OH, NEVER MIND TRIVIAL THINGS . By George Matthew Adams
Life should be lived as a book is read by carrying every useful and happy recollection to the unread page, but counting the pages read as finished.' . . : One of the reasons why so many people appear commonplace is that they . never - drop their yesterdays they are always worrying and fuming about what Is already a thing of the past The interesting person is the one who accumulates as he lives only that which is able to serve him for fetter equipment as he strives and grows. , Lord Beaeonsfield was once asked what he considered the most remarkable the most, self-sustained and powerful sentence which he knew! His reply was "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof! . God wouldn't appear great at all if His only purpose In placing us here On earth was to watch us play for a little while and then lie down to mysterious sleep. In thp study of great men, I find an almost total absence of worry on their part They seem to be driven, or led, or sustained by a strange understanrling-perbaps a super-faith which seems to close the experiences of each day, binding them Into a sort of book, each page being a thing new and. apart. . Thus they are able to construct a character that" 'stalks and stands high, like some lofty peak, above its lower fellows. The mother wipes the tears away from the eyes of the child, kisses its tinted cheeks, and says to it- "Never mind!" And immediately the smiles appear,' a new day is born, and play is resumed. There is no error of human kind too great to leave behind. Never mind, my friend. Time and love are able to coat over the deepest disappointments and to part the densest clouds. You must keep going on and up! If you live in yesterdays, you are bound to be buried within them and lost to the great things of life that may be born with the coming of each and every, new day. Never mind the things that can't "be helped that are already done or gone. Mind the things that are yet to come and to be.

We have a hopeless lot of scribes who toil and toil away, to show all people and all tribes are sunk in low decay. We have no true respect for Art, our view's a sordid thing: we'd rather drive a spangled crt than hear a tenor sing. Our souls are sunk in real estate, in fox and other trots: instead of striving to be great, we deal in vacant lots. Our homes all lack artistic charm, and one is like tho rest; we all have clocks that ring alarm, and bottles in a chest; we all have hatracks in the hall, our doorbell whirs and clangs, and on the eastern parlor wall. "A Yard of Roses" hangs. And thus we lead our sordid lives in our atrocious homes, and go to lectures with our wives, or read cheap lowbrow poems. I scarcely know why this is wrong, or why we are to blame, but highbrow authors, going strong, insist that its- a shame. We're reeking of the commonplace, we're gross as we can be; and yet the bum old humaj race is good enough for me.

That afternoon the woman's hus band met- old Caesar downtown. "Why, Caesar," he said, "I thought you had to go to see your sister, Ju the country."

New Tariff Begets Reprisals Great Britain Retaliates by Making United States Pay a Vastly Increased Price for Crude Rubber. ,
By FREDERICK J. HASKIX WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 10. The reprisals against the United States because of the protective tariff act recently' passed by congress, which were predicted during its pendency, have begun. Great Britain has struck the first blow and aimed it at the American rubber industry. It will be recalled that during the months when the tariff act was pend ing, British interests protested against the high rates which would keep Brit lsh products out of the American mar ket. Delegations of business men from England appeared before ths ways and means and the finance committees asking lower rates. Their ap peals fell on deaf ears. This amount ed to a declaration of economic war. The United States erected a tariff wall to keep British goods out. " Now Great Britain, in retaliation, is striking back at a very tender spot in the American industry. , The British have well advanced a plan to make the United States pay a vastly increased price for crud-3 rubber. Not a pdund of rubber grows j on American soil. ' We must import all the rubber we need for the hun dreds of thousands of automobile tires, for electrical apparatus and for the hundred and one other uses to which this product Is put. The method being employed by Great Britain is to lay an export tax on the export of rubber from her possessions which produce this valuable commodity. Such possessions include the land of Ceylontv the Straits Settlements and the " Federated Malay States. These are the principal rubber producing areas of the world. Brazil produces rubber but because of a difference in quality and especially because of the manner of conditioning for export, the American rubbeindustry uses chiefly the product from the British rubber producing regions. The United states consumes as much crude rubber as all the rest ol the world put togther, so any govern mental action by Great. Britain tenc1 ing to increase its price is a direct blow at the United States. ' The tax must be paid to the government before the crude rubber can be exported, so the price of rubber laid down in the United States will be substantially higher. It is too, early to 'to make any definite estimates, but the rubber industry admits that the action of Great Britain will add millions of dollars to the American public's bill for tires as well as for the numerous other rubber articles of every day consumption. The American rubber industry Is protesting vigorously against the act Lessons in Correct English DONT SAY: ' v He BATTLED at Gettysburgh. He APOLOGIZED his crime to the judge.

