Power in C Achievement is less a matter of natural ability and external circumstance than of the habitual mental attitude. Success, happiness and accomplishment of all kinds are born of confidence, buoyance and faith. Discontent, self-distrust and hesitancy are all cankers, eating into every part of life and destroying force and perfection at every point. There is a peculiar potency in belief in one's own power. This need have no element of egotism in it, only a steadfast trust in one's self. Yet, even childish self-conceit is better than weak depreciation but more painful muscle resulting. To believe in one's own success, to think and act always with confident assurance that it is possible to do anything and all things that one desires to do—such an Surgeon W. H. Bucher of the navy, stationed on Olongapo, P. L., has made an interesting report to the navy department regarding "certain peculiar physical results of prolonged service in the Philippines." "There are certain changes," he says, "that take place in those individuals who are compelled to live here which are worthy of noting. Some show evidences of this change early, while in others it does not appear until considerable time has elapsed. It comes to all, however, in greater or less degree. The first symptom is loss of memory and, he necessity of using a note book to jot down almost everything. About the same time an indifference, so common among the natives, makes inroads on the foreigner, and a daily battle against 'mananna' tendency is necessary to keep it from interfering with his duties.

Of these more than one-half were due to a failure to obey orders. Many of them made mistakes in writing or reading orders, or forgot them altogether. A full 'tenth' was due to men who simply fell asleep in sheer neglect of their work. In all, this made two-thirds of these accidents due to the personal failure of some man to do what he was told. This runs through all work. The great mass of accidents and of disasters, fully two-thirds and often more, are due to the fact that some man or some woman has failed to obey or remember an order. It is success for life to have the habit of being attentive to safety, to remember or remember it being the instant will to obey. Nothing is rarer. "The death in Kentucky the other day of that brilliant orator and lawyer, Col. W. C. P. Breckinridge, reminded me of one of his curious mannersisms as a public speaker," said a man from another state, "and it was one of those peculiar things which, until we become accustomed to it, will annoy and disconcert us. Of course, in the case of the Kentuckian in question the bad effect of this mannerism was soon lost. His eloquence was of the kind to make one forget all else but what he was saying. You simply heard the silver voice of the man and hung on the wall, wailing sentences in vain any good fortune to hear Col. Breckinridge on a number of occasions. I heard him as a lecturer, heard him as a lawyer, heard him in congress and heard him where he always seemed to be at his best, in the rough and tumble debates of a heated campaign. But no matter what role he played, for the one little peculiarity I have in mind was always present. It was That alcoholism in Russia is widely treated with success by hypomission is asserted by the writer of a note in Cosmos. The method has been adopted in government institutions, but it is believed that the peculiar adaptability of the Russians to this mode of treatment is largely responsible for its good effects. Says the writer. "The cure of alcoholism by means of hypomission is the order of the day. Recently Dr. Legrain communicated to the Society of Hypnology and Psychology some very interesting information regarding the treatment of alcoholics by hypomotion in Russia. In the cities of St. Petersburg, Moscow, Jaroslav, Kieff, Saratoff and Astrakhan there have been established for several years, under government auspices, dispensaries to which the sufferers resort by hundreds, and where hypomission is the principal, if not the sole, therapeutic agent.

There is nothing of this nature that will make hard work unnecessary. But hard work, vivified by the electric current of faith and triumphant confidence, will be multiplied in effect as if by magic.

Among the enlisted force that arrives many are of unstable nervous organizations, and in the process of degeneration these people follow the lines of least resistance. Alcoholism, excessive use of tobacco and other excesses, and the train of unfortunate symptoms following this habit has no doubt been noted by others with longer experience than mine. While all these illuses cannot be attributed to the climate and environments, there is a frequency in their occurrence, and a mannen about the way in which they are committed that is different from that seen elsewhere in these islands down to two years, and I thoroughly believe that observations will prove that even two years is too long for a white man to maintain his health in this climate." Our common school education does not teach children to obey implicit. Pupils are coaxed into obedience. They are marked for failures. They are disciplined for flat refusals, but scaredly anything in the routine of the school leads to the habit of instant, unfalling, immediate, unquestioning obedience to an order, because it is an order, without stopping else can be done beside doing as one is to do. Every business man and every employer knows that teaching this is the first task to which he addresses himself when a boy or girl comes from school and begins their first work for wages. Generally, if they come from an American family, neither in the school nor in the family have they ever learned what it is to obey an order. It is a fault in our national life which writes itself in accidents every day in the year and to which we have been exposed a gross proportion of fatal accidents in this country as compared to all the rest of the world. in the way he stood while speaking. As a rule he made but few gestures. His hands were generally hanging locked in front of him. He had the habit of throwing one foot out to the fore, and his body back, so that his weight would seem to rest on the heel of the hindmost foot. This was precisely the thing that annoyed me when I first heard Col. Brecknell. He would throw his body back in an angle which seemed to threaten his balance. For a while I could not get away from the idea that he was in constant danger of sprawling on the floor on his back. He was apparently out of plumb, if you will allow me to put it. He机械地 fear someone as away as I became interested in what the speaker was saying and finally I would not notice it at all.

