Dean David of the Harvard business
school. twill receive salary of about
$500 at first. This, however, should
not discourage him." Great heavens :!
Time was, and not so many years ago,
when boy pewly out Of college would
have been envied by all his class
mates If he landed an $500 salary In
the first year, says the Lowell Courier
Citizen. He was more likely to start
In somewhere at about Sl5 a week.
The present-day youth, according To
Mr.. David, will within few
years, if he is at all capable, be re-
ceiving $4,000 to $4,000" How
many $4,000 salaries do you know Of
In this typical American city that are
open to young fellows few years

The talent Of the poet is very I'M
like that Of the general. The gift
Of an Edison Is unlike that Of a
Paderewski. But II you take the rec
ords Of those who have achieved fame,
you will find one characteristic alike
In each, along with the innumerable
differences. Practically every great
man is great worker. Whatever
other qualities you may have to en-
title you to hold an honored place
they will not amount to much unless
you possess the faculty for hard work.
And IL you are great worker, you are
bound to do something creditable, even
II you fall short Of greatness, Never
despair as long as you can work and
work hard.

LESSON OF TIE LElPslc CASES.

LESSON OF THE LEiPSic CASES.
The acquittal OF General Stenger
the first high German officer tn he
placed on trial for war crimes. prob
ably will convince the allies that they
went to the wrong court for justice.
Just why ii should have been shpck
to the French legal mission which at
tended the trial AT I.elpsic Is not plain.
The accused was tried In his own
country, by his own cOIintrynen. His
accusers were French. His crimes
were against Frenchmen. What could
the allies have expectedY Frightful-
ness was the first article Of war taught
to Germans. 10 inspire fear was
the duty Of every German officer, and
the history of the war illustrated how
effective that teaching had been. The
doctrine is now upheld by the Leip
sic court. says tile Kansas city star
The lesson to the allies, If they still
needed it, Is that Germany, or at any
rate. the governing class of which the
Leipslc court Is representative, Is still
iniltariStic. That class knows no
such thing as war crimes. II was its
creed, aud evidently still Is, that no
act committed by German by which
a non German suffers is or can be .
crime.

'Not in long time have enjoyed such good health or felt so well gen. orally as I do since taking Tanlac," said w. Fl. Johnson, 319 East 43rd St., Portland, Ore, who holds a re- sponsible position with the Northwest Transfer Company.
 About a year ago I began suffer ing from lack of appetite and stomach trouble and since that time-that is, until Tanlac set me right-I have felt so poorly that I could hardly do my work. My food seemed to do me little good, if any, as my digestion was bad, and I lost both weight and strength continually.
 After every meal there was dull. nagging pain in the pit of my stomach that kept me feeling miserable for hours.
 "The gas from my sour, undigested food would bloat me up terribly and my nerves were so upset that 1 would lie awake half the night unable to sleep. I was constantly having blind- ing dizzy spells and could not bend over and straighten up quickly but what everything seemed as dark as night to me.
 'T was telling friend one day how oad felt and he advised me to try Tanlac and I just want to say he couldn't have done me a greater kind ness.
 "T have picked up all of fifteen pounds in weight, my appetite is fine, and although am eating just any thing I want my stomach never gives me a particle of trouble. My sleep is sound and restful and my strength and energy have been so renewed that my work is no longer a burden to me-"
 Tanlac is sold by leading druggists everywhere.-Adv.

st. Patrlck,s wanderinna.

Readers who are interested in the names of places will find it a fasci- mating study to trace the wanderings of the saint in Great Britain and Ire land.
 It is supposed that he landed on the latter island at Innispatrfck and travelled on errands of goodness and mercy to Dublin, where the cathedral bears his name, to East Meath. where he founded the abbey of Domnach Padraig; to Mayo, where the moun- tain of Croagh Patrick was called af- ter him, and to many other widely scattered places.
 The names of Patterdaie in the Lake district, Kirkpatrick in the county of Durham, Llanbadrig in the Isle of Anglesea. Craig Phadrig near Inverness, and Fitzpatrick, supposed to be his birthplace in Scotland, survive after all these centuries as proof of the influence of the man who first proclaimed the Gospel to the ancient people of Ireland.

ARE OF MILESIAN DESCENT
Old Irish Families Founded by Con- quering Race About 17oo B. C.,
 According to Tradition.

Old Irish families trace their de- scent to the MiIesians. who conquered the country, according to Bardic tra- dition, about 17OO B. c. The Milesians originated in Scythia, but migrated to Egypt. and thence to Spain. where they became rulers of the land. They are named after Miled. the head of the clan that went to Ireland.
 The Milesians had been preceded by three other races, the ParthalOnians, who. according to tradition. came from Greece about three centuries after the deluge. They were all wiped out by the plague. Following them came the Firbolgs, who had scarcely taken pos session of the land before the Tuatha De Danaan (tribes of the God Dann) arrived. also from Greece. and brought

HAILED AS GIFT TO HUMANITY
High Personality as We'll as the Deeds of St. Patrick Have Endeared
 Him to All.

