This is a humane age. The Bridge port Standard thinks strawberries should be treated better. It says: Strawberries must be treated scan- dalously if we can judge by the tired, travel-stained, worn-out look of those in market; evidently rushed to the front without a chance to wash up or get nights rest. We venture to say that they were not watered or other wise refreshed once on the whole way up from Texas. For they look it."

Lincoln's Last Speech.

Zone of the most beautiful and
pathetic incidents which occurred
on that fatal day, April II, 1865,

many fine and complete histories
written about Abraham Lincoln, !"
said a brilliant Washington society
woman, while talking to some
friends recently. She had been in
Washington all through those stir
ring times, and was then speaking
of some of her experiences.

incident of that day. 1t was then

with the South" the speaker

Willard, thinking we might find
some friends among the prisoners
and be of assistance to them.

the hotel, and then walked over
toward the White House. Many
people were going in that direc-

very shortly after our arrival
President Lincoln came to one Of
the front windows and addressed
the soldiers and the crowd.

spare form, and the wonderful,
benign face as ! saw it then, the
speakers voice trembled; ''in less
than twenty-four hours Lincoln

II did not hear all of his address,
as the crowd was noisy, but the
sentences with which ne closed it
will live in my memory forever.
''Lincoln leaned far out of the
window as he said:
"'Now let the band play Dixie,

to the North-but to as all. :"
"And the band played Dixie.

CONTRASTS IN oRAToRY.

lAf
With Secretary Taft speaking at
Columbus, Ohio, and President
Roosevelt holding forth at Prov
incetown, Mass, within twenty
four hours, the American people
can scarcely fail to contrast the
styles Of the two men. In gen.
eral way, there was little differ
ence in the subjects discussed by
the Secretary and President; more
over, there was little difference in
the views expressed on those sub
jects, but both orators arrived at
the same destination by widely
varying modes of expression.
The utterances of the Secretary
Of War were marked by ponder
BUSINESS of style which continued
from start to finish. His speech
read like q court record, and prob
ably his long experience as a law
yer and then as Federal Judge
had somewhat to do with the case.
Facts, dates and figures were ar
ranged in a lengthy procession.
They were clear.cut in statement
and the occasional presentment OF
theory. and argument partook OF
the same clearness. Never did the
Secretary go in for phrase turn
ing, however. He forbore to coin
catch sentences, APP b 10 isms and
epigrams. He did not undertake
to preach. He handled heavy sub.
iects and be handled them heavily.
President Roosevelt's speech, on
the other hand, bristled with rhe-
torical devices. 1t is habit OF
the President to preach, and ne
preached in his Provincetown ad-
dress. He seized b &C kneye d
truths, dressed them in fresh Ian
guage and dealt them out as though
they were hot from his intellectual
anvil. He used his familiar trick
of counterbalancing, see-sawing
between extremes to show how
straight thinker he was, as well
as how staunch a champion of the
square deal. He was always care
ful Of Scylla and Charybdis. He
employed but" frequently as his
pivot. I'VE should not adopt any

News aud Advertisements They Con-
tain Are the Greatest Danger TO

BALTIMORE. March s.--Preaching his

ing Objectionable advertisements. Taking
as his subject, spiritual Reading" espe-
oially In connection with the Lenten sea-
son, after pointing out the helpfulness Of
reading religious books, and particularly
the Bible, he said:
IT shall conclude by making a few prac-
tical suggestions:
"Rigidly exclude from your household all
books and pamphlets which are hostile TO
religion and good morals Never admit
into your homes any newspaper or periodi-
cal which ventllstes obscene news and
licentious scandals.
There Is one kind Of literature In which
we all indulge and of which we partake as
regularly and with as much relish as our
daily bread, without which life would be
dull and tedious literature which has
become almost a necessity of our daily
life. refer to the daily newspaper.
Now, there are good and bad journals, and
there are clean and unclean animals.
mo kind of literature works more mis-
chief in a community than salacious
journals. They contain not only news

Objectionable character.
"They have sensational items, which are
q snare and a stumbling block to the inno-
cent and unwarned. Many Of the youth
OF both sexes have learned from this Inn

depravity. Advertisements appear which
paint in glowing colors the attractive fea-
lures of dangerous haunts Of amusement,
Advertisements of patent medicines and
other drugs whose object is to defeat the
inexplorable laws of nature and of ma
lures God.
"As an offset to these depraved Journals.
I have known the proprietor Of an upright
paper of this state who refused an offer
of $4,000 rather than admit into the
columns OF his paper an advertisement
suggestive OF immodesty, though its in
decency was thinly yelled by ambiguous
phraseology. Would to God that all news
