Soimo men nro wingless nngels niitl some men arc ImrnlcsH devils. A blenched Monde 1h nlwnys iipl cIoiih of other women with blonde luilr. When n young dlplomnt or nnny ofU ccr innrrles n inlllloiinliess It's n sign of true lovo. President Itoosevelt nays ho Is go ing to give up hunting. Not trust hunt ing, wo hope. Music tuny bo tho food of lovo, but lifter mnrrlngo thero Is npt to bo n demnnd for liver nnd bncon. Every tlmo Carnegie spooks of "thooo dny of materialism" tho echo of his voice Hounds suspiciously like n chortle. A New York physlclnn says nutomo tiling will euro insoiunln. Too often, tiowover, nutomoblllng puts tho wrong persons to sleep. The Immigration question would not bo serious If thono who find fault with this country when they get hero would pack up nnd go back. Senator Hmoot says there novor was A Mormon tramp. Surely, a man with half a dozen homes ought to be willing to stay within domestic circles. A Iloston minister declares thnt "what this country needs Is n king." And this from Iloston, tho hcad-conter and bulwark of nntl-lmperlallsinl Ilunynu's muck raker was a man who never looked up. Since hearing from thu President, our muck rakers uro looking up nnd Hhowlug n dlsposl Hon to rnko higher. "Tho Hln of Bllouco" In tho title of a new book. Evidently tho author didn't Intend It ni n book that would bo sultnblo for presentation by loving husbands to their wives. A Kansas Judge cured a man of ha bitual drunkcnuoNS by sentencing him to spend two weeks In bed. The Kan sas way of doing tilings Is always something original nnd unique. Bun FmnclHCo may bo shalcon by fu ture earthquakes, but It will never gain bo wIjhhI out of existence by fiauioH, In tho now town wooden build ings will bo scarcer than yellow bluo birds. Tho decision of a Chicago religious organization that women uro no long er young ut 40 may be technically cor rect, but It has no practical value. How can It bo known when women are -107 ' Tho uwful flro of 1871 which swept over Chicago destroyed 18,000 build ing, caused 200 dentin, inndu home less 70,000 people and destroyed proper ty to tho value of ?2(K),000,0()a Vet Chicago has been rebuilt, and Its dis aster forgotten. Although nearly three years have ouNHod since thu King mid Queen of Bervln wero murdered by jKilltlcnl con plrators, the inurdororn, or mnny of them, aro Mill unpunished. Oreat llrlt aln has refused to enter Into diplomatic relations with thu new king so long us this condition e.xUtn. The latest uuws from llelgrade Is that tho king Intends to retire the guilty army oil! ccrs as Noun as possible. Naturally, ho has had to act cautiously, for ho knows that men who killed ono king would not hesitate long to kill another If an udequnto excuse wero presented. Nobody caricatures John I). Itocke foller when ho gives away money. That Is one advantage of being a millionaire. All sorts of pictures nro mado of him In the gold Held, In autos, etc., but when tio gives 100,000 or $500,000 to a worthy cnuso we hear no Jokes about him and but little Is said about tho money being tainted. Tho starving at Ban Francisco did not stop to Inquire what sort of a year's dividend from Standard Oil the $100,000 John gave them might bo. Tho loaves and tho aieat and blankets wero as acceptable from tho prottta of Btnndurd Oil us from steel shares or coal or from uuy other source. Tim was when everybody walked ud thought It no disgrace. For then walking was only a degree slower than tho quickest means of locomotion, and by that token respectable. Hut who thinks of walking uowi If you go Into a shoeshop where Ilfty styled of Hue footgear are offered you won't llnd a shoo you could walk a mllu In without being crippled, and though you call for tho best grade of stockings they are worn through tho tlrst tlmo you put them on If you go afoot. Nobody who Is anybody Is expected to walk any more. Tho trolloys and tho devil wagons have made walking Intolera bly slow, and the airships, when they come, will doubtless abolish It for good and all. And that Is progress. Tim voice which clamors for stockings thnt will wear or slices that aro easy Is a voice out of tho past, the echo of dead traditions. It Is ono of tho decrees of fnto that uo great disaster Is without 1U attend ant botieflU, A crushing