T That Is not true alms which the hand can hold; he gives nothing but worthless gold f Who gives from a sense of duty; But he who gives a slender mite, and gives to that which Is out of sight, That thread of the all-sustaining beauty Which runs through all and doth all unite, The heart outstretches its eager palms, 4 For a god goes with it and makes it store to the soul that was starving in darkness before. Lowell. 4,-H.t " HONEST MEN IN DEMAND The search for honest men is more assiduous than it was in the life of Diogenes, and one of the things that young men should keep in mind is that old men who have accumulated money and have it to invest are scrutinizing them, watching them all the time and toping to discover those that can be trusted. The foregoing is the assertion of one of our Oalifornia exchanges, and every word of it is true. This is not saying that honest men. are rare, but they are at least not so common that sagacious men will trust solely to appearances, Many a young fellow clearly evades paying his railroad or street car fare, thinking it proper and commendable to get the better of a corporation, to lose an opportunity that would mean promotion and success. Even the rich man who is none too scrupulous himself with other people's money, will not knowingly have a man in his employ whose notions about property seem in the least bit loose. To in spire confidence men must have ability and judgment as well as !honesty, but honesty is the first requirement. Honest men may ibe numerous, but the supply of them is never so large as the de .mand. The example given of the young man trying to cheat a rail way out of a fare is but a sample of many petty thieveries that are condoned because customary. We expect when we buy to ihave short weights if it is possible for the seller to use them; to find the smallest apples at the bottom of the barrel; rocks in a 'bale of "hay; sand in. sugar; chickory in coffee, and a little ot ev ery kind of poison in a cocktail. Not one out of ten thinks it any thievery to take pens, pen fells, inkatands, blotting pads and general stationary from the vounters of public offices. The fine lady on her bridal tour steals a'spoon, napkin or towel belonging to the fashionable hotel where she stops for a souvenir. . .. '. , ,' It is thought no harm to take a peanut from the street ven dor's stand, or a fig or an orange from the? grocer's street dis play. ' , So in a hundred petty ways it can be shown that strict hon resty is not so common as we think. It requires a few homely re flections, such as we have quoted, to remind us of this fact less we forget. get a little bruise on his face without its being telegraphed to the newspapers, for of such htfhe kingdom of snobbery., This S?. Louis minister who is defending patronage of the beauty specialists and divorce probably finds his encouragement in the increased attendance and collections. : There's a lot of sitting up and taking notice among the heav weights since' che rumor became current that Taft, like the great Caesar, prefers fat men for his advisers. Mr. Taft's acts are daily increasing the number of those who believe he will be his own boss when he assumes the duties of president. Castro seems to have known just when it was up to him to jump the Venezuelan game, and report says he took the "kitty" with him. "Tins DATE IN HISTORY."

At Roseburg he went from house to house and knock ed at the door. If anyone answered he asked if a civil engineer by the name ot Speech lived there or in the vicinity. When he received the nega tive answer he would leave. Two houses were robbed in the same neighborhood about the same time that the man made his calls. He got money and valuables wlrth about twenty dollars. The police of that city think that he came north. In appearance the man is of slight build with a peculiar dwarfish aspect. His face is smooth with a sandy complex ion. COMMERCIAL CLUB WILL CELEBRATE NEW YEARS The Ladles' Auxiliary of the Com mercial club h'have decided to keep open house at the club on New Tears day.

Chung Yu Wang, A. M., in his book on the "Origin and Nature) of Love," says: "Love is a state of feeling, manifesting itself invariably under the guise of the higher and lower emotions, But due to an innate impulse, either primary or secondary, through instinct, association, or accommodation, of expression by the act of ejecting one's ideal self or ego for its fulfillment and satisfac tion in a sentiment or imaginary being having elements that are 'capable of arousing that impulse through qualities absent in the one in whom such feeling is' generated and in whom the power of imagination is capable of approaching to emotional hyper bole." Well, we are glad to know that, though if the matter was put in language somewhat plainer we are free to confess that we might be able to understand what the gentleman means by that long sentence. 1 ' In announcing his candidacy for the senate-,, "as a supporter of the administration of William Howard Taft," former Senator Call, of Florida, may have only been getting in an advance bid for ''something equally as good." We may be in error, but we are not looking for a Taft senator from Florida just yet. America, instead of Sicily, now dominates the sulphur trade of the world. Wonder if that has any conneetion with the atpar ent increase of happenings in which his saatnic majesty ap pears to be deeply interested? Some men don't know when they are dead. Poultney Bige low roused up long enough to say that so far as he could see the Panama canal would never be completed. Even when Poultney vfas alive he was near-sighted. (Special Correspondence.)
