A new expedi tion Is also being planned to llnd tho north polo, nud n Loudon man Is llgur lug on starting n Christian dally. It Ih the busy man, the man who la bors, tho workmen, If you please, of the world who Imvo built up tho com munity. Tho trouble Is that they have worked without unity of purposo ami on too low n grade of Intolllgout pur pose. They nro wenkened by tholr low conception of their power and In fluence, us well as by Iguornuco of how to go about It. Of all tho citizenship tho biiHy and tho working mau has most need of thin public effort und nro tho ones who hIiouIi! press It.

If tho plan inntnrcH about four million chil dren will bo subject to this new branch of learning, It Ih proposed to start In with their martial tuition nt about tho ago of 11 and continue It for at least three years. During this time they will use dummy guiiH. When they leave school they will form armed cadet or ganizations, and so becomo lu mlnhi tmo exact counterparts of tho present mllltlu or volunteer regiments. All of which Is quite a commentary on the way modern education Is Inclined to teuch tho young Idea how to shoot. 1 To wed early or late, that Is tho ques tion which Is now agitating tho minds of peoplo who want to keep tho human race headed lu tho right direction. Whether 'tis better to rush blindly In to matrimony when one feels that ho Is up to his ears In lave- or, by waiting, run the risk of meeting some one later on who will not bo opposed to tnklng In boarders or looking after a grocery If neeosMiry. Mr. Kdwnrd Ilok, editor of tho Ladles' Homo Journal, luforuiH us that no man can afford to marry before he Is 'Si years of age. Mr. Ilok himself remained a bnchelor until bo was well past IH), and wo Infer from tho ndvleo he now gives out that ho regards his present happiness as suf tlclent to repay him for all tho lonely years that elapsed before ho renlly be gan to live. An Irreverent Western critic suggests that perhaps Mr. Ilok looks back upon his years of single blessedness with so much pleasuro now that ho wantH to help prolong tho hap piness of others as much as posslblo by warning them against unduo haste; but we dismiss this Insinuation as un worthy of notice and too base for seri ous dlKcusslou. Judge Hlmeon 10. llahlwln recently de livered an address before the Ameri can Social Science Association on "Tho Nntuuil Hlght of Man to a Natural Death." He took tho position that a innu who was hopelessly 111 should be permlteed to die without effort to pro long his life, ami that medical men should not lengthen the lives of persons suffering from lueuiuble diseases. T understand the startling proposition It U well to understand that Judgo Bald win Is n mau who does not enjoy mak ing statements simply to see tho effect nud to bo amused by tho adverse criti cism. Ho Is a Judgo of tho Supreme Court of Connecticut and a lecturor on constitutional law nt Vale. Ills repu tation as a Jurist and thinker entitles him lo a respectful hearing. Should tho proposition bo accepted by physl dans, thUik 'if tho awful mistakes tbnt would bo made. Think of the men who have- been pronounced hope lessly 111 who arc to-dny walking the streets In the enjoyment of perfect health. Their lives had been prolonged, and then came recovery that In many cases Is unaccountable. Man has a natutnl right to live as well as to die. LUo Is sweut to most persons, and their wish to llvo Is paramount to nuy rea son of expeuao and burden to others thnt they might be. No medical man's Judgment Is Infallible, and few physi cians would care to assume tho respon sibility of tho profession If thoso be lieved to bo hopelessly 111 were to be denied medicine and attention that would prolong llfo. Judge Baldwin's proposition Is contradictory to tho highest Instlnct3 of humanity. PUGILIST WANTED HIS CHANGE Hunt nm Annoyed the Conductor an -I Trouble Kemilte.l. Tho bo main-weight prize tighter, lm mu'culalo lu a now spring overcoat and a blende bxt, stepped on tho street car with a coulldent air and leaned against the rear dashboard. The conductor looked him over with poorly concealed contempt. He was not to blame, for tho bantam carried no three-sheet post ers ou his overcoat telling who ho was. "Fare," said tho conductor rather sharply. Tho slugger yawned and fished up a coin. Tho conductor shoved It In tils pocket and rang up tho fare. Then ho gazed Into tho car and rode for some moments motionless. Tho bantam touched him on the arm. "Well, what Is It?" demanded the conductor, turning savagely. "My change?" said tho llttlo fellow mildly. "Change? Whatchcr want?" cried tho nickel sua tcher; "change for a nickel?" "I gavo you a quarter," suggested the bantam. "You what? Well, say, young feller, another crack like that an' off you go In tho ditch," snld the polko conductor. Tho bantam looked him In the cyo and said: "Aro you going to glvo me my 20 cents?" "S-B-sp-p-p " the conductor started to say, linking his words together so fast that they fell over one another. And then ho Incautiously reached forth an nrm toward the dapper llttlo mau In tho light coat. When they had stopped the car to take tho conductor off he was lit for a surgical clinic. What tho llttlo fellow did to him was certainly sulllclent from n sctentlllc standpoint, and tho messen ger boy on tho platform methodically rang up ten fares beforo ho declared tho conductor "Out." Mennwhllo the llttlo mnu was standing on a corner sev eral blocks back lighting a clgnrctte and telling n friend thnt somo of these conductors would get hurt somo tlmo If they got gay, Chicago Chronicle.

Ills short Htny there Inspired tho following In tho Davenport Democrat: "Not many years ago Frank Lowden was an Iowa farmer boy. Ho eventu ally got Into tho Iowa Htato university, where, as peoplo of this city who knew him then tell It, ho held tho banner for country verdancy and awkwardness, but along with It ho held tho reputation of being ouo of tho best students and quickest learners In tho Institution. Ho taught lu the Ilurllugton high school for a tlmo, then gavo up teaching for the bar, then went to Chicago, nud then tho rest came easily. Any bright boy might I do tho snme. IIo succeeded lu having ouo of tho richest girls In tho country fall In lovo with him, nud when her father conveniently died ho came Into tho management of his vast estate, nud a foremost position as n successful at torney nud n mau of affairs. Every Iowa farmer boy .ought to look up and take heart with tho Inspiring vision of Mr. IOwden's success to encourage him." Iilfo of laborers) on Doer Farms. Tho native laborers ou tho Doer farms often thirty or forty tulles from tho nearest village have hard times compared to their brethren who work lu tho dorp (town); they nro badly fed, badly housed, nud too often treated as If they were cattle. Ouo often won ders why nu Ill-used family of Kaflra does not pack up Its fow cooking pot and leave a cruel master; but the real reason of tho Kaflra' submission Is that they am always Induced to make agree ment to servo for a certain tlmo per haps a year or two years and If they go away within that period they can be brought back, beaten, and put In tho trouk (as tho Jail Is called).
