The CARNERINC

To every man there will come his
daily bread in answer to his daily
prayer, though it come from the mill
ing of wheat or be the salmon caught
at the falls of the Spokane, without
let or hindrance from any power of
earth. If there Is food in plenty In
one region, as by the fall of an ava
lanche down a mountain, it Will GER
tainly seek consumption in another
region. And this the American boy
and girl owe to the good Providence
and to the brave men who made this
country one and have kept it one.
1t is too much the blindness Of our
time to speak as If such simple bust
ness as daily food came to us as
matter of course. There is, indeed,
careless habit in which Americans
often speak.
Fourth of July orators and street
corner braggarts alike talk of the nat
ural products of this country almost
In the tone of the emigrants who ex
pect to pick up a doubloon upon the
sidewalk. One Is tempted to ask such
braggarts why the country did not
produce such wealth 100 years or 200
years ago.
Why was Dakota then a desert!
WHY were the hills Of Alabama only
hiding place for few thousand
Creek Indians? Why did they not
forge the iron under their feet? Why
did not the Iroquois in western New
York pick from their trees the peaches
and the pears such as have been
growing there this autumn?
The answer is this: All the wealth
of America comes to her from the
work of her men and women. The
victory which yields it is their vic
tory. 1t is the victory of spirit con-
quering matter II comes In the daily
miracle of daily life. where children
of God, led by God, taught by God,
alive in his life and fellow workmen
with him, carry out his designs and
subdue the earth.
1t is neither sensible nor grateful te
speak of teeming granaries, of in
creasing trade of new mines, of oil,
of iron or of gas as if these things
were wealth in themselves
They are only wealth when man
strikes the rock and its waters flow.
And this man must be not the savage
man who cares only for his own per-
sonal appetite 1t must be man, the
child of God, seeking a future better
than today. determined to bring in a
nobler age than that which he lives
in.-Edward Everett Hale.

If it were not for the vogue for en-
broidery the story of many one-piece
frocks would be as simple as nursery
rhyme-long, almost unbroken lines
make them graceful, but this lack
of drapery invites decoration; which is
one way of saying that there are many
lovely embroidered dresses among
recent offerings. But, however many,
none will have more to commend it
than the handsome model shown here,
Notice 1t has the long waistline, far
ing sleeve and broad silk sash which
are delightful contributions of the new