A character great in fiction Is often more vivid and survives longer than the name and fame of a real person undeniably great.
 He must be a mighty man who in a crowded perspective is visible at the end of a thousand years. Yet such a man was Succoth, apostle to Ireland. Worthily hailed as St. Patrick. be- cause of his holiness, he deservedly wears the golden circlet because of his patrician qualities in that Roman cit izenship which he. like St. Paul, was proud to share. Such a charac- ter ever inspires his fellows to join the choir invisible in urging man to vaster issues.
 The legends, which. like flower-bear- lng vines, twine themselves around the fame of this august personality. are but natural outgrowths of affec- tiOn. The cOldest critic who looks askance at alleged marvels, bows low before Patrick's authentic writings They see therein a scholar, a gentle man, and self-effacing missionary, pastor and bishop.
 III Idct, crlucal reSedrcneS nave rather acted like a blast of a blow pipe on the silver ore when laid on the cupeI. Absorbed and forgotten is the dross. while the pure metal orbs into brilliancy. Out of the fires of searching inquiry the character of St. Patrick rises to a height that com- pels, nay, wins honest men of every creed and cult to gratitude to the h. finite for this His gift to humanity.

SEAT OF WORLDS LEARNING
From Irish Universities Went Forth Missionaries to England and
 to All Europe.

Ireland was the last survivor of civilization in the western world. The barbarian invasion which over whelmed Europe and extinguished the torch of learning stopped at the Irish sea and left Ireland untouched; and upon it fell the burden of extending civilization and Christianity eastward. The Roman missionaries got little fur ther west than Kent; the Irish sent missionaries to England. taught the barbarians to write. gave them the letters they used until the Norman conquest, founded schools. and in the middle of the Seventh century there was not a bishop in England who was not of Irish birth, consecratiOn. or education. From the Irish uRiversi- ties there poured forth missionaries to the continent, and from Ireland civilization and learning spread to Germany and Switzerland; Charle- magne, seeking to civilize his people,

POPULATION IS DECREASING.
Recent AII-Russian Census Shows Loss
 In Population.

The recent all-Russian census under Bolshevist rule, only partially com pleted, shows that the population of Russia has decreased considerably since the beginning of the revolution, according to an article in the Kras- naia Gazette (Red Gazette). Although the census took place on August 18th, no complete returns are available yet.
 "The census" continues the article, "has been taken nearly all over the country, with the exception of the northern tundra, the nomadic popula- ton of the Kirghizes, Kalmucks and Turkomans, and also the localities re- gently freed from the white armies. Up to the present the central statiSti- cal department has received returns from 32O counties, S49 cities and fifty eight provinces.
 From twenty-two provinces inclu6 ing the city of Moscow, complete re turns have already been received. On the whole returns are still outstand- ing from 45 per cent of rural districts and 25 per cent of the cities. Never theless, the data already on hand af- ford a wealth of material for observ- ing the changes in the distribution of the population of soviet Russia.
 First and foremost, the census es- tablishes the indubitable fact that the population of Russia has decreased since the beginning of the revolution. For twenty provinces on which data are obtainable for both periods the census of 1917 gave a total population of 30,OOO,0OO. The census of August 2sth, 1920, however, enumerated only 27,0O0,0O0 inhabitants, loss of 10 per cent And this, notwithstanding the fact that after the conclusion of peace following the world war millions of soldiers and war prisoners returned to their homes. The cause of this Is that the mortality rate has grown considerably, while the birth rate has decreased during the years of war and revolution.
 "A particularly great decrease has been noted during the revolution among the city population. In the aforementioned twenty provinces the number of city inhabitants dropped from 100000 in 1917 to 3,SOO.OOO at present, the decrease thus amounting to 3.1O0,Oo0 persons, or 39.2 per cent.

 MT. Harding said he desired to pre- sent his message in person and was escorted into the chamber, the doors to which previously had been closed. The President was escorted across the familiar room where he served six years before his call to the higher of flee and to a place on the rostrum be side MT. Coolidge
 Facing his former colleagues, the President spoke for perhaps five min utes in happy, cordial vein and then read the nominations from card which he held in his hand. He asked for early action in order, he said, that there might be no hiatus in the gov ernment's affairs.

But there is nothing to see, only the smooth shining surface of the waters and tbe beauty and the loveliness of the sur- rounding hills.
 But you feel here, as you do fin nearly all of Ireland, that these legends and tales must be true, for there is something even in the very air that seems to breathe of romance. and of deeds of herOism and courage in the past.
