A Forgotten Novelist.

Nearly a century ago there died a
novelist of whom 1t would have been
considered sacrilege to suggest. in her
own time. that she would ever be for
gotten. The friend of Mrs Montagu.
Mrs Piozzi and all the bluestockings,
she married William Radcliffe. editor
of the English Chronicle, and set the
town on fire with her novels Scott
wrote of her that "the praise may be
claimed for Mrs. Radcliffe of having
been the first to introduce into prose
fiction a beautiful and fanciful tone
Of natural description and narrative
which had hitherto been exclusively
appropriated to poetry" For The
Mysteries of Udolpbo" she received
1900, and later book produced $500
great sums in those days and beyond
the reach Of many excellent novelists
today.-Pall Mall Gazette.

Truth wins through gentleness.
The spreading Of the light does not

John the Baptist believed In attain

The Great Teacher counseled nonre-

Throughout the subsequent centu.
ries the world has still followed John
the Baptist in spirit. but now at last
may we not begin to hope that it is
turning to the Nazarene?
We have depended on force and vio-

Stock watering is dishonest.
The same element is found in the

Dishonesty constitutes the one big
peril before this people. The question
that should be asked concerning every

THE PUBLIC BE PLEASED"
By JAMES A. EDCERTON

There was time, as we are told.
when the head of great corporation
could say 1.-The public be ID" and
get away with it, but be can do SO no
longer at any rate not out loud Nor
does be try
OF recent years another corpora ton
head gained national fame by the mot
to The public be pleased" That the
public was pleased is evidenced by the
fact that this gentleman is now secre-
tary of the treasury
The change is typical of that which
has come over the spirit Of big bust
Desss generally. The really shrewd
heads Of corporations are now cultivat-
ing the good will Of their patrons. They
are No longer fighting the governments
attempts to regulate them-at least not
In the Open-but are making a more or
less pleasant faced effort to cooperate
With the government and find out what
the public wants.
Monopoly never did pay In the long
run and never will. The pubic never
did like 4 holdup. whether enforced

1t b always good business to please
those with whom you deal and to

but by the fact that you are giving
them value received for their money.

Ton never brings happiness
My own Idea is that business can be
carried on along the lines Of the Golden
Rule and that eventually all good bust
ness will be so carried on.
The public cannot be pleased by sand

WHEN WAS 4 BOY.

It Is but seldom that see the pleas
ant Ohio countryside where I dreamed
away my boyhood, yet. in truth. ace
It every night and every day.
For we have other eyes than those
Of the physical vision. and the scenes
that we love are never lost to the eyes
Of the mind.
Even yet race barefooted ovee the
hills, tramp along the paths Of the COW
pastures and through the woods. run
away and go fishing, swim in the old
creek. eat pawpaws, persimmons and
wild grapes. play Indian. dig holes
with my bare toes in the sands Of the
road and do all the other delightful!
things that are done In Boyland.
Now I have four boys of my own.
and in them / read myself as I used to
be. They look at picture books with
the same wide eyed wonder ! used to
know. They watch ants. toads. darn
ing needles" and bugs with all the fas-
cination I once felt and are quite as
active citizens Of the republic of Boy
land as was their dad before them.
Thus not only in memory. bnt vtcari-
orsly. through these lads OF mine do
I renew my youth.
1t Is great to be boy and greater to
keep the heart Of boy through all the
long and dusty ways Of manhood.
Would be boy again7 don't
know. There are two sides to that
question. But would i be boy al
ways2 Yes. a thousand times yes!
There is only one side to that 49,
II were actually n boy again maybe
would not flnd the same wife and
have the same four boys now have
That Is a thought that makes one gasp.
You see. we would take fearful chances
by going back. Rut by being boy a.
ways we take no chances except the
chances Of happiness. s.
No. Take it all In all. think !
would rather enjoy my Royland in
memory and through the eyes Of these
sons of mine than to travel the back
trail in reality.
Relieve me. there is more than pleas
ure in keeping young in heart There
is health. perennial interest. ambition.
huoyancy aud renewal of spirit
Tt is a fearfui thing to grow old in
mind and body both. hut Il beautiful
thing tn grow old in body alone while
keeping yonng in thought
For he who becomes aged in neart
dies thousand aths. hut he who is
young inside never dies at all. hut has
drunk of the waters of immortality
And in the process of keeping our
hearts young children help. especially
If they are our own children. Our be-
ings are so wrapped mp In them that
we live their lives with them. and In
SO doing live over our own.
We follow them as toddlers and
through boyhood and girlhood up to
the magic land OF their first loves. We
go with them every step Of the way.
We see through their eyes and under
stand their viewpoints and fresh out
looks on things 1t is like drinking of
the fountain Of perpetual youth only to
be with them.

TUE STRENGTH OF BEING GENTLE


A number Of Dutch scientists be-
lieve that they have demonstrated the
Immortality Of the soul and have com
municated with the dead
They are not the first who have had
such belief. but they are among the
first to carry on their investigations in
a scientific way.
| did not start out to talk about the
immortality of the soul. however, but
about the strength of gentleness and
the weakness Of violence.
The Dutch scientists believe that
they have got into communication
with the souls of number Of depart
ed Russian nihilists and of others who
revolted against tyranny by using
bloody measures against the tyrants
Here is one of the messages the sci
entists claim to have received from
the beyond:
1--WE have. changed our thoughts
about revolutionary methods in this
sphere We know that good cannot
be done by killing the car or anybody.
We believe as. strongly as ever in the
right Of the people to rule themselves.
but we know the goal to be attained
can only be reached by the ways of
love, gentleness and reason"
Now. that Is good doctrine. whether
It came from the souls of departed an
archists from beyond the veil or from
the brains Of Dutch scientists yet In
the flesh.
In fact, the best part Of all revolu-
lions has been attained by peaceful
