THE OTW AGKE, PORTLAND, OREGON. ) TOPICS OF THE TIMES. Tlip fichley Incident Is supposed to le nettled. Hut In It? It Ih only tho lol)Htor of commerce tliut la dlHuppeitrlnj;. Can It tu poRHlhlo there arc 500,000 'very poor" in London? Few men nro willing to limit thein. reives to hoping for' a reward of merit It In Hnld tliat King Edward tins taken to using snuff. Now, then, let as all sneeze. Wealth doesn't nlwnys bring bappl ntH, but It can generally furnish n IM-ett good Imitation. A man who rattles considerably In .his attic Ih talking of going to the octli pole In an airship. Sympathy Is nil right In Its proper place, but there are times when a kick would bo far rnoro effective. The Trgotablo dealer Ih apt to get Into n peck of trouble when his meas ure falls short of tho standard. The millennium will have arrived when all people shall look upon books m necessities Instead of luxuries. I'rlnci) Henry hays he saw a third of the United Mutes geographically. The man must be a human telescope. Ict us sincerely hope the time may over come when the Alice Itooscvelt will be sent out to blow up our battle--flips. Tho Ioulsvllle health department ays ilmbiirger cheese contains ml robes. We always susplcloiicd as much, A lady who fed her dog u substantial weal nnd forgot to take off his muzzle curly ruined thu pup's conddenco In humanity. As regards Miss Stone, she was duly warned that she was carrying her own jrfsk when sliu ventured Into tho ban Mtn' territory. Honntor Ilnwloy doesn't detest Annr otilstH any more than the avcrago cltl 'seu docs, but he Is a little less parlia mentary In bis stylo of tnlk about them. A nervo specialist asserts that the elrslro for alcoholic stimulants Is often caused by pepper, mustard and the lke. It Is also caused sometimes by Mitt vIcwh of nerve specialists. Tho bankers of this country have unity decided to go Into tho money order business In opposition to tho .font olllee and the express companies. The express companies should retal iate by establishing savings banks. Tlio now president of the Western Union Telegraph Company says the country hasn't enough of tho right kind of young men. Perhaps It would me better to say the country has too many of tho wrong kind of young men. "IHIiy" Htce, the minstrel who waa iMrled ut the expenso of a charitable tautltutlou the other day, drew a sal ary of 1,000 a week In his palmy days. Kvldwitly "Hilly" didn't discover until too late that back ofevvry Joke there to a touch of pathos. The IIumIhii government us given Novelist Oorkl an advertisement likely to make Ills writings as popular In and ut of itussla as Tolstoi's. It bus liircatcned Agitator (lorkl with exllo c Imprisonment for the political opln tons In hU novels. It may be that ttieio is a shrewd literary trust In Hits ala which knows how to advertise without resort to tho ordinary metli ds. A chaplain lu tho navy beglus with 2,U00 as sea pay and ufter live years receives S2,Koo, The pay carries with It many perquisite of lodging, cheapness f fowl and the like and It Is far and away above thu average that thu ludl yldual would receive were hu engaged lu ordinary pastoral work, Thu duties re uot ailerons us a rule, and the fact thut tho positions nre eagerly ought after ( proof positive that tho emolu ments ar adequate. Oertala kindly disposed persons are In tho habit of advising mankind, lu a hrase peculiar to photographers, to "look pleasant" whatever bo their state aud condition, and to Insist that oven aching hearts should bo carried beneath wulllug countenances, Yet Just us there aru peopb who object to those regions where perpetual sunshine prevails and where clouds and storms are unknown, so there nro those who would Uud mo otouous an ever cloudless couute aauce. As an antidote to melancholy Keats suggested that when one's bo loved exhibited soma "rich anger" to Imprison her soft hsiul and let her rave, And feed deep, deep uiou her iKvrlc eyes. Of course there are smiles more heart rending than tears aud tears more cheering than smiles, while tho Chesh ire cut vnrlety of expression Is pleas ant to the point of exasperation. The suillo upon tho face of Leonardo da Vlnel'a celebrated Momm Lisa la uu--endurable to loino people, while over titan It cast a spell uot to be resitted. Tf Id Bflfft flint 41t i tMnwInnH AmlnUiA countenance Is one