Tli era ara plenty of people, ia all of ur large cities, who do not allow themselves enough to eat, and practlca all torts of pinching economy at home (or the Eaka of kaeping up appearances In society. What terrible inconvenience, hard chip and suffering we endure on ac count of other people's eyes and opin ions! What slaves, what fools we make ef ourselves because ef what other people think! How we scheme and contrive to make them think wo are other than we really are. It Is other people's eyes that are expensive. It Is other people's eyes that make us unhappy ami discontent ed with our lot, that make as strain, and struggle, and slave, In order to keep up false appearances. The suit, the hat must be discarded, not because they are badly worn, but because others will think It strange that we do not change them. The effect of all this false living, this constant practice of deception In appearances. In our manner ot living, our dress, is undermiulng the Ameri can character, ruining our genuine ness, making us superficial, unreal false. No man can reilly respect himself when he is conscious that he Is sailing tinder false colors. If you are wearing clothes and liv ing In luxury which you cannot afford, these things label you all over with falsehood, and are perpetual witnesses against you. There Is only one pos sible result upon the character of false hood, whether acted or spoken, and that Is perpetual deterioration. It does not matter whether you wear lies, tell lies, or act lies, the effect upon your character is the same. Orison Swett Marden In Success Mag. azine. CHILDREN SHOWED XT. Effect ot Their Warm Drimk. la tk Morning, "A year ago I was a wreck from eoffee drinking and was on the point ot giving up my position in the school room because of nervousness. "I was telling a friend about It and 6he said, 'We drink nothing at meal time but Postum, and It is such a comfort to have something we can enjoy drinking with the children.' "I was astonished that she would allow the children to drink any kind of coffee, but she said Postum was the moBt healthful drink in the world for children as well as for older ones, and that the condition ot both the chil dren and adulu showed that to be a fact. "My first trial was a failure. The cook boiled It four or five minutes and It tasttnl so flat that 1 was In despair but determined to give it one .more trial. This time we followed the di rections and boiled it fifteen minutes after the boiling be;;an. It was a de cided success and I was completely won by its rich, delicious flavor. In a short time I noticed a decided im provement In my condition and kept growing better ami better month after month, until now I am perfectly healthy, and do my work In the school room with ease and pleasure. I would not return to the nerve-destroying regular coffeo for any money." Read the famous little "Health Clas sic," "The Uond to Wellvllle," in pkgs. "There's a Reason." liver read the above letter?

I whose claim to fame is more in the beauty jf I of Its Immediate and surrounding natural csnery man in its commercial or indus trial Importance, it will now doubtleoo succeed In holding for a time the Interest of the rest of the country, because of It new and unique charter, the features of which have al ready been made public. The terms of this Instrument seem to give the electors the largest possible oppor tunity for the exercise of a choice of Municipal offi cials. If the first election Is not emphatlo enough they can repeat It until there Is no longer room for douot of the popular preference. Thoush this charter is different from any other char ter previously formulated, It contains about all the rad ical provisions of previous Instruments. It has bor rowed the commission Idea from Galveston and Dos Moines, and has grafted upon It the Initiative and refer endum which have developed so extensively In the Far West, with the recall from Los Angeles, and a few original touches of the elty's own. Franchises are to be made profitable. No chances are taken on net profits, but the tax la to bo laid upon gross receipts and 3 per cent Is by no means a trifling exaction. The people seem to have the long end of the lever, and If they do not rule righteously It will be their own fault Boston Transcript. TOTS DUTY OF THE LAITY.

If he dies and leaves dependent wife or children, they, too, are cared for. The one who de mm vote his life to teaching In collage or uulveralty finds some of the anxletiea lessened because of the knowledge of a great fund for retiring allowances. The public school teacher, the policeman, the fireman in the large city, and sometimes ether publlo servants are provided for by pension systems. Even some corporations have devised plans for aiding these who have given long service to their interests. No work for humanity is counted more valuable than that douo by ministers of the gospel. In the case of the majority the opportunity for service appeals with stronger power tl an the salary paid. All the pioneer work Is done by earnest men who are poorly recompensed for their toll, ao far as money goes. The missionary la the newer settlements, the pastor of the country church, the minister In the small town In fact, the overwhelming majority of preachers follow out their careers with Inadequate tmlp.rles, without opportunity to save for the inovitable day of retirement, and with no assurance of support in old age except that which comes from faith. The general recognition ot the worth of the minister's service to mankind and the cash payments for that serv ice stand In strange opposition to each other. In no other walk of life is the contrast so sharp. It Is this condition of things which rrmi,ed an article in a re cent number of the Northwestern Christian Advocate proposing that the laity of all Chnatian churches unite in the creation of a larpe foundation for retiring al r ow " WOES OF THE C0TTNTEY." j An Atchison County farmer, says a writer in the Atchison Daily Globe, was "dragging his mile ot road," and at tho corner met a neighbor, who had a had place of road In front of his farm. "Bad roads are the least of my troubles," said tho second man, "and," he continued, "did you ever stop to think that this Is a one-man country?" The listener replied that he had been bnsy dragging roads lately, and had not no4Jcd It. "Well," continued he who was not worried about bad roads, "It Is a fact, and we are but little better off than Russia. I can get along for tha rest of my life, but I am alarmed for my children. This one-man country and the trusts are sapping at our very vi tals." It looks like rain," said the farmer on the road drag, "and I wtint to get this road finished, but I'll take time to give you a few ot my Ideas of things. 'In the first place, good roads are of more Importance to me than this one- man-country talk you are putting up. I should think a lot more ot you If you would get out your drag and fix up that road along your place. I believe that bad road Is half responsible for your Bour disposition. I know that hen I ride over my good road I feel all right, but the minute I strike that rotten piece of road of yours I begin to feel Just the way you talk. "I have been an American and a Kansan for fifty years, and I know there Is nothing wrong with the coun try. There may be a few bad spots In It, just as there aro bad spots In your farm, and In your own disposi tion, hut those few bad spots are not the whole country, by a long shot. "You Bay you are alarmed for the future. I should be, too, If 1 tallied and thought as you do. "If you will rend your Illblu oftenor and subscribe for a few of the best papers, you will see things differently. "If you dreg that road of yours all of your neighbors will think a lot more of you, and even your own nous will take a more wliolohome Interest In farm life. Hut as It Is a mile to the other end of the road nnd I have two wore rounds to make, I must be get ting along before that rain rat'-herf nie." Farmer niwnber one moved i ff. Il looked buck and raw lil-t nel-'liimr r;;!! standing, looking lntcn;l ;it the ground. There was no I ml i -n t ion tli.it his talk had any effect.

