We have recently obtained a Job lot
of copies of this interesting book, the
author of which, Mr.. Hamilton Gay
Howard, a lawyer. was the Secretary
of his father, Senator Howard, and
who left college TO come to Washing
ton with his father in 1863, and saw
with a young mans eager, curious eyes
all the great men who figured upon the
stage of action during that rnomentouS
period. It is no attempt to give his
tory, but it is a collection of gossip,
"reminiscences and admirable pen pic
lures of the men who were shaping the
mighty events.
The book, which is handsomely got
ten up and illustrated with portraits,
has had a large sale among the best
class of readers. The authors impress
sions of such men as Lincoln, Summer,
Wade, Cenklfng, Andrew johnson and
others of lesser note are extremely vivid
and interesting, and the book should
be in the hands Of everyone who wants
to form a correct idea OF the men and
events Of the day. We viii send II

Dedication of the Pilgrims Monument.

The President journeys again this
week, but IL will be for an absence of
only one day. On Friday he goes to
Provineetown for the dedication of the
Pilgrims Monument. II is not long
trip across Massachusetts Bay, and the
President can make il in an hour or
two from Beverly. The occasion is
looked forward to as quite notable and
much Interest is being shown in what
the President has to say. He had il in
his mind during the Maine trip to make
some comments about current issues
that have bearing upon his Admins
tration, but abstaincd, and the impress
sion grows that he has been saving
these comments for his Proyincetown
speech. He will leave Beverly early in
the morning, and according TO present
plans can be back in Beverly again be-
fore sundown.
~ This week and next there will be a
few members of the Cabinet in town
Secretary of State Knox is soon due
here. He win make a visit much like
that he made last Summer. and prob
ably VIII stay with his old friend, Henry
c. Frick, of Pittsburg, who has a mag
niiiCgut Summer residence a few mo-
ments' run by automobile up the North
Shore The President has been playing
golf a great deal this Summer with Mr.
Trirk. and when Secretary Knox arrives
there Will be more golf as well as the
consideration or some affairs of state.
The Secretary will have a consider
able batch of business and Will bring a
fun portfolio. For over month now
the President has had no opportunity
for close discussion of foreign affairs.
To be sure the telegraph wire between
the Executive Offices and the Depart
ments at Washington enables him to
get information upon specific subjects
almost at a moments notice-quite as
quickly as he could get the same in
formation II he were sitting in his oval
room at the White House Offices in
Washington. But while this enables
him 10 keep in touch with state busi-
I,ess after fashion some talks with
Secretary Knox will he very welcome.
Probably these Will include also some
review of the politica! situation in Penn

stirring during July days. There seemr

HINTS ABOUT THE HOME
BY Rose Terrell

Haunt the shops during these days
of cheap sales. Bits Of elaborate
trimmings may be picked up for a
song that will decidedly help out on
the winter garments. One woman
bought a length of cream silk trim
ming worked on net. She is running
it with the colors Of her evening gown
and will have a beautiful garniture,
which would have cost several dollars,
for less than one. She will run a
gold thread about certain colors for
the glitter, and is making a very ar
tistic bit of work.
The dainty cotton chiffons and thin
voiles which are placed on the bar
gain counters will make lovely eve
ming dresses. The silk sales offer
wonderful opportunities for silk lin
ings and should be watched carefully.
Do not buy unless you are going TO
use your purchases this winter or ear
ly next spring, however, as that is
simply one form Of insanity.
The dainty embroidered bags which
are being made to match suits will
make delightful gifts. The patterns
should be bold and heavy, rather than
fine and delicate. Belts to match,
with the straps to suspend the bag
worked in a single pattern, make the
gift complete.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1910-08-23

If you wish to succeed.
Does not that sound like chapter on
character building? We are just hu-
man gardens after all. The good has
to be worked for. Not spasmodically
but persistently.
Good deeds and good thoughts, high
purposes and noble resolves for each
day in the week and each hour in the
day. 1t is not possible to neglect to
water the lawn three days out of four
and keep it in good condition. 1t is
not possible to have Sunday morals"
and hope TO grow into noble man or
woman.
Just enough and not too much wa
tering of good resolves will work best
The people who overdo the thing fall
miserably. One cannot be too good,
but one can think for himself or herself
the quintessence of goodness and then
they are either turning yellow or rum
ming to seed. It's time to bring out the
lawn mower and turn off the water for
a period.
We must keep at it in season and out
OF season if we would be successful
either as gardeners or character build
ers. Even the letting alone is done
with thought. We the prone to be
over Jealous in both branches of gar
dening We stir the soil so vigorously
at times that even the best seed will
not grow We fertilize till the small
tender plants are killed by over-feed-
ing. So with the youthful virtues.
Over fertilizing is but name for
nagging when it comes to human gar
dens. We older people are so anxious
that the next generation should be
perfect that we forget that even viz
, tues should be allowed time to germin-
ate. They have to sprout, as it were,
before they become strong, well-rooted
plants in the garden.
We get into the century plant class
| ourselves before we know right from
wrong definitely. and so there is no
chance Of making mistakes-and even
then we make them. Whey, then, SO
much intolerance with the struggles Of
| the young people?
This constant supervision and con-
slant series of don'ts is all wrong.
| asked a child to tell me his name. He
was bright little fellow, not yet three
years old. He looked up and smiled.
my name is Jimmy Don't" he said.
| When l looked little puzzled his
| mother explained that he heard the
don't" so often connected with his
name that he thought it was part of
| 1t. That was funny-but sad, too. Why
should a child be so nagged? A little
firmness and an understanding that
mother means what she says, and chill
dren will not need the constant reitera-
| ton Of the word which is synonymous
TO them for thwarting of childish de-
sires.
Each must work in his own gar
den plots as seemeth best. We all
mean well-but you remember the
place that Red Saunders said was full
OF them kind of people" See that you
do well also. Make some "donts" for
your own use and forget to use them
| for the child. Be kind and firm and
generous and just and your gardening
will succeed. Sounds easy, doesn't it?
