THE YEARS.
Sunrftt. and noon, and unset,
And day slips Into dsyi
Twilight and dark, and daylight—
A ysar has rollsd away. ,
Budding, and bloom, and fading.
Qrscn tree and leafless bough;
Seeding, and growth, and harvsst—
So dlas an old yosr now.
Singing, and sight, and allonca,
Ths frownlngs and tha amllts,
Tolling, and atrass, and resting,
And grevs or gayer whiles;
Days that have brought tholr honors,
And days that laft thslr Mere-
Over it all ths marvsl
Of sach night with Its stars.
Dreamlngs, and hopes, and plannings,
Tasks that begin and end;
Hours that have brought ths silence
Alike to foo and frland.
Words that ware sad or marry, .
Draughts that wars bittsr.swsot;
Qresting, and hall, and parting—
The old and tha new yaar mast.
Sunrise, and noon, and sunset*
Day will slip Into day;
Twilight* and dark, and daylight.
The ysar will roll away;
Sunshine, and song, and gladness*
Fair dreams that corns In slssp.
Birdsong, and nodding blossoms—
These are we feln to keep.
Darkness, and light, and shadows,
Sorrow and golden cheer,
Blend Into Qod’e completeness,
Into ths finished ysar,
nto a memory fabric
Woven of shade and thine—
These era tha years unfolding
lives like yours and mine.
D. Naablt, In Chicago Evening Poet
Justice Harlan.
The death of John Marshall
Harlan, associate justice of the
supremo court of tho United
States, which occurred at Wash-
ngton Saturday moaning, is
truly a national loss.
One of the oldest of the jus
tices, both in years and length
f service, he was also one of tho
ablest.
The eyes of the entire nation
were directed to him recently
because of his stand in the his
tory-making decisions that were
ndered af the last term of the
ourt in the Standard Oil and
Tobacco trust cases.
lie acquired the title of tho
Great Dissenter. The rest of the
court read into the Sherman anti
trust law the famous rule of
reason. Justice Harlan said that
congress had put no such rule in
the statute—in fact, had purpose
ly refrained from doing so—and
that it was judicial usurpation
for the supreme court to put it
there.
These decisions constituted
celebrated cases, hut the dissent
ing opinion attracted more at
tention than the majority ruling,
The popular verdict was with
Justice Harlan.
The -insurgent is valuable
everywhere, and nowhere more
than on the bench.
Justice Harlan will be mourned
throughout the country for the
able lawyer and fearless judge
that he was. and also out of re
spect for him as a man and
appreciation for the services he
rendered the nation daring a long
and distinguished career.
The Health of the Cor.vlois.
The wisdom of taking the con
victs from private lessees and
putting them to work improving
the public highways has been
confirmed bo often in Georgia
that not a doubt of it now re
mains.
Every state and connty report
i the condition of convicts
gives it new justification.
A recent inspection of Fnlton
county's camps by the state
prison comminion reveals the
fact that, out of 600 prisoners,
only one is ilL A remarkable
record is this for any group of
600 persona, but when it is re
membered that the prison roll is
made up of individuals drawn
from classes and conditions of
living that do not make for
health and vigor, the record be
comes truly wonderful.
When The Georgian waged its
memorable fight for the abolition
of the convict lease, dire predic
tions of all kinds were made as
to what would happen, both to
the state and the convicts them
selves, if they were put on the
roads.
Not one of these predictions
has materialized. Actual test is
disproving them every day.
The Georgian encountered the
same calamitous cries when it
went to aid the people of Flor
ida to put an end to their con
vict lease.
“Keeping the convicts in open
camps and hauling them from
place to place will kill them out.
The short-time men may be able
to survive, but the long-termers
will surely perish.” Such were
tha wails raised last spring at
Tallahassee.
How utteHy silly they seem,
in view of the report on the
health of Fulton’s prisoners,
which is herewith commended to
the people of Florida for thought
ful consideration.
The general health of the con
victs throughout the state is in
splendid .condition, and will un
doubtedly be kept so.
The state, however, should do
more in this 'respect as from
time to time it finds itself able.
Medical inspection in the schools
has. done wonders by way of
remedying minor physical de
fects such as are found in the
eyes and teeth and are sure
sources of graver maladies if not
cured.
The Federal prisoners are
treated for such infirmities, even
to the supplying of them with
proper eyeglasses and dental
work, when necessary. The state
convicts should in time have the
same attention—measures dic
tated both by enlightened medi
cal science and common hu
manity.
The Wickedness of
Taxation by Tariff.
John Arbucklc, the millionaire
sugar refiner and coffee packer,
left the other day for a vacation
in Europe, where he expects to
recuperate his strength and pow
cm to carry on his fight to have
the tariff removed from raw
sugar.
He doesn’t term this tariff tax
a mere economic error, but de
nounces it as a positive wicked-
ifess. His observations are indeed
interesting.
“The tariff on sugar,” he said,
“taxes the man who works for a
wage of a dollar a day as much
as it taxes an Astor, or Mr. Mor
gan, or Mr. Rockefeller. Each
eats, or at least needs, the same
amount of sugar, and they pay,
not according to their ability, but
according to their needs, rovers
ing an elemental .rule of taxa
tion.”
A specific instance of great
emphasis and undoubted point,
but it can be applied with equal
force to the whole high tariff
system, which is an injustice
throughout.
Even-body would revolt at the
idea or taxing n man’s lack of
property instead of putting the
tax on the amonnt of property
which he possesses or on the in
come which he makes. Yet that,
in a sense, is just what the tariff
does.
It is done, however, in an in
direct way, and to the ordinary
man is seemingly not done at all
—a sort of political legerdemain
That ia why the average voter
has not heretofore risen up with
something of the spirit that ani
mated the Boston tea party and
made an end of the system.
We find no fault with Mr. Ar-
buckle’a declaration, except that
it should be made general. What
ever tariff exists, above enough
to raise sufficient revenue to car
ry on the government, is a wick
edness pure and simple.

