I RETAIN CONTROL OF SELF
Without That It Is Unreasonable to
fr , Think One Has the Ability to
Control Others.
The other day u inuii who makes his
lllujj by fighting was struck by mi
undersized man, nnI Instead of return
ing the blow livwnlketl uwuy from his
diminutive assailant.
This man exhibited much more self
control than tlio majority of people.
Men who class themselves as being
on a higher plane than this lighting
imjui would liave mixed immediately
ftWli the hot-headed individual.
What would you have done?
The chances are that you would have
rushed at the fellow with ull your
might ; you would have permitted your
savage instincts to rule you.
This proves that you have not as
much power as you Miould have over
your Impulses.
You luay boss other people, but you
re not boss of yourself.
Maybe jou wonder why others are
forging ahead or you as leaders of
men.
It Is because they have a check rein
on themselves. They have schooled
themselves that they may be able to
gtdde others. Self-control Is the at
tribute of a leader. Chicago Ameri

A Columbus woman was going from

"I wlh I was wealthy enough to own

knew me and would offer to take me

Then she looked up as the car went
past her. It was an automobile hearse.

STKCET SCENE
CIUDAD JUAHEZ, the scene of
the recent Important events In
connection, with the trouble
with Mexico, Is situated on tho
right bank of the Klo Grande, direct
ly opposite El I'aso, Tex., and 1,223
miles north of Mexico City. Tho
very name of the city of Juarez sug
gests noteworthy events In tho history
of the southern republic, and the con
ferences which have been held there
recently by the representatives of tho
military forces of both tho American
and Mexican governments add another
Interesting chapter to the community's
annals, says the National Geographic
society bulletin.
For more than 200 years Juarez was
known as El Paso del Norte (the pass
of the North), and It was not until
8S. that the city was renamed In hon
or of one of Mexico's greatest states
men and patriots, lienlto Juarez, who
established his capital here during the
troublous times when Nnpoleon III of
France was abetting the Ill-fated Max
imilian in his effort to found an em
pire in the western hemisphere.
Juarez, a full-blooded Zapotcc Indi
an, born In an obscure lllage near
Oaxaca, succeeded to the presidency
of Mexico when Comonfort, weary of
the Internal strife, "quit the Job" and
went to the United States, leaving af
fairs In the hands of his chief Justice.
Immediately Juarez was embroiled in
civil wnr by the assumption of the ex
ecutive ofllce by Zuloagu. It was
while trying to displace his rival that
the Indian patriot endeavored to bor
row money from the United States
and, as a part of the bargain, he
agreed to a treaty the terms of which
brought forth a storm of protest from
England and France. By this treaty,
which was never ratified, the United
States was to have u perpetuul and un
restricted passage across both the
Isthmus of Tehuantepec and the north
ern .states of Mexico, and the right to
employ American troops to enforce
these rights as well as to protect
American citizens against levies and
loans.
Start of Maximilian's Attempt.
A short time Inter Juarez precipi
tated an international crisis by Ids de
cision to suspend for two years the
nayment of Interest on the national
debt. England, Spain and France sent
fleets to Vera Cruz to force payment,
but England und Spain soon withdrew,
while France, her soldiers once on
Mcxlcun soli, decided to press her
claims, and gradually Napoleon's
scheme for a western empire began to
assume definite form. Ills schema
eventuated In the abortive attempt to
establish Archduke Maximilian of Aus
tria on the throne of the Montezumus.
It has during the famous defense of
the city of I'uehla against the Invad
ing French army that a young Mexi
can soldier, who was to become the
most conspicuous figure In the history
of modem Mexico, distinguished him
self by his bravery and his exception
al powers of leadership. This young
hero was Porflrio Diaz, now known to
fame as "tlio strong man of Mexico."
It was In the center of the interna
tional' bridge which connects Juarez
und El I'aso that President Taft and
President Diaz (he who had been
lunrez'.s military right hand) met in
11)10 upon the occasion of the cen
tenary celebration of Mexican Inde
pendence. The traveler who passes through El
I'aso on his way to Juarez may choose
liny of four times by which to set his
watch Central, Mountain, Pacific and
Mexican. Mountain time Is an hour
slower than Central, while Pacific Is
mi hour slower and Mexican Is 21
minutes faster than Mountain.
Famed for Its Bull Fights.
On account of Its hull fights and cock
fights, Juarez has long been a city of
feast-day pilgrimage for Americans In
search of a new sensation. The Span
lards, who became addicted to the bull
fight habit la the twelfth century, dur
ing the occupation of the Iberian pen
insula by the Moors, Introduced this
Hport Into Mexico slrorlly after their
overthrow of the Aztecs. The fights
In Juarez are not so elaborately staged
as those In Mexico City, for native
hulls are used customarily, and these
hae not the ferocity of the animals