This is perhaps to ask of them a colossal effort, since their will power has generally been destroyed; but they are obliged to accept a continual surveillance, and it is attempted to ameliorate their conditions of life as much as possible. The alcoholic drinker is often in Russia; but, as has often been remarked, the French drinker is much less tractable, and consequently the cure of alcohols in France is much more difficult and much less, durable than in Russia; with us, in fact, the alcoholic poisons himself with essences as various as they are injurious, and it is only exceptionally that he submits to treatment for a long enough time to effect a lasting change in his health, the present time hypnosis is almost the sole means of cure for alcoholic mania".—Literary Direct. Roundun—At Clubhouse on Bluff Overlooking Ormond-Daytona Beach, Florida. The Lineup—Twenty-two Automobiles Abreast at Ormond-Daytona Beach, Flor Ida. The condition of the Ormond-Dayona beach this winter is magnificent; according to old residents it was never better. Being entirely different information from the Northern beaches, or in fact, any other beach in the world, has been the cause of its great reputation. Its sand is composed largely of the shells of the coquina clam, peculiar to this part of Florida. This shell is hard, with both beak and very skin. For ages nature has been rolling them up, washing them back into the surf and pulverizing them. Examined under the microscope, each particle is bound, unfit for mortar, buildings say, because its smoothness prevents it from holding together; yet, strange to contemplate, the very moment a wave eaves the wet, apparently soft beach, these round particles settle down into a cement almost as hard as asphalt, beyond the comprehension of one who has not seen it. Surely it must have been made for the automobile, for repairs, for no mud, no dust, tires never heated owing to the moisture, and an exploded tire is unknown. Here, too, the great dangers of road and track racing are entirely eliminated, and Roundup—At Clubhouse man can never build a road as hard and smooth. Repairs are unnecessary, as twice each twenty-four hours it is entirely rebuilt by the tides. Immense holes may be dug, but the next tide hides every trace. Being almost level and with an average rise and fall of only two feet nine inches at extreme low tide, this beach is from three hundred to five hundred feet wide and can be used from two hours, after until two hours before high tide, thus giving an average of seven to eight hours for automobiling some part of each day. J. F. Hathaway, the veteran autoist, familiarly called the father of the Florida beach racing, who suggested and organized the Florida East Coast Automobile association, under whose auspices the Ormond-Daytona beach tournaments have developed a worldwide reputation, is located here for the winter. In the motor cars ever seen in Florida, and had many queer experiences with the native crackers, who at that time were very much opposed to these "new-fangled machines." One whose horse he had frightened, called his automobile a "hell cart," and threatened to shoot him if he did not get it out of town in a hurry. Behold the developments! This man still resides here and now runs a motor car himself, and tries to ride on the beach something wrong with the reversing gear, and the car backed into the ocean, where it remained until his old reliable white horse called "Rock of Ages" pulled it out. In the meantime some boys printed a placard, "Rock of Ages I cling to the," and fastened it on the rear of the automobile greatly to the rear of the car, and the man, Mr. H. M. Flagger, Florida's liberal benefactor, became interested in mo- tor cars during the past summer in the White mountains, and has a new steam touring car of a popular make, and has also ordered a heavy gasoline car. Recently white on his way south on a special train, he stopped at Ormond and accepted an invitation to ride down the beach in Mr. Hathaway's automobile, having been promised to beat his train to the Daytona station, which was done by two min- --- utes, notwithstanding the fact that the distance by the beach is more than a mile farther than by railroad. He expressed himself as having had the most delightful ride of his life and said: "Now I understand why the automobilists are so enthusiastic over the beach." C. G. Burgoyne of Dayton, who has been indefatigable in his efforts to make the club a success, has visited his health, Mr. Edward M. Steick, the well-known auteur of Philadelphia, his successor, has purchased a beautiful winter home in Dayton, and with his family is located here for the season. He owns a fine touring car and has entered his eighty-horse power Darrac for the races. Great changes have taken place here during the past five years, and there are more automobiles in Dayton now than in any other town of its population in the world. During the past summer the Florida East Coast Auto Association has introduced an attractive and commons clubhouse on the beach directly opposite the half-way post of the twenty-mile course. The club has a membership of two hundred, and among ermond-Daytona Beach, Florida. se on Bluff Overlooking Ormond-Dale them many prominent and well-known people: W. K. Vanderbilt, Jr. H. M. Flinger, Howard Gould, John Jacob Astor and many others. Daytona has erected two new hotels, and nearly all of the twenty others have made extensive improvements, and all will be filled. At Ormond three hundred men have been busy on the addition to the great hotel and a new railroad bridge across the Halifax river so that passenger trains can run to the very portals of the hotel. A large garage has been erected with all modern conveniences, and a chauffeur's clubhouse, with a comfortable clubroom and thirty sleeping rooms. At the hotel on the beach substantial additions and improvements have been made in preparation for the rush of the races." Literature and the Beast. The tendency toward animalism in the literature of to-day is thus commented on in an editorial in The World To-Day: It is not merely the note of genuine romance is dying away, to be replaced by the beatification of blood-letting. The modern historical romance, coming as it does so largely from the hands of young women, may very well be trusted to return some day from Aceldam. And even blood-letting is not always elemental savagery. The discouraging trait in modern literature is not descended from romance, but from anthropology. The mystery of life and love has been dispelled by the vigorous young men, who are acting the pace in writing. Their men do not fall in love any more. They mate. The elemental passions which these anateur sociologists imagine belonged to the cave man are found and described among the men and women of to-day's world. In com- ermond-Daytona Beach, Flor Ida.

