+ "The destruction of the poor Is their
poverty" wrote the sage of old. He
was referring, doubtless, to poverty in
character. Mary Antin has elaborated
on that thought in her book. The
Promised Land. "The poor are poor
in spirit" she says. "Those who are
rich in spiritual endowment will never
be found bankrupt" And what is
spiritual endowment but character?
What is it but the enlarging and en-
riching Of what we know as the spir
itual side of human nature? Those
who have been rightly instructed when
young and have needed and profited
by that instruction have strength Of
spirit-sometimes supericially domi-
mated will power"-which enables

Why Clocks Get Out of Order.

The reason why mantelpiece clocks
so often get out Of order is SO OBJ
vious that it is strange that attention
to 1t has not been drawn before. A
London clockmaker said:
1T is because mantelpieces are rare
Ily level. If clock meant for man
Itelpiece is not placed in an exactly
horizontal position 1t is sure to go
wrong. When the clock gains or loses
because Of its slanting position, peo-
lple regularly move the hands

to resist their tendency to pull them
down. Those who lack that power
may fare fortunately or i'll, but the
point is that no mere increase of the
money paid will save them from their
obvious destruction.

WASHINGTON. July 27.-Ambassatior
Wilson has submitted a plan to the
President which contemplates the carry
ing out OF conservative policy In our
relations with Mexico. This plan has
been in the Presidents hand since yes
terday. has been carefully studied by
him. and will be discussed tomorrow
afternoon when the Ambassador to
Mexico will be presented to the Presi-
first time.
Enlightened by his experience since
going to Mexico and fortified by con-
stant study of the intricate situation,
Mr.. Wilson believes that the plan which
he now presents for the approval Of the
Administration will not only protect the
lives and the property OF Americans In
Mexico but that 1t will have such a
markedly favorable influence upon the
two countries bordering on the Rio
Grande that all the present alarming
symptoms Of friction and possible con-
fict will shortly disappear. The Am
bassador not only believes that this plan
"'' N''hP'SV hh' buN tIldl
nothing else will Naturally. only the
President can release the details OF this
project.
Mr.. Wilson Is by no means a new
conner In Latin American politics. He
has represented the United States in
Mexico for the last three exceedingly
trying years. Previous to that for eigh:
years he represented this country in
Chile and laid the foundation for the
exceedingly amicable relation which now
exists between this country and our
former unfrendly sister republic OF
South America.
During all these years Of service as
the records of the State Department
amply prove. Mr.. Wilson has never
made mistake in his diagnosis of a
situation and when his policy has been
adopted II has achieved results II is
on this account that official Washing
ton is extremely hopeful that Mr. will
sons policy will hc accepted and car
ried out without deviation or wavering,

lief Il may b" said that while the sit
uatiun Is still extremely tense the
