The Power of suer..tion.

It was the reserve force stored u. in the years of conquest and the habit of triumphing in whatever they under took that gave such power to the Washingtons, the Lincolns, the Glad stones and the Disraelis, says Orison Swett Marden in Success Magazine It is the reserve power which we feel back of the words and between the lines of powerful book; not what is actually in the printed words that im- presses us most. We are not so much affected by what an orator like Web ster actually says as we are by what he suggests; the latent power, the mighty reserve force that we feel he might put forth were the emergency great enough.

The body of Ernest Johnson was found in the branches of tree in Fish Bayou swamp near Palmetto. La. by a party that had been searching for him for a week. The youth took refuge from alligators in the tree and starved. A note found in his hat told the story of his death. He had been fishing in the swamp when alligators swarmed around his skiff. The gators attacked the boat and the boy ran to tree He climbed the tree, thinking that the alligators would go away. but they maintained vigil at the foot of the tree day and night. until the ter ror-stricken lad lost nerve and dared not attempt to escape in the boat. He starved to death.

bourceS Of the country has become ar
 oft used phrase during the last de
 :ade. There is none so dull or isolated these days as not to be able to explain more or less learnedly the need of pro tecting and safeguarding the trees, oi their relation to the country's climate the important part they play in the precipitation of it's rain and the evap Oration of its moisture.
 Even in colonial days, only a few years after the white man with his lx had started his work of felling the seemingly exhaustless forests which stretched from Maine to the gulf and from the Atlantic to the Alleghanies, some were far-sighted enough to real ize that too great zeal in clearing away the primeval growth might work an injury not easily repaired Only l7 years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth the trustees of the little town of Watertown, Mass, adopted a resolution fining anyone guilty of fell ing shade tree by the roadside A few years later New York found it necessary to regulate the 'indiscrimi- nate cutting of trees.
 It was to his practical side that J. Sterling Morton, the originator of Ar bor Day. appealed. As a farmer ;n treeless Nebraska, he had realized, as had his neighbors, the vital need of trees. They needed them as a protec- tion from the blizzards of winter and the hot droughts of summer. The government recognized the need when it offered tree claims to settlers, gir- ing them free land if a certain num- Der of trees were planted. Some of these settlers of German origin prob ably knew the efforts which the Ger man government was putting forth, even in the middle of the nineteenth century, toward the scientific manage ment of the nations woodlands. Flu ropean countries learned long before America the lesson that the forests should be cherished as among the na- tion's most precious possessions. That was why Pinchot and Graves could find in Europe schools corresponding to American colleges, established for the special purpose of training men for the successful planting and culti-

WAIVE ON FANEu1L HALL.

Made fD the Shape of a GraxHhoppeI by an Early Wood Carver.
 Perched on the cupola of Faneui Hall is a grasshopper weathervant which is not only one of the oldest vanes in the country. but is famous as the product of one of Americas earliest wood caryers and artisans Shem Drowne, of Boston, the Globe of that city says.
 Drowne's shop was on Ann street, in the north end.
 Of the many vanes he made only three are now known to be in exist ence-the one on the Shepard Memo rial Church in Cambridge, which for merly was on the steeple of the New Brick Church on Hanover street in this the one in the collection of the Massa- chusetts Historical Society, a relic of the old Boston Province House, and the one on Faneuil Hall.
 This grasshopper of copper, ham mered out by hand, has large glassy eyes, which in the sunlight shine like fire. It was made in 1742 at the order of Peter Faneuil when the hall, his
  gift to the town, was nearing compile ton, and for the last 167 years it has been a landmark.
 It has not, however. lived a life of unbroken- peace, for several times it has been near destruction. Tn 1755, when Boston was shaken by an earth quake, the vane fell to the ground, but after being supplied with new leg by the son of the man who made it was replaced.
 Five years later Faneuil Hall was seriously damaged by fire. but the vanc remained intact and when the hall was rebuilt the grasshopper was once more given the place of honor.
 Another disaster befell 1t when, in 1889, flag was being raised to cele- brate the anniversary of the evacua- ton of the city by the British, the hop per hopped to the street below. But in few days he hopped right back again and there it has remained ever since. with the exception of an occa. sional removal for repairs

