It Is a pot theory of various foreign journal that tlio war for Cuban free dom is a war of pelf and conquest on the part of this country; yet tho fact Is that the rccrultlnn of troops at $13 a month has practically killed tho rush of young men to the Klondike, where they could earn $13 a day and run no yellow fever chances. There's no pold for tho sol diers In this enmpuljrn, but it Is brimful of glory. -Philadelphia Wrnrd. Much bus been said about waiting till the inspiration comes before doing any thing. This is a dangerous notion. Possibly some genius has produced a great poem or story or painting under tho influence of a strange spell. Hut thousands who have waited for the spell arc waiting still, or have died waiting, never having accomplished anything. It is a spell of laziness that troubles them. There is no short cut to great achievements. It Is work, hard work, steady work, that conquers. The man who refuses to allow disincli nation to stop him will finish his courso with joy. Tho biggest guns In the United States navy are 411 feet long, big enough for a man to crawl Into; four feet in diam eter at their largest part, and weigh 135,500 pounds, or thereabouts. The powder used Is brown. A charge for the biggest guns weighs 500 pounds, and is hoisted to the breech by a du rick, the powder being sewed up in burlap bags. It costs $500 every time one of the big guns on board a ship is Bred. A big battle ship has on board an electric plant capable of lighting a town of 5,000 inhabitants.

Deacon George Myors was seen on our streets last Sunday. Pei-sons riding through our town on bicycles should ring their bolls, for children are sometimes playing on the streets nnd might get run over if the bulls don't ring. A person in our town walked up to scarecrow last Friday nnd said, "Hello! John," but John didn't "hello," and the gentleman walked up a little closer and said, "Is this the road to Paradise?"

Sheesly were n Sykcs lust Sunday evening. The Sunday Schnnl 2'imtn in an cdr rial on "The Uplifting Power of e kood Opinion" says: "It Is better to bo- lieve that a man may be bettor than he fseems, than to suspect mm oi Doing worse than he is. What he really is we can never fully know; what he seemB to be is not, in this Ufa, what he fully is. At best we do not see more , than a fraction of any man. Bis ideals, his best yearnings are In a large part Invisible to the world; his resistance of temptations is carried on in strict pri vacy, and his noblest triumphs forever hold their own secret. And yet we play a large part In this submerged . ' ootid not of our neighbor. His Godward aspirations und resistance power against evil are both strengthened by our be lieving him to be bettor than we see him; hU liability to fall Is Increased by - our suspicion that ho Is weaker or worse than he really Is. Suspecting a man helps to muke him worthy of sun- . "irtolon; trusting him begets in him trustworthiness; rospectlng him raise him toward truo respectability." Men and women who nave never known what it is to have an abundance of the good things of this life, who have always been engaged In a hand to hand struggle with poverty, sometimes dream waking dreams in which they Imagine that success has come to thorn at last. This always takes the form of wealth an Inexhaustible bank account and power to command all life's luxur ies. But It is open to question whether there Is any reul success in the accumu lation of material things. In a recent issue tUe New York Times reooiiuta the fCitfstory ot a resident of that city who accumulated several millions during his lifetime, but who lived in squalor and misery and died surrounded by quarrel ing relatives who had not a particle of affeotlon for him and who were anxious that he might leave the world In order that they might come into possession of his millions. Such a live oould scarcely be called a success. A man may not have ary surplus oatib; he may . find it dlfiioult to make both ends meet, but if - he have a roof over his head, a true wife and loving children of whom he feels that he may be proud, and if his conscience U void of offense toward God or can, he it what we would call a sue c - ul man.' A 1 toon Tribune. It is just as important to look after tho morals of a town as it 1b to look after commercial Interests. Had Punx sutawney no churches, no schools, no society of any kind where the highest standard of morality is taught, there would be no demand for houses, tho price of properties would depreciate and business men would soon seek a town where it would be safe for an invest ment. Tho highest stnndard of moral ity that a town can attain makes it that much more a desirable place to live in and do business in. Tho person who Is ever on the sido of high morals, public spirited, alwnys foHtnringand encourag ing all measures and movoments looking to tho advancement of his town and tho state of his people, is a public benefactor even if ho cannot build public libraries, endow asylums and institut ions of learn ing.