Mr. Gage suggested that it be taken up. Mr. Lyon intimated that it would be rather difficult for him to find the money at the time. "Well," said Mr. Gage, "you have been traveling in the south in a private car and you drive a good team. If you can do that you ought to take up the note." "Gage, replied Lyon, 'I'll take up the note if you wish, but I don't see you fear the security simply because I ride in a private car and drive a good team. Is it your theory that the security would be better if I rode in a smoker and used a street car?" NEVER FORGETS A VOICE.

New Caledonia is in the tropics, far down in the Pacific. The nearest land of size is Australia, which is 900 miles distant. New Caledonia is known throughout the world as a great penal colony. France has used it for storage purposes of this kind since 1864 and especially since the fall of the Paris commune, after which it was made the place of exile of thousands of Frenchmen who were involved in the storms of that time. Since then this McLanahan land has been used for the condemned by the laws of their country. The greater part of the white inhabitants therefore are interesting, but not socially select. The island itself is described by George Griffith, an English traveler, as a paradise. The climate is delightful, the mountainous scenery most beautiful. New Caledonia's soil is fertile and its土壤 full of turtles.

A mining expert once went over from Australia to make a survey for the International Copper company and afterward he made his report in person to the board in London. He knew as much about mining as anybody in the southern hemisphere, but his language was that of the bush. A noble lord asked him of he could give any estimate of the amount of copper, nickel, cobalt, iron, silver, gold and so on that might be found in the central chain of mountains. This was his answer: 'My lord, if you were to take all the — minerals of these mountains the — island would — well fall to pieces.' The report was taken as satisfactory. Until 1853 New Caledonia was a sort of no-man's land. Then both England and France decided to annex it and orders came to two warships to proceed thither at once. They started the same day.

The returned missionaries who publicly plained the other day that, after liking entirely unhurt for four years among the wildest savages of Africa, he had no sooner returned to civilization than he met with a railway accident that kept him in a hospital for six months curiously illustrated the habit of the human mind to dwell upon remote dangers and ignore those near. Yet the fact is indisputable—the accident insurance companies have proved it to their financial loss and gain—that one of the most dangerous places a man can live in own home, whereas one of the safest is in a first-class rail train at full speed, while the very safest place on earth is aboard a first-class steamship in the middle of the Atlantic—Chicago Inter Ocean. has made slave raiding impossible, and this much is certain that if Christianity had not entered Nysalaland there would be no British administration there to day, and Central Africa would still be a land of darkness, of spoliation and of blood. evangelists go out two by two from the mission, No pay is given them, but a few heads are usually furnished to enable them to buy food at the distant stations.

