May Have Lost Money

But it might be that Croker has
come over here because of money
matters Although there is no abso-
Lutte proof for the belief, it is gener-
ally thought that he lost considerable
money in market speculation over
here during the last year, and it is
probable that he has come to this
country to see hoWait happened and,
if possible, to get some of it back.
Il do not doubt but what the ques
ton of a mayor for New York has
interested Croker considerably, and
that while in this country he will use
his influence in getting a man elect
ed to the place who will be sure to
look after Tammany's needs. Nixon
and Jerome are two of his favorites
and zhe will doubtless try the sugges-
tion of their names on the public
to see if they will meet with their ap-
proval"

BANANA PFDDLlNG
MAY GO UNDER BAN
Movement to Raise License
Fee to $1,000

Application will be made to the city
council by w. A. Ayash, wholesale
dealer in bananas, together with Am
ericus retail grocers, for protection
against a peripatetic Greek vendor of
fruits from the neighboring city of
Albany. The protection asked will
be in the nature of a license of 81 900
for pedding fruits on the streets. This
tax, it is confidently believed will
put quietus on any raids into Am
ericus by outside vendors of fruit.
The eagerness of the Albany dealer
to unload his goods in Americus is
due to the fact that until this season
Ayash bought his bananas from the
Albany Greek, paying about IS cents
a bunch This season Ayash has
arranged with the United Fruit Com
pany to handle bananas by the car
load, an arrangement which was
greatly appreciated by Americus re-
tail grocers, who were thus able to
get their fruit in perfect condition,
instead of crushed or rotted, as was
often the case when shipped in bun
ches by express. Prices have also
been reduced.
Recently the Albany Greek has been
shipping bananas into Americus, and
under the protection of $50 annual
license has been hawking them over
the streets in wagons, accompanied
by an ear-splitting ringing of bells.
When it came to prices the outsider
would accept anything for bunch
from 20 cents up, or down. In mo-
ments of excitement he has been seen
to bestow on those gathered around
his wagon punches of bananas rath-
er than let Ayash sell at any price.

The Serious Part

The serious part of the matter
comes from the decentralization of the
banana trade among the local retail
grocers. Prospective purchasers ot
fruit buy from these wagons, and
ignore local dealers who are trying
to sell at moderate profit These
dealers pay a license and otherwise
support the clay, and to allow for
eign dealers to enter and cut the mar
ket all to pieces just to crafty 4
spite, is arousing much protest against
the invader.
1T is running our banana busi-
ness" said local retail grocer yes
terday. Our store is not buying a
fourth as much as formerly. We
can't compete with a dealer who sells
below cost for the purpose of injuring
our only wholesale dealer in fruits
This fellow sells at full rates else
where, but jumps into Americus and
loses money just to injure an Am
ericus wholesaler who has started in
business for himself this season. !
think the City Council ought to put
such a heavy tax on street selling
that outsiders could not come in
A petition is being prepared for cir
culation, asking the City Council to
raise the license on street peddling
to $1,000 per year.
If the outsider could force the Am
ericus wholesaler out of business,
prices would no doubt be quickly
raised and Americus consumers would
pay dearly for their purchases for a
time below cost

brother DUTTOM

EDITOR STAR:-Kindly permit us
to say that (as you likely however
have the knowledge) there have been
few brief articles published, telling
the reading world a little of the life,
a few things about Brother Joseph
Dutton of Kalawao, Molokai, the lep-
er settlement of the Territory of Ha-
wall. There are two dipisions of the
settlement, two miles apart, Kalau-
papa being the landing-place used,
when the sea will be smooth enough
to let a boat make in from the little
steamer and land its freight, human
and other, and the mail bag.
This Settlement is as shut out from
the world by terrible cliffs on the one
hand and by the usually rough break
ers on the other, as can be well i'm
agined-an isolated prison, but hui
namely furnished with every need
doctors, nurses, food, best of water,
cleanliness and quiet home comforts.
There is not such a most mavelous
sanitarium on the entire globe. One
great, chief and most vigilant, and
active promoter of all this condition,
found there today of our Lord, July,
1908, is this unflagging and ceaseless
worker to wit--Brother Joseph Dut-
ton. An article printed in the Adver-
tiGer of Honolulu, one in the Path
finder (of other papers, tells that this
worker became a Dominican and a
Trappist of "Gethsemane," Kentucky,
when 40 years of age; and after about
three years came to Molokai, and sur
rendered himself as an aide to the
late Fr. Damien whose sad death,
after 16 years of work at Molokai,
occurred three years after his arri-
val, and in whose arms he breathed
his last. That was some nineteen
years ago.
1t was three years after Brother
buttons arrival before the Sisters
could come, and nine years later, be-
fore the European Brothers, four in
number, came on the scene of action!
Can any reader fancy the work of
that man during those years, of lone
liness and sorest need. Vigorous,
strong mentally and physically, how
he handled, that terrible burden OF
Leprosy! For nine years he ate and
drank with the lepers, having at that
crucial time very little communica-
tion, if any, with the mainland, home
and friends left behind him. For sew
enteen years he dressed, almost un-
aided, he dressed the wounds, of the
afflicted, and buried the dead. Bro
ther Dutton is fine scholar, a good
physician for body or soul, cheeful,
happy in his life-work, true saint
and most cultivated gentleman. He
is an American, born in Vermont, IS
years of age, a Captain in the late
Civil War and a most staunch and
loyal patriot. At his request forward
ed to Washington the entire Fleet
will pass Molokai, on the early morn
ing of July 16, 1908.
Whenever he shall depart this life,
he will, to our belief, enter at once
the very best 5th avenue of Paradise,
and lodge in a dwelling far beyond,
in solid comfort and beautS the Wal
dorf-Astoria; and, not for a brief So
journ but as a guest, an honorary
visitor, for all eternity.

