These facta have been established, and guaranteed to advertisers. ARTHUR KOPPELL, President CHEERFULNESS. Laugh and the world laughs with you, Weep and it gives you the laugh; Grin and you'll get All the world owes you yet; i Grough and you won't get half. Don't slouch; don't go through the world stooping and fawning thus apologizing for your lack of manhood and begging pardon for having been born. Man learned to walk upright several centuries ago; get the habit Square your shoulders and look the world full In the face; aud remember the open hand wins more friends than does the closed fist Smile bless you, Bmile.

If your load is heavy, walk erect; you'll bal ance It and bear It more easily. Don't let your ego go sour in the musty refrigerator of doubt and fear and hate. Let it out into the sweet, pure air of real life; let It take to the open road of Bane outlooks and simple joys; let it romp over the fields delight and gather the flowers of friendship and love; let It grow bronzed and dusty in the sunshine of duty and service. Yes, smile not servilely and apologetically, not Inanely and vapidly; but openly, honestly, happily. This" world's the best you ever saw; it may be the best you'll, ever, Your enemies hint as much, at any rate.

this yarid'ajwi as good as we humans make it; no. better, no worse. Think of this; and make the most of your present opportunities. There's trouble In life, of course. But what of it? Does It make you happy to be miserable? Does giving a pain to every one you meet relieve the ache in your own heart? Your frowns won't away fear; your corses won't frighten away care.

Be a dynamo of human helpfulness; and radiate friendship and fellowship. Don't draw down your brows and the corners of your mouth and make a Mexican war map out of your features; rather, let your eyes be two lakes of love and laughter in a fairy landscape of hopefulness. Smile laugh; be brave and cheerful. Don't ask some brother to bear your bur 'den; and don't whine like a walloped puppy because you have to tote it yourself. Be brave; be a man.

Who wouldn't rather hear the lisping tilt of the summer breeze than the sigh and sough of the winter Wind? Who wouldn't rather listen to the robin's song at his casement, in the rosy dawn, than hark to the ghestly tap tap of a dead limb's skeleton flnjers, upon the pane, at night? Who wouldn't rather meet the fool with his grin, than the philosopher with his grouch? Wouldn't you? So owuld the other fellow. Don't lookupon the world. with the jaundiced eyes' of jealousy; or you'll think your bravest and best friend has a yellow streak up his back. Don'f hide In a coward's castle, and peek fearfully out the portholes, and shudder at what people are going to do to you. Don't get mad, see red and run amuck; this world's a flower garden not a slaughter house.

Be a friend; and you'll have friends. Don't detail your ails and ills even to yourself. Let them feel your cold neglect; maybe they'll get discouraged andleave you. Db' drone a chronic tale of hard luckTnaactofottrase and good cheer. And the mists and clouds fill disappear; and the sun shine from mori till night Smile; God bless you smile! Measure it with joys or sorrows, Sad todays or glad.

THE liUUTlNGTON HERALD. The Indian athlete Thorpe, has the sympathy of the American press. The technical violation of the American athletic rules Is such a trivial matter that it is hardly worth considering, especially when tho American Athletic association has not been over zealous in enforcing Its rulings in the past as regards other athletes who come much more within the scope of professionalism than ever did Thorpe. In some quarters there is a suspicion that the American Athletic association foundMtself sorely Jn and. seized on the poor Indian for Its purpose.

And now it develops that Tom Taggart has prom isedtQjakejthe members of Jhe Indiana legislature to the inauguration ceremonies at Washington, at his own 'expense, provided the legislature flnUhes up Its' work in time to adjourn by March 1st It la to be presumed that from this time on the legislature will do some tall hustling; but what's the idea, Tom? It is now pointed out as one of the arguments. In favor of tho abandonment of the public Inaugural that it would prove to be a rather common, affair. Probably, but we fall to see how that argument lines up with the general conception of Jeffersonian simplicity. 0 The rumpus being created In the senate over the matter of the confirmation of the Taft appointments, merely demonstrates more clearly than ever that no matter how high the motives voiced before election, the cry afterwards is" "To the victorB belong the spoils." A Columbus (Ohio) preacher claims taut the effect of the Rev. Billy Sunday's campaigns is to set preachers free to speak the truth from their pulpits without fear or Well, that's something, to say the least.

A Boston girl claims she has never been kissed, whereat the editor of the Marlon, (Ohio) Star declares that the good things of this world aren't evenly divided. Heavens, man, but she's a Boston girl. 0 As one of the excellent results of the money trust investigating committee's work it has developed that Mr. Pujo's name is pronounced "Pew ho." We are beginning to be of the Opinion that London would be a beastly dull town, doncher know, if it were not for those English suffragettes. It is a safe bet that the man who sent the first valentine never guessed to what base use some of its successors would be put CURRENT COMMENT DEMOCRATS AND OFFICES.

(Indianapolis Star;) The Democrats of the United States senate are not pursuing a wise course in refusing to approve President Taft's nominations to fill federal offices made vacant near the end of his term. There are exceptional cases, of course, but In those instances where official terms are now closing in the regular course of time, )xe Is entirely and unquestionably right in making the appointments, the only excuse offered for not confirming them being the Democratic hunger for spoils. It is not an edifying spectacle to see senators of the United States encouraging this office grabbing tendency, They are not only doing a petty and undignified thing by showing discourtesy to the retiring president and by" engaging In an office stealing game, but are establishing a precedent that may yet arise to plague them. Moreover and this they seem not to have considered they are apparently proceeding In a way directly contrary to the wishes and principles of President elect Wilson. 1 AN INAPPOSITE EXAMPLE.

(Pittsburgh Dispatch.) It 'sounds rather curious to find a. contemporary referring to the decisive "part played 'by sea power in the war between the Balkan allies and Turkey' and going on to say: "Greece with her navy hao been able to keep the Turkish war vessels virtually bottled up in the Dardanelles, while Greece has occupied the most important of the Aegean islands as well as Salonika, the chief seaport of European Turkey." Now the fact is that the part borne by sea power in this conflict was so far from being decisive that it was almost ridiculous. Turkey practically lost the Aegean islands in the war with Italy, which gave an "eminent example of the circumstances under which sea power is decisive. Salonika was taken entirely by land operations, and it was not until that base was secured that the Grecian fleet undertook to blockade the Turks at the Dardanelles. So far the naval collisions there "they have been inconclusive, with the advantage mainly on the side of the Greeks, although It seems that the Hamedleh was able to set out and proceed to the Red sea.
