Still Peril on the Deep.
From the Toledo Blade.

From the Toledo Blade.
The vigilance of sailors. the multiplied
ton Of lighthouses and lightships and the
invention Of devices of warning have
still not robbed the seas Of their might.
If romance demands risk of life and
limb, the drama OF panic or Of bravery,
the struggle Of man against the elements,
then there is plenty of romance left.
The wreck Of the Minnehaha directs at
tention again to this failure of the mari
time nations and the followers of the
seas to strip the waves of their perils.
In the days Of the clipper ships the sailor
folk spoke of headlands and of certain
groups of islands as ocean graveyards.
These rocks and reefs still claim their
booty by the blessings of Cod" said

ity. The traveller upon vessel passing
Sandy Hook notes the signs of wreck,
and these signs continue, though salvers
are ever at work whereabouts. Hatteras
maintains its ancient notoriety. The Liz
ard upon the English coast, Is strewn
around with hulks of great steamers, and
the Scilly Islands, where the Minnehaha
went ashore, are among the terrors of the
deep, though their shores bristle with
lighthouses. Those who like the spice
of danger with their journeying about
the earth have still no reason to COM

Mr.. Roosevelt stood before his French
audience, as he stands before his coun-
trymen. as the man who has translated
his words into Deeds He has done

He has earned his own salt. He has

speak louder than his words.
And it must not be forgotten that Mr..
Roosevelt was born rich, and into a circle
of many social indulgences. He might
have been a fashionable idler, a club

where field sports and high play. lure

might have looked no higher than polo

at Monte Carlo.
But he proved worthy Of his stock.
Those on both sides Of his house before
him had pulled their weight, and earned
their salt, and given healthy children to
the world: and upon reaching mans es-
tate he did likewise. Fashion and idle
ness did not entice him. High aims and
hard work did. He entered politics, and
made his mark. He studied the country,
and wrote about It, He roughed it on
the plains, and both hardened himself
and broadened his conception Of Ameri-

this time to feel that a loss to the fruit
growers of possibly slo,0O0.OOO might
have been prevented through the expendi-
ture of perhaps $4,000 in the purchase Of
kettles and oil. At the same time this
less may enforce upon the fruit growers Of
the middle west the conviction that they are
running too grave a risk each spring when
they leave their orchards exposed to the
vagaries of the climate, without any
means of their own except hastily provio-
ed bonfires, to prevent wholesale losses
The teachings of the Department OF Ag-
riculture and the experiment stations
must eventually have their effect in dem
onstrating that no orchard is safe unless
equipped with the apparatus for lighting
the frost which experience has proved to
be effective.

The Man and His Philosophy,

Mr.. Roosevelt's address at the Sorbonne
proves to be an old acquaintance In
America 1t was prepared. we are told,
q year and a half ago. 1t might have
been prepared seven years ago-any time
after Mr.. Roosevelt entered the White
House. when he began giving in public
addresses the substance of his view and
rule of life and its obligations. Here
and there Is a new epigram. but without
adding to the force Of the thought.
The Rooseveltian belief, hammered into
Mr.. Rooseveit's countrymen. IL that IA
man should pull his own weight "A
man should earn his salt" a man
should marry. establish home and add

Capital Making.

Washington's attractions have been aug
mented richly by the completion of the
building given by Mr.. Carnegie as a home
Tor the bureau of American republics,
which is to be dedicated officially tomor-
row. In all respects the structure which
was thrown open for inspection last even
Ing is worthy not only of the institution
which 1t Is to house, but Of the capital of
which ii is destined to be a notable fea-
ture.
The Library Of Congress is rated as one
Of the most interesting of the physical
points OF attraction in Washington, with
its elaborate scheme of decoration, it's
wonderful combinations Of marbles and
mosaics. and, above all. its always enter
tanning and instructive exhibits of an ar
tistic, historical and literary character.
Since the Library was completed other at
fractions have been added to the city's
features. the latest of which is the new
National Museum. Although not as or
nate as the Library, this building is new
ertheless reckoned as one of the important
centers of interest as an architectural
creation as we'll as for it's contents. The
new Union station impresses every incom-
Ing tourist as a triumph OF monumental
practical architecture. The station is in
deed properly to be rated as one of the
most important Of Washington's features.
Continental Hall, the home of the Daugl-
tiers Of the American Revolution, is rec
ognized as a noteworthy contribution to
the capital With the completion of the
bureau OF American republics the west
side of 18th street. thanking the White
Lot. offers an exceptional array of i'm
portant and artistic buildings, the Cor
coran Gallery of Art contributing a large
share to the impressiveness of this once
neglected. unsightfy thoroughfare In
the course of few months there will be
an equally attractive addition on the east
side Of the reservation as the buildings
for the State, Justice and Commerce de-
partments are erected within the five.
square site recently acquired by the gov
eminent.
The Senate has already passed the Hey
burn bill providing for the condemnation
OF the Mall-Avenue triangle to furnish
building sites for the governments future
needs. It has been SO often demonstrated
to be a measure Of economy to move now
Ia this direction that 1t seems needless
again to point out the fact that ultimately
all OF the land comprised within the limits
prescribed by this measure will be neces-
sarily utilized. The principle underlying
the proposed legislation is to insure to the
government prompt acquisition at reason
able rates of building sites for the struc-
lures which will inevitably be required
within the next fifteen or twenty years.
and many Of which are needed now to
permit the orderly. safe and dignif1ed
transaction OF the public business. The
United States should not be outstripped
In its progress toward the completion of
its own equipment by the private and
semi-private intcresss--and organizations
and individuals now at work contributing
to the development Of the ideal Capital
City.

II would seem a sweeping assertion
to say, that the majority of people are
Discontinued with their occupation;
but 1t would almost seem as If this
were true, when one hears on all
sides expressions OF dissatisfaction
with the work in hand, or a desire
to take up something new.
A college professor complains his
work is a grind, and that he has en-
tirely too much. An ad writer says
it's too great strain, and the game
isn't worth the candle. A salesman
says selling is the most monotonous
work in existence and he thinks he
will study ad writing. A dressmaker
declares her customers are too cranky
and is going into stenography. A
stenographer mourns against the long
hours and decides to take boarders.
And so it goes. Restlessness, dis
satisfaction, seem everywhere. The

ones life, one should be happy in it,
if one wants to have a happy life.
There must be some sound underlying
reason for this discomfort, or it would
not be so general. It isn't that the hu-
man family objects to work in itself.
for the individual doing the right
work is far happier than when idle.

of over-work or too monotonous work.
