These are special local wants which will be acted upen in town meeting. Then state-wise we want the lieu- epant governo given power to act as governor. so that when a governor dies in office as did the late George e or when e governor desires to leave the state for a few weeks or months, that we may have an author- ized substitute whose acts will be senstitutional and no special act of the legisiature will be needed to make them legal.

The value of the automobiles and parts exported from the United States will foot up a grand total of twenty millien dollars for 1911; and in 1901 the total exportation did not reach one | million. The fareign sale passed the ape million dollar line, in 1903 it was more than 1 1-2 millien dollars, in 180 : million: in 1906, 4 1-2 on; in 7 4 million: in 130! 3-4 million: in 1910, 13 million: and n 1811 seems likely to be. for automo- fles alone. about 14 million doliars, for parts thereof, except tires, about 3 1-2 million dollars; and for tires, abeut 2 1-2 milllon. These figures are for calendar years. E this increase in value does not fully represent the increase in the number of machines exported, since the export prices has fallen in the meantime. The average expert pric of autemobiles exported in 1903 was, in round terms, $2,000: in 1909, $1,500; in 1810, a little over $1,300. and in the seven months of the year 1911 for ch figures are now available, a tle over $1,008 each, the expert price having thus fallen practicaily one-half since 1308, these figures of average ex- port prices being ebtained by dividing the stated number of automobiles ex- ported inte the stated value thereof for each of the years in question. (anada is by far the largest mar- et fer autemobiles sxporied from the United States.

It is a truth thai occupational dis- eases may be greatly reduced by keep- ing the places in which men are em- ployed, clean, A Chicago physician says occupational diseases are as com- mon as consumption. The state fac- tory inspector of Illinois is carrying on'a eampaign to safeguard workmen t occupational diseases, and the 'k is being welcomed by workmen and their employers. Clean, comfort- able and attractive working quarters is the slogan. The death rate among workmen in Hlinois has decreased 300 per cent. since this sifety movement has got under way, within the last ten vear: Jt will decrease still more. The move- ment has only stafted. Mr. Davies has issued orders to a number of large emiployers, requiring them to provide lavatories, with hot and cold water, clean towels, soap, nail brushes, show- er baths, dressing rooms with indi- vidual lockers, and, further, that the sweeping and cleaning of factories shall be done outside the regular hours. Three Chicago porations have expended. or are nearly half a million dol- lars to provide more comfortable work- ing conditions. They are the stock- yards company. $250,000; the Pullman company, $165.000, and the Illinois Central railroad, $70,000. A STUNNING BLOW FOR RECI- PROCITY. Champ Clark’s political jest helped make the fight against reciprocity in Canada a success, as no other one could, for it was this in the French provinces prompted the priests to make zious issue of it and to frighten parishioners with the idea that with such a change their religious privileges would be greatly restricted, The conservative campaign. was based upon misrepresentation and prejudices and assurances from the leaders to the Canadian people that to knock reciprocity out was to politi- cally kill Taft and to promote the tri- umph of the democracy in the United States by which triumph the Canadian people would be able to gain every ad- vantage of reciprocity without making any sacrifices at all; or, in other words, they would get American mar- kets free while their own were pro- tected: and if the American people are what the Canadians think they be, Canada will win what she knows she really needs without costing her a cent, or a fair policy of exchange. The Grangers of Connecticut are safe; and if they vote for a democrat- ic administration in 1912, they are likely to experience the knockdown in prices without getting the advantages which would come through a fair and considerate exchange trade for which Taft was fighting; and the loss may vet very much greater to the irangers than to Taft, for Canada declared reciprocity with this country would increase prices there rather than reduce them: and that being so we have lost the great increase in profit- able trade which the Canadians would have given us When the country comes to itself and looks the field over, the Canadian defeat of reciprocity is likely to in- crease President Taft's political strength rather than to weaken it, for America does not want a party in power whose economic policies give away what rational nations are glad to win through reciprocal arrange- ments. The democrats have counted upon this as a boom for their party, and if the republicans lack sense it will work to the advantage of the American free traders. EDITORIAL NOTES. thought for today.

