The foreign trade of the United States
is the greatest ever known. This applies
to exports and imports alike, making
due allowance for the time of the year.
Building improvements are on a
larger scale than ever before. In no
other year did the permits issued in
the principal cities in the six months
from January to June inclusive, reach
such figures as those which have been
recorded in 1912.
There is an excellent prospect that
the value and bulk of the most i'm
portant crops will make a new total
this year. Some will fail to reach the
best figures of other years but these de-
ficiencies are more than offset by the
splendid promise of other staples.
Final records for the year are likely
to show that the railroad tonnage and
the lake vessel traffic have both sur
passed all former figures. Bank clear
ings are setting new high-water marks.

says UNCLE CAV

We are gradually awaking up TO the
fact that the world can't be probably
reformed by leveling down the strong
to the plane of the weak. W1th1n the
past century We have begun the hrst
earnest effort to make the weak strong
to the end that all men may be free
and equal. Society is now more con-
cerned with making the little man abe
to ccpe with the big man than IL IS
with tying the big mans hands that
he NAV not snite his weaker neighbor.
This idea has become an institution LOT
the blessing of men and nations, and
the impulse of the thinking men OF
the time is all in that direction
Putting the shoe on the other foot,
there's a healthy lesson in all this for
the under dog. Most OF u.s., on one
count or another, are in that class. 1t s
a waste of time to circumScribe the
erest that they may not outstrip the
smaller Furthermore, it is a crime
against nature. Strength, courage ana
efficiency have always got results, ana
they always will. The milestone OF
mediocrity's opposition has from time
to time been hung about the necks OF
the capable, but they have immediate
Iy developed strength sufficient to the
nandican and another milestone has
heen necessary Meanwhile energy
that should have gone for progress has
been used by the dead weight OF i'm
beetle hindrance. The real solution OF
the problem is not to cut down the
big trees that choke The saplings, but
to transplant the sapEngs to give them
a chance to grow.
If you are getting the worst of it,
don't blame the man who is stronger.
In following the course of nature, he
may have wronged you, apparently,
but that doesn't mean that he should
be brought low. 1t means that it is
1Ip to you to be too big to be imposed
upon All the artificial regulations
since the dawn of time have been 70
per cent failures. The only thing that
can meet strength is strength, skill is
the only match for skill and efficiency
is the only thing that gets results like
efficiency. If you are not in the class
with the man who is getting more OF
this worlds goods and joys, get into
his class. You can fight him only on
his own plane. As long as he has the
advantage, your case is hopeless.
If he is stronger than you are, the
chances are that he lives more Sanely
and healthily. If his hand excels yours
in cunning, it is because he has given
it the training you have neglected to
give yours. If he is generally more eff
ficient it is because he has worked
harder and been more severe in his
self discipline If you would cope with
him, you must be similarly equipped.
Don't wait for the millennium to
right YOUR wrongs. Human laws may
make all things equal then. but even
that is doubtful. At any rate, it
doesn't interest you-you1l have been
a long time dead when the millennium
arrives.
