WASTING HAPPINESS.
The more or less worth while human race is
ever straining and striving for what it calls suc
cess. Its individual atoms watch and wait and
plan for their several conceptions of a future
state here on earth that will be full of content
and plenty. Happiness is what they are really
after, and money being everywhere regarded as
essential to happiness, its accumulation is easily
the leading occupation of civilized mankind. It
js sought through every conceivable channel
invention, speculation, professional achievement,
business, and theft. Honest and dishonest alike
seek happiness, which is the universal goal of
good and bad, weak and strong, ignorant and
learned.
If a man is prosperous and still fails to find
happiness, those of us as yet far fratm opulence
say: "The devil take him I if he is not happy
now that he is successful, he must be a nut.
Give us his wealthand we'll take care of our
happiness."
And so we watch and wait for our happy
time' to come, forgetting what Bacon says in his
essay on "Delays:" "For if a man watch"too
long, it is odds he will fall asleep." And thus
it happens that most of us fall asleep while we
are watching, and are nicely laid away in some
cemetery without ever getting what we so long
sought.
Epictetus says "it is never possible for hap
piness, and desire for .what is not present, to
come together," and tells us there is only one
way to happiness, which is "not to look toward
things which are out of the power of our will."
"That which is happy must have all that it de
sires," said the Stoic philosopher, and Paul had
it when he said: "I have all, and abound; I am
full."
Paul had learned in whatsoever state he was,
therewith to be content a mtfntal attitude im
possible for most of us. Our longings contin
ually reach out beyond us, to things which will
ever be out of the power of our will. But there
are many people who have happiness within
their reach who do not take it. They grab
pleasure as a substitute, and learn too late that
one may have his fill of pleasure all day long
and go to bed miserable. With quite enough to
make all their fond-dreams come true, these
lovers of pleasure and the vanities of life, of
sport and society, of games and physical in
dulgences, these mistaken souls waste their sub
stance in the wrong direction and entirely miss
their mark. Others, with happiness beckoning
to them, postpone it to add a few more years
of profits to their bank accounts or income in
vestments, or to score a few more professional
triumphs, before entering into well earned hap
piness and the carrying out of the long cher
ished private ideals of their lives.
rrf Vs . . . .
j. nen aiong comes me grim reaper in tne
guise of an acute infection or some other fatal
malady, and carries them oft" unfinished, with
only a glimpse and never an experience of the
promised land of happiness they might have oc
cupied for many tranquil, useful and delightful
years, if they had utilized their success when
utilizing was good." And so many reasonable
expectations go up in thin air, and
The best-ldid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft a-gleyi
And leave us naught but grief and pain
For promised joy.
A dead man has no opportunity on earth.
What man gets here'he must take while he is
alive. What he does in a personal way to crown
and complete the lives of his loved ones, he
must do before his death. Happiness is inti
mately associated with service to others. Ac
cumulating money is always tinged with selfish
ness. Using the fruits of success to make others
happy is a ncver-faiiing joy. We should begin
that closing phase of our lives just as soon as
our means justify it. Otherwise we are likely
to be wafted hence with some experience of
pleasure but little of genuine happiness, the one"
thing for which we have toiled and denied ourselves.
Efficiency and Character.
An eastern doctor, whose Ion? experience
gives him authority to peak, expresses the opin
ion that the tests for mentality now being ap
plied to youth in schools and colleges are pro
ducing results not at all reassuring for our civ-
ilization. He admits that th tests are serving
to establish the mind power and qualifications,
and in this way determine! the efficiency, of the
subjects. He questions, however, whether
efficiency is the sole end of mental development.
To him the quality of character comes first, and
this is not to be measured by the processes of
psychology now in vogue.
Character is human, while efficiency is not.
If the purpose of our civilization is to develop
machines for the creation of wealth, the
processes now challenged are the right ones; if
there is anything finer or better, and therefore
the more to be desired, then it ought to be
sought To bring out the human qualities of
the individual, to direct and shape them into
serviceable form, arid give them permanent
mold, that the moral nature will be both broad
ened and strengthened, should be the primary
aim of the schools.
Training in efficiency brings out capacity for.,
doing material things and these are needed for
the advancement of the general interest of man
kind. Danger lies in the subjection of the
nights, purpose of life, however, ' and this is
what fjs feared by those who believe too much
stress is being laid on tne psychological cxpen-
meats that serve only to de terrains the particu
lar capacity of the individual for achievement of
definite tasks and with no regard for the build
