HOW MUCH?
What do you owe your world?
Certainly you owe aa oiucb us bus

world bus given you much you owe
much, if little you owe that little.
Nature bas endowed you with some
gift or grace or talent You were
given your talent to serve your day
and generation.
To Illustrate: .
Edison was born with a genius for
Invention. Think you that genius wus
given hlin for selfish uses, merely to
aiake niouey?
Certainly not
Primarily Edison Invents for the so
cial benefit of this world. Incidentally
be makes money. But bis best reward
comes In other ways than money. It
comes In
The Joy of Invention.
In the satisfaction of doing a social
service.
And In the esteem and favor of those
whom be serves.
Or
A woman like Melba or Nordlca Is
born with a gift of song. Sbe culti
vates ber voice and delights vast au
diences and wins a fort una But ber
best reward Is In the delight of the
song Itself, in tbe pleasure sbe gives.
In the appreciation of ber public. Sbe

The composer of a sweet song, the
painter of a great picture, the archi
tect of a fine temple, tbe publicist who
serves the public-money to these Is
tbe least of their reward.
Or-
One Is born with the gift of a great
love for his fellows, a genius for sym
pathy and good cheer. By his large
and noble nature he strengthens the
spirits of men and women and children

flow much do you oweT
You owe what you are able to do and
be. If you are able to speak or to sing
or to pulut or to write or to build you
must give to tbat one thing the best
that Is in you.
If you are able to sympathise and
help, to encourage and cheer, even In
a small way. you owe your world that

Where much la given much Is re

is required.
Are you paying your debt?
POWER.
I hare lurried that every appetite ex
cept the appetite for dutjr must be sub
dued and enchained and clamped to tbe
utmost reitrlctlon If you would have euc
ooaa oo me to you. David itelaaco.
Not long ago 1 stood on the banks of
tbe Mississippi, near Keokuk, where
the glaut dam, costing several million
dollars. Is being completed.
The work is second only to that of
the Panama canal, and when the wa
ters are harnessed thousands of horse
power will be utilized.
Looking a J tbe army of men. the

motives, and thinking of the expend)
ture of money and lubor and nervous
energy, one naturally asks. Why?
Power! And what Is power?
Nobody knows. The engineers know
bow to get it, but they do not know
what it Is.
Uow do they get It?
By restricting the flow of the waters.
The electrical forces are generated by
piling up tbe waters and pouring tbem
onto a turbine. Ieft free, the power es
capes. It Is so with humans.
They get. power only by restricting
themselves. He who by "subdued, en
chained and clamped restrictions" lim
its himself, denies himself, becomes
powerful.
There Is no other way. '
Tbe difficult way is the successful
way. You pay tbe price of selfhood by
denying self.
If only tbe young could see tblsl
They want the easy way. They
choose the line of )east resistance be
cause they shrink from the pang of
Belf sacrifice. They want ease and in
dulgence and lassitude and tbe sun

