This is as it should be. The Christian Sabbath must be preserved with at least some degree of sanc- tity, for in this is one of the funda- mentals of our civilzation. But with all our laws on this question and their multifarious, variable and var- ious operations there is an element of diserimination and unfairness, Fou istance, take the law as it is oper- ated in our own city. Our people may go out on Sunday and purchase a cart load of apples, oranges, grapes bananas, ete,, but they could hardly by a peck of potatoes if their life depended on it; they can buy most any kind of canned goods but they can’t buy a pocket handkerchief; they can go into our drug stores on the Sabbath and buy a pair of cuff buitons but they can't step across the street and get a pair of cuffs to put them ing they can buy pins and tie clasps but no tie or scarf; they can buy a safety razor but they can’t go to the barber shop a shave nor will the barber sell them a bath thouzh they may tep into the drug store and buy a! barrel of toilet soap; they can’t L": te a clothing store and buy a pair of | breeches or to the market and geu! o soup bone but they can go to the| drug store and get a hundred dollar| diamond or a tooth brush. searl and buy All t may be all right but it oc-! curs 1o that it is just a little un- fair aud certainly in violation of that old time-honored principle of which we hear so much and see so little, that the law should apply with ‘qual torce to all classes and condi- tions of men, Money Question from Woman's Vlcw. i Most men trust their wives with their hearts, but draw the line at thelr pocketbooks.

It is considered within proprieties to . file a claim upon a desirable seat ot another senator, who, because of op- | position, may not be able to occupy it beyond his existing term.

There is, however, not an unnaturul[ feeling on the part of the members! who have served for many years, that it is more becoming in a new membs | to wait a reasonable time., A l.t'\‘fF member frequently disregards this however, and almost ini-| mediately delivers an address, which one intimately acquainted with poli- ticol campaigns rather suspect bears a clese resemblance to his can- i new | paign speech, While, a new senator ha the rizht to speak the first day he sworn in, ol course, and thus, as someone b the wonder of how i . better progress, it secu o by one who is no There is t said, inercense got there to me, is made quite fo venturesome. < 1o he said in justification of the fecl-!| ing of which | have spoken; my ob-| servation has shown me that while it may be true that a new member, especially oie who has never h:ul‘ legislative experience in either branch of congress, may be as famil- iar with general principles of legis- lation, yet the older member speaks with more information, not only a: te the details of legislation, but as to ] the history of similar prior legisla- tion ana circamstances surrounding it. This brings us to an acknowledg- ment of the fact that in order for a member of the senate to be able to speak with full confidence on a sub- jeet, he must have devoted much time and considerable study to past! legislation,” DO NOT LEAN UPON OTHERS | Learn to Stand Alone or You Never Will Become Strong or J Original, Power 1s the goal of every worthy ambition, and only weakness comes trom imitation or dependence on oth- ers, says Orison Swett Marden In Suc- cess Magazine. Power Is sell-devel- oped, self-generated. \Ve cannot in- crease the strength of our muscles by sitting In a museum and letting an- other exercise for us. Nothing else so destroys the power to stand alone as the habit of leaning upon others. If you lean, you will never be strong or original. Stand alone or bury your ambition to be somebody In the world. The man who tries to give his chil- dren a start in the world 8o that they will not have so hard a time as he had, Is unknowingly bringing disaster upon them. What he calls giving them a start' will probably give them a set: back In the world. Young people need all the m tive power they can get. They are naturally leaners, imitators, copiers, and it is easy for them to de They will not walk alone while you furnish crutches; they will lean upon you just as long as you will let them.
