should not be allowed to sit on the
platform with the other delegates
Lloyd Garrison, Ivy all means the most
important delegate present, made no
protest but when the meeting was
assembled he was found at Mrs.
Motifs side in the gallery, and he
would not consent to change his seat
till Mrs. Mott was allowed to come
with him. This courtesy on the part,
of Garrison was greeted with great
enthusiasm, and from that time Mrs
Motifs position in the congress was
assured.
Early in Mrs. Motifs career she was
struck with the inequality of the.
wages accorded to women, in the
teaching profession. 1t was one of
her aims to aid in restoring all that
an impartial Creator had bestowed,
which by custom and a partial apple
cation of Scripture had been wrested
from women"
Throughout her life with her varied
interests Mrs. Mott never neglected
her work as wife and mother. She
was womanly and devoted and had
the courage to espouse the cause of
woman's rights when all that was
associated with that cause was the
butt of jest and derision. Not the
least of her assets in the work she
accomplished was her great beauty.
One of the leading phrenologists Of
the day pronounced her head to be
the most perfectly formed he had ever

No soul! And who are you, pray tell,
To say TO me my dogs mo soul?"
What do you know who talk so well
And smile at yonder little knoll?
Yes that's my dog-hes buried there
A friend SO loving, full of fun;
So patient with me I'd not dare
To say his lifes forever done.
You know when troubles comm fast,
And things look dark, and you're "all in,"
And you give up, an then at last
You're plumb discouraged and you sin
Who wants you then? They'll all pass by,
Those human ones Just any day
You see 'em do it, and they try,
So hard, to look the other way"
But does your dog? No, sir, not he!
Those two dear eyes, so clear and true, :
Look up at you-what does he see?
The best and only the best in you!
Dear God, who gavest us this friend,
pray that in Thy gracious might
Show pity! And when comes the end,
Send not my dog to everlasting night

went to Lakemba to aid the mission

made such progress as to prevent the

said as she stepped to the window at
the Euclid Village postoffice. "Is there
letter for me today?"
"I'll look" the clerk answered.
The young woman bushed little,
and she added, Its business letter"
The man inside the window took up
a handful of letters and looked them
over hastily. Then he informed the
customer that there was nothing for
her; and with great disappointment
depicted on her lovely features, she
went away-this time blushing more
furiously than before.

Why Americans shun the Sea.

From the Springfield Republican.
| The revenue service is more and
more frequently being called upon to
suppress mutiny. and the outbreak
on the British steamship Baron Dali
meny, which sailed from Philadel-
phia Thursday and had to call for help
| before it had been long at sea, is
noteworthy because so typical. The
mutineers were Cinnamon, and the
proportion of Orientals in British
crews is significant and perhaps a
| little portentious. Nowhere does the
economic man" have freer scope than
| at sea, where wages are relentleSsly
kept down by competition. Americans
long ago ceased for the most part to
follow the sea, because there was
more money to be made on land. More
and more the forecastle has been filled
from countries where there Is a sur
plus of cheap labor, and II present
conditions should continue the logical
outcome would be a complete depend
ence upon Orientals for the world s
shipping. Both Chinese and japanese
are excellent sailors and they can live
more cheaply than the European and
are content with lower wages. 1t is
almost the typical thing already for
British merchantmen to sail with
majority of Cinnamon in the crew.
As a rule the Chinese are a pacific
and tractable people, but it must not
be forgotten that China has also pro-
duced plenty of bold pirates, and no
nation is composed of a single type.
AS a rule the Chinese crews behave
well, but when they have grievance
very ugly state of affairs is likely
to result. They are much harder than
Levantines to discipline and are fero-
cious when fighting begins. History.
which has learned the Importance of
sea power, will not fail to take note
of the rapid increase of oriental sail

Everything has changed so much,
and that mainly in the last few years.
When I came away the hotel proprie-
tors were spending lots of money in
advertising in the belief that there
were still Americans somewhere in
Europe or headed that way, but they
are mistaken. Most of the Americans
who went abroad in the spring or
summer have come home Most of
them who had been in the habit of
going abroad stayed a shorter time

The Age of RadIum.

