Vol. 11.
PROHIBIT PROFANITY.
A CnH'AGO FIIHI UOES.
The action of the big packing
firm of Swift tte Co., in posting
notices forbidding profanity on
the company's premises will re-
Iceive the unqualified commen
dation of every person who has
| any conception of the elemental
decencies of life.
It is not necessary to inquire
into the immediate causes which
led Swift A Co., to post the or
der. Its significance lies in the
j fact that a great corporation
employing 5000 persons in its
packing establishment should
'conceive it to be necessary or
desirable to forbid indulgence
in profanity among its employ
es. The presumption is that
tlie corporation was impelled by
considerations which affected its
own interests as well as the mor
als of the employes.
Profanity among employes in
such an establishment as that]
of Swift fc Co., is provocation
of bad temper and bad feeling.
It not only lowers the moral tone
of the employes who are com
pelled to listen to it, but it is a
breeder of distention. It is the
firebrand that kindles a hot tem
per and turns hatred into vio
lence. It is easy to see, there
fore, that it may lower theeffi-!
ciency of a large body of em-j
ployes.
As a matter of fact there is
not a shadow of excuse for pro
fanity in any relatiou or exegen
cy of life. It adds no force of
power to speech. It is the con
fession of vocal impotency in
the man who uses it. The blus
tering, bloviating blasphemer
who Hies into a rage and pours
forth a steam of profanity upon
all occasions is a man who is
not to be feared. When it
comes to a question of vocal dy
namics the man whose speech is
as clean and sharp as a hound's
tooth will inspire most fear and
respect.
The Americans have the repu
tation of being the most profane
people on earth. In no other
land or clime does the common
speech reek with the population
of profanity as here. The Jap
anese, the most docile, sweet
tempered, artistic, and ingen
ious people on earth, never poi
son the atmosphere of the
"Flowery Kingdom" with pro
fanity. There are no oaths or
cuss words in the Japanese lan
guage.
A traveler in England, Ger
many or France very rarely
hears the name of the Deity ta
ken iu vain. The continental
languages do not appear to lend
themselves to such vile and
variegated profanity as the An
glo-Saxon tongue is capable of.
Profanity is vile, disgusting,
and useless habit. It is the one
abhorrent blight upon a lan
guage that is destined one day
to become the common vehicle
of all human thought. Stop it.

Rich Without Money.
Many a man is rich without ;
money. Thousands of men
with nothing in their pockets,
!are rich. A man born with a
good stomach, a good heart,
and good limbs and a pretty
good head-piece is rich, (rood
bones are better than gold ;
tough muscles than silver ; and,
nerves that flash tire and carry,
energy to every function, are'
better than houses and lands. ,
It is better than a landed estate i
to have the right kind of father!
and mother. Good breeds and
bad breeds exist among men as
really as among herbs andhors-j
es. Education may do much
to check evil tendencies >r to
develop good ones ; but it is a
great thing to inherit the right
proportion of faculties to start
with. The man is rich who lias
a good disposition, who is nat
urally kind, patient, cheerful,
and hopeful an d wli o
has a flavor of wit and fun in
his composition.
The hardest thing to got on
with in this life is a man's own
self. A cross, selfish follow, a
despondiug and complaining
fellow, a timid and care-burden
ed man—these are all born de-:
formed on the inside. They do;
not limp, but their thoughts.
sometimes do.—Clay Manufact-1
erers' Engineer.
Read it in His Newspaper.
George Scliaub, a well known
German citizen of New Lebanon,
Ohio, is a constant reader of the j
Dayton Volkzeitung. He knows
that this paper aims to adver
tise only the best in its columns,
and when he saw Chamber
lain's Pain Balm advertised
therein for lame back, he did
not hesitate in buying a bottle
of it for his wife, who for eight
weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pain in her back
and could get no relief. He
says:. "After using the Pain
Balm for a few days my wife
said to me, 'I feel as though
born anew,' and before using
the entire contents of the bottle
the unbearable pains had en
tirely vanished and she could
again take up her household
duties."- He is very thankful
and hopes that all suffering
likewise will hear of her won
derful recovery. This valuable
liniment is for sale by Hood &

An Object Lesson in Stopping.

i
I
One of our friends who isn't,
noted for being especially care- i
fill of a machine was speeding!
along the other day, when he!
was held up by two blue-coated
guardians of the law.
"It's goin' too fast ye are,"
says one.
"Kape Iver down ter eight
miles er we'll run yer in." said
the second.
"But my friends, I wasn't
running fast at all—and then
you know we have great control
of these machines, too. Why,
we can stop in our own length."
"Gwan wid yes—yer can't
r.ull de wool over our eyes dat
way, see!"
"Well I'll tell you what. Just
climb up bellied here—both of
you—and I'll show you how."
After much persuading this
was accomplished, and they
started down tiie road at a live
ly rate. Suddenly, and without
warning, the operator reversed
the engine, and threw on both
'brakes. It was like hitting a
stonewall, and the air seemed
filled with blue cloth and police
men.
"Didn't I tell you I could
stop her quick?"
"Bedad, yer did, and if
'twasu't fer phat that sargint
wud ask me what I was be doin'
in the automobly, I'd run yet
in. Yer can sthop all roight,
but the landin' ov yer passen
gers is more suddint than illli
gant. If I get a chance to run
yer in for spheeding, I'll do it—
so kape yer eyes peeled.—Au

