HER LIFE WORK

lady never admitted that she was any fonder of her than the rest.
 To her they all came for advice and counsel. and never did she fail them in any emergency. "Go tell Grandma or See what Grandma says. was often heard from all sides, and their parents frequently declared that they were powerless to influence the young CT folk. when their opinion chanced to differ from Grandma Wadsworth's
 Her vigorous constitution kept her from illness far beyond most of her generation, and enabled her to enjoy the good things of this life to old age. How her dark eyes would flash at some witty report! She enjoyed 8 con troveFsy as much as ever, and was keen as of old in detecting a flaw in her adversary,s armor When urged for her health's sake to lay aside some duty or to do less. her reply was, All in the Hfes work. and very little can I do towards it. The greatest trial of my life has always been that l could do so 1ittle'
 But the strongest will cannot pre- vent strength from falling, and Mrs. Wadsworth at last began to show signs of weakness. One and another of the family circle recognized this with a sad shake of the head and a mournful, Mother is really ageing. Somehow I have never thought of her as old. she has been so active.'
 "Grandma gets tired more easily than she used to do, cannot bear to think of the time when we can no longer carry all our pleasures and wor- ries to her.
 She would have told them not to look ahead for trouble. that it came soon enough, and that it all came into the 1ife's work
 There came a time when the worthy lady could no longer leave her room, but that room was the center of at traction for both young and old
 One day when asked what she con- sidered her life-work, she replied iaughingly, Children, grand children and giving advice to others. No men ton of her literary fame or social sue cesses Only in her own home did she consider that her success lay. Had she lived in our time. do you think she would have sought political power and honor?
 I think not am sure she would have said, My husband and boys rave voted in my stead. and I am con- tent to rule my household and care for my children. That is enough to furn- ish any woman a life-work.

THE TENDENCY IN THE wEsr.

As an indication of the way the ma tional election is tending, the state election in Vermont has for years been given deep consideration. For the same reason the elections which closely fol- low the presidential contest ought to demonstrate the attitude of the voters. In this connection it is interesting to note the slump which the progressives have experienced in we9tern states.
 Missouri has been holding it's town and city elections, with the result that at Carrol1ton the new party boiled only practically thirty per cent at the na- tional election The returns show that there was both 2. democratic and a progressive loss, the latter vote being nearly wiped out while the republican returns showed a doubling as com pared with November.
 Followed by the election in the city of St. Louis a healthy republican gain was shown with the republicans vic torious, the progressive vote dropping to 4500 even with the mayoralty can tidate bearing the sanction Of MT Roosevelt. in 8 total of 125, 900 where the socialists even lead the new party by 1 800. These figures simply go to show that there is a great change of senti- ment taking place, that the stren gth which the progressives maintained in November was but temporary and that those who caused the result of the cleo ton to be what it was. are returning to their party, the party of honest and safe progress where the most ef- fective work can be accomplishe ed.

SAFETY FOR scHooLcHnDREn.

Much good is likely to result from the plan which was inaugurated in New York of having a safety day for the purpose of directing the attention of the pupils to the need of exercis- vention of the large number Of acci- dents which occur to schoolchildren. When it is considered that there are about 8 million children to hear the appeal, which is made by the teachers on this subject, it is readily under stood that the movement is bound to bear fruit. Such means of carrying the importance of safety to those who can make the best use of it, both while they are children and in later life leaves an impression which is bound to finger and be put into practice whenever 1t is required
 It is not New York alone which needs these lessons in safety, though the dangers of the metropolis are great. Every city has it's quota of and injuries in sufficient numbers to endeavor to profit by whatever good will result from teaching the lesson of safety. It is possible to accom- p1ish much good with the needless and even the reckless to a certain degree can be influenced with the value of self protection. It is at the school age that the lasting impression is created and the careful and thoughtful chil-s dren of today can be helped to be the cautious and prudent citizens of to- morrow

LETTERS TonHE EDITOR.
Banks on Mahan.

MT. Editor: clip the following from the Hartford 4Courant of April 4th:
 Our democratic. brethren do not seem happy. Here is Senator MoNeil remarking on the floor that former Senator Mahan, at present serving the public only mayor of his city and congressman from the Second, had entered into a deal with the notorious lobby and pledged himself to .betray his party and violate his platform pledges all for a paltry million dol lars. That does not sound exactly rnillennia1.''
 And right here perhaps the writer is getting baldi Flies never bothered me before But if you will allow an Old New Londoner to butt in:
 Senator McNeil reminds me of the Appeal to Reason. He is dippy. He tries to express the emotions which ???2-, within and even then does not seem to get very far in the express business
 Now, MT. Editor. the writer is not now. nor newer was, democrat, and believes that politically as a party they have no sennA. for it does just seem that they go wrong every time they are given a chance.
 But, to speak frankly, where can more level headed progressive busl- ness man be found, or one who better represents the local and greater inter ests of the whole country in Q. bssi-

PROVIDE FOR THE INSANE.

An important matter before the gen eral assembly each year Is the pro vision for the insane of the state, a provision of such nature which will give them the best care and treatment with the purpose of improving the condition of the patients, if such is possible. The duty of the state is to take care of those who are thus af- fiicted and this duty increases each year. The increase in the insane pop ulation of the state continues at twice the rate of the states general pop5r- 1ation- This means that they must be given help and If the best results are to be obtained they should be cared for, not in almshouses without proper medical treatment. but in the state hospitals. where even the great est benefit results only from the re- ception of the cases in their earliest stages.
 The increase in the insane popula ton is such as to keep the institutions crowded to their capacity. At the 1o- cal institution patients are waiting to occupy the uncompleted buildings, while there are two years to come for which the general assembly must pro- vide It is convincing report which the trustees of the institution, and through them Superintendent H. M Pollock, NJ. D., makes to the governor of the conditions and needs. The prob lem of caring for the insane is a big one. It must be done, however, and 1t should be done properly and this can be accom- phshed only by the proper provision for the needs, which increase as the list of patients increases.