city In Texas, El Paso, which had only
730 people In 18S0 but which had
grown to more than 39,000 In 1910.
Nuevo Laredo Is Important.
Another center of Mexican popuhe
tlon along the frontier Is Nuevo
Laredo, the border city of Tnmaullpas.
It Is one of the most important gate
ways to tho southern republic, not on
account of Its population, for El Paso
and Juarez constitute a hyphenated
city more than twice hs large as
Laredo (American) and Nuevo Laredo
(Mexican), but because the latter Is
the northern terminus of the shortest
railway route to Mexico City, the dis
tance being only about 800 miles, com
pared with 1,200 miles by way of
Juarez and 1,000 miles through Cludnd
Porflrio Diaz (Eagle Pass).
With 8,000 people, Nuevo Laredo Is
a little more than half as large as the
American town at the other end of the
000-foot International bridge which
spans the Itlo Grande at this point.
The two towns were one up to the
time of the secession of Texas, the set
tlement on the left bank of the river
being captured by Texas rangers In
1840 and occupied by United States
troops under General Lamar a jear
later.
BLOCKADE IS ALWAYS DEFIED
Brave Sailors Have Ever Been Found
Capable of Eluding Any Cordon
of War Vessels.
Blockading and blockade running is
not n young war measure by any
menus, a writer in Munsey's says. One
of the earliest authentic Instances of
the practice dates back two centuries
before the Christian era. Marcus
Claudius Marcellus, commanding a
powerful Itoman army and an eillclent
fleet, laid siege to Syracuse, a rich city
on the Isle of Sicily. Carthage, Home's
great rival on the north shore of
Africa, one of the great sea powers
of that time, was not at all pleased
with the Idea of Home capturing Syra
cuse, a free city and probably a source
of great revenue through trade with
Carthage.
Syracuse was a well fortified city,
and there seemed to ho no lmmediute
prospect of Home taking It by storm,
so Marcellus decided to starve Its In
habitants Into submission. He put a
cordon of ships across the entrance to
the hnrbor and arrayed his army on
the land side so that no succor could
come from without. But he had un
derestimated tho boldness of the Car
thaginians. There wjis no question of
contraband in those days conditional
or other.
In their swift, oar-drlen gallejs the
sailors of tho African city easily
eluded the ships set to watch tho port
and carried provisions, water und war
material Into the beleaguered city. So
successful were the Carthnglnlans In
getting supplies into the city, running
the blockade that had It not fallen
through treachery It would have been
enabled to hold out Indefinitely. While
blockades probably had been estab
lished before on a small scale the
blockade of Syracuse Is one of the
earliest Instances where the efficiency
of a blockade by sea was of vital im
portance In determining the success of
wur on an Important seaport.
Grcatcct Master of Chess.
In 1S,S during a trip to Europe, Paul
Murphy played eight games, blindfold
ed, wltli the best British chess players,
winning six, losing one and drawing
one. In Purls he played blindfolded
simultaneously against eight of the
strongest French players, winning six
and drawing two. This feat he repeat
ed on several occasions while abroad
and after his uoturn to this countrj.
He was educated for the law and final
ly gave up chess plnylng''In order to
devote hlufself to the pnfetico of law
but lost his mind and died In 1881. His
father was attorney general of Louis
lana and afterward judge of tile su
preme court of that state. He was ac
counted a good chess player, hut tin
sou gave him odds and beat him when
tho son was only twelve years old.
More Effective Now.
In 1813 there were 1,210 sugar mills
In Louisiana and their output averaged
that jeur 171,005 pounds per mill. Tin
optratlon factories numbered 153 In
1913 and averaged 3,82(1 pounds (ir

