THE FOLLY OF SELFISHNESS.
Nikola Tesla Points Good Moral with Good Story.
To Nicola Tesla, whose telautomatic torpedo promises to put an end to war, a friend said to-day:
"There is this invention of Smith, and there is this invention of Jones, and there is the other invention of Robinson. In all these inventions yours was the leading hand. Without you they would never have been patented; without you they would never even have been thought of. And yet you get no credit for them. Why are you content to get no credit for some of the most marvelous discoveries of the age?"
Mr. Tesla smiled.
"That the inventions have materialized; that they benefit mankind, is enough," he said. "I am not selfish. My name is honored. I live well. Why, then, should I be so hungry for a little more money, a little more renown?" He smiled again. "Why should I be like," he said, "the millionaire butcher of my native town of Smiljan?
"This butcher was a bachelor, and, when he became a millionaire, he bought a magnificent equipage—two prancing black horses, a set of silvermounted harness, a coachman in livery, and so forth—and every day he drove proudly through the town.
"But he always drove alone. He never had any one with him. So, one day, the priest of the parish said:
"Why, my good man, do you always ride alone in your grand coach? Why do you never take any of your friends out with you?"
"The millionaire frowned.
"If there were two of us,' he replied, 'no one would know who the team belonged to.'"
DIDN'T AGREE WITH HER.
Patient Had Her Bgef Tea All Right, but Somehow—
This story was told by an old physician, who had practiced for nearly fifty years in a small country town. One day he was summoned to a farmhouse, where he found a woman in a high fever and evidently exceedingly ill. He said to her husband, who was the only other person in the house:
"Your wife is very sick, and must have nothing to eat except milk and beef tea, but I want you to give her a cup of one or the other every two hours." When he came the next morning and asked about his patient her husband said:
"That beef tea don't agree with her, doctor. It certainly don't. She began to feel bad as soon as she took it."
"That's odd," said the doctor. "You didn't give her any little bits of the meat in it, did you?"
"No, sir; I strained it first on account of the grounds."
"Grounds!" roared the doctor. "What did you make that beef tea out of?" "Corn beef and the best green tea. I boiled 'em together all yesterday afternoon to get the strength out. But it don't agree with her, doctor. It certainly don't."—Montreal Herald.
Growing Old.
The stress and toll of life are past;
And I may take mine ease at last;
Quiet and peace my friends shall be,
To share my heartstone reverie;
My latter days shall be my best;
Ample the guerdom of my quest.
The rosy breaking of the dawn.
The noontide shadows on the lawn.
THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.
Sweet home, where love's dear blossoms grow
Ah, what may be more fair than these The hungry heart of man to please? Here now shall end ambition's flight. The toll of youth, strong manhood's fight; Long years the fruit of these I sought; The world hath now its tribute brought, Come, joy of life, with me abide. My soul's desire is satisfied.
My son, my son, it may not be,
Thine is a larger destiny;
More vast than all this world can give
Thy lot, when thou shalt fully live.
Within thy soul a spark of fire
I hid, which shall, with new desire,
Flame forth when I thine eyes unseal.
Heaven's undreamed questings to reveal.
Thou art not old! Thou hast outworn
The apparel which thy soul hath borne;
It hampers thee; when I shall give
New raliment, thou more free shalt live;
New-fledged thy spirit shall aspire
To larger flights, nor ever tire.
Too highborn then to sit at ease
Where fading earthly treasures please;
Couldst thou but know toward what they
tend—
tend—
Ah, no, my child, there is no end!
—Henry N. Dodge, in Christian Advocate.
Two Kitchen Comforts.
I find my two best kitchen friends are a high stool and a camp chair; cost $1. The high stool saves strength and rests the feet when employed in the ceaseless round of washing dishes. So many women stand to peel potatoes or apples, while I find it a great pleasure to sit in my camp chair and lean back. It is very light and can be easily lifted to the handiest place in the kitchen or carried to the open air. Then, again, I sit in my camp chair by my blue flame when frying fritters or doing the many things which need almost constant attention. Offtimes I can have paper, magazine or book in hand, but with the nose and ears so close the cooking can be attended to even if the eyes and mind are otherwise engaged. —Brown Book.
Damages for Lessened "Capacity." Louis Gurber, a Philadelphia musician, sued a street railway company for injuries sustained through the derailing of a car. He wanted $5,000. On the stand, he declared that previous to his injuries he was able to drink fifty or sixty glasses of beer a day, but that now the best he can do is less than twenty. The court inquired gravely: "Would that be claimed as an element of damage" Gurber's counsel thought it ought to be, and apparently the jury thought so, too, for the plaintiff was given a verdict of $1,600 on account of his reduced capacity.
"Fibious" Alligators.
Hugh O. Pentecost relates with great glee a little incident which came under his observation during a trip in Florida. "We were driving up to the hotel in a stage," said he, "when we passed a bayou on the bank of which several alligators were visible. One of the passengers, who was evidently in pursuit of useful information, said to the driver, "Are those alligators amphibious?" "Yes, sah, said the darkey; "fibious as hell, sah. Whole shote at one moufful, sah."—New York Times.
Too Many to Remember.
A gentleman about to move out of the city and wishing information in regard to help called on a friend and said:
"You've been living in the suburbs so long I suppose you've had considerable experience with servant girls?"
"Well, yes," replied the other. "It's got so that when my wife is interviewing an applicant now she always begins by asking: 'Were you ever employed by me before? If so, when and for how long?'—Philadelphia Ledger.

