled, possibly quadrupled, If the
people of this country would overcome
an unreasonable and absolutely base
less prejudice against the use of cot
ton oil in the place of lard, an
animal fat, often taken from hogs
afflicted with cholera or other dis
eases. If the people of the south
would use cotton oil, the value of the
cotton seed crop would be doubled,
and a handsome start would be made
in extending it's use to all parts of the
country, and to other countries, for
it is as pure and clean as lard is i'm
pure and unelean.
Our consul at Marseilles reports
that all-not some, but all-oliye oil
is adulterated with cotton oil, and Is
the Delter IOr II. Inc superiority VI
the blended article is now acknowl-
edged in all parts of Europe. Salads
of the most delicate sort are made
from It, and it suits all tastes and all
classes of people.
What is good in salads should be
acceptable in the kitchens in this
country, especially when it is desira-
BILE to get rid of lard. The cost OF
lard. too. is a heavy tax upon the
south. Economy, health and local
patriotism all point to cotton oil and
away from lard, made no one knows
how, in the northwest.

canal. A disagreement between the
houses would leave the subject in the
hands of the President, who fayors a
lock canal and who has authority TO
proceed on that line.
The best opinion seems to be that
the plan of the canal will not be de.
termined during the present session of
Congress, and possibly not by this
Congress. and that the President will
keep on digging by direct action, and
not through contractors. There will
be no suspension of work, and nothing
will be done that will prevent the
adoption of a sea-level plan by the
sixtieth Congress. The President has
already informed Congress that he
will go ahead to build a locl-leyel
canal unless Congress decides other
wise. Congress will probably let the
country drift a year or two more,
when the state of public sentiment
will become we'll defined, and the great
question can then be settled to the
full satisfaction of the country.

HE WAS SYMPATHETIC.

Washington Special to the New York
World.
The senators who expected to see Sena-
tor Tillman rampage around on the rail-
road rate bill, of which he is in charge
on the floor, are discouraged. Every day
they go to the Senate, thinking there
will be an explosion. and every day they
are disappointed.
''Tillman's skill In turning corners and
the attitude of the public remind me of
the lenife-thrower who was exhibiting
his prowess in a variety theatre said
a senator HE had been accustomed to
stand a very pretty young woman up
against a board and throw big knives at
her. which barely missed her but which
did miss her. and outlined her form
against the board.
"One night his assistant was i'll and
the knife-thrower was obliged TO substi-
tute his wife, who was an old and ugly
woman. The wife stood up against the
board. The knife-thrower came on. did
his preliminary antics, selected a great
shining knife and plugged it at the wo-

Ianan and The Railways.

In the course of five years Japan
proposes to nationalize her railroads
at a cost of 25,00O,O0O. The bill went
through the lower house of the Japan
ese parliament by vote of 243 to 109.
1t will soon be law
Japan proposes to take over the
railroads of that enterprising country
on the basis of twenty times the av-
erage annual net earnings before the
war with Russia. On that basis the
railroads in the United States would
cost this government twelve thousand
five hundred millions of dollars-a
fsum so great that no one but John d.
could grasp 1t. No one
profboses that the government shall
take over our railroads on that or any
othRr basis. The problem is too huge
eveh for academic consideration.
Should the question ever have a prac-
teal side, the rule of duplication
would be more apt to be adopted than
the rule of Japan which includes the
Capitalization of franchises granted by
the people. But the entire subject is
too academic to interest any one Sc
riously.