WHO'S GOT
THE MONEY
In Four Staples Alone the Farm
ers of Western Canada Pro
duced 408 Million Dol
lars in 1915.
Tho Calgary (Alhertn) printers have
a house organ, called "The Magnet,"
and In Its columns a few weeks ago
appeared an article entitled "Who's Got
the money?" It was cleverly written,
and but for Its length, tho writer would
have been pleased to have copied the ar
ticle In Its entirety. The purpose for
which this article Is published, how
ever, that of letting the readers of the
paper know of tho great progress that
Is being made In agriculture In West
ern Canada, will bo served by copying a
portion of the article. Many of the
renders of this paper doubtless hnve
friends In one of the three provinces
Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alhertn,
and they will be Interested In feeling
that their friends nve enjoying n
portion of the wenlth that hnst come
to Western Canada farmers ns' a re
sult of careful tilling of a soil prodi
gal In everything that goes to make
good grain, cattle, horses, hogs and
sheep.
Iteproduclng from the article:
The Government does not produce
money. It can stamp "One Dollar" on
a slip of white paper, nd wo nccept
it at n dollar's worth, but neither the
paper nor the printing are worth a
copper. What gives It value is the
promise of the people of Canada which
stands behind tho printed slip, and our
faith in that promise.
Now do you know who's got the
money?
Let us put It Into figures. The farm
ers of Alberta, Saskatchewan and
Manitoba last year raised 342,!) 18,000
bushels of wheat. If" we take for an
average 8.r cents a bushel In Manitoba,
81 cents In Saskatchewan, and 79 cents
In Alhertn the season's wheat crop was
worth $2SO,G29,000. Add to this an
ont crop of 331,810,000 bushels,
worth $05,57,000 ; a barley crop of 35,
254,200 bushels, worth $15,871,000, and
a flax crop of 10,539,000 bushels worth
$15,843,000, and you find that on these
four staples alone the farmers of West
ern Canada produced a wealth of
5107,800,000.
Please note that this wealth Is In
money. It Is not In real estate at In
Hated values, Industrial slocks Unit are
half water and the rest air, fictitious
goodwills or unsaleable merchandise.
It Is In linrd cash, or which Is better
hard wheat.
These figures are only for the staple
grain productions. They do not In
clude the millions of dollars represent
ed by the live stock and dairying indus
tries, or the additional millions Includ
ed In the root, fruit, und garden crops.
The creameries of Saskatchewan, for
Instance produced more buttermilk
and Ice cream last year than their
total production amounted to six years
ago. The milk, butter, and cheese pro
duction of Alberta for 1915 was valued
at over eleven million dollars. Tho po
tato crop of the three provinces wit's
worth five millions and a half. Corn
and alfalfa comparathely new crops,
charged with tremendous possibilities
amounted to over u round million.
Even honey you didn't know we
raised honey (the bee kind) In this
country, did you? Manitoba produced
103,000 pounds In 19(5, and there Isn't
a bee in the province that doesn't
swear he's a belter honey-sorter than
anything In California or Washington.
That's where the money Is; In the

HE HAD MADE NO PROMISES

Although he will not get many op

Tho famous comedian has a great
love for the summer gnnic, and he tells
an amusing story of one of those off
days, when everything goes wrong,
which once befell lilm. He was watch
ing a game when one of the captains
cunie up to him, explained thnt he was
"a man short," und asked him If ho
would play.
"Certainly," agreed ltobey.
He went out to field, and chiefly dis
tinguished himself by missing two
catches, fumbling tho bnll, and so on.
Not content with thnt, ho nuulo n duck

The captain. who had got him to piny
took things badly.
"Why, you can't play at all 1" ho said
snecrlngly.

tically, "when you asked mo to play
you asked me If I would, not If I
could. And so that's that." Pearson's

Her Secret.
A witness, a Jolly, plump old wom
an, in a trial In the supreme court of
Massachusetts, was asked what time a
certain train of ears passed her house.
She replied that she began knitting at
three o'clock and had knit twice
around the leg of a stocking before It
came along.
The next question, of course, was
how long it would take her to knit
twice around. The Judge here, In his
usual quiet humor, suggested that that
would depend upon the size of the
stocking.
To this the witness remarked that
the stocking was for herself and thej
could exercise their own Judgment as
to the size, and guess how long It
would take.
And those chaps who think that lliej
ought to get pay for being good prob
ably wouldn't draw lunch of a salary
at that.
