y THE NEW AGE. PORTIiAlND. OBEGON. I' , TOPICS OF ) TH TIMES. It Is foolish to worry; yestcrdny wns once to-tlny, mill to morrow will lo to day. A CIiIphko man wnntH to kill moHqut toes ly mi-aim of llitild nlr. "Hot nlr" docs not Hocm to nnnoy them nny. The Kuroiii'iin powers nrc threaten Jiir Turkey. Old huhlts miiy he shaken off for a time, hut they generally reas sert themselves. If a lnwyer wanted to make sure of n disagreement In a murder ease, he mightn't do hotter than get a dozen of medical experts on the Jury, If the Bultau Is going to shoot every man who causes him pain, our olllclal duuuer should ho supplied with a foul-let-proof coat before his next visit. General Casslus M. Clay thinks he Is good for nine or ten years yet. Ho ex pects to pass his 100th hlrthday anni versary before he Casslus In his checks. That the people of Itoston have al ways tried to mend their ways Is shown by the fact that the city has paid out over $r0,000,000 to widen and straight en her streets. General Miles argues strenuously for good roads because of their great use in time of war. Their usefulness In time of peace Is to most peojilu a sutll dent argument for having them. What sort of a halo ought an Alas kan saint to wear? A mission worker thinks that the frost and Ice encom passing the face and head of a mission nry bishop, when he appeared to make Ids expected visit at Circle City, consti tuted the kind of a halo appropriate to sainthood In that region. The safe rule Is to like what you please, and If you like ragtime music or uumusle like It and bid those who would Interfere with you go hang. It Is better to be tolerant than to be learned. Hut ragtime strains are de lightful, nil the same. Wc doubt If the man who haughtily turns his ears upon them can really appreciate either ltach or Handel. , A llrooklyn woman who won $:I00,- 0( In. tho Wall street gamble Is In- I I ned to plume herself on the mental cment of the deal. "Not that I would tie If I could," said she. "1 only wish I) strive to show that mind and Intel- let are ns largely developed In womnn Is In man." No doubt.. but before a kerdl"'. in rendered let us hear from tlie Woman who lost :itH,(00 In the atno gamble. fTho growth of Oklahoma has been ono of thu marvels of Western develop ment. For an agricultural territory, the population Is already large, while the farm products have rcachcd(almost Incredible proportions. The mineral re sources, which are almost untouched, are believed to be most bountiful. The future of such a Held Is not hard to esttmato In a country In which great developments are now but a repetition of recent history. Tho Invariable custom colleges have of hestowlug.the title of 1. 1.. I), on men they desire to honor, regardless of tho recipient's Ignorance or knowledge of tho law, leads to thu conclusion that tho colleges regard It ns the only one of tho traditional learned professions for which previous preparation Is eiu tlrely unnecessary. One never hears of n complimentary degree of 1). I), being bestowed on a layman or M. I), on a man who has no acquaintance with the ficlencu of medicine. Tlu t'lfi'trlu Htrwt rullroiul Is llttlu iiinro than ten year old, anil jet a iiiitn wIioho IiuhIiii'hh It wiih to luvi'Htlunto nil tlu IIiioh which wtr llrnt put In nyH that ulmoHt nothing of what ho then round In In um today, Practical ly all tlut appliance of electric railroad liiK of that time havo K"iu to thu Hcrap heap, ho rapid havo been tho Improve iiicutH In thin now Held. Thoro U al ways an experimental RtiiKO In now In vontloim, during which i'Iiuiikoh taku plaeo rapidly. Thou experience xlftH out tho hoHt, tho forum of machinery lie t'onio OHtalillslied, and after that Im provement aro comparatively rare. Tho Sultan excludes typewriters ma chine and female, from the TurklHh do inluloim because, ho Hays, ho cannot 4lotoot KcdltloiiH writing If It Ih In tho form presented by eulllj,inplile uniform oharacterH. Ho will havo no form if written communications within IiIn huI taule Jurisdiction except Mich an his detectives and experts can trace to Its nuthorstilp by peculiarities of chlro; rapliy. This opens up a now Inquiry us to how many suspects may have per ished by tho iHiWHtrliiK In Turkey on tho testimony of hantlwrltluj; experts. Where suspicion. and prejudice lead ex perts aloiiK' tho crookiM paths of a criminal trial Injustice Is not amom; tho least of tho events to bo expected. In Turkey, where human llfo Is cheap, It Is tho opinion of tho Chicago Chron icle that tho mistake of an expert may bo of little account. Hut In this coun try to banc a man on tho testimony of n handwriting expert Is to hunt; him on tho most uncertain kind of Kiiosswork. Tho learned men of today aro taking tich high matrimonial grounds and aro placing the twin of their disapproval ujpou bo many foialnlno typos that It would seom os If a social panic of some kind could hardly be averted. In cer tain lofty .elides It Is decreed that an artist must not limit his freedom by any kind of a marriage, and again It Is declared that a man had better go to the dogs than to go to the butterttles. The sclety girl Is placed