England protested against an American impon tax; now the United States protests against a British export tax. Both protests are doomed to the same reception. We Must Pay The Price. The economic result is that England will sell less goods in our market and that if we want British rubber we pav the price whatever it is. The proverb ial American spirit of fair play must say: "that'e fair enough," but it is hard to smile when the flivver needs new tires all around and when the blowouts come. In such a situatioi a puncture teaches more about practi cal pontics tnan a textnooK. Great Britain feels reasonably sure that the United States must have Yuhber no matter what it costs and she is well justified in such an assump tion. Rubber is essential in so mauy manufactures and is so common an ar ticle of daily use that the people can not get along without it. Therefore the price must be paid and England will collect. - , England feels particualrly comfort able about the rubber export tax be cause of the debt situation. It is an economic axiom that foreign ballances can be paid only in three ways: in gold, in goods and in services. Eng land la willing to pay us all the goM she can spare and recently sent ovev $50,000,000 of the yellow metal. Mor is coming. But she has not enough to meet her indebtedness. The next form is the goods. She would be very glad to ship great quantities of goods to the American market and was pre pared to do so when the congress pu up the tariff barrier and declared that we would not accept goods. Payment in services is going on constantly: that is, British ships are carrying American goods, British hotels are en tertaining American tourists, and American ships are obtaining British insurance. This is a tedious process. Now while this situation obtains the American people at the same tim: are pressing for payment of the debt which Great Britain owes. She hasn't the gold; we won't take her good?; payment in services are slow; therefore, some other plan must be found. There are commodities which the United States does not produce but which the British Empire does. Ac cordingly the obvious thing to do ia BE PRETTY! TURN GRAY HAIR DARK Try Grandmother's Old Favorite Receipe of Sage Tea arrd Sulphur.

PEOPLE RtSAOi OF HORRIBLE Turkish atrocities to raise the prices of such commodities. The United States must buy from Great Britain and pay handsomely. This is a way of meeting the debt. This is precisely what is happening in the case of the rubber tax. We must have rubber. That is something the tariff does not keep ouL Therefore Great Britain will pay us in rubber. She will not pay us a great deal of rubber for a given sum but a little rubber for a given Bum. In this way the debt will be cut down. , Similar Reprisals Are Expected. The officials at Washington expect the plan to be extended. There are other commodities which Great Bri tain produces but of which we pro duce very little or none at all. Tin is , one of these. It would not surprise of ficial Washington to see Great Britain raise the price of her tin. To some ex tent, the price of tea could be raised although there the production of Japan and China would cut down the British monoply. The American protective tariff is built on the theory that the United States produces practically all the raw material she needs. That was especial ly true untli rubber became so import ant an element in modern life. Rubber is the most vulnerable point of attack and that is the spot Great Bri ain picked out. There are not many others to find, but wherever there is a commodity of which Great Britain has anything like a monoply and the United States has a lack, the American people can. make up their minds to pay heavy toll. What other nations will do in the way of reprisals against the American tariff has not been divulged as yet, but there is no doubt that any weak ness in the American sources of supply will be taken full advantage of.

for this country. For instance, if Bra-! sil ad the Central American countries j did much, manufacturing and felt, themselves Injured by the American tariff on manufactured goods, they would, in all probability, lay an export tax on coffee. This would bother the United States as we raise no coffee. This, however, ia not likely to occur. It would not be- surprising if Italy and Spain should raise, by means of an export tax, the price of olive oil. Those countries practically nonopolizH that trade and the United States is a, great consumer Italy, France and Japan, should they see fit, could follow the same tactics as to silk. One element which restricts the reprisals which the other countries can afford to make is the general consumption of most of their products. Under the most favored nation treaties no country could tax exports to the United States without taxing exports to all other countries. The problem, then. Is to find something of which the United States is the principal consumer. Rubber is the most conspicuous example.
