sponsibility. The Iaboring class has
been driven and ordered so long that
to accept responsibility is like throwing
on savage the work Of ruling a ma
ton. It takes thinking to be able to be
successful in responsible position and
the average man or woman has never
done real thinking because for ages
their thinking has been done for them.
Responsibility, the real art Of thinking
is as excluded from the average mind
as in dumb brute. We have no con-
troll whatever Of that great power which
nature gave us to guide our lives Alright.
thinking, clear constructive thinking,
is Llanos greatest lesson.
But to be able to think clear and
constructively you must have clear,
mind and to have an alert mind you
must have sound physique. To have
sound physique is an art the world
has long neglected. Proper eating. and
exercise is the greatest medicine ever
used on the human body and costs mo-
thing. Every person should be his own
doctor, because no two persons are
physically the same. and hence no doc
tor can justly and intelligently pre-
scribe for any one but himself. The
art of keeping we'll and strong is taught
In Newllano to a greater extent per-
haps than in any other community of
its size.
Mental science is another subject
taught to all willing ears and takes the
place of religion. The only difference
in the two perhaps is that the latter
has accomplished nothing worthy of
note in the past ten or fifteen CEN
turtles and is now being used to keep
the laboring class in ignorance and in
constant fear, in order that the min
ority may control them more easily and
make millions off their toll. while the
latter teaches self-control, mind-power
and service based on the exact teach
ings of Christ. All the orthodox reli-
gions pretend to teach Christianity and
yet not a sing e denomination puts it
into practice. How much is the race
bettered when we go to church on Sum
day and listen to Christ's teachings
and get up Monday morning at four
or five o'clock to beat our neighbor to
market or cheat some poor fellow out
Of few nickles in trade? How much
more educational it is to study for
couple of hours Sunday to learn how
to control our minds, how to live with
our neighbors, how to build our weak
points into strong ones and how to aid
humanity. Then on Monday morning
we can start to work at seven o'clock
with a smile for everyone, a pleasant
word to cheer each and all, and when
we make mistake, instead of losing
our heads and getting mad, just make
the best of it and learn the right way
that we may know better next time
How much better it is to start some
morning by leaving that tobac-
co can at home and then go without
dinner to give nature a chance to catch
up with her work and throw off her
excess luggage in order that she may
rid us of that cold. Or we may learn
how to make bricks, saw lumber, make |
shoes. bake bread, farm or garden,
we can aid humanity by rem
dering variety of service. Such is
our religion. We learn on Sunday how
and put it into practice on Monday,
tuesday, Wednesday, and all the days
Of the week.
Continued next week.

HAVE NOT tanned LIGHTNING
Boast Not lnfrequently Heard Is Not
Borne Out by Facts Concerning
Electrical Control.

When we wish to speak figuratively
of our achievements in electricity we
are accustomed to boast that we have
tanned the lightning" or something
of the kind. But in reality we have
done no such thing. Lightning Is a
well-known natural electrical phenom-
enon: but the electricity that we use
is drawn from another Source-it was
tame to start with. To catch a
lightning discharge and reduce its
voltage so that it may be utilized Is
different matter. 1t may be sug
gested that the result might not be
worth the trouble.
Ever since Franklins famous kite
was sent upon its flight certain OPP
timistic individuals have thought that
this pretty experiment was the key to
untold power and wealth. The tn.
multi caused by severe thunderstorm
has evidently led them to believe that
vast quantities of electricity are
tumbling about in the upper air, and
only some method of tapping the in
visible reservoir. Now, it has been
said that the quantity of electricity
taking part in flash of lightning
could be collected on thimble but
the handling and restraining of this
thimbleful of electricity present prob
lem which few electrical engineers
would care to undertake. 1t is great
achievement to use the water at Nj
agara to drive dynamo; but most of
us would hesitate at the thought of
employing stream of rifle bullets
for the same purpose.-Kansas City

MistraI.

Mistral-last of the verltable Troub-
adours-was truly gifted in that he
was an erudite philologist who pos
sessed a rare creative sense of poetic
form. His name had become greater
than any direct appeal of the output
of his pen; for Only to the learned
few does the bent of his labors mean
anything. 1t was to the credit of this
not ungrateful or ungenerous age that
he reaped all the rewards of fame
from a public which understood prac-
tically nothing of his work. While he
humbly pushed away scholastic hon.
ors from himself, they only crowded
the more thickly about his brow. The
very nature of his undertaking dis
