A man American dollars rn his belt and a head with sound American business abilay in It, landing lu Manila within tue next six months will only be able to compute his profits by its ability to count. It will not matter what business he makes up his mind to undertake, as long as he provides nr. tides of home make or their imitation. There is no doubt that there Is a-for-tune to be made by the man or womau who will start a bakery and candy store, such as are to be found in all' large towns at home.

Flour, sugar, and other necessary ingredients can all be bought in open market at very reasonable prices, and would go as rapidly as offered for sale. A newspaper agency, -where late magazines and American works could be bought, would be a profitable, enterprise. is now no way to get anything of this kind except by individual subscription. 7 The climate does not agree with many, but people of "both sexes who, while born and brought up In Europe and England, have lived here some time, say that they became acclimated in a few months.

A 50-foot store on the main street, the Escolta, rents today for Mexican, and on the side streets the rents are much lower.

The average rent for a house for six people, with a stable attached, is $70 Mexican; this is in the best neighborhood. Capt. Putnam Bradlee Strong in Leslie's Weekly. EVERYTHING IN BUILDERS' HARDWARE. IN IMPLEMENTS.

QUICK TIME. SPLENDID SERVICE. 1 1 so being In Its nature untrustworthy it has neither the power; of certalaty nor the potency of authority. "The saying of the old Grecian thinker and his present sympathizers is not to be cast aside as worthless. His work Is not wholly lost.

It does not go simply to swell the mental and moral waste heap of human history. It Is the cunning of reason, which allows selfish Interest to have Its own way and yet compels it to minister to ends of reason. "In opposition to 1he pagan and materialistic idea of the measure of all things 'In God manflnds a cosmo8t of which be elt liiwselt ft part; 7 i "For the vast p6tentlatu.es and pos-sibllities of his nature, he finds room, and to the eager questioning of his spirit there comes a ready answer. Here is a measure' which denies nothing good, which does not hide Its im-potency in mystery, nor veil its Incapacity In dogmatism. A 'measure though accurate and Impartial, is yet klnd-A'measure'-Usfactory-ln-lts results and omnlfic in its authority.

"Granting that the conception is true that 'God is the measure of all we must not lose sight of the fact that it is Impossible for man to think except in terms of his own thought, that all his beliefs and actions must bear the color of his mind, the imprint' of his character, and be found in the limits of his creaturehood. Man Is as necessa rily finite as God Is Infinite. "This world Is about us, Dresse us wiht eager questions and will either be inspired by our interpretation or made callous by our silence. No man can ignore or lightly regard tbe demands of the world who loves kind and who feels humanity stirring him, which Is greater than gain and larger than himself. Never were the opportunities for noble endeavor and splendid service in behalf of men as great as now, and they who own the wealth or possess the scholarship of this age may.

By far the larger proportion of manganese ore produced in the United States is mined In Arkansas. Tbe manganese belt is known to be very extensive, but as yet has scarcely been prospected. The Port Arthur route is the only line entering tL.

An excellent quality of slate Is known to exist in Arkansas and promises to become a great source of wealth in the, near future; considerable marl and gypsum are found, and the only real chalk deposits In the United States are at White Cliffs.
