which the race has departed. In no oth

Health and Long Life
THE world today is enamored , of
success, and It is a healthy sign.
, "By their frujts ye shall know
them," Indicates that results are
i demanded by the highest, au
thority. And If thus demanded, they
must be attainable, Nevertheless, fear
of . faliiir or . the conviction that one
has failed, is the heaviest blow to nrei
and health bf man or woman, success,
on the other hand. Is a great energizer;
It renews flagging forces ana prepares
him who Is conscious of it for greater
achievement. Is there anything more
Important, then, than to know how
failure and fear of failure may be elim
inated T
-The prime difficulty is that success
Is commonly understood, as a cut and
drlea affair, a particular achievement
or kind of achievement that another has
made, and . that is now to be made-ror
attempted by; us. Ridiculous! Each
man's success must be as strictly orlgr
inal and unique as the man himself Is
original and unique,' ; There are no du
Dlicates In nature-and would man undo
nature? No wonder that such conceit
fails, This , is to attempt the Impos
sible, like art ambition to ride a broom
stick to the. moom , When tha truth
takes hold of us that success Is. a pe
culiar thing, antl foreshadowed. In they
nature of the Individual, then is suc
cess 'made possible, and only Industry
and persistence are needful ; to . its
achievement ,.. , ..
"Know ThyseH."
The "motto of every aspiring soul
must be, "Know thyself, trust thyselt,
be thyself." Turn your search within.
'Listen to the divine whisperings. Tour
inmost longings and . aspirations must
determine your trend; they reveal your
talents; then heed them. The great
general purpose of well ordered Irving
is service, usefulness;' but the forms of
usefulness are infinite. In this wide
field of choice there Is a particular
task for every InQlvldual, and the gen
ius of the Individual will? make the
right selection, if only that genius be
permitted to speak. Work ' thus chosen
Is fitted to the special powers of him
who undertakes It, and If prosecuted
with full faith success, is assured.' . . -v
This Is a kind of Individualism that
will clear the air of envy and covetous
hess, and banish the strife they raise
up, just as fast as it Is understood and
adopted. For air thsrrangllng of man
with man Is due ta the fact that no
body "listens to himself." and so no
body knows what he really wants.- In
stead, about every ; one looks to see
what his fellows are after and straight
way he goes after it too, and fists,
clubs, 'guns or .diplomacy award the
SP011S. '-
' 'iToJllaatrmteri 1. heard an aggrieved
patriot the other day, .denouncing the
injustice ' that lets one class ; of men
make automobiles for another -class of
men tq ride In. This Is a common ex
ample of picking out another man's
success to Imitate, instead of having a
success all ones own. it did not ap
pear that the automobile makers would
be "Intrinsically happier for . riding Jn
the machines: but because other men
rile,' they must rule. To a rllhlnter-t-5ted
outsider it is plain that the mak
ers have decidedly the best part In the
whole automobile business.
. .. ' . ; V "
Curse of Envy. .
. Beware envy, if you would succeed;
for envy forever stops the ears and
blinds the eyes to one's genuine de
sires and real needs. . Success attained
under the, rule of envy Is always a
sham, yielding neither "happiness nor
peace of mind. It is when a man delves
deep and learns the needs of his real
self and seeks to realize them, that' he
finds the world is opulent and his re
wards are sure. Then he is In har
mony with the general scheme and all
is well with hjm. Such a man escapes
the competition of all the success an
archists and imitators, because those
unthinking persons are- drawn by the
largest crowd, measuring the desirabil
ity of a thing by the number of per
sons wno are trying to corner it, ,
As this true Idea of success . grows
upon th5 world, there will be. with
drawn from the senseless and exhaust
lng competition now prevailing an ever
Increasing number of those who have
learned to want their own," and who
know that 'such' wanting Is certain to
be satisfied, v So will the amount . of
strife Ae lessened, and like every sound
reform this one 111 grow by compound
ing its gains; every step of progress
will make the next step eaoler and In
dividual and social growth . will be
marvelously accelerated. i- i. -
that wonders are worked, whenever we
do not Interfere by wrons: living. AnJ
as true as It is that rlslit. living re
stores the tainted to health, so true Is
It that wrong life taints the healthy.
Time Works Reform.
Logical Eugenics
What a long, slow way,, thinks ovir
slap-dash reformer. N What becomes of
the children of - parents whose skulls
are top thick, or whose lives are too
busy, to learn? Pause a moment, kind
sir, or madam, and answer me this:
Did you ever know deep-seated disease
to be .cured in . a minute? ' We do not
expect lightning-like cure for the in
dividual, then why should we for the
race? :And Under your legislative core,
what becomes of the near-defective?
Is his lot the happier, or Is it In any
way s the better, for your prohibitions?
Out of 'life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness," to be left only left, he
will scarcely thank you for your magna
nimity;, better go the whole Spartan
figure and kill off the unfit and be
done -with it. ,v.'.-i'".s
But' indeed, this way that regards
the right of every Individual.- Is the
very shortest road to the goal of health
for, the race. Just the saying here, Jn
these words. 'that here Is a chance for
every weakling, that has "enough vitality
to grow up, a chance for him to grow
stronger, .ana to Bequeath to his pro
geny a better constitution than he him.
self now has Just-this -will bring cour
age and renewed effort that will bet
ter the condition of some certain Indi
viduals, and so better the race condi
tion. And every, time such words are
spoken they bear,-fruit , 4We heed mora

