Wishinu,

If last year was n good old year
=, There will be other years as good,
The skies will still be blue and clear,
The birds will MARBLE in the wood,
Wen hear the chirping katydds,
The children shall laugh as they come
To those who haven't any kids
We hope this year viii furnish some.
Tall roses shall sway on their STEMS
The Gamma blooms shall be aglow
And shine with d"wy diadems,
The children will play in the sun,
And chatter as they love to do
To those who haven't got one
/ hope this year'n bring one or two.
White clouds shall float above the scene.
The cows shall wend their homeward
way,
And little lambs shall run and play,
The fieldlark shall send its far call,
And children shall run wild and free
To those who have no babes at all
| hope this year brings two or three.
The trout shall play in the deep pool
Where pussy willows bend above.
And babies shall romp by to school,
The dear, sweet babies that we love,
The little laughing dears shall call.
And peep in through the open door
Oh, you. who have no babes at all.
l hope you'll soon have three or four.
To YOU who have grown old and gray,
Whose children have grown up and gone
Out in the world and far away,
And nights are lonesome and the dawn,
Who have the means, l hope you'll try
To get back where you were about
Twenty long years ago; please buy
All the worlds orphan 'sylums out.

Post.

The Eur Supply Ealing.

The great popularity of furs this
year draws attention to the fact that
our fur bearing animals are rapidly
becoming extinct. The fact that some
of the cheaper and coarser grades are
classed as popular" that is, are be-
ing exploited by the jobbers and deal
| ers. shows that the dealers recognize
| this fact. The price of the more COM
mon skins advanced sharply this year
and hunters who have heretofore
sought the fur bearing animals in
part for sport as we'll as for business.
have forgotten the sport part of the
proposition and gone after them for
business alone. This is true at home.
Our neighbors to the northWard arc
facing exactly the same situation. In
the far North seals are less plentiful
each year. Those who hunt the seals
for their skins are compelled to go

Optimism.

Thomas Edison's idea of what the
future holds for the workingman
speaks volumes for the optimism of
the great inventor. He does not see
disaster in the adoption of intricate
machinery to perform the labor now
performed by human hands. He sees
in the march of invention the means
for freeing factory workers from drug
cry He also sees in it luXuries
brought within the reach of the ordi-
nary laborer He does not believe that
the working day will be less than eight
hours, for he says, every man needs
that much work to keep him out Of
mischief and to keep him happy"
He does not believe in the monorail
as means of transportation, but pre-
,.iots that eventually railroads will be
r,uup.Iled to adopt the 6-foot gauge
j. stead of the 4-foot 9-inch gauge now
q uso. He believes the aeroplane Of
tAo 9'uturc will be smaller, and that
-,,iu. way will be found for doing
AVID! vita the large surface which is
now it's greatest handicap. He ridi-
rlIles the chemical food proposition as
- yrst ont iv Emil Fisher.
Fl gently iclicves in temperance
t"' A. S"&H, society will nave to stop
tiie rn'4,,sg business which is like
throwing sand in tn bearings of Il
-t.;l. cnGine." Few temperance lee
'Ines contain SO much Of truth IN so
Gttlc language. He believes that we
viii eventually get more neat from our
fuel and that friction will be overcome
in machinery.
These observations by Mr.. Edison
would be valueless did they not come
from a man who stands in the world OF
invention as by far the greatest man
of his time. TO him we are indebted
for many things. His name has cou-
pied with it half the electrical appli-
anccs on which we are dependent for
stiles The most valuable feature of
this unique statement, however, is the
spirit of optimism which it contains.
Such spirit is essential to the progress
Of the people already far advanced in
civilization. We are q high strung
people demanding quick results and
with a marked tendency toward des-
pondcncy and depression when we do
not get them as quickly as seems de-
sirable 1t is this spirit of optimism
which has enabled Thomas A. Edison
to accomplish all that he has been able
to accomplish and the rest of us should
learn the lesson from him.

Subsidy PROGRESS,

3SSJ 'SS' SSS'
Maine continues to watch the vicis-
STUDIES of the ocean mail compensation
or ship subsidy bill which is now
pending in Congress. Maine is as
much interested in this proposed
legislation as in any other and
it matters not how great the ex-
citement may be over the investiga-
ton of Secretary Ballinger or how
much of a Juror is created by the in
surgents in their campaign against
the administration, Maine will continue
to point to the essential business OF
this session, the enactment of some
law for the encouragement of Ameri
can shipping. The new ocean mail bill
has been mistaken for a ship subsidy
bill. say the experts. We are not par
ticular whether they call it ship sub
sidy bill or an ocean mail bill or
something else. The name is not
worth quarreling about. If it helps
American shipping, Maine wants it,
| President Taft has recommended it,
the business men of both coasts de-
mand it. The enactment of some such
| law has been delayed too long.
| We are informed that the bill before
Congress is in all essentials the same
as that which failed to pass the House
last March by two votes. There are,
however, one or two exceptions worthy
of note. Contracts are forbidden with
steamships owned or controlled or I'M
duly favored by railroad corporations.
A new section increases the tonnage
taxes on shipping from foreign ports.
There is a provision of this section Of
the bill which is unique in that it ar
ranges for the distribution of so per
| cent. of this new tonnage tax among
| American vessels carrying young Am
erican seamen. Again there IS a
clause providing that foreign built

is also pointed out that the new bill

it costs Germany to maintain an

Readers who are familiar with Rob
ert Louis Stevenson, may remember
the account of his travels across the
western plains in an immigrant train,
but GinO G. SperanZa writing in The
Survey for January first. says that the
hardShipS encountered in tranSporta-
ton are but rough introduction to
the road the alien has ahead of him.
For instance, how does he find work ?
If he has enough to buy the chance to
work, he applies to an employment
agent. Often the employment agent
has been instrumental in bringing him
to this country, and he is taken with
his baggage, directly to the agent from
the steamer. Many of the agents are
padroni who apparently take the place
of friend or relative of the American
looking for work. But the unchecked
opportunities for the indulgence of
greed have made the padrone one of
the most unfortunate elements in the
life of the alien. The eXorbitant fees
charged for putting him at work and
the large and continuous profits OBJ
tanned for supplying him with the nee
essities of life are the source of spec
tacular revenue to the padrone, his
countryman. who has preceded him in
residence here, but few years.
Through this padrone system, but a
few may be sent to unsanitary labor
camps. the life of which is pictured
elsewhere. He may also be sent as a
strike breaker or sent without his
knowledge into Industries wherein his
wages do not enable him to maintain
a decent standard of living.-The Sur
