 that is charming without becoming in sipid, sweet without becoming sacch- arine. The story in brief, is concerned
 with Sally, her father, Giles, his fa- ther, the Earl of Bateson, and MT. An nesley, who owns the beautiful gar den of roses, into which Sally goes for her flowers for her fathers church. She does not realize that she is trespassing on property, neither does she realize that in going into

ALASKA NOT TO COME VIA THE
 OUTSIDE

Advices received by Tom Talent, local agent for the Alaska Steamship Company, announce that the plans for the steamship Alaska have been changed, and that the steamship, in stead of sailing from Seattle direct for Cordova via the outside passage, will come by the inside route, but on her return will sail from Cordova to Seattle via the outside.
 The change in routes means that the Alaska, which was expected here Sunday, will not arrive until Tues day.
 The steamship Mariposa, of the Alaska Steamship Company, is due to arrive from the west Monday.
 The steamship Alameda was sche' duled to sail from Seattle for the north today.

Other People

From publication by the inmates of the Disci-
plinary Barracks at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan, we re-
print the following:
Since we are human beings we are dependent
on one another for the attainment of our happiness
We seek inspiration in our endeavors ENCOURAGE
ment in projects and satisfaction in our success
from the presence of those with whom our lot is
cast.
However, it is the unfortunate experience of
many OF us to come in frequent contact with peo-
pie whose presence is Obnoxious trying and pro-
ductive of much misery Do what we will. we can
not seem to exercise real Christian Charity towards
such such party, whose constant intercourse with
us causes much distress of mind and does incalcu-
liable harm to our souls All efforts to advance in
spiritual perfection hopeless while we have to
tolerate this constant association of sin. few sug-
gestOns may be welcomed by the the honest lover
of peace.
Our neghbor's criticisms or cutting remarks
may furnish us fuel for the fire. We are too often
ready to resent such remarks before we consider
whether they be deserved, and seldom look for the
evidence of kindly attitude in critic. How
ever, whether the of resentment be lust or
not the chief explanation of the consequent suffer-
Ing lies IN ourselves. Despite the severity of the
unkindness of our neighbor. it is our resistance to
his actions that begets our annoyance.
1t is our unwillingness to accept in an humble
and condescendng spirit his attacks that draws out
the venom and bitterness of our nature The rem.
edy for this grace-desroying agent lies in the
Chrst-like practice of n-resistance. How quick
ly mans anger subsidies when he perceives that
the object of his wrath is plant, yielding and de-
void of any retaliation that might lend material to
the flame. Thus by offering opposition to the harsh
treatment of others, not only hurt ourselves but
promote the further estrangement of others from
the Prince of Peace. By failing to initiate the ex
ample of the silent and innocent Master before
Pilate we deprive ourselves of much spiritual profit
and foment IN souls violent passions destruct-
i've to true Christian peace This spirit of resist
also goads on the attacks of our antagonists.
and so blinds intellects that we are unable to

REMORSE AND REPENTANCE

Let us never confuse remorse with repentance.
Remorse is born of fear and kills the will; repent
is alght with hope and courage and resolution
Remorse disintegrates; repentance builds. Remorse
looks backward into shadows; repentance looks for
ward into new life and a new way Seen thru re-
morse the past threatens and parayzes seen in re-
pentance it teaches and guides. Let past mistakes
have their burial. What you did you can not
change; the who did it you have already-in
repentance-willed to change and have begun to
change and regaining the right to your sef-re-
spect.
Now see the changed quality of the future Suf-
ferine there must be. No life is worth anything
without that. 1t will be no more than necessary to
show you how to complete in yourself that change
you would not know your nature deeply enough to
complete without it. As that is done, step by step
1t passes for that it's purpose. Search into 1t;
trust it, find it's meaning work with it: so will it's
burden be light and it's guidance very plain.
Behind all life is profound compassion that is
nearest to him who suffers most. And this, when
its presence and touch known, makes all suffer-
ing welcome.-The New Way.