so the New Thought. read again the
wisdom of its high priestess.
''The faster life goes to the devil"
she writes in the Key, "the quicker
it's race will be run, and it will come
through it's experience into the ulti-
mate regeneration The cure of the
thing is in the thing itself, and no one
relates it.
Last of ali love is required to il
Illuminate the dull gray of the common
place.
"We want love- Every nature de-
mands it, for latent in every soul is
the recognition that love is the fulfill
ing Of the law of it's being. Without
the softening and revivifying influ-
ence of love all that is best in human
expression would sink into oblivion"
Always healthy, wealthy and wise,
it is not necessary then to go to bed
early, but to be immersed in New
Thought up to your eyes.
AS far as the treatment of disease
gees, the efforts in that direction are
aimed at getting the race thoroughly
to understand the great cosmic con-
seriousness.
Disease is only the result of mixed
currents of the mind registering mega
tive thought currents. Nobody would
be i'll unless at some time or other he
had recognized his malady in the alb
solute and had permitted it to regis
ter into his corporal form. If human
being is born into illness and deform-
ity it is merely because somewhere in
the orbit of his soul he got out of har-
mony, and the result is that he ap-
pears in an imperfect physical mani
festation.
Behind every deformity is the re-
venge of some negative energy, which
has long since been forgotten, proba-
bly,. but is still at work The healer
therefore, who is intelligent, will mere
" get in touch with the cosmic forces
and direct them in such way that
the patient may be made to under
stand the supreme consciousness and
to again get into cadence with the
harmonies of the universe.

The striving after markedly new

In careful pedigree breeding, the ami

In the ordinary pedigree-breeding in

known and recorded, although through
planting the breeding stock in isolated
fields, the male is known to have come
from a good mother parent. In some
special cases male and female are
both followed in plants by practicing
hand-pollination.

we'll filled it does not materially mat
ter as this in general is not detri'

In making the first selections it is
usually the best policy to make a pre-
liminary selection of much larger
number of plants than are actually de-
sired. The breeder can then examine
these selections with greater care and
discard the poorest form among them
retaining only the superior individuals
Careful breeders have found it very
desirable to have a clearly defined
ideal type which they are striving to
produce. In selections within the race
the breeder should have all of the
characters of the race which he is
breeding clearly in mind in order to
adhere strictly to the type of the
variety in the selections. In making
selections of new variations, muta
tions, etc, in attempting to secure
new races, naturally no one type can
be adhered to. In testing these differ

We are glad to learn that the Asso-

cal Journal. Physicians have for years
been convinced of the deleteriOus eff

we find half-tones handsomely printed
on paper which is almost if not quite
unobiectionable so far as glare is con-
cerned. Our French and German ex-

idence of this.
Many of the half-tone engravings
are in a high degree artistic, and they
have the advantage of presenting un-
deniable reproductions of photograph
ic pictures with all their good points
and all their bad ones. For all that,
however, we prefer wood cuts for
most purposes. Where are the half

cure it and aid us to keep it. The uni
versal intelligence is no respector of
persons; and if we lack while others
have supply there is nothing the mat
ter with the cosmic consciousness,
but there is something materially
wrong in our comprehension of it,
It is then explained by DR.. Sears
that the human race must have health,
because the first requisite to happy
life is a sound body and the ability to
conquer distest and the WEAKNESS of
the flesh.
Health" says she, lis first in the
trinity. We may wait for recognition
of wealth and love"
One of the speakers in the recent
convention, Mrs. Ella Chapman of
New Hampshire, dwelt upon the criti-
cisms made by those who, failing to
understand the new cult, considered
that too much attention was given to
the material.
Mrs. Sears, with the key, unlocks
the mysteries of the New Thought
teachings in this respect:
1--WE want and we must have money,
wealth, abundance of supply. Why?
Because, in the present rate of con-
seriousness, wealth has become medi-
UNI of exchange on the physical plane,
where every life makes personal con-
tact for freedom. This age is one of
great material power and lives that
are caught in the currents of personal
and are opposed to the universal
trend of evolution must forever be
ground to dust and ashes beneath the
great transmitting power that is high
er than themselves"
Mr.. Sears thinks that wealth is also
necessary so that those who have it
may be able to give cup of cold wa
ter to the less fortunate.

A GOOD SAMARITAN.
Looks After the Undeserving Poor
Saws No One Else viii.


There is a rich man in a Southern
city who makes the undeserving poor
his peculiar care, says the Independ-
ent.
His methods in dealing with what
he calls fresh sinner are unique, and
he regards them as scientific from the
heavenly point of view. He insists
upon a full catalogue of the victim
transgressions.
He claims that this is done on the
theory that a physician first admins
ters an emetic in case of poisoning.
Then if the patient is an utterly lost
and abandoned woman he frequently
takes her home with him, where she
is CHARTERED in the guest chamber and
treated by the family as the welcome
guest whose presence there is in no
way remarkable.
For our scientist claims that is is the
loss OF the sacred home consciousness
in such women which casts them so
far down, and his purpose is to restore
the same by his own fireside, which
is particularly attractive in that he
has a wife and many young children.
Nothing Is said to the forlorn one to
remind her of the shame; she is sim
ply left to get well, as the scientist
expresses it.
And it is astonishing how many OF
them do get we'll. His boast is that
he has married his girls happily all
over the country, for he is an enthu'
