A.-Mars was not out of its
scheduled course; the position for
noon each day had been pub
lished four years before by the
leading governments of the
world. and these predicted posi-
tions were actually assumed by
Mars with the most astonishing
accuracy, a precision so nearly
perfect that the admiration of all
scientific men was ELECTED for the
great mathematicians who per-
formed this wondrous work.
When the sun is at its farth-
est north it is % 1-2 degrees north
Of the equator. Then the oppo-
site side Of the orbit Of the earth,

the earth by degree 81 minutes,

be south of the equator. This
seems to be far south, especially
when rising at sunset.

The situation into which

IFE means action, from the
cradle to the funeral pile.
The situation into which
we are born and our mental and
physical equipments at birth are
the result of past actions i'll
other lives. and all our actions
while here are forming conditions
for lives to come.
There are limitless possibili-
ties in this life to overcome, what
ever conditions hamper or annoy
us. and to bring into realization
whatever hopes or aspirations
lure us.
We have not begun to sound
the depths in our minds.
The most brilliant, the most
studious, the most reverent, the
most persistent, have only sailed
about the shores of this great
ocean; they have not even mag
ined what deep waters lie beyond,
and what rare pearls lie under
those deep waters.
But we have shining examples
of individuals who have achieved
so much under such discouraging
conditions that their lives be-
come an inspiration to all who
mediate upon them.
Lincoln, born in poverty, reared
in the same hard school, sur
rounded by the commonplace and
the undesirable, and deprived of
all opportunities for advance
ment. made himself a colossal
figure in the eyes of centuries to
come through high thinking
clean living and the persistent
cultivation of the old immortal
virtues of honesty, truth, cour-
age and unselfishness and deVo-
ton to those duties which stood
nearest.
All his thoughts. all his ambi-
tions, all his actions, from child
hood to maturity, were directed
toward the attainment of those
virtues and their practical appli-
cation to every issue which life
presented. Unconsciously to aim
self, he was treading the path to
immortal fame; he was building a
character which would invite ire
mendous responsibilities and
creating the strength to meet
them grandly.
He knew what life meant.
1t meant action, and achieve
ment through growth.
There IS no such thing as mac
ton during this life.
We are continually going for
ward or backward.
You are either stronger or
weaker this year than you were
last year.
You are drawer or more cow
ardly.
You are more hopeful or more
pessimistic
You are more capable mentally
or less so.
You have better or poorer COM
mand of your forces.

Every thought, every word and

Delicate tools are these

be used with caution.

just as surely as you begin and
carry out your days along these

meaning of life come to you and
you shall know God, and you shall
know that the meaning of life is
God and that in Him are all the

Health, Happiness, Prosperity
Usefulness, Beauty and Joy.
And you shall know that earth

Grounds Near the Adiron-
3 dsck Preserves.

Malone. N. Word has been re-
ceived here that the celebrated Rocke-
feller-Lamora feud has been ended by
the action OF William Lamora in sell
ing the cabin and grounds left him by
his father. hunter and trapper. who
refused to sell his property to make
up section Of William Rockefeller's
vast Adirondack game preserve.
1t was in 1892 that William Rocke-
feller set out to acquire the game
preserve. He bought $1,000 acres
around the town of Brandon. but could
not obtain Oliver Lamora's cabin and
clearing, which stood In the way. Out
Of this arose a legal battle between
the oil magnate's agents and the old
trapper. 1t was expensive work for
LAmora, but the old trapper's friends
and neighbors sympathized with him
and came to his aid financially.
Lamora was arrested for trespass-
ing. having ignored the 5000 signs
posted on the preserve. But twice
he defeated the Rockefeller agents in
the courts by showing that the fish In
the Rockefeller streams were supplied
by the state hatchery, and that the
state law forbids the setting aside Of
such waters as part of any private es-
tate.
On the third occasion, when the
agents got Lamora into court, 1t was Q
civil suit for damages. It went through
several tribunals. finally reaching the

Miss Blanche Ingalls, Takes Post Of

UP the Town by Her
Reforms.

Chesaning, Mich.-Following scath-
ing criticism OF the police in the col
umns of her newpaper. Miss Blanche
ingalls, was. put in charge OF the
Chesaning police department by the
village council. The position was
proffered in spirit of sarcasm. but
Miss ingalls, accepted before the Of
fer could be withdrawn.
For a long time Miss Ingalls, had
not been in sympathy with what she
termed "lax law enforcement" and she
threw the light of publicity on every
flaw In the village government she
could uncover. She has put into ef-
feet large number Of reforms.
Some Of the reforms are:
Card games in saloons or poolrooms
prohibited. Soc
Playing dominoes for money barred.
Throwing dice tabooed.
Eighteen-year age limit for poolroom
frequenters established.
Ten o'clock closing order promul-
gated.
Blanketing horses on streets or
dered.
Miss ingalls, is fearless in the dis.
charge of her duties. and in enforcing
the last-mentioned order she tackled
the so-called bad man" of the sec.
tion and subdued him. He Is Tom
Ederley, who has whipped nearly
every man In the county and whose
open boast. was that he respected
neither sex.
Ederley drove into town on dry
when sleety rain was falling. His
horse, warmed by the brisk drive. was
left standing unblanketed and steam
ing in the cold while the man entered
saloon. Miss Ingalls, followed Eder.
ley into the barroom.
Here you." she called to him. go
out and blanket that horse"
Ederley enjoyed brief moment Of
laughter.
"Oh. j guess I'll NOT blanket the
horse" he answered. roughly.
you hear me-" Miss Ingalls, an.
swered And want you to blanket
him right now"
"Aw. mind your own business .
Ederley grunted. as he poured out an
other drink Of whisky.
Drop that drink and get out Of
here" Miss ingalls, ordered. I'VE
want none of your ilk In Chesaning.' =
There was sudden movement and
a sound Of breaking glass and liquor
ltrickled over the bar. Miss Ingalls,
had knocked the glass from Ederley'a
hand as he lifted It to his lips. Then
she locked her fingers firmly In his
hair and conducted him to the side OF
his buggy,
Nov, go!" she said.
Ederley got into his buggy and then
looked at her.
We'll III be d-d!" was his com.
ment as he snapped the reins over his
horses back. ...
This Is only one Of the numerous
experiences the militant editor has
had since she became responsible for
Chesaning's behavior. "
In about six months Chesaning will
be the model village OF the country,
Miss Ingalls, believes.
