One gets just about what one gives, and usually the pay is quite prompt. Grumbling about short measure in these things only shortens the measure. The best thing to do is to go over the accounts and see whether enough right feeling has been paid out to warrant the feeling of being cheated over the small amount that comes in. Tl i French, who are always apt in putting these worldlinesses into words, say: 'If, to console yourself for being born, you must meet with men whose secret mo tives are always actuated by fine and elevated feelings, you need not wait; you may go drown yourself immediately." There is no use in languishing when one finds the world so imperfect. Vanity, wounded vanity, trivial ambitions, self consciousness, a thousand small impulses are in the average human heart, and one pays a lot of human debts of friendship and love with small coin and is paid back in kind. The world's a good place and the punishments and rewards of life are quite fair though they often seem not- As Thomas Huxley used to say, we are quite promptly and adequately punished right here and now for the wrongs we do, and quite beautifully rewarded for any good we do, and life is worth while if one does not expect to get more than one gives. It is unphilosophical to be chagrined at the possible littleness and meanness of another, as if one were never himself impelled by little motives. Humans are humans the world over, and made up of great and small, the good in us often un distinguished from the bad, the soul stuff from the clay stuff. o The playgrounds out at Washington park are substantial and useful and crowds of well behaved children are to be seen using them. The city owes its youth more such opportunity. o Concrete For Roads and Streets MICHIGAN is experimenting with concrete country roads. Ohio has had them for 18 years, and the roads are said to be as cheap in construction as macadam, and to cost from $5 to $25 a year to keep up, while macadam costs many hundreds a year for upkeep. In Wayne county, Mich., the formula is" a simple unpatented one. Over a shaped and rolled roadbed a mass of cement, sand, and stone is poured which hardens into an enduring stone. Just before it sets it is broomed to roughen it so horses and automobiles do not skid. These roads are. never dusty or muddy and improve with age. This treatment is being recommended also for residence streets as being less expensive in construction and maintenance and more durable than many more costly surfaces. , It is a part of the peculiar enlightenment of these days that everybody is realizing that good roads and good streets make a prosperous, alive community, and bad roads and streets a slack one; but the cost of road making and street making is so high that often there is no way to follow the will to make secure the benefit of good roads to a community. This plan of Michigan's, which that state got from Ohio, promises a great cut in the cost. o One's heart must bleed for Mexico, that with all the wealth and tradition, with all the wonderful characteristics of the people, she must come to this sad plight when she can trust no one, Mexican hearts and hands are turned against each other, and no honest, strong, inspired leader arises. Other Worlds M ' EN ARE continually inquiring about their measurements of the stars, and adding up evidence for or against the theory that there are people on the far off planets. The most recent astronomical theory is that Mars is too cold, that the air is thinner there than on top of the Himalayas, the water is generally ice, the cold more intense than in our polar regions, and the vegetation if any must be stunted; that Mars is a frozen planet and has no canals. If any planet is habitable it is Venus, they say, but the astronomers who are trying to count her rotations are not sure of it yet; if Venus's year resembles that of the earth there may be Venusians. But it still looks as if man were a peculiar incident of the surface of the earth, and that neither Venus nor Mars is inhabited, or ever will be. It seems more logical that man should not be so pecuiar that he should j have been set on other worlds or should have developed from the oyster on other stars. But in spite of the powerful searchlights of man's science and theory and imagination, the starry spaces are still secret. Germans Take To Drinking Tea A GERMAN machine-tool factory has made a successful effort at driving out beer with tea. It became necessary to reduce intemperance among the employes to run the business with any steadiness or profit, and a drink was sought that would substitute for beer. A tea kitchen was established in the works, and bottles of tea at less than one cent apiece were offered them. The sale of beer was prohibited within the works, but the men were allowed to bring in three bottles a day. However, the tea has proved more popular with the men than beer and everybody drinks it from the clerks to the day laborers. Four thousand bottles of tea are used in one day. Tea was chosen for several reasons: it is a good thirst quencher, it stimulates and quickens the brain, and, when properly made, it does no harm to the digestion. Many people have a superstition that tea is a poison, an enemy to sleep and to nerves and digestion, but it is one of the safest of drinks when it is freshly made and not strong. o Our Modern L THE SERVANT GIRL problem will always be the servant girl problem until it comes to pass that the mistress shall be trained in mercy and in fairness as to hours, wages, and tasks, and the servant shall be trained to some expertness in housework and shall hold herself to some standards of cleanliness and faithfulness to contracts. There is as much .blame one way as the other, except that as mistresses gen erally pride themselves on superior enlightenment they should be the ones to bring about some betterment of present conditions and not leave it to the servant girl class, the drudges,, to form unions and demand higher wages and shorter hours before they give better service. It seems strange that with the general advancement of human affairs the relations between servant and mistress should remain based on the feudal system. i o- . One-Sentence QUAKER MEDITATIONS.