blow may be dcult a community, but tho country profit from tho sufferings of those upon whom mlsfortuno hus laid a heavy hand. In Ban Francisco a dis trict twenty-six mile In clrcumfer enco lien devastated by earthquake and tire. Coincident with tho announce ment that tho city will bo rebuilt at onto, tho llnanclal loss Is placed at $.'1,000,000. This means that approxi mately a llko amount will bo expended for building materials and furnishings within tho next few years, aside from tho vast sums that will bo paid for labor In clearing uway tho debris and rebuilding the ravaged territory. Food stuffs, clothing nnd other supplies will bo required In great quantltlei long after tho temporary needs of tho suf ferers havo been relieved by tho ready responsoof thenatlon to appeals for aid. In tho upbuilding of n now and greater city which ambitious and determined Ban Franciscans aro already planning, work will bo furnished for thousands of skilled operatives throughout tho country. Tho mills and factories will bo called upon to meet tho require ment!, and tho present heavy demands In every direction will bo furthor aug mented as a result of Ban Francisco's misfortune. There Is no cnuso for re joicing In this fact Could even those who will profit by tho catastrophe hare had their way they would have de creed otherwise. Novorthelesa, asldo from any benefits which may accrue to that city through Its regeneration, It Is evident that tho Industrial prospects of tho nation havo been materially en hanced through tho losses to which tho pooplo of Ban Francisco and adjoining towns have been subjected. "What hath God wrought It was tho first public messago ever flashed by telegraph. That was In 1841. Tho lightning which Franklin had harness ed and brought from tho skies wns be coino tho message-bearer of mnii. And tho world marveled. Now a swifter ugent, tho lumlulferous ether, which permeates the furthest npaco of tho universe and Is so lleet that It encir cles the globo In less than tho wink ing of an eye, has carried n 700-word messago from the American continent over tho Atluntlc to tho coast of Eu rope. And again tho marveling world exclaims, "What hath God wrought?" The greater wonder Is not telegraphy, nor wireless communication, but tho mind of man which conceived them both. Tho laws nnd manifestations of naturo aro changeless. Only tho mind and spirit of man havo progressed. His Intellect has becomo so acuto and no In tuno with tho elements about him that he Is growing to grasp their meaning. All naturo Is a wonderland. Miracles abound on every side. Many at tho lower animals aro endowed with senses so acuto as to seem to man uncanny. Fish can boo In the darkest depths of tho ocean. Thu mooso can hear a sound for many miles. In comparison, man's sight and hearing aro significant. Hut his splendid Intellect has ho aided his senses that with his tclcscopo ho can gar.0 Into tho furthest mysteries of tho heavens; with his microscope ho cnu penetrato tho minutest secrets of In llultcslmal llfo; with tho X-ray ho can seo through his very flesh nnd seek hidden disease and Injury; through his telephone ho can hear tho voices of frlonds hundreds of miles away; and now ho has spanned tho vastuess of ocean by his understanding of tho workings of nature. Electricity Ih not tho wonder of tho age. Wireless teleg raphy Is not tho modem miracle. Tho ninrvnloim thing which God hath wrought Is tho development of tho mind of man. I'roirulu tit the lU-aeiin. Ono day a couplo of my friends were sitting on tho river bank, when they heard tho cry of n frog In distress. Following tho direction from which tho sound mine, they discovered n Miaku In tho net of swallowing n frog. Just then another frog, evidently at tracted by tho distressing cries of Its mato In Jeopardy, hopped up to tho scene of action. For a moment It sat blinking nt tho enemy; then leaped for ward, seized tho snako by tho neck and tugged It Into tho river. Tho water quickly poured botween the snako's distended Jaws, and It was, of course, compollod to roloaso Its vic tim In order to escape drowning. This It promptly did, and tho Migrated frog awnm nwny with Its plucky mate; while tho bnfllvd snako wriggled, as best It could, to thai shore. Woman's Homo Companion for May. VmIb ltr.
