Demonstration by Suffragettes.

Militant suffragettes took possession
of the famous Billingsgate monument
in the fish market district of London,
just south of London bridge, and for
several hours rained suffrage litera-
ture and missiles on the crowds be-
meath. stopping all tram, vehicle and
foot traffic in the streets. The women
alternated their cannonade of PAM
phlets with screams of "Votes for wo-
men," and Victory or DEATH while
the fish vendors in the streets below,
enraged at the tie-up of business, re-
piled in that kind of language which
has made Billingsgate famous the
world over.

Unjust to Tax Property to Ed
cate Professions and
Not Trades.

Gov. Ferris. speaking at Kalamazoo
before the Michigan Printers cost con-
gress, made strong plea for educa-
tion of all classes and all ages, for the
father, mother, son and daughter. He
averred that public schools should be
kept open six days in the week, that
education is too much needed to war
rant the closing of schools for any
day except Sunday, and added that
open schools on Sunday are far bet
ter than other breakers OF the Sab
bath often allowed.
The printers were told by Labor
Commissioner Perry F. Powers in an
address that the state was unjust
when it taxed property to educate
lawyers, doctors and dentists, but not
plumbers, printers and other trades
men. Powers in his remarks dealt to
a very great extent on labor condi-
tions in the state.

Keeper of Secrets of Xmas.

lord Knollys, who is retiring, after
having been private secretary to King
George and the late King Edward,
has received many tempting offers to
write his autobiography. but, needless
to say, has steadfastly resisted them
all. An enterprising publisher, from
the United States, once ran him down
during his vacation, and placed a
blank check before him, inviting him
to fill it in for any sum he liked to
name in return for book of no fewer
than $4,000 words.
MY terms would be five million dol.
lars Lord Knollys remarked. quietly.
The publisher gasped. Good gra-
cious, sir. are you serious?" he asked.
Quite" Lord Knollys rejoined, and
then, with one of his merry twinkles
OF his eyes, he said:
would it not be worth good deal
more to you If / had to say frankly
all know"
The publjsher realized the force of
the argument, and was bound to adj
nit that 1t would be a hopeless task
to induce an indiscretion on the part
of the veteran courtier.

NO ACCOUNTING FOR MOODS
Men Of Rare Attachments Able to
Work Only When the Fit Is
Upon Them.

Men OF strong will, brilliant TO
rare degree, who have attained every
remarkable success, often confess
that there are days, and sometimes
many of them, each month of their
lives. when 1t appears that they can
accomplish nothing. That conditions,
people, and even their own powers, OPP
pose and Illustrate them at every turn.
Often these darkened days come at
times when the candidate for success
finds it necessary to face important
issues. and coming they leave him
powerless before opposing forces and
conditions, and much that might be
easily gained under normal conditions,
is lost.
Those engaged in curative pursuits
are particularly harassed in mind and
failures they are. Failure in the
sense that the mind has failed to
dispel them and go on with it's
work.
Two moods rule all living things:
and all things live. The Mood of Sue
cess and the Mood Of Failure. And
1t is within the province of every
mind to choose which of these it shall
serve. Whether it will or no, il must
choose, as there are no grodnds OF
arbitration. Success is success, but
mediocrity is failure of the deepest
typ
You are vainly struggling and seek
ing afar for the best things of Life.
Cease thy striving. Sink thyself into
the unfathomable Depths Of thine own
Being. Abide there in that Great Still
ness. and presently thou shalt find that
Pearl OF Great Price-The Mood OF
Success. And when thou shalt come
out into the noise of the world, that
Mood shall follow thee through Paths
of Peace, festooned with the Vines
and Flowers of Divine Love. And
should thy choice lead thee into the
Wilderness, it will then precede thee,
carving upon the face of the rock OF
chaos, inches, wherein thou mayest
place thy feet and again attain the
heights of thy Goodly Heritage.-Will
