He did not do this. Why? Simply be.
cause he did not know. Had he have
made a guess he is honest and hon
orable enough to have guessed they
we're good politicians, and that would
have destroyed the force of his dr..
gument
He wanted to know the relationship
Of the municipality to the national
government, aud made considerable
fun at the idea of associating pave
ment. sewerage, waterworks, etc.
with tariff, etc. He did not carry the
argument farther, however, and in
quire as to the relationship between
county and national government, aud
state and national government. In
fact he did not say the same relation
ship existed all along the line because
again the force of his argument would
have been destroyed.

WHAT ABOUT THE MENTAL AT.
TITUDE-DOES IT COUNT?

There isn't any particular set OF
rules or principles by which one can
guage the ascent of the successful
man. The field is SO broad that all
suggestions must, perforce, of neces-
sity be general. Granted average In
telligence, each and every individual
holds the key to success. The oppor.
tunities for gaining knowledge along
any certain line are so many, and in.
formation so abundant and easily as
sessible. that there is really no ex-
cuse for one not being well informed
as regards his work. The great mum.
Der of books which we have today
on all subjects and their cheapness
Quitting them within the reach Of
ALI should make it possible for ev-
cry man to equip himself pretty
thoroughly for his work. Then why,
IN the nome of all that's good. Go you
ask. is the average efficiency among
the general public so low? Simply
because so very little of what the
average man learns is applied to his
work
The mental attitude bears the nut
and kernel of the whole story. The
successful man is the perfect expon-
ent of applied psychology. He may
not know it, that doesn't count, the
fact remains. He is proud of his
work. Implicit, absolute, unwavering
| faith in his work Is his one great as
set. He has. aside from his remuner-
alton, message to impart, a great
! and good work to perform, that's the
main issue. This gives him poise -
no apology in his attitude.
1t is impossible to assume the cor
rect mental attitude. 1t must be ac-
quired-a natural outgrowth OF a
J genuine love for ones work. And say,
Mister Man, If you can't cultivate a
love for your work, by all that's right
and good in this great big world, get
out. Find some other work that you
can love.

Make Love In Public.

One of our German correspondents
writes of the great number of couples
in Berlin cafes, public squares, thea
tres and beer houses making love to
each other, kissing, etc. This is
DUE" says the correspondent, "that
only small portion of Berlin girls
can hope to get married. The birth
rate of females is considerably larger
than that Of males, and girl babies
seem to be more hardy than boy ba-
bies Accordingly, the Berlin woman
must shift for herself in the world.
There are nearly three and one-half
millions of unmarried wage-earners in
Germany"

Women Then ana Now.

Mrs. Lucy Chase Glover of Ruther-
ford, N j., has been looking into the
matter and finds that it was as hard
to make a living in colonial days as it
is now, and yet the mothers of those
days brought up big families and en-
tertained better with all their other
cares than women with small families
do today. She says that touching a
match to a gas log and lighting
wood fire were entirely different kinds
of work, and that under the present
labor-saving housekeeping there
should be less wear and tear on the
nerves. But the modern woman does
not keep her temper any better than
the colonial dame.

French Race pwindIlnn.

Great and manifold are the devices
adopted by the rulers of France to
arrest the dwindling of the population.
The latest suggestion comes from the
deputy for Meurthe and Moselle, who
proposes that certain employments I'm.

men who are fathers of three children
at least. The yearly statistics are dis
quieting enough, but when comparison
of past years is applied they become
verify alarming. In 1851 France was
in the second rank among the great
powers in regard to population, while
today she only stands seventh.

Until recently it has been a gen
orally accepted proposition that &c
zema was disease of the blood,
and that in order to cure it, the
blood must be purified and enriched.
Careful experiments and scientific
Investigations have taught us that
eczema is purely skin disease, and
cureable through the skin alone. A
great majority Of persons afflicted
with eczema have no other ailment,
which is accepted as positive proof
that it is purely skin disease. Hav-
ing established this fact, the chem

A little book published in Cologne
in 1865 under the title Of "Geistliche

Pest" gives a crude explanation of
the plague and its ravages. We learn
that it is due to the eccentric move
ment of the planets, eclipses Of the
moon or sun, foundations, earth
ouakes, famines and wars. Often, also,
it follows the bad efluvium set up by
pigs, ducks and geese. 1t is frequent

for mans sins, such as injustice in
the law courts, the oppression of sub

The Great COMPANION.

In life's obscurest places and lowli-
est tasks it is a great comfort and
inspiration to know that in them we
have the companionship and the sym
pathy Of Christ. He gives to every
one a special work, our little duties
as we'll as our greatest responsibilities
and opportunities. He made the heav-
ems; but he also girded himself with
a towel and washed the feet of his
disciples, saying, Il am among you as
he that seryeth." His strength is
made perfect in our weakness. The
common task is always a sublime OPP
portunity. "He that is faithful in that
which is least. is faithful also II
much" Christ's servants are also his
friends, however lowly their place
however humble their gifts, however
inconspicaous their fidelity.

Swedish Aerial Tornedo-

Lieut.. Col Muge of the Swedish
army is credited with the invention of
aerial torpedoes. These torpedoes are
very light, and it is SAID that they will
travel for a distance of about three
miles. They can be made to explode
either by contact or by means of clock
work. They are launched by means of
a special apparatus with an explosive
weighing rather over two and half
pounds. When launched the torpedo
travels at the rate of so meters a sec
ond, but the celebrity is soon increased
to 800 meters, the meter being so
inches. Experiments are shortly to
be made with this engine of destruc-
ton at Krupps works, where there are
the apparatus and 100 torpodoes.
