The Association of (Now York City) as etrtllieatoUMelremlatSea MtttolrtMwttM. Ooiy the Uwwrm el i wlaini la Its Tkjtae Items Gathered in From Far and Near 8tates Should Buy Reservations. From the San Francisco Chronicle. The western forest reserves are with' in the "boundaries of the several states which are morally entitled to whatever benefit the forested areas confer. That the legal title is in the getferal .government is true, but all the equities are in the respective states, and the claim of some eastern men that western re sources are being developed at the expense of the whole country is absurd, The resources of each state are being developed at the cost of the state. As to the proposed "Appalachian forest" the .areas Involved were never the property of the federal government, nor did their sale ever bring one dollar Into the general treasury. The money, which they brought went into the state treasuries. The states have had the use of the money for a century, more or less, and If now there is a desire to repurchase them for the benefit of those states the states should pay for them, just as the western states are paying for their own development. Some of the eastern states notably Pennsylvania are acting on that principle and buying their own Btate forests. Let all the rest do the same. Naval Public Works. Prom the New York Herald. Sea power is composed of various elements, some of which make a direct appeal to the public mind, such, for example, 'as the number and strength of capital shops and the capacity and ability of the officers and men. Other elements of high importancethe supply of munitions and the ownership of public works are less fortunate In their claims because they fail to touch with equal force the popular Imagination. Under the logical system of department and navy yard organization lately established by Secretary Meyer, assured supply, economic accounting and the application of business methods to government work are so fruitful in promise that the senate and house will undoubtedly give them an open-minded support and a fair trial. But congress has another duty in the creation of adequate public works, and for these liberal appropriation should be made. Dry docks, for example, may be classed as one ot the primary necessities of sea power. The Red Cross Stamp. From the Philadelphia Ledger. There appears to be universal agreement that whatever the drawbacks to tho use of the Christmas Red Cross stamp, in adding to the work of the postal officials and creating possible delay and confusion in the mails, the object they are designed to serve Is so Important that the stamps shall be given right of way. It has been proved that they are exercising a potent influence in spreading the knowledge of the world's war against tuberculosis, and the proceeds from their sale have added not a little to the war chest But the suggestion that this method of propaganda be used to further other causes should receive an instant and emphatic negative. c , The Family Deserter. From the Great Falls (Mont) Tribune. The second meanest brute that walks on two legs is the apology for a man v. ho deserts his family and leaves them to get aloog as best they can while he spends the money he earns on himself. ; The brute that is still meaner than this is the on: who not only refuses to contribute anythlr.t to the support of his wife and chuiio. but who constitutes himself an addition! burden on them, often robbing them of what money they earn to gratify his own beastly appetites. Mossbacka, From the Portland (Ore.) Journal. Large quantities of Oregon moss are being shipped to California at? profitable prices to the moss gatherers, thus establishing ' a new industry for this state. . ' Oregon has an unlimited amount ot moss to spare, and if along with portions of it some of its remaining moss backs could be shipped out of the state it would make a double : gain. : It could even afford to offer a bounty to any other commonwealth that would receive them.

GOODRICH RETIRES Senator Beveridge voiced the sincere sentiments of Indiana Republicans in bis letter to the Republicans who were assembled at the dinner in honor of State Chairman, James P. Goodrich. Those who served under him in the ten years of his chairmanship are men who know his services to the Republican party in this state. They knew that he, as Senator Beveridge said, was one of those who, "has been giving the past efforts of their lives almost since they were boys, to the welfare of tho Republican party." They knew, none better, that the work of the party had been successful because of Mr. Goodrich's qualification and efforts. "As State Chairman he has been untiring in his efforts, fertile in his resources, and has concentrated his unusual abilities to make the party victorious." The abilities of a man who holds this office must be of the highest; his tact, his sincerity, his honor and integrity must be of unquestioned. And the proof, were any needed, of Mr. Goodrich's posession of all these is in his splendid record. The Republican party sustains a loss in his retirement. Senator Beveridge well sums it up: "It will not be easy to find a man to take his place who will give so willingly his time and energy and measure up to the stature of his peculiar talents for organization and direction."

