BETTER SIDEWALKS, The appearance of a few patches of mew sidewalk about the oity only calls to attention the great opportunity which exists in this direction for the improvement of the appearance of the city streets and for contributing to the comfort of the walking public. There is need for a widespread awakening in this regard for the bad sidewalks are not confined to any one section, but exist im them all and nothing is more deterimental. Every city is judged to a more or less extent by the appear- ance of its streets and its stdewalks and with our system of constructing walks there s an Important public duty resting upon the property owners to practice the golden rule, while there is no less an obligation upon the part of the city to see that proper recogni- tion is given to ordinary requirements in the way of safety and public neces- sity. A movement for good sldewalks should take precedence over the ef- fort for good roads affecting as it does all the people, but the attention given it and the lack of sympathy rather in- dicates a reluctance to part with the defective walks. Nothing is more ap- preciated than a good sidewalk, but nothing seems to be harder to get or to keep properly maintained than that same sidewalk. Public sentiment should rise to the higher level of re- quirements and replace the useless with the usefu!, BUDGET UNDEMOCRATIC. The action of the democrats Washington in turning dvwn the pro- posal for a budget committee can only be taken to mean that they are op- posed to any regulation of the nation’s business on the basis of income and expense. This was well indicated in advance by the attitude which was taken towards necessary government provisions in order to swell the amount available for the “pork barrel” policy which the last sesslon of congress o strongly favored. To create a budget committee or conduct the government upon the budget:basis would quickly dispose of the large expenditures for needless work while the necessary re- quirements woulg get better attention. The budget policy is one which re- ceived the strong advocacy of Pres- ident Taft and business and commer- cfal organizations throughout the coun- try have urged its adoption in the in- terest of efficiency anl economy. That the system which is required for the operation of municipal and state gov- ernments should be applied to the na- tional government is but a logical de- mand, and it is but natural that it should make its appeal to the think ing men of the country. It might not be an advantage to the politician, the. log roller and the official who desires to build up patronage, but it is the welfare of the country and not sel- fish motives which should actuate the representatives of the people. It is an opportunity which the democrats have for benefiting the administration of the national affairs but indications are that they will not be equal to the self denial. The idea of a budget seems to be undemocratic. in The losing candidate in the Ar- kansas democratic primary for gov- ernor, is to contest the result. claim- ing fraud. Ts this to feature the early operation of this important reform in politics? Fraud was supposed to be reserved for conventions. Now that 1t has been decided to send the Liberty Bell west for a 6,000 milo trip, it is to be hoped the decision will be appreciated and no harm will come to the famous relic Hundreds of thousands will see it who never would otherwise. Such cruelty to horses as the prac- tice of blinding them, as reported from Chicago, deserves only the extreme penalty of the law. It's a commercial- ization of crueity which must be promptly and effectively checked. The only possible rebuke that the president has given Attorney McNabd is to say that what was right in May concerning immed‘ate procedure in the white slave cases is right in Junme, e wins huthe-eses, - .. .. The last session of the legislature gave evidence of reeognizing the need of giving every possible measure of safety to the schoolchildren, who may be attending school In old buildings | where the provisiens for protection against fire are not as good as In the structures which are bulilt under mod- ofh methods. The frequency with which fires break out In schoels war- | rants taking all precautions and the maintenance of fire drills, alterations in the school stairways and the re- quirement that doers must open out- ward are all wise steps which have | now been added to by the law demand- ing fire escapes on schoolhouses which are over one story and which do not have two or more means of egress. The new law is a mandatory one and carrfes with it no small amount of expense which applieg alike all- ‘over the state where this provision does not exist. Makeshifts cannot be palmed off to cover the point since construc- tion which will support adults who might crowd them are required and the enforcement is left with the chief of the fire department and the state board of education. The fireproof building is much to be desired, but where they do ot exist it is no more than proper that every pre- caution against fire be taken and while fire escapes do not. insure absolute safety, they do provide an additional | menns of getting out in cases of emer- gency, and the new law in requiring their construction overcomes the hag- gling on the question of false economy. CONNECTICUT WOODLAND. Whether Connecticut 1s taking full | advantage of the opportunity which | is" offered for, forestation or refores- tation, is doubted, but that there is a well started movement in this di- rection is indicated by the sixth an- nual report of the Connmecticut Agri- cultural Experimental station concern- ing forest planting when it is shown | that in the past thirteen years nearly four thousand acres of land have been | planted with forest trees, over half of which were of commercial species. Greater interest is being taken in this direction through the endeavor to re- place much of the woodland of the | state and it is being conducted on a | serub 1and.to develop for itself. | farm movement and the making use | {‘agricultural land into a profitable in- scientific basis instead of allowing New | Yorlk.state has done far more than has | Connecticut, but like the back to the of the abandoned farms, the refores- | tatlon idea is being carried out on | many tracts which are turning non- | vestment With the countless number of de- nuded hills and ridges throughout the state of Iittle or no use for other pur- poses, now they have been freed from | 1 i I their timber the opportunity of re- stocking them and developing wood- land unger tific direction 1s an opening which is going to offer the farmer an additional source of revenue as well as proving of value in giving | aid towards comserving the rainfall of the staté. Another decade should show a marked increase in this use of otherwise non-productive land. | SAFE AND SANE FOURTH. What value there is in the safe and sane Fourth is well indicated by the table prepared by the American Med- fcal association showing the marked reduction not only in the number of deathe, but In the almost cutting In two of the number of injured as the result of a subdued celebration. This showing tells its own story as follows: Killed Injured 1903 .. 486 1904 .o 188 1905 a8z 1908 158 1907 164 1908 163 1909 215 1910 131 1911 AT 1912 . . 41 Not only does such an improvement contribute to the relief of suffering, but it also reduces the great amount of sorrow and grief to the relatives and friends. The safe and sane Fourth is only requiring the use of good judgment and a proper regard for life and limb. It is absurd to think that a recklessness which would not be tolerated any other day in the year should be desired at the celebra- tion of one of the country's greatest holidays. That the day should be ob- served throughout the entire country is perfectly proper and desirable, but it is far preferable that it should be done with consideration for self and others. The safe and sane Fourth need not detract from a worthy observance but it does mean the elimination of the dare-devil spirit, a movement which is strengthened as its value is being definitely established. EDITORIAL NOTES. The only sign any .city should need is that of prosperit; A good vacation is'a well invested use of time and money There was nothing about the al- manac day which gave any cause for worry in the way of heat. Happy thought for today: Graduates are now seeking a position, but they | may be satisfied with a job. If aviators persist in colliding the time is fast approaching when all steel | craft will be demanded with rubber bumpers. When Dr. Wiley advised refraining | from watching the thermometer he was anticipating some red hot in- stead of temperate weather. Governor Blease seems to be trying to get South Carolina back to its de- fiant condition before the war. It is likely to mean a new governor.

THE MAN WHO TALK: It is exxceptional when June, the month of roses, also parades as a month of frosts. June 1913 has the questionable honer of having a real ige-maker on the morning of the 9th. How Thomas Wentworth Higginson's tribute to June reads on such a June as this. “God offers us yearly a neck- lace of twelve pearls,” wrote he, “most | men choose the purest label in June, and cast the rest away.” An old say- ing this; “It never clouds up in a June night for rain, ” but it did on! the night of the 20th, and & needed downpour was the result. This June | in memory must have been a night- mare without that Dlessed rain. Mackerel skies and skies decorated with mares’ talls hdve not proven re- liable tokens of/coming rains. Flora’s children have been blighted with thirst as well as shrivelled with frost, and the gardens have been as lean as a razor -hog in southern pine woods. There was nothing rarer than a rare day in June 1813, ! How to overcome sleeplessness is not an ‘easy problem as the many remedies for it clearly show. All drugs which compel sleep, could of | course, as readily force us to die. Hot drinks of water or milk, or the little lunch in hed, or the hot sponge ap- plied to the spine, or the mental ex- ercise of counting over and over 100, or the concentration of mind which debars all else execept thoughts of rest, do not always result satis- | tactorily; neither does the well-trained imagination which ealls up pictures ! of summer scenes and singing birds, mountain tops and magnificent views, ! pebbly beaches and purling waters, | clear lakes and beautiful shadows, | flower-bedecked fields and wonderful | sunsets; and, vet, one and all of these | things have driven the demon Insom nia away and called in the god of dreams to restore to weary souls the | energy and the poise which makes ! life a delight rather than a burden. Some one has said it is better to be filled with hope than with dope, and a few people do not appear to have any hope without dope;and when out | of dope are out of hope. But, still, the | true—it is better | to be filled with hope than with dope; tal endeavor. Too much dope is death | to hope. It is also profitable to hope against hope, as it is to agree to dis- | agree. Don't entertain discouragements —dor't invite disputes. Hope has been | defined as “the anchor of the soul,” | and declared to be “the last thing that dies in man” Shakes- peare ys: “The miserable have no other medicine except hope, 80 it 1s up to us to see that we take our medicine and knock out des- pair. The mind that flies from hope to hope al has a gleam of sunshine to cheer it. Too many people wreck their lives through discontent. They are never zlad they are themselvs, but are con- stantly wishing they were someone else. They are chasers of opportunities hope for, instead of those right at hand. The person who is trying to be somgone else is facing a_forlorn ve. and does not kmow it. You can only be yourself, and yourself is your | problem in life—you are to make the | most of every situation and to do with | faithfulness ~and sincerity whatever to be a skillful artisan than to be an upon what you would do if you had | Bill's chance; but determine to do well what has fallen to you to do.

