It Ih the busy man, the man who la
bors, tho workmen, If you please, of

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

In the public hcIiooIh of flint country Is
to receive a mllltery training with n
view to future pnxHlhllltlcH of being
culled on to servo us u soldier. 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

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

LESSON FOR BOYS.
The Iliac of Frank (). I.owden n For
in or Ilttrlinuton, I own, Teacher.
Frank O. Lowden, of Chicago, attor
ney nud practical head of the Pullman
Tnlaco Car Company, nud husband of
riorenco Pullman, and at ouo tlmo n
school teacher lu Ilurllngtou, was lu
Davenport, Iowa, recently. 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). Tho only
food given Katlrs ou the farms la
mealies (corn), of which ttiey mako a
very coarse Hour and then boll Into a
thick porridge; and perhaps once a
week they get a pleco of mutton as a
treat for specially hard work.