CHRONOTHANATOLETRON Something Novel With Sixteen Young Ladies In It. Everybody should see the chrono-than a-tol-e-tron, in which sixteen young ladies appear, presented by St. Monica Guild of St. Philips' mission as presented in New York under the direction of Mrs. E. W. Daniel at Twin City hall Friday evening, February 10th. Miss Mayme Wael locutionist. The Coloridge-Taylor Quartet will appear. Dancing and refreshments after the performance. Tickets 35 cts. Bronze Cent at a Premium. People will no doubt be surprised to learn that a specimen of the ordinary bronze cent of 1877, in especially good condition, brings as much as from $1 to $1.50. They command a premium, no matter what is their state of preservation, but their value doubles and trebles when they show little signs of wear from circulation. There are a good many cents of this date still in general circulation if one will take the trouble to keep a look-out for them. Where Men Wear Combs The traveler in India is surprised to see that men wear combs in their hair much more than women do. A Cingalese gentleman wears what we know as a circular comb and a very ornamental back comb of tortoise shell to gather his curly locks together. He wears a full beard also, but his servant must trim his own, and is only allowed to wear the circular comb. A Commodore's Tip. Commodore E. C. Benedict and his Wall street friend, L. D. Huntington, were fishing together recently when a casual acquaintance in another boat who thought it a golden opportunity to get a valuable tip maneuvered his craft so that it floated by quite near them. "How do you think things are going, Commodore?" as asked, eagerly. "Well," said Benedict, who is an enthusiastic船 yachtsman, but has a holy horror of naphtha, "sailboats may go down, but naphtha launches are more likely to go up." Russians Drop Alexander. It has been a tradition since the time of Nicholas I. to name the carezvitches alternately Alexander and Nicholas. But the murder of Alexander I. caused his name to be considered unlucky, so there will be no more Alexanders on the Russian throne, as there will be no more Pauls or Peters.

COST OF LIVING IN ASIA Modern Improvements Have Imposed Burden on Natives. During a recent tour in Asia of nearly sixteen months, from February, 1901, to June, 1902, in which I visited Japan, Korea, China, the Philippines, Cochin China, Slam and Laos, the Straits Settlements, Burmah, India, Syria and Palestine, I found everywhere a deep interest in the changing economic conditions. The common people in Asia care little for politics, but the price of food and relent TELEPHONE MAIN 1504. Day or Night. touches every man, woman and child at a sensitive point. Almost everywhere the old days of cheap living are passing away. Steamers, railways, telegraphs, newspapers, labor-saving machinery and the introduction of Western ideas are slowly but surely revolutionizing the Orient. Shantung wheat, which formerly had no market beyond a radius of a few dozen miles from the wheat field, can now be shipped by railway and steamed to any part of the world, and in consequence every Chinese buyer has to pay more for it. In like manner new facilities for export have doubled, trebled, and in some places quadrupled the price of rice in China. Siem and Japan—Century Magazine. MADE PET OF WILD DOVE. English Clergyman's Kindness Tamed Woodland Creature. The rector of Woolstone, Mr. Gilbert Coventry, has just told me of a wild rock dove which one of his stable boys had reared from the nest. It slept in the open, however, and had full liberty. Soon the good things on the rector's table attracted it, and it would appear through the open window at meal times, take hot soup with much zest, and even slip sherry from the wineglass. At night it often slipped in and slept in the rector's bed, on its back, under the coverlet. One Sunday morning during the reading of the lesson, the dove flew swiftly through an open window into the church and settled on the rector's head. Broad smiles spread over the faces of the elders, and audible titters came from the youngsters. A gentle touch sent the bird down to the edge of the clerk's desk below, where it sat undisturbed.—Pall Mall Gazette. Why Do You Wait? Why do you wait, till cars are deaf Before we speak, or kindly word, And only utter long praise When not a whisper can be heard? Why do we wait till hands are laid Close-folded, pulseless, ere we place Wildly with our hands, and illies in their flawless grace? Why do we wait till eyes are sealed To light and love in death's deep trance Dear wristful eyes—before we bend Above them with impassioned glance? Why do we wait till hearts are still To tell them all the love is ours, And give them such late meal of praise And lay above them fragrant flowers? How oft we, careless, wait till life's End, when we break our "alabaster box, And break our "alabaster box, Of ointment" at the very last? Oh, let us heed the living friend. Who walks with us life's common ways, Watching our eyes for love of love, And hungering for a word of exchange.