ing of character.
The point is. not a new one, having been
frequently discussed by educators and econo
mists, but its final determination does not appear
to be in sight yet. v
Town or Country?
When the city man, cribbed, cabin'd and con
fined within walls, or if on the street, sur
roundeilfey towering buildings and hurrying
throngs, reads of the daily chores o Governor
Coolidge, envy rises in his breast. The man
who can step out and mow a bit before break
fast, use an axe on firewodd, potter around in a
big cool barn, and do this and that in the open,
clean country places, has a great advantage
over the trim city chap in white shoes and im
maculate linen.
He is not concerned over collars or ties,
shoes or trouser creases, nor any of the so
called refinements of dress. He can wear what
he will, even old-fashioned high top boots, and
be free to sit down on a dusty bin in the barn,
or in the cool grass under a shade tree, with
never a thought of unkind consequences. He
is totally emancipated from the thralldom of
fashion and urban convention. He does not
look as neat as the city chap, but he is more
comfortable.
With tobacco in his old tobacco box, a pole
and line, and a can of worms, the deep holes
in the creeks promise him sport, and he may
ramble as he will over hill and cfown dale, the
long day through, and at sunset sit down to
hot biscuits, yellow butter, fried chicken, mashed
potatoes, applebutter, fresh pickles, 'cold butter
milk, cherry preserves, apple pie, and simply
gorge himself and sleep like a baby, in the
country. What is a town basement compared
with that?
How perverse is human nature! In 'town;
it longs for country freedom and fodder. In
the country it hankers for the bright lights and
elegancies of city life. But of two good lives,
one spent on a farm or in a village, and the
other in the rush and roar of a big city, who
dares say the latter is the better?
An Object Lesson on Tires.
On Monday morning a caravan will start
from Omaha that is worth watching. It will
consist of a number of motor trucks, each car
rying a load, and with the sole purpose of dem
onstratingthe utility of this form of transpor
tation. As one of the promoters says, the out
fit has nothing to sell the farmers along the
way, save an idea. . '
That idea, of course, is the service of the
motor truck.
It is passing strange that such a demonstra
tion should be required at this time, after the
automobile has so thoroughly demonstrated
its serviceability. But, admitting that such is the
case, the caravan will carry a message of eman
cipation to the farmers. It has been established
beyond any question that whatever lowers the
cost of transportation from farm to market in
creases the profits of the producer, as the cost
of carriage is taken directly from the selling
price of his output. The farmer, therefore, is
more directly and intimately concerned in trans
portation that anything else, save the actual
processes of tilling the soil and gathering the
crops.
Good roads and autotrucks afford the easiest
and most practical solution of the primary prob
lem of transportation, that of the "short haul."
Distances of 100 miles, or even greater, are with
in the range of the self-propelled freight car
rier, and under decent conditions of the roads
it has given service as expeditious and in many
ways more satisfactory than afforded by the
railroads. For these and other reasons, the
progress of the caravan over its route is well
worthy the attention of farmers and others who
are interested in movement of freight over short
distances.
Bird Customs and "Bird" Ignorance.
The Department of Agriculture is making
some remarkable discoveries at Washington in
bird life. It seems that "bird study" is an im
portant branch of the activities of agriculture
as exemplified by swivel-chair agriculturists on
the national payroll.
It must be admitted that there are many
"birds of a feather" in office in Washington,
and that all of these "birds" might be studied
with profit to the taxpayers. But that's to one
side. What we wish to call attention to is the
following statement from the biological sur
vey's publicity department:
A curious discovery, learned from trapping
and banding birds, may lower these feathered
friends of man in the estimation of many who
cite them as models of "mates for life.". This
is that there are so-called "divorces" in bird
land. The extent 'to which birds divorce
themselves from their mates and start on new
marital careers is only one of the interesting
side lights that appear from the studies thus
entered upon. The question of "bird divorces"
is one which has been suggested by informa
tion secured from a Cleveland bird lover, the
first user of trapping methods which have
been adopted by the biological survey. He
found that in one case, at least, a retrapped
bird had remated (though the former mate
was still alive) and was rearing a brood with ,
its new mate just as it had done with its "first
love."
After reading of this remarkable "discovery"
we are wondering if the extensive libraries of
the Department of Agriculture contain a good
history of marriage and marriage customs, or of
Prof. Fiske's "Excursions of an Evolutionist."
If so, both those books will disclose to certain
department writers their abysmal ignorance of
facts about birds, known for a generation or
more, and possibly protect them from future
public, humiliations arising from their amazing
lack of information.

