netism of something behind the exte- rior.
 Each is very strong, aggressive character and as vigorously fought for his own way with determination and power, naturally stirring up many strong antagonists.
 MT. Cleveland has a family of several children and MT. Rosevelet is also blessed in even a greater measure. In informal conversation the nation calls one Grover and the other Teddy, and in newspaper mention the initials c. c. and T. R. sufficiently identifies the man. Both have had careers of fascinating vicisstudes and both have risen swiftly -each via Albany. The former has passed through the flames, been severe ly scorched, but now is safely rehabili- tated; the latter is now going through the flames incident to the stacking of the industrial pace and is equally cer- tain to emerge with honor
 At the present time with a panic just over and with Presidential election just ahead, the career of Mir. Cleveland cannot fail to be particularly interest," ing because of the parallel it suggests in the conditions now existing. For ex ample: MT. Cleveland went to the White House by way of the Governors s chair at Albany. MT. Roosevelt follow ed in his footsteps. MT. Hughes is now trying to do the same thing. One can not take an invoice of the latters chance of succeeding without compar- ing his qualities with those of MT. Cleveland who did succeed. MT. Hughes has honesty and is about as little known to the country at large as Mir. Cleveland was when he went to the

 They simply proceeded 10 show that while they did not make a cross on q ballot on election day, they had fathers and brothers and men friends who did. The politicians got the surprise of their lives. Assemblymau after assemblyman, senator after senator. voted for the wom- en teachers bill, not once but twice, in spite of party lines.
 The women had simply been effectively organized and had gone about their per sonal canvass in a way unsurpassed by astute male leaders. The opposition of the 1900 men teachers simply crumbied in the face of this fact, and whether 1t was due to millinery or not. as some of their opponents alleged the result was a wom- ans victory on many firing lines in AT bany Now that the women are again pushing their measure at the state capital their opponents at least no longer under estimate their ability. and the men teach CTS are beginning to put up far more active fight.
 The women. however. simply say that their bill will go through again. and this year there is more chance of the gov ernors signing it. If he does, the women Of the United States VIII nave suceeeded in one statute book at least in having cherished new principle clearly enunei- ated by way of precedent. That is why many women, who will profit nothing by the actual measure are, ehamponing the teachers cause
 The arguments the women are advano- ing in their cause reveal many heroic conditions faced by women. The support of large families, it seems, is not an exs elusive property of the men. Many wom- en teachers there are who are the sole wage-earners for orphaned broods or in eapacitated relatives. The cost of living in New York, they say. affects them no less detrimentally than the men. In addt- ton. they say, they face the fact that. they can have no homes and families of their own and must become merely foster mothers to the states brood In other words, to do the states business they must forego their natural prerogative Of housekeeping and home-making To the man. they say, teaching is the same as a natural business employment, and thai, outside of working hours. he can have his own family like any other business man. His leadership involves no sacrifice of natural tendency.

Governors mansion in Albany and yet at present the country is only mildly excited about Mir. Hughes, while in 1884 the personality of Grover Cleveland had seized upon the imagination of the people as if a sort of telepathic epi- demic had swept the country. Wheth CT the parallel will have any further sig nificance will in due time be realized.
 MT. Cleveland offended the labor eIe- ment of the country in the great Pull troops to Chicago to rescue the city and the country from Q reign of terror and the strike was crushed. The name of Cleveland was muttered in hatred by thousands of angry men in those days and his personal popularity with the masses of laboring men was shattered. MT. Taft offended the laboring interests by his injunction decisions from the Cincinnati bench. MT Cleveland was right in the course he took and candid men will acknowledge the justice of Judge Taft's rulings. Will the latter suffer as much in the campaign to come as Mir. Cleveland did in years following 1894?
 MT. Cleveland in 1887 demanded a se- we're reduction of the tariff. It was on the eve of a Presidential election and the politicians of his party were fran tic. They put party success foremost in all things and considered MT. Cleve- lands act in forcing the issue at that time to be political suicide. At the present time, on the eve of the cam paign of 1908, there are many republi- cans who believe that the moment for tariff revision is here but the politi clans are striving to keep the issue. chloroformed until after the election.
 MT. Cleveland vitalized the Monroe doctrine in ringing message on the Venezuelan boundary dispute and by the bold stand he took compelled Eng land to recede from her insolent atti tude and to accept the doctrine in it's

A Pleasant Day.

