AN INGENIOUS REPLY.

A hostess, whose friends had ar- rived unexpectedly, got up an im- promptu dinner party, and was com- pelled to send to the nearest bakery for some tarts. All went on we'll un- til the hostess, unluckily wishing to show off by pretending not to know what was at her own table, pointed to the dish with an air of great dig nity, and inquired, John, what are these tarts? ?" Whereat John, in the innocence of his heart, looking at the tarts in a commercial rather than a culinary point of view, brisk ly replied, Five cents apiece, ma'am."

FROM COTTAGE TO PALACE
German Lad Restored by Court Decree to His Proper Station as
 Count.

Count Josef Kwilecki, aged four teen, who began life in a palace in Berlin and continued it in tumble down cottage, has been restored to the palace by the German imperial appeals court, which decided that he is the son of the late Countess Xvii lecki and not the child of char woman employed at a small railway station.
 Thus has been brought to an end cause celebre which has occupied the attention of one court after an- other for ten long years.
 The Countess Isabella was ac- cused of having passed off as her own the child of an Austrian Polish woman named Cecilia Meyer, in or der to keep in her husbands family an entailed estate worth $10,000 . year.
 At the instance of another branch of the family, who wanted to inherit the estate, the charwoman, Meyer, claimed the child.
 The first trial resulted in favor of the countess; in the second, the char woman won and now the court of ap- peal has reversed that judgment.
 This means that whether the boy bs the son of the countess or of tho charwoman, he must legally be rec 6gnized as the son of the count, in view of the entry in the birth regis ter. -.-~s~s~---

MUST HAVE SELF-CONFlDENCE
Every Youth Should Be Brought Up to Think We'll of Himself If He
 Would Succeed.

Many children go from school and college knowing a great deal, but without bit of improvement in their self-confdence, their initiative. They are just as timid, shy and self depreciatory as before entering. Now, what advantage is it to send a youth out into the world with head full of knowledge, but without the conf- dence or assurance to use 1t, or the ability to grapple with life's prob lems with that vigor and efficiency which alone can bring success?
 It is of the utmost importance that every youth should be brought up to think we'll of himself, have great confidence in his ability. He should be reared in the conviction that he was intended to fill place in the world which no one else in the world could fill, that he should ex- pect it, and train himself for it. It is sin to shake or destroy a child's self-confdence, to reflect upon his ability or to suggest that he will never amount to much. These dis couraging words, like initials cut in the sapling, grow wider and wider with the years, until they become great ugly scars in the adult.-Suc, cess Magazine. ,~,n-1n

Hines had frankly gone to Washing

Hines had been talked about In COM

SABBATH" OBSERVANCE,
AND THE COURTS

To the Editor Of THE TIMES:
The question of whether a man should
be permitted to labor, to engage in trade
or other occupations on Sunday, is
viewed by the courts somewhat differ
emily in recent years from what it for
merly, was.
One of the earliest decisions under the
original law occurred when the children
of Israel were sojourning in the wilder
ness. They found a man on one occa-
sion gathering sticks. AS it was the
Sabbath day he was brought before
Moses and Aaron, who, being uncertain
as to what penalty should be inflicted,
the matter was referred to the chief
Justice, who decided that THE man
shall be put 10 death, all the congrega-
ton shall stone him with stones!
Now, if we are still living under that
old law, then not only those VINO PICK
I'D sticks, but everyone who goes fish-
ing, plays ball or golf, works, runs,
whistles, or shouts in any way not IN
Guided in religious avocations on this
particular day, should be stoned to
death.
But if that original decision was just,
such Justice is now in this later period
of the world inscrutable and past find
ing out; and we are bound in the nature
of things whenever laws are necessary
to make our own laws to fit present
conditions.
The next decision, rendered some hum
dred years later, was that of the CHIEF
and Founder Of Christianity: Render

to Caesar the things that are Caesars,
and to God the things that are God S.
This was supplemented later by an as
sociate justice. as follows:
Let no man therefore judge you in
meat, or IN drink, or in respect OF an
holy day, or the new moon, or Of the
Sabbath days" Cor. II, 16). Also, "One
man esteemeth one day above another;
every man be fully persuaded in his
own mind" (Romans XIV, 81
If these later decisions are now in
force it is evident that no man should
the mode of observing any day what
ever; and this applies to the venerable
day Of the sum-" as Sunday was orig
inally termed. quite as much as to the
original Sabbath or Saturday.
OF the great mass of Sunday legisla-
ton from Constantine's enactment
(321 A d. to the present time. that
provision of the apostolic constftu-
tons" which prohibited fasting on Sun
day was one of the strongest; because
Sunday was instituted as day of feast
ing and general enjoyment, and not
fasting Yet It would now seem absurd
to attempt to prevent person from
fasting on Sunday who desired to do so
There is no doubt that the Constitu-
ton Of the United States is the proper
criterion to determine whether q Sun
day law should be enacted here in the
District of Columbia or not; and IT,
therefore seems unfortunate that Sena-
tor Johnston, of Alabama, should re-
port his Sunday bill as supporting the
fourth commandment, and remarkable
that Senator Works of California should
concur. As early as 1861, an Alabama
court in the case Of Frolickstein vs.
Mayor of Mobile (40 Alabama, 725), de-
clared that 1.-The compelling of citizen
by law to abstain from work on Sun
day cannot be justified upon the
grounds that such abstinence Is er1olned
by the Christian religion" and CHIEF
Justice Terry, of California, has said:
THE enforced observance of day
held sacred by one of the sects. Is a
discrimination in favor of that sect, ana
violation of the freedom of others
(Cal. 9, soy; wilhelm the District or Co
lumbia, Justice Van Orsdel has decided
that 1.-The duty of observing the sap
bath day, as a religious obligation, Is
left with the individual, and Is mat
ter beyond the pale of legislative inter-
ference"
The United States Senate does not
take its initiative from the courts,
though 1t is subject to future criticism
by the courts; and II would seem neces,
sary therefore that 1t should proceed
with much care in the enactment or any
law which may be hereafter construed
as in the nature of religious legislation:
And this bill discriminates against all

