It w frequently said that Cod ean tot do anything with a discouraged person. Such remarks will not stand the test of thoughtful examination. In the first plaso people will get discouraged in spite of all effort to prevent it. In the second place it ia a fact that God has accomplished a great deal of good work through discouraged labocrs. .

It was a warm day In early spring when the steamer Governor Ramsay tied up at the wharf and Captain John Rowllns leaped ashore. The Governor Ramsay, named In honor of the first territorial governor of Minnesota, piled n the utiber Mississippi. ' past the place where now are situated the two great twin cities of the middle wst St Paul and Minneapolis. Captain Rowllns was In a burry when he went ashore this bright spring afternoon. He woe behind tln i,1, his vessel mvst make several nilles before "tlolng up time." But the Gov ernor Ramsay had aboard her two flut tering hearts that Impatiently longed to beat as one and the master of the packet was In search of a minister or a Justice of the peace. The skipper made his way to the store, one of the few buildings that stood In the clearing by the river bank and Inquired for a mlnUter. "There's none hereabouts." repllej the storekeeper, and then after a mo mnt's thought, added, "But there's George Egbert over there. He's the Justice of the peace." "He'll do." exclaimed the captain and he hastened to the place where the red shlrted Justice was building a cabin. "Sure," was the ready response of the young carpenter-Justice when be learned what the steamboat man de sired. "I haven't been Justice long nnd I've never married anyone yet, but I guess X can try." Bo saying, he (n Ih hsvit with Cnntnln Row tins, wiping the moisture rom his facek; utmost to write an article which will win favor and neck as he strode Wong. . . . . t . . of that same editor, and he succeeds. Ihis has been hausting discouragement. Such an one, ' perforce of his constitutional tempcrment, has exalted ideals, and, as he will necessarily fail to realize those ideals and, as he will necessarily fail to realize those Ideals at once, he is frequently- smitten both with disap pointment and discouragement. ; But wherein is' the use of discouragement! It lies in the fact that it makes an opportunity for the discouraged one to consider specially the ground of his failure to perform his task. He may discover a lack of preparation for the task; or he may see that he has been too slovenly or slack in his work. Take the case of some young person who has written an article for some periodical. He sends it to the edi tor, expecting its acceptance. It is returned to him in ashort time, accompanied, perhaf8, by a kind note. He is discourage'd. At first he is inclined not to attempt to produce another article for any paper. Then, after some re flection, he. r?l.TW fa wake his discouragement p occasion for spurring all of his powers into produc ing an article which will far excell the rejected one. With his powers of mind mightily aroused he does is enthusiasm. ' . When a man's heart is so big that it goes out to, all men, when he feels an interest in what interests them, he possesses an open sesame to all hearts. In the captain's cabin Egbert met Reuben M. Richards, sheriff of Ben ton, one of the three counties of the lerru'Jry vi jujuiirBuia, uiiu aim tMi. V. Jfunson, the bride-to-be. .The young Justice was personally acquaint ed with both, and after many stam mers and blushes from both parties he performed, his first wedding cere mony. Captain Rowllns stood by and gave the bride away and the crew of the Governor Ramsay witnessed the event. Then with the remark "no charges, the pleasure of uniting two such good people Is worth the fee,, and I wish you well," George Egbert return to shore and again took "up his work. The first wedding In the terri tory of Minnesota had been solemnised. "That was In I860," mused Captain George Egbert veteran bailiff of the United States district court," and I'm M years of age now, but the occasion of my first wedding ceremony. Is as green 5n my memory as If It were yes terday. Since then I have officiated at many weddings, but none that I've ever performed, or heard of since, have been as unlaue." Captain Egbert Is well known ' In Portland, where he has resided for the past 1 years. He has been an officer of the federal court for several years, and In spite of his age la a very ac tive man and takes great delight In "spinning yarns with the boys." The captain went to Minnesota shortly after It was organized as a territory and the wedding ceremony related occurred at a time when most of the country was a wilderness and there were but three organised coun ties, Ramsny, Jefferson and Benton.

