speaker is liable to pitch his voice too high,
Lo ann By Ml M. Beck,
Former Assistant Sttorney-General of the 3 ited States.
HE signs of the times indicate a growing feeling of social
discontent, which finds its chief expression in the indiserim-
inate abuse of wealth. Apart from the baser passion of
class hatred there is now in progress a searching inquiry
in the great court of public opinion as to the ethical signifi-
cance of money and money-making. ]
The underlying causes of the agitation are complex, but
its net effect will probably be for good. This discontent is
due to a profound dissatisfaction with the code of comraer-
cial morals. Abuses of trust have run riot. They are not, as I believe, due to
the fact that men are essentially less honest than previous generations, but
in part to the intoxication that inevitably marked the most rapid and extra-
ordinary period of commercial expansion that the world has ever known, and
also to the artificial character of our commercial machine.
The complex subdivision of social office have caused a certain diffusion,
and, therefore, weakening of moral responsibility. That artificial creation of
the law—the corporation—with the legal fiction that it is a moral personality, |
has been a Pandora box, from which infinite good and evil has proceeded. A
corporation with many thousand stockholders does an act which benefits
itself while injuring the public, but the sense of individual responsibility of
each stockholder for the wrong done becomes so attenuated as to lose any
appreciable existence, while its officers, who in whole or part are directly
responsible, are too apt to feel that as trustees for the stockholders they must
subordinate their personal views of what is right or wrong to the welafre of
the corporation. |
No error is more common than that American people have an inordiante
love of money-making, unless it be the graver error than modern industrial-
ism has debauched human society and that we are worse than our fathers.
Every adverse comment that the ultra pessimists can make of this genera-
tion can be applied with infinitely greater force to preceding ones,. and. I
do not exclude the epic period of our national life. The evils which exist
now existed then, but on the credit side of the ledger, what immeasurable
intellectual and moral progress distinguish this industrial age!
Is the struggle for wealth greater today than before? Are men the slaves
of business that they once were? On the contrary, men of other generations
worked harder to secure less and the cultivated relation of the modern
financier was wholly unknown to them.
No charge is more false than that we are a thoney-loving people. No peo-
ple of any time or clime ever cared less for money when earned than we.
Prodigality of expenditure rather than a narrow desire to hoard unnecessary
wealth is the distinguishing characteristic of the average American. If he
has a strong purpose and an earnest desire to amass wealth, it is in most
cases because money is the necessary material for further constructive work.
To achieve rather than to acquire is his ambition.
The entire edifice of the commercial world rests upon fair dealing. The
true capital of the banker is ‘confidence. His nominal capital is a mere con-
cession to public opinion. There are unquestionably broken contracts, but
their number is infinitesimal in comparison with the many that are kept with
scrupulous fidelity.

How to Make a Speech
?
By Elmer E. Rogers,
The Well Known Chicago Lawyer.
900000009 O not forget that public speaking is good conversation; don’t
S 3 vell, and, therefore, talk over the heads of your auditors;
® ® do not talk at thew, but to them. When practicable, a good
° $ idea is to scan the faces of your hearers, beginning at the
® €® front on your left, and proceeding from left to right, back
PP 4 and forth, until you have observed the occupant of the last
& “@ seat on your right in the rear of your audience. People are
000000000 ® flattered by the speaker noticing them; besides, it helps to
“hypnotize” your audience.
Gesture is the only universal language; combined with the language of
countenance, it is understood by the entire world, for it is the language of na-
ture. Prepare a few sentences with appropriate gestures, and your audience
will believe you to be a past master in the art of gesticulation. To thrill an
audience you must arrange sentences and accompanying gestures so that both
at the same time shall reach the climax in your eloquence.
On stepping to the front of the platform have a full breath as you greet
your audience; surely never meet it with all your batteries run out. The
most eminent orators and actors stimulate their emotional nature by daily
drill in vocal exercises. A good practice is the repeating of the alphabet and
its various sounds in different tones, pitch and force. Constant practice
clears and strengthens the vocal powers, as observed in newsboys, train call-
ers and auctioneers.
The most difficult of all oratory is the campaign political speech, and he
on whom the politicians agree as a first class ‘“spellbinder” may by prepara-
tion put up a good speech on any topic.
Outdoor speaking is perplexing, as in the attempt to reach all hearers the
which then does not carry so
If convenient speak toward the noise or music.
The less a speaker knows the longer it takes him to say it;
your speeches short. 7
Ppblic speaking is a profession. Animal food promotes eloquence, and
the orator ought to have a good slcep just before his appearance to sneak. No
one except a political candidate is obliged to shake hands and accept hes-
pitality; avoid this physical drain before speaking.
The orator of today must be a student, reader, thinker,
in olden times the orator was a disseminator of know fedze, but

The question of. coal-supply,
.then, as vital to a ship as is that of food-supply to an
army. lly have been made by maritime nations to
solve it by the erection of coaling staticns in different parts
of the world, where their ‘Vessels may stop when their
bunkers need refilling. Great Britain has some thirty or
more such coaling stations; the United States have a half
dozen or so, and want more. Guantanamo, Guam, Qonlaska, are some of ours
—besides, of course, the navy yards and naval ations on the American con-
tinent. But most naval men see that coaling stations do not in themselves
solye the problem. In war they may well be elements of weakness, neces-
sitating defence forces of some size to prevent their canture by. the enemy.
The United: States ‘attached colliers to their fleets during the Spanish war,
and so partially solved the problem-—but only partially.
The very great importance, then, of being able to coal without regard
to the weather—so long, of course, as there is no actual storm—is thus ap-
parent; and all maritime nations have been trying to devise some plan that
will enable their ships to refill their bunkers at sea. As has been said, ap-
paratus for coaling at sea was installed on ten vessels of the Russian second
Pacific squadron before they left the Baltic, and naval officers have been
waiting to learn if it was used, and if so, with what success.
Apparatus of the same system has been adopted by the British navy
after considerable experiment, and is now being installed on the new vessels.
Germany has adopted the system used by Russia and Great Britain, merely
specifying that the apparatus be.“made in Germany.” For the system is an
American invention, the device of Spencer Miller, a New York engineer.

R. G. Dun & Co.s “Weekly Review
of Trade” says: Current trade shows
a distinet gain in comparison with
the same time last year; crop reports
are reassuring, and evidences of con-
tinued activity are noted in almost
every department of industry. A
wholesome growth without the
threatening danger of reckless infla-
tion of prices is a commercial con-
dition greatly to be desired, and
these elements are recorded in the
majority of dispatches. !
Fall trade is now well under way,
especially encouraging results being
achieved in dry goods, millinery,
footwear and all lines of ‘wearing
apparel, while mercantile payments
are unusually prompt for the season.
There is a steady consumption of
groceries and other staple articles of
foed, and in. furniture, crockery and
numerous household utensils the dis-
tribution is..vigorous.

dustries receive large orders, a heavy