HON. GEORGE KONIG'S POLL
TICAL DRAMA.

Hon. George KONG, member of Con-
gress from the Third district of Mary
land, has been making study of the
modern drama and is not entirely salts
fed with it. He has been impressed
with the fact that while love and war,
the pit and the stock yards, have fur
nished some more or less absorbing sub
jects for the drama, politics has not yet
been adequately presented on the stage.
A few crude ideas have been strung to-
gether on a political thread and placed
on the stage, such as "TheN County
Chairman" and The Man of the
Hour" for instance, but for the most
part they have to do with low intrigue
and a mere chaffering for ballots. There
is none of that exaltation which looks
beyond the petty confines of a pocket
precinct and assumes the dignity of
craftsmanship, though confined to so
narrow a sphere as the Third Mary
land district, for example. 1t has be-
come apparent to Mr.. KONG, as an
earnest student of the drama, that the
so-called political plays of the day are
written by men who are in the drama
business for what they can get out of
it. 1t could hardly excite surprise
therefore that the plays themselves
represent men who are in politics for
the same purpose.
The member from Maryland evil
IDENTIFY has in mind that maxim of Poor
Richards, that when you want some
thing done, send somebody; when you
want it we'll done, do it yourself"
Having decided to elevate the stage, he
will get under it himself. Thus far
he has not decided upon the plot. He
objects, by the way, to that word
plot" as savoring too much of a
frame-up. He prefers the mellow old
description, the argument" of the
play. He is deep in thought upon it
now. Fortunately he needs only to draw
upon his own experience for local color.
All who know his versatility are sure
that the first night will be a great sue
cess, but i'll order not to take any
chances he will invite every member
of the House and Senate to attend. A
joint resolution indorsing it may be
introduced in both branches on the
morning after the initial performance.
1t would be rash to hazard too much
on the meager information at hand, but
we predict that the KONG play will be
a success. When one wishes house
built he does not send for shoe
maker. If the great American drama

CONGRESS WILL STICK TO ITS
KNITTING.

1t is piping up for another red-hot
week, but Congress evidently is in no
position to choose its own weather. 1t
will probably stay on the job till it
shall have done all the work of which
the extra session is capable. There
is plenty of the usual cant about the
country being tired of Congress and
wanting it to adjourn and give the
country a chance" Well, there will
be good deal more of dissatisfaction
if Congress goes away with nothing
done, and by so doing keeps pending
the set of questions that now demand
attention.
Congress is not so displeased with
the disposition of Congress to stay in
session and do things as with the ten
dency to sweat and do nothing. What
will it profit people, for instance, who
want the tariff question put out of
the way, if Congress recesses and
leaves the whole question no nearer
solution than before, with business as
sured of a prolongation of the period
of uncertainty!
This tariff question is at the front.
Something is going to be done about
it before the country gets a restora-
ton of business quiet and calm. Bet
ter by far to have it done and out
of the way, and business readjusted as
soon as possible to new conditions.
Such division of responsibility as
now exists is always unfortunate.
While a Democratic House and a Re-
publican Senate play for political ad
vantage the country suffers. Business
that ought to be dispatched with
promptness and decision is delayed
and bemuddled.
Public men inspired by motives of
partisan interest, whether in behalf
of one party or the other, will err if
! they play this game too far. The
country is not much interested in that
game. 1t is too nonpartisan, too little
concerned with the ancient supersti-
tons associated with party names and
advantages. 1t wants Congress to per-
form, to get its work done in a fashion
most conducive to public interest. 1t
knows that the questions before Con-
gress are not to be settled without
some measure of disturbance But
it expects Congress to rise to a real
appreciation that its business is to
serve country, not party.
Congress might as well settle down
to business and do things, forgetting
the weather and the perspiration.
Other folks besides our statesmen
sweat at this season. The thing to
do now is to get the job finished, and
give business a chance To delay
means another year of uncertainty,
which is worse than any decision that
is going to be reached.
