WILSON'S WAR

A T last Mr. Wilson's Mexican folly
1 has produced its inevitable fruit
war. Already one or two Mexican
states have declared war, and all things
point to a general breach with that
wretched land Then that rogue Of a
politician, Carranza, knows his waning
power can only be bolstered by the
popular act of making war on the Grin
goes.
This country never had so needless, so
senseless a war. 1t is wholly the doing
of this absurd autocrat now in the
White HOuse-caused by his foolish in
termeddling in Mexican affairs.
Without reason or right, and at
time when Huerta was in entire control
of that country with a government
sufficiently stable to be recognized by
several of the leading powers in Europe,
Mr.. Wilson must needs interfere and
make a fight against him upon the
fantastical, quixotic grounds that his
morals were bad That he was a party
to the killing of president Madero-a
charge now utterly disproved.
But suppose president Huerta were a

LETTING UP.

Business has little heart or consid-
Grafton. 1t does not play favorites. It
recognizes largely that which pertains
to itself alone. AS a young business
man or as an employee, you are stand
ing at the crossroads, one the road Of
business, the other the path of your
own individual life and rights. You
cannot neglect one without injuring
the other. Each has it's place, and
success never comes to the man who
does not recognize the importance Of
both. The right kind of accomplish
ment, however, that which counts in
the long run, which makes you bet
ter man and better citizen, does not
come from too close adherence to the
road of business or from OverdevotiOn
to your own personal inclinations.
Success depends upon a proper rec
between too strenuous business and
too great a willingness to do as you
please irrespective of your duty.
would not give much for the man
who cannot enjoy ball game, or for
one who sticks to his desk as though
he were glued to his Office chair.
No man does his best if he devotes
his energy to one thing without
change or diversion. A friendly game
of golf will help the astronomer to
discover stars. A day or halliday
in the country will make it easier for
the business man to finance a difficult
proposition. The over-tired teacher
will benefit neither himself nor his
pupils if he spends all of his off-time
indoors among his books, forgetting
that the application of education can
not live in deVitalized air.
The time to let up is when your
work does not come easy to you, when
you dread it, not because you are lazy,
not because the ball field is acting as
a magnet, when you are so tired that
you have to drag through what you
do and force yourself to accomplish
ment. Then diversion is as necessary
to you as air is to the lungs. Without
it you will suffocate or lose so much

easily return to the firing line of bust
ness.
Often / hear a young man say, Il
can't attend to my duties if think of
anything else," or "if l do anything
else" He is wrong. He is deluding
himself. He is robbing himself Of the
right Of existence.
The men who make the most of
themselves, who are able to handle
great enterprises, who benefit the
world by their discoveries and their
expertness in science, work when they
work, and work hard; but they have
brains enough to know how to rest,
how to obtain a change, even by force,
and they rest as hard as they work,
making business of it, realizing that
no machine, human or otherwise, can
keep constantly turning in one direc,
ton without too great strain on the
bearings and the danger of accident.
To get up, learn to let up.

Her Potato Glasses.

There's more than one way to han
die the cooking problem, as one good
housewife has studied out to her own
satisfaction. Her eyesight is not as
good as once it was, hence she is the
possessor of two pairs of glasses.
The other day she was engaged in
cooking and she was using the specta-
cles that she customarily wears about
the house. Then as she turned to do
something else she was seen to take
off her glasses, go into the other room
and get the other pair, with the re-
mark:
q need this pair to work on these
potatoes. s."-Brockton Enterprise.

Every boy and girl needs that part
of schooling which comes from other

influence. But the child grows up to

bad man-and even Mr.. Wilson now

causing the death of 200 Mexicans and
20 American marines, marched out
again, and conscious of his illegal folly
pretended that that was not making
war on Mexico
Finally, after supplying one after
another of his cutthroat pets with arms
and munitions of war, first Villa, then
Carranza, they are now both turning
the Wilson guns and balls against
Americans, and as The Transcript weeks

peril that he is frantically calling upon
the militia of all the states to defend

DESCRIPTION of OLD BOSTON
Interesting oId-Time Writer Well Pic
tured Street That Was Feature
of the City.

There is a description of Franklin
place in Jacob Abbott's Marco Paul
in Boston," which was first published,
we believe, in 1853. Marco and Mr..
Forester while sojourning in Boston
boarded in Franklin street. Franklin
place is a continuation of Franklin
street. In Franklin place the line of
houses is straight upon one side, and
curved, like a crescent, on the other.
This makes the space between the
houses very wide, much wider than is
necessary for a street. They have ac-
cordingly Enclosed a part of this space
and planted trees and shrubbery in it.
The inclosure is long and narrow, and
extends up and down the place in the
middle of it, and has a paved street on
each side between the inclosure and
the houses. The inclosure is sur.
rounded by sort Of fence or paling,
and it presents very agreeable appear
ance as seen from the windows Of the
surrounding houses; and, in fact, it
makes Franklin place, in the summer
season, one of the most alluring
streets in Boston to the eyes of a stran-
ger"
1t was under the shrubbery of this
inclosure that Marco hid the fishing
pole he bought when he should have
bought a fiageolet. Do boys today read
of Marcos adventures in New York,
on the Erie canal, in Maine, in Yer
mont and at the Springfield armory?

Light-that is, surface is
a good corrective for nervousness.
Deep, seeking-the-bone massage, which
Is used for liver complaint and for

patient. Besides, so many of the
nerves lie so near the skin that the
region Of the skin is the real seat Of
operation for cure. Light massage by

Washington, Jan 7-Representative
Gardner was vigorously assailed to-
day in the house by two republican
colleagues, Stafford and Cooper, of
Wisconsin when he made a speech
criticising German-Americans and the
German nation.
The remarks We have just heard
were as violent as would have been
made in the British parliament"
shouted Mr. Cooper, who is the rank
ing member of the foreign affairs COM
mittee.
Mr.. Stafford in an imprisoned ad-
dress, declared Mr.. Gardner to be
more British than American" criti-
cized him for the nature of his remarks
when every member should weigh
his words carefully" and strongly de-
Tended German-Americans Mr.. Stafford
took particular exception to the dec
laration that German-Americans were
destroying American munition factor
les with their gold and dynamite"
and resented, "this baseless charge.
which is unworthy of any man."

Mr.. Stafford began.