Fair Play for the Foreign
Born
Arthur Woods, Former .Police Commissioner,
NW York City, in-July Forum.
I am net at all sure but that one of the most
evident ways in which American citizenship
may now be on trial is with reference to those
who are not citizens, with reference to the alien,
the foreign born. We keep hearing the expres
sion "Americanize the foreign born," and we
cannot help wondering what is going to be
come of the poor fellow if everything that is
planned in the way of Americanization is done
to him.
It is not a mechanical process, this business
of making a foreigner a good citizen. The war
showed that it was not a mechanical process.
I suppose in every regiment of our army,- of
every battalion, there were not merely foreign
born, but there were foreign born who could
not speak English. Those men fought. They
fought loyally. They fought well. They were
amenable to discipline. They acted the part of
Americans as well as people could act itthese
men who were not citizens, who did not speak
our language, who very likely did not know what
it was all about. There is a good deal of differ
ence of opinion among those who are their
betters in acquaintance with American ways as
to what it was all about. That makes me feel
and I think must make us all feel, that the learn
ing of the English language is not a necessary
essential to being a good citizen, and when we
hear agitation to prevent the publication of
foreign-language newspapers it seems to me we
areon the wrong track. I don't believe we are
going to make people better Americans by pre
venting them from reading the news in a lan
guage which they can read with less effort than
they can English.
We hear, too, of the effort to make the for
eign born learn something about the, consti
tution and the Declaration of Independence.
There is a movement' on hand to put a copy of
the constitution into every tamily in the coun
try. I don't believe you are going to make a
good citizens by jamming the constitution down
his throat.
There is no royal road to Americanizing the
foreigner. You cannot' give him a pill and have
him wake up an American. You cannot make
him an American by teaching him the language
or teaching him some of our great state papers.
What we want to do is not simply to take him
by the hand and make him a citizen, it is to make
him a good citizen. That is our object. No
democracy can go on as it should unless the
majority of the people are good citizens.
The alien differs from the rest of us only by
the lapse of a few generations. We are all of
us foreign born if you go back a few generations.
We came to. this country. We like it. We de
cided to make it our home. We gradually took
part in its affairs, took part in its public affairs.
When you see the mess that has been made by
the native citizen of some of our public affairs,
you cannot criticise the alien too severely for
things that he has done and has failed to do.
There is no royal road, but there is a definite
way, and the definite way is to make good in
our acts, now that we have the alien among us;
to make good in our acts the practical promises
we made in the invitation of the country to the
oppressed from all over the world to come here
and live among us. It is the friendly, welcoming
hand thate wants.
Some posts of the American Legion have
caught that idea in a very promising way. The
American Legion is, I suppose, closer to the
alien than any other organization except the
distinctly native-born associations, of which
there are a great many, because such large
numbers of service men were foreign born or
of foreign born parentage themselves. A lot
of them have been through the mill. They,
know how the alien feels. They know what
he needs. The war has stimulated in these men
to a tremendous extent a feeling of the solidarity
of the country, a feeling of their part in the
country. They can go to other aliens with the
double advantage of knowing what the alien
feels and what he is, and of knowing what is
the American civilization in which he is living
and with which they hope he will identify himself.
The hired force that can do more than any
other to give the alien the right idea about this
country, is the police force. The alien does not
know much about the president, and cabinet,
and senators, and representatives, and supreme
courts, and things. He does know that pretty
tough-looking official in blue uniform with brass
buttons who sometimes walks up and down the
street, but is more often in a comfortable, sta
tionary post. He knows him. He knows he
represents the officialdom of the country. It
was notably true on the East Side in New York,
which is the place where most aliens go, at any
rate for a while, that the policeman on beat was
to the alien his idea of the whole officialdom of
the American government. If the policeman ar
rested him for some reason which he could not
understand, he felt that the government was
unsympathetic.
I often believe that there is no agitator of
evil we need to fear except injustice. When you
have injustice on a large scale you are prepar
ing the ground for those who come around and
bank on injustice in order to further their own
ideas. If an anarchist or revolutionary orator
gets up and tries to stir a crowd to do unlawful
revolutionary things, his chances of success are
pretty good if most of the people in that crowd
have grievances, either real or imaginary.
These immigrants have perfectly eood civili
zations of their own. They have manners and
customs, which are just as dear to them as ours
are to us. They come here as a rula with a
wholly friendly feeling toward this country.
they would not have come it they had not that
feeling. They are ready to learn about us. They
are eager to learn. They don't like much the
idea, the word, of being Americanized. It looks
as if a superior, patronizing race had set out
to show them its .ways, on the theory that they
were tired, and disloyal, and ashamed of their
own ways. They resent that attitude. They
are proud di the things that they have got by
inheritance trom their ancestors. They are
ready to be good Americans, eager to .be good
Americans; but they would like a little fnend
liness, a little consideration, a little tact shown
in the process.' That, it seems to me, is the way
in which American citizenship is going to suc
ceed or to fail in the trial of assimilating peo
ple who come to us from all parts of the earth.
I spoke a moment ago of the treatment for
the people who defiantly break our laws. The
full force of the law must be invoked against
these people. Those are a small group. There
is a larger class who believe in making changes
in our government, but who intend to do it by
observing the rules of the game. Probably the
most wholesome thing in our whole scheme of
government is the fac that it permits change,
that it permits of growth. I have thought re
cently that no matter how wild the revolution
ist may be, he need not despair at his failure
to accomplish even extremely radical changes
by lawful means when I remember that it was
lawful means that were used to put through the
18th amendment to the constitution. Any
minority has a right to go ahead and try
fo make itself into a majority. Uneasy minori
ties are good things for a plethoric, comfortable
majority to have to deal with. The rights, of
the minority must be regarded by the majority.
It is a test of citizenship to accord to incon
venient minorities their full rights.