Ten Rules of Politeness for
Boys.
1. To be polite is to have a
kind regard for the feelings and
rights of others.
2. Be as polite to your par
ents, brothers, sisters and
schoolmates as you are to stran
gers.
3. Look people fairly in the
eyes when 3-ou speak to them or
they speak to you.
4. Do not bluntly contradict
any one.
5. It is not discourteous to
refuse to do wrong.
6. Whispering, laughing,
chewing gum or eating at lect
ures, in school or at places of
amusement, is rude and vulgar.
7. Be doubly careful to avoid
any rudeness to strangers, such
as calling out to them, laugh
ing or making remarks about
them. Do not stare at visitors.
8. In passing a pen, pencil,
knife or pointer, hand the blunt
end toward the one who receives
it.
9. When a classmate is recit
ing do not raise your hand until
he has finished.
10. When you pass directly
in front of anyone or accidently
annoy him, say : "Excuse me,"
and never fail to say "Thank
you" for the smallest favor. On
no account say "Thanks." —Sa-

Our Changed National Aim.
The supreme court of the
l .■ States by a .majority of
j 'tie lias declared ;liftt i lie ) ro
essed international aims of our
jUVfrr.iß nt are not what up t«.
i very recent date the great ma
jority of our people had sup
.o«ed them to be; that the
scope of our government under
.i> organic Saw has not hither o
been properly r.nder.-iocd
its powers enforced toiheir con
stitutional limits.
Our highest tribunal has in
formed us that until we were
dragged b) T the present admin
istration into the business of
acquiring territory on the other
side of the earth by force and
excluding it from participation
n our government we did not
••oaliz- that we might justly im
.lutein such pxen ise of out
i-'itffi r. Such an exttnsion ol
ilie functions of our govern
ment, if IK-re to, \\ i 1 neteoar
ily produce a change in tin
spirit of our people.
In his article on "An Earlier
American," which appears in
the North American Review for
the present month, Mr. W. D.
llowells considers this diver
gence from the original purpose
of our government in a very
suggestive manner.
He says : "It is very droll, as
well as very sad, to reHect that
at this verj- moment, doubtless,
the great majority of Americans
who have reached their grand
climacteric are desolated by the
bleak conviction that the}- are
the last of the true Americans ;
and the worst of it is, they have
only too much reason to think
so, if ttie writer may, without
sharing their impiety, make an
admission that so clearly, gives
away his epoch. Once in our
national conciousness, at least,
to the mystification of the un
believing and impenitent world
outside, we stood for something
different from anything a peo
ple had stood for before. Gall
it universal liberty or instruct
ive justice, or even by the tedi
ous name of humanity, it was
something novel and brave and
generous, and it differenced us
from all the monarchies, limit
ed, and unlimited, the conquer
ors, the oppressers.
********* *
"That, in the large way and
in the small way, was once sup
posed to be the meaning of
America. If it is no longer her i
meaning, and if she has become!
like unto the thrones, princi- j
palities and powers which deny ;
the unity of men, then it is up j
to her younger childern to prove j
that she has gone forward and ■
not backward, or that it is as |
practical to live in the ideal un-1
der the new conditions as under
the old."
These are serious words utter
ed on a solemn and far-reaching
question. No court has the
power to make decisions which
prevent such thoughts from
knocking at the door of the na
tional conscience, or allay the
apprehensions of men who are
deeply concerned for the honor
and safety of the country, whose
reflections cannot be made to j
cease and whose convictions'
cannot be made to cease and 1
whose convictions cannot be
stitfed by any amount of vain
glorious jabber.
We hear constantly brave
talk about what we have gained
by our new departure, but we
cannot shutout the thought dis
regard the question. What
have we lost?
Car of Dynamite Set Off.
While a freight train on the
Lackawaanna was taking water
at Vestal, ten miles west of here
at 9 :45 o'clock tonight, it was
run into from behind by a doub
le-headed wild-cat freight. In
the second car from the caboose
of the stationary train was a
large quantity of dynamite,
which was exploded by the im
pact. Six men ar9 known to
have been killed, three others
are thought to be in the wreck
and a number of others are
known to be badly injured. The
dead are J. M. Kelly, of Klmira,
Theodore Polhemus, of the same
place.
The explosion completely de
molished four freight cars
Much damage was done by con-i
cussion, most of the windows in
Vestal and Uuion being shatter
ed. Binghamