THE M0YETT MYSTERY
ATALE WORTH READING,

Most people with red blood in their
veins enjoy detective story, providing,
of course, that it has originality of plot
and is told in graphic and interesting
way. Such story is 1.-The Moyett
Mystery" by Nevil Monroe Hopkins,
which will be found in the May number
of Lippincott's Magazine. The detec-
tive who figures therein, Mason Brant,
does some wonderful things, but not so
wonderful as to tax the credulity of the
reader, who is shown in detail the detec-
tive's method of work, and how he ac-
complished things by the aid of quick
ness of perception, sound, logical way
of reasoning things out, and a good
deal of horse sense. In solving the
Moyett mystery, Brant found it neces-
sary to be on his mettle at every stage
of the game, for the man he was pitted
against-the ''villain"-was genius in
a way, and had no intention of answer
ing for his crimes. There is an uncom-
monty pretty love story woven in the
narrative, but this doesn't retard the
action, which is brisk all through. In
addition to this novelette,, there is the
usual complement of short stories,
essays, and poetry, all of which are
quite up to the usual high standard
maintained by Lippincott's Magazine.

Didst fondly dream the sun would never

DOst fear tol lose thy way Take courage

Learn thou to walk by faith, and not

Thy steps will guided be, and guided

With lessons none to learn, and naught

No help! Nay, tits not SO;
Though human help be far, thy God is

And He will guide thee, light thee, help

MILLIONS FOR MUSIC.

An Industrious calculator has esti-
mated that $40, ,0OO,OO were spent last
winterby the people of America for the
enjoyment of serious music-music.
that is to say, as it is known in our con-
cert halls and opera houses; not the
music of the comic opera stage and the
vaudeville house. The figure is more
likely an underestimate than an exag-
geration. Few social pneuomena of re-
cent years in this country have been
more remarkable than the enormous in
crease In the popular demand for music
OF the better class. Ten years ago the
works of Wagner, of Beethoven, OF
Schubert, of Schumann, of Tschai.

mind. to the vague and unattainable
limbo of classical" music; today, one

SUGGESTS THAT THE
YEAR BEGIN MAY

The Interpreter" writing in the
May American Magazine, suggests that
the new year ought to begin Nav l
rather than January I. He says:
IF an arrangement could be made
with the almanac-makers l would be in
favor of having the year begin with the
first of May.
"On the first of January 1 have no
real sensation of the beginning of a new
period. its starting of a new deal. >
Between the last day of December
and the first day of January there
exists no substantial difference. Nv
heart does not signify by single throb
that 1T is aware of the change. Nature
does not turn over in its sleep when the
whistles blow and the bells ring to an
nounce the artificial dawn of the artifi-
cial year, or disturb the snow blanket
under which it has lain inanimate for a
month or more. On the other hand we
spontaneously signalize the arrival of
the Spring by a revolution in our
thoughts, our manners, our physical
relations to the world, our clothes, our
houses and our habits. Nature, con-
temptuous of the astronomers, shakes
offits cold lethargy and gives us happy

how the change ] suggest could be

SOME JOLTS TO MR.. CITIZEN.
fwest Point Weekly News.)