plete and wretched lives we see every where because people did not think it worth while to prepare for much of a career! They thought they would get just little education to help them along. just enough for practical use. They did not think it worth while to dig down deep and lay broad founda- tions. They did not see life as a whole.
 The reason why the lives of so many people are mean and stingy and juice less is because they put so little into them, they make such a meager prep aration in education, in culture, in training, in thinking. Their harvest is small because they SOW so little and such inferior seed.
 If the youth expects a rich, golden harvest, he must prepare the soil, he must do some good sowing in the seed time.
 You cannot take ont of your life what you have not put into it, any more than you can draw out of bank what you have not deposited

PRESIDENTS PRIVATE WIRE.
c. P. Taft Will Pay $24,OOO . Tear
 for Daily Chat With Brother

c. F. Taft Will Pay $24,OOO . Tear
 for Daily Chat With Brother.
 Hello, Bill How are things at the White House?"
 "Fine!" Cor the reverse, probably.) ) T never felt better in my life. How's things in dear old Cincy?"
 Couldn't be better. How much do you weigh to-day?"
 This kind of conversation will soon be passing over leased telephone line running through Pittsburg, and the line, to all inQuirers. will always be busy.
 For Brother Charles P. Taft, he of the Vandyke beard, and big bank roll, is going to have a private telephone service from his home in Cincinnati to the White House in Washington, and all without a cent of cost to Brother Bill, the Pittsburg Post says. Brotherly love will go a long way, but greater love no brother has had than this, to string private telephone wire 725 miles long so he can talk few minutes each evening in a pure ly social chat
 Officials of the local offices of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company received details of Charles P. Taft's plan for the first time. Tine wire will be operated within two or three weeks. One of the company's regular trunks will be put in service for the purpose and from o'clock in the evening until 6 o'clock in the morning it will be at the disposal of the President and his brother.
 Tt will cost Charles P. Taft S24,000 a year to have this daily chat" said one of the Pittsburg officials of the company yesterday. The man quoted is an old friend of Manager Clark, who Is putting the deal through.
 For a twenty-four-hour wire" he continued, "it would cost MT. Taft $52.000 a year; that's $1,000 week If MT. Taft wanted to talk to the Pres ident during the day instead of during wire would be $2s,0o0 year, or $4,o00 more than he will pay"
 The wires over which this most pri- vate line of conversation will pass will roughly follow the line of the Pan handle railroad from Cincinnati to Pittsburg and thence to Washington roughly along the line of the Balti- more &, Ohio. President Taft's laugh will gurgle through the cities of Co lumbus and Pittsburg and over the near Cumberland.
 No outside hand will manipulate the plugs and no outside ear will hear the words, as the line will be kept private in the strictest sense.

