J. J. DONEGAN. SELECTIVE ATTENTION. The essen.ee of the action of the will is In what Is known as "selective attention" the power of the mind to fasten upon whatsoever It chooses. If man had no such power he would be obliged to give his attention to whatever was closest, or largest, or noisiest, or felt or smelt the worst or best, according to which was more immediate or stronger. Outside considerations would bind his brain constantly; and it is a mark of the weak-willed that this is true of them. Hence, where the knowing and the feeling powers are limited, we have weak-minded or weak-willed people. A man is a Democrat, or a Republican, or a Baptist, or an unbeliever, because his father was or his neighbors are; and stubbornness in adhering to such inherited or ready-made belief, is a mark of weak ness of the will rather than strength; for a strong will would lead to a study of, and reliance upon, the facts in the case. The "selective" quality of atten tion is what enables a person to cast aside strong influences that are near at hand, and exercise the will upon whatever he chooses ;and yet, the fact remains that the greater Intensity or Immediate attractiveness of an obejet gives It a stronger claim upon the attention than it would otherwise have. Hence, we have this formula: Use your will In selecting the im portant and right thing to do; and remove from your life everything that interferes with it. NOTHING TO BRAG OF. Whether It Is a thins; to boast of or not we won't pretend to sy, but we believe It to be a fact that Bolivar has fewer red headed girls than any town on the face of the globe. Bollver (Mo.) Free Fresa. That's a thing to keep still about instead of boasting of. The redheaded individual is the salt of the earth and keeps the old terrestrial ball from the growing insipid, old and lackadaisical. A GOOD appropriation; Not long ago the Gary common council appropriated S 1,200 for a series of summer band concerts. To the average Indiana municipality this may seem extravagant. But it Isn' There have been two weekly concerts and there'll be eight more. Every one of them is attended by at least three thousand people. This indicates that the concerts are ap predated. Some of the other cities around here that pretend to be alive and still on earth might do something of the kind to give the taxpayers a little pleasure for their money. It is now considered that the new housing law, while containing many admirable features, is too drastic for the needs of this state. It represents an effort to apply New York city rules to small Indiana towns. They" won't work. , ' Apart from its worthy 4ctions that provide for light and ventilation the new law presents aspects that almost confiscate a builder's property. The law does not Intend that this should be. In this region it is significant that the building commissioners are applying a liberal interpretation to the law. Were it not so interpreted building would be almost at a standstill, rents would advance because of the growing population, and many men would be out of work. The law la being interpreted as public senti ment wants it. A KICK COMING. A number of the tall men in and about Danville are vociferously kicking about the doctors, lawyers and others hanging their shingles too close to the ground. They claim that the signs strike and batter their heads as they pass along the avenue. Danville (Ky.) Advocate. Believe us, tall men are not the only ones threatened with things hanging over their heads. - Those who axe

ehort suffer worse as the evidence;

of a number of sawed-off Individuals hitherabouts will testify to. THE "WOBLD" IS CURIOUS. The New York World, being keen to know. Area the following query at old "Constant Reader" and "Vox Pop": "Is Dr. Rosalie M. Ladova, of Chicago, to be a martyr to the cause of a rational bathing costume for women? Are- bloomers, worn without a skirt .criminal," and is the woman who appears in them at the beach to be liable to reprimand, fine, 30 days In Jail or imprisonment for life? Where i3 the line to be drawn, and by whom? Will the police de cide it, or the women? "There are stern and rock-bound Puritans who shy at the divided skirt for women on horseback, disregarding the reasons that prompt its adoption. There are perfectly modest men and women who watch the female tight-rope walker In spangled tights at the circus and forget to shudder with shame for her sex. s In scores of public and private schools in New York, girls and young women wear bloomers In their physical culture classes, and no one is particularly horrified if fthey give public exhibitions. Why should sklrtless bloomers be a criminal offense at Coney Island and not in Central park?" A CHOPS-LICKING DEMOCRAT. That the work of "turning the rascals out" is proceeding at a merry clip and that patronage is being rapidly distributed among the faithful by the present administration is shown by the nominations which have been Bent to the senate and which number about 3,000, about 2.000 being postmasters. And this in face of the fact that the president has been much engaged with tariff and currency legislation and foreign affairs and the further fact that the politicians have . complained about the slowness of . rewarding demoCounty cratlc workers. Jasper Democrat. SIMON-PURE PRUDERY. Three powerful, sincere and splen didly written articles on the sex problem have recently appeared in three different magazines, ""The Tiger," in the Forum; "The Woman Who Tried to bejGood." in the Sat urday Evening post, and "In the House of the Living Death," in Collier's Weeklyr"" These stories deal with, in a clean, effective and straightforward manner, the greatest of moral questions and no one who read any one of them could have helped being impressed by the lesson they taught the shame and degradation of our social system and . the need of effective reforms. These stories are to be classed as beneficial literature, for they aim powerful blows at the public conscience, sadly in need of an awakening, and they probably had a greater Influence on the thousands of people who read them than the preachings from thousands of pulpits. Notwithstanding all this a very prudish organization called the Natonal Christian League for the Promotion of Purity has seen fit to work against the very principles it advocates by sending in a complaint to the postmaster general, urging him to establish a censorship over magazines to prevent too free discussion of the sex problem. This complaint was inspired by the three stories referred to. , If such excellent and beneficial literature ia to be suppressed is it not time to censor the publication of evidence presented to committees all over the land engaged in investigating social conditions ;to bar from the mails copies of the report of the so-called Rockefeller grand Jury which inquired into the white slave traffic in New York? The light of publicity has unfortunately been kept off mis great question for many ages, but in this country, at least, an honest effort Is now being made to stiHly it and prescribe the necessary remedies. This great reform movement, however, is doomed to failure if it is denied the searchlight of publicity to expose the hideous specacle and arouse the public to the need of prompt action. If Postmaster General Burleson acts favorably on the petition of the Purity league he will have taken a backward step and have delivered a crippling blow to the splendid men and women who are , leading the great fight against one of humanity'3 greatest evils. Richmond, Ind., Palladium. THE DANCING MANIA. The dancing epidemic which the country is witnessing recalls in some respects the dancing mania of the middle ages, which has been frequently discussed in the literature of neurological medieine. The rag-

time and turkey trot manias appear J to be contagious in much the same1 way that' the medieval manias were. They are alBo alike in respect to wide-spread prevalence, the populations of whole continents being; affected. These neurotic phenomena have been ascribed to widespread

neurasthenia, due to unrest and: other pathological social conditions says the Medical Times. These and! the naive determination to ,be -amused' that characterised the masses, together with the peculiar influence of a type of "music" which seems to set up characteristic motor reactions, account for the specially sensitized class which may be observed In action day and night almost anywhere In the country. This class illustrates well tbe principles laid down by M. Le Bon. that authority on the psychology of the 'crowd. Then it has been pointed out that many ragtime tunes are versions of negro revival hymns, which perhaps Introduces an element of quasi-religious emotionalism and also recalls the Interesting fact that dancing has always been connected with religion, especially pagan religion. The Instinct to dance is a very primitive one, and through the dance certain emotions find outlet and expression. There is a normal and an abnormal phase to the subject, however, and we are inclined to think that it is the latter that finds exemplification in ragtime trotting. MOTOR CAR SPEEDS ABROAD. Forty miles an hour is a speed which is very seldom exceeded in Engalnd on the road, despite the fact that many motorists talk glibly of fifty miles an hour and sixty miles an hour as easy everyday achieve ments. As a matter of fact really large and powerful cars, which are easily capaDie or nrty miles an nour or more, very rarely indeed go at more than a mile or two above forty, be cause most of the roads do not per mit of it. Not only so, a car which will at tain ana maintain rorty miles an hour with ease will rarely, if ever, bore Its occupants, because it is fast enough quickly to put behind it any uninteresting piece of straight open road. It is really only one on- the Con tlnent that the big cars are often driven at higher speeds, as, of course, there are many parts of France over which fifty to sixty miles ana hour is just as safe as forty miles an hour in Engltnd. Randorn THINGS AND FLINGS. KLLA WHEELER WILCOX says that this is a better world than 25 years ago. This may be true but notice that the fashions of 1888 are the correct thing for the man of today. IF you hear any loud noises to the pouth you can make up your mind that President Huerta is heaving a lot of hrifkbats at Mr. Llnd and that he la tearing through space making his getaway. LOOKS THAT WAY. Note that the V. S. Steel corporation, seeing that the people of Gary would n't patronise its 65,000 baseball park, has turned it Into a running track. Probably got the Idea that the Garyites like to run because of the great number of them that pursue public office. SOME of these fellows who have been praising the beauties of summer time, will be learning for lovely autumn and Us frosts just as soon as tbe festive hay fever germ gets busy. . GOING vo have a Chautauqua down at Lowcli next month. What becomes cf all the lost pen knives? MARIOX Chronicle ayw that the Sprinkle family in about to bold a re-anioo In tbot town.

