FOURIER'S THE BETTER IDEA
His Philosophy infinitely Preferable to HesePs Expressed Ideas of
 the Absolute.

A New England contemporary, which is prone to delve deep into the very essence of things, cannot fcrego indulgence In an excursion into the domain of philosophy as 1t furnishes a prelude for war. It recalls how Ma poleon's entry in Jena in 1906 dis turbed the German philosopher, Hegel, then engaged on his theory of the ab- solute. He saw the battle and he packed up his manuscripts and fled He recognized the Corzican as the absolute on horseback. But when St Helena received this absolute Hegel returned to Berlin and preached the doctrine that the kaiser exemplfies. Then arose ill Russia the countervail- ing idea of pan-Slavism, at first nur- tured by the czar himself.
 That is all engaging, but there was Charles Fourier, French socialist philosopher, who witnessed the siege of Lyons in 1793. He saw quantities of rice destroyed, which had been held so long for higher prices that it be- came unfit for consumption. Then he attacked social problems and devised a system of community living. In New Jersey today stand the ruins of mills and warehouses that recall the Ameri- can experiment in Fourierism. He saw great social transformation if nat ural forces were left free to act. Sea water would be as palatable as lem- onade, the north pole would become habitable and man would develop new organs, such as an eye in the back of his head. Isn't that philosophy pref erable to Hegels ideas of the abso- lute? What misery would be atten- dant were one to know all about the absolute, to foresee all that was to come down the ringing grooves of change.-Pittsburgh Post

WEES DREAM 4 LUCKY ONE
English "Cocter" Accepted Omen and Was Well Rewarded for Eie,
 to Him, Daring Venture.

On Sunday morning before the Derby of 1873 coster named Timson was awakened by his wife singing out lus- tily in her sleep, The boy in waller wins the day-an old-time popular song. Timson gave Sal thump and told her to shut up, and, both being now wide awake, asked what all the row meant
 T dreamt l was on Epson Downs,' v she said, and saw jockey in waller pass all the others, while the crowd shouted, The boy in waller wins the day. If there's a jockey in yaIler on Derby day, Ned, I'd put bit on him if l was you"
 Ned again advised her to keep a still tongue, but the dream had it's effect on him. On the great day he saw during the preliminary canter that the jockey riding Doncaster was in yellow-Mr. Merry's colors-so he put all the money he had (30 shil- lings) on the "yellow boy" and pock- eted 60 golden sovereigns for his pluck.
 It was the making of him. He bought a new horse and cart and christened the former Yellow Boy, while Sal had reason to eXult about her dream,-London Tit-Bits.

When you see the new moon for the first time they say you should turn the money in your pockets. But it is no good doing so if you see it through glass.
 This means a month of bad luck for you, and an instance of this belief was given the other day, when bur. glar who appeared before the bench attributed his capture to the fact that he had caught glimpse of the new moon through the window of the shop where he was working plying his exciting trade.

poa Saved Lives of Family.

Extraordinary sagacity Cn the part of canal-boat dog saved the lives of family of three on board at mid. night. They were asleep in their cabin hunks on a barge lying off Wheelock, near Sandbach, in Ches- hire, England, when the man in charge of the boat, John Meredith, was awak- ened by the animal springing on the bed and barking Meredith, still in a somnolent state, knocked the animal off, but in doing so discovered there was big rush of water, and that the boat was fast sinking. The terrified man aroused his wife and child. and the three only just managed to scramble from the cabin and gain the embankment when the boat sank. Meredith being compelled to wade through water which was up to his waist, with the child in his arms. It is believed that the laundering was due to a heavy load of iron bars. which caused a portion of the bottom of the barge to give way. Hundreds of persons visited the spot to see the bed clothing. pots, pans, and other domestic articles floating on the wa ter Later the boat was raised after her cargo had been removed.

GROUND FOR APPROVAL
Pittsburg Dispatch.

A novel objection to the plan of economizing on the cost of public din ners and turning over the savings to the Red Cross Society is heard in the allegation that it takes the walters share out of their pockets" To many people this would be a recommenda- iton. There seems to be good ground for approving any scheme that will teach the walters to extract their wages from the people who employ them

TANGO BARRED BY THE POPE
Ban Against New Dance Published in
Official Organ.

Rome, Jan. 17.-Cardinal Basilio
Pompili, vicar general of Rome, repre-
senting the pope, has issued a pastoral
letter denouncing the tango and also
certain newspapers, theatrical per
formances and fashions, which he de-
clares are perverting souls
The tango, which has already been
condemned by illustrious bishops, and
is prohibited even in Protestant coun-
tries" says the cardinal, must be alb
solutely prohibited in the seat of the
Roman pontiff, the center of the Ro-
man Catholic religion"
Tie cardinal urges the clergy cour-
ageously to raise voice lin defending
the dangers threatening and the over
whelming immortality of the new pa
ganism."
Besides, he warns parents that if
they do not protect their children from
corruption they will be guilty before
God of failure in their most sacred du,
ties.