The citizens o. any prosperous
town are always public spirited and
united. Stand together, work for
the interests of the whole town. AL
ways stand ready to do your part.
Don't grumble and spend your time
in prophesying failures but help to
make every enterprise a success, be
it great or small. Be energetic and
enterprising and your example will
be initiated.
Our idea of good citizen, and we
are glad there are many in this COM
munity,is one always ready to give oc-
cording to his means to community
enterprises. He takes stock in them
all, and doesn't lose his faith if an
occasional venture proves bad. He
is not afraid to buy real estate and
to pay what it is worth. He talks
up his town at home and abroad.
Thinks it is the healthiest place on
earth. Beleiveing it to be destined to
be the biggest city in its section,
and wants to be buried there when
he dies. And he's worth a whole
regiment of the lukewarm kind.
The progress of towns is measured
by the public spirit of their inhabi-
tants. Men whose only interest is
in the success of their individual
b Isiness may make money for them
selves but they cannot build success
tul towns any more than pile of
stones can furnish sustenance for
growing plants. Never forget YOU
are part of the town, and that your
own department helps to make up
the strangers estimate of the place.
If you have the means invest in
something that will give somebody
employment. Do not kick at pro-
posed improvement simply because
it is not at your door.
The man who makes money in a
community has a duty to perform to
that community. 1t may be that he
has made his money by his super
lor business ability, aud that he
would have done as we'll anywhere.
That does not alter the case. If his
gifts are great his responsibility is
equally as great. No man was placed
on earth for the sole purpose of
making money and the man who
has this as his ideal had better never
have been born. 1t is not an act of
charity, but the performance of a
simple duty, for the man who
has made money to pass little
OF it on for the benefit of the
community, even though he never ex-
poets to see dollar of his contribu-
ton back.
Said a well known business man
to US the other day: "It wouldn't
hurt you to occasionly mention our
business in the paper. 1t would help
to fill up, you know" Yes, we
might do it. We haven't the least
idea on earth that it would hurt us,
and it would as he suggests, help
to fill up. We might do all this, but
at the same time we do not have
to do it unless we feel like it. 1t
would not hurt him, either, to come
around and say: "Give me a column
or half column of space for an ad-
vertisement, and here is the money
for it." BY doing this he would
become deserter to that grand army
of deadheads who expect the news
papers to continually note the i'm
provements they make by giving
them free puffs, and for which they
never pay cent. 1t is high time
for all classes to learn that news
paper is business enterprise, the
same as dry goods store or grocery,
run for a living for its owner.

KEEP SMILING.

Although the heavy earth clouds lower,
With sometimes an unlooked-for
shower,
Don't weep. Rise up assert your powerl
And though misfortune seems your
dover,
Keep smiling!
For things will sometime come your way,
Misfortunes are not here to stay;
That smile will just ''strike in some day,
And happiness have full sway
Keep smiling!

A woSIAN,s WAR.
(By NJ. Quad.)

(By NJ. Quad-)
Fifteen years ago there appeared in
old who gave the name of the Baroness
stem. and who claimed to be the
WIDOW of a German Baron, who had
oeen deceased d couple of years. She
spoke German, English, French and
spanish She had three or four SER
wants, lots of baggage, and seemingly
no end of money. The baroness made
such an appearance that she would
nave been received in the best of So
ciety for what she claimed to be, but
she did not seek it. On the contrary,
she persfstently refused invitations
and explained to all that she was on
mission. Instead of seeking society
she sought capitalists and spectators.
During the three months she remained
in the metropolis, with frequent visits
TO washington, she had interviews
with half a dozen leading capitalists
and as many members of congress
Notwithstanding the front put on by
the baroness, the police put her down
as an adventures. They had it from
the German minister at Washington
that there had never been a Baron
Stein in Germany. They had 1t from
q steamship company that she had
come to New York from Rio, instead
OF Hamburg. They logged her about
and made sure that she was putting up
some sort of a job, but they could
not find out what. Then they called
d her motel ana maze Dull ShS
was threatened with arrest, or at least
told that she was under surveillance
and had better have a care. The
baroness didn't break down and shed
tears and promise to leave the country.
On the contrary she saw the bluff and
went one better. She gave the detec-
tives such a raking down that they
were glad to fee her presence. Soon
thereafter they got hints from men
higher up to leave the woman alone.
and from thence on they paid no more
attention to her.

passed primarily, in. the interest of labor
than are the statute books of Kansas
The dignity of 1ab6rSds nowhere honored
more generally or more heartily than in
this commonwealth. In thus honoring
labor the people of this state have. hon
ored themselves. Among the many enact
ments which grace our statute books Is
one providing THAT the first Monday of

and the same is hereby declared to be
