We should be appalled if we could see pass before us, in vivid panorama the wrecks caused in a lifetime by cruel thought, writes Orison Swett Marden. In Success Magazine. A stab here, a thrust there, a malicious sar casm, bitter irony, ungenerous criti cism, a jealous, envious or revengeful thought, hatred and anger arc all go ing out constantly from many a mind on deadly missions. Servants have actually been made dishonest by other persons perpetually holding the suspicion that they were dishonest. This thought suggests dis honest v to the suspected perhaps for the first time, and being constantly held takes root and grows and bears the fruit of theft. The old proverb, "If you have the name, you might as well have the game,'' Is put Into action many times. It Is simply cruel to hold a suspicious thought of another until you have positive proof. That other person's mind Is sacred, you have no right to Invade It with your miserable thoughts and pictures of suspicion. Many people scatter fear thoughts, doubt thoughts, failure thoughts wher ever they go; and these take root In minds that might otherwise be free from them and therefore happy, contl dent and successful. Ke sure that when you hold an evil, unhealthy, discordant, deadly thought toward another something Is wrong In your mind. Learn to radiate Joy.- not stingily not meanly, but generously. Fling nut your gladness without reserve. Shed it in the home, on the street, on the car, in the store, everywhere, as the rose sheds its beauty and gives out Its fragrance. When we learn that love thoughts heal, that they carry halm to wounds: that thoughts of harmony, of beauty and truth always uplift and en noble: that the opposite carry death and destruction and blight every where, we shall learn the secret of right living.

In an Instructive table compiled from a bulletin of the department of commerce and labor, Collier's Weekly shows that the average price of all commodities has increased 2'..2 per cent from 17 to l'JOo. In the same period the prices of fuel and lighting have advanced 39.4 per cent, and in the eleven years from H)4 to the close of 1!X)." the per cent of Increase in the prices of building materials was 41.4. The bulletin quoted adds that the cost of living is "still going up." While other government reports af firm, correctly, that in corresponding periods the average of wages has in creased, they also show that wages have not advanced in proportion to the rise of prices. Furthermore, the average rate of wage advance does not affect the grim facts that face the man whose wages or income has not advanced, and many even have re ceded. The general condition thus Indicated is more easily grasped in the light of some specific Illustration like that fur nlshed by the ice trust in Kansas City. That combination is a local one, but the principle involved In its practices applies to the manifold activities which control the sum of the cost of living. This ice trust advanced the price of ice not from any economic ne cessity, but because it could get the money. The same greedy motive all through the range of commodities prompts thj extortion of profits to the very limit of the people's ability or willingness to pay. Conceed.as may be conceded, that the prosperity of the country and the freer circulation and greater volume of money have stimu lated all prices and made the purchas ing power of a dollar less; still after that healthy allowance is made, avar ice and restraint of eoual privileges are at the bottom of the greater cost of living. It needs no abstract reasoning from economic principles to bring this home to every man. In addition to such specific proofs as that of the Ice trust's gouge, the householder realizes that it is daily a harder struggle to make both endi meet. Men whose possible advance in wages has made them look forward to building a home find that the price of building materials has progressed even more rapidly. An iso lated case of extortion by the beef trust might seem inconsequential, but the totality of oppressions for meat, Ice, coal, flour the many articles that must be considered deny to the con sumers their Just share in the greater prosperity and wealth of the country. As matters now stand there must ensue a rational redress by legislation and by Judicious competition, having its initiative in a regard for public rights, or the urasplng avarice of com mercial pirates will strain the peo ple's submission to a tumultuous breaking point.

According to the State Journal, At torney General Norris Brown has given Governor Mickey an opinion in which he says that the board of public lands and buildings has original Juris diction to Investigate charges against Superintendent Alden and Assistant Physician Nicholson of the Norfolk asylum, but that after having made such inquiry it is the duty of the board to report the charges, the evi dence and its conclusion to the gover nor within six days thereafter, to the end that he may review the evidence and determine whether the conclusion of the board is justified or sustained by such evidence, the power of re moval being vested solely in the gov ernor. It is said the Inquiry will be carried on In accordance with this decision and the board may go to Nor folk to take evidence. Dr. Alden's attorney had objected to the manner of the hearing, raising the point that the law provided that the charges should be heard by the board. As the governor reviews the board's finding, he has the final adjudication cf the complaint. Corner Stone Laying at Auburn.