How to Lose a Case.
A lawyer, pleading the case on an infant plaintiff, took the child, suffused with tears, in his arms, and presented it to the jury. This had a great effect until the lawyer of the opposite side asked what made him cry. "He pinched me," answered the little innocent.
Golden bells of welcome rolled
Never forth such notes, nor told
Hours so blithe in tones so bold,
As the radiant mouth of gold
Here that rings forth heaven.
If the golden-crested wren
Were a nightingale—why, then,
Something seen and heard of men
Might be half as sweet as when
Laughs a child of seven.

EMBLEMS OF NATIONS
FLOWERS GIVEN HIGH PLACE OF HONOR.
Goldenrod the Most Popular In the United States—Some Stories as to the Reason of the Adoption of Countries' Choices.
The flower of our country is popularly supposed to be the goldenrod Some years ago when the choice of a national flower was left for the children in the public schools to decide by vote the choice fell to the wild rose. But nine people out of every ten would tell you that the goldenrod was the one decided upon, and that flower is perhaps best suited for the purpose, for it abounds in all parts of the United States and is rarely found in any other country.
In England in the fourteenth century the national flower was the broom, or planta genista. It was not till the reign of Henry VI. that the national emblem came to be the rose. The story of Ireland's shamrock is a very pretty one. St. Patrick was one day preaching at Tara trying to explain the doctrine of the Trinity. Plucking a shamrock which was peep-
up through the turf at his feet, he said, "Do you not see these three leaves on the one stalk? Such is the doctrine of the Great Three in One." From that time the shamrock was the national emblem of Ireland. The tale of the Scotch thistle is a very different one. In the reign of Malcolm, in the year 1010, the Danes swooped down upon the coast of Aberdeenshire by night, intending to surround and storm the great fortress of Stalnes. The first instalment crept up barefooted and dropped into the moat, but they found they were not in water at all. The moat was dry and covered with a great growth of thistles, which stung their unprotected feet and caused them to cry out unmercifully. The sound roused the sentinels, and in a moment a voley was fired upon the Danes, who broke and fled. From this fact the thistle was given its high place in the esteem of the Scotchmen.
France is the only country which allows a flower to appear in its national heraldry. But the fleur-de-lis, or three lilies, is so different from most flowers that it does not seem out of place on the national coat of arms. Canada has adopted the scarlet maple leaf, which makes miles of her woods blaze in autumn. The Japanese have the chrysanthemum, and fittingly, toc for the island is the birthplace of this gorgeous flower. From earliest time Greece has had the fragrant narcissus and the pomegranate blossom has been the floral emblem of Spain. Switzerland claims that flower most difficult of all to pick, the edelweiss.
Hints for Christmas Gifts.
Ribbon work on muslin is very popular at present, and in the various country houses one sees very pretty specimens of it, cushion and satin nightdress case covers, table centers, bed coverlids and afternoon teacolths, as well as smaller things, such as handkerchief, glove, vell and tie cases and lavender sachets.
Soft book muslin is used, and one of the favorite designs is scattered violets with a spray or cluster at one or more corners, according to fancy, says the Queen. The stalks and leaves are done in silks or crewels. To those who like the work designs will suggest themselves. The cushion covers may have frills or not. The other things are usually edged with a fall of imitation Valenciennes lace over a fall of this colored s'ik. Monograms or initial letters are also carried out in the ribbon work. "Baby" on a coverlid in forget-me-nots or rosebuds has a very pretty effect.
Adjourned Court to Milk Cow.
Judge John F. Oliver of Sioux Ciqty was trying a case in which the ownership of a Jersey cow was disputed. Some of the more important evidence related to the cow's disposition while being milked, the testimony on this point being conflicting. His honor calmly adjourned court, proceeded to the barn where the animal was being kept and in true farmer style milked the cow himself. The result of this practical experiment left him in no doubt as to the rights of the case, which he decided at once on reopening court.
Oasis in Death Valley.
Gov. Sparks of Nevada and some other wealthy men intend to establish an oasis in Death valley, seventy-five miles south Goldfield, for the benefit of travle. Artesion wells will transform it, and it is to be stocked with game.

