,cided in favor of the company, as
seems most probable, the benehclai

important. There is large sums OF

hands of the court pending the decls-

consumers or TO the company and Ihis

prominent men continue. Today M

Congo Annexed to Belgium.

The Belgian press welcomes the
end of the agitation of the Congo ques
ton with expressions of relief and as
surance that Belgium will demonstrate
to the world her power to humanely
and wisely govern the African coun-
try. The Independence Beige says
that the senate's concurrence for an
neXation is certain, and that, there
fore, the grand work accomplished
by King Leopold will not be lost to
Belgium"
Tie Derniere Heure declares 1--WE
must obliterate the reign of twenty
bloody years, wipe out hatred, dissi-
pate distrust and prove to the world
that the Congo's woes and ills are
over forever"
Other newspapers point out that the
Congo debt difficulties will certainly
be adjusted by parliament and de-
clare that financial fears are unnec-
essary.
The annexation of the Independent
State had been received by the pub
lie generally either with Indifference
or the opinion that the Congo would
prove burden upon the country.

The Democratic state convention

aJed him for reelection with a rush
after remarkable demonstration.
When the rollcall of counties was

France a Sympathetic Spectator.

Although France is watching with
interest the Holland-Venezuelan situa
tion on account of her own troubles
with the South American republic, 1t
can be said authoritatively that she
does not intend to mix in any way in
the present controversy. If the Unit
ed States, as the recognized corrector
of Venezuela, has transferred the pow
er of punishment to Holland, Holland
is quite capable of acting and France
will be sympathetic spectator.
There is some conviction there in
well-informed circles that it would be
unwise for Holland to land troops in
Venezuela, as this action would i'm
mediately be signal for patriotism
and result in the uniting of the Cas-
troites and those who oppose Castro
for the defense of the country. 1t is
believed an effective blockade would
be more potent and successful.

Making Money by Giving Advice.

'N'NJ W SlNlI4 HuNlCCs
Human nature has been very much
the same since the beginning. AMI
there have always been philosophers
and givers of advice. Recently there
nave been translated from monuments
in western Asia, believed to be 5000
years old, tabloid talks for the benefit
of mankind which, but for greater dig
nifty, in phrasing are not unlike the
sentences of the young men ami

In the time of Ptah-Hetop, who
was either " perfect feudal lord
or had sufficient influence to get that
description of himself chiseled in eu-
during stone, it was written
IF thou desrest that thy conducr
should be good, keep thyself from an
attack of bad humor. 1t is fatal
malady. 1t causes wife and husband

BE not of irritable temper in re-
gard to thy neighbors.

In the time of Ptan-Hetop these
things were engraved laboriously ~
on monuments and read by persons
who happened along or came especi-
ally to acquire merit by gaining wis
dom. Today they are printed in
thousands of one-cent newspapers
and ten-cent magazines and scattered
over the face of the civilized earth
so that he who runs cannot escape
reading them. But just as it befel
i'm the days of "the perfect feudal
lord" they serve chiefly, to give EN-
ployment to formulators of advice
rather than to prevent any one from

bors or wearing the smile that does
not come off during the time of his
earthly existence.
But giving advice is not wholly
Improbable. Doubtless the thinkers
who were employed to cut their max
inns into the monuments of western
Asia 5000 years ago were paid, AMI
were accustomed to let their minds
dwell upon the pay rather than {