Author of "At Good Old Slwash." o F ALL the animals designed by nature tne cow is one oi the most successful. She is a neat, durable animal of moderate size, and fitted with a large number of very ingenious conveniences. In fact the evidences are that the cow was- constructed a long time after man ( was invented, and that she embodies the result of much more experience. The cow is toeless, and uses instead a cleverly designed cloven hoof, which is not afflicted with corns or bunions. Because of the fact that she does not need shoes the cow is able to afford four feet. With these she can travel twice as fast as an ordinary man, and can also eat at an angle of 50 degrees on a slippery ' hillside with perfect comfort. The cow has no upper teeth. Those mortals who have spent their nights carrying a double set of insurgent teeth around a bedroom and their days earning money enough to have these teeth yanked out and replaced, have cause to envy the cow with great fury. The cow also has four stomachs. This enables her to have indigestion in one stomach and yet to limp along very nicely on three cylinders through a 189 course dinner. Because of her four stomachs the cow is also able to eat all day and far into the night. "She knows that whatever the engine does to her will increase her value from 25 cents to $1.50 a pound." The cow is also able to swallow her food in bunches and to chew it after ward. It is disgusting to think that nature has wasted this magnificent ar rangement on a cow, while thousands of American 'business men. are turning yellow and -shrivelling up with dyspepsia for want of it. The cow is also able to carry her milk supply through the hottest summer with out ice. And yet in spite of all these im provements and facilities the cow is not rich. In fact she hasn't a cent to her name. Barring the fact that she is worth 23c a pound when converted into porter- house steaks, dried beef and soup bones, , she is a bankrupt, and has to depend for food all winter upon the efforts of a hired man with a pitchfork. The cow is like too many humans. She is magnificently equipped for life, but she declines to "worry. Even when a cow strays upon a railroad track and faces a tooting locomotive she maintains her placed disposition and her sweetness of temper. But perhaps this is because she knows that whatever the engine does to her will increase her value from 25 cents to $1.50 a pound. (Copyrighted by1 George Mat thew Adams.) TEXAS GROCERYMEN WANT "PEDDLER" CARS PUT ON Austin, Tex, Oct. 13. Notice of hearing has been issued by the rail road commission that it will take up and consider on Tuesday, Nov. 11, an application filed with it praying for the adoption of regulations, for ob servance by the railroads of the state, providing for the transportation in "peddler" cars between points in Texas of all articles listed "groceries" In current freight classification.

New Psalm of Life By Walt Mason Tell me not in mournful numbers life is but an empty dream, for that man the earth encumbers who can't see that life's a scream. I am tired of folks nminkm. mg of the life we're living here, beefing sourly when it's raining, beefing when the skies are clear. I am tired of human relics holding up this world to scorn; I am tired of hearing alecks wishing they were never born. For this world that we're infesting is entitled to the bun; through the skies you might go questing and not find a better one. Certain rules hold out forever in this world we're liv ing in; there's reward for wise endeavor, there is punishment lor sin. Life has few and feeble terrors if yon only mind the rules; there's the crown for right eous farers, there's the dump for knaves and fools. If you hear a fellow kick ing, saying life is drear and sad, you may bet he's had a licking that he needed pretty bad. Life is bully, life is joyous, life is smooth and recherche, and there's nothing to annoy us if the rules we will obey. Copyright, 1913, by George Mat thew Adams.