Only that Is worth while which is
hard to get
When some poor youth struggles up
ward to success we are surprised, when
as a matter of fact we should expect
It Having bis way to make, the poor
youth restricts every appetite but that
of duty, and be develops power, char
acter, success.
Do you want power?
It must come through hardship and
self denial, by subduing unwholesome
appetites, by restricting yourself to
your one chosen field of endeavor.
Power comes by restraint
THE THOUSANDTH OF AN INCH.
' Arthur Brisbane tells how the turn
ing of a screw one-thousandth of an
Inch made hundreds of millions of
dollars.
It was the turning of the screw that
delicate fraction of an inch that made
possible the telephone.
Before Professor Bell perfected the
telephone Rels, a German school
master, had contrived a phone over
which be could whistle and convey
certain noises, but It would not trans
mit human speech.
Rels believed the two electrodes
should be close together without touch
ing. Bell's Idea was that the elec
trodes should barely touch each other.
After "years of efpeTlinintlng one flay
he turned the screw the thousandth
part of an Inch and
Lo, tbe telephonel
Editor Brisbane draws the conclusion
that many persons fall of success by
the thousandth of an Inch. They fall
to connect
Continuing bis sermonette, one might
add the exhortation concerning the
needs of perseverance. Though he
had missed by tbe thousandth of an
Inch, Bell kept on trying. The final
fortunate twist of the wrist brought
success and fume.
- He succeeded because be -kept on.
As the homely lines of our old school
books put It:
If at first you don't succeed,
' Try, try again.
Many a man bas missed success be
cause be got tired and quit trying.
The patient Edison kept on trying
substance after substance hundreds of
them until he found the right sort of
wire for his Incandescent bulb.
But be kept trying.
It required years of trying on the
part of Oliver to make the first chilled
steel plowshare, and McCormsck grew
gray headed In perfecting bis grain
cutting device.
They kept on.
Darwin built up his theory of evolu
tion bit by bit and only missed demon
stration by a fraction -the missing
link.
But be kept on I
For. mind you. whether you succeed
or fall by athousandtb of an Inch, the
thing worth while Is to keep at it,
and
Die trying!
It is not for ail of us to command
success, but It is for all of us to make
the effort. And so. whatever the out
come may be. pray God tbat hope die
not in your heart, and
Keep on trylngl
BEWARE.
Of the unspoken wefrd X am master, but
the spoken word la master of me.
How true it is!
So long as tbe word Is unspoken It
Is your servant Speak It and It Is
your tyrant. The spoken tbiug Is a
thing alive. Once uttered. It Is born.
And you cannot kill It
Two frleuds quarrel.
One of them forgets himself and the
respect due his friend. LoBlng his self
control, he says bitter things. His
words are barbed and his friend is
stung to the quick.
And then
In a few days, perhaps, the quick
tempered speaker meets the other.
When he sees his friend the Impetuous
one regrets his hasty speech. Im
pulsive In saying the kind word as
well as the unkind, be holds out bis
baud to say:
"I beg your pardon. I was wrong
and thoughtless. Let us be frleuds
and forget It"
Whereupon the other: "Surely I
shall forgive you and with all my
heart, but I only wish I could forget
I cannot"
Is he relentless? No. He Is frank
and honest
It might be kinder, no doubt cer
tnlnly more polite, to stop with for
giveness and sny nothing about tor
getting. But this mnn knows that it Is
impossible to forget He merely states
a fact when be says so.
The tear may be forgotten.
But the hurt stay in the heart.
That Is It The hurt stays in the

The wound finally heals. But there

to remind you of the wound.
You may shatter the vase and mend

A New York Importer of birds, ani

may sometimej get loose in transit if
the box containing thetu is broken, yet
they can if properly packed be shipped
onylistance with entire security. The
snakes, two or three or more If they
are small, ure put In u bag, and then
tbe bag is tied up and laid In a box on
a bed of bay, this to keep the stiukes
warm lu winter bay is also filled in
on top for their better protection at
that season. Wheu the cover bas been
nailed on boies are bored iu the box to
give air uud ventilation. Sometimes
openings are cut in the box and are
covered with wire nettlug. Thus pack
ed snakes are shipped at all seasons,
many of them lu tbe course of a year,
and It may be for loug distances. They
put a bou constrictor thirty feet or
more hi length and weighing 200 pounds
in a bag uud then box It just as they
wpuld a bunch of smaller snakes, and
it goes through all right.
Some snakes are sold in winter for
zoological collections, hut the greater
number of suakes ore sold' iu summer
to circuses, menageries and shows. In

Cause and Effect.
There is generally some quite simple
explanation of a mystery-lf It can
only be found out. The Inmplighter at
Greenford, England, was puzzled for
some time by finding one of the lamps
lighted every day, although he had
duly turned it down. He suspected
not spooks, but mischievous boys, and
so he prepared an ambush. To his
astonishment, as be was watching, up
went the light with never a boy in
sight, and then be discovered tbat the
unauthorized lamplighter was a tomtit
which had a nest in a corner of the
lamp, and In getting Into it was In the
habit of hopping on to the rlug of the
Incandescent bypass. Many years agoJ
the writer of this note remembers a
spell of mystery In the Bhape of the
mysterious ringing of a bell at inter
vals during the nlultt No human
agency could be detected, nnd the mys
tery grew deeper. Possibly the Psychi
cal Research society might have been
appealed to had not chance revealed
tbe fact that the ringing was caused
by a rat, that used the wire as a
