Mm "Who I nicr Laid Foun-
diLtion for Fortune in 3XieIiigrau.
Among the landmarks of Farming
ton. Mich. , is an old water-power mil
standii'g by the side of the now in
6ignifi'-int : stream tliat flows througl
the village , ti branch of the Rivei
Rouge. The old mill , known as the
Power Mill and later as the Philbricl
Mill , is on the farm of John Power
county treasurer. It was built bj
Samuel Power in 1S3S and in that ear
ly day was the most imposing struc
ture of its kind. in the eastern part of
Michigan outside of Detroit.
The castings were all made at Ann
Arbor and laboriously hauled by wag
on from tliat city. The consequence
was that when at last the mill was
completed Mr. Power and an uncle
from whom he had borrowed money to
complete the mill were impoverished.
The country was so sparsely settled at
that time that customers were few and
the business a losing one.
Mr. Power became discouraged and
gave up the business , and with all his
earthl\r belongings in a small satchel
and 7u cents in money left Farmiugton
to seek his fortune elsewhere. He land
ed penniless in Grand Rapids. Lie
finally secured a job on the railroad
and eventually became a rich railroad
contractor. He returned here in after
years and married a Farmington girl.
At his death he was worth more than
$100.000. His widow , a comparatively
young woman at the time of her hus
band's death , became a teacher , and
for many years has been at the head
of an educational institution. Grand

not have been the case if they had been poor. But , even
so , the fact that 130 members of a ualion of SU.GOO.OUU
of people have married abroad is not g'nug to disrupt or
Impoverish the country.
Some such marriages have ended uuhappily. but by

RESPONSIBILITY.
; jo. three years since Port Arthur surron-
dcre1 ; to the .Japanese1. Meanwhile the
coMiniuding ollicer. General Stoes-el , prepared -
pared his dd'eiise agjiinst the chai'ge of
couardice ar.d ineoiuiiett'nco. lie main
tained that he helxl out as long as was wise
and humane in : > position poorly equipped
and badly armed. The prosecution held that he did not
make soldierly use of liis opportunities.
Although it seems medieval tyranny to put a nan on
trial for his life because he was unsuccessful , yet this
treatment does not differ fumlnmenlnlly from the treat
ment the whole world accoi'us its leaders.
A nation gives a intu a ikvj or army , and biilf ? hni :
go forth and win. If a no tl man fails with poor equip
ment against impossible odds he is disgraced , or at least
not honored. A mediocre man who wins l.y virtue of
fine equipment , a weak eneuiy. loyal followers and for
tunate circumstances , is honored , feted , promoted.
Later history may sum up the merits of a case. Jlut
the world is immediately concerned not with weighing
"points like an umpire , but in drmamling what it wants
success. The Japanese leader who fails commits sui
cide , expressing in a direct way that he who loses is of
r.o further service. Volumes upon Napoleon's superior
generalship ut Waterloo do not explain away the fact
that be was defeated.
In non-military enterprise the leader hears the same
loud call of the world for success. The statesman must
achieve. The manager of the railroad is held respon
sible for the train service and fof the stockholders * divi-
rleuds. "The man behind the gun * ' and the "hero at thy
throttle' ' are justly popular figures , but it is the leader
who irets the major reward foi success and death or life
long suffering for failure. In this the world is unjust to
certain individuals , but on the whole it is just ; Cor
without its rough rewards and punishments the great
motive of responsibility would be lost. Youth's Com
panion.
FA3KEHS , FIKAKTCE AND 3ACKEOXE3.
[ IK farmers are the true backbone of the
nation , whether in time of peace or war.
P.ut from the outstart of the republic ,
while they have been content to bear the
brunt of the fighting and of furnishing
bread and meat and raiment on which
to subsist , they have modestly turned over
to th ir fellow citizens angagod in other pursuits the
task running the overnment. There are signs of a
change. The larmcrs etting tired of currying the
loul without any proper and equitable voice in the di
rection of affairs. Tt will ha- a most auspicious change
for ihe better when the Grangers shall assert themselves
aiid assume their rightful and necessary share in regu
lating the politics of the country. They pay the maiu
s-hare of the taxes , which are so laid as to heavily dis
criminate against them. They should help to fix the
rates. They are in fairness entitled , as the main pro
ducers of revenue , to mainly profit by its distributioa.
They should insist on a suitable control of expenditure.

