Hold the Right Ideals

We not only can strengthen mental weaknesses and deficiencies, but it is per fectly possible to increase the general ability through the power of suggestion. says Orison Swett Warden in Success Magazine. Indeed. the susceptibility of all the mental faulties to improvement, to enlargement, Is something remarkable.
 Sometimes very strong faculties are latent until especially aroused. There arc many people who pass for towards; who are humiliated because they have so It, tie courage, when, if they only knew how. they could strengthen this deficient fac- ulty wonderfully by holding the couras- eous ideal; by thinking and doing the deed; by carrying the thought of fearlessness; by reading about heroic lives; by constantly thinking the herolc thought and trying to live it. The cour- age may be small in person because 1t has never been called into sufficient ex- ercise.. It may need only to be aroused. There are many people living lives of mediocrity who might do great things: might become mental giants if their dor mant faculties were aroused, their gen- eral ability improved and enlarged.

One man is dead, one is dying and

Knew His Men,

The little army of ragged and
starved patriots refused to cross the
icebound Delaware.
Come on, my braves!" shouted the
colonial officers. Remember we strike
for our homes and liberty. Remem-
Der our cruel wrongs! Remember
what victory would mean to those
hOme!"
But still the ragged army moved
not.
Tell them to remember that this
is Christmas night. and that yonder
the enemy are feasting and carousing
before tables groaning with viands
and good liquors!" whispered the COM
mander-in-chief. "and that unless they
embark at once and make all haste,
those guzzling Hessians and British
astronomical monstrosities will con-
sumo everything!"
The announcement of this caused a
wild scramble for the boats, and in
less than three hours Trenton was
captured. This demonstrates the
marked executive ability Of George as
commander.

Fog-Eye Smith of northwest Wy

style of beauty was a blight. Depend

in the habit of trying to awe newcom-
ers. On one occasion, affecting some
displeasure at the manner in which a
pallid stranger watered his liquor, Mr..
Smith announced. frowning. that un-
less he detected immediate amend
ment he would send the neophyte
home in a market basket. Which I'll
sure tear you up whole lot" said
Fog Eye. Half an hour later Mr.. Smith
was found cropping about on the floor
under the poker table. hunting for his
glass eye. and muttering to himself.
The stranger asked with some evil
dence of impatience what new line of
sentiments Mr.. Smith was now har-
boring. That injured resident. glaring
malevolently from beneath the furni-
ture. replied: Which sure do hate a
man with no sense of humor."

A Tragic Comedy.

An incident possessing all the ele-
ments of farce has just ended tragical-
ly in New York. A well-known poll
tician, returning home late, entered his
block of fats, and reached, as he sup
posed, his own front door. This he
opened, and then he walked in. The
tenant, however, had had previous
alarm OF burglary, and had just pur-
chased revolver for self-defense. He
was aroused by the noise of the door
shutting, and, jumping up, exclaimed:
Who's there? Answer. or | fire."
The unfortunate politician, who was
deaf, paid no attention, but thinking
he was in his own room calmly struck
a match. He was promptly shot dead
What made the affair possible was the
fact that all the door locks in the
building were of the same pattern.