thnt leans toward smiles, nnd If foreign testimony Ih to be triiRtcd there Ik caiiHo for-a smiling eoniplneqticy In the recently demon stinted facts that American women are the best dressed ntf well as the most Independent nnd problem free of all women. To have the right things on one's body and the wrong things off one's mind In certainly to be as hnppy as It Is possible for womankind to be. lint as for the necessity for smiling In all situations nnd under all circum stances that must rest with tho Indi vidual, who will probably decide that he will look ns he feels nnd smile when he pleases. In Riich a commercial nnd Industrial age as this It Is natural that discussion of the old question as to "the value of n college or academic education In busi ness" should bo revived with Interns! lied earnestness. Instead of resting con tent with the generally accepted fact that the college education embellishes our common life with the refinements of a liberal culture, the public now ap pears to be seriously demanding nu an swer to the question ns to whether It really has any bearing upon Individual success or upon the Industrial and com mercial progress of the race. President O. Stanley Hall of Clark University has snld thnt "It depends largely upon what kind of nu academic course fs taken." On such a scale, be funded, tho old classical course would mark very low, whllo "some of the modern technical and commercial courses and many of those In tho sciences would mark very high." In his recent Inaugural address President llemsen of Johns Hopkins University calls attention to the fnct thnt the connection between the prac tical work of the world and the work car ried on In the laboratories of the univer sities Is more Intimate than Is general ly known. The most striking example of the practical vnluo of education In the material development of a nation has been seen In tho growth of Ger many during the Inst twenty years. Tho German universities, through their greut Investigators and the facilities they novo afforded for original re search, President Itemsen believes huvo done more for Germany's Indus trial advancement than nuy other sin glo ngency. President Itemsen In stanced tho wonderful development of tho coul tar Industry ns an example of tho contributions made to the world's Industrial progress by the university laboratory. The university, through patient research unit experiment, un locked from this apparently useless by product elements thnt have not only been 11 blessing to humanity but which have been the source of great wealth. It Is doubtless u fact that very many of tho great udvances of recent years In manufacture aud commerce may bo traced to thu patient Investigation of a university professor lu a university workshop. We aru now entering upon the greatest Industrial age lu nil human history, when all tho civilized nations are coming Into free competition In tho world's markets. In this world-wide Industrial content thu nation will be su preme whero the manufacturer Is put In closest touch with tho forces of na ture, which nre the sources of wealth, aud In this work the university labora tory will le a mora Important factor thun aver before. Hpolled Servants. lu France It la said that Americana spoil their servants; they arc carelesa aa to money, too good-natured, and lav lull with hollduyu, and tho French ser vant who retunia from service In the United States Ih rvjcttnled as one that la spoiled, In France, or, rather, In Paris, whero tho highest wages are paid for general homework, tho girls receive at tho moat ten dollars' a mouth, and they are allowed but one afternoon a mouth out. They do a great deal of work never asked of a girl In thin coun trybrushing clothes, household mend ing, doing of errands, aud the dally umrketlug. On tho other hand, they do no family washing, all bread, cukes, and deimertH nre gotten outaldo of the house, aa well as many entrees, meat aud fowls, nud It Is even posHlblo to buy cooked vegetables, ho that really there Is much lca work In the kitchen. Then, too, with Imrdwood floors nnd ruga there la less, or at least lighter, work lu caring for tho npartmenta, which offsets the household mending, Huoo-hlncklug nud marketlug. The last, however, Ih not n hardship, fur this con stitutes the girl's dally outing. Ono of lioloit Kllir'. l'miika.
