Knler Who KxtrcUoi Vast rowers with Ilcncflttn the Country and Jn- tic. to th. Indlvldual-An Autocrat , ,n c monh for Tncntycliilit lenrs. When Wnrren Hastings wss charged wltli using Ills despotic power In India for private gain, ho cynically replied: "When I think of niy chances I am surprised at my moderation." There Is n despot of to-day who has had far better chances of "graft" than even Warren Hastings. out never used them. That man Is l'ortlrlo Diaz, for twenty-olght years the autocrat of Mexico. Ills power over tho pobllc treasury during that long period has been nbsolute, but even his worst ene mies do not allege that ho ever robbed his country of n ceut And that Is In deed remarkable In a Lntlu-American country. Diaz Is the hero of tho Mexican army. When ho was a young soldier, tho "Hero of l'uebln" was the most admired and popular otllcer In the pa triot army that fought tho French In vaders. Ho was always the first In the charge, tho last to retreat, tho quickest to volunteer for tho post of danger. He held his own llfo as noth ing In comparison with the cause. Yet no officer was more careful of tho lives and comfort of his men. Throughout his career Dlax has paid great attention to tho welfare of tho Mexican army. Ho often visits the soldiers unexpectedly In their camps and barracks, tastes their food, finds out whether they nro regularly paid I pnro of from 73 cents to SI a day. It I tnlie. n i-rwul newer, however, to cam St a day. "The bulk of the work Is done by tho women In their lodges In connec tion with their usual domestic duties. Women frequently earn S10 each In a month. Mary Washeo lately made SIS Her Industry Is more apparent when It Is known that we pay nt the rate of about 2ty cents a square Inch for solid beading. Indian women are the most Industrious wom en In tho land. In primitive days their llfo was one of constant toll, and In fallowing civilized ways they nro not shirkers. At Mohonk lodge an Indian woman can find employment at any tlmo at wages that will add much to the comfort of herself and children. "Mohonk lodge has advance orders for more than $1,000 worth of bead work. Our output this year will amount to fully $5,000. The experi ment has been so successful that sub stations will bo established at other places In Oklahoma for the sale of beadwork and the employment of In dlnn women. In the sale of our goods we tlgure their exact cost aud add 25 per cent for the retail trade, but this will be Increased. Traders pay 10 per cent less than the list price and com plain that their margin for profit is not big enough. We purpose giving the traders a 23 per cent reduction and will advanco retail prices in proportion."

Thus It Is Uiat the Mexican army Is the best in Latin America, not even excepting the Prussianized troops of Chile. It Is mainly composed of full blooded Indians, who arc readily dis ciplined and as brave as men could be. Foreign officers say they are second to no other troops as marchers and fighters, and In frugality and content ment they are far ahead of most of the world's soldiers. Diaz Is proud of them, and they look upon blm almost as a god. Sometimes his officials In Mexico City require his presence urgently to decide a knotty point or sign some Im portant papers. "What has become of tho rresldent to-day?" they ask one another excitedly. The answer Is always much the 'KBVlIe has heard of an old wom an, 100 miles away, whose husband was killed fighting for the Independ ence of Mexico. She is living In pov erty. Immediately the rresldent has dropped everything and gone off to see her and to arrange for her future. He would never delegate such a task to a subordinate. When he became President, away back in 1873, before his principles be come known, bis relatives and friends nsed to go to him for easy jobs under the government They expected to bo allowed to plunder the treasury In tho good old-fashioned Mexican way, and they were very much disgusted when Diaz made It plain that he neither In tended to loot on his own account nor to allow anybody else to do so. Since then Diaz has dealt sternly with many of bis family and his tribe, who. Having been placed In public of fice, abused their trust. Although Diaz has been an auto crat for twenty-eight years, wielding absolute sway over all the affairs of bis country, bo Is unspoiled by power. Ills mind Is broad and his views liber al. Ho Is not above taking advice or admitting that be has made a mistake. President Diaz Is now 73 years old. Scientific Method of Kemovlog the Objectionable Elements. Ilaln water, while percolating through the ground to find Its leva! In the surfaco or deep streams, picks up a largo quantity of carbonic acid, by tho presence of which the chalk (car bonato of llmel. raagneslan limestone (chalk and carbonate of magnesia), Ironstone, soda, potash and a few oth er compounds arc enabled to dlssolvo and are held delicately and unstably In solution as blcarbonates, says the Engineering Magazine. Now the fundamental operation of the softening of waters hard from this cause Is to remove the excess of car bonic acid by the addition of some sub stance with which It readily combines, and preferably oue that forms an In soluble or only very slightly soluble compound. Quicklime (calcium ox ide) when carefully dealt with Is the best of these on account of Its cheap ness and splendid efficiency. The quantity of excess carbonic acid In the hard water Is determined by analy sis, and from the result the required amount of calcium oxide Is calculated to completely satisfy this In the proc ess of forming chalk. The lime Is add ed to the water In the form of milk of lime of known strength, and what might be termed the beautiful. part of the reaction is the double transforma tion that takes place. The newly added milk of lime not only becomes Insol uble chalk by combination with the carbonic dioxide, but reduces the bl carbonates of lime and magnesia to the Insoluble monocarbonates, and all three fall together In the form of a heavy and rapidly clearing precipitate. The bicarbonate of Iron when robbed of its carbon dioxide falls with the chalk and magnesium carbonates In the form of red rust, the superabun dant water remaining perfectly clear nnd soft. The potash and soda, of course, remain dissolved, but are not In any way harmful If present In only small quantities. THINGS WORTH KNOWING. REVIVE ART OF BEADWORK. Indian Women Make Considerable Money by the Industry, Women and girls of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indian tribes are main taining a successful Industry at Col ony, O. T.. through tho assistance of the Iter. Walter O. Itoe, a missionary of the Dutch Reformed church, aided by Mrs. Itoe, a cultured Boston wom an. Mr. Roe is the nephew of E. P. Roe, the novelist, says tho Kansas City Star. When Mr. nnd Mrs. Roe went to the Mohonk conference of In dian workers In 16US they told of tho need of employment among the Indian women in rWutbweetern Oklahoma, and suggested that Indian beadwork, then in its decadence among Uiese In dians, bo revived and the products old wherever a market could be found. In a few minutes enough money-was glw;u to erect tho building now known as Mohonk lodge. It is a substantial one story and a half frame structure, with' one large salesroom filled with Indian curios and all man ner of beadwork; another used as a workroom, and others reserved as apartments for the matron In charge and ber assistants. "At first our greatest difficulty was in finding n market for our beadwork; our trouble now Is In supplying the demand," said Mr. Roe. "Our bead ,work finds a ready market from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and some has been sold In Europe. The workman Wn Is as (rood as tan be found any where, and the patterns are original nd attractive. To save waste tho su- Keep Brave Heart Each nay Comes as a Freeh Olft. It Is more natural to talk about the faults of our friends than It Is to talk about their virtues; we understand them better. The most reckless spendthrift In the World Is tho one who squanders time. When a married woman sallies forth to look after her rights her husband stays at home reviewing his wrongs. A man calls ecru, tan and fawn color by the generic term of "drab" he knows a stylish gown when he seen it Encouraging tho growth of high in- t crests in children is ono of tho best means of preventing those 'which are unworthy. Every act we do is full of tho power of reproduction; wo are tracked and bunted by our own deeds, and after we havo lost them from view and from memory they reappear and claim as a right the mastery over our fate. It's a hard matter to reconcile our selves to the fact that knowledgo Is power when we possess nil tho knowl edge and the other fellow has the power. Each day comes as a fresh gift. Meet with n bravo heart all that Is In the day's portion, but shrink not from phantom lions or from shadows that seem to blot the sun. No man should be Intrusted with power who will not use It for some good. We should Imitate the things we ad mire In other that our own nature TOPIC OF THET1M ES. A CHOICE SELECTION OF INTER.