THE BUSINESS DOCTOR
tBy ROE FULKERSON
"You are a client of mine, and I want to caution you about something,"
said the Business Doctor to the young man In tha club smoking room.
"You are new to buslneas, heaven be praised; you have all the enthu
siasm In your business that any man
should hsve. You are wrapped up In
It, and everything which eoncettu- It.
and as a result you are a victim of one
of America's worst habits—you talk
shop.
-It has been said that a boro' Is a man
who insists on talking about himself
when you want to talk about yourself.
This applies to talking shop—If you
want to make a good Impression on
people, don't talk about your, shop
when they want to talk about theirs.
"Advertising Is second nature to
every American business man, but there
Is much advei Using which Is btd taste
and retroactive, and of this sort tharo
Is nothing which makes a worse Im
pression - than talking shop outside of
business hours. It's too bald a bid for
business. ,
"Of course, I do not Intend to say
that you are always soliciting business
when you talk shop, for a large portion
of tho time It la as unintentional as the
remark of the automobile salesman who was Invited to go shooting at tho
country place of a man to whom ho wanted to soil a machine. In the field
the prospective customer shot a bird, only winging It, whereupon he ex
claimed:
"'Watch that bird. He’s hard hit.'
" 'Yes,' exclaimed the salesman. ‘He’s steering wild, dot 4 In his dif
ferential gear, sure as you're born.'
"Thors Is only ons case where talking shop Is excusable, and that
Is Where the other fellow brings up your business. You may then talk
to him with Impunity. A man’s friends are a part of his assets. Every
new friend Is a possible customer, and that possibility Is radically Increased
by not talking shop to htlti. There la no man who does not resent the Idea
that you are working his friendship for business, and at the same Ume
there Is no man who has not the Inclination to do business with hts
friends. The resultant proposition Is that to get bnslneaa out of your
friends you must never talk business to them.
"That Is the dollars-and-cents end of It When It comes to a question
of good breeding, good taste and personal popularity, there Is little ques
tion that the man who Insists on talking shop outside of business hours
violates every principle of good taste, good breeding and. In fact, good
sense.
"Think shop all you please, but cut It out of your conversation."
Reports at a recent meeting of the directors of Sear*. Roebuck * Co..
Chicago's big mail-order house, show.that the sals* of the first six months
of 1(10 wtro t30.000.000, against 151.000,000 for the entire year of 1100. The
directors estimate from this first six months' showing that the year's
business will ba 105,000,000.
In ths face of these astonishing figures, newspapers must send out
men to try to persuade merchants to advertise. This house has never seen
one of all these customers. It does it entirely on Its advertising. Every
dollar of that 106,000,000 came directly from properly distributed printer's
ink. . .,