Why should we recount our disappointments | instead of our blessings—why nurse | our troubles instead of rehearsing our | j It is the state of our mind which gives us facial expression—turns the corner of our mouths up or down, and | marks us either as a pessimist or an optimist. Man is the only self build- | ing and self repairing machine, and a | self-maker. ~The countenance that shines with goodness only reflects the | heart back of it—it mirrors a temper- | amental condition. Beauty may be | only skin deep, but it has to be mind- | sustained. The thoughts which turn ' the mouth down spoil ™ hat might be a better picture. Every one of us indulge in more or | less wrath; and when our wrath boils over we do discreditable things. It is self-control which takes man closest to Godlikeness; and temper let loose | which takes him farther from God. These passions represent the storm; and their control the ‘peace be still” which produces the calm. This is where the invoked spirit gives us power. Uncontrolled auger approaches lunacy—it makes of its victims irre- | sponsibles. You may not have thought | how closely selfishness and anger are | associated—it is the supremly selfish | who are liable to becume in anger | most violent. The man who idolizes | himself pleases the devil. The more | self is suppressed the easier is the spirit of love expressed. Anger is| weakness—love is power. Anger calls | for repentance—love is a fount of per- | petual joy. | As the man in the valley T cannot | help thinking of the broader view of | What a variety | of horizons we have.

The shore dweller sees where sky and ocean meet, and beholds the glory of the heavens re- flected in the water and the fury of the winds expressed in crested waves and roaring breakers; but the man on the hill sees hill answering to hill, with the valleys and streams and hamlets between, and the glory of dawn and sunset, and all that lies between sun- set and dawn. Nature's changing moods are a moving picture which never lacks variety, never has an end. Jiternity Is written across the sky, and the whistling winds say: “Ever more!

Ruth Rogers was a farmer’s daught- er, plump and rosy from exercise in the open air and plenty of good fare, and happy because she delighted in her home and the love shared with all its inmates. Hspecially was she her father’s pride and pet, and he often de- clared he could not run the with- out Ruth’s help. Se when an unusual- Iy busy time overtook him in the early spring, he turned over to Ruth's care the flock of hens, and told her she ould have the egi money for her own in_payment. Ruih had long had o consuming de- sire for a certain style of side combs, and now saw her chance to obtain them. The advance in price, however, made her much richer than she antici- Dated, for her father kept his word in spite of the increased value of eggs. Ruth's mother was not so indulgent as her father, and felt that a different arrangement 'should be made, but her husband affirmed that he should keep his bargain with his daughter as he hould with any one else. So one day Ruth started out on a shopping expe- Qition on her own account with more money in her purse than she had ex- pected from the sale of the eggs. Her | mother, however, gave her a long list of needs, which she said her daught- er might supply herself with, since she had so much to invest, and the cher- ished side combs seemed less a reality than they did. Artrived at the store, she gave her | ttention first of all to the list of needs | furnished by her mother, and left own desires to be gratified later in the day. But every time she passed at the counter where they were kept, those side-combs were picked up and admired. At last the end of the list was reach- ed, and she was feeling quite sure of obtaining the coveted combs, when she remembered the last direction her mother gave her as she left home. “T haven't put them down, but you had | you are about it,” and those lovely side-combs were the same price as the stockings. Ruth was sorely tried and tempted to tell hereelf that the list of things were bought and she could claim she forgot the verbal direction, New England conscience was to be deceived, and back to the stockings, thinking “I can make the plain ones do a while Ionger, but, I do_ltke those set with Rhine stones. Mother thinks the plain ones are prettier, but Masie Newton's look than hers. At several counters she had stopped, she had noticed an elderly lady stand. ing near her. This time she felt that she was observed, and as she folded her shopping list and tucked it into her bag, she heard a voice accosting | her. “I notice you have finished your purchases. Are you in a hurry, or can | you give me a litte time? J have left | my spectacles at hore, and am so help- | less without them. Would you be will- ing to go about with me, and let me have vou aid in selecting some things I want to buy? Ruth cheerfully as- sured the old lady that she had plenty of time at her disposal, and would be glad to help her if she could. So the round of the store was repeated, and patterns in the goods offered them. ‘When the noon hour came, her new friend insisted on Ruth's taking