comes his resistance and offers the sugar

ATTENTION,

A good memory is nothing more
nor less than evidence of the
habit of paying attention. We re-
member things that make deep i'm
preston in our minds. and the clear
ness of the memory and the lasting
qualities of the impression depend on
the clearness of perception in, the first
place. We remember name, when
the name has been impressed on us.
either by some striking quality in the
name itself, close attention and asso-
citation, or by its constant repetition.
People sometimes wonder at tn,
average politicians memory for
names. 1t is accounted for by the
fact, that politicians recognize the
necessity of knowing men familiarly.
and pay close attention to names and
faces when introduced to strangers.
An observant person will hear a poll
tician address newly made acquajnt.
ance several times Immediately after
the introduction. always pronouncinl
his full name carefully, and scrutiniz-
ing his face TO catch the changing ex-
pressions. The result is a deep and
lasting impression on the mind-a
wonderful memory for names ana
faces"
Careful attention, holding the
senses of perception to their work,
concentration of the faculties on the
subject under investigation, is some
thing that should be cultivated, If one
would make the fullest and best uses
of his talents.
Attention is habit, Just as lnatten-
ton is habit. The first is the indi-
cation of a disciplined mind. Inat-
tention is indication of a Maynard
mind. There is the dreamer, whose
thoughts stray unbidden into unprofit-
able byways. There is the dreamer.
whose mind. concentrated on an OBJ
iect, carries the perception into the
realms of imagination and there de-
velops an idea. The accuracy of the
idea depends in the first place on the
accuracy of perception, and that de-
ponds entirely on the attention. This
Is the kindergarten principle Lack
of attention, failure to perceive every
thing that lies exposed before us, is
often the reason why some men fail,
where others of less natural capacity,
succeed

tisn't compatible with Roosevelts
militant honesty to SIT silent, when
wrong is being done himself or any
one else. That isn't fault; that is q
virtue complicated with temperament.
When the Wall street smash sent
money scurrying 10 cover, and tenn
porarily suspended deliveries OF or
|ders. causing a diminution of freight
traffic, certain railroad heads openly
declared that the policy of the ma
tional administration was responsible
for their loss of business, and others,
II seems, gave the same reason, when
they suggested cutting wages. 1t was
a stab in the back for the president,
and he retorted Enthusiastically.
There is an interstate commerce COM
mission, the duty of which is to study
all the matters relating to interstate
common carriers, and their employees.
The president instructed the commits
sion to investigate the decrease in
freight business, its cause, and the
reason for cutting wages. The re-
suit. too, was to be expected. Rail-
road heads. growing at the inquisi-
ton, declared they never had any in
tention of making a permanent reduc-
ton in wages, and they wonder why
the national administration should
take the liberty to interfere with their
business. 1t does seem to an out
slider that those fellows would learn
to let Roosevelt alone. They always
get the worst of it.

A GREAT SPEECH.

Even blind followers of the other
candidates for the presidential nomi-
nation must admit that Governor
Hughes. of New York, made a telling
address before the Union League club
of Chicago on Washington's birthday,
whether studied as the expression of a
public man, or as bid for prefer
ment. 1t was set in the habitual
calm and conservatism of a Hughes;
it breathed his urcompromising bent
of mind, ii inca sured Hughes by the
Washington staYddri, the man called
into public life to perform a certain
mission, who, when his work was well
done, designed to retire into private
life, but was impelled by a sense of
duty to respond to a call for further
service.
1t is a notable fact that Hughes on
every OCCASION since he tacitly ac-
quiesced in the promotion of his can
ddacy, has managed to say something
nice about Roosevelt's policies, and
place himself in the attitude. If need
be, OF one ready and equipped to
prosecute those policies to their logi-
cal end. Only the two, Taft and
Hughes, so far have publicly pro.
claimed their position on issues now
before the country. Knox has a press
bureau in Washington, which sends
out information relative to the Penn
sylvania senator's friendlness to this
and that, and Roosevelt's friendllness
TO him; Fairbanks has a string of
newspapers that abuse the present ad-
ministration; and Uncle Joe Cannon
Well, Uncle Joe just Stands pat"
He's older than the boys, more sub
dued in his enthusiasm, satisfied With
the power he has, If he gets no more,
and a right smart figure of a man he
is, presiding over the house, without
bothering himself about what destiny
may have in store. Uncle Joe knows
something about politics, and how
dangerous it is to make a speech.
Lots of things have happened since
Uncle Joe first went to congress.
