THE CURE OF WORRY.
Clear, Simple Common Sense Applied
to the Business Of Life.

There are two reasons why man
should not worry, either one Of which
must operate in every instance-frst,
because he cannot prevent the results
he fears; second, because he can pre-
vent them. II he Is powerless to avert
the blow, he needs perfect mental con-
centration to meet 1t bravely, to light
en- its force, to get what salvage he
can from the wreck, to sustain his
strength at this time when he must
plan new future. If he can prevent
the evil he fears, then he has no need
to worry, for he would by so doing
be dissipating energy in his very hour
Of need.
To cure oneself of worry is not an
easy task. 1t is not to be removed in
two or three applications Of the quack
medicine Of any cheap philosophy, but
1t requires only clear, simple common
sense applied to the business of life.
Man has no right to waste his own en-
ergies, to weaken his own powers and
influence, for he has inalienable duties
to himself, to his family, to society and
to the world.-William George Jordan
in '"rhe Kingship Of Self Control"

larly enlisted men will be taken, as
the orders issued by the adjutant
general forbid substitutes.

"THE BLUE DANUBE"
Odd Way In Which the Beautiful
Waltz Was Written.

Wditz was written.
1t was a linen cuff and the quick
thought Of the woman who wore 1t
that gave US one Of the prettiest Of
the tuneful Strauss waltzes. Johann
Strauss and his wife were one day en-
joying a stroll in the park at Schonau
when suddenly the composer exclaim-
ed: "My dear, 1 have a waltz In my
head. Quick-give me a scrap Of pa
per or an old envelope. I must write
1t down before l forget It" Alas,
after much rummaging Of pockets 1t
was found that neither Of them had a
letter, not even a tradesman's bill.
Johann Strauss music is considered
light, but 1t weighed as heavy as lead
on his brain until he could transfer 1t
to paper. His despair was pathetic.
At last a happy thought struck Frau
Strauss. She held out q snowy cuff.
The composer clutched 1t eagerly, and
in two minutes that cuff was manu-.
script. Its mate followed. Still the in
splratlon was incomplete. Strauss was
frantic and was about to make wild
dash for home with the third part of
his waltz ringing uncertainty in his
head. His own linen was limp, colored
calico. Suddenly his frau bethought
herself Of her collar, and in an instant
the remaining bars Of "The Blue Dan
ube" decorated its surface.

A STUFFED EMPEROR.
Fate of VaIerian of Rome, Captured by
the Persians.


Fate of vaIerian of Rome, Captured by
the Persians.
One of the most remarkable stuffed
skins on record was that OF Valerlan,
emperor Of Rome, who was taken pris-
oner and afterward kept in chains by
Sapor, king Of Persia. He was either
killed In tumult or by order of his
conqueror, who was perhaps fearful of
losing his valuable living trophy, In
the year 269. The body of the dead
emperor was treated with no more
dellcacy than when 1t held the spark
Of living one. 1t was skinned. The
hide after being tanned was stuffed,
painted red and suspended in the chief
temple of the capital 1t remained
there for many years and was the
popular spectacle for holiday makers
and visitors from the country. But 1t
was put to more important ends than
this. 1t was made diplomatic engine
Of much Significance and efficiency. In
after times it often happened that the
Roman ENJOYS at the Persian court
had Misunderstanding more or less
serious with the government to which
they were temporarily accredited
When these ambassadors from Rome
grew arrogant in their demands, it was
the custom to conduct them into the
presence Of the stuffed skin of the ex
emperor of Rome, where they were
asked If humility did not become them
at sight Of such a spectacle.

Evansville, Ind, July 6.-Before a
crowd of almost 10000 people at the
Chautauqua assembly here this af-
ternoon, Governor Joseph w. Folk Of
Missouri delivered an address upon
the Fourth of July.
He said in part.
81 believe the real work Of the
next few years is to be done in the
states. These are the great expert
mental stations of representative gov
ernment and they have been most
neglected.
"The states are supreme in their
sphere, limited only by their own con-
stitutions and by the powers which
they have delegated to the federal
government, which has been given
such an impetus of late, there is dam
ger to our institutions and integrity
and dignity of these states, so me-
cessary to the preservation of the
ideas OF government that were crys-
talized in the formation of the re-
public. Nowhere is this encroachment
on the rights of the state more mark
ed than in the wholesale notification
of the state laws by federal sub
jects without hearing and before trial.
No Desire to be Unjust.
1.-THE result is, unless the consent
of a railroad can be obtained to
pending legislation the state becomes
powerless. No good citizen desires
to be unjust to the railroads. But
that they must be regulated and that
the states should not be left as mere
subjects of their benevolence all must
admit. No one could object to a
court, state or federal, declaring the

FOLK ON STATE RIGHTS AND RAILROADS

statute unconstitutional If found to
be so after hearing. But there should
be protests against. statutes of the
states being suspended as presump-
lively bad until this is determined.
This is like Furnishing man first and
trying him afterward. A number of
important laws of Missouri are now
embalmed by the federal Injunction
veto. In the course of years, when
the cases are tried, the court will
probably hold they are valid, but they
might as well be killed as to be chlo-
formed by injunction until their va
lidity is gone.
Not Prcjudiccd Against Railroads.
1.-THE people of Missouri are not
prejudiced against railroads as such,
and the same sentiment of justice
which brought the freight-rate law
and the 2-cent fare law into being
will cause their repeal If they are
found to be unfair. But the people
of Missouri object to federal court
despotically enjoining the state from
enforcing its laws before they have
been declared invalid. This Is mere
ly a sample Of what is going on all
over the country. If these conditions
continue, as they will without a Wig
orous protest from those who believe
in the rights of the states to control
their local affairs, state sovereignty
will soon be mere theory. This is
the greatest nation in the world
great because it is an "indissoluble
union of independent states" Let US
keep It so, for its decline will COM
mence when the self-government of
the states, the source of its power, is
destroyed"

DROWNED HERSELF AND BABES
Mother Fastened Two Little Ones Gar.
ments to Her Own.

Dover, N. j., April Having fas-
tened their garments securely to her
own, Mrs. Otto Britting carried her
two little children into Shongum lake,
where all three were drowned.
The three had died in shallow wa.
ter and the mothers body was in a
STOPPING position, as though she had
bent over to place her head under the
water. With her right arm her g.
months-old baby George was elapsed
to her breast, while its sister Grace, 8
years old, was held firmly between the
dead mothers knees. AS thought to
make sure that the children would not
escape her even in death, Mrs. Brit
ting had used scfety pins to secure the
clothing of the little ones to her own.
Mrs. Britting is said to have been pas
sionately fond of her children, and her
act is ascribed to a mental trouble.
