THE MAGIC WORDS
By Berton Bradley

How can you climb from the crowd
 and the press Up where the mighty ones sit? What are the magical words of
 success?
 Energy, Humor and Grit! Energy, spurring you forward to
 meet
 Life and the luck she may send' Humor which laughs in the face of
 defeat.
 Grit which fights on to the end! Energy firing the heart and the
 brain
 Thrilling each fibre with vim, Humor, which keeps man saguine
 and sane, - Grit, which is dogged and grim; These are the magical tokens, no less,
 These are the keys that will fit, Into each lock on the doors of success,
 Energy, Humor and Grit!

Husband Is Boss.

What do YOU think, ladies, If you are
married and so TO work at q regular
salary, and save and save and put all
the money you earn in the porcelain
pig bank on the mantelpiece, and then
your husband comes wandering in
armed with a hammer, smashes the
pig into little fragments, and says:
I'm going TO take my money out and
buy myself a suit of Clothes" you
haven't any right TO object II you
do, he's within his right when he re-
Plies What do you mean by saving
my money!" Wouldn't that gall a suf-
fragette. though? If you invest the
money in a house, he can come into
the house, arrange the pictures to suit
himself or generally assume the role
of an owner and you haven't lawfully
any ground to protest. For. don't you
see, he owns it, no matter whether
you earned the money and bought it
yourself. If you have a position you
better think twice before you buy a
new hat out of the wages you earn.
If you do you are spending his salary
and he has q legitimate right to kick.
What's yours is his'n, and what's
his'n is his own. These are the con-
clusions drawn from a decision hand
ed down by the supreme court here.

LIVES SAVED BY EDUCATION
Mining Institutes Credited with Les
sened Fatalities in the Anthra-
cite Coal Regions.

Mining authorities are agreed that
the system of education for mine
workers now carried on in the anthra-
cite coal region Of Pennsylvania has
been the means OF saving many lives.
The various mining Institutes through
out the region, the mine schools con-
Quoted by the local school boards,
those conducted by the operators, and
those conducted by the Young Men s
Christian association have an aggre-
gate enrolment OF between 1000 and
5000 men. A recent bulletin of the
United States Bureau OF Mines, telling
OF the great reduction in the number
Of mining casualties, says While t1o
bureau of mines is leading IN this ma
tional movement to reduce the num-
Der Of deaths in the mines, it realizes
FULLY that not much progress could be
made we're it not for the helpful CO.
operation it obtains from the state bu-
reaus, the miners themselves, the op.
orators, and the various other agen.
cies"
There is better and more intelligent
supervision by the mine foremen and
a higher average OF Intelligence
among the miners themselves. There
are more and better qualified inspec-
tors and foremen than ever before.

State FOrester's Office TO Aid in Dis
posing of Timber.

pOslIl- OA liHiucEs
During the past twenty wears nearly
all of the virgin timber in Hartford

tent the land has been left for nature
to restore its usefulness as best it can
The result is a large acreage has now
grown up in such chape that il IL were
treated by an expert while still young
a thrifty tract of timber would mature.
otherwise it will never have much
commercial value
Under these circumstances the fol-
lowing timely announcement sh uld be
very acceptable to such land owners:
The State Forester at Johns Hop
kins University, Baltimore, has an
nounced the intention Of the Maryland
State Board of Forestry to extend the
cooperative work which was first un-
dertaken by them some time ago
Since then it has proven of such ben
eft where undertaken, that the recent
announcement that more attention will
hereafter be given to this branch OF
state forest activities, is Of interest
The improvement of forests and the
smaller woodlots in which years Of
negligent treatment have brought
about deterioration of the stand and n
marked lessening i'm its production is
something that few landowners, with
out some competent outside assist
ance, can take up and carry through
with success. Approaching this. the
Board, through the State Forester, mas
recently, in numbers of cases made
possible a general improvement in the
forest conditions Of woodland, and aid
ed in profitable disposal of mer-
chantable material realized by judi
cious cutting.
Skill is necessary in laying ont this
work, for those inexperienced in fores-
try the difference is not readily appar
ent between valuable trees which are
still growing and those which are al
ready mature ;between the trees which
are valuable FOR their high quality
timber and the others which are only
taking up rom which should be given
over to more profitable specimens. In
indicating a cutting for Improvement
or revenue, this is all considered by
the forester, and such trees marked
for removal as will best guarantee a
valuable and cven-aged future forest
When this is done, the merchant
able contents of the trees is also meas
ured, so that complete estimate of
the wood for sale is made. During the
coming season the State Forester at
Johns Hopkins will be in a position to
undertake more of this work, and il is
hoped to make it Of particular value to
timber owners of the State