lunch with her, and a dainty repast was ordered. The friendliness shown her induced Ruth to confide in her new friend as to the successful outcome of the egg money, and some facts leaked out concerning her home and the hap- py life there. “Why didn't yeu take combs, may I venture to ask, when you were spending your own money ?” in: quired her companion who had given || her name as Mrs. Alton. Ruth teld her story frankly, adding: “I have plenty of combs, bui fancied those.” “Well, "you have helped me very greatly, and I want to leave you & souvenir of our short acquaintance. Please let me give you those combs, and give me your address if you: will You say you often come into town. I find it very irksome to do so. I wonder if you wouldn't be willing to do an oe- casional errard for me as a favor.” Ruth readily agreed to do so , and gave the address desired. In return she receive d Mrs. Alton's residence ‘which she wrote down carefully and tucked away safely with the other con- tents of her shopping-bag. Ruth was in plenty of time to meet her father at the appointed hour, and enjoyed telling him all the events of her happy day. On reaching home they ‘were Tepeated for her mother’s beneflt, and her purchases displayed for her approval, which was cheerfully given. “You have shown good judgment, Ruth,” said her mother. ‘I am sure 1 could not have done better myself, but who was your new friend?” Then the name and adddress were producedat which her mother exclaimed in won- der: “Why, she is a very wealthy wo- man, who has a_ lovely residence for a summer home. How strange that she should notice you, but probably you will never hear from her again, so don’t exepet it.” But she did hear from her before long. The lady in question called at the farm to express her gratitude for Ruth's help, and repeatedly sent her commissions to attenq in town. “You have a very capable and lovable daughter.” she said one day to Mrs. Rogers. “Has she ever desired further education in any line?” Mrs. Rogers was forced to admit that they had not been able to satis- £y her wish for further instruction in music, for which she seemed to have more talent than for any other accomp- lishment. “She can play very well on the piano nova but does not feel satis- fied In that direction.” “Let me do that for her,” begged her guest “You know I have no daughter, and I am very much attached to Ruth, It would be a real favor to me to al- low me to do so. After consultation with Ruth's fath- er, the matter was arranged, and Ruth was to spend the following winter in Mrs. Alton’s citv home, and devote | her time to music. How happy the ! decision made Ruth need not be sald. In spite of fears of homesickness she gratefully accepted the offer. and thereby enabled herself to gain employ- | ment ‘as teacher of music in & school near her own home. A generous sal- ary made it possible for her to render life in old age easler for her parents and furnish them aid which she could | not have given them by remaining in | the home nest. A long way from side-combs, you may think, but Ruth traces it all back to the day when she earned her side- combs, and _thereby made acquaint- ance with Mrs. Alton. AN IDLER.

Prowlers by the wharves will notice certain marks painted on the hulls of vessels awalting cargo. These indicate the depth to which a craft may be weighted down by its burden. Since the time of the English merchant Samuel Plimsoll, father of ths mer- chant shipping act of 1876, marmers must observe the limits of safety. The capacity of each Vessel is a matter of computation. It is a crime to send a ship to sea overloaded. It is with men as with ships. The burdens they must carry have appro- priate limits. The great Commander has guaged the capacity of each craft in the human fleet. Was not that the apostle’s meaning when he said. “God is faithful who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able.” We should be disoosed to credit the Almighty, both with wisdom, and be- nevolence, He seeks to lay no impos- sible burden on the sons of men. The weight imposed on the Individual life is only such as it is able to carry. That fact, however, is by no means always apparent. There are people all about us taxed with excessive burdens. Look at the overtasking of many of the world’s workers: Engineers and signalmen on the stretch for 12 and 14 hours, breaker boys aroused in the gray dawn for the long shift in the mines; little girls in the tenements sewing on endless garments, when they ought to be sleeping or at play. The world is full of excessive and un- required toil. But, at least, let us remember that this is not the will of God. He has not fastened these weights upon men. They have put them on each other. Our human greed, laziness and cruel- ty, are responsible for the overload- ing of the lives of our fellows. “Man's inhumanity to man” it is that makes these ‘“countless thousands mourn.” In the good time coming when gospel | principles really shall have worked justice shall be done away with. Sometimes we overload ourselves. Many a life craft is sailing across the sea of time with decks almost awash and_ ready to sink through carrying needless burdens.