T61) In all institutions of learning, whether they be great universities or common schools there will always be found some very "cheap skates." An exhibition of littleness took place recently in the billiard room of one of the clubs at Chicago university. Mr. Alex B. Terrell, an Afro-American student, was invited by a white student to join him in a game of billiards. Mr. Terrell, though not a member of the club, accepted the invitation. But as soon as the game began two or three "cheap skates" left the room because of Terrell's acceptance of the of their element when among gentle M. E. H.

Some of our shore birds appear to make traveling their chief occupation. The American golden plover arrives in the first week in June in the bleak, wind-swept "barren grounds" of Alaska, above the arctic circle and far beyond the tree line, and, while the lakes are still ice-bound, hurriedly fashions a shabby little nest in the moss. By August it is in Labrador, where it stuffs itself with such quantities of "crowberries" that its flesh is actually stained by the dark purple juice. From Nova Scotia it strikes out to sea, and takes a direct course for the West indies, 1,000 miles away, finally reaching southern Brazil and the prairies of Argentina. Sixteen thousand miles does it traverse in order to spend ten weeks on the arctic coast. The choice of route and distance covered by a single flight are governed chiefly by food supply.—Saturday Evening Post. SORE NECKS ON HORSES. Some Timely Suggestions Team Owners Should Read. The most of the machinery now used on the farm is balanced by the tongue, and consequently a great deal of weight comes on the horse's neck, which is liable to get sore during the hot weather. I know how disagreeable it is to drive a horse with a sore neck, besides the pain and annoyance it gives the horse. I find that the trouble can usually be avoided by observing the following rules: Never check the horse while at work so he cannot lower his head and work the collar front slightly while standing. You will always notice it is the horse that carries his head high that is most liable to get a sore neck. See that the collar fits the neck of the horse so it will not work from side to side as he walks.—Northwestern Agriculturist. Home Surgery. A bit of home surgery, stated to have been practiced when a splinter is driven into a child's hand particularly deep, is its extraction by steam, says the Brooklyn Times. A bottle with a sufficiently wide mouth is filled two-thirds with very hot water, and the mouth of the bottle is placed under the injured spot. The suction draws the flesh down when a little pressure is used, and the steam in a moment or two extracts inflammation and splinter together. This is very efficacious when the offending substance has been in for several hours, long enough to have started some of its evil consequences. Going. Going. Gone. Down in a Virginia town the aged pastor of one of the churches fell ill not long ago. He was beloved by all the neighborhood and a constant stream of anxious friends rang the bell to make inquiries. The nurse in charge was an intelligent negro woman, and she decided to issue bulletins at frequent intervals. She wrote them herself and pinned them to the front door, and this is the way they read as they appeared successively: "Rev. Mr. Blank am very sick." "Later—Rev. Mr. Blank am worse." "Night—Rev. Mr. Blank am sinking." "Morning—Rev. Mr. Blank have sunk." Consumption of Coffee. In proportion to its population Brazil takes first place as a country of coffee-drinkers. The consumption of coffee per capita in Brazil is fourteen pounds each year, in Belgium and Holland it is eleven pounds, while in the United States each person in the population consumes an average of eight pounds of coffee yearly. England is much behind in the procession with a consumption of only one half pound per capita annually, but the amount of tea consumed on an average, in that country by each person is five times as great as in the United States. Watch Moon for Omens. Watch farmers The Dutch farmers of Rowan county are among North Carolina's most prosperous and most interesting people; they live well, save money and improve in every way. Thrift is a virtue with them. They are great believers in signs and old savings; they do things by the moon. Before building a worm fence the Dutch always watch the moon, says the Charlotte, N. C. Observer; it must be right or the fence will sink into the ground. The bottom rail must be put down when the little moon is turned up, so that it will not sink into the ground. The Little Rift. In love, if love he love, if love he ours, Faith and unfaith can never be equal Unfaith in aught is want of faith in all. It is the little rift within the lute, That by and by will make the music and, ever widening, slowly silence all. The little rift within the lute's lute, Or little pitted speck in garnered fruit, That rotating, slowly slows moulders all. It is not worth the keeping; let it go; But shall it? Answer, darling, answer And trust me not at all or all in all. Unique Wedding Notice. The following strange wedding notice is going the rounds, variously credited: "The bride was born of honest but well-meaning parents and could walk alone at 6 months, at 10 she could run real fast, and has never glacened her gait. She has many friends—most of them dead ones. The happy couple took a bridal trip to Westly, and will be at home with the old man until they are kicked out."