From the Philadelphia Record
Secretary Lanes suggestion that all
public lands suspected of containing
ferings and the report that deposits
of mineral containing radfum have
been found near Mauch Chunk give
point to an article in a current maya
zine of H. G. Wells, the English
writer in which he tells of the coming
of the day when radioactivity will be
put to the practical use of the world
The date of this epoch-malxing dis
covery, by which the atomic energy
on every side of us is released as a
new and wonderful source of power,
he puts at 1888, but>It is not until
1858 that all the details for making
1t of comon use are worked out. BY
1855 the revolution Is in full swing,
with most disastrous effects in many
directions. Millions of miners and
other workers are thrown out of EN-
ployment, and the social and financial
upheaYal is tremendous. Mr.. Wellss
panacea for this era of dreadful
calamity is apparently a Socialistic
form of government, but he has not
as yet advanced it.
In view of the dates mentioned (but
anybody's guess in this matter is Just
as good as Mr.. Wells's) it will not be
we'll for Carbon county holders of
real estate to be banking too heavily
on becoming millionaires within the
next few years. Neither need the
miners of Pennsylvania and other
States be unduly alarmed, though
there can be little doubt that revo-
lutionary changes in their industry
are probable within this century.
Possibly, however. Mr. Wells is far
too conservative, and the amazing
discovery he predicts may come
within the present decade. In all
human likelihood, just as the last
century was pre-eminently the age
of coal and steam, the twentieth CEN
fury is to be the age of radioactivity.
ANY morning we may wake up and
find that man has made the greatest
stride so far achieved in his long and
painful progress upward.

Millions of dollars are spent in adj
vertising just to get people to come

store advertisement is practically an
invitation to come and look. The boss
spends his money that way. Silly old

been in the retail business, he ought
to know that the people behind the
counter have no time for lockers.
OF course there are several different
kinds of lockers. The kind that Zieg-
field has in his "Follies of Nineteen"

Fifth avenue kind. But isn't 1t an

| to those who do things for you when
you get into a Paris hotel.
Paris has been woefully dirty all
the season. They don't begin to keep
the streets in as good condition as is
done in New York. Why, I believe
that without any exaggeration the
Place Vendome must have in 1t 1000
holes. which would break the leg OF
any horse that stepped into one, ana
practically only the thoroughfares
that go to make up the Grand Boule-
ward are in good condition.
Tariff and the Price of Cloth.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.
John and James Dobson, manufac-
turers of cloth at Philadelphia, make
an announcement which is of i'm
portance not merely with respect to
this particular industry, but, by
reason of the principles of business
action enunciated. Is of general APP
plication. :,
They state that they propose to sell
"chlnchillas," both black and blue,
for $1.10 yard; the price for Decem-
Der, 1912, was S1.40 a yard. A part
of this reduced price is feasible be-
cause of the removal of the wool
duties; the remainder-if 1t be proved
that free wool does not entirely com
pensate for the lower prices of the
finished product-will be borne by the
Dobsons. They propose to keep the
organization intact, because ut is
better to operate at no profit at all,
after overheard charges are taken
care of, than to shut down."
1t Is plain that this firm does not
propose to wait upon the convenience
of politics, or for good times, or to be
dismayed by the shadow of bad
times; 1t proposes to make its own
good times. That is the spirit that
has created the greatest prosperity.
the greatest workshop, the greatest
output of natural products, the most
magnificent export trade that the
world has witnessed.
Governments change; the condition
of business varies; legislation may be
made by any collection of men who
happen to be elected, but the prowess
and success of American business are
due to stout hearts, initiative, vigor,
force, nerve that never fiinches.
1t is not legislation that has made
the American business man the con-
queror of this continent and the eager
rival in the effort to conquer other
worlds, IL is not lne pioPltiouo oNSo-
sion" nor the favorable season; 1t is
the indomitable' courage and unre-
hitting energy in strong men who
dare to push their fortunes in season
and out of season and in bad times
as well as under favorable condi-
lions. They are the men everywhere
who dominate trade, and such have
been the men who have given Phila-
delphia its fame as an industrial CEN
ire.