gloomy, there have always been a few friends to speak a good word for the
staple. Bo far this season these "few friends" have been silent. Their

fled with nlne-cent cotton. It la the freedom with which the farmer mar.
kete his cotton at the nlne-cent level that makes the bears more bearlih
and eliminates the possibility of bullish operations. As a consequence, the
whole world Is bearish. Predictions are being made that cotton will H |i

“In future buslneas there Is nothing doing In the yam market. The be-

dealer reports having a-letter from a Southern spinner. In which he expressed
the belief that cotton might sell for eight cents. ' The majority of spinners
have been bearish on the cotton situation for some months, and during the
past week more than one has sold he would not be surprised to see cotton

By THOMAS TAPPER.
In th* course of this article there Is
something about a potato down cellar.
Let us assume that you are a great
detective. You are called upon to solve
a mysterious ease. What would you
do first?
Get all the facts In the case.
And then?
Determine from these fact* the con
ditions and circumstance* they point
to or suggest.
Stated In other words, you have be
fore you:
1. The mystery.
2. The facts In the ease, as they
appear at th* present moment.
You must discover what led up to
these facts. They are of the past.
Now, a boy born to cttlsenshtp in
the United States (or anywhere else)
must be Just this kind of detective.
He haa a great mystery case on His
hands And be must solve It.
Being an American Boy, you want
to know what the mystery case Is that,
as a great detective, you must work on.
It la ealled Tho Meaning of the
Present or How to Make Good In the
World.
This la really a great case.
If you are the great detectlva you
ought to be; to spire It, your Sherlock
Holmes method will be something like
this;
During the early years of Ilf* you
will be getting acquainted with the
C :e of th* mystery, getting your
rings—so to speak. Having become
old enough to think for yourself, you
will begin to examine your surround
ings carefully.
You wilt say to yourself; "I must find
out what the world about me Is doing.
In order that 1 can begin to work on the
great mystery case of Making Good.
This la making a study of the Pres
ent
You will bcfcln to notice that people
talk and write about things that are
not happening now. They constantly
rafer to - times, people and condttlbaa
that no longer exist When you begin
to Investigate what they are saying,
you will find that tha people of the
world today are thinking their thoughts
and governing their conduct very large
ly from the experience of other men
who, like you. American Boy, were born
Into this world and studied It.
Then you will see the necessity for
making a study of the Past.
A day will never come In your at
tempts to solve this mystery case when
you can say, as an ordinary detective
often can; "Now I have all the facts,
present and past, and the problem I*
solved."
You will have to put In every day of
your life on your ease, constantly
studying the Present to know what
the world’s work Is, and. also, con
stantly studying the Past to know how
we came by th* thoughts we think
thoughts which ws have received and
which we apply to th* Present, and
from them govern ourselvea about the
Future.
Bo It Is a great case.
Now, this group of facts which lead
up to the Present, and which also make
the Present, are recorded In books
As you become educated you may form
the habit of reading books. If you
do, you may be thankful, for you will
posses* a habit that can be made valu
able.
Thla habit becomes valuable when
you use It as one of the aid* In your
business of solving tha Meaning of the
Present. Used otherwise. It may ba a
pleasant habit but not a thoroughly
useful one.
Therefor*, do not underestimate your
power to read. It la the key that will
unlock th* Past for you, and It la the
Past alone that unlocks the Present
and lets you In, as the expression says,
"on the ground floor."
Hooka that do thla for you are many
In number, but they are grouped under
few heads, Ilk* history, biography, ed
ucation, science, and the like. It Is
never necessary to read them all—and,
besides, It la Impossible. A few books,
wisely selected, will 1st you In to tbe
Meaning of th* Past In one of ths**
articles we will present such a Hat as
a suggestion for thoaa who are deter
mined to solve this mvatery east.
But before the American Boy touches
a single book. It should be clear to him
that th* act of Making Good In the
case Is worth his highest effort.
It should also be clear to hlin that:
1. The world about him la a great
world and It demands his study.
2. The world of Today la the daugh
ter of Yesterday, and he must study
both with great vara.
If you do not car* to taka thla point
of view or this trouble (nod there Is a
lot of It), you can go down cellar and
shut out the light, and tell tha Past
and the Present that you do not car* to
bother with them.
Jn your study of the world of today,
you will be surprised to find how many
people do live down cellar, where. Ilka
a potato In tha spring, they throw out
a sickly sprout or two, and then are
carried out and buried.
If you tre going Into this mystery
rase do not live down cellar; b* a great
detective.
UNCLE WALT * PHILOSOPHER
Another hope is gone to pieces, another “lion” was a
sheep, and where he stood a spot of grease is—well may the
sports wring hands and weep! The white man’s feet are grow-
ing colder, he can not find a “champ” that
CARL MORRIS wins; and o’er the sea the swarthy holder of
Jeffries’ laurels widely grins. This thing is
true—and all men know it—the fake “phenoms” are things to
scorn; you can not make a pug or poet—such birds as these
are simply born. When Morris heard Of how the dinge in, a
few short rounds brought Jeffries grief, he quit his work upon
an engine, and thought because he had some beef that he conld
bring us back the bacon and make oar hearts' with gladness
jump, but now his heart and eyes are achin’, as he sits brood
ing on the dump. And here there are some fruitful morals, if
any wise man for them digs; so many men go after laurels who
should be busy feeding pigs. WALT MASON.