ORIGIN OF THE CADET GRAY.
First Worn by Regulars Under General Scott in War of 1812.
"Cadet gray," the uniform worn by the cadets of the United States Military Academy at West Point, was suggested by the act of General Winfield Scot in adopting it for a body of troops under his command.
While stationed at Buffalo, in the summer of 1814, General Scott wrote to the quartermaster for a new supply of clothing for the regulars. Word soon came back that blue cloth, such as used in the army, could not be obtained, owing to the stringency of the blockade and the lack of manufacturers in the country, but that there was sufficient gray cloth—now known as "cadet gray"—in Philadelphia. Scott ordered it made up for his soldiers and in these new gray suits they marched down the Niagara river on the Canada side, in the direction of Chippewa. It was just before the battle known by that name, which occurred early in July.
General Raill, the British commander, looked upon them with contempt when preparing for battle on the morning of the 5th, for the Marquis of Tweedale, who, with the British advance, had skirmished with them all the day before, had reported that they were only a "Buffalo militia" and accounted for their fighting so well and driving him into his intrenchments north of the Chippewa river by the fact that it was the anniversary of American independence that stimulated them.
On account of the victory won at Chippewa that day, chiefly by these soldiers in gray, and in honor of Scott and his troops, that style of cloth was adopted at the military academy at West Point as the uniform of the cadets.
THE AFTER-DINNER ORATOR.
English Innovation Has Many Good Points to Recommend it.
A London club, the Bartholomew, gave its annual banquet the other day. The postprandial orators were conspicuous by their silence. Not a speech was made. When the banquet had reached the oratorical stage little books were distributed among the guests and in these booklets were printed the speeches of the gentlemen who had accepted invitations to respond to toasts. London Truth says this banquet was an epoch-making affair. It was certainly a unique one and not unworthy of imitation on this side of the Atlantic. The Bartholomew club of London has established a precedent which ought not to be ignored in the United States because of its English origin. The banquet is entitled to some consideration and should be protected when the after-dinner orator, like the brook, is inclined to "go on forever." In congress a speaker is "given permission to print," and really never delivers his speech. The plan might work well at banquets.
Quakers Leave London.
For the first time since 1762 the annual meeting of the Society of Friends, the Quakers, will be held, this year, outside of London. The "allurements of London" have, it appears, proved too much for the degenerate delegates of the present day. "Why," said a Quaker of high standing, "Friends, members of old Quaker families, have been known to drive up to the meeting house in motor cars!"

His regular occupation is that of professor of economics and history at Atlanta University. His education was acquired at Harvard University, Fisk University and the University of Berlin Nature has endowed him with a pen literally dipped in fire and a more impassioned plea for the cause of the race has never been written.

