GOOD WORK.

How cheering and surprising it is in
this shifty and shiftless world to find
something that can be depended on,
that will hold under any strain. We
read that the other day young baker,
who was returning with companion
after an ascent of the Plan Aiguille,
near Chamonix, in the Alps, was
caught by the branch of a tree after
falling nearly three hundred feet and
held aloft by his suspenders, to the
strength of which he owes his life,
His companion fell two thousand feet
and was picked up with nearly everN
bone in his body broken.
What an advertisement that is for
the man or company that made those
suspenders. They were of good ma
terial, faithfully put together, and they
did even more than was expected of
them. And what an advertisement 1t
is for the woman who sewed the but
tons on to which the suspenders were
attached It is a narrowing thought
that. they might possibly have been
sewed on by a man, but there Is no
need Of being narrowed by it. Proba-
bly, they were not. If they had been
there would have been a flourish of
trumpets about the feat before now.
1t is reasonably certain that they were
sewed on by some modest, faithful
woman who sewed ais well as she
could and better than she knew. 1t is
to be hoped that all women who sew
on buttons viii perceive from this in
cident that sewing buttons on well
may be much more important than il
sometimes seems to be.

AGAINsr ABsINrAE.

Opium in China, absinthe in Europe
cocaine in this country, and rum ev-
hrywhere. Truly, man is a poor critter.
But he is fighting some of his enemies.
Letters are beginning to appear in the
London press advocating the passage
of law prohibiting the sale of abb
sinthe in the British dominions. AL
ready there Is a considerable consump-
tion Of the stuff in London, chiefly in
the hotels and restaurants frequented
by foreigners, although the demand for
1t is by no means entirely confined to
those establishments. On the Continent
of Europe the movement to suppress
the vice of absinthe drinking has ac-
quired much strength. The sale Of the
drug has been stopped In Belgium, and
in the cantons of vaud and Geneva,
in Switzerland. In Alsace a movement
has been begun toward a similar end,
and in France the matter is now before
the Chambers. A special commission of
thirty-three members has reported in
favor of the total prohibition Of alb
sinthe, and q measure to that effect Is
likely to be presented to Parliament
within limited time Petitions have
been signed all over the country, and
prominent men in all divisions of So
ciety are adding their signatures,
The consumption Of absinthe in France
has risen in twenty years from 1,24S,OOC
gallons a year to 4,4S5,9Oo gallons.
Success to the anti-absinthe move
ment and all other movements against
| the foes of the human race. Life Is per.
haps hard enough anyway, but it is
made unnecessarily hard by indulgence
in more or less agreeable poisons.

If we believed that a city of Orange
would be a good thing for the town Of
Orange we would urge it wholly aside
from any ambition we might have to
see New Haven the largest city in New
England outside of Boston. The actual
welfare of the people of any Connect
cut community is of concern to the peo-
pie of every other Connecticut commun-
ity and the community which would
deliberately feed on and fatten off the
welfare of an adjoining community
would be deserving Of the severest
punishment What the people of the
town of Orange should do, If they are
not already doing so, is to study as
they have never studied before the pro-
posal which has been put up to them to
risk an Independent city existence.
1t is but a few days, as days come
and go, before october will be due and
| il is then that the voters of Orange
will be called upon to accept or reject
the municipal charter which the Cen
eral Assembly has enacted into law
subject to their approval. A mis-step
may cost them more than the traffic
will bear. A longer test of town and
borough life may of itself, and prob
ably will, blaze their way out of thu
wilderness of doubt and confusion.

NOT TOO MUCH.
Morgan.

We have been a little surprised by
some of the comments on the action of
the Democratic State convention of
Pennsylvania in voting down the reso-
luton indorsing Mr.. Bryan for the
presidency. Some seem to think that
the resolution was rejected because it
said too much. 1t called Mr., Bryan
the peerless leader" and "the Jeffer-
son and Jackson of the Democratic
party of to-day"
What's the matter with that? Isn't
Mr.. Bryan the peerless leader? Isn't
he the only leader in sight? How can
leaders who are not in sight and not
leading be his peers? And isn't he the
Jefferson and Jackson of the Demo-
cratic party of to-day? That may not
be saying much, but isn't 1t about as
near as anybody can come to saying
anything? If it Is remembered that the
Democratic party of to-day isn't what
lit used to be it win be seen that there
may not be anything hifalutin in call
| ing Mr.. Bryan the Jackson and JEFF
ferson Of it. Jackson and jefferson
might have some cause for criticism
lof the use of their names but they are
both dead, and perhaps they are glad
Of it.

A BOSTON NOTION.

Though Boston Is sometimes called
notional they have some pretty good
notions there. One of them is The
Safe Roads Association, composed
mainly of responsible citizens who
own automobiles, and having for its
mission the securing of a safe and sane
operation of these machines. Acting
in cooperation with the police officers
of the outlying towns, it has sent a
circular letter of warning to sixty
owners of automobiles, notifying them
Of a specified violation of the speed
law, and requesting each to direct
your operator to drive reasonably and
properly while in said town." And the
Association will assist in the prosecu-
ton of persistent offenders.
This is a sensible move and likely to
be an effective one. If reckless auto
mobilists find themselves looked down

My Dog and I.

When living seems but little worth
And all things 60 awry,
| close the door, we journey forth
My dog and /.
For books and pens we leave behind,
But little eareth he
But one great Joy of life is just
To be with me.
He notes by just one upward glance
My mental attitude,
And on we go past laughing stream
And singing wood.
The soft winds have a magic touch
That brings to care release.
The trees are vocal with delight;
The streams sing Peace
How good 1t Is to be alive!
Nature, the healer strong,
Has set each pulse with life athrill
And Joy and song.
Encouragement! Twas but name
And all things that annoy,
Out in the lovely world of June
Life seems but Joy.
And ere we reach the busy town.
Like birds my troubles fly,
We are two comrades glad of heart
My dog and I!

KES1UeKr,s GENEROUS crown

Kentucky is not yet wholly dry" and
perhaps not all her inhabitants who de-
serve to be killed have yet been killed,
but she isn't what She used to be, or,
at least. used to have the reputation
of being. Fast horses and faster whis-
key are not now her chief products.
She is large producer of coal. From
an output Of s,1SS.47S tons in 1896 the
production of coal in kentucky grew to
5,020,675 tons in 1900 an increase Of 57.71
per cent; and from that to 9,59S ,529
tons in 1905, an increase of 90,1S per
cent. over 1900. But the advance In min
ing coal Is not all. There is a marked
increase in the production of huor spar
and barytes, with their associated lead
and zinc ores. In fact, Kentucky is
shown to be not only the largest pro-
Queer Of fluor spar In the United States,
but one OF the largest producers Of that
mineral in the world. Steadily the State
climbs, too, to the position of one of
the worlds greatest producers of
barytes. There are at present about
forty-three counties In which CONNER
cial mining is carried on-that Is, in
Gliding those that produce fluor spar,
barytes and iron, together with those
that produce commercial coal If there
DO added those in which clay is mined,
the number OF mining counties runs
UP to orty-nine-forty-n out Of a
total of 119 counties. Shortly the mum
Der will be increased to fifty-seven. In
1896 only twenty-six counties produced
commercial coal.
This is a large country, and 1t is hard
to keep track of all that is going on
In It.

President Eliot truly remarks that
there is lack of public confidence in
the methods of administering municipal
government. Too often, however, the
fault is with the chosen administrators
and not with the system, The Boston
system, Cor example, is not substantial
" different from what 1t was in the
DAYS when Henry S. Russell was In sole
and responsible charge of the fire de-
partment. But what a long time ago

are fortunate in having Mir. Kendrie
for soloist and Augusta people who