Vsiatly ho has some one dependent upon him for support, and Instead of maintaining the struggle snd doing Ills duty to the last he cravenly gives up the fight and deserts. Human life is a warfare against adversity. There are those who triumph; there are those who go down in the melee with their feet toward the foe, fighting the good fight with their last breath; there are sulkers and deserters and cowards. The suicide Is a deserter and a coward and Is worthy of no honor. Of courts, these who become Insane and then com mit this crime sre morally Irresponsible and cannot be condemned. Under the harsh laws of ancient England the punishment for this crime, which could be Inflicted In no other way, was visited upon the dead body of the mnn who took his own life as an object lesson to teach people the enormity of the offense. Baltimore Sun. old age begins to T trees have been set out on the Canadian prairies by the ranchers. The ranchers do the work, and the trees are furnished by the government nursery at Indian Head. About 2,000,000 trees are going Into the ground each year. The aspect of many districts Is rapidly changing for the better under the arrangement between govern ment and planters, and, of cenrse. the comfort of tho ranchers Is Increased by the protection against wind. Farmers on this side of the line have long been doing what the Canadian ranchers are doing. The wind break Is an established Institution in both countries. But this planting of trees does not affoct the main question, of course the waving and replanting of tie forests. Tree-planting on the prairies can be left to the farmers, who appreciate its value. The preservation of the forests depends upon the public. Buffalo Impress. is a man of the people. When he donned the tiara he declared that he Intended to be "the poor man's pope." The inaccessibility that was a feature of those who reigned before him was, as far as possible, to be relaxed, while much of the severity and the strict and complicated forms of etiquette ob servud by the holy see since the peri od of the renaissance was to be main tained no longer. "Formerly," says the writer, who with his wife was granted an "audi enza privata," the etiquette was that who had the honor of being admit ted to an audience of the Pope should make three v genuflexions as he enter ed; the first on the threshold, the sec ond a little farther, the third at the feet of the pope, whose slipper, more over, he was obliged to kiss. Leo XIII. made only the rarest exceptions to this rule; Plus X has abolished It. He does not wish you to talk to him on your knees, and, while you still make a slight genuflexion on entering and leaving, be hastens to raise you up; and his friendly simplicity I was almost saying his cordiality at once puts you at your ease." As an example of the pope's unas suming nature. It is related that when summoned from his home In Venice to the conclave at Rome, he so little doubted that he would return that he actually took a return ticket on the railway. Ho long kept thla ticket we are told. "Wealthy collectors strove by every means In their power to be come Its purchaser; he Invariably re fused them. Last year the king of Greece, in the course of a visit which he paid to the pope, expressed a keen desire to poRsess this little piece ot cardboard, which has become for all time historical, and the pope gave It to him." There Is one humble relic with which the pope could never be con strained to part This was his watch a quite ordinary and cheap affair. "It marked the minutes of my moth er's deuth struggles," he says, "and the hour of my definite separation from the outer world, from space and liberty. It has marked all the sad, all the joyous, all the solemn moments of i:y life. What Jewel could bo morn precious to toe?" EOON WIRELESS TELEPHONE.

