It and cheer it and make it feel good;
that optimism and pessimism are the
results of habit; that the way of the
itransgressor is hard land we are all
of us trangressors at times); that the
overcoming Of a bad habit and the
forming of a good habit takes consid-
cradle time, is very hard at the start
but becomes easier each day because
the old habit loses its pull and the
new habit gets stronger.
You can amuse yourself testing
habit by keeping your money in your
left pocket for q week or two and
then changing to your right pocket
You'll find your left hand cropping away
in that empty pocket and you'll have
cold chilIs running up and down your
spine in sudden panic that you've been
touched" until you remember that
other COMPOUNDED pocket with a sigh
of relief.
! Of course this only applies to those
who have pockets and money. Those
who have neither. must just set to
work to get both so that they can
! try it, for they are the ones this article
is especially written for.
Now final word concerning the
uses Of optimism.
| Of course optimism is a branch Of
PHILOSOPHY; and no kind OF philosophy
| is worth a cent unless it IS put to
practical use.
| Trouble time is test time.
| Studying philosophy Is like prepar-
ing for war in time of peace.
| If troubles ceased philosophy would
cease.
Hence acquiring optimism means
preparing for trouble,
Ill ~ 3
! tie sentence never trouble trouble till
take the precaution to be always pre-
pared for trouble.
( We have also heard that our great
/ est troubles are those which never
come; the trouble consisting OF fear
/ of the coming.
| Fear Is destroyer OF energy. and he
who spends his energy fearing trouble
will have no energy to meet it when
lit comes.
The optimist escapes all that
He has formed the habit Of looking
for the silver lining; and, no matter
how dark the cloud, he invariably sees
the bright side.
Habit helps him and prevents fear
from hindering him.
He is the man who wins out whilst
others go under in a crisis. His habitual
brightness renders him capable whilst
others become crushed and incapable
It is the optimist who leads the
foriorn hope, and If he fails IT is be-
cause the pessInists stand IN his way.
I would rather be an optimist and
mistaken than a pessimist and right.
/ would rather live in a fools para
disc than a too-wise hell
Pessimlsm means life Of misery.
. N ! S m means hopefulness,
strength to fight adversely and never
say die. and 1t conduces to LONG
LIFE. HEALTH AND PROSPERITY.

Newport News and Northumberland
Come Together at Mouth of
Eastern Branch

The Norfolk and Washington
Steamboat Company's steamer Ne"
port News, bound. for Norfolk, with
more than half hundred passen-
gers, crashed into the steamer
Northumberland with a reof pas
ksengers, at the junction of the Po-aH
stomac river and Eastern Branch, az
fshort distance north of Alexandria,
early last night. The port side Of Of;
the Northumberland was torn away way
and the Newport News with 5sher'
steering gear demolished had her
stern damaged.
With a Gaping hole in her SIDE
three staterooms demolished. her
boilers exposed. and the exterior oil
her main and saloon decks carried
away through heavy ice lam un-
der full speed and steamed to her
dock at the foot of Seventh street
southwest, Washington, where her
passengers were hurried ashore.
None of them or the crew was IN
/ iured.
Drifting before the high wind that
swept the river and piled up huge
cakes of ice, the Newport News
with her stern broken in and Dotn
steam and hand steering gear
demolished, was saved from pe!Hg
blown hard ashore by the Firehght-
er, which steamed alongside the
steamer and stood by to take OH
passengers in the event that the
Newport News mad been damaged
below the water line.
/ Until nearly midnight the FIRE,
fighter stood by the Newport News,
battling against wind, ice, and a
! strong current in efforts to eXtricate
! the steamer from the ice lam. RI
/ pa]lv the fight was abandoned by re-
. Quest of Daniel J. Callahan. general
manager of the Norfolk and WASH
ington Steamboat Company, o"ne'
of the Newport News. Eight pas
sengers were transferred from the
steamer to the fire tug and carried
70 Washington. The other passen-
gers elected to remain aboard the
steamer when assured there was no
danger. 49,,
i The Newport News was lying
with her nose pointed toward Wash
Iinpton across the Eastern BrancH,
opposite the apex of the penlnSulaf
Ion which the War College is located.
She was floated this morning ana
lowed to Washington.
The collision occurred about ':3o
o'clock last evening. The Northum-
.jberland had been caught in the ice
lam off Giesboro Point early II
the morning and held prisoner all
dav. Shortly after noon the fire-
tiubtor went to aid the Northumper-
land and succeeded in freeing her
about : o'clock at night. The North
cumberland turned her prov to"ar'
Washington, steaming slowly.
The Newport News, lying across
the channel, with her bow toward
Virginia. was sighted drifting or
the War College peninsula. Inc

tho stern of the Newport News, ou'
the latter steamer, caught IN the

When the Newport News disaole'

learned. 1t is believed, however
that the steering gear was nisaDteo