Most of us who. in the course of business or in
clination, have developed for literature of
certain knd--say. the novel and the romance-pre-
fer works by our own lists of favored authors.
These, II the taste be for modern and American au-
thors. include Chambers, Ade. Twain, Phillips,
Weyman, McGrath. Nicholson, Wister, Merwin,
Harrington, and score of others. Outside Of our
list we seldom go in quest of adventure.
This loyalty to favored ones is costing us lots of
pleasure If we want to prove the statement let us

that appeals to u.s. regardless of prestige of
author. We will be surprised to find that some of
the best stories ever written by authors who
have fared" out: that is, who have for various
reasons written only single book, or perhaps two
There are many such writer's who have given to the
world of literature books that are genuine master
pieces of fiction
The mere fact that an author has written but
one book does not imply his failure as a writer.
The unknown author often quits the game because
of lack of funds with which to pursue his work The
first book unless it is we'll advertised, seldom pays
the author any considerable sum of money. And
even when the necessary publicity has been given
the work, his chances for decent royalty from the
publishers slim, the latter takes all the
chances for pecuniary loss and therefore takes most
of the profit.
The late Morgan Robertson, in one Of his
splendid stories, states that Hope of reward. and
fear of punishment" has civilized the world.
Here, in a seven-word phrase, is the secret
of the of Christianity, and for that natter
any one OF the three paramount religions
Mankind is in it's customs and beliefs, be-
cause Of it's hope of reward,'' and fear of punish
ment." Every thing we do for our uplift material
or spiritual, is with the idea that we will gain. And
mankind, so we claim, strives to maintain it's sane
beliefs because of the hope of reward" in the fu-
ture
However, Morgan Robertson knew the world
of men as few men did. Perchance the latter half
of his phrase and fear of punishment"-expains
the real reason for apparent goodness
The Interpretation of Morgan's phrase decides
it's meaning to the individual. Did he intend re-
ward" and punishment to be taken in a material
spiritual sense? In deciding the Interpretation,
IL is necessary to take into consideration that while
Morgan's early was of the Jack London type
his works demonstrate a decided leaning towards
the mystical.

A MILLION MEN.

! II il is true that an army in ttie
United States must be at least 1000, 0O0
men to be adequate, and nobody doubts
the estimate since Europe is using
| 100000 on a side, we might as well
pass up the idea of a standing army
| at once.
The magnitude of this army forces us
to some form of militia; a citizen army
which shall be trained, armed and Of
| fcered but which shall be at work in
the occupations Of peace until needed
and not on our backs like the Old Man
of the Sea
Shall this citizen soldiery be organ
lied and differed from Washington or
shall each state appoint officers for it's
own citizen soldiers? In Switzerland
the states control the militia and in
Germany the states control all officers
up to those in highest command who
have supervision over large divisions.
Why not provide for federal aid to
the state militia, give the states, super
vision over their own troops and Of
f1cers but provide for a ordination
of all the state troops in time of ma
uonal need and place the state troops
and their officers then under the COM
mand Of regular United States army
officers only when called out in de-
tense of the whole nation?
The conditions upon which federal
aid could be received would compel
equipment and training of the kind and
degree satisfactory to the federal mill
tary authorities because no state could
afford to refuse to meet the federal re-
which it could receive by CO. ordinating
its troops with those of other states
into we'll balanced national army. he
agricultural states could be long on
cavalry and the industrial states long
on artillery while the southern states
could provide a major portion of in
fantry we'll trained in the use of arms
A small amount of money each year in
the way of federal aid would raise and
equip an enormous army in a state
militia and still every rule laid down
by federal authorities for the purpose
OF co-ordinating the state soldiers into
a national army could be forced by
making compliance the price Of aid
from Uncle Sam. An army Of a million
men in the nation would be only one
soldier to 100 people. 300 soldiers in the
state militia from Marshall county and
200 from Hardin They would never
need lose more than few weeks from
their private business in a year and
that would be worth while as. a vaca-
ton and lark on pay.
