N. N. e. CONGRESS AFTERMATH

The Mccullough Orchestra did some
splendid work at the Auditorium last
week and the fact that they played
until 2:30 was appreciated both blythe
people and the management.
While in point of numbers the third
session of the Congress did not equal
the one held at Denver last year, in
all other respects it surpassed the
other two, which is evidence of
progress.
If some people who crooked the
Congress could have been present at
the meetings and heard the very able
and interesting papers and the dis
cussion of the same and other topics,

knocked, if their hearts are in the
right place. If, too, they had been at
the Auditorium and listened to that
program par excellence, and at the
Capitol on the occasion of the visit of
the Congress to the Governor, and
heard Dr. Charl,s S. Morris most elo-
quent address and the Governors ear
nest response, they would have been
forced to admit that the Congress was
most Spleuulu tuluS.
Miss Adina Adams was employed
last Monday tipping letters to several
governors who had shown interest in
the Congress, that were sent out by
President J. Silas Harris. The letters
were worded as follows:
1--WE the members of the Negro Ma
tional Educational Congress, take this
method of expressing to you our appre
citation for the interest you have mani
tested This congress is composed Of
honest, earnest men and women who
are struggling to better the conditions
of the race. In this, as in all other
movements having for their aim the
betterment of mankind, we have had
and expect to have opposition, which
fact increases our gratitude to you and
to other noble white men anu women
who have aided us: Our fifty years of
national life have been disappoint-
ment to many of our friends, and it is
our determination to seek the causes
which have led to this disappointment
and correct the same"

It's ten thousand times harder to
be generous. 1t is easy enough to
give poor woman dollar, but when
it comes to following a straight line,
being just in all things, to your fam
ily to your children, to all men, it is
different thing. Some men are
never just to their wives. They pay
their cook s. very Willingly Satur-
day night, but when the hard-work-
ing, economical, painstaking wife
asks for little money on Monday
the brute will say, "Oh, wife, what
do you want with money!"
Witty sayings are as easily lost as
the pearls slipping off broken
string, but a word of kindness is sell
dom spoken in vain. 1t is seed which
even when dropped by chance, springs
up into flower.

HABIT.

A Philadelphia embeZzler says that
he can remember the time in his life
when the owing of SO worried him.
But owing money may, like many
other things, become a habit and
scar the conscience. He acquired
the habit and in late years felt no
uneasiness in borrowing all the
money he could get his hands on,
even without waiting for the owners
consent
How use doth breed habit in a
mani"
Habit lies at the base of all our
ordinary action. Everything that we
do repeatedly becomes easy and ha-
bitual.
David Hume declared that the
habit of seeing the bright side OF
things is worth more than a thou
sand pounds year.
Diligence, economy and persever-
ance are habits that carry life as
steadily to success as favoring winds
carry ship at sea.
Depravity is not an inheritance
but character formed by persistent
habits. And rectitude is only the
confirmed habit of doing what il
right
The truth is not simply that W.
MAY form habits we MUST form
habits.
We cannot do or say or think o
feel anything without leaving def
mite mark on the nervous organism
which more or less affects all sue
ceeding action or speech or though
Or feeling.
Could the young but realize ho'
soon they will become mere walkin
bundles of habits, they would TAX
lcare to have those habits helpful il
stead of harmful.

Song From the Soul.

1t has remained for a woman, born
deaf, mute and blind, to teach us pa
tience, to urge us to make higher
uses of great gifts, to escape from
the deadening Imprisonment of our
own selfish Senses to permit no en-
yironment to dismay us, no condi-
tions to bind us, no obstacles to baf-
file:
Helen Keller, deaf, mute, blind,
has nevertheless found means by
which her soul communicates with
the world about her, receiving and
giving instruction and inspiration.
In spite of her seemingly insuper-
able disadvantages, she has become
highly educated in the best sense of
the word. She has stored her mind
with the best learning that science
and literature afford. And that
learning and the broadened love ana
sympathies born of it strive to find
expression, as the shoot creeps from
its seed-germ to the light. And
nothing can restrain it.
Born mute, she has slowly and pain
fully acquired the power of speech.
Every word gained is to her more
than nugget of gold She does not
use them idly.
And now she has astonished the
savants of the world by singing in
perfect pitch, and making a speech
in English, French and German, every
word rich in appeal to the world fol
, help for the unfortunate.
And we who have every advantage
prate of our lack of advantages; we
born to perfect conditions, complain
of want of chances to make good
Helen Keller, the blind, has seel
more clearly than have most person
who have physical eyes; she, tn
2 deaf, has heard more clearly TIL
] pleadings of the afflicted than hav
q we who have ears; she, the mute, ha
spoken more eloquently for ther

TALKS ON ADVERTISING TO It'd
INGS READERS.
" (By Ralph Kaye.)