FOOD AND FLESH REDUCTION
There ar* current no less than a
dosen diet schedule! designed by emi
nent physicians for the reduction of
fat. For example, there la the Bou
chard diet, which consist* entirely of
eggs and milk. Approximately three
S int* of milk and five eggs, divided Into
ve portions, are taken at equal Inter
vals during th* day.
Another diet Is as follows: “Meat, $0
grammes dally; fats, 75 grammes;
green vegetables, plentifully; starches,
sparingly; abundant hot drinks (tea
and coffee); no alcoholics or beer.”
The celebrated Ebstein diet embraces
for braakfoat half pint of black tea,
no milk or sugar, 50 grammsk of white
bread toaat with butter. For dinner;
Soup, 120 grammes of beef, a few fresh
vegetables no starches or sugar; dur
ing dinner two glasses of white wine
and afterward a cup of tea. For sup
per; A cup of tea, an egg or 100
grammes of roast meat or ham and $0
gramme* of bread and butter.
Concerning the wine’ laid down by
Ebstein, we may say that It had best
be left nut. It finds Its place In the
dietary list merely because wine Is so
universally taken with mania on the
continent.
An authority on the treatment or
obesity sums up th* question of diet
as follows:
First. Drink as little as possible, ei
pectally of fermented beverages such
as beer.
Second—Eat no fat-making food
fats, sugar, starches.
Third. Other foods may be partaken
of In moderation.
A fundamental principle Is that the
mors one exercises and the less one —‘
ths quicker will flesh be lost.
Drug treatment for obesity In a dan
gerous thing and should never be un
dertaken, except upon the advice or t
physician. Extract of the thyroid
g land Is the most reliable drug tbu
ir found.
Fast Horses.
Horses!" said tha Yankee, "<
you can't talk to me about hort- n. I
had an old mars Malsypop. who one,
licked our best express by a couple of
mile* on a 20-mlIe run to Chicago."
“That's nothing," said the Canadian.
I was out on the farm one day. about
50 miles from the house, when a fright
ful storm cam* up. I turned the pony i
head for home, and, do you know. h«
raced the storm so close for the last
ten miles that 1 didn’t feel a drop, whllt
my dog. only ten yards behind, had to
swim th* whole distance.''
