"READING MAKETH

st. Paul Pioneer Press: When
Roosevelt talked to the school chill
dren Of Des Moines the other day
about the usefulness of useless in
formation" he probably touched on one
Of the guiding principles Of his life
Few men In public life have shown
themselves to be such students, or
students to such purpose, as is the
former president. This is not an age
of deep reading. although 1t is an ero
of magazines and newspapers such as
has never been known before. with the
per cent Of illiteracy constantly de-
creasing. Preachers, public speakers
and teachers, all those who have oc-
casion to feel the depth or culture of
present day Americans, comment on
the seemingly. prevalent tendency away
from the perusal Of thoughts which do
more than require the smallest mental
effort. There Is little Of the broad,
general mental effort which deepens
the convolutions of the brain.
This makes the studiousness Of Mr..
Roosevelt the more noteworthy. Few
men on hunting trip would think
of taking Spencers Faerle Queene or
Co1 ~ Az % GACNCAAGh LAlE NTTGdL or the
Nibelungenlied, especially if the hunt
Ing trip were through Africa with
hundreds of long pack journeys. Yet
these books, whose very titles are al
most forgotten by majority of news
paper readers, were included among
half hundred books along with works
by Shelley, Bacon, Keats, Dante and
Euripides.
Reading maketh a full man."

little, he need have much cunning to

the average general conversation of
the present, If it reach a stage re-
moved from the weather, rarely deals
with ideas which stimulates a great
amount of worthy thought. Yet it
is only by a mastery of the ideas of
the men of tie past that a man of the
present is to attain unto his greatest
mental development. Because there
were no hobble skirts or flying ma
chimes in the days Of Addison and

that day is not beneficial and help
full today.
The man who has the largest vo-
cabulary can express his thoughts
most exactly. The man who can re-
view the history of the leading ma

events with those of other ages and
by comparisons draw valuable les
sons. All round culture II. its most
enduring attributes can be obtained
only by wide reading. The student to-
day is the successful man tomorrow. |
Time spent with books which have en-
dured is not lost, and the information
acquired will be found useful in the
most unexpected places.

Value of Ammonia.

A bottle of household ammonia
will be great help in every kitchen.
A teaspoonful or two Of ammonia in
the water in which you rinse dish
towels and dishcloths will keep them
clean and wholesome If you rub a
dingy carpet with a cloth moistened
with ammonia, it will look brighter
Dip the hair brushes UP and down in
tepid water to which a tablespoonful
of ammonia has been added to
cleanse them properly. A few drops
of ammonia in greasy pans will re-
move the grease. Ammonia and boil
ing water to flush a sink drain pipe
will cut any grease that Is clogging
the pipe. If you put some ammonia
in the boiler in which you are boil
ing the white clothes it will make
them whittier.

on useless endeavor.
The man or woman who earns
money by hard work-whether it be of
Drawn or brain--is more likely to be
little thoughtful about expenditures.
He or she learns the value of a penny
in hard school, and 1t has a cumula-
tive power to his or her mind, that
the larger sum has to the person born
with the proverbial gold spoon.
Some one has said that genius is
the capacity for taking infinite pains.
1t is more than that-it is the ability
to do over and over a bit of work
which seems to be failure.
The genius draws a picture. 1t is a
failure. He casts it aside and draws
something else. The genius of infinite
pains makes the same attempt, and if
failure is his portion draws it again
and yet again until it is good
Now the result Of that effort NAV
lack the divine touch which would
,have rewarded the God-given genius il
there had been some application, but
it is worthy and better work will fol-
low. H.h<
The musicians and singers who
could be truly great and who fritter
away the time in the easy lines OF
mediocrity are countless Then there
is the genius for business and man
agement-who is content to plod along
in the lines of comparative success,
bat who never reaches the highest
within him. He has not the genius
for hard work that is part of great
success.
This idea of the uselessness of being
genius unless at the same time is
cultivated capacity for hard work
should be impressed upon children. It
is when the human creature is in the
plastic state that it is possible to make
greatest Impressions upon the brain.
Ideals Of work should be instilled. Do
not be afraid of making child do too
much II you are careful to see that
he eats and sleeps and lives according
to correct hygienic ideas.
II your son or daughter, or perhaps
your pupil, shows a certain ability in
some particular line, try to induce tnat
child to study seriously to make some
progress in that line Do not add q
dozen other lines for work. Specialize
upon the one for which there is the
capacity.
1t may be art or music, 1t may be
business or teaching 1t Is perhaps for
carpentering or for sewing. Where the
interest is there will be the best re-
sults-if child learns to take infinite
palms
If the child has no particular genius
or any one thing but still has pref
erence for one study or one kind of
work, specialize with him. Help him
to shine at that one chosen thought.
You may set 1t down as an axiom
that child must excel in something
IL he would be happy in school. You
may even go farther and say that a |
man or a woman must do some one |
thing well If he or she is to be happy. |

1t is just a different name for a fad.
If the fad be useful so much the bet
ter.
To work hard there must be en-
thusiasm, and there is no enthusiasm
among children for work which cannot
be done we'll Do not allow yourself
to be obsessed with the old idea that
what a child digs for is necessarily Of
most value. 1t is often what he is
shown how to dig for that counts.
Honest praise and honest criticism,
with the opportunity to work, is the
basis Of enthusiasm, and enthusiasm is
a long step toward the genius of
taking pains" The divine spark may
go out for lack of sufficient breeze to
keep it alight, but the constant work
of the person with a genius for it will
brighten into a glow the dullest fire.

KEPT GUESSING.
Taft and His Advisers Are on
Anxious Seat
Regarding the Future Course of
Theodore Roosevelt.
WILL TRY TO WIN HIM
By a Vigorous Effort to Further
His Policies.
Good Roads Movement Is Taking
Definite Shape.

Washington, D. c., April 2,-The
Republican party finds itself in such
a condition today that, in order for
the administration to gather to itself
zall the strength it can muster. Mr..
Taft and his advisers feel they are
fortunate in being able to show more
clearly even than they have in the
past that they are doing, and will do
everything in their power to "clinch"
the Roosevelt policies. Their activity
in this direction will be first apparent
through the department of Justice
which branch of the government now
has in its possession a wealth of in
formation regarding the operations of
the great corporations of the country.
Action will! be had by the attorney
general against every corporation
which has been found by the eagle
eyed agents of the department of JUS
tice to be breaking or evading the law.
This information comes from some of
the highest advisers of the president,
and coupled with 1t is the news that
up to this time the administration is
without assurances of any sort from
the returning former president, Col.
Roosevelt, as to what stand he will
take regarding the present situation
in the Republican party. This admin
iStratiOn is too wise to ignore the i'm
mense strength it can win by having
as one of it's ardent supporters RoOSe-
welt, the man who was the chief boom
er of William Howard Taft for the
presidency.
Mr.. Taft's advisers believe, there
fore, that the best way to win the
country and Mr. Roosevelt is to de-
monstrate in the open and by en-
phatic action that the Roosevelt pol
icies are the policies of the govern
ment today. The Taft people point
out that this is no new doctrine on his
part. For the past two months, I'M
der his direction, the department of
justice has been at work gathering ev-
cry sort of material regarding the con-
duct and operations of the trusts,
good and bad.
No more striking example of this
can be had than the painstaking way
in which Attorney General Wicker
sham went into the question of COM
polling the Anaconda Copper COM
pany to change its methods of smelt-
ing, an action which was begun in
the open only a few days ago. And
the same minute care which was de-
voted to determining this relatively
unimportant matter has been used in
Investigating the larger issues and
