A novel advertisement for American manufacturers Is given In the state ment that the Wltwutcrsrnud mines have, through motives of patriotism, placed n large order for coal cars In Knglantl, though American llrms of fered to supply the cars for less money mid In a shorter time. About half of all the cotton goods wo M'll abroad goes to China, which pur chased last year over $ 10,000,000 worth of our sheetings, drills, Jeans and other grades. They are landed In Hhnnghnl, and 1)0 per cent of the goods Is forward ed at once to Chefoo, Tlen-tsln and Newchwaug for thu North China mar kets. A little over tl pur cent Is sold In cities up the Yangsu Klver and thu remainder Is consumed In Shanghai and Its neighborhood! This Is nu agu of freedom In dress and nppearuuee. Thu story books of our grandparents spoke of the eccen tricity of a man who allowed u beard to grow on bis face. Of twenty-two contributors to a new cneycloiedlu, whoso portraits have been recently pub Ibdiitl, all but live are strangers to the razor. The familiar group of portraits of our Presidents shows no well-beard-etl man until Abraham Lincoln's time. Thu three military Presidents, Grant, Hayes nnd Oartlelil, each woru a full beard. Hoth of thu leading presidential cnudldntcs to-day aru closely shaven. Although the present fashion chletly of young men Is that of n smooth face, thu fashion Is not Imperative. Kvery man mny follow It or defy It without being queer. - A capacity "foFtnkl'ng pains IiiThib ftCHM plana Mind products Is more and more a condition of success. Australian butter-packing may servo as an exam ple. Shipments are secured against de terioration by placing thu butter lu boxes nindo of plates or window glass, tlio edges being closed by applying KUtumcd paper. Thu boxeH nre covered with layers of plaster of purls, anil then wrapped In specially prepared water proof pncklng paper. Such methods help to ralso tlio nverngo of attention to details. Tho reluctance of humaii bu lugs to rat mmppetlzlng things In creases. It pays to make food offered for sale attractive In form as well as Miibstance. Tho high stnndnrd Is mon ey In the pocket of the dealer nnd health for tho consumer. The couverso Is true. This county has lost a once promising trndo In exporting cheese. Those who ruined tlio trade know how Ihey did It, but thoy should bo too much nshnined of themselves to tell tho world how It was doue. A St. Louis man, who was young, had work and a future that might Imvo been tmm'HNful, bought a hunch of roses, ar ranged them nu his breast and drank n fatal dose of morphine. He had ro .tealedly told hi friends that llfo was nut worth living. This Is but one casu showing tho prevalence of tho pessl mlstle spirit. Kvery day or so the news papers record the deaths of persons, fro iiuently young girls and even children, who hud become Imbued with that dis gust of life which destroys hope and faith and courage. Houghly speaking, the world Is divided between the Jtessl mists unit the optimists. And tho Mr.inge fact Is that many persons who nre healthy and In comfortable circum stances nre among the pessimists. This being so, It becomes tho duty of all men and women of faith to do what they inn to discourage tho spread of despair by luculcntlug tho gospel of good cheer. It Is .i mutter of health nnd philosophy -of attitude towards life. Tho worth or llfo depends upon both tho liver and the living. Life Is always worth liv ing to men who live right nnd see that the joy of life depends upon tho man himself and not upon his outward cir cumstances. In nn addreHg on "Itlslit Living" be fore tho Olilcnuo Ktulcul Society, Will. taut M. Baiter mild: "To simply cat nnd sleep, that Is not llfo. To bo the r-luvo of work of work that takes the Joy nnd surculty ont of life that U not truly to llvi To have no tlmo to thluk, to have no dnyit to ourselves, to never let our ml ml expand under tho Inilu euro of Kreitt thoughts, that Is not to live. Nor Is It IIvIiik never to enter tho ntinotniero of principles und feel their cninpvlllui; and tnuistlKurliiK power.',' There Is a cant of commerce as there In u cant of reUnlon, Tho man who works day und night, denies himself all the Joys of life uettlnj; und kecplmj money, who builds up a great fortune and whose soul contracts hr his wealth expandH that mnu docs not know how to live, and when he prenches the gos pel of what he calls work he Is guilty of cant. Agassi, once remarked thai he hadn't time to make money. He was too busy working. Money getting Is only one kind of work. The work of llfo Is servlni one another. When the stntesman, merchnnt, lawyer, shop keeper and menial realize that truth we shall have right living. No work that Is vital and really worth doing U for self alone. The census