TIMES BUBEAU AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 8. It begins to look like the Incident of Lieutenant Governor O'Neill and his office rooms at the state house wUl become an Im portant issue among- the Democrats in the next state campaign for nominations. Mr. O'Neill is a candidate tor the nomination of Governor to succeed Governor Ralston, and he has been making quiet but effective campaign for the place. It was thought for a time that he had he backing of the Democratic state organisation and that he would he the organization candidate. But the incident ef the two rooms has made a change in the line-up, and It now looks like the machine will go after his scalp instead of helping to boost him into the gubernatorial chulr. Little else Is talked about at the state house these days. Everybody In the state house has taken aides one way or the other in the matter. But most o, the crowd, ia ripping Mr, O'Neill up the back and denouncing his retention of the two office rooms as outrageous and a shimt Chairman Duncan of the publle service commission, which wants the rooms set apart by the legislature last winter as office rooms for the lieutenant governor, is still sore and does not lose an opportunity to ex press his opinion of Mr. O'Neill in flashy language. Phil Zoercher, reporter of the supreme court, has come out with a newspaper interview in which he lifts the hide of the Lieutenant Governor, and denounces his action in regard to the rooms as an outrage. It is understood that others at the state house will follow with similar statements and Interviews, the purpose being to drive Mr. O'Neill Into giving up the two rooms which now belong to him. The state house is filled with organization Democrats and the fact that so many of them have taken the trail against Mr. O'Neill on tbe flimsy excuse that he has an offtce in the stale house is taken to mean that they will keep after him, even to seeking to defeat him for the nomination for Governor. But It looks now like Mr. O'Neill does siot propose to permit the organization er any body else wheedle him out of his rooms. He is a fighter, and once this crowd gets his Irish fighting blood

to going right they are likely to find that they have stirred up a hornet's nest. He showed how he could fight when, last year, he won the nomination for lieutenant governor over a large field of candidates one of whom was Dr. T. D Scales, of Boon v tile, one of the main cogs in the state organization. O'Neill won hands down. The organisation was not opposed to O'Neill's, nomination, last year. It simply preferred Scales, but O'Neill put his name across and the organization was about as well pleased as if it had nominated Scales. And in the legislature last winter O'Neill stuck very close to the organization for what he bad done, i This caused most people to think that' when he came out as a candidate ter Governor he would have the solid suppost Of the organization. Another thing that looked good for O'Neill in this connection was that when the floods cajne on last Spring and Goveror Ralston needed a man to send to the flood stricken cities of the state to ivestlgate true conditions and make a truthful and trustworthy report to hint he called Mr. O'Neill and sent him. Mr. O'Neill spent many days in this work of mercy and help. The fact that Gov. Ralston is one of the big springs in the organization machine, coupled with the fact that he gave the lieutenant governor this high recognition still further went to prove that Mr. O'Neill waa the organization's man. But things are changing. Just whom the organization wants for Governor, if it has decided to throw O'Neill. Is net yet known, but it is pointed out here that with the high standing of the Lieutenant Governor especially in the north part of the state, and hia ability aa a campaigner, whoever the organization selects to run against him will have a horse race on his hands. It Is understood that Mr. O'NeiU has been quietly building his fences during all of these months and that he has made considerable progress. It Is the belief of some persons here that the Incident of the Lieutenant Governor's two rooms ati the state house has been slezed only as an excuse fer staring the fight off O'Neill. This belief is based on the fact that the rooms were given him in a special bill passed by the legislature, which was under the complete control of the state Democratic organization. No complaint wm made then. -- - . .u ... j , TV ' ::iaiss - ' ' lAtuae reatv August Stanislaus Sulkowskl, lieutenant of the second dragoons of the army of the empire.
