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.

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. The Bout Liniment Tor Bprams. Mr. F. H. Wells, the merchant at Deer Park, Long Island, N. \\, says: “l always recomend Chamberlin,s Pain Balm as the best liniment for strains. 1 used it last winter for a severe lame ness in the side, resulting from a strain and was greatly pleased with the quick relief und cure it effected.” For sale by J xo. H. Hi. wkhvrn. 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!” THE BARNESVILLE NEWS-GAZETTE THURSDAY, JULY 3, 1902. 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. Jno. H. Blackburn, L. Holmes, Barnesville, Ga. 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 [generally. Marietta Journal.
