THE PITH OF POLITICS. (By ARTHUR J. PILLSBURY.) It has seemed good and profitable for politics in the eyes of associated Bryanism to make Governor Theodore Roosevelt, of New York, Vice-Presidential candidate on the Republican ticket, the particular target for their mortar batteries engaged in mud throwing. This is to be accounted for in part by the fact that Mr. Roosevelt roiled the Bryan partisans up quite a little by his speech at St. Paul and partly from envy because of the unique position which he has hitherto occupied in the public mind. As for William McKinley, he has withstood so many onslaughts from mortar batteries hurling soft mud, and so little of it has stuck to him, that those batteries have been instinctively trained upon another target in the hope that results may be obtained. Even Mr. Marcus A. Hanna has escaped being assailed in this campaign as he was assailed four years ago and only Mr. Roosevelt is catching it. It won't hurt him. He will come out of the bath as flawless as he went into it and will even shine with an added lustre. An honest man of sense pursuing a consistent policy with courage is invulnerable to the assaults of malice even to the heel. Let us sketch, with the brevity of wit, if without other quality of it, the life line of the man who occupies the second place on the Republican ticket—sort of run our fingers over the keys, as it were, for an improvisation. A feeble childhood that kept him from playing roughly with other children until he was old enough to catch the idea that, if he would become a man he must perforce, develop a manhood, with the result that he has attained the perfection of a trained athlete. A youth given to study and sturdy equipment for life's rivalries, college bred and socially well bred, a manly young man with manly ideals. A young manhood given to travel, adventure, to the hardening processes of frontier life, developing physical course, self-possession, tact, and a thorough kowledge of nature and of the hardy, western type of Americanism that lives closest to nature. An entrance upon the serious business of life with a fixed purpose to lead a life that would be productive of results and results that will make the world the better for his having lived. Am Some men study that they may do things. Others do things they, hardly know how, usually "by main strength and awkwardness." Theodore Roosevelt is a knower and a doer. He is a man informed as few men are informed, and he is a man who acts with an energized executive force that few men are able to match. He fills full the measure of Ralph Waldo Emerson's ideal man. "Wise to know and bold to perform," which, Emerson declares, "is the end to which nature works." "What has Governor Roosevelt ever done?" That is the knock-down argument, fulminated by every man who would annihilate an adversary. Theodore Roosevelt will be 42 years old a few days before his election to the second biggest office within the gift of any people. At 23 he was elected to the New York assembly. The "push" took him up as a bright young fellow and put him in. The push wished it hadn't, for he remained there three terms fighting like a tiger for every good thing and against every bad thing, winning a national reputation in the New York assembly. What other man ever won a high and honorable reputation throughout the nation in the lower house of any state? Two years after retiring from the assembly the Republicans of New York city tried to make him mayor, but he failed and President Harrison, in 1889, made him a member of the Civil Service commission, where he was supposed to have feited all chances for political preferment by extending the civil service and establishing it on a sure foundation. He devoted six years of the most assiduous labor to that work, was the body, soul and spirit of the commission and by his efforts extended the classified service from 14,000 officers to 40,000. The next service he was called to was that of president of the New York board of police commissioners and the result was a reorganized police force such as New York had not had before and has not had since. To this work he devoted night and day, rolling out of bed at any hour of the night to go into suspected districts to see if men were on duty. The faithful officers were protected and promoted, the faithless ones were discharged. It was while serving as president of the New York police commission that President McKinley appointed Mr. Roosevelt Assistant Secretary of the Navy. From childhood he had been deeply interested in the navy, had made a study of naval tactics and warfare, and entered upon his new duties with it was the "Round Robbin" which started, which brought the volunteer home while there was yet life en route in them to enable them to get Red tape and punctillious superiority not stand between him and the salaries of the men. And President McKinley was on his side in that memorial struggle. In literature as well as in civic navy and the army Mr. Roosevelt achieved an enduring reputation. And this is the sort of man upon whom are trained the mud mortars of anism. They'll never touch him. Theodore Roosevelt never song office in his life, and yet nearly half life time has been spent in the service. He was called to every occasion because he was the man for that tion, as he was called to the vice decy against his own inclination would rather be governor of New York and complete the work of civic navy so well begun there. The entrance of such a man up-litical life in the United States prophecy. It is a new revelation will usher in a new dispensation will set the people to seeking more of his character and calling their service whether they would or not His enemies say of him that combative. Yes, but he never threw the thing that was right. Only doers of wrong have felt the force opposition. They say that he closed the looms of New York on Sunday, and therefore the Germans will not vex him. It was the law and he end it. Did he do wrong? He did make the law. And do the Bryan partisan firm that the Germans of America no thought above their beer? The man vote, when it is counted, will revelation to those who think they not. The German is not a man gle over Sunday beer when he heads his country is at stake. The pice-presidency will not swathe Theodore Roosevelt. He will with life and power and make it tor in affairs. If heaven grants him length of as author, statesman, warrior, M will become one of the great, co-inspiring figures in the history republic. He is the personification of enter-honesty, capacity and moral anful courage and when such men politics in sufficient numbers than politics will soon cease to tasteful to the most immaculate. A young manhood given to travel, adventure, to the hardening processes of frontier life, developing physical courage, self-possession, tact, and a thorough kowledge of nature and of the hardy, western type of Americanism that lives closest to nature. An entrance upon the serious business of life with a fixed purpose to lead a life that would be productive of results and results that will make the world the better for his having lived.

