What Will Ila* Plotters Accomplish.
If we were tp examina the lint,
of i lit* men who have left t heir
mark on the world, we should
find that, as a rule, it. is not com
posed of those who were brilliant
in youth or who pm' great
promise at the outset of their ca
reers, but rather of the plodding
youi|g men who, if theyhave not
dazzling by their brilliancy, have
had the power of a days work in
them, who could stay by u task
until it is done, and well done,
who have had grit, persistency,
common sense, and honesty.
It. is tln> steady exersise of these
ordinary, homely virtues, united
with average ability, rather than
a deceptive display of more showy
qualities in youth, that enables a
man to achieve great ly and honor
ably. So, if we were to attempt
to make a forecast of the success
ful men of the future, we should
not look for them among the ranks
of the “smart” hoys, those who
think they “know it all” and are
anxious to win by a short route.
—Success.

The Tactful Woman.
Some women have the happy
faculty of knowing precisely what
to do in every emergency to add
to the happiness of those around
them. They are not as rare as
some may imagine; they are to he
found in every walk of life. The
fact that they are so little known
and so seldom appreciated is due
to the fact that as a rule they are
not conscious of doing anything
more than their duty, dictated by
the promptings of a heart full of
milk of human kindness. The
woman of this position makes no
effort to watch out for the happi
ness of others, hut it is just as
natural for her to do these things
which make life pleasant as it jk
for the ordinary woman to sit and
wait for others to do things for
her.
The secret of this woman’s suc
cess in being such a comfort is
that she is thoroughly unselfish.
Self always comes last with her.
She never thinks of the personal
elfort she must make to achieve
some things should he done for
another’s comfort. She never
thinks that she receives no reward
for her acts, but keeps on steadily
doing for others. She is content
to stay behind the scene when
some social affair is going on in
order to see that nothing happens
to mar the good time. She works
diligently to prepare someone else
for a vacation trip and does not
sigh that she is not to be a par
ticipant in the pleasure. -t
Sin* is the woman who at a pic
nic secs that everyone else is sup
plied with lunch and is content
with a bite or two for herself. She
is the woman who knows how to
put up just such lunches as the
picnickers are sun* to like, and she
does all this as if there were no
question of anyone doing it. She
is the only too willing to supply
the table with all the dainties
which individual members of the
family desire, counting not the
effort it, must cost her to bring
this about.
In fact, she is the woman who
does whatever is to be done, and
the beauty of it all is her supreme
unconsciousness that she is doing!
anything. She iaj not very.often J
to be found among the'{young
women, and almost’Jnever among
women who are longing'for a
career, for the latter have time to
think only of their own self-ad
vancement and the former find
themselves too interesting to pay
very much attention to others,
hut she is found among the mid
dle-aged women who have a family
whose want’s are always very much
in evidence, and she is the bless
ing of the household. —Ex.

Otvtne Assistance Not Needed.
Father O’Keefe, the Catholic
chaplain at West Point, was lis
tening to some raillery one even
ing concerning the efficacy of
prayer. It was all good humored
enough; for his companions at
the time were men who held him
in deep respect and regard. His
argument, was that very, very few
ot us who are helped by prayer
are inclined to give credit for the
assistance to the proper source,
and often fondly believe that our
own devising. To point this
argument, he told the tale of a
Celt who was engaged as all-round
man in one of the big office-build
ings. Cleaning w indows one day
on the eighteenth floor, he lost his
balance and fell, exclaiming as lie
realized his great peril:
“O! Lor-rd, help me, a sinner—
help mel”
The words had hardly been ut
tured when he was caught on a
jprojection from a window on the
! fifteenth floor, when, assured of
his safety as he swung free, lie
added:
; ”0! well, yez needn't moind!”

