Our Friend the Enemy.

Why do we hate whatever is good for us? And why is anything that does us good usually disagreeable? The child wants to load its stomach with sweets, which are injurious, The high liver likes wines and rich foods. which give him rheumat tism and dyspepsia. The fat man loves to sit, whereas he ought to be skipping about and getting rid of his overplus. The lean and nervous woman wants to be ever busy. whilst she should rest more and grow fat.
 So there it is. It is really true that what you need is wha+ you don't want. And the reason of it is this: that what is called health is really power, life dynamic, and those things do you good that call this forth, exercise and de- ye1op it.
 Those races become ~4rongest which have to combat snow and ice and bad weather generally; in ideal climates mankind rots.
 We should grow full of moral mil crobes if it were not for the world, the flesh and the devil." which we must keep fighting continually,
 The human being ought to be in the constant presence of an obstacle and enemy.

unoI. sam. Horse Breeder.

.The elimination of racing from many of the states of the country has caused the United States government, ', in order to secure proper refnounls for it's soldiers, to go into the preeoins business on it's own account, reinaIk- ed James H. Mcintyre. of Lousvllle, at the Raleigh hotel. s'1 do nor peaaepe, however, that even the closing Of our great race courses will drive racing from this country. For several years the strict laws of New York so dis couraged the principal American own. CTS of stables that they transIerreds their activities to foreign shores.
 .Within the past year, however, number of men of wealth who favor racing purely from the love of the sport, and not because of the chance for gain, have organized meetings which have proved successful At Plp- ing Rock, Long Island, only recently the patronage disproved the contention which has been put forth that the pup lie would not support a race meet ing unless opportunity was gwen 70 wager on the results.

AMERICAN PRODUCTS WIN.

How alert American manufacturers are to take care of the demands in every new avenue of business is dem- onstrated in no better way than through the extensive trade which they develop and the part they take in per- fecting new inventions and marketing them. Some idea of this can be gained from the statement that eleven thou sand miles of motion picture fiIms thirty million dollars worth of auto- mobiles, million dollars worth of tel ephones and more than $1o0,O00 worth of aeroplanes were among the exports from the United States in the year just ended. We are the greatest pro- ducer of motion picture films in the world while the automobile business Is developing by leaps and bounds the amount produced for foreign use being twice that Of two years ago. A striking fact shown by the automobile is the marked decline in price at which the machines are exported. Where the amount exported has doubled the price has been nearly cut in two, avera ging the past year but a triffe over $1,090 each. This attests the popularity of the autos manufactured in this coun- try and like the picture films most of them go to British territory
 This supplying trade with what they want has been of immense value to the manufacturers of this country and likewise to the worlSmen. The country has benefited therefrom and it is evil dent that it is prepared. to keep on in the same successful way. Progress and perfection in new inventions have thus contributed greatly to the good business conditions experienced for the past year and anticipated for some time to come and serves to keep American manufactures at the top

CONFERENCE OF GOVERNORS.

It appears likely that the conference of governors of the New England states over the railroad situation will at least be attempted This was in dicated by Governor Foss of Massa- chusetts in his inaugural address and he plans to take up the question with the other governors for the purpose or souf>ding them concerning the plan and opon securing sufficient encour- agement to go ahead With the idea. It is unquestionsbly true that where the railroads are so allied as they are in New England that it would be possible to set better understanding and better results for slil concerned could there be uniform legislation in dealing with them in all the six states Railroad iegislaUcn is something in which every state in the union is interested in and has struggled with at every ses- slon or the legislature. Conditions are not so different in the various sec tfons of New England that there could not be an advantage in having all the states have similar regulations, the same as there might be in the big state of Texas
 How much will be attempted or can be done, with much certainty before the governments action against the heads Of the two reads, which is now pending, is disposed Of will depend upon the attitude of the governors 1t is plan which can do no harm but it may be desirable to await the outcome of the government suit be- fore attempting anything concerning the roads. It is believed that the railroads will look upon such a con- ference with approval and see wherein much good can result.
