Goals From a Forge
Rv I
BY J. Marvin Nichols

To be loved is deeply satisfying; to love
is to drink the sweetest nectar.
Someone has said Happiness consists
in the elimination Of our needless wants"
Don't he kidnapped-that 10 to say,
don't let somebody lug you of without a
protest.
The man was wise who set a rat-trap in
his pocket-and caught his dear wife by
the finger.
Don't quit the field when slander is rife
| lin the final shift you will be the victor.
If the strength of a thing is developed
| by use, then some mems brains are aw-
fully shrunk up.
man may be very moral and not re
| hgious-and man may be very religious
l. and not moral.
The man who needs preacher to prop
, up his piety ought not to object when
| pay day comes.
Keep the upward gaze. II turns prisons
into palaces and transforms the hoveis
! into castles.
While everything we strive for is not
good. yet everything good costs des-
perate struggle.
! Salome danced-and good old John lost
his head. II you're on these days you
know that's no fable.
Philosophize all you please, a fat purse
! and broad smile are to each other as
| cause and effect.
| One OF the prime properties OF truth is
| it's resurrective power. Crush il and Ii
Will rise again.
Our "ups and downs" are only the hills
and valleys we cross in our eternal quest
for happiness.
The city without vision-that place
without the sense OF evil within and Of
1t. That city is doomed.
| Some men are just like babies anyhow.
Carried about at the Will OF somebody
else-just to play with.
There are those who make their busi-
ness their pleasure and there are those
who make pleasure their business
It's real fact--you can't put square
peg in round hole Neither can you put
little man in big place.
Many a storm could he 40 easily avert
ed II we only watched the barometer that
hangs on the wall OF the human heart.
What would this old world be II every
body In II were just like me7' Go way
back and put that query TO yourself
Don't trade a morsel Of love for a whole
wagon-load of garbage. Some OF US have
already done that 10 our sorrow.
Because we have 20 look at a fellow
through our own spectacles. they soms-
times look mighty no count. DO you
catch on7
Just as well accept the truth and be
done with it-tne strongest will always
have the most. no matter what that most
may be.
That love is sweet that sweetly loves
beneath n cloudless sky. That love Is
great that greatly loves when storms
are raging.
Most Of this kicking against the rich
is no more than an effort To- quiet
n yearnins for gold that tugs in every
fellows breast
Just so long as society makes u TO
our interest to pretend 70 be what we

STEVENS MAY
Be PRESIDENT
OF THE B. & N.

Boston. May 17-It Is believed here that
John II. stevens, former chief engineer
or the Panama canal and recently ap-
pointed appraiser OF the properties OF the
New York. New Haven and Hartford rail-
road. is slated TO succeed Lucius Futile
as president OF the Boston and Maine
railroad.
President Tuttle is 62 years old He has
had many attractive offers 10 20 else
where, but has steadily stood by the Bos-
ton and Maine railroad, where, with the
exception OF some years on the New
York, New Haven and Hartford. he has
made his lifes work. In fact, both Mr..
Tuttle and Mr.. Mellen began their rail-
road experience on what is now the Bos-
ton and Maine system.
II is not believed by Mr.. Tuttls's friends
that he desires to take up any additional
burdens at his age and II Is thought that
he will take an early opportunity.if present
plans materialize, to enjoy the rest and
recreation OF European travel.
President Mellep is 56 years OF age and
probably has fvs OF ten years more OF
work. at what Is now the maximum OF his
tremendous force and power OF concen-
tration. lie is reaching out, however for
energetic assistants, and while Mr.. Stew
ems Is now making an inventory OF tho

and Hartford. II is I'm the natural course OF
events that Tie should be in training for

where he Is by no means novice.
II Mr. Tuttle elects a European vaca-
ton, II is the natural destiny of Mr..
Stevens training that he should take
charge OF the engineering details for
better physical union OF the Boston and
Maine and the New York. New Haven
and Hartford and II Is probable that. In
time, he will become Mr.. Tuttle's success
sor as president OF the Boston and Maine.
for II is not in contemplation that the
Boston and Maine shall he actually merg-
ed with the New York. New Haven and
Hartford at least not for some years.
All that is contemplated at the present
time is an exchange OF New Haven shab
for Boston and Maine shares

the General Electric company and his

directors wish to have him continue. In
case he resigns, the BYLAWS provide that
the president must be chosen from the
directors
The choice OF Marsden J. Perry OF
Providence as q director on Tuesday
at the annual meeting at Schenectady
gives rise to the rumor that the presi-
dency may be offered to him. one finan-
cial paper says:
Some General Electric interests see
considerable significance I'm the election
of Marsden j. Perry TO the board OF di-
rectors al Tuesdays meeting. lie is re-
garded by many az possessing admirable
qualifications for the important post Of
president of the General Electric COM
pany."

rectorate he has been actively interested ed
in the company for several years hav-
inR been on the executive COMMITTEES of

Occupants Are Thrown Out.
Supper and Social.

An automobile owned by the CromptoA
company of Crompton, figured In an ac-
cident at Centreville last evening about
7:S0 o'clock. The driver OF the car. mau
from Providence. was on his way from
Crompton TO Clyde, where he was to meet
a train. After crossing the bridge at Gen.
treville he failed to make the proper turn
and, consequently, ran into the curbing
and then into a wall.
The chauffeur and the other occupant,
who is said to be a physician from Provi-
dence, were thrown out, but both escaped
serious injury The machinery OF the au-
tomobile was badly damaged and II had to
be towed back 10 Crompton.
The cause OF the accident was the
breaking of a nut on the steering appara-
tus; and the excess speed the machine
was travelling made It impossible for the
driver to stop II in time TO avoid the acct-
dent

GOALS FROM A FORGE derg
Don't tawn--that's despisable.
Hatred is love at low tide.
Don't cringe-thats cowardly.
II you've got thinker work It.
The At survive-the unfit perish.
Lift a man up--don't drag him down.
There is debauchery OF the emotions.
Love can only find home among low
ers.
If you would really succeed, be natural.
SeIf-destruction Is inherent In every lie.
Every man ought to be bigger than the
office
Don't stand sponsor for the opinions Of
others.
Stand your ground--only the brave can
do that.
Dread yourself-that's all the foe you've
got.
It's dastardly to kill a man just to get
the spoils.
Don't preach smiles to fellow on
sweat-shop wages.
Somebody has said that hate Is love
turned wrong side out.
You may fool the other fellow but you
can't fool yourself.
How long will the world continue TO
sacrifice her saviors7
No one Is great until he feels the pangs
OF crucifixion.
Lots OF fellows expect to get to heaven
on a scalpers ticket.
You can invariably measure the great
ness of a man by his enemies
over the bodies OF he- martyrs the
world has stepped 10 Seedom.
Don't be forever bounding and spying
they are alike detestahle.
You can he patron without being a
funkey for gang OF grafters.
Rid defiance 10 old age-hold 10 the
spirit OF your youthful days.
There are but few central suns-the
most OF us are only satellites.
II takes more force to start a thing
than IL does 20 keep II going.
Sport the sort Of kindness that laughs
at the worlds rough usage.
A real comradeship is the place whore
hearts come TO know each other.
Many times ~ Is hard 10 tell love-

An unmasked rogue r. infinitely less
dangerous than n masked gentleman.