CONDENSED STORIES.
Von Moltke’s Orders, With the Em
peror Behind Them.
General Schofield, speaking in fa
vor of the new army bill before a
committee in Washington, gave the
following illustration: “Von Moltke
is probably the best illustration in
modern times of what the military
chief of staff may be and should be.
He was the chief of staff of the Ger
man emperor. A report woulc
come in, for example, from the
crown prince. He had had a ter
rific tight, and he would say: ‘Such
and such is the military situation.
What are the orders?’ Then Yon
Moltke would read that dispatch to
the emperor, and after reflecting
for a few moments, or, rather, giv
ing the emperor a few moments in
which he might seem to reflect, he
would turn to him and say, ‘ln view
of what the crown prince reports,
your majesty will doubtless order
so and so.’ The emperor would say,
‘Ja, ja,’ and Von Moltke’s order
went out at once and was delivered
and executed as the order of the em
peror, the commander in chief of
the German army. Everybody knew
that it was Von Moltke. Otherwise
they would have been very anxious.
But he had all that power of the
German emperor behind the order,
and it was Von Moltke’s order, and
he was the best soldier in the
world.”
An Old Story Newly Told.
Representative Curtis of Kansas
tells this story:
“What did Samson slay his ene
mies with?” asked a schoolteacher
of his class.
No one could answer.
“WHAT IS THIS?"
“What is this?” inquired the
teacher, touching the side of his
cheek.
“The jawbone of an ass,” was the
prompt reply.
Agents Ruined Them Both.
At the Whitefriars’ club in Lon
don recently the members met to
greet John Murray, the veteran
publisher, as their guest and to dis
cuss the complicated subject of the
relations of “Author, Agent and
Publisher.” There was a good deai
of chaff during the discussion, and
G. 11. Burgiu, the writer, told a sto
rv which turned out differently from
what his audienco expected. Two
shivering, hungry, wretched out
casts met one cold winter’s night
outside the residence of a wealthy
literary agent. There was a strip
of crimson carpet on the pavement,
and carriages thundered up to the
curb in “profligate profusion.” Then
royalty descended and went in to
dine with the literary agent. “Who
are you?” asked the first outcast of
the other. “I seem to know your
face.” “I was an author —once,”
bitterly replied the other. “Who
are you? I’ve seen you before.” “1
was a publisher—once,” said the
first outcast. Then they recognized
one another and. moved bv the com
mon impulse of brotherhood, turned
round and shook their lists at the
house of the agent. “There,” they
declared in unison, “there is the
man who helped us to ruin each oth
er.” Then, linking arms, they sor
rowfully went away to the nearest
dosshouse.
Art Will Lift Him Up.
Thomas Mast, the artist, has been
appointed by President Roosevelt
as consul to Guayaquil, Ecuador, a
city which is located far up the sides
of the Andes.
“.Vast,” said Colonel Blythe as
the nomination was posted in the
senate press gallery, “will have to
ride a mule up to his new position.”
“Oh, no,” responded Colonel Jack
Messenger, with ready repartee; “he
will simply have to draw the mule
after him.”
He Mowed for a Wife.
Farmer James Woolsey has suc
ceeded in having his 500 acre
wheat-field cut before the yellow
grains grew musty, hut it cost him
his daughter. He gave her as a
prize to the young harvester doing
the greatest amount of work in a
specified time. Willis Rodway,
a young mechanic from Illinois,
won, and he and Anna woolsey
were married at Pratt to-day.
The Woolsey farm is one of the
largest in Pratt county, and the
scarcity of harvest workers in that
section weighed heavily upon the
farmer’s mind His wheat grew
dead ripe and there was no one to
help him cut it. Then he devised
upon offering as a bride to the har
vest workers his 19-year old daugh
ter. She dutiful as good looking.
The men came by the score. She
was given the privilege of reject
ing any of the contestants she per
sonally disliked, and many were
thus ruled out. The contest was
spirited. It lasted three days,
during which time Rodway,work
ing 10 hours a day, cut 100 acres
and wore out three good teams.
ALL MOTHERS KEEP IT HANDY.
“My mother suffered a long time from
distressing pains and general ill health
due primarily to indegestion,” says L.
W. Spalding, Varona, Mo. “Twoyears
ago I got her to try Kodol. She grew
better at once and now at the age of
seventy-six, eats anything she wants,
remarking that she fears no bad effects
as she has her bottle of Kodol handy.”
Don’t waste time docortoring symptons
go after the case. If your stomach is
soundyour health will be good. Kodol
rests the stomach and strengthens the
body by digesting your food. It is
nature’s own tonic.

Milner, Ga.
In his sermon to the graduating
class President Taylor of Yassar
college, talked very frankly. He
told the girls that society was
doing an indefinite amount of
harm by its tendency to pleasure
and its extravagance. It puts
ideas into the minds of young
people that turn them away from
matrimony. The young men hes
itate to marry because they are
afraid they couldn’t earn enough
to satisfy the wants of themselves
and their wives. They feel they
must do as the social circle in
which they move does, and there
has been such prospecting times
for a number of years, and there
is so much wealth, that there is
great recklessness in the spending
of money. Of course the majority
are not wealthy, but the percent
age that is, is so large as to have
a decided influence on society