Ethel was ambitious in her work at school, and her parents were ambitious for her. They were entirely dependent on Mr Carlisle’s pay for all their espenses, and, though a skilful mechanic, and ccmmanding socd wages, still close economy was required to provide for the family needs and educate their ckildren, of whom Ethel at thirteen was the oldest.

Brought up in the city, she knew little of any- thing outside its limits, and had never heen out in the real countrv for more 4 a day’s ride. The plan seemed attractive to her, and she hoped she would be allowed to go. Her father favored the plan when told of it, and both her parents felt it to be a wise thing to do for their daughter, though they knew they | should miss her greatly. They bravely ETHEL’S SUMMER AT THE LAKE kept this to themselves, howevar, and ‘thel never knew with what heavy hearts they prepared their little girl for the long absence from homa. Mrs. Greyson and Ethel liked each other from the firsi Childless herself, Mrs. Grayson was never so happy as when mothering some young girl, and she gained the confidence of the Car- lisles as well as their gratitude by her gracious manner. So one bright day in the month of May saw them off for Clear lake, not without a few parting tears from Kthel, who had never been separated from her family till then. “Clear lake is mot so far away that they cannot see you often,” said Mrs. Grayson. to comfort her, “and we will lave them all out there some day after the boys are out of school.’ Those same boys felt almost enyious of what they termed Ethel's good luck, and couldn’t see what there was to cry sbout. “Just like a girl,” exclaimed they. 1 wouldn't cry to be out of school for a mice long summer.” Bariy summer was delightful at the snug little cottage home. What ram- Jies they took in the woods, and brought home great bunches of wild flowers for decoration. How they en- jcved tha bird and insect life about them, all so new and strange to the ity-bred child.. How happy she was fo dig up the ferns and creeping plants to fill boxes and odd cormers about the house! Ethel spent all the pleasant days out | of doors, and_with plenty of company Lo was not likely to get homesick. Tiven the stormy days had their pleas- ure, for a bright fire on the heartp was well supplied with pine cones from the trees near by. and an interesting book or pleasant game was always at hand to while away the time. Then letters Taust often be sent home and cheerful reports they wers for the most part. Clear lake was rightly named, and as the season advanced Kthel enjoved a caily dip in its cool waters, and before long her young mates had taught her to swim. Boats wera plenty and row- ing was a favorite pastime. What happy hours they spent upon the lake! How beautiful was the re- fiection of the trees in the limpid wa- ters below them! Still more beautiful the view when sunset glow or bright moonlight made its path across the surface of the placid water. Not al- ways placid, however, for the lake was quite large 2nough to cast up a surf on_the beach during a storm Mrs. Grayson kept her promise to have Ethel's people there during v cation, and all exclaimed over the gain in the girl’s appearancs since they saw her Jast.

AN IDLER. THE MAN WHO TALKS | This September appears to have a distinct character all its own: but as the phenomena of nature repeats itseli may readily be accepted as an un- | vised copy of something the world has se=n before. September is the first month of fall, when the nights grow lcnger and colder: and of its winds an old rhyme tells us: “The south wind | rrings wet weather, the north wind | wet and cold together: the west wind always brings us rain: and the east wind blows it back again” which shows it has always been a pretty wet month. There should be very good weather follow such a cold and dis- | appointing opening of the month, and | if the three weeks of delightful davs do not follow this blighting, early frost the weather wili prove an exception to the rule. It looks now as if the ele- | ments had started a crusade to steal | a little glory from October. since the day of variegated foliag> has been hastened and the iandscape Dbeauty | s often all October’s own has | Leen cast into September’s lap by Jack Frost l.et us hope it may be a onth of bracing days and restful rights. Those who are in the habit of blam- ing the Lord for their afflictions would do well to indulge in a little self ex- amination. The Almighty has better rusiness than specially afflicting his children: and those who live in obedi- ence to the laws of their being main- | tain good health and live many veal Temperance is magic word when | taken in its breadth and orderlines Jeremy Taylor best expressed its worth | and power when he said is reason’s girdle, and passion’s br Temperance de, le strength of the soul, and the foun- dation of virtue” It contributes to i \ and assures comfort and peace this life.