vation of forests; why they found tho
 growth of trees and their maintenance
 reduced to science and the manage ment of public forests lands an i'm portant department of state.
 At the annual meeting of the Ne
 braska State Board of Agriculture
 held in Lincoln, January. 1872, J.
 Sterling Morton, afterward Secretary
 of Agriculture, introduced a resolution
 which read:
 Resolved, That Wednesday. the
 10th day of April, 1872, be, and the
 same is hereby, especially set apart
 and consecrated for tree planting h
 the State of Nebraska, and the State
 Board of Agriculture hereby name 1t Arbor day; and to urge upon the peo-
 pie of the State the vital Importance of tree planting. hereby offer a special premium of s100 to the agricultural society of that county in Nebraska which shall upon that day, plant properly the largest number of trees; and farm library of S25 worth of books to that person, who on that day shall plant properly. in Nebraska, the greatest numDer or trees.
 The idea was quickly adopted by other States. Dr. B. G. Northrop, a Congregational minister of Massachu- setts, known as the great apostle of Arbor day." gave up his other work to devote his entire time to the tree cul- ture movement The American Pores try Association made him chairman of a committee to push it, and in lee lures, newspapers and pamphlets he spread the Arbor day propaganda un- til before his death he had seen it adopted by almost every State and Territory. He even carried it across the waters of the Pacific and induced Japan to make it one of the national holidays. This was in 1895. His word bore some weight in the land of the and his visit was happy one for him, as he was well known. At one time he acted as guardian to three young Japanese women who had come to this country to be educated. One of these became the wife of Oyama, and all that she could do to honor her old friend was done while he was in Jdpdu. NONeIHDcI Q, tue udtC OA lAc birthday. was selected as fitting time for the Japanese to ob- serve as tree planting day.
 In this country Arbor day Is holiday, each State selecting the date most seasonable and con venient. April seems the most gener- ally favored time, but its observances ranges from January, the date of the Florida Arbor day, to December, though none of the States uses the summer months. Washington's birth day has been selected by number of Southern States. In many of the States the date is fixed, as in Illinois, by the governor. The forms of ob servance have gradually become iden- flied with the schools, so that in one sense 1t is practically school holl- lay.
The Holbrook news., 1910-07-22

A British scientist, insisting that
 the first born of the family is rarely the best in quality and is likely to
 have defects the younger children es-
 cape, argues that the Peers should be
 selected from all the children and not
 sit in the House of Lords by virtue
 of being the first-born. This serves
 to recall a peculiarity of English no
 bility which does not obtain upon the Continent. Only the eldest born of
 an English peers family is noble.
 Even the second son of a duke is by law commoner and bears only the courtesy of Lord, his children not be ing accorded even that. Winston Churchill, although the son of Lord Randolph Churchill, a younger son of a Duke of Marlborough is plain Mir
 Churchill. Even the blood royal in England carries no nobility to the third generation. The Duke of Con naught's second son, although Prince by courtesy and likely to be made Peer, would nevertheless be a com moner in law and his children would of themselves possess even no courtesy titles. Elsewhere in Europe all the children are nobles. In France un- der the ancien regime if count had ten sons, each was a noble iA law So in Germany. Prince Bismarck had two sons and a daughter. The elder became Prince von Bismarck, the younger was Count Wilhelm von Bis marck, the daughter Countess won Bis marck. This legal and social pecu- liarity has had much effect upon English history. It prevented any such indurated caste as obtains upon the Continent The easy transition downward from nobility to common alty facilitated an equal ease in transi- tion upward from commonalty to nobility, with the consequence that the House of Lords has been continu- ously renewed with large quantities of fresh blood ever since the Wars of the Roses so nearly exterminated the old Norman barons Thus the English law of primogeniture, which to-day we regard as a relic of feudalism, an ab- surdity and a wrongful privilege, rep resented in time past an amelioration and in a sense an exemption from the principle of caste that expresses the 1 Continent even today. Compared with the nobiliary principles of Germany l and Austria, the English primogeni' | ture is democratic.

The women'. National Game.

There is always something impres-
 sive about a crowd that is swayed by a single emotion; you get an impress sion of force, says Mary Heaton Worse in Success Magazine. These women, who few moments ago had been quiet shoppers, formed 6 mob. They swayed and pushed as though moved by com mon impulse toward table where were the embroideries. From their -throats came little dull growl, cu- rious notes.-the whisper of a mob. The noise of a mob in joy or in anger or in fright, or just its restless mur- mur as it waits, is different from any other noise that comes from the human throat-quite distinct, of a curious an
 imal timber. I heard it once on the occasion of the throwing of a bomb; again from crowd waiting for bank to open, and third time in theater when fire had been called; and now here it was in miniature from cou- pie of hundred women waiting to buy ten-cent embroideries. They were poor women with shawls and baskets, women with babies in their arms, women with threadbare clothes care fully brushed, who must think before spending each dime in the dollar, but for once indulging in the great sport of American women-bargain hunting.