Married Life's Troubles Helen Spends a Fruitless and Dis couraging Day In Her Search For a Maid. Oy Mabel Herbert Drner H ER shabby, black bonnet sat askew on her straggling, gray hair, her hands trembled in the frayed gloves as she fumbled In her handbag for her "references." Helen took the envelope and drew out a worn sheet of paper, written In faded ink. It was dated 1903 eight years ago. "Anna Flannigan has been In my employ as cook for the past four months. She is a good cook, honest, willing and sober. "Mrs. W. G. Roberts." "But -this is some time ago," ven tured Helen. "Where have you been working since? Haven't you any later references?" Her answers to this were somewhat vague, but she assured Helen that she could do any kind of work or cooking. "I'm sure I can suit you, miss. If you'll just try me for a month." Helen wanted to dismiss this poor old woman without telling her that she was too old and that her breath was strong of whiskey. "Well, I have your address and I can let you know. But don't wait for this," hastily, "If you can get any other place." "You looks real kind, miss. I'd like to work for a nice young lady like you." The Money Refuted. "I have several others to see be fore I can engage any one." Helen's tone was more decided. "Now here's your carfare." But old, shabby, destitute as she was. she hesitated to take it. "Oh, no ma'am you needn't give me carfare. I'm staying only 'bout 12 blocks from here I -walked down." Helen insisted on her taking the dime and with a "Thank you, ma'am." she put it carefully in a little worn purse. As she went out Helen looked after her pityingly. How could she ever hope to get a position as general houseworker? She was too old and too shabby. Yet her advertisement had read, "Competent miadle-aged woman wants place as cook or gen era' houseworker." No doubt she had been competent eight years ago, but her breath and her shaking hands cried alond of her incompetency now. Those eight years, as she grew older and her chances of work grew less, had driven her to the solace of drink. The door bell rang again, and Helen felt relieved when she saw that her sympathies would not be har rowed by the woman who now en tered. She was about 30. a foreigner, fairly well dressed and most assertive. Her keen glance quickly took in Helen and the apartment. Not waiting to be questioned, she promptly began to do the questioning herself. How many rooms have you? What time do you have dinner? What days do you give off? And what do you pay? "Now that I've answered all your questions, suppose you answer some of mine," said Helen quietly. ' I know how to do, my work" with a superior-.smlle and foreign ac cent. "Here's my references." The references spoke of her as an educated capable woman, but Helen noticed that she had remained !n none of the places longer than three months. However capable, evidently three months of "this young woman's assertiveness had been all that any one could stand. Helen Amazed. But I could not come for $25." she announced, as though the decision rested wholly with her. "They give me $30 where I am now." "Then possibly you had better re mal? there." suggested Helen. To; I do not like the people. I am used to working only in the very best families. So you do not think you could give me $30 V With difficulty Helen refrained fron saying what she did think. Well. I will consider it." con- ,c,1ndlnsly- "Since the fanHy is so small and no washing I might try ..t1 IT, i you know next week."

But .i.sne hastened for her purse. Thank you. Good morning." When the door closed Helen gave way to her suppressed laughter, for her sense of humor was stronger than her Indignation. But If this woman should condescend to come? riTen ,"" would have to handle the situation for Helen felt she would not be equal to It.

Helen rang the bell marked "Kraus " and entered the dark, narrow hall. i.TJ"? om the sun-lit street, she could hardly see the stairs. 'Come right up, please," came a woman s voice from above. Then the patter of small feet, and a child peered down at her. , "ls your mamma up there?" asked Helen, almost afraid to go up. The child, without removing its fin ger from its mouth, nodded en couragingly, and trudged ahead of Helen up the two steep flights. "Did you come 'bout the advertise f"?"1', mlss?" the woman asked. Wont you come in? That was my sister and she's just got a place."

