A week airo the writ- er pft8sed over to that shore from Kit a1 a whence no messages come by tele- graph, by cable, by letter nor by nhnnA There is eternal silence between the writer and the, recipl- ent. The "someday" habit causeu the delay. The letter was neglect ed, an answer being intended for "someday" in the future; but that "someday" will never come now. Everyone has the "someday" habit. It may be in small affairs, it may be in great, it may be in all. This man smokes; he will quit "someday;" that woman scolds. she will quit "someday;" that person is outside the pale of decent society. he will reform "Bomeday;" Wa love this dear one or that; we will tell them so "somedav :" that individual is not a christian, but he will be "some day;" this piece of work ought to be finished today, but it can wait until "someday." And so on in definitely. , But the "someday" may never dawn for you. The smoker may fall asleep with a filthy pipe be- Cheap I negatives einrk nil nf the nefratives taken - o , fhia citV.

Today is yours; no more. "Make hay while the eun shines" for clouds may be hovering near. The "someday" habit is only a polite name for neglect. Don't be a vic tim to its uncertain influence. It may cause you sorrow, aye, it is almost certain to do so. A Plea For Fraternity. (President Roosevelt.) No man is a good American I could put it e'tronger the worst enemy of American institutions is the man who seeks .to excite one set of Americane against their fellow-Americans. And it matters nothing whether the appeal is made in the fancied interest of a class, of a creed, or of a section, the man is a traitor to our institutions and spirit who makes it. We can make this government a success only by proceeding in accordance with its fundamental proposition, and treating each man, ISortnerner or Southerner, Easterner or West erner, whatever his . birthplace. whatever his creed, his occupation, his means, as a man, and as noth ing else.