MACKEREL NOW A LUXURY.
Annual Catch of 15,000 Barrels Against 430,000 in 1831.
"Mackerel has become a luxury beyond the means of the poorer classes," said Henry Barnes of Sandy Hook, Mass., to the Milwaukee Free Press. "For sixteen years the fishery of mackerel has been on the decline and salt mackerel has risen in price. The movements of the fish are wrapped in mystery and so are the causes of the failing supply. The government fishery department is no better off in this knowledge than the old fishermen who have followed the schools up and down the coast until their hair has grown as white as the foam-capper waves. This much we know. In the early part of March, the fish in greater or less numbers struck the southern coast, in the vicinity of Cape Henry; by the middle of April the schools reached the capes of Delaware and slowly advanced past Barnegat and Sandy Hook. About the middle of May a school arrived off Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.
From the size and general character of the fish composing the school it was apparent that they did not belong to the great littoral schools which advanced from the south and it was presumed they came from somewhere to the eastward in the deep sea. The schools often disappear entirely from certain localities and leave no sign, but it is believed their movements are practically the same now as in 1820, the date when mackerel fishing assumed importance. The banner year of the mackerel fishery was the season of 1831, when 430,000 barrels were salted in New England. Of late years 13,000 to 15,000 barrels has been the catch."
ALL IN POINT OF VIEW.
Impromptu Sermon Delivered Bishop Potter.
Bishop Potter and a fellow clergyman on a fine May evening came down Fifth avenue on foot. Their talk turned upon psychology; but both were in the mood for an intellectual frolic rather than serious discussion. The bishop was exceptionally happy. Nearing the park at Madison Square he observed:
"We can be certain of nothing prompted by our own reflections, and while Thoreau once remarked that the Almighty did not create the world in jest there still remains for us a bewilderment resembling it. Fortunately our faith resists appearances; otherwise what might we not say of the scenes before us? Over the Flatiron building in the sky the moon looks like an arc light, merely; while the building in the night is itself a great towering cliff, yet, were we as far away as the seeming arc light we couldn't see the Flatiron at all. A small point of light, that star seems—no larger than the head of a pin; yet that point of light is one million times larger than our sun, which not only increases our respect for the size of the head on a pin, but causes us to doubt whether we can justify our own impressions by logical means."—New York Times.
Writes Letters to Himself.
"Tying a string around the finger as a reminder is the old method of keeping tab on a rascally memory," said a downtown man as he tossed a pile of letters into the basket on the desk. "I have an improvement on it" he
added, pointing to the basket. "All those letters you see there are addressed to me. I wrote the letters myself. I didn't dictate them to my stenographer. I wrote them.
"Looks idiotic, doesn't it? I have the most uncertain memory of any man in New York, I do believe. Whatever I have to do to-morrow is reduced to a letter. The letter is mailed the last thing in the afternoon. I get it on the following morning.
"You might think I would make memorandum of what I have to do. That wouldn't win. I would throw it away and forget it. When I get my own letter, that fixes in my mind whatever is mentioned so that I cannot forget. I find that this is the only certain check."
Gave the Countersign.
"A negro just naturally loves a watermelon," said Representative Johnson of South Carolina, while speaking of the melon and peach crop. Strange, too, that when a policeman sees a negro with a melon at an unseasonable hour he has it right down that that coon has stolen the melon. I heard a story about a policeman who met a negro in the early morning hours, and he had a big melon on his shoulder. The officer eyed the coon and the melon, and said: "I see you have a melon there."
"Yes, sah," answered the darky. "I'se got er melon, but I'se fixed fer you, sah," and pulling out a paper he handed it to the officer, who read:
"The bearer of this is O. K. He paid me ten cents for the melon, and he is a pillar in the church James Elder."
"You are fixed,'" commented the policeman.
"Dat's what I 'lowed,' answered the negro, and he moved."—Philadelphia Ledger.
Japanese Celebrate Victory.
When the news of the great Japanese naval victory reached Pittsburg, a company of acrobats from the island empire was appearing afternoon and evening in a circus. On being assured of the Russian overthrow they promptly went on strike for a day, positively refusing to work. Instead they proceeded to decorate the city a vivid red, carefully refraining from any breach of the law.

ARE YOU ENGAGED?
Engaged p ople should remember
that after marriage, many quarrels
can be avoided by keeping their di-
gestions in good condition with Elec-
tric Bitters. S, A. Brown, of Ben-
nettsville, S. C., says: “For years my
wife suffered intensely from dyspep-
sia, complicated with a torpid liver,
until she lost her strength and vigor,
and became a mere wreck of her form
er self, Then she tried Electric Bit-
ters which helped her at once and fi-
nally made her entirely well. She is
‘now strong and healthy.” Jas. Hul-

