ANOTHIR.

Yesterday we made note of the fact that there is a wise man in Kansas. To-day we make note of the fact that there is a wise man in Pennsylvania. He is a young man, and he lives in Pittsburg, which hasn't succeeded in making itself famous for it's wise young men. He goes to school in Pittsburg- to one of MT. Carnegie's schools. And he has room according to his strength.
 Mir. Carnegie's schools of science are besieged with hundreds of applications that cannot be granted; but the school of bricklaying, with a fifteen-dollar-a- day "professor" in charge and accom- modations and facilities for one hun dred students, has only one pupil, Dan- iel Chisholm, upon whose instruction the entire attention of the faculty is centered. The instruction fee is only ten cents a day.
 Daniel Chisholm knows when he is well off, and if he doesn't change, the girl who marries him will be well off A bricklayer taught and trained as he will be will not be out of a job when he wants one.

THE RISING TAFT.

Those of his old college friends who declined to believe that Secretary Taft would return from his trips to Panama, Porto Rico and Cuba ready to take the stump on his own presidential behalf, even though President Roosevelt de- sired it, were at the same time con- vinced that he would go on quietly do- ing his work without the aeeompani- ment of a brass band until the people had chance to further size up his in- teresting personality in their own com mon sense way. Already one effect of the Taft horse sense method has pro- duced q result. Ohio will be for him as a presidential aspirant or rather candidate, for Foraker as senator and Harris for governor. Thus the in- evitable is again worked out.
 We usually go to our friend Life" for the laugh which cheers and carries us through the annoyances of life, but occasionally we are caught up and held attentively by its sober seriousness which its keen sense of wit Eliminates. For example, we find these sensible re- marks in it's current isue: There is a great deal of comfort to be had from the contemplation of Secretary Taft. If he shall be our next president we will get man of remarkable qualif1ca- tions to fill the place that Mir Roose- welt will vacate. He is good medicine; a poultice, a tonic and good for the nerves There is confidence that if he becomes president he will not let go of any Improvement or reform that has been gained, nor yet agitate the coun- try by fears of what he may attempt. Folks admire his ability, value his services, respect his character and like the temper and the friendly nature of him. old fashioned people think of him as they do of Roosevelt, and as they are getting to think of Hughes, as man who probably says his prayers. They like that kind of man, and all ways did and, once they tie up to him, will trust him in the dark, and follow him, if necessary, through good many lndscretions, just as they follow Roosevelt"
 Big Bill Taft will, if nominated for the presidency earn the distinction be- cause he is just the man. he is. There has never been in public life a man more naturally welded to doing the things set him to do easily and pa- tiently He does not call it work, but he would call 1t work to shirk any part of it. Hopeful and optimistic, unself- ish and contented with his lot, the next year, which is sure to be a trying one will find him just the same. And if his candidacy is followed by his election, he will take with him to the White House the same clean, sunny bill of health. "Life" understands him anyway, and that is a credit to it's
 sense of humor.

FEW oCCULr ENouGH.

MT. Carnegie says money doesn't bring happiness, but he does admit that a Competence" is a good thing to have. He does not deny that he has competence, or that he means to keep one, in spite of his efforts to avoid the disgrace of dying rich. Mir. Carnegie's apparent attitude toward money Is rather high-toned, but it doesn't reach up to the height of the attitude toward money maintained by the Mahatma, Agamya Gain Paramahamsa, leader of the occult society known as the Yellow Robe Ascetics of India, who has just come to this country. He says: T do not believe that success at material in- ventions and the making of money pro- duces happiness. What is money? I care not for it. I never seek money. It must seek me. My faith does not support itself by seeking financial aid, but instead entirely by voluntary sub scriptions. In this country your soci- cities and beliefs begin first by seeking subscriptions and crying for money, money, money"
 As the Mahatna is 90 years old and apparently happy. his theory seems to have worked well in his case. But we cannot oonscientiously advise every body to stop seeking money and feel that it must seek them. Few are "oc- cult" enough to safely act that way toward money.

