The effectiveness of preacher is
not measured by the amount of yell
he puts into his discourse. The best
preachers we ever heard were effective
because of the simplicity of their dis
course, and we will wager a cooked
hat that when the books are opened on
the final day the quiet but forceful
preacher will have a deal more souls
saved to his credit than the one who
iudulges in rhodomonade and noise.

Unionism means more money in
your pocket on account of the higher
wages you receive. With more money
in your pocket, no matter if the prices
of things do go higher you have more
chances of buying what you want.
Under small wage the worker must
buy only the bare necessaries, and
sometimes that supply is very meagre.
Unionism undoubtedly means better
conditions for everybody.

Since the Chicago stock yards inves-

State Aid.

New Hampshire has taken a most re-
markable step in the direction OF a
better system Of public highways. A
measure has been enacted into law
appropriating no less a sum than three
quarters Of a million dollars for the
permanent improvement Of the main
highways of the State. The money is
to be raised at the rate Of S125,0W q
year for six years.
This amount will build a great many
miles of macadam road, and will no
doubt lead to still further construction
in years to come.
It is what we will all have to come
to. sooner or later. The State must
do the general road-making. The cities
and villages and even counties are too
small units for so large q work. But
State and towns in combination can
accomplish q great deal and the bur-
den will be lighter. New Hampshire,
in reality, has only taken a place in the
march of process.

Benefits of Standing I'm,

Women are supposed to grow more
masculine as time changes and our
manners change with the times, SO it
may not have attracted much notice
how lately they have taken to stand
talking, male fashion, in front Of the
fireplace after l%unchenon or dinner in
stead Of sinking gracefully into the
nearest comfortable cairs.
This is, however, no attempt at man.
nishness, but simply the following out
of the latest medical fad, which adj
vises US to stand for at least half an
hour after each meal, to avoid the
pains Of indigestion. Food is better
assimilated SO, it seems, than if we

Caught o Crown Prince.

1t would really seem as though the
recent marriage Of the German Crown
Prince and Duchess Cecile was a love
match. The young man is credited with
having made a decidedly original pre-
posal. He and his future wife were
stopping at Schwerin Castle and, both
being enthusiastic anglers, conducted
their courtship through the aid Of rods
and reel. One afternoon the Prince,
being unsuccessful in the sport,
dropped the rod for a small camera
which he carried, and among other pic
lures taken was one of the Duchess
just as she was about to land her fish.
That evening she received a finished
copy Of a picture beneath which her
royal lover had written "Gefangen-
und Ich auch" ("Caught-and I also").

Ills Reason.

A young mar from the South, who
had secured a position in a mercantile
house in Philadelphia had, at the rec.
ommendation of a fellow employe, en-.
gagged board and lodging in a private
family. The family were extremely
devout. Before each meal a long grace
was said. To their dismay and hor-
ror the new boarder sat bolt upright
while the others at table reverertly
bowed their heads. When the second
day passed and the man from the
South evinced no disposition to unbend,
the good lady of the house could en-
dure the situation no longer.
"AtheiSm?" asked she, sharply.
"No, madam" humbly responded the
new boarder, 'boil."-Harper's Week

Care with Model Roads.

Considering the importance Of good
roads, it is Of vital moment that. object
lessons in their building should be
well taught. For this reason none but
the most skillful engineers and the
most conscientious contractors should
be employed in building model roads.
If the improvement proves good and
permanent, it will soon convince the
taxpayers that more such road is de-
sirablc, and development in that line.
will follow. Should the model road
prove defective, it would be a serious
setback to the cause.

Most of the Japanese ladies are

she slips her feet from her tiny shoes,

demurely with her feet doubled be-

holds just tobacco enough to produce
about two good whifs Of smoke.

GRADUALLY RECOGNIZING THE TRUTH

The period of skeptcism in the eastern press over the greatness Of thu
Southern Nevada gold fields seems to have passed away, for the most part and
today much space is given by the more important papers to the mining news Of
this section as it develops from day to day. The Denver Post, Tor TIT Rocky
ouna mining region,is giving generous space 20 Goldfeld and other camps
right along, and as a result is gaining a good circulation Mn Southern Nevada
Philadelphia Press for the far east, are also among the papers giving special at
tenhon to Nevada mining news all Of which is appreciated by subscribers and
advertisers in this section. Without question, the greatest gold development tin
the world al this time lis in the Nevada fields and the papers which fail to take
cognizance of it are not in touch with the worlds work, or have N appreciation
of the economic Importance Of the fact.