MORALLY DEAD A local minister and educator is quoted as having asserted last Sunday that Richmond is "morally dead." That this distressing condition be proved true, he is further quoted as saying that no revivals are possible here, and again, that he does not know of a place in which there are no saloons in which conditions are so bad as they are here in Richmond, and he is said to have cited police records and divorce statistics to prove his point. The number of arrests, in addition to proving that so many people needed to be arrested, proves that the police department is efficient. Richmond would have been worse if the men had run loose. We would then have had a denunciation of a town in which the police officers refused to act or were asleep on their beats. The number of divorces granted proves also an attitude of the court. It might be suggested that a successful revival might be a proof of emotional tendencies. Such a pessimistic view of things we do not share. There undoubtedly are persons who are immoral among the thousands in Richmond. But we firmly believe that morally dead, sunken in sin, reeking in selfrighteousness as Richmond is (according to quotations which have lately appeared) that conditions are actually improving. Mr. Herbert Spencer remarked, that after a great uplift in the English people, which turned the situation from one in which sobriety was the exception, into one in which it was the average .those who fought the eyll asserted that the-vice was fast growing. This may be found on pages '77 and 78 of his Study in' Sociology. Cheer up.

TWINKLES (By Philander Johnson) Distant Relations. "Bliggins was referring to distant relations in a rather disapproving tone. I wonder whom he meant." "I don't know," answered Miss Cayenne. "Judging from their manners, I should say that the most distant re lations he knows anything about are his wife and her family." Presumption Resented. "I see they have decided what whis key is," said Meandering Mike. "Yes," answered Plodding Pete; and it is another of the cases where theoretical knowledge sets itself up as superior to our practical experience." Determination. Beneath the mistletoe stood she, A sturdy suffragette, they say Resolved that she would never be By any mere man bluffed away. A Mechanical Christening. "Why do you call your engine Central American Republic?" "Because," answered the inventor, "it yields a maximum number of revolutions with a minimum application of initial force." The Thirst for Knowledge. "I'm afraid," said the worried looking woman, "that may husband is hopelessly impractical." "He seems to take a great interest in his home." "Yes. But he Insists on buying thermometers to see how cold each room is instead of spending the money for coal." A New Year Suggestion New Year's com in' Got to resolute; De bells will staht a-ringin' An' de horns is gwlneter toot, Dar's jes' one difficulty When I celebrates de day; It's de 1st of January When you's got dem bills to pay! I's ready foh de music, Cause I likes to celebrate But dar's certain little matters Dat I sho'ly wish could wait; Dat New Year day seems cheerful But jes 'tween me an' you I'd like it better if it was Put off a week or two. Stories About People Other Liars Walked Away. In a small town over in Jersey there is a cigar store, according to ex-Sheriff Charles R. Fenton of Mount Holly, where half the male population gathers every evening to recount the events of the day. Some of the natives being polished liars, many pretty big fish stories are told; also rabbit and snake stories, but whenever any genial citizen exceeds the speed limit the rest of the crowd walk out of the store and go home or in some other way show that they are in a doaMful mood. The sheriff was familiar with this practice and consequently when he l:r opened in the aforesaid burg the other; night and saw the crowd file out of tfee smokeshep one by one and start up the jroad he' vis not surprised. He merely wondered at the size of the snake or r&bt. "I see that the crow J couldn't stand it remarked Charley to one of those who were walking away. "Who Is the offender this time?" "Josh Smith. answered the native. "How big was the snake that he killed? smilingly queried Charley. "It wasn't a snake,' returned the na-

tlve, as he continued on his way. "He told us that his mother-in-law had given him a quart of whiskey for a Christmas present" Philadelphia Telegraph.