CITE IT TIME.

Connecticut's legislature works hard enough, if noise and hustle are indica-
 tions of industry, but it has managed to get itself accused of not accomplish ing much. It is, perhaps, too early in the session to call it inefficient It has been sitting only four months, and four months is only a third of year. Per- haps when it gets through it will be found to have done more than some now think 1t will do. Tt cannot equal the record of the legislature of Minne-
 sota in the matter of time, because that legislature has just adjourned, but it may in the matter of achievement, if it takes time enough. The Minnesota legislature considered over two thou sand bills during the session and passed many measures of importance. Some of the more interesting of these
 were the reducing of rates on grain, coal, lumber and live stock an average of 10 per cent, the passing of a two- cents a mile passenger rate law, the abolishing of railroad passes, the pass ing of a reciprocal demurrage law, the creating of a permanent tax commis- sion, the a'bolishing of private banks,
 the adoption of an entire insurance reform programme, including codes foI fraternal and assessment life associa- tions, the establishing of state board of immigration the abolishing of high school fraterAities, and last but not

WHT THEr DON'T SELL IN W41Es.

WHY THEY DON'I SELL IN WALES.
 Wales is a musical country, but Unit ed States pianos are not in favor there. The United States consul at Cardiff gives some very good reasons why they are not, The prevailing method of sell ing pianos in Wales is the "hire-pur- chase" system. The buyer can secure g piano and pay for it in 12, 24 or 36 monthly payments, or on special terms even more accommodating. Under this system an ss0 piano costs the buyer S1O5 and proportionately on up. Such sys- ten makes the plano trade in Wales a business that must be carefully watch ed, and of necessity the higher-grade pianos costing more than $500 find com pa ratively little sale. Several of the dealers in Cardiff, which is the largest city and best business center in Wales, imported United States pianos in the past, but they have now practically ceased to import them, and the agen- cies for high grades have been sur rendered. It is further pointed out that United States pianos fail to meet the requirements of the climate in Wales, and this Is true of all the Unit ed Kingdom. That seagirt land has a very moist atmosphere, with about 250 cloudy days in the year, and the brightest days are seldom as dry as they are in the United States. Added to this is the custom of the people to eccnomize on fuel. All winter long many a cottage seldom has more than one fire, and even among the well-to-do househeating as practiced in the United States is practically unknown.
 Almost of course, Made in Germany" comes in triumphantly. German manu- lecturers have studied the market by asking for plans and prices and manu- featuring an instrument to suit the To- cal taste and demand, and the German article--a good overstrung instrument can be profltably sold for S145.
 l The consul gives some advice which
 seems to be sensible. He says that United States manufacturers in the
 piano line, as well as others, should
 send experts to study the British mark
 ct in order to manufacture the article
 that will meet the local demand, in.
 stead of wasting money in foistina

THEY DON'T GO TO MEETING.

New York is often called a great anu a wicked city. It is certainly great, and they certainly don't go to meeting there as they ought to-. It has just been discovered that in New York only one person in nine goes to church. This discovery reveals great change. Fifty years ago in New York there was about one Protestant church for each 1000 of the population. Now in many districts there is less than one for each 10000. The average is one church for each $500. While the pop ulation is rapidly increasing, Protes- tant church attendance is steadily di- minishing. Nor do these churches alone suffer from popular indifference to the claims of religion. A committee of the Federation of Churches in New York finds that 63 per cent. of the Jew ish families never see the inside of synagogue, while 2S per cent of Prot estant families and 5.7 per cent of Ro- man Catholic families are non-church- goers.
 What can be done about such con dition of things? Of late the churches in New York and elsewhere have made efforts to be more entertaining and helpful, especially more entertaining. One of the reasons given for the neg leet to go to church is that the broth erhood of man. and the equality of all men before God" is not truly re- fiected in the churches.