hibition. ...
from the system.. Regard' every acute
attack of disease as such an. effort, an1
a til it by giving the digestive system , a
rest and administer only the medicines
of water and fresh air. For the rest,
control fevers by the cold compress or
pack; relieve the bowels when necessary
by enemas. Treated thus, disease be
comes a friend and leaves the patient
better than before. ,
From Weakness to Strength.
On such a plan as I have sketched In
6utline, the weaklings who survive
childhood and more will survive than
on any1 other plan will as men and
women , beeome an -element of strength
and not of weakness to society and the
race,. - . ' -: t .
On the plan of tha physical culture
and medical extremists, who' would pro
hibit all persons inheriting disease
taints from marrying, : civilized -man
would speedily disappear, and the earth
would again be left to the savage and
the wilderness.
' A charge, however, Is laid oq the par
ent who brings , a -weaklings into the
world. ; No matter what the'effort and
ttme necessary , to brlng such child up
to a fair standard, the. parent Is in duty
bound to make it. No social duties, no
church work, no frills of fashion, no
study clubs, are for such mothers, until
they have discharged this first duty. .
Surgical Evolution -
snHERE is one sura way, and only
I one, by which our Insane asylums
I ' and homes for defectives can be
emptied or, rather, their 'popu
lation reduced to the minimum.
But because the true method Is a slow
process, our impatient reformers waste
their wind sna strength cnasing pnan
toms. And the race loses by compound
interest: for until the bad world be
gins to mendr-it-cohtlnues to -rufr deeper

often told; but in the-effort to eradicate
these and tit otner "tatnis irom tne
growing child. Yes; and in the effort to
prevent the untainted child from de
veloping such tendencies. Nature Is
with us here. The highest, laws of God
and man are with us here. There Is no
brutal Invasion of lndivldual-41berty in
this method. Gentleness and" not force
does the work.' It Is not legislation di
rected at near-defectives we want but
education extended to the parents and
fuardlans of all childhood. , . . : 1: -. " ;
Phyiicai Regeneration." "
"Every birth is a physical regenera-
Ulofl,". says Dr. Felix Oswald, and this
tells of nature's way. There Is no
question that there Is ijn" operation, be
yond man's control, a constant effort
at race renewal. For example, a prop
erly mated couple of Inferior physique,
living a hygienic life, will havechlldren
of better physique, than themselves.
Again, a weakling born, placed under
tha best conditions," will develop into
strength and robustness,
i .But can the "tainta"5 be eradicated?
Most assuredly they can. and are, time
and again. , Right living brings man In