olllce at Washington has announced thu total population of the United Htntes to be TO.'JOS.iMO, a gain of 1. '1,25,1(11 over the IM,0(W,7oO enu merated lu 1800. Thu number Is greater thnn thu conservative estimates calcu lated on a study of tho rato of growth, although far short of some exuberant predictions wholly based on n patriotic desire to astonish the world. Thu In crease Is approximately 21 per cent In the ten years. Out of this total popula tion, residents- to the number of 7-1.027,-1)07 nro found In tho forty-live States, tho remnlnder being credited to the ter ritories nnd Including citizens lu na tional service abroad. Thu returns seem to bo completu oxeept from Alaska and from 8omo of the foreign military sta tions, these being estimated from the best dntn obtainable. Illinois, Wiscon sin and Minnesota are the only States touching the great lakes which show a percentage of gain greater than 21 per cent, the national ratio, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania falling be low that rate of Increase. Of the Southern States Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi anil Texas rise to or abovo that ratio, Flor ida with :i.p and Texas with .'17 per cent, while Arknnsns, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee fall behind It. Thu New Kngland' States are not all slow of In crease, Connecticut, Massachusetts, nnd Ithodo Island being above normal, .Massachusetts with 27 per cent gain. Maine, New Ilnmpshlre and Vermont, however, show but fi, 0 and II per cent advance, respectively. Of the Atlantic const Mlddlo States Delaware. Vir ginia and Maryland fall far below the average rate, New Jersey and West Virginia rise over the datum Hue, while New York barely shows 21 per cent gain over 181)0. Idaho with IM) .per cent, Montana with 81, North Dakota with 7(1, Washington with -18 and Wy oming with Hit maintain the Western reputation for rapid growth, California. Colorado, Oregon and Utah passing well above the 21 percent line, but.Icss sensationally. Iowa, South Dakota, Kansas nml Nebraska aru the middle States showing slow growth, with a gain of 18, 11, it nnd 1 per cent respec tively. Nevada Is tho only Statu show ing a loss. Thu' Territories, of course, outstrip all competitors, Oklahoma par ticularly, with a gain of nearly r..'0 per cent In the ten years. One of the re sults or thu census undoubtedly will bu n liojiv Congressional apportionment. upon tlio present nasis or resprescnin- tlon tho nationnl House or Kcpreseutn tives would be Increased so ns to bu iinwleldly. Probnbly a now basis or representation will bo decided on. Tlio lIiirryHourry Unco. In the vicinity of Montreal no rpjcnttn program Is complete without n hurry scurry rnce. Of course, writes a con trlbutor to Association Men, such races ure not omitted from our Y. M. U. A. camp sports. Kucli canoe Is anchored from twenty live to llfty feet nwny from the stnrtlm;. place. At the crack of the pistol the contestants dlvo Into tho water and swim to their canoes, get In, ctiHt loose, und paddle for dear life for the turning buoy, one hundred yards away. In the midst of their struggle the plft tol barks. Kvery mnu throws his pad dle overboard and follows suit himself, then returns to his canoe nnd continues pudding until the next shot, when tho same performance Is repeated. The ilrst man homo Is tho winner. The novice swamps his craft on the Ilrst attempt, but the expert will often llulsh the nice with but two or three gallons of wnter In his ennoe. The event Is made much more dlf llcult by compelling the men nt the see end shot to upset their canoes mid right them again. A Moutrculer has succeed ed lu doing this lu three ami three fourth seconds, turning his canoo com pletely over nnd shipping only n few iiuurts or wnter lu doing It. Another feature Is to swamp the ennoe, tilling It to the gunwale amf then emptying It. This has been doue In less than one minute. These latter tricks, however, nre not often tried lu this nice, as they make It too dllllcult. OrlKil tirecultijr Apple Ttt The Amerlcau Cultivator says that the orlglual Greculug apple tree Is still standing on tho farm of Solomou Druwue at Mount Hygela, In North Foster, It. I. The tree was a very old ouo when tho farm was sold In'ISOt. Tho seller Informed the purchaser that It wa a pity the old tree was koIujt Into decay as It produced the best fruit of any treo In the orchard. Tho purchaser detennlued to how long ho could keep It alive, and It still survives after almost another century has been added to Its venerable years, nut It shows signs of tlnal decay, and the parent of all the famous Hhodo Island greenings, which has set Its grafts on the orchards of almost all the world, will be but n neighborhood memory.
