The Man Who Acts.

Every institution wants him. He
is not looking for positions, positions
are looking for him. He does not
complain, he acts. His accomplished
results speak more loudly in his
favor than acres Of subsidized news
papers. What the world wants,
what the world rewards, is the man
who acts. Discouragements and
failuresare meaningless nothings to
him; results are the substantial
things for which he strives and at
tains. There is a settled air of
assured success in his manners and
movements. There. is no trouble
in selecting him from crowd. He
can be picked out just as unerringly
as his opposite, who abides with
encouragement and failure, they
leave more attractive imprint on
the oountenance. Men who do
things in industrial, commercial
and financial life are as scarce as
their opposites are plentiful. The
tree of opportunity, heavy with
golden fruit, is ever waiting for
the man who does things. Oppor-
tlnities are not scarce, they are
plentiful, never more plentiful since
history was written. They await
the poor boy who does things with
out looking at the clock. People
who are always looking at the clock
never amount to much of anything.
Men who do things never consult
the time to see if they can stop;
they know time was made for.
Islaves" not for virile men who en-
Enthusiastically do things. Employees
who frequently consult the clock.
will always be employees with no
hope of rising. The man who does
things may in his absorption forget
his meals or his bed. but this oppos-
lite will be ever ready for both or
either. Concentration thought
land absorption in intfexible purpose
make.sthe man l5tse dgoes things.

A Successful chautauqua.

Probably one of the most succ ess-
full Chautauquas that will be held
in Iowa this year, closed its sessions
in this city Sunday evening. @.
At the conclusion of the opening
exercises, mentioned by, us last week,
Judge Blair, in a few well chosen
words, introduced DR.. S. Parks Cad
man of Brooklin, New York. Mr..
Cadman pleased, instructed and de-
lighted those who were fortunate
enough to hear him. The announce
ment later on that he would be with
US again next year was greeted with
hearty and sincere applause.
On the evening of the first day of
the Chautauqua, George z. Garrett
son, the magician, and the Sterling
Jubilee Singers entertained the
large audience to the satisfaction Of
everyone. Mr.. Garretson did many
clever things, and the Jubilee Sing
ers were good types Of happy, JOY
Gus, negro songsters. Brooks Fletch-
er, a Cleveland newspaper man, was
the lecturer Of the evening. He was
introduced by Rev.. w. II. Ensign
and handled his subject, "The
Martyrdom Of Fools" in an earnest
and radical manner. His talk was
a red hot mixture Of truth and de.
nunciation. Such talks undoubted-
ly do some good, and when proper.
ly understood are not productive Of
pessimism. Everyone should know
\ it is that as easy to denounce con.
dition as it is to destroy thing;
and as hard to outline what will
produce good results, as tits to con.
struct something new and beautiful