is rapidly becoming apparent that with
opening of the Orient we are facing
the large condition of two civilizations and
tl % " question of their relations. This is a
qre tion , of course , that concerns the whoie

should be prepared with some quality of statesmanship
to meet it with becoming wisdom. It is not to be made

Not long before his departure for
England the A Wine Club in Xe\v York
gave Consul Doyle a farewell dinner ,
where he made au offhand speech , a
part ( if which is worth repeating , says
the Ikmkman. lie began by telling how
on his arrival in lioston the cabman
who drove him from the station refused
to accept any fare from him. but po
litely asked for a ticket to the reading.
Dr. Doyle expressed surprise that the
cabman should have recognized him
and asked : "Tell me how you found out
who I am and you shall have tickets
for your whole family and such cigars
as you smoke here in America besides. "
Whereupon , according to Dr. Doyle , the
cabman answered :
"If you will excuse personal remarks ,
your coat lapels are badly twisted
downward , where they have been grasp
ed by the pertinacious Xew York re
porters. Your hair has the quakerish
cut of a Philadelphia barber and your
hat. battered at the brim ? n front.

it in the struggle to stand your ground
at a Chicago literary luncheon.
"Your right overshoe has a largo
block of Buffalo mud just under the
instep ; the odor of a Utica cigar hangs
about your clothing , and the overcoat
itself shows the slovenly brushing of
the porters of the through sleepers

on the top of your bag pardon me ,

there in Springfield , and stenciled upon
the very end of the 'Wellington. ' in

Somewhat more veracious than this
anearlote ta the story which Con an
Doyle tells of an experience which he
had when leaving school. Ills teacher
must hare been one of tlmse uoble old
Romans such as Thackeray describes
as roariuir at young Pendeunte when
the major , his uncle , called to take the
boy away. AYheii Conan Doyle had hu-
isl ed his course in school , the head
master called him aside and , after ey
ing him vvith ominous disfavor , spoke
to him in measured tones as follows :
"Doyle , I have known you now for sev
en years , and I know you thoroughly.
I am iroing to say something which
you will remember in after life. Doyle ,
you will never come to any good ! "

A lady writer wlio not only has done
; oed literary work , but reared a family ,
ound in Grape-Xuts the ideal food for
train work and to develop healthy
hildren. She writes :
"I am an enthusiastic proclaimer of
irape-Xuts as a regular diet. I fonner-
y had no appetite in the morning and
or 8 years while nursing my four chll-
Iren , had insufficient nourishment for
hem.
"Unable to eat breakfast I felt faint
iter. and would go to the pantry and
at cold chops , sausage , cookies , dough-
uts or anything I happened to find ,
teing a writer , at times my head felt
cavy and my brain asleep.
"When I read of Grape-Xuts I began
utinir it every morning , also gave it to
: ie children , including my 10 months
Id baby , who soon grew as fat as a
ttle pig. good-natured and contented.
"Within a week I had plenty of
reast milk , and felt stronger within
vo weeks. I wrote evenings and feel-
ig the need of sustained brain power ,
? gau eating a small saucer of Grape-
uts with milk instead of my usual in-
igestible hot pudding , pie , or cake for
? ssert at night. &
"Grape-Xuts did wonders for ? ne and
learned to like it. I did not mind
y housework or mother's cares , for
felt strom : ami full of 'go. ' I grew
uinp. nerves strong , and wlien I wrote
y brain was active and clear ; indeed ,
ie dull head pain never returned. "