Shrine Attracts British.
A hatter in New York has a shrine
to which many Englishmen are re-
pairing. It is a recently arrived re-
production of the fitting block for
the hats of King Edward VII. It
shows that the head of the king is
large and well shaped, is oval, with-
out the least lump. “It is the most
capable head in England,” said the
hatter with pride,
No Is Unique.
“It seems odd that the English
alphabet out of which can be con-
structed several thousanis of words,
contains just one word formed by the
letters in their present order,” re
marked the observant young map.
That word is ‘No.’
“You can look the alphabet over,
and you won't find another combina
tion of vowel and consonant charac.
ters that will form a word.
“The nearest approach is ‘Ab,’ which
by straining a point might be conaid-
ered an abbreviation of ‘Abraham,’ or
‘Hi,’ which might answer as short for
‘Hiram.’ But ‘No,’ one of the short
est words in the language, is the
only bonafide word formed tn the
arrangement of the alphabet’s twenty-
six characters.”—Philadelphia Record
Audacity Won Emperor's Favor.
One of Emperor Wililam’s favorites
is a young man named Doerflinger, «
theological student, says Ambassador
Charlemagne Tower. He found his
way to the war lord’s friendship in an
interesting manner, William. walking
one day in the street near the palace,
met the student and said to him ab.
ruptly: “Where do you come from?”
“Tam. a Berliner, was the reply.
“Pshaw!" sald the emperor, “the Ber
liners are good for nothing.” “J
know two Berlin boys who are excep-
tions to that rule,” returned the stu
dent. “Whom?” “Your majesty and
myself.” The emperor commanded
him to attend at the palace.

Churchill's Studied Rudeness.
Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill
of Ipgland ts now 30. In five years
he has been through two campaigns—
those in the Sudan and South Africa
—has been a prisoner of the Boers
only to make a sensational escape,
has written half a dozen noteworthy
books, !s the fiercest and one of the
most effective of Chamberlain's politi-
cal foes, has an unrivaled power of
rudeness and can boast of being one of
the best-hated men in British poll-
tics. He is equipped with a mind and
manner comparable with that of Dis-
raell. Here is an example of hig rude-
ness: In a recent spescn he sald:
“The other day a cabinet minister—

out sneer which brought down the
house—“really, gentlemen, how could
I get through my work {f I had+to

THE HAND OF LINCOLN.
BY EDMUND CLARENCE STEDMAN.
The subject of this poem is a plaster cast of Abraham Lincoln's hand. It is now in the National Museum at Washington. Atlas, according to the old mythology, was a man on whose shoulders the whole weight of the earth rested. According to the Bible, Anak was the ancestor of a race of giants.
OOK on this cast, and know the hand
That bore a nation in its hold;
From this mute witness understand
What Lincoln was—how large of mould
The man who sped the woodman's team,
And deepest sunk the ploughman's share,
And pushed the laden raft astream,
Of fate before him unaware.
This was the hand that knew to swing
The axe—since thus would freedom train
Her son—and made the forest ring,
And drove the wedge, and toiled amain.
Firm hand, that loftier office took,
A conscious leader's will obeyed,
And, when men sought his word and look,
With steadfast might the gathering swayed.
No courtier's, toying with a sword,
Nor minstrel's, laid across a lute;
A chief's, uplifted to the Lord
When all the kings of earth were mute!
The hand of Anak, sinewed strong,
The fingers that on greatness clutch;
Yet, lo! the marks their lines along
Of one who strove and suffered much.
For here, in knotted cord and vein,
I trace the varying chart of years;
I know the troubled heart, the strain,
The weight of Atlas—and the tears.
Again I see the patient brow
That palm erewhile was wont to press;
And now 'tis furrowed deep, and now
Made smooth with hope and tenderness.
For something of a formless grace
This moulded outline plays about;
A pitying flame, beyond our trace,
Breathes like a spirit, in and out.
The love that cast an aureole
Round one who, longer to endure,
Called mirth to ease his ceaseless dole,
Yet kept his nobler purpose sure.
Lo, as I gaze, the statured man,
Built up from yon large hand, appears:
A type that Nature wills to plan
But once in all a people's years.
What better than this voiceless cast
To tell of such a one as he,
Since through its living semblance passed
The thought that bade a race be free!

RATTLER MESSENGER TO TRIBE.
Seminoles Accept Serpent's Coming to Council as Augury. Great consternation was created among the members of the Seminole council at Wewoka, says a Muskogee (I. T.) telegram to the Kansas City Star, when a large rattlesnake glided into the tent where the assemblage was being addressed by the attorney of the nation, Capt. A. J. McKennon.

