SUNDAY MORNING TALK
NINETEEN HUNDRED AND NOW

A certain well known and sometimes nilfily ridiculed American city has proposed for itself through the me- dium of a group of prominent citizens. an ideal of municipal development which looks toward a much finer city arclTtecturally, educationally and morally to be made reality by 1915. When the late Edward Everett Hale heard of this Boston 1915" movement he made the characteristic remark that while it was an excellent ideal, still better. motto for the arousing of public spirit would be Boston nine- teen hundred and now" Instead ot having people concentrating attention on a goal six years distant, he would have them take hold with all their might of the nearby duties and oppor- tuniites.
 Doubtless these two idealS-that of an objective some distance away Tn time and space and that of the inn portance and strategic character of the present moment are capable of being reconciled and of being made mutually serviceabIe, but for the mo- mert I want to emphasize Dr. Hale's admirable suggestion.
 this propelling suggestion. One Is made up of those numerous people whose motto is some other time" In tropical countries 1t is almost impos- sible to get the natives to do anything. They dreamily reply when urged to do their duty, Tomorrow, tomorrow" But when tomorrow comes it is the same old pretext again. And so tue days slip by and tasks are left half completed. while those who should be doing them sport under the shade of some ulnbrageous tree. But by and by some red-blooded Anglo Saxon comes along and then the dirt for the canal begins to fly and other great construction and improvement unler- takiuss make splendid headway. Do 1t now and clinch it'' is a popular American motto, and yet who does not know men and women in every Amer ican community whose chronic weak ness is the habit of procrastination, who are all day doing a thing that ought to be dispatched in three hours
 It Is particularly true in the moral sphere. Most of us expect to brace up some day. Oh, yes. we are going to join the church bye and bye, we are going to put our shoulders to patriotic and good citizenship movements We are going to write that letter of sym pathy and render that little kindly service. But when, my delaying brother. pray, when? Keep not your KISSES TUT liAl Culu- pdlc UFUW. Ilfn6 speeds on. What thou doest, do quick 1y Join the nineteen hundred and now society.
 The other class of people to who an injunction of this sort Tnay serve as a needed incentive is made up of the serious, strenuous members of so- ciety whose ideals are so high and often so radical that failing to enlist general popular sympathy, they be- come discouraged and say it's mo use to do anything, but walt for a change in public sentiment. It's no use to fight the liquor traffic until we can get a national prohibition law. It's no use to clean up the streets and asitate for pure food and milk and better tenement houses until socialism is in the saddle everywhere and an entire rev0luki0n tn the 2l1bl1c. attitude has

penfne.. Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infiamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inf1amed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed deafness is the result. and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's nor nal condition hearing will be destroy ed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by lCatarrh, which is nothing but an in7amed condition of the nu- cous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness 6caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

This is a well-to tale; but it would be improved by showing how this democrat got his pull with re- publican legislature. Bold methods are required for self-created jobs, but it is not often that a democrat can venture with show of success under such conditions as these. The giving of publicity to the whole scheme marks it's death- knell. If the repub- licans have nothing better to do than to entertain schemes of this kind, it is time they adjourned

A PRETTY KETTLE OF FISH.

The story in yesterdays Courant about the neat place that was being arranged by an attorney for himself at S2,500 a year of the states money was much discussed at the capitol. It developed that the attorney who stands ready to take the sinecure is Thomas J. Spellacy of this city, a democrat, who was senator two years ago and was so successful in helping the shops out of their threat ened abolition. MT. Spellacy's friends said that the publication did not worry them; they believed they could pull the bill through the house and they had the governor all fixed so that, if the thing went through, Spellacy was sure of job. The movement in the house against the creation of the office seemed to be gaining strength. One influential member of the judiciary committee, which kindly originated the bill, said that he had never seen it, much less voted on it. and the publication in the paper was the first intimati tion he had of it's ex- istence. Certain influential persons who had endorsed the scheme were quoted as saying that they did so by request, and very earnest request, but that they did not care to see the pro- ject enacted into law.-The Courant, July 15.

The swordfish season has arrived and swordfish steak is in order. It is not so long ago that the swordfish was not considered edible-it was a wonder for size and profitable on account of it's oil. 1 do not know of prettier sight than sWordfish swimming near the surface in a smooth sea. He is not afraid--the noise of a steamer does not seem to disturb him. He swims in his native element like monarch conscious of his might. Hugh Miller says this fish began to swim in the seas dwarf and became giant He discovered that the first swordfish were only a span in length in ancient seas and that they grew to be monsters in modern seas whose bodies eQualled in hugeness the trunks Of ancient oaks Per contra, many things of earth which were gigantic are now only represent ed by dwarfs. Natures balances are ever maintained
 We do not know much about the savage side of life, although we may forget to thank God that we have es- capped it. Life in all its best condi- tions has a neither side. It is only a short time ago that a young woman in the west arrested for murder said this: T never felt mothers kiss upon my brow. Never was a womans hand extended in friendship to me until after killed Otto Lundstrum. Never was a mans voice raised in friendly warning. Young, friendless, inexperienced alone in the world, I was fit prey for the hunting of men. As remorselessiy as they hunt down the helpless deer in the forest they hunted me down. Is it any wonder fell? Every mans hand was against nae. I believed there was no truth, no honesty, no love in the world. Men who hunt down the wild beasts of the forest kill their bodies. The men who hunted me down killed my soul' What a picture of life this isl What an indictment of men devoid of principle! What a revelation of brutality! It is not so strange that the underdog goes mad or that the de- fenseless turn and commit murder Do not be Rrouch 1t is easy to fnd
