convicts are closely guarded at all

A Scorer Of Money


Doctor Jameson, the man who
led the famous Jameson raid in
South Africa, is now a baronet in
England, with plenty Of money.
But he wastes no time loving gold.
An American who knew him in
South Africa tells this story:
Jameson always scorned money.
He was Cecil Rhodes physician, and
Rhodes was extremely fond of him.
When Rhodes was on his deathbed,
he instructed his lawyers to add a
paragraph to his will giving jane
son two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars. The doctor. however, in
tent on doing all he could to save
or prolong the life of his patient,
never LET him sinn the endieil and
the result was that jameson did not
get the intended bequest. But wor-
ry? Not on your life! / honestly
believe the doctor was glad he didn't
get that deathbed money. The

Ella Wheeler Wilcox On Health


If you were presented with a
house and knew that you must oc-
cupy it during all your natural life,
and that under no circumstances
could you sell it or exchange it for
another, would you not at once set
about making that house as comfort
able, sanitary and attractive as pos
sible?
If the house lacked every attri-
butte of beauty, if it possessed no
pleasing feature, you would never
theless feel it your impertive duty
to overcome the discouraging con-
ditions, by continual effort and care
full planning. If the house had been
substantial and comfortable and
lovely, but by wrong usage, or by
sudden disaster had lost its worth
and beauty, yet would you make it
the business Of your life to restore it.
Your body is a house which has
been presented to you, and your
mind and spirit must occupy it until
the day of departure for other planes
of existance. HI owever dissatisfied
you may be with that body house, it
is the only one you can inhabit here
on earth.
Therefore common sense reason
ing makes it your imperative duty
to set that house in order, and to
render it as comfortable and attrac-
tive as possible. You may say that
it is an ugly building and that no
amount Of labor can render it beau
tiful. But such a statement can be
disproved by little observation.

The chief asset Of human nature
is good fellowship and happily there
is q portion Of the prison population
who adhere to this natural instinct.
This man is readily recognized by
his smiling countenancS Sat all times,
and the alacrity with which he re-
spends at all times to any emergency
OF prison life. We cannot help but
bestow comment upon this indlvid-
ual for the stability and integrity
that radiates from his every action.
He manifests the same interest in
his prison labor as he would were
ne in the capacity of an outside firm.
He insistently grasps every oppor-
tunity that the prison management
affords. knowing that it is essential
to better life in the future. In
living the difficulties and opposi-
tions Of prison life he does not be-
come skeptical. but uanifests re-
ceptive mood when the troubles Of
others are cast across his path. His
attitude toward officials and fellow
inmates is Of good cheer and respect,
for he logically reasons that respect
and goodwill are more essential be-
hind stone walls, than in the world
without. Blessings on the man of
happy disposition.

President Taft is now endeavor-
ing to secure immortal fame as the
great Peacemaker" and sincerely
hope his earnest efforts will be
crowned with success. England and
nfnerca nave aireauy signed peace
pact, whereby all questions, except
those that involve National Honor
are to be submitted to arbitration.
Germany, France and Japan have all
signifed their willingness to do like
wise SO that in one way it looks like
International Peace is almost GER
tainty.
If these countries would only elm
mate. the part touching on National
Honor we could then be sure of
peace for many years to come. but
with that clause almost every dispute
could be twisted or distorted until it
involved Honor and war could fol-
low in a few days.
Why is Nations Honor more
sacred than an individuals? Only a
few decades ago every so-called gem
tleman thought the only proper way
to protect his Honor was with
pistols or swords, and duels were so
frequent that hundreds were killed
every year. Then the Nations got
busy and one after another they for
bid dueling as unnecessary, telling
the Gentlemen" to settle their dis
putes in Courts Of Law.
Now what is good for us as indi-
viduals must also be good for us as a
Nation, so why not send all our dis
putes direct to the arbitration court
and allow impartial Judges to decide
who is in the right.
IF aman's Honor is safe in COM
mon court of Law, q Nations is
doubly safe in that great Tribunal at
The Hague and at the same time we
could all congratulate ourselves on
the fact that our National expendi-
lures would be almost cut in two.

Men / Have Met
Ii P rison
By Rex.


It is well said that synicism and
skepticism 60 hand in hand, and it
is not imperative that one be versed
in phrenology TO locate the bumps
of skepticism and ill-will that deco
rate the craniums Of many confined

The first subject for inspection is
the chronic crank. whose presence
seems to radiate gloom and discon-
tent.
This mans habitual lamentations
of his many imaginary ills and pains
are nerve-racking. and when In

that he is looking well he hastily re-
plies: We'll nothing. am on the