'A CCORDINO to our New York dispatches, a subcommittee of the National Committee for the Relief of the Unemployed was ap pointed to arrasge for the decoration of the graves of these who committed suicide because of the failure to obtain employ ment. The man who takes his life be PLAIT TUTG TREES. HE need of aavlng the forests has been discussed much of late. While this dis cussion has been golnj on. and before it was beain, millions of trees were being set in the ground. This fact is called to mind by the report of the Domtnlon Su perintendent of Forestry that 13,000,000 these will bo found In all vehicles and even on street corners, as letter boxes now are. All he will then have to do will be to connect his receiver with the transmitter, drop a coin in tho slot, and communication will be set up Im mediately. A strong argument against the wire less telegraph was that outsiders might easily pick up the messages transmitted. This wus true so long as all instruments were tuned to a single key. But a certain recent in vention applied to the telephone has changed all that. Central will be able to change the tune for different sub scribers as often as ihere are num bers In the telephone directory. It is done exactly as a violinist tunes his Instrument by tightening or loosen ing a dsvlce which In Infinitesimal de gree increases or decreases the vibra tion as the impulses are sent forth. It may all sound visionary enough, but not so far-fetched as did tho prog, nostlcatlons concerning the wire tel ephone that were made some thirty years ago. Even tho wireless tele phone advocates do not claim that all these promises will come to pass in a day. They contend, however, thai within twenty years the wireless tele phone will have entirely superseded the present systems, and for the very good reason that it will be cheaper to Install, maintain and operate. And they claim that It will do things thai the wire telephone cannot do thlngl that will be as necoBsary In the futuri as ordinary telephoning Is today. Thar Draw Crowd la New Yos-lc.

A Gentleman of The Old School Sir Deans Cosway stopped out of tho French window on to the hotel verau dah, looked to the left and to tho right; then, espying a red parasol, ad vanced on rather tottery legs toward it His age was doubtful, but he could hardly have been less than CO, despite his well preserved figure, his mobile, expressive countenance, and keen, bright eyes. "You have spoken to her?" aBked Mrs. Stephany. He nodded. "Yes." "What did she say?" "Nothing." "Nothing! Mrs. Stephany s eye brows climbed her forehead. "What did she do, then," she inquired with a sigh. "Laughed," answered Sir Deans ruefully. "I had looked for a little tender regret, at least, and she laughed." "She Is very young," murmured Mrs. Stephany consolingly. Meanwhile, In a distant part of the hotel gardens, KHa Stephany was HOW CAN I SEND HIM AW AT? talking with a tall, erect young man, named Richard Havers. That they were perlloutdy near tho verge of a Quarrel was plain from the ugly scowl on the young man's face and from the girl's look of flushed expostulation. "How can I help it?" she tvan say- nig. "It seems to me," he said morosely, you don't try to help It But, of course, he's a baronet and rich and all that. And I" "You are a most disagreeable boy," she pouted. "And unreasonable, too," she added. 'I'm not disagreeable," be protest ed, "or unreasonable. I'm Just sick, that's all. Why, he wears stays! lis Is old enough to be your grandfather. He ought to be thinking of the grave, not marriage. Fatuous dotard I" "He Is not really old at all," said Ella. "And Cosway Park is a para dise, simply." "He being tho old serpent in It," muttered Dick. Ho faced her, frown lng darkly, "flut I will not stand It, Ella. I will go straight to your moth er she at least likes me and tell her Just how I feel about you. She was young herself once. She " "I shouldu't begin by Baying that to her," said Ella. "Don't be cross, Dick. Haven't I refused him?" "But you don't send him away!" "How can I send him away? The hotel Is open to him as well as to us. And," she went on, with a sudden ol stlnate contraction of the lips, "I don't see why I should send him away, even if I could. Ho nniUHcx me. lie talks most wittily. And he pays rne the most delightful compliments." That night she flirted shamelessly with Sir Deans. There was an open air promenade concert held among the hills, fido f(.t above the gleaming lake In the wooded valley far below. The air was hot and still. The moon hung In the sky like a lamp of pearl. There were a fe torn scarves of silver-edged cloud in tho nocturnal blue, wound mi -Illy about the higher peaks. The printed softness of the air, throbbing with poignant strains of music, seemed to wenvo a npell of enchantment over the senses. Kllu's bosom yearned for Dick, whom she passed and repassed ncain and again In the chattering crowd; but she clung to Sir Dean's arm and only bestowed tho most perfunctory of chilly nods upon her black-browed young lover, whilst to the elderly bar net she was all sweet, maldeuly tow ardltness. Presently thoy Kit down and Dick seized on thla opportunity to come up and accost them. "Good evening, Mrs. Stephany," he said In a strained, husky voice, to the gpyrehsnslve mother. Ella be Ignored pointedly. "Sir Deans, may I haw word with you?" "Is It ah very important, Mr. Ha vers?" he inquired. "Very," said Dick. The old gentleman lifted appealing eyes. "The matter could not, I sap- pose ah wait?" ho suggested. "Not an instant," was the Inflexible reply. In that case," quavered Sir Deans, "If the ladles will pardon my defec tion " Then tho two men strolled away. "No doubt," began Dick tempestu ously, "you think me an awful young ass. Sir Deans." 'I ah not yet," was the guarded reply. You're an old man. I am a young one," Dick went on heedlessly. Ah very young, I should say," said Sir Deans, smiling at him. Dick gulped down something that seemed to rise In his throat "In plain English, I'm in love with Miss Stephany," he announced gruffly. Walt a minute. And try not to laugh, please.
