says UNCLE CAV

The difference between positive sue
cess and real failure is largely a mat
ter of pcise. You can't amount to
much unless you have within you that
quality of moral inertia that keeps the
world from rocking every time you
get clout onftheEh cad. The men who
keer their balance get there-those
who don't never arrive The grit that
stays on its feet to fight is it's own rock
of refuge. There is salvation in that
innate cou1 age which remembers
though it see stars. that the earth is
good and the fullness thereof is ours.
p All@f energetic men are successful
providing they are capable of plan
ming and do not go to pieces in emer-
SencieS. There are many successful
men who have frequent slips, but there
fails. It's mighty unprofitable BUSH
ness to spend your time crawling out
of mud puddles into which you should
never have tumbled. If you have the
proper poise, you'll keep your feet, and
Your feet will be neither wet nor cold.
Moral poiSe depends upon moral
inertia, and moral inertia is born of
faith and courage-the illuming faith
of the optimist who can understand
that the world is more or less all right
if you know how and have the cour-
age to use it, The man who goes to
pieces in an emergency is the victim of
a terror that is incompatible with both
faith and courage. He believes the
illusion of his staggered senses, and in
stead of realizing that he has been
dealt a blow from which he can re-
cover in good time, he imagines that
all creation has flown to skies and
sevens and that he is hopelessly lost in
the disintegration.
If you would stand against the
shock of circumstance, have faith in
yourself and courage to come back.
That way lies whatsoever you seek.
And the one opportunity for equality
with the strongest and highest and
best of the race lies in the fact that
faith and courage may be the posses
SionS of any man.

one BED FOR Ten.

Nearly 1000 additional hospital beds
for consumptives in 20 states were pro-
vided during the year ending June LIST
according to statement issued today
from the records of the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention os
tuberculosis. This makes total of over
10000 beds, but only about one for
every ten INDECENT tuberculosis patients
in this country.
In the last five years, the hospital
provisions for consumptives has in
creased from Il, 42S in 1907 to over 30, 900
in 1912, or over 100 per cent. New York
state leads in the number of beds, hav-
ing $3.50 on June list; Massachusetts
comes next with $500; and Pennsyl-
vania, a close third with 2,7OO Ala
bama showed the greatest percentage
of increase in the last year by adding
81 new beds to it's AZ. year ago. Georgia
comes next with lO9s beds added to 24O a
year ago. New York has the greatest
numerical increase, having provided
over 1900 additional beds in the year.
Only four states, Mississippi, Nevada,
Utah and Wyoming have no beds what
ever in special hospitals or wards for
consumptives. Eight years ago, when
the National association was organized,
there were rs states in which no hos
pital or sanatorium provision for con-
sumptives existed. and the entire num-
Der of beds in the United States was
only 10000.
while these figures would indicate a
remarkable growth in anti-tuberculosis
activity" says DR.. Livingston Farrand,
executive secretary of the National as
ISOLATION, in commenting en- this SUBJ
ject, there are still practically ten in
digent consumptives for every one of
the 10000 beds, including those for pay
PATIENTS. In other words, we have from
$50, 600 to 100000 consumptives in this
country too poor to provide hospital
care for themselves. If tuberculosis is
ever going to be stamped out in the
United States, more hospital provision
for these foci of infection must be pro-

SIZE COUNTS.

One of the most famous and talent
ed artists born in Holland, a land of
great painters, has died at a German
health resort, and all the world is
told that he was English. 1t is true
as far as long residence in London
and citizenship in Great Britain could
wipe out the claim of nativity, and
Alma-Tadema will go into history as
British rather than Dutch.
In like manner Maurice Maeter-
linck, a Fleming by birth and blood.
has lived in France so long and writ
ten so uniformly in French that when
his brilliant career ends he is likely
to go into history as French rather
than Belgian. And so the noted Dutch
author known as Maarten Martens,
though he chose to live in Holland,
early decided to write in English for
the sake of wider audience.
Americans are. never hampereG in
any such way when they seek the
great honors and gains of life. How
ever high their genius, it can find
ample room for expression in their
own country. However great their
powers they cannot lack room for ac-
ton in the United States. 1t means
much to big men to be citizens of a
big country. Incidentally, it is not
bad for small men, either.

REGINA oNLY CHECkED.

Hard hit though the capital of
Saskatchewan is by the tornado, which
tore through half of the fine young
city, there need be no question as to
the fate of that town. It is filled with
the spirit of the Canadian Northwest
and it's future is well assured.
Few parts of the earth are advanc-
ing as fast as the region tributary to
Regina and nowhere is there more
confidence in the continuation and ex-
pansion of present prosperity. The
city itself has risen in a few years from
a mere trading post to a fine modern
town of more than 10000 inhabitants.
It's bank clearings. building permits
and railroad tonnage records for the
last year or two compare well with
like statistics in solid old cities four
times its size.
The province of saskatchewan, in
the midst of which Regina stands, had
only $1,000 inhabitants in 1901. BY
the spring of 1911 the province had
risen to $4,000, gaining a large part
of that increase from the United
States. 1t is going ahead faster than
ever now and so is it's capital.
Such a town will recover rapidly
from the disaster which has befallen
it. There will be no hesitation or de-
lay in undertaking the rebuilding of
the districts laid waste by the tornado
and it will not be long before Regina
will be handsomer, richer and, of
course, bigger than ever.

WORTH BUILDING UP.

Comparatively few. Americans realize
how much has been accomplished in
building up the beet sugar industry in
this country. 1t is one of the recent
additions to American agriculture and
American manufactures which are de-
cidedly worth while.
In 1899 the sugar beet crop was grown
on $4,000 acres. In 1904 it used 100000
acres. In 1909 the acreage had increas-
ed to 10000 acres. That was the year
covered by the latest census In the
same periods the tons of beets har-
vested had increased from 794. 600 tc
2,175,O00 and then to 1856, 900. Mean
while the price of the beets per ton
increased Sc per cent and the gross
revenue per acre had risen 12O per
cent to $57, which is a very handsome
return from farm land. In ten years
the sum paid to growers for sugar
beets rose from s3,4s5.32O to s2S. 7s1, 900,
a gain of 5S3 per cent.

just as he reached the curve of the
road that bordered Cyrus Kendrick' :
estate the machine swung into the
well Travelled roadway and entered
the grounds of Jacob Sellew's bitter
business enemy.
To describe Mr.. Sellew's anger would
be painful. He swore as he tossed his
cigar. aside and damned all the levers
and turned the wheel this way and
that.
In his cha grin at the situation he
lost his nerve and sat helplessly as
the machine wabbled up the avenue,
freakishly turned aside to cross the
lawn only to stagger to standstl
in the midst of a rose garden in front
of the big house.

All at once came some stablemen
headed by Jack Kendrick, carrying
long hose. In three minutes the blaze
was extinguished and Jacob Sellew was
standing by the singed and smoking

arch enemy.

Jack stood a little aside.

He was deeply grateful when the!
appeared to believe his story. He could
have embraced Cyrus Kendrick when
that gentleman told him to forget 1t,
and led him into the library to partake
of stinulants.
Truthfully speaking. Jack had wink

might not have displayed this forgiving
spirit, for his garden was as the ap-