Advertising is a branch or an arm
of the business world, the same as
law or medicine. There isn't man
in the world who, when he is sick,
would call up his doctor to tell him
what's the matter without first being
thoroughly examined to learn the
true state of his condition. Again.
there isn't a business man who, when
he has a law case on his hands, eX-
poets his lawyer to win without first
telling him every detail in connec-
tion with the case. Then why should
business men neglect the matter OF
advertising, which will cure his bust
ness ills and plead his case before
the public, if given square deal?
Good advertising demands proper
attention, personal interest and plen-
| ty of time. 1t cannot be done in a
minute, or a day, or possibly a week.
Instead of last-minute proposition
it is first-minute one.

crease in value due to activities not
his own. There is very real need
that this nation shall seriously pre-
pare itself for the task of remedying
social problems by well-considered
governmental effort; and the best
preparation for such wise action is
to test by actual experiment under
favorable conditions the devices
which we have reason to believe will
work well, but which it is difficult
to apply in old settled communities
without preliminary experiment,

UNREASONABLE PUBLICITY.

We earnestly commend the atten-
tion of the United States supreme
court to the courts of Massachusetts,
home of witchcraft, Plymouth rocks,
eaIicoes and shoes. Judges Colt,
Putnam and Brown of that enlight-
ened commonwealth have decided to
investigate the Shoe Machinery
Trust in star chamber because, as
one of the judges puts it, there's
been too much Of this kind Of public
ity about trusts already"
Publicity is bad for the trusts and
bad for the courts, How can Judge
preserve his judicial temperament
when he knows that Tie public will
be informed every time he hands JUS
tice, hog-tied and gagged, over to
the corporations Verify, there is
reasonable publicity and unreason-
able publicity and our beloved U. S,
supreme court should draw the line.
The Shoe Machinery Trust eXacts
tribute from every man, woman and
child who does not always go bare
foot, but let us deal with it softly

Panama canal in so developing the
Mississippi as to make it mighty
highroad of commerce, and a source
of fructification and not of death to
the rich and fertile lands lying along
its lower length.
In the west, the forests, the graz
ing lands, the reserves of every kind,
should be so handled as to be in the
interests of the actual settler, the
actual home-maker. He should be
encouraged to use them at once, but
in such a way as to preserve and not
exhaust them. We do not intend that
our natural resources shall be eX-
plotted by the few against the inter-
ests of the many, nor do we intend
to turn them over to any man who
will wastefully use them by destruc-
ton, and leave to those who come
after us a heritage damaged by just
so much. The man in whose inter-
ests we are working is the small
farmer and settler, the man who
works with his own hands, who is
working not only for himself but for
his children, and who wishes to leave
to them the fruits of his labor His
permanent welfare is the prime fac
tor for consideration in developing
the policy of conservation; for our
aim is to preserve our natural re-
sources for the public as a whole, for
the average man and the average
woman who make up the body of the
American people.

What Is the Price?

The above question is heard in
business circles probably oftener
than any other. Every customer
wishes to know, before purchasing,
what the cost is to be. This is wise i;
and it would also be wise in all the
affairs of life, before committing our
selves to anything, to pause and in
quire, What is the price?" For TO
everything in this world there is af-
fixed price, and the price that must
be paid We may for a time lose
sight of this fact, but it is a fact
still and will reassert itself when we
least expect it. The thief may for
get in his momentary temptation to
steal that there is a price attached
to stealing; but when he stands be-
hind iron bars and the dreary round
of the prison is grinding the life out
of him, he will remember that the
price must be paid.
And so in everything else. Every
action, great or small, has it's own
price attached Delay it as long as
you can, BATTLE with the workings OF
Providence as you will, the account
must be paid. In all your actions
then, count the cost. Ask yourself
always, What is the price?" Yor
will frequently hear customer in
form the merchant that the price is
too high. Beware, in the market o.
life, of purchasing the things that are
too dear. When tempted to violate
the law of the land, look on thu
gloomy prison walls and refrain Be
fore using single harsh word, be
fore doing the slightest unkind ac
ton, reflect that it has a price. Th'
purchaser of earthly goods often com
plains that he has paid too much
so will it be with many of us. rAnC
it may be that some of us may re
pent through countless ages, that TO
some mere earthly gain or pleasur
we have paid the price of eterna
ruin.