THE ELUSIVE SCIATICA.
A man. Buffered for several ypars
from what was generally called
sciatica. In his efforts to get relief
ho took all prts of medicines from
all sorts of doctors.' When Ills doc
tor ..was not looking he gave the
osteopaths and chiropractors a
chance to display their wares. He
wont to. Hot Springs and other bath
resorts. . -
He had a'very definite limp, and
the affected leg was' perceptibly
smaller than its fellow. When the
tape was applied it was found that
the wasting was altogether in the
muscles that In the regions where
the bellies of the great muscles lay
there was a decrease In circumfer
ence of the leg of almost an inch.
He thought he had sciatica, told
all inquiring friends his trouble was
sciatica, and took about all the
sciatica . remedies and tried all the
sciatica nonmedlcine treatments
which his friends, fired at him.
When a man has suffered for a few
years from a disorder which seems
incurable his willingness to take up
with all manner of recommenda
tions with and without birthright Is
positively immoral is almost on a
par with some other forms of pro
miscuity. About this time his pain began to
localize itself in the knee. So closely
did it limit itself to that joint that
after awhile he began to think he
had disease of the knee Joint.
Examination showed that there
was no trouble with his knee Joint
His sciatic nerve was found to be
normal. X-rays and other examina
tion showed that his trouble was in
the hip Joint. He had a chronic
inflammation of the hip joint and
the cause of the pain lay there.
There was no pain in the knee
joint or in the sciatic nerve. It hap
pens that these stations are on the
same line with the hip Joint, and
when the pain signal went in from
the latter locality the switchboard
recorded it as from the former.
The wasting of the affected leg
was due to atrophy of the muscles,
partly because that leg was favored
and partly because of the irritation
and pain. And that is about all the
story. Why tell It if there is only
a fragment to tell?
There are lots of people who sup
pose they have sciatica who have
some other trouble. In fact there
are some who say there is no such
condition as sciatica, properly
speaking; that so-called cases of
sciatica merely are referred pain
due to disease in the spinal cord or
pressure on the roots, of leg nerves
or disease of the hip Joints or some
join of the pelvis itself; that no
treatment of sciatica as such is of
any benefit. Treatment to be ef
fective must be directed at the trouble.

Lead Poisoning Symptoms.

what we think it is? My husband
has been working In a press room

tilated and dark, and lead Is melted
in the same room, and he has been

miserably, and the last two months
broke out with large Itchy eruptions,
which 'do not seem to heal up fast
He quit and went to Arizona, where
he is working In a high, dry cli
mate. What would you recommend
to, drive the poison out? Is he In
any immediate danger? He does
heavy work, digging concrete, and
does not feel bad, only healthily
tired. He has -a good appetite and
sleeps soundly. Would iodide of
potassium be a good remedy to
drive it out of his system ? One doc
tor told him it was cirrhosis and
was very serious. What does that
mean,
REPLY.
Harris has shown that a moderate
number of printers suffer from

was able to find the metal in their
arms. Assuming that your husband
had lead poisoning, he has hit upon
about the best cure. The way to
get rid of the mineral is to sweat It
