The Cry Against Luxury By M. M. MANGASARIAN. Lecturer TIFE is a luxury, and it deserves all the luxuries which man can J conquer from nature with his toil or his thought. Tho cry JS against luxury is an evil symptom. It ia the old spirit of ASCETICISM IX A NEW GUISE. Luxury is the gratification of tho wants of the civilized man. It is not true that luxury degrades a nation. If the Greeks and the Romans perished, so did .tho barbarous Parthians and the severely simple Spartans. The modern man is stronger and capable of greater endurance, not in spite of the comforts and luxuries of civilized life, BUT BECAUSE OF THEM. When the life of society was more simple and severe men could not stand the strain to which the American or tho European is subjected today. But wealth, against which the reformers raise their voices, has made human life decent. Even liberty is born of better material conditions. Prosperity elevates the masses. It is not "blessed to bo poor." POVERTY, LIKE DISEASE, IS LIFE AT A LOW EBB. Art, science, genius, beauty, are all luxuries, and yet how unprofitable and flat life would be without them. GET ALL YOU CAN ENJOY AND ENJOY ALL YOU POSSESS. THE QUEST OF VEALTH AND THE QUEST OF KNOWLEDGE PROTECT CIVILIZATION FROM FALLING INTO THE SERE AND YELLOW LEAF. The Modern College Man By Rev. E. G. UPDIKE of Chicatfo fIIE following, in my opinion, are some of the MORE GLARIX G FAULTS of the modern university student : Selfish intellectuality. The college man has his own ideals and his own methods, and he is not' susceptible to change, lie is also cowardly about facing the MORAL PROBLEMS of tho dav.

INTELLECTUAL ARISTOCRACY; THE COLLEGE MAN LIVES BY HIMSELF AND GETS ALL OUT OF SYMPATHY WITH THE VOSLD Too much devotion to his own. pursuits; his spirit becomes deadened. Too much specialty; his character is not rounded, and thus his views of the duties of citizenship become CRAMPED. The college man tries to reach conclusions in spiritual matters by the Eaine process that he does in MATERIAL MATTERS, which is erroneous.

St. Paul, Fob. 10. James J. Hi!,', president of the Croat Northern, at the hearing before tho state house of representatives committee investigating the so-called ore i;;i)d deal', made a statement giving the purpose of the purchae of the or'j lands and the organization of the Lake Superior company, lie was generally opposed to having the road concerned with anything except transportation, and the ore lands were purchased solely for the purpose of getting the transportation of this freight for the road of which he was president. F.nt as the road did not want to have any other business than railroading the Lake Superior company, limited, was formed to take over the ore lands and hold them in trust. Hill Registers a Kick. Hiil's statement was made in response to questions by William R. Regg, general solicitor for the Great Northern, after Representative C. B. Miller, of Duluth, had closed for the day the examination of Hill. Just bofore Miller closed his examination Hill made a reference to his light with other railroad interests on the Pacific coast. lie said: "There lias been dragged into this hearing in a public Avay matters that we have excellent reasons for trying to keep as private as possible. There was that Vancouver and Yakima railway transaction. We have lawsuits and lawsuits while we are trying to build a road down the north shore of the Columbia river. The owners of the railroad on the south shore located a road along there, and in every tight place tried to get the right-of-way. Not Fair to Ifis Company. "I don't know how many lawsuits we have had growing out of our attempt to build that railroad along the north, shore, and I don't know, and yon don't know, that they won't have that information as fast as a telegram can carry it to them. That is not connected in any way with iron ore in the state of Minnesota. I feel that it is hardly right to drag out these matters that may cost us a good deal of money."

BUSINESS WELL MAINTAINED New Season to Open Under Favorable Auspices No Kvidence of Any Reaction. New York, Feb. 10. R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: Despite holiday and weather interruptions the volume of business is well maintained. In most sections of the country the movement of merchandise has resumed normal proportions, snow blockades being removed, but tardy deliveries still cause much complaint, especially in regard to grain. Retail stocks of winter goods were most satisfactorily depleted during the period of low temperature, and the new season will open under favorable auspices. Wholesale and jobbing houses report a liberal spring demand. Mills and factories have so much forward business that new contracts are not taken except at full figures.

I Wages have been advanced in several i important concerns and there are no ; serious labor controversies. Iron and I steel producers are receiving much I new business, contracts covering deliveries still further into the future, i many lines being sold up to the last

quarter of the year. It is not possible to discern any evidence of reaction in any section of the industry.

A 'Nurse's Story If you are a sufferer from headache, neuralgia, or pain from any cause vou should read the following letter from a nurse. "For sometime I have felt it my duty to write you. I was havir.aj my doctor twice every w-eek for headache. Ail he did for me was to glvo F-'imethlng' to ease the pain. Sometimes the pain was so severe that I could not speak, and members of my family s-tood over me and gave ms medicine every fifteen minutes until I was relieved. A sample of Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pill3 fell Into my hands, I read the circular very carefully, and found my case described exactly. Tha next time my head begran to ache I took the Pain Pills according to directions and I felt I was getting Letter, so I sent to the druggist for a box and took them until I was so much better that I was about house all the afternoon. I have not had a doctor for headache since. "When he met me sometime after he wanted to know how I was, and I toll him what I had done. r.d he replied; "If you have found anything that will help you, stick to it;" and so I have. Being a nurse I have recommended them to a great many grateful people. One case I will mention. I saw a doctor go to a neighbor every week for months because she had such awful headaches; but for a long time I dared not suggest anything to her. One day I met her ar.d I gave her a half a box of Anti-Pain Pir.ss and she used them and has had no doctor since. She says they are a great bl3sir.g to h r and said, "win didn't you tell me about them before." i could tell you of many similar enss." 1II83 JOSEPHINE BOTIN, 170 YT. Genesee St., Auburn, N. T.