Capt. McKennon was about to kill the snake when one of the councilmen stopped him, explaining in broken English: "Him rattlesnake; he come to Seminole council; no other snake do that. He sent by Great Spirit. He go south; that mean Mexico. We must all go Mexico soon." The captain was told that the rattlesnake had long been a messenger to the Seminole tribe from the Great Spirit. They told him that just be-

opportunities in the most barren and out-of-the-way places. Bunyan found opportunity in Bedford jail to write the greatest allegory in the world on the untwisted paper that had been used to cork his bottles of milk. A Theodore Parker or a Lucy Stone sees an opportunity to go to college in a chance to pick berries. One boy sees an opening to his ambition in a chance to chop wood, wait on table, or run errands, where another sees no chance at all. One sees an opportunity to get an education in the odds and ends of time, evenings and half-holidays, which another throws away. O. S. Marden in Success Magazine.
Dowager Empress of China.
A wonderful woman is the dowager empress of China. She is a picture of vigor, with piercing black eyes, jet black hair and pretty little hands, whose nails, several inches long, are protected by golden shields like elongated thimbles. Tsi An is very vain of these hands, which, according to Chinese notions, are extremely beautiful; and she is equally proud of her long hair, which she parts in front and brushes over her ears, Manchu fashion. At dinner she eats with gold chopsticks, talks much and smokes a little.

For catalogue and particular, write
fore their fight with Jackson, in the south many moons ago, a great rattlesnake crawled from the bank of a lake and came into camp. The medicine men assembled and told the members of the tribe that great trouble was about to come upon them. They would have a great fight, and as the snake went west a part of the tribe would be driven west. They said that the rattlesnake had been looked upon as a messenger ever since. Capt. McKennon apologized for attempting to kill the messenger from the Great Spirit, and appeased the anger of the council by giving the members a box of cigars.
BE ON WATCH FOR CHANCES.
Writer Points Out Danger of Opportunities Being Invisible.
It is a dangerous thing to wait for opportunities until it becomes a habit. Energy and inclination for hard work ooze out in the waiting. Opportunity becomes invisible to those who are doing nothing, or looking somewhere else for it. It is the great worker, the man who is alert for chances that sees them.
Some people become so opportunity-blind that they cannot see chances anywhere—they would pass through a gold mine without noticing anything precious—while others will find

BUTTE, MONT.
Last week was one of sorrow in this
city owing to an accident that oc-
carred at the intersection of Utah and
Tron streets, by a freight train back-
ing intoa trolly car of oné hundred
passengers of which ten lost their
lives. Two of the number were col-
ored, Mesdames Josephine Jacobs
and Sadie Smith. These women were
among Butte’s most highly and re-
spected citizens. Mrs. Smith had
been a zealous worker in the A. M. E.
Chuach from childhood and organist
for a number of years, Mrs. Jacobs
has resided in Butte since 1895, and
was untiring inher efforts towards
the advancements of the Church of
Christ. Neither could not be excelled
in anything they undertook for the
church but were not members of any
church. The funeral services were
held from the A. M. E. Church Wed-
nesday afternoon at 3:30. The ser-
vices were very impressive. The
choir was in charge of Mrs. C. P.
Smith and as two white caskets were
borne to the altar, preceded by the
minister, the organist, Mrs, Jackson,
played softly “Flee as a Bird.”
It was a sad yet beautiful sight ow-
ing to the elaborate display of floral
offerings contributed by relatives and
friends of the departed ones.
IN MEMORY OF MbS, SADIE SMITH.
Thy fingers that were so active here,
To play upon God’s instrument to
ehoer;
The hearts of those that sorrow filled
By the grim monster death they are
stilled.
But, when from the celestial choir
tbove
The Savior shall delegate the heaven-
ly dove
To go to yonder world below
And say to Sadie, sleep no more.

By the Bozeman, Moutana, Chronicle, we see that Alzamon Ira Lucas has opened up an office in that city and asks that the public call upon him and hear him on health, success and happiness, in so far as they are subject to natural laws. He is a hustler and is going forward boldly teaching his belief. In his own words, "You—the present day—will know that I have truths that will be known while I live—not one hundred years after my so-called death, that will lead into temptation any insane person in the future to pass the hat and place a stone and flowers over a covered hole in the ground."