How Prince Ito Solved a Promblem. When Mme Sada Macco, the famous Japanese actress, received the news of the assination of Prince Ito at Mito, where she was playing with her troupe, she burst into tears. "In my frequent quarrels with my husband," said the actress, "we sometimes asked Prince Ito to judge between us. One day when we had a more than usually violent dispute at Chigaski, the Prince came in unexpeqtedly, and I asked him to decide on the question. "He declined, while proposing the following resolution: "Go down into the garden, both of you, and fight it out like wrestlers. The one that wins will naturally be the one who is in the right." "No sootier said than done! In a trice Kawakani and I were in wrestling trim. My husband was just recovering from a serious illness, and, being weak, I soon threw him to the ground. This amused the Prince enormously." Paris Figaro. No Time for Vanity. Mrs. Phelps Stokes, in one of her college settlement addresses in New York, said of snobbishness: "I hate the snob so bitterly that I can almost sympathize with the thief in the tumbril. "During the French revolution, you know, a thief and a marquis jolted in a tumbril side by side through the wild streets of Paris, on the way to the guillotine, while a venerable priest tried to console their terrible last ride with moral reflections. "A has la noblesse! Down with the aristocrats!' shouted the red-capped mob. "Thereupon the thief rose in the cart and cried: " 'My friends you deceive yourself. I am not an aristocrat. I am a thief.' "The priest plucked him by the sleeve, saying reproachfully: "' Sit down. This is no time for vanity.' " Washington Star. A Wife's Resolutions (Chicago News.) "For the new year," writes "Anxious Wife," what would be a good set of resolutions?" We have been waiting a long time, as a married man, for just this sort of query, and now we roll up our sleeves and proceed to demonstrate our feelings in this matter. Here are the resolutions we would suggest for the average good wife of the average blundering man: "Throughout this year I shall not find fault with him for anything. If he makes any social breaks I am going to let him find it out from some body else, if not through his own observations or feelings. I am going to let him be his own monitor except when he asks my advice; then I am going to find out, if possible, what he thinks he should do and advise him to do that very thing. And it he fails through following his own bent which he thinks is my advice, I'll stand by him till but Tm a lady and can't use the comparison I thought of. I shall show him always that I believe in him. "I shall let him do all the fool things for me he wants to, whether they ex actly conform to my notions or not I shall never resent anything intended for a kindness, and 1 shall never tell him after thanking him for something that I'd rather have had something else. "I shall never even hint that I'd rather add somebody else to the party than go just with him to the the thea

Opened yJ2 are ter or other place of amusement or entertainment or instruction. If I want others along I'll see if I can't manage to make it appear as if he or they had brought the thing about. I shall humor every attempt he makes to be 'just with me,' and with no one else. "If ever he should be away a long time and should be hurrying home glady and full of homesickness, I should warn him by wire if something were wrong, and not throw ice water in his face when he lands by showing him that his home, so far as my happiness is concerned (and that is all the real home a real man has his wife's happiness), is a temporary wreck. I shall not give him a glad smile of greeting and then let the smile die out in a look of pain and disgust as I relax to my normal self. If I can't hold the cheerful bluff I won't make it. A bandaged head is. a better greeting than a temporary smile. It breaks a man up worse to be lifted to the summit of a glad smile and then hurried to the depths of a groan of pain than to leap from his ordinary level to those same depths. "I am going to see if I can't treat my husband as well as I do the casual guest in the home. I am not going to sit around with a vinaigrette to my nose, a dismal look in my eyes, for his entertainment or delectation, and then, when the doorbell rings, cheer up and put on a June-like smile and be chipper as a lark till the company's gone; then relapse to the dismals again. If I can't make the bluff for him I can't make it for somebody I care less for. "I am going to make my husband understand all this year that I have found him almost as good a fellow as he made me think he was before I married him. I am going to let him know not just expect him to take it for granted that I still really think more of him and have a higher opinion of him than of other men of our acquaintance. I am going to show a preference for him. "But most of all, I am going to take an interest in what he does. I am going to ask him about his work, let him talk about it to me without interruption, and approve of the good things he does. I am going to applaud all his improvemetns and keep still about the things I think are not improvements. I am going to make him know that I care, entirely aside from the financial end of the game, whether or not he succeeds, but never give him to understand that my affection and loyalty are in any kind or degree at stake in the matter or dependent upon his success or failure. "And I shall pray, all the time, within my heart of hearts, that he may practice the golden rule in all these same regards, so far as our varying relationships will permit" ALONE IN SAW MILL AT MIDNIGHT unmindful of dampness, drafts, storms or cold, W. J. Atkins worked as Night Watchman, at Banner Springs. Tenn. Such exposure gave him a severe cold that settled on his lungs. At last he had to give up work. He tried many remedies but all failed till he used Dr. King's New Discovery.- "After using one bottle he writes. I went back to work as well as ever." Severe Colds, stubborn Coughs, inflamed throats and sore lungs. Hemorrhages, Croup and Whooping Cough get quick relief and prompt cure from this glorious medicine. 50c and $1-00.

To laundry fine white and colored dresses use two level tablespoonfuls of gelatine to one quart of water. So stiffened the garments or curtains will look equal to new.