Marriage As A Profession Clubman Who Is Afraid to Marry Is Given a Few Pointers on Old fashioned vs. Modem ' Married Life. By Winifred Black A MAN writing in a woman's mag azine tells us that he's never going to marry. He's afraid to. he says. "Marriage !s a profession," says the man, "and so few women seem to think it worth while to practise It as they should. The old-fashioned wom an looked upon matrimony as a glor ious and sacred state of life and she gave her whole time and strength and train to making a home for the man who gave her his name. "Nowadays, it Is a sort of hit or miss affair. Your wife may look after your home, and she may not; it de pends on the way she happens to feel about it. "I'll stay single, thank you. I don't dare take any chances." How enlightening, and,. In a way, how true! Wifehood a profession, good sir? Well, then, how about husbandhood, may I ask? The old-fashioned woman did de vote most of her time to home, hus band and bab:es. that's true, but she did rit knowing that husband devoted all of his time outside of business to wife, home and babies, too. Old Fashioned Father. You're so worried about the modern woman and the way she's changed. My good young man, tell nle this: Your father pushed the baby carriage all the way to church every Sunday, sang in the choir and taught the young men's Bible class in Sunday school. 1 . Then he and his wife went home to- getner. and he helped her get tht children ready for dinner. In the aft ernoon If any one was going to take the family walking it was father, and father didn't think it a crime to be asked to tie on sister's hat and see that brother's shoes were really but toned. Would you do these things, think you? Or, would you run out for a game of golf early Sunday morning and forget to get home till nightfall, and then wonder why your Wife looke'd tired and bored after her Sunday managing a houseful of restless children alone. Tour father never dreamed of fishing trips away from home without your mother. How about your little excur sions? What do you want your wife to be doing while you are gone? Clubs your father thought that any one who belonged to a club was either crazy or a wastrel. He couldn't af ford clubs not and take what he thought was the right sort of care ot mother and the children. Nobody expected mother to do all the marrying and father to be per fectly free. When the new ways came In the men's clubs, the men's vacations with other men. the golf and the polo, and the tennis, and the hunting camps and all that sort of thing mother didn t say a word she just went on and imitated father, that's all. She just stopped looking at mar riage as a profession and looked upon It as an Incident more or less deeply engrossing, according to her disposi tion. And now father has suddenly waked up to find that he doesn't quite like the new idea In all ways as it works TtTO tn 11 PnrfnMMIn -cti lfehod p- Profession, young man?

Best to BnryJ the Sorrow When love Comes After Six Years of Mourning For a Dead Hns band It Is Best to Wel come It. By Beatrice Fairfax o NE who has loved and lost who has tasted the joy of married life and known the -desolation of bereavement writes me: "Do you think It wrong for a wom an to wish to marr7 again? I loved mf husband dearly and mourned his death, but now, after nearly seven years, I feel the need of a man's pres ence. But, unfortunately, I see few men, and' cannot make advances. "I do not long for wealth only enough to get along comfortably. I am not unattractive, and I love home life, but the loneliness of trying to make a home for only one is appalling. Would it be wrong to my husband to raarry again?" One cannot live with the dead, ana the greatest of all authority says, "Let the dead bury their dead." One turns from a grave inconsolable, sure that the sting of bereavement will always remain that the sun will nev er shine again that one has known laughter and joy for the last time. But the days come and go, and each one brings its little quota of forgetful ness. New interests arise, hope spring3 up again, tomorrow begins to look less dreary, and very, very soon those who had wished they could stay in the cemetery with the one who went be fore are realizing that life is dear and sweet, and there Is much left to live for. , Men Get Away. Men are more philosophical, saner and healthier minded. They want to get away from a grief. A woman loves to linger. Before men expend any emotion they want to be sure that K?e expenditure will bring results; that it will change things. Resignation is nothing more than tha discovery that the wall against which one is beating one's head is harder than the head. A man makes this dis covery sooner than a woman, and soon desists. A woman will go on beating ner head with a dull, monotonous torn-tom-tom of protest, to the end of her days. The futility of mourning is not tha only argument against its encourage ment.
