THE PATH TO SUCCESS.

A New York minister wrote to seven
prominent men a series Of questions as
to their rules for success In life.
He incorporated the replies in q SER
mon, and, although this man is an elo-
Quent preacher, this was one Of the
best discourses ever heard from his
pulpit.
Among the secrets Of success men
toned were honesty, loyalty, absorb
ton in ones work, dependability, in
vention, earnestness, enthusiasm, tenac.
ity of purpose and hard work.
AS to whether it is hard work or wor,
ry that breaks men down, all agreed
that hard work would not endanger
any ones physical or mental health,
and two said that hard work is a tonic.
Among the causes Of failure were
mentioned intemperance, immortality,
untruthfulness, cigarette smoking,
making q drudge of oneself and getting
into debt
A majority agreed that a college edu.
cation is not necessary to success,
though it might help the right sort Of
man. If not the right sort it might
prove q detriment.
ALL agreed that religion is an asset,
but one added that it must be "real
and not lip cant or hypocrisy"
All these ideas are old. you say
Yes. but the beauty in these mems
cases is that they have tried their mot.
toes out in actual life and have every
one succeeded, some Of them In an emf.
nent degree.
They have proved their words.
The men that have won have told
US how they won, almost from the be.
ginning Of history. There have been
thousands Of testimonials. and they
have all sounded much like these.
The universally Of the testimony is
a proof Of its truth.
Thus the winners have planted guide,
posts all along the road to success, Sc
that the wayfaring man. even though
a fool, need not miss the directions.
There are many roads leading from
this main highway.
One is called intemperance. Beware
of that.
Another is laziness. Shun it as you
would a pestilence.
A third Is untruthfulness. Do not
let your feet stray this way.
A fourth Is named debt You Will
find pitfalls in this path.
Avoid the byways. They lead no
where.
Keep in the middle Of the road.

COST OF APPAREL d,
GIVES EUGENE SHOCK.
Former Empress Never Paid More
Than $125 For Gown.

Loud complaints r heard because
of the huge advance In the prices
charged for women's apparel In Lon
don. There is no doubt that In the
last twenty years there has been an
enormous increase In the charges not
only for very elaborate toilets, but for
simple tailor made costumes. and as
for hats and millinery generally they
have now reached a price that verges
on the ridiculous.
One hundred dollars to $125 is gen.
orally asked for a tailor made costume.
although it Is q well known fact that
q few years ago an ordinary tailor
made yachting costume could be OBJ
tanned for half that sun at the very
best shops.
Not long ago. it Is said. the ex-Em-
press Eugene expressed herself as
Mortified at these present day prices
and declared that she herself had
never paid more than $125 for her
most magnificent toilets. 1t Is quite
certain that this sum would not buy
an elaborate toilet that could be worn
nowadays at the court or state balls.
or even at the Ascot meeting. Five
hundred dollars, $3.50 and even more
is not infrequently paid for court
dresses, and many of the beautifully
draped toilets that created a sensa-
ton at Ascot this year are known to
have cost $3.50 to $500.

WHISKY'S FIRE TEST.
BY It indians Detected Dilution Made
by Traders.

When the Hudson's Bay Trading
company began its trading among the
Indians it was found that by selling
the Indians liquor they could more
easily be induced to trade their peltries.
The first whisky or intoxicant Of In
ferior quality was distilled in Eng,
land and brought to America in large
barrels, but in transporting it overland
1t was found more convenient to divide
it into small kegs. The traders soon
became aware Of the fact that by di
luting the whisky with water NOR
furs could be obtained. This was prac'
ticed for some time, but the Indians
learned that good whisky poured on 9
fire would cause 1t to fame up, but
had the whisky been diluted the fire
would be %quenched.
1t was by this simple experiment
that the term 'frewater" became a
common word among Indians. A chief
who had experienced the bad effects
Of whisky among his people said 1t was
certainly distilled from the hearts OF
wildcats and the tongues Of women
from the effects 1t produced.