It was while serving as president of the New York police commission that President McKinley appointed Mr. Roosevelt Assistant Secretary of the Navy. From childhood he had been deeply interested in the navy, had made a study of naval tactics and warfare, and entered upon his new duties with patriotic zeal. He foresaw the war with Spain and set about making the navy ready for it. It was owing to his persistency that vast sums were expended for ammunition to be used in target practice with the result that the man behind the gun knew how to shoot. Having completed this work he reigned as assistant secretary of the navy to organize the Rough Riders and equip them for service. He could have had a brigadier's commission without question, but so far from indulging a vaulting ambition of that sort he chose Leonard Wood to be colonel and took the place of lieutenant-colonel under his friend whom he thought, knew more about war than he. As to his service in Cuba, no one will question its courage, its patriotism or success. And the crowning glory of Can you spare a few dollars a month? If so, read this advertisement carefully.

"Line upon line" is the way a building grows. The "Mickle" in this Scotch proverb is something very small, but the "muckle" is something great. One microscopic bacillus makes impure blood, and "muckle wae" (much disease and disaster) follows. Hood's Sarsaparilla cleans the blood as nothing else can. It brings "muckle" joy at "mickle" cost.

How Expresses Drop Men. "While coming from Chicago last week," said a prominent business man to a Mall and Express reporter, "I noticed a peculiar railroad custom which interested me considerably. I happened to be in the last car of the limited when the train stopped in a desolate spot between stations. The rear brakeman, of course, dropped off and went down the track with a flag to warn any train that might be following us. In a moment or two we started up again, but minus the brakeman. I wondered at this, but was still more surprised later on to see the same thing repeated when we were obliged to stop on account of a threatened hot box. Upon inquiry I found that this was the custom on fast trains. 'Sometimes, if we have lots of time,' said the conductor, 'we whistle for the men to come in, but in mose cases we leave them to be picked up by the next train or to walk to the nearest station.' "But isn't that rather hard on the men?" I asked. 'Oh, it's all part of the death McCullough Lost a Bet. William H. Crane, the actor, once told this story on his old friend McCullough. He said that one night in San Francisco he was awakened from a sound sleep by McCullough pounding on the door of his room and in response to his sleepy inquiry as to what was wanted responded: "Let me in, Billy. I want you to decide a bet." Once in, McCullough told Crane that he and the man who accompanied him had bet a $20 goldpiece as to who could stand the longer on one foot and that Crane must referee the contest. The preliminaries being arranged and the stakes deposited, time was called, and each contestant, lifting a foot from the floor, stood like a crane, while the real Crane lay back in a recumbent position with a drowsy eye on the contestants. The seconds dragged into minutes, which again threatened to extend into the hour without either disputant giving up. Suspecting something was wrong, Crane waked himself up and examined his men more closely. The other man was wavering a bit, but McCullough was standing like a rock. Another five minutes went by, and then Crane, hoping out of bed, discovered that McCullough had one foot resting against an adjacent sofa and could have stood there for a week, if necessary. The other man won the bet, but the joke was on the referee. Never Admit Defend. Never admit defeat or poverty, though you seem to be down and have not a cent. Stoutly assert your divine right to be a man, to hold your head up and look the world in the face. Step bravely to the front whatever opposes, and the world will make way for you. No one will insist upon your rights while you yourself doubt that you possess the qualities requisite for success. Never allow yourself to be a traitor to your own cause by undermining your self confidence. There never was a time before when persistent, original force was so much in demand as now. The namby pamby, nerveless man has little show in the hustling world of today. In the twentieth century a man must either push or be pushed. Every one admires the man who can assert his rights and has the power to demand and take them if denied to him. No one can respect the man who slinks in the rear and apologizes for being in the world. Negative virtues are of no use in winning one's way. It is the positive man, the man with original energy and push, that forges to the front—Success.
