FAST OCEAN TRAVEL,

Two things Of some importance to
the ooean-going traffic of the civilized
world appear to be established by
the Cunard liner Lusitania's latest trip
which was ended the other day on her
arrival in New York. First she can
make the voyage Of 5000 miles in
less than i've days; and. second. she
can travel at the rate Of twenty five
knots an hour. BY doing that and a
trffie better on this recent westward
trip she covered the distance between
Daunt's Rock, England. and Sandy
Hook. in this country, in four days,
nineteen hours and thirty-six minutes,
beating her own record by thirty-two
minutes.
Her sister ship. the Mauretania. will
come over next and that she will make
as good time seems likely from her
previous trips. Certainly she may be
looked upon to cut the voyage down
below five days. 50 that II nothing
more is to be expected from these
two ships which are now beyond
doubt the swiftest In the world. they
have at least made 1t possible for
travellers who are anxious to make fast
time across to cross the ocean with
in the period specified. That the
effort to shorten the voyage will not
end with them, however. 10 q fore
gone conclusion.

Say 10 them that are Of fearful heart,
Be strong. fear not.-Isaiah xxxv:4
Tho most extensive Of all the NOR
bid mental conditions which reflect
themselves so disastrously on the hu-
man system IL the state Of fear" says
DR.. William H. Holcomb, one of the
prominent physicians Of the country.
TT has many degrees Of graduations. I"
he continues. from the state of ex-
treme alarm. fright or terror down to
the slightest shade Of apprehension of
impending evil But all along the line
1t IL the same thing-a paralyzing i'm
preston upon the centers of life which
can produce through the agency of the
nervous system q vast variety OF NOR
bid symptoms In every tissue OF the
body"
Psychologists tell US that fear i'm
poverishes the blood by interfering
with assimilation and cutting OF nu-
triton. It lowers mental and physical
vitality and weakens every element OF
strength.
1t demoralizes character, destroys
ambition. induces or causes disease,
paralyzes happiness in self and others
and blocks achievement.
The most deadly thing for marring
human lives is fear.
And 1t Is SO Utterly useless. It can
do nothing for us but harm. With
right understanding fear is unavailing.
The worst foes to overcome. one tina:
makes outside obstacles dwindle to
pigmies in comparison, is this enemy,
fear.
Conscious power exists within the
mind of every sentient being. Some
times its existence may be unrealized.
but it is there. 1t Is there to be de-
veloped and brought forth, like the
culture Of that beautiful flower. the
orchid. To allow 1t to remain dormant
is to place ones self in obscurity. to
trample on ones opportunity. to
smother ones faculties.
This conscious power clears away
the mists, routs fear. points out to one
the star Of his destiny, and bids him
hitch his wagon" thereto. If he allows
fear to hold him and whisper, "You
may fail-wait." he hesftates, weakens
himself. and the chance slips away.
Fight fear as zealously as you would
fight tuberculosis or typhoid. 1t has
destroyed more vitality and energy
than both combined.
Down with fear! Trample it under
foot as you would a viper, and let the
conscious power within your soul stand
forth boldly and lead you to success
and happiness.
1t is matter of thought, Of WILL and
Of development.

He took the picture. gazed upon 1t.

Meanwhile he fumbled in a pocket
