Watching The Wheels.

lntroSpectiOn is all right fol-
the psychologist whose business
In life Is to take the cap off his
brain and watch the Wheel; 20
round, but it is very bad for {
man who has anything else to do
The man who begins to anaIyze
| himself, to weigh his motives. tC
discover how much is saint and
how much Sinner-in fact, tC
waste his thought on himself is
pretty sure to get into trouble,
1t is all right for one to know
himself; but a mere speaking &C.
quaintance is better than MI
crOscopic study Of ones interior
workings. In the first place a
too close acquain tanceship with
ones self is likely to cause a big
slump IN self-respect, and is not
good. A mans soul is like a
house; no matter how good it is,
the owner can find fault with it
if he tries.
Then, too, much iEgrown think
ing will result in morbidness
which ends in solf~pity, is worse
than the yellow jaundice. A man
who gets sorry for himself is
just about as useful and com
panionable as a whipped dog
with a sore foot.
A man should know something
of his mental processes, have a
rough knowledge of his own ca
liabilities and weaknesses; know
whether he is am bilious or mere
~ a thief; whether he is really
friendly or merely a CRATER,
whether be Can trust himself in
a hard fight with man, woman or
devil. But he should get this
information from general aid
lmpersOnal observation of his
own acts, just as he would from
those of another. TO begin to
probe for this shallowness and
that shoddiness to brood and
cogitate over What | am and
what | ought to be-" is pretty
sure not to lead to What |
ought to be-.
The best man and the happiest
man is one who lays out a good,
honest, manly piece of work, and
goes at it whole heartedly, pro
jecting his thoughts outside of
himself. Such a man forgets to
be selfish, and morbid, and fear
full. He acts right and accomp-
fishes things instinctively be-
cause it is part of his life to do
that. Every one of US has plenty
of trouble tanked up inside, and
as sure as he goes prying around
in his consciousness he will stir
it up. Troubles are like mo-
squitoes, they breed mighty fast
in an open rain barrel; but when
the lid is on they soon disappear.
Let the wheels alone; don't
bother about how they work,
but keep them working.

A Difference and a Distinction.

Republican county officers who besought the
Legislature to raise their salaries come in for a

temporary But this same World-Herald to this

Jail feeding graft, which the reform democratic
sheriff tried to put across after obtaining votes
from the people under misrepresentation that
he would be content with the $4,000 salary at

There's difference and distinction between
seeking raise of salary by lawful means, and
picking the taxpayers pocket by grabbing In
sanity fees or gougng extra profits out OF feed
ing jail prisoners.
There's difference and distinction. too, be-
tween public officer asking the legislature to in

and public officer hiring lawyers to upset laws

Where Hindus Are Welcome.

Not many weeks ago n shipload OF Hndus
was denied the privilege OF landing on Canadian
SOIL II took vigorous, even violent measures to
prevent the landing. The Hindus 1t was said
felt aggrieved at Mother England's failure to
intervene in their behalf. No doubt the maternal
heart yearned to appease the raternal strife. but
the maternal head was far too wise to let mere
emotion override reason, and lead to the rash
extreme of attempting to dissuade Canada.
At last. however, dear old Mother England
has found landing place for her Hindus where
questions are asked and the word welcome
is writ In the very air. II the port of Vancouver
was cold and forbdding, the sunny shores of
Marseilles must seem the very highest haven of
hospitality. For to old Mother England has
come time when uniformed Hindus and Can
adams look alike. For the time being, all the
elements of Britains far-flung lines OF population
may be brought into closer harmony than ever
before by the common demand that means SO
much to the sovereignty on which the sun
never sets"
