DISEASED THOUGHT.
When You Realize That Is What Worry
Is You Have 1t Mastered.

When You Realize nat is what worry
Is You Have 1t Mastered.
Concentrated thought is virtually IT.
resistible. All the vast edifice of mod
ern science and industry is obviously
the product of thought. much of it Of
our own time and observation. The
birth of an idea in the human mind is
clearly the one and only dawn OF en-
pires and revolutions. of engines. phi
losophies. trade routes. civilization.
To class worry under the head of
thinking. therefore. seems a glaring
sacrilege. Yet worry is thought, for
all that-diseased. impure. adulterated
thought 1t means an admixture of
emotion. of the worst Of all emotions
fear-into ones thinking. Instead of
concentrated. clear. serene thinking
on the problem in hand. worry is
thinking muddled black with fear. 1t
is about as helpful as clapping the
brakes upon wheels toiling uphill.
Yet all the world Is laboring under
that Egyptian heaviness of the wheels.
and almost every spirit is q spirit in
the dark prison of fear. But once we
grasp this truth clearly. once we con-
vince ourselves that we can rid our
thought Of emotionalism. of fear, the
day of our dcliverance is at hand. And
the substitution of encouraging. healthy
thought. OF new channels among the
worn ruts, is powerful aid.
There may be failures and back.
slidings. as is customary in all mortal
effort and human endeavor. But fear
is weakened like q choking thing. and
more and more clear and unimpeded
becomes our thinking. for we realize
at last. once for all. that where think.
ing cannot help Us fear certainly viii
not And then we have worry by the
throat--Collier's Weekly.

Al home with Abroad Al Tot,

Decatur was a tough customer at
Davenport, but could not get an even
break on its own grounds. Dubuque
was unbeatable to the Blue Sox at
Dubuque, while every trip to Dan
vile and Peoria was disastrous. Quin-
cy and Springfield managed to get
the odd game when Davenport called
there, but neither of these two teams
could make any showing at Davenport
Danville and Peoria cleaned up on
DAY export at home. and when these
two teams visited Davenport the Blue
Sox returned the compliment. The
team played less games than any club
in the league, and only by winning the
last game did 1t make the first division
and finish above the 500 mark.

HE WANTS TRACTORS.
Fire Chief WiImarth Would Do Away
With Horses.

If tractors instead of horses are
provided for in Mayor r. L. Cofran
July budget the dearest wish OF Fire
Chief Wilmarth will be fulfilled. The
mayor regards the plan with favor. II
is probable that horses in Fire Station
No. under the city building wall be
abolished W 1914
The mayor has heen considering The
plan for weeks. Chief W'ilmarth mas
always advocated it. The mayors
budget will be completed by July Is;
it will include provision for the city
fire department. Mayor Cofran is not
expecting the consolidation of any sta
tions. He declares motor apparatus
for Fire Station No. one of his pet
plans for the next fiscal year.
If tractors could be purchased for
the steamer, the chemical and the
truck, the question would be solved.
The chiefs red car, first at every hre
day or night, has been of inestimab bic
benefit to the city; tractor for the
hook-and-ladder at No. was pur-
chased this winter. There are still
eight horses at the station; hungry
horses-horses who imbibe several
hundred dollars worth of the city S
money every month.
Motors" said the mayor, opt1n11s-
tically, don't eat when they're stand
ing still"
The question of expense is the
stumbling block. A tractor costs from
two to i've thousand dollars.
They're expensive" said Chief Will
marth, "but at the same time they're
not-consider the lessening of danger
to life and property which the city is
bound to protect"
The fire marshal declares the first
benefit of a motor is speed; the sec
ond is sanitation. The odor of the sta
bles beneath the city building is no.
ticeable, and has been exceedingly dis
agreeable to the mayor since the be-
ginning of his administration. 1t is
especially unpleasant for the firemen
who are housed in the building. The
question of speed, however, is para
mount.
motor apparatus" said the chief,
make small fires out of large ones.
have felt the need of mechanical
many times this year. A
tractor reaches a fire three times as
quickly as horse. While the expense
of the tractors may seem large, the
saving to the taxpayers would be
enormous
The fremen at the station grinned
when it was rumored that motor apz
partus would replace horses. The
mayors suggestion for his budget met
with universal approval.
The fire marshal in New York re-
Gently abolished all horse equipment
in the city and placed an order for 85
tractors
