First Day Of Street Car Strike.

The people OF Washington met with strange
f not an unprecedented experience when the
entire street service was suspended early last
evening, and they were compelled to walk to and
from church, the moving picture theaters or the
homes OF their neighbors. Those who went
abroad put UP with the inconvenience good
and very likely a great number rather
enjoyed an old-fashioned Sunday evening at home
But tonight if the not running the grum-
bling will begin--the citizens will be asking who
to the men or to the companies in the deplorable
controversy Opinion will be divided, but it is
certain that the weight of public sentiment will
favor the workers, because it is almost invariably
found on the weaker side. 1t cannot be denied
that all the strength is with the companies. They
made a surprisingly good showing yesterday
while the lack of unity among the employees was
shown plainly by the number of men in uniform
operating the cars.
1t is only reasonable to assume that this adj
vantage, the side of the companies will be
rapidly augmented, for the reason that in the
adjoining States of Maryland and Virginia there
abandon their prospects of eventual independence
in agricultural pursuits for a life of hopeless
monotony and terribly restricted reward on a
Washington street car. They will come here in
droves and in a week or two will be trained to
fll competently the places of the men who have
gone strike.
1t should be the earnest wish of every one
that the companies could their way clear to
granting the a small increase in pay, even
though they find it quite possible to fill the places
of the strikers at the present rate. The interests
of all concerned will best be served by an efficient
contented body of men operating the transporta-
ton systems; and If the present difference is not
fairly adjusted a new one will arise among the
new corps of workers and in the end there will
have to be an equitable settlement
A large number Of the citizens are stockholders
in the roads, many Of them in moderate circum-
stances. They expect, and they are entitled to,
dividends. If the companies are unable to paw
living wages to their employees and reasonable
dividends to their stockholders at the same time
there is something wrong with the system Of
operation, and it should be made right
The Public Utilities Commission should be
able to throw some light on the situation, and if
it is not equal to the task of adjusting the diff
Guilty, possibly the services OF a committee OF
intelligent disinterested and fair minded citizens
might devise basis of agreement.

For the first time a plan for the equal

the approval of the General STAFF. The
plan which has been submitted by Mai
Gen. Hugh l. Scott. Secretary for War,
is based on length OF service Gen. Scott
earnestly recommends that it be given
favorable consideration in enscting legis-
lation for the increase Of the army
For years an effort has been made to
secure from the General stan some plan
for legislation OF this character Several
single lines for promotion schemes have
been submitted to the General Stan, but
none have been approved. There has
been a general agreement throughout the
army that onething should be done to
eQualize promotion. but there have been
about as many ideas as to how this
should be done as there are officers in
the army. While, OF course, this plan
would not be satisfactory to every one, II
is believed that It will have the support
of the service.

What Ais Prosperity in Chicago?

candidates were put forward as representatives

were defeated generally, and instead of an in

The southerners, on the contrary, pa

Nerves, or Healthy Nerves.

A few years ago professor in great univcr-
sty had serious breakdown. He consulted a
nerve specialist. After inquiring about his daily
life and finding that he had INDUCED in very little
exercise, the nerve specialist said Tell me some
thing about your father and mother. What kind
Of people did they come from?" The professor ex-
planned that his father had been farmer and had
come from long line of farmers. His mother
was OF pioneer stock. Her father had been among
early settlers in the West The nerve specialist
nodded his head. Nov we have clew," he re-
marked. II am inclined to think that you have
been revolutionizing your nature Your forbears
cultivated the body good deal more than they
cultivated the mind. They did wholesome physi-
cal work. And you have steadily cultivated your
mind at the expense OF your body. You have put
too much of strain on your higher faculties. The
consequence is that those little messengers OF the
brain, the nerves, have rebeled. All you need is
to get back to the soil and to initiate Tolstoi"
The professor did as he was told. Now, ruddy
of face and hearty of manner he prescribes the
simple life as the antidote for nerves.
Since hearing of that case I have wondered if,
even while successfully treating the sickness, the
doctor really got at the Suppose that pro-
lessor had really enjoyed his work. Suppose he
broken down? Probably not. The work itself
would have been healthy exercise. The chances
are that he took his work too seriously. In IT he
grew STALE instead of keeping fresh, as he might
easily have done. The change of work, involved
in exercise, merely freshened him up

1t is not what we do or what we ought to do
that dsturbs most of us. 1t is our attitude. So
often when we are doing a thing and believing that
we have reached intense concentration are only
partly thinking about it. We are thinking also of
the other thing that we have left undone or that
we ought to be doing that must do later.
So get into nervous worry. To be able to
meet each task lightly and yet with the whole mind
and to make an easy transition from task to task,
requires kind Of genius. Unlike most kinds Of
genius, it be attained by thought and practice.
1t can be made habit, maintaining itself all
the more strongly with exercise. Best of all it
be made Of enjoyment. The people
who really enjoy their work not likely to
break down. And those who do break down usu-
ally betray that they don't know how to work.
The breakdown is almost certain to be the result
OF wrong method, involving waste.

others were curiousy like ourselves with a strong
bias in their favor, almost identical with our own