Railroad Heads Under the Strain OF

Doing "Bis Things"
Two railroad men Of long service.
President James McCrea Of the Penn
sylvania Railroad company and M. e.
ingalls,, chairman Of the Big Four,
have resigned with the explanation
that they must give up work Of such
rigor and responsibility to conserve
their health. President McCrea has
been in harness for forty-eight years,
and Chairman Ingalls, for more than
forty. Both began at the foot of the
ladder as rodmen, and as they rose
their labors made greater and greater
demands upon them until the top was
reached, and then their hours Of work
were limited only by their endurance
and the responsibility they shouldered
was often near breaking them down.
Men in ordinary pursuits envy such
executive giants the handsome salaries
they receive, but they are always earn.
ed. often at the cost Of physical vel,
fare and the enjoyments Of home Life.
There are no greater bondmen In In.
dustry than executive railroad officers.
1t is voluntary s%ervitude, but Of a
kind that allows them little rest, scant
time for change and recreation, and
almost a vacation.
The general manager no less than the
president must devote himself body
and soul to his duties, and only sick
ness excuses him. There must, OF
course be a fascination about such a
calling, and it is the fascination OF do
ing big things In a big way, but 1t
takes heavy toll of vitality. The col
lapse sometimes comes when the vic
tim believes he is still In the prime OF
life.

Heart to Heart
Talks
ALWAYS ROOM FOR REAL MEN.
By JAMES a. EDGERTON

ALWAYS ROOM FOR REAL MEN.
The recent death Of the Rev. Robert
Csllyer calls attention to a career that
should be an inspiration to every poor
boy and to every real man.
Robert Collyer was known as the
"blacksmith preacher"
He was born in England Of a very
poor family. There were many chill
dren and an income pitifully meager.
Robert when a small child was COM
pelIed to go to work in the mills with
his brothers and sisters. He worked
fourteen hours every day. Thus he had
no chance for an education.
He came to America to better his
condition. While still a young man he
was a blacksmith in Pennsylvania. AT
the same time he preached for little or
nothing on Sunday.
With muscular strength he had gain
ed mental independence. He had
learned to think for himself. He came
to doubt some of the dogmas Of his
denomination and had the courage to
say so. He therefore severed his con-
nection with that church.
The same mental courage made his
career. He again cut loose, this time
from his livelihood. went to Chicago
and started in a small church. Being
vigorous and honest and having some
thing to say, be drew other men to
him. He became one Of the most popu-
lar preachers in Chicago. He was a
friend Of Abraham Lincoln, who had
as little education and as much mental
independence as himself.
Later Robert Collyer preached in one
Of the leading churches Of New York
city. He was the author of many books
and was known and loved in most civ.
ilized lands. At last he died full of
years and honors.
One secret Of his power was that he
was always mentally honest with him.
self. Another was that he educated
himself, making the world his univer.
sity.
There are those who whine in our
day that the n Of advancement
are being closed to the young men.
Rubbish!
A young man like Robert Collyer
would win in any age.
There never was a greater call than
now for young men who can think,
who find new and better ways Of do
ing things, who have q real message.
This Is true In industry, in business,
in literature, in politics and in religion.
The world always has an open door
for real men.

Twilight Sleep"
Wonderful Panacea
lBY United Pressl

ny OhitSb iiNSS1
NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-"Twilight
sleep'-that wonderful discovery in
Freiburg, Germany, eight years ago
by which a woman can give birth 10
a baby without suffering any pain
is being practiced regularly in New
York and is claimed to be a decided
success. At the Jewish Maternity
hospital 11S women are said to have
given birth to children in the past
few months while under the "twi-
light sleep" treatment and not n
of them suffered the least o did
they feel any evil effects OF the
treatment later.
What is twilight sleep?" Briefly
this: A hypodermic injection of the
drug scopulmin, given when the first
real labor pains are felt, and repeat
ed at intervals until the birth of the
child.
A young physician who studied at
F~reiburg. Germany, where the treat
ment was discovered, is in charge OF
the work here. His great success
has led to a movement which may re-
suit in the founding of a great ma
ternity hospital here, where the
twilight sleep" treatment can be Civ
en-. This treatment is declared by
some prominent physicians here 10
be the greatest boon w~omankind has
ever known.
The woman does not suffer any
| pain whatsoever under this treatment.
At the first indication of pain, she
is placed in a darkened room and
also in a quiet part oof the building.
This is deemed necessary to aid tie
drug. The first injection is then Civ
en- her and she gradually drifts into
semi-unconsciousness.
After two or three injections of the
drug she is absolutely immune TO
pain. She cannot feel any pain at
all. At the same time there is no in
reference with the muscular contrac-
tons necessary to bring about tne
| birth.
Consequently the mother awakes
to find her baby with her and she
has no memory of pain to cloud her
happiness. The administering of the
drug is a very delicate operation and
requires %skilfulness and experience.
Just enough of the drug must be giT-
en- to the patient to Danish subjective
pain. Too much of the drug, how
ever, will stop the birth. 1t therefore
requires years Of study to prepare a
doctor to administer this treatment.
