What is World About?

San Francisco Bulletin: The modern
world is mainly occupied with getting
things--quicker communication and
more of it; more and better food;
longer and more active life, and so on.
These things are nearly all good and
desirable, but as means, not as ends.
The main cause of the materialism
which the philosophers of the future
will certainly attribute to this age lies
in the fact that we are making ends
of them.
"Where there is no vision," said
Isaiah, "the people perish"
Vision is the foreseeing of a full
fillment. 1t is digging cellar and
seeing the house that is to rise above
it. 1t is getting the iron ore out of
the earth and seeing the locomotive.
1t is writing the first lines of poem
and hearing the last singing in your
ears. 1t is linking up what one does,

BEST LAXATIVE FOR
BOWELS-"CASCARETS'
They Clean Liver, Sweeten Stomach,
End Sick Headache, Bad Breath,
Indigestion, Constipation
Get a 10-cent box.

Get 1O-cent box.
Are you keeping your bowels, liver,
and stomach clean, pure and fresh
with Cascarets, or merely forcing a
passageway every few days with
salts, cathartic pills, castor oil or
purgative waters?
Stop having bowel wash day. Let
Cascarets thoroughly cleanse and reg
ulate the stomach, remove the sour
and fermenting food and foul gases,
take the excess bile from the liver
and carry out of the system all the
constipated waste matter and poisons
in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will make you
feel great by morning. They work
while you sleep-never grippe, sicken
or cause any inconvenience, and cost
only 10 cents a box from your drug
gist. Millions of men and women
take a Cascaret now and then and
never have headache, biliousness,
coated tongue, Indigestion, sour stom-
ach or constipated bowels. Cascarets
belong in every household. Children
just love to take them.-Adv.
Imperial Valley press., 1913-12-02

day by day, with the final results of
that accomplishment, and the ac-
complishments of million other men,
for that day and that decade, and for
all coming years.
This joy of vision is precisely the
one thing that the world is denying it
self. 1t has specialized, subdivided,
rendered minutely efficient until all
men see is the next turn of the hand,
and until their work is hateful to
them. A man in factory makes the
hundredth part of shoe. He has no
pride in the completed shoe. A man
in business takes a commodity from
one man and conveys it to another;
he has no notion of himself as he ac-
tually is, as part of the worldwide
economic apparatus. He does not
think of himself as engaged in feed
ing, clothing or caring for others; he
thinks of himself as making money
and turning over" his investments.
The worlds machinery works, after
a fashion, under this conception. 1t
works as any machine works. But it
is no more than a machine. 1t has no
general consciousness. The cogs fit
because otherwise the wheels cannot
turn, but there is nothing more than
a purely physical cooperation. The
modern world goes on blindly, and,
therefore, for any ultimate purpose,
inefficiently.
Materialism is a word of many
loose meanings. But it certainly sig
nifies this Grass disregard of the
meanings of things. 1t is the aptest
word for view of life which ends
with ones own nose. The antidote for
it is a little word-Why? What is
the use of eating, drinking and living,
and giving way to others who will do
the same, if that, here and on this
common earth, is all? If this hurry
and labor buys us only eating and
drinking we might as well be cave
men. They worked less hard than we.
It's only excuse is that it buys us, not

High Prices and the Trusts

Instead of forcing keen competition
with the promised lower cost of the
commodities formerly controlled by the
dissolved trusts, the outcome of the
breaking up of these big industrial
units has only too often been to ad-
vance prices, and thinking people have
been asking themselves for some time
whether anything is to be gained by
disintegration, or whether the best
way of dealing with big corporations
is not to encourage them along in the
lines in which, by their very size,
they may do the most good, while at

