Do you doubt that fully civilized
men will transfer surplus heat
from the Equator to the North
Pole? That will seem a modest
accomplishment some centuries
hence.
1t seems difficult to us. But sup
pOse you had predicted two hun
drsd years ago that the lightning
daahing in the sky, occasionally
killing men, would be harnessed
enc day and made to run wash
ing machine, fan or a carpet
sweeper.
Men will manage and direct the
oarth's heat as easily as they now
direct heat from the furnace.
Coningsby Dawson, writer,
nsurns because women are set
aside, "shelved," at an age when
their brothers and husbands begin
to be interesting. He says
woman is, or ought to be "at the
height of her charm after forty"
Various things work against
women and prevent their having
ardent young admirers, as Hinon
de l'Enclos had at the age OF
seventy. The children come too
close together, in many cases, and
that wears women out.
Then, husbands are dull, and af-
Tar a DAYS work their talk is
frightfully tiresome. No food for
{hs wife's mind. Also, women
IS0va Eyni On the earth for 100000
years as drudges, with a small per
centage kept as toys. They liter
ally have not had chance.
But times and conditions are
changing. Women vote, families
are smaller, you cannot tell a
woman from her granddaughter,
when their backs are turned. And
often, when they face you, one is
about as young as the other, and
the grandmother has, spiritually,
the younger face.
Tom Lee, negro boatnan On the
Mississippi, lived long before the
world heard of him. The steamer
Norman sank and he saved thirty
lives. The "folks" collected money
70 buy him house, much to his
surprise. His performance seemed
to him commonplace. 81 kept GO
ipr and coming" said he, until
I saved everybody l saw in the
river. Then [ went to the sand
bar and built q fire"
The world exists and life is made
possible, thanks to the workers
that "just keep going and coming"
A man writes in his last hour,
"Burn me up, scatter my ashes
around the Statue of Liberty il
New York Harbor. Death has set
me free" .,
How does he KNOW that death
has set him free? Nature, OF
which death is part, has a habit
of using the same material oyer
and over again. The tree OF TINS
generation supplies mould to the
tree that takes its place.
A man burned up today may go
travelling, his spirit to continue
his work and struggling In some
other far off sphere.
Everybody knows what de-
pressed working man said to his
dog: you're lucky. When you're
dead, that's the end of it. But
when I die, they're not through
with me yet; I have to go to hell
then"
However weak this nation may
be, in the face of a spirited article
written by obscure Socialists, II
is strong nation, financially.
U. S. Government bonds went
higher then ever last week.
Those assured by this writer
during the bond selling campaigns
that bonds would go above pal
will please note that Treasury
"four and a quarters" sold last
week at 107.1O.
It takes every man fifty years
to learn how to live. CAT fifty a
man is either a fool or a physi,
cian." But if man at fifty viii
do what he knows he OUGHT tt
do, he may easily live fifty years
longer.
