love not Man the less, but Nature
mOre.--LOrd Byron.
Fear.

There is no means of solving the
cause of fear. 1t may be laid at the
door of cowardice, or it may come
inexplicable cause. We are told to
let our fears rise to the highest pitch,
so that some consolation may come
after it is all over. There is little
sense in that theory.
Timidity is more of mental
disease than weak trait. We may
become afraid of our fear, but it is
the hardest thing in the world to
eradicate. The total lack of fear
may come only from the faultlessly
brave, and few of this kind of human
beings have ever lived.
The love that is taught through
fear is not hallowed. No religion of
fear is hight cannot be- Only love
can inspire, selfishness never.
When some people think of God
they do so in fear, and it is difficult
to imagine a God who would tolerate
a coward except to pity him.
The apprehension of fear under
conditions is natural, and self-pre-
servation is the first law of nature.
Fear has no relation to proper eau
ton. Caution and prudence are to be
commended. But the inhibited dread
that comes through cowardice is al
ways degrading and no man can
maintain self-respect who is at heart
cowardly. The truly righteous never
fear. Some one has said that we are
heroes if we can overcome our own
fears.

Be A Self Starter.

Don't you want to be in line with
the best?
Then be self-starter.
That's the up-to-date way of get
ting off when you're going some
where.
You don't want to be the kind of
chap who has to have things pounded
into him.
Get the jump on yourself. How
initiative. Don't wait to be told what
to do. Business men always appre-
ciate an employee who uses his head.
Fellow who has to be diagramed
through his business career is a mere
machine. He never cuts any ice, as
the saying is, and he never gets any
where.
The pleasantest drive through life
and through a business career is to
be above any "clucking" from the
boss.
Don't wait to be urged. Be a
willing horse, but have snap. Be re-
liable by having an even gait.
But don't forget to use your self
starter. Take all instructions pleas
antly and you won't have to be urged.
Rember that to shirk wont get you
anywhere. That's when your self
starter is out of whack.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER Z, 1916
No Milk And Water Canspaign.

The warmth of the political cam
paign at the present time was never
equalled by anything in previous
history. The Democrats have the
upper hand owing to the fact that
their party is in power. The Repub-
licans never recognize any other
power but themselves when it comes
to shaping the destinies of the nation.
They claim to know the only way.
That way is through the predatory
interests and through Wall Street.
Fortunately, Wall Street is at the
present time shorn of some of it's
power, because it is no longer possible
for few men to dictate all the poll
cies Of the country. Heretofore, only
Wall Street has known what to pre-
scribe for Uncle Sans maladies, and
generally it has used only the water
cure.
It is making Wall Street madden
than a wet hen to realize that it
cannot put over all it did in former
days to win an election. 1t has more
now than ever and still can pile on
the dollars for campaign purposes,
but the unlimited outpouring Of
former days would be more daring
than wise, hence the great and only
Roosevelt has been hurried into ac-
ton, and he is paving the earth with
both feet and is making Woodrow
Wilson stand from under. The
thunder of Theodore can be heard
from afar. He is beating the tom
tom, and raising the deuce generally.
It looks like a poor show for Wilson,
when one listens to Teddy's mighty
wrath. He smelleth the battle from
afar off, and smoke is emitted from
his nostrils like the war horse of Job.
In the meantime, President Wilson
is getting strong support from very
big men, and the more he talks the
wiser he seems. 1t would not sur
prise some if he did not make bold
and successful bid for the term to
which he aspires. If smart politics
will turn the trick, look out for some
thing to fall, for Wilson is on the war
path little bit himself.