If Canada Owned Alaska

Had Alaska been purchased by
Great Britain in 1867, instead of by
us, it would be very different land
today. The Canadians realize that it
is impossible to have railroads in a
country like that unless the govern
ment does something to help them.
They therefore subsidize their lines in
one way or another; instead of taxing
the Klondike Mines Railroad (at Daw-
sony $100 a mile, as we do in Alaska,
they made cash gift of $640O mile.
And in return for the immense ad-
vantage of having railroad run on
| Canadian soil from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, the Dominion made land and
other concessions to the Canadian Pa
cific that have enriched that road be-
yond all expectations. Yet the return
was so great that the government did
practically the same thing with the
Grand Trunk Pacific, which is now
nearly finished. The eastern half of
the road was built entirely by the gov
ernment, out of public funds, and is
to be leased to the railway for fifty
years at a rental of three per cent
of the cost of construction-the first
seven years being free. The western
half is being built by the railroad
company itself, but the government
guarantees principal and interest on
its bonds to the extent of rs per cent
of the cost of construction. Yet there
is to be no division of earnings with
the government. What Canada wants
is not dividends but the development
of its isolated areas. From these ex-
amples it is easy to understand what
a change in the Alaska railway situa-
tion would come about if the territory
should be suddenly turned over to
Canada.
Such generosity as the Canadian
government extends toward it's rail-
roads would not be tolerated at Wash
ington, but notice what happened. At
ter the dominion had not only fur
nished most of the money for the
Grand Trunk Pacific, it gave the rail-
road 10000 acres of land at Prince
Rupert for a terminal. The result
is that Canada already has two Van
couvers instead of one, and you will
be hearing about the port of Prince
Rupert all your life. 1t was the last
place on the coast where an ordinary
man would think of locating future
metropolis, after looking it over; it
had nothing to commend it except a
harbor. But when the railroad had it's
plans fully matured, its future was so
secure that the prices of real estate
jumped from $500 to $4,000 for a 25-
foot lot.-Edgar Allen Forbes, in Les
lies.
Imperial Valley press., 1913-12-02

the same time curbing their power by
restrictive legislation. European ma
tions have taken exactly the opposite
manner of dealing with the trust prob
lem. Instead of trying to enforce
competition between small and divided
trade units they seek further to foster
combination and regard trade agree
ments, which would lead to criminal
action here, with favorable eyes.
Combination in many lines of en-
deavor has been conceded to be abso-
lutely necessary to secure the best
results for all concerned. The grow
ing strength of workers unions and
the attitude of Legislation toward them
is an example. Farmers associations
are becoming more popular and it is
certain that such associations, prop
erly conducted, proved of material
/ benefit to the agriculturist as we'll as
to the consumer. And only a short
time ago the liability companies of
New York state were informed by the
insurance companies that rate COM
pensation must cease as it threatened
the stability Of the companies. Al,
these things have undoubtedly caused
great many people to wonder why,
if combination in some lines is essen
tial and for the public good and must
therefore be winked at by the law,
the same thing in other lines is Grim
inal, and to question the wisdom of
forcing competition upon industrial
companies. The entire matter may
be said to be in process of digestion
and therefore it seems unfortunate
that the country should be called upon
at this time to decide through its
courts whether or not the largest in
dustrial combination in the United
States and in the world is in violation
Of the Sherman law-Arundel Cotter
in Leslie's.

THE HARD LUCK OF TOM

Tom Hankins was a pessimist, which
no one could deny;
He thought that people charged too
much for what he had to buy.
When he had anything to sell the price
was always low
Tom Hankins was a pessimist, as any
one might know.
His house burned down one August
night, when all was calm and
clear;
He'd lately had the place insured
which seemed little queer;
He told the agents up in town most
pathetic yarn,
But all his furniture was found Sc
creted in the barn; "a ~
Since then it has been mighty hard to
get him to agree
That thinks upon this earth are not as
bad as they can be.
He never felt quite satisfied with any
that made him glad;
He neevr felt quite satisfied with any
thing he had,
Because his girls had not been boys
he worried and was blue;
And bad news was the only kind he
ever thought was true;
There never was pleasant day that
filled him with delight,
He never for a moment thought that
things were going right.