THE COAL SITUATION.

When congress gets an opportunity to get down to business upon the re- port of the federal bureau of labor con corning the increased cost of coal, 1t is going to find much opportunity for effort in behalf of the consumer. When, as alleged, the coal baronS are reauir- ing the consumer to pay not only for the raise in wages but to increase the profit which would otherwise be re- ceived, it is time that the government placed a regulator thereon. The dem ocratic congress will have the oppor- tunity to accomplish much of value in this direction.
 Concerning the coal situation the Charleston News and Courier well ob- serves: Tt has long been evident that the rapid increase in the price or coal, in the absence of a shortage at the sources. of supply, must be arbitrary ard artificial Local conditions and alleged agreements among retailers have been made to bear much of the blame, but these are not the real causes of large and repeated advances in the price of a commodity which is a common necessity. Local conditions have sometimes, no doubt. had a tenn porary effect, but it is doubtful wheth- CT the retailers have profited at all by the steadily increasing price which the consumer must pay. The report of the Bureau of Labor appears to be damn ing expose of colossal graft. which has flowed ont of the pockets of the public directly into the pockets of the producers.
 With the disclosures which the re- Dort makes congress cannot afford to neglect the situation longer. It was found necessary to fix railroad rates because of the conditions among them and it has come to that point concern ing the coal producers. Action which will give relief is needed

THE ENGLISH SUFFRAGE CAUSE.


 | Until the English suffragette realizes the superiority of the method of se- curing the ballot which the women of this country have adopted they will continue to injure their cause and fail in their purpose of eliciting sympathy in their behalf The position of Mrs. Pankhurst as the inciter and leader
 of the wemen of England to Earticf- pate in law breaking acts, without re- gard for the rights of others, is like that of the outlaw who transgresses
 all law and reason to obtain the booty.
 Her method of going about the read-
 justment of the law of the country is inconsistent and devoid of proper
 judgment The conduct of a campa ign of education and the spreading of the facts and conditions broadcast will have its effect long before such tactics as those to which her followers are resorting.
 The attitude which the naiiitants take is that war may have it's terrors but it Is preferable to an adjustment of a question in peaceful manner, by req : son or arbitration. This is against the best policy of civilized nations The English women are seeking superior rights even before they have the bal lot, demanding them because of their sex Mrs. Pankhurst goes to prison for three years for conducting d reign of terror in London which had a ruff fan excited it would have meant more years of prison life. Her devotion to her cause deserves no privileges above others, however much the suffrage cause should prevail. A reversal of the method of attack. would gain far more sympa thizers for this important movement.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK
UNACCEPTABLE COMPARISONS.


 Comparisons have gained the fixed reputation of being odioua; and the reason is not far to seek. They are for the most part, unfairly made Not once in a score of times are con ditions nearly alike as regards judgment is Rttainabla- It is general ly impossible to account for all the conflicting forces that might explain why one side Of the scale weighs heavier than the other.
 The general who conquered on one field may be neither braver no more skilful than one who lost on another. If we could estimate the sum total of his oppositions the defeated man might prove really the bravef.
 it Is idle to say of one man of letters that he is an abier writer than another. Authors cultivate different literary fields. Whether one or an- other is better for you der ends on whether you admire more the flowers of poetry and romance. or the fruits of history and science, or the waving grain of philosophy and meta aphysics.
 Much needless grief results from comparison of ourselves with others. We are ehagrinned by our failures in the presence of the successes of other men. We demand of our own natures results attained by wholly different combinations of brain and brawn. There is no danger here for the egotist but for many fine and sensitive soul the habit of measuring himself win others may induce 8 needless sense of inferiority
 The way out is to emphasize habit ually in one's thought the sacred uniaueness of each personality. Charles Cuthbert Hall expressed an important truth when he said: By the thought of God I am what I am. Tn me God expresses what He ex- presses in no other, what, apart from ue shall remain unexpressed. This is my individuality. This makes my place in life
 Emerson has poem in which the squirrel talks to the mountain and says: If I cannot carry forests on my back, neither can you crack a nut The parable is capable of 3 wide application.
 in some lines are quite helpless in oth- CTS. Natures equipped at every point would seem to be very few indeed; for, at least, exhaustive search fails to re- on the other hand to discover either his own limitations or those of his neighbor. You know people who can sing in grand opera and others who can cook a boiled dinner. Not all your singers are cooks and not all your cooks are singers. But the world is in debted to either class.
 There is beautiful Oriental pro- verb that declares: '"rhc morning sun rise of an hour envies not the pine of a hundred years" The two things are wholly different. but they are both alike good. and between them there need be no comparison. Each simply fulf1ls it's part in the great scheme of nature.
 Straighten up then and be your fnll self. despondins one. prone to disparagement of your own powers! Live life in the attitude of courage. No one who is doing his best in this world need look in envy upon the gifts or attainments of another The demand made upon us is not an inn possible one. The great Investor simply desires suitable return on the talents given, whether they be two or five or ten. bootb1ack who does his work well need not, blush in the ~es%nce of kings.

 Praise sounds sweet to most folks; and like some other pleasing things, it is more dangerous than it's oppo- site.

A rogue knows it doesn't take a big compli- ment to swell 8 small head. and every one sh0uld become conscious of this fact When person commences to compliment us 1t is we'll enough to ask ourselves what his motive may be: and when one criticises Us it will pay us to see if we deserve ii before we get angry. for it may be in good form to thank him for his service. The per son who ventures to criticise us may be 8 real friend, while he who praises us may be designing foe.