On October II the animal box pack

place in the Baptist Church at this place
with quite number present to partici-

Nine churches cooperated and it was
indeed an enjoyable day.

Rev. A. j. Preston then conducted

the secretary read two letters, the on e

for such an expression of kindess, the
other fro m the one to whom this box
will be sent telling of his work as his
needs and asking Gods blessings on
tn Sc who would minister to his SER
wants.
The reading of these letters called
forth few touching remarks from
Rev. Preston in which he pictured the
lives of these noble soldiers of the cross
: as they struggle, toll and sacrifice in
order that they may be Instrumental in

At the close of this impressive talk

sung with the spirit and understanding

How eagerly this was watched and
how many wanted to put the first piece
into the box.
There were suits large and suits small,
shoes, underwear, hosiery, towels,
sheets, blankets. quilts and other things
too numerous to mention.
The children of this S. S. had been
invited to cooperate so they supplied the
small articles, such as thread, buttons,
needles, pins and etc, and with as much
interest as their seniors
Lets remember the children in things,
for the girls and boys of to day must be

upon their shoulders must rest the re-

horses, thrown under the heels of

the head so that his skull was
crushed and his life ended almost

his skull was fractured, the wagon

When
The Year q
Begins

One of the queerest features of the
first day of the year is the fact that 1t
has been celebrated on many different
dates. With us the year begins on
January /, according to the calen-
dar prepared by order of julius Cae-
sar, and later revised from time to
time as necessity seemed to require
Hardly month in the year but what
has been regarded at some time, by.
some people, as the first of the II,
and consequently the beginning of the
new year. Sometimes the date was
logical, determined by the position of
the sun in the heavens.
Sometimes 1t was fixed by agricultu-
raj or industrial conditions, sometimes
by a great historical event. and occa-
sionally it was merely arbitrary, de-
termined without any special reason
being assigned. At one time the
Greeks began their year September IL
at another on the first day of July,
the beginning of the Olympian games.
In what is called the Alexandrian era
the year began on August 20. One
Jewish chronology assigns October 1
as the date on which the creation Of
the world began, and consequently
adopts that New Years day. At one
time the Romans began their year on
April "a, at another on March l, and
finally as We do now. I
According to the meteoric cycle, the
year began on July Is. During the Pc
riod of Alexander's empire the COM
mencement of the year was on Sep
tfs,, ,l,a,- h. ,,fs H.
was dated from November "a. The
people of Tyre began their year on
October 10, while the so-called Sido-
nian era commenced on October 4,
and the Augustan era made February
IA the first day of the new year. The
ancient Egyptians began their year,
with the overflow of the Nile, when
ever that might occur while in India
the annual flood of the Ganges fur
nished date for popular chronology,
and the Mexicans. although they had
a complicated system of calculating
time, popularly reckoned their year
to begin with the spring planting.
The Jewish rabbis had four begin-
llngs of the year, the first OF the
month Nissan, supposed to be the date
of the Exodus; the first of Tishri,
which began the agricultural year,,
the first of Flu, the day on which tho
cattle were numbered, and the first
of Shebat, which was called the new
year for trees. Christmas day. East
er, the beginning of each solstice and
many other dates have been observed
at different times by various nations;l
even now in Russia the day of the
new year is ~ days behind that Of
our calendar, the Russians having
never adopted the Gregorian calendar,
which, indeed, did not come into gen.
eral use until about the middle of tho
eighteenth century.

Noticed the Omission.

Some dramatic authors seem to re-
gard construction as unnecessary
frills. On the first night Of the only
drama that the novelist, Miss Bradden,
wrote, a scene was introduced in which
a child was kidnapped from its mother.
At the end, when all were made happy,
so much had been left to the general
imagination that no pains had been
taken to effect the restoration of the
stolen child. OF course 1t was an un.
workmanlike lapse on the part of the
dramatist, and 1t seemed to have
passed unnoticed until 4 god leaned
over the gallery rail and solemnly in
quired: Hi! What about that kid?"
The piece was swamped in flood Of
ineXtingulshable laughter