A noted American reached London when the English newspapers were charging American women with vul garity because a large crowd of dress makers and their assistants filled the streets about the church where an English duke recently married an American girl The visitor was asked by a reporter what be bad to say on the subject. "You have to be three thousand miles away beforo you can even suspect American women of vul garity," was the quick response. It Is not often that a monument Is erected in honor of the tactfulness of a hostess In a trying situation. One of the few such. If not the only one, Is a boulder from the battlefield of Harlem Heights, removed to Tark avenue in New York, to mark the site of the home of Mrs. Robert Murray, who entertained and so detained the British officers under Genera Howe while the American troops under (Jen era! Putnam were escaping from the city. The monument, which bears an inscription on brass setting forth Mrs. Murray's achievement, was dedicated recently. What a difference there might have been In American history had Mrs. Murray been a less capable hostess! Big headlines in the newspapers told of the killing of eight persons and the Injury of more than a score of others in a recent wreck. The blame for the catastrophe was charged against a brakeman of a freight train who. It was alleged, bad failed to flag tho passenger train. The brakeman had been on continuous duty for twenty two hours, according to his state ment. If that was the case who will say that tho brakeman was at fanlt and not the management of tho rail road which had kept blm at his post beyond tho ierlod of physical endur ance? It Is a criminal practice, almost Inconceivable, that railroads will en danger tho lives of hundreds of pas sengers by trusting their safety to em ployes whom they havo worked to the point of exhaustion.

So tho mother who wishes her cbll dron to be loving aud well-bred must pay the exacting due of patience by day aud by night, of cheerful sym patby even In weariness and Illness, and of unflagging devotion to the de tails of household life. The girl who resolves to become a pianist must pay the price of long days of drudgery spent In compelling reluctant muscles to do the bidding of the will nnd that without hope that the discipline may ever be relaxed. Lowell, In charming piece of verse, after warning us that the "Earth gets Its price for what Earth give us," assures bis read er: 'Tls Heaven nlono that Is given away. "Tls only God may be bad for the ask lug.

In a recent address to students, admirably epitomized an Important secret to sue. cess: "If you take my rdvlce," ho ssld. "you will never work for hire. If you work for hire, life will havo little else for you but drudgery, and eight hours per day ten hours per day at the most Is all that you ran stand and keep your health. Rut If you work for the accomplishment of the thing you are employed to do, you can work sixteen or eighteen hours a day, and life will be full of sunshine nnd song. Qod Implanted In the human mind tho desire to do things." In other words, real success lies not so much in what wo can get out of our work as what wo ran put Into it If we lovo our work we have taken a long strldo not only toward happiness, but townrd arcorn pllshmcnt that Is worth while. The man who gets no more nut of his work than mere support, though he tuny ! enabled to live In most lavish style. Is no more than an animal. The hog works only for n living, ami that Is all ho gels or cares for. Rut man. with his emotions, sensibilities and aspira tions, requires more. With man, work Is not merely n means, but an end. He roust work that ho may live, hut he also lives Hint ho may work. It is a melancholy fact that millions of men nro forced to devote nearly all their lives to sustaining life. It seems n slavery. Yet the drudgery is due, not to the Incessant work, but to the dislike of It. While one man bitterly laments tho cruelty of his fate, an other working nt bis elbow- finds his labors sweet.
