From "My Old Maid's Corner," The Century, March, 1903. To me it had seemed that those who occupied centers of affection should be less concerned with what came to them as their due, than with what went out from them as their obligation; that, like the sun itself, they should be cen ters of centrifugal forces, radiating, through the very fullness of their joy, light and gladness in.o other lives.

WHERE CHARITY BEQINS. Wise Bros., the Portland Dentists, Say "Help Thyself." In many ways the dentist is your best friend. - He helps you when yonr teeth are tiled. When your teeth wear out and break down he steps in and braces them up, puts new life into them, and makes them efficient. Your success in life, your feelings, whether of contentment or worry, greatly depend upon how your nourishment agrees with you. Ia it not a certaintv that your food will do you little good if your teeth are unable to perform their rightful work? To say nothing of the advantage of having a good looking set of teeth (than which nothing is more effectively attractive) it is more comfortable, and absolutely indispensable to health, happiness and success, to have a set of teeth that are capable of being used. Why delay a minute? There is no pain connected with having your teeth put in perfect order. There is no pain in getting an entire new set of teeth, which cannot be toid from natural ones. Wise Brothers, in the Failing Building, Portland, Oregon, are making scores of people happy every day, by sending them away with as good a set of teeth as nature ever put into a man's or a woman's head. The cost of their work 1b extremely mod erate. There is little excuse for ' anyone, now-a-days, neglecting their ' teeth. Teeth are extracted absolutely without pain, and the expense of starting a new in life, with a sound set of teeth, is slight. Chairty begins at home, and all persons having regard for their own welfare should go immediately and con sult such eminent modern dentists as Wise Brothers. His Only Refuge.

The cable will bring many changes. The debtor who takes French leave, the embezzler who seeks pastures new, the swindler who comes to work the town as Dunbar did with his directory nine years ago, will have to scratch Honolulu off his list He cannot feel safe even If he starts for Manila or Japan, for a touch at the button In the Young building will bring a response from any quarter of the world which Is reached by the various branches of the submarine telegraph. Less time will be used In negotiat ing. The little trader who wants an extension from the Jobber cannot de pend on fourteen days or more of grace due to slow malls. The cablegram will promptly settle his case. Ships won't stay here so long as formerly waiting advices from owners, as the dismasted Andromeda bos done through many weary weeks. There Is hardly a ship ping house In the world that will not be able to reach this port with Its mes sages in an hour's time. One of the prime advantages of the cable will be seen In the promptness with which trade orders may be filled. Often In the past Honolulu has been brought to the brink of mercantile fam ines; kerosene, or flour, or some other necessary has run short. Such things need not happen any more. When a scarcity Is In sight the cable can be connected at once with the centers of supply. Nor can things be done surreptitious ly at Washington. In the past when a man has wanted something official which he knew he could not get with the approbation of the local public, he has hurried away secretly on some out going steamer and got a long start at the National Capital. When the cable comes, his arrival there at noon will be known here five hours earlier and messages can be sent to head him off. Undoubtedly the cable will make Honolulu a favorite port of call with nnval ships of all natlpns, particularly our own. They will come here for or ders and stay here within the reach of orders. This will make up for the shorter stay of waiting merchant 'ves sels. These are but a few of the coming changes. There are enough more to make a long story. Pacific Commercial Advertiser. A FLOATING SAWMILL. Towed About Lake Champluln for Convenience' of Farmers. Up on Lake Champlain they are op erating a floating suwmill with a great deal of success. It Is a two-storied, arkllke affair, built upon a heavy float. The boiler and sawing machinery occu py the entire main deck. ' The upper story Is divided Into living rooms for the crew. As soon as the mill has fin ished with one batch of logs a small tug tows It to the next cove. The mill can be hired by the week or by the Job, and In some cases logs have been cut on shares. The result has been that farmers along the lake have been able to cut their trees and market the lum ber with profit There was a time w hen Lake Cham plain was one of the greatest lumber marts In the world. Burlington, Vt., was the center of a vast business, and ;is water front was a network of mills. A shortage of timber on the shores of the hike and In the Immediate back country has dwarfed the Industry. Im proved transportation facilities have mude it possible to send mills Into the woods and ship out the lumber direct ly. The lake Is no longer a necessary adjunct to the trade. Now, by means of the floating sawmill, the stray ends will be picked up and the last sign of marketable timber will disappear. The floating sawmill has Its winter quarters behind the Burlington break water, where It attracts much atten tion. A high stuck rises out of the house at the stern, giving the craft the appearonce of an antiquated steamer. In the same eud are wide doors, through which the logs are hauled to the sawing block. The lumber Is passed out through one porthole In the side of the barge and the Blabs through an other. The sawdust and scraps are carried to the flreroom and furnish the fuel. Now that the success of the scheme has been proved, says the New York Tribune, the floating mill will have to work overtime. Poe'e Smile of Genius. His mouth was like Apollo's bow unbent, and, in the natural curve, said sorrow, with Imagination, but, when wreathed Into smiles by any cheering inflorescene of his soul disclosing a set of Ivory teeth as evenly set as the opal walls of Eden was absolutely captivating and beautiful. So remark ably pleasing was this transition from sadness to sunshiny, gladness of hilar ity that I now seem to see him smil ing before me lighting up the dim vistas of my memory " as the ' rain fraught lightning does the darkness of a summer night. But there was this peculiarity about his smile, which I do not remember ever to have seen In any other person, namely, that it did not appear to be the result of glad ness of heart altogether nor gladness mixed with sorrow but a pleasing sa tire a smiling review of all that had Just been said by him like the trium phant world-renovating laughter of the weeping heavens expressive of that beautiful Appolonlan disdain which seemed to' say: "What you 'Bee through a glass darkly' I behold through the couched eye of an Illu minated seer." Not only did he look this, but he felt It felt It with 8 II his Inmost soul. It was, In the truest ac ceptance of the term, a smile of ge nius.
