If you have six cents more now

The treasury department’s figures
show that the per capita circula­

of six cents over last year.
Take it for what it is worth. We

Discussion ceased as there was
no question of the honesty ot the
judge who was being discussed. It
required no further argument to
convince the little gathering that
it had made a mistake in entering
upon the considering of an honest
ir.an; that where honesty is ability
abounds; that where an honest
man tits upon the bench, the law
books may be closed and no one
suffer; that honesty is the supreme
t*at of a man’s fitness to pass open
the contentions of his fellows. For
he who hesitates a moment must
know that the law is founded upon
honesty and that only an honest
man cun therefore be trusted to
interpret the law.
A GOOD CHEER SOCIETY
The daughter of a certain lum­
berman has founded a new society
which she is pleased to call the
Good Cheer society. She is de­
voting her time and money to pro­
moting the organization and has
traveled to many places, establish­
ing branches of the society.
The requirements of the mem­
bers are simple. All one has to
do to join the organization is to
sign a pledge to be of good cheer,
and to promote cheerfulness— as
simple a proposition as was ever
put up to mortal man.
Now, the organisation of the so­
ciety may be a fad with the young
woman. It may be that she is
spending her father’s money travel­
ing around talking about good
cheer only because she wants the
notoriety. It makes no difference
about that. The point is that
this young woman is doing a world
of good, regardless of why she is
doing it, and despite the fact the
society may perish from the earth
at an early date.
.
Cheerfulness is a mental pro­
cess. Ail that is necessary to pro­
mote it is to mention it. The most
crabbed
individual
on
earth
straightens up and becomes cheer­
ful if any one mentions it to him;
be is ashamed to admit that he is
not always cheerful. So the fact
that the young woman goes into
lumber camps and the mines and
m«ntion| cheerfulness is worth a
whole lot to the world.
Then, the newspapers cannot
mention the society without re­
minding everyone who reads the
item of the value of being cheerful,
without spreading a contagion, in
fact that runa on to the end of
time. Have not you who have
read this prosy comment already
resolved in your mind that you
will be more cheerful in the future?
That is the way the contagion
works.
The gentleman under discussion
was a judgt* npon the bench. One
thought «bat he was not at all well
read in law— learned in the law as
the attorneys say— as some other
judge. Another of
tne
party
thought he was not as industrious
as a judge might be and still not
suffer from paresis. Still another
believed that his education was not
as classic as it could have been,
had the gentleman under discus­
sion taken advantage of all of his
opportunities.
Then spake a member of the bar,
a man df long practice before the
courts, thoroughly learned in the
law himself and a successful prac­
titioner from every standpoint.
“ Gentlemen,” he began, “ I have
listened patiently to whst vou
have said of the judge.