never eat more frequently than thrice

F
OR. several .years past marvelous
i accounts have appeared ' in the
- press of the grafting of organs and,
members In and upoA animals, in
cluding man. Kidneys have been
transplanted; . ears, fingers ; and other
members have been grafted, with never
a failure recorded. One case was .that of
a western mlneowner, w'ho by some mls
chance lost an' ear. He ; went' to New
Tork; there found a man willing" to part
with an ear for a Consideration, and av
surgeon: willing to undertake the grafting,-
The rich' man Jeft the hospital
with two ears on his head, -while the
poor man went home with money enough
to make him obllyious to his scar. An
other case was that of a woman who had
lost a r finger Ah advertisement brought
her a woman with a finger to dispose of,
and the exchange was effected with en
tire success, ,
Still another case was as near to Port
land as Standpoint. Idaho, where Dr, C.
P. 'Stackhouse removed three inches of
the femur of. ah 18 months .old infant
daughter of Charles Bentley of Clark's
Fork, and substituted a section of bone
from the leg of a young sheep. The
bone,4 wr read, "was packed. In whlppud
blood taken from the sheep, so thst all
the nourishment possible could be given
for tha building up of the transplanted
bone."
Where Is the End? : . A'- i'y
' . Dr. Alexis Carrel at the Rockefeller
institute Jiaa also reported mlraclea-of
surgery. He has transplanted the kid
neys of cats, and with such success that
it has jseen predicted that similar feats
would yet be performed for human be
ings. The only, difficulty that Dr, Car
ret could foresee was In the scarcity of
sound organs to transplant Thus, a
criminal might be executed, and Immedi
ately be placed on Ice, and whenever or
gans were, needed they could be neatly
removed and successfully Implanted In
the man needing them, and this could be
continued as long as anything remained
in stock. "
It Is an attractive proposition, though
the old conundrum of; the Jackknlf e
might arise. Lose the blades .and put
In-new. lose, the handle, and replace It,
and does It remain 4he same old knife?
When hearts are transplanted, -will a
criminal's heart change the nature of a
philanthropist? .'',.
The point where all these tales become
fascinating, they end. like the serials in
the old New York Ledger. What an anx
ious World wants to know is, does the
new combination work? How' many such
cases have lived a year after the graft
ing? How many transplanted fingers
and ears, " to say nothing of kidneys,
have stayed transplanted? Did the Idaho
infant last a month after she was given
the leg of a cheep? If the surgeons who
have participated In these creative ef
lorts will please tell us what came after,
we shall all be relieved of suspense. "
An Exchange of features. ,
For this' opens up an Interesting new
field of speculation and trade. .Th
passion for swapping is strong In the
race. The boy trades knives, tops, mar
bles and every-other treasure he. owns.
The man swaps horses, fish stories and
sometimes homes, If the dissatisfied can
exchanges features in their physical
equipment a long felt want will be met.
A glance. about us shows many instances
where the exchange of noses or ears or
other features would leave both parties
better balanced and more beautiful. And
where Individuals are unaware pf their
want of symmetry and proportion so
ciety can step in and supply the lack.
By act of legislature the general Inter
ests of the community can be conserved
and individual defects corrected. - - '
The world' may " not! yet be esthetic
enough to demand such change's in the
Interests of beauty.' but "such casea as
the following would clearly come Within
the province of the state.; ' Take a" man
of fine physique and-brain, who is han
dicapped by an lnactiv. liver, and an
other with no physique or brala worth
mentioning, ' but .with the One strong
feature 6f a healthy liver; let the two
exchange livers and the community has
gained one able citizen and lost nothing,
for the weakling Js still able to vote,
and he never could do much more, Ob
jections may- be made-on -the soars -ot
nersonal liberty, but what Is personal
liberty when the Interests of society are
in the balance?
Does not the Individual belong to the
tate? Have hot compulsory ' vaccina
tion,- surgery for idiots snd lunatics, and
manv other established laws eeiuea
that Innr rn?
All we are Waiting for la the surgeon's

Oil is now California's biggest industry,-, employing thot.

as the best fuel, California will have the world for Its constant
' market Already the industry has been transferred from the
plane of speculation into that of a solid and permanent addition
to the world's list of dignified and, enduring, business enter
