The Key to Real Success.
". ID. Howells. I'm Harper's Magazine for
Santap,har

A prime qualification for success In any
art, trade, or profession is the love of il,
though love alone will by no means bring
success In 1t. The love must be reciprocal:
hat Is, the vocation must desire it's fol-
lower, for reasons when there is no find-
ing out. and which mus remain as much
a mystery to him as TO any of his witt
nesses. she was Noteworthy says
Heine, in treating OF a more passional
case. land he loved her; but he was not
Noteworthy. and she loved him not. The
fond youth, university-bred or seIf-ma6e,
may rave ever so great a desire tor jour-
nalism, but journalism will nave no de-
sire for him, unless he has the peculiar
charm for 1t which commands affection In
all cases. He can only prove the fact by
trying. and by longing to try with a long
ing that excludes the hope OF every other
reward beside. the favor OF tine art he
wishes to spouse. Riches, fame. power
may be In the event. but they are not to
be In the quest. The wish to succeed In
1t for it's OWL sake must be his first mo-
tive. and the sense of success in II must
be his first reward; those other things
must be left to add themselves. without
his striving FOR them. SO far as lie strives
for them. they Will alloy and dilute his
journalistic success.

The Story Of Starlight.
the New York Sur

August Belmont. president OF the
Jockey club. at a dinner in New York
said of racing:
Racing Is honestly conducted in the
main. The stories hat one hears about
1t are rather absurd. They are like
the story of Starlight.
"Once there was a group of sports
men who were all quite broke. They
must, however, get into the races. And
one at a time they presented them
selves at the paddock gate:
81 am the owner of Starlight the
first said. He was well dressed and
imposing. They believed and passed
him in.
II am Starlight's trainer said the
second. His red face and bluff man
ner bore out mis- story and they ad-
mitted him.
The third man, small and thin. next
appeared:
".Starlight's Jockey he said short
ly, and hurried through the gate.
The fourth and last man OF the
group was very shabby indeed.
well, who are your they said
impatiently, when he presented him
self.
81 am Starlight was the meek re-
ply."

Ate $50 Worth Of Peaches.

From the Chicago Evening Post.
The late William G.. Whitney wanted
to do something out Of the ordinary
when he gave his first cabinet dinner as
a member of President Cleveland's cab
met. He secured the markets of Wash
ington for delicacies. For fruit. he de-
cided he would have peaches.
1T was In the middle or February, and
there were no peaches In Washington.
He found a man I'm New York who said
he could get some, and Whitney ordered
several baskets.
The dinner was a great success. In
discussing 1t next day Judge Lamar
said:
Those peaches were fine. Mr.. Whit
ney. Where did you get them"
I'm New York." Mr.. Whitney said.
"a man there found them for me"
Peaches In February are certainly a
great treat continued Lamar. III Il
is a air question. how much did they

They cost s4s a Dozen" said Whit
ney.
'And did President Cleveland eat n
OF them? He is SO found Of fruit"
did lie eat any of them?" exploded
Whitney. II thought he rather crowd

OPTIMISTIC ON COPPER.
j. Park Charming Sees Bright Times
Ahead for Metal.
(polIock specIal WIG. }


Boston, Jan. l3.--The News Bureau
today quotes J. Park Charming, min
ing engineer and president OF Tenn.
Copper Co., as saying: 'Basically the
copper situation Is no different than IL
was year ago. Tho legitimate de-
mand IL, and Will continue to increase
as electrical development continues to
increase in the country and at the same
time the production Will only about
keep pace with the Increased demand.
AS has been pointed out the supply of
raw material, that Is, of copper ores.
Is limited and is not, and cannot, as Is
the case of iron ore, be estimated at
hundreds OF millions of tons. What
the average price OF copper for the year
1908 will be is hard to tell, though 1t
seems quite likely that before the end
OF the year, i6 or II cents may be ex-
pected for the metal. While the law
OF supply and demand undoubtedly
governs the immediate price OF copper.
ultimately the cost OF production is
enc of the personal Items. The cost
of producing copper has unquestion-
ably advanced two cents In the last
three or four years. and therefore to
make even the same returns, price OF
II cents today would only equal that
of 10 cents three or four years ago.
1t seems quite likely that there will be
no Increase III inc production Dy any
OF the closed mines unless copper shall
have gone beyond 10 cents"