Mr. Kipling confes ses that he had become greatly discouraged at the time when composed "The Recessional." He felt so leaden and limp over his seeming failures that he scarcely knew what to do; and yet that very poem made his fame resplendent all over the world.' Enthusiasm needs only direction to turn it into' success. And the direction it needs is system. And enthusiasm, like system, is for stenographers as well as for statesmen ; for cash girls as well as for capitalists; for you as well as for your neighbor.' Enthusiasm has covered the earth with its accom-. plishments. Enthusiastic republics have vanquished , dried-up empires. Enthusiastic business men have captured the trade of staid campetitors. Enthusi astic young men have built up businesses where stolid capital has lacked the courage to try. . ; , To understand men you must be able to put your-, self in their place, think their thoughts, and appre- , ciatQ their prejudices. This is the key which unlocks ' all secrets, the magnate, which attracts, strangers and ; holds friends. But a pretended sympathy will iiot do. However studiously he may school himself in simulating a pleasant smile ; however well he may effect a hearty handshake, he will surely fail unless ? his heart is in his action. He can got play a part 'and i expect to be taken in earnest. Sycophancy is nevef the result of sympathy, but of inordinate self-esteem, j True politeness comes from the heart. But sympathy ) must be controlled unless it becomes a weakness, and ; energy must be Caref nly directed lest it be wasted. J Knowledge is absolutely hec&saFy", for gilided by r and persistency, while sympathy gives tact and pa ? tience, all of which are essential qualities. "Beauty is but skin- deep w was probably meant , to disparage beauty. In ' stead it tells how easy that beauty is to attain. "There vis no beauty like the beauty of health" was also meant t to dis parage. Instead it encour ages beauty.

Mr. and Mrs. Fla vel Dr. and Mra' Pilkington, Mr. and from long experience on the ground, declares that the action contemplated by the signers to the appeal would be a grave error of judgment and would frustrate the very object which they have In view. He says what must be obvious to any man with ordinary In tellingnce and the power of a few seconds' consecutive thought that th daclaration by either political " party for Filipino Independence would be promptly known throughout the Islanda and that agitators, malcon tents tnd all the other restless ele ments would Immediately crystallise, demand that a definite time be fixed for the performance of the promise and discount to the great detriment of the peaceful evolution which must come before the Islanders are fitted for self-government, any acts and com mittals by the United, States toward autonomy. The result would , be, of course, only confusion and trouble, to no possible good. The law of evolu tion, as President Harris in his Insti tute address so clearly points out. Is the true method of the adjustment of affairs, and that Is of slow but peace- ...wittnn - - The best thing In the world that can happen to the United States and the Philippines at the present time Is peaceful and orderly development; th letting weU enough alone; 6pportunl tles for commerce, transportation, bus iness and all' other things that go to make up activity and prosperity, and Mra Rarrlaon Alln Mr. ' anA Mn Carleton Allen.

The Filipino manifesto is another excellent example of honorable and well-meaning men who, with the best of motives, go in the wrong way and at the wrong time about the right thing. As a practical matter of fact there Isn't the slightest probability that either of the great political part ies will pay more than the most re mote and respectful consideration to the suggestion that a declaration for the Independence of the Islands be In corporated In Its platform, and so after the first tipple on the surface of af- agitators, disturbers ' and doctrinaires , who are never content unless they1 are managing according to their own no tions the affairs of others. Secretary Taft also settles a minor. Issue In al most effective and common sense way, by explicitly denying the request that Slxto Lopes, the professional Filipino patriot nnd ally of Agulnaldo, by giv ing a hundred thousand dollar bond,, may be allowed to return to the1 Ulanda without taking the oath of al- leglance to ' the United States. The" 'v secretary very properly says that If he means to behave himself, there Is no reason why he should not take the ' oath, and If be does not there hi no reason why he should be permtted to land merely to make a disturbance.