In this latter category and Is the latest to be counted among the matrimonially condemned. Just what Is meant by "a society girl" It Is dlllleult to explain, but the tradi tional Ideal Is one who paints a little, plays, "pours," and shops In the same useless fashion and owes her glitter en tirely to the gold that a father or n brother has won for her. Dut this tra ditional type 1b fast disappearing and Is to bo put on the storeroom shelf along with the glass-cased, wax pond lilies that once graced the parlor cen ter tables, and In tier place will be n capable creature of Infinite possibilities. One of the most pathetic spectacles In life Is that of the so-called society girl deprived of the luxurious background that she had learned to take as a mat ter of course and compelled to put soma of her little odds and ends of accom plishments to account. It Is familiar ity with this spectacle that has caused wise parentsoto dig deeper when they arc laying the foundations for their daughters' education. What might be called the chiffon age Is a natunil stago In every girl's enreer, but unless hers Is a case of arrested development she will pass by this epoch as naturally ns i she did the doll stage. When she has passed through all these phases suc cessfully she Is no longer a society girl but n sociological girl. Has anybody any objections to marrying her? Present Industrial and social condi tions Ihvlte much serious thought on the tpiestlon of what a young girl shall do "to win success." Formerly It was the boy that occupied the attention and study of moralists and teachers. Hut the girl problem not the one In the kitchen Is looming up ns one of the most Important questions of the time and threatens to completely overshad ow the discussion of what to do with the boys. It Is Interesting to note the opinions of some of the brightest wom en upon this question as disclosed In a recent symposium. "No matter how wrapped up a girl may be In her ambi tious, let her by all means marry any way," says Dr. Julia Holmes .Smith. Mrs. I.cGraml W. I'erco declares she Is unable to "seo how n young woman can consistently give her life to a litis band and to a business at the same time." Mrs. Matilda II. Carso declare that a girl "cannot succeed In business while mnrrled." Mrs. Lucy Page Gas toil says that "girls should make their choice between tho home life and the active business or professional life." It Is very clear from all this expert opinion that It Is tho plain duty of girls to get married. At least they cannot hope to manage husband and a busi ness succcKsfully at v same 'time. Matrimony and business are Incompati ble. There must he a choice between tho store or the olllce and tho home. All this Is very well for tho girls who arc privileged to make a choice be tween inntrlmnuy and business. Un fortunately thoru are not enough mar riageable young men to go around even If they wero all disposed to embrace matrimony. Under theso conditions tho great Held of Industrial and pro fessional opportunity becomes alluring to ambitious young women. It Is fu tile to presuut to them the duty of marriage when there Is a dearth of matrimonial offers. Kim has, therefore. Invaded the stores, thu otllccs and the professions, and with varying degrees of success. If no young man will offer to support her and she Is to bo depriv ed of fultllllug her natural functions ns wife and mother she must do tho next best thing and support herself. These stern facts aro not conclusively an swered by the beautiful theories about "woman's sphere" and woman's duty. Chtiruh Huns u AVcxxlyarti. A man out of work, without money and without food for his family, ap plied not long since to Itev. Dr. George H. Anderson, pastor of tho 'Highland Avenuo Congregational Church of .Somervllle, Mass. Ills case touched tho clergyman's heart. Investigation proved tho man's tale of woo to bo true, Then ho conceived tho Idea of establishing a wood yard on a small Kcalc. Several cords of wood wero purchased and piled up In tho big basement of tho church. Men out of work and seeking employment wero Invited to como to tho chopping block. The plan proved a success. For ev ery foot of scantling sawed the man with tho saw received i!0 cents. Two feet, or a ipiarter of n cord, sawed and split, making live sugar barrels full, netted the worker IX) cents. This was considered a fair day's work. Four of these barrels of kindling nro sold for $1. Members of tho church buy them, This pays tho tlrst cost of tho scantlings and tho labor besides. No protlt Is made. The benefit of the deal goes to tho man who works. Not All Hlmiers. Tho Crown Prlnco of Germany Is so devoted to his mother that ho will not permit her to bo claused among ordi nary persons. A clergyman was once explaining to tho Crown Prince, who Is 'l years old now, that nil men nro sinners, where upon tho little fellow asked hi in If his father, tho Ktnperor, was not nu ex ception" to tho rule. "No, ho la not," answered tho clergyman; "tho Kaiser Is a sinner, llko every other mortal," "Well, I'm sure of ono thing," said tho little Prince, "nnd that Is that my mother la no sinner."