Our Heavenly Father does not make us and those who are obedient to his laws live long and pleasurably. Those who strive to obey the com- mand “Know thysel?” will come into a yrowledse of the law and further their own well-being. Too many people find it convenient to blame the Almighty for the effects of thair own misdeeds. The world is aenerally impressed | that the songs of birds and their twit- | ferings are the means of communica- n with one another, a conclusion which is doubtless true; but birds have an ave for color just as dogs have a rcse for scents. It has been noted that dogs think, compare, remember and reason from smells, as is shown by their ability ta investizate a stranger. detect an enemy that has passed before {ir the path, or to follow the footsteps of their master or mistress, with their Useful scent-interpreting noses. That birds have power to remamber colors ind are prompted. warned and com- ferted by them, there can be no doubt. The color of the dish a canary first bathes in prompts him to decline to bathe in a dish of another color; and the color of his trainer's clothes iden- tifier for him the trainer who he will rot obey if garbed differently. Tt is told of jackdaws in the field that they fiew from a man who wore the coat of a slaver: but showed confidence in him and cama near when he went afield with his own clothes and colors on. So in their own life the plumage of other birds may be a warning or a sign of friendliness to them. There is a broad field for study along < es. sick What is there in a Perhaps there is mol hearty laugh? e than one really thinks there is! There is a great va- riety of laughter. Some kinds of lauehter seem to open the very door of the heart which yields to jollity, Wwhile other laughter expresses vacan- cy of mind, or total lack of feeling, or an absence of all sincerity. The char- actar of the laugh discloses to the keen observer the quality of the laugher: 1t has been well said: “The laughter costs too much which burchased by the sacrificen! decency. It iz of real importance to know when to iangh, and where to laugh, and how to laugh! And yet, the merry heart | been usually laughs when it feels like it and Jaughs aright. To laugh too much is a serious fault; and not to laugh at al] is to be set down as an old cur- mudgeon: but a good laugh has been decreed to be sunshine in the house. A smile is a facial ripple that is eas ily worn out—a wrinkle that needs massaging if it becomes set. Tt al- ways looks well, however, when fora- casting the approach of hearty ,good- natured laughter. “The most utterly lost of all days,” says Chamfort, that in which vou have not laughed.” It is & good thing that the world generally is too polite to tell us what it’ thinks of uS. When the human race learned to suppress thoughts that were irrtating, it took a turn which | immensely increased peace. Man can only learn from himself how thoughts ar held, instead of belng let loose. Voltaire became convined that “one| sreat use of words was to hide our| thongths.” and the world has accept- ed his conviction as a proverb. It would be better if we all strove to T member the declaration of Bove “Language was given us that we might say pleasant things to one an-| other.” A real conviction of this| sort contributes fo the quietness of | lige and the comfort of mankind. There is not much evidence that man cher- shes language much from this stand- | point. Was there ever a more charm- | ing motto than this? How beautifully | such a thought fits the home; and how | it would work to make it more like! heaven. Is there a better pivotal| center for the mind than this? It is| the fulcrum for the lever which would | change human life for the better— make it what it should be. | That brevity is the soul of wit has| long recognized: and it is also| the soul of a political address, or of a| sermon, and a promoter of business. Tt was Luther who said: “The fewer | the words the better the praver.” The| prevailing habit is to talk teo much. | The world is all the time getting too] long sermons, too long speeches, too| long stories and too long pravers.| There is nothing prompts one to brev- ity more than a realization of the val- ue of time. Idleness and conceit are always wasters of time and of words. If we could all understand that time | cannot be killed without injuring ity there would be less time ed. To be able to talk without! saying anything is one of the worst of afflictions. Good sense mever flows in Jarge volume, but oozes out of the mind like honey from honey-comb.

Savs Mr. Stubbs, rezarding the late Napoleon of the railroad worl “Thinking in bed killed Harriman. He worked all day and thought out his problems at night.” Whether this diagnosis covers all the facts in the case or not it is at least too true to be overlooked. We get a picture of a man, working at high pressure all day, still wrestling with his enormous prob- lems after his hours of toil had prop- erly closed. When all the rest of the house was quiet his restiess mind was still planning campaigns. One shrinks from thinking how many thousands of Americans are doing that sort of thing. They are carrying over their cares and tro bles into the hours meant for refresh- ment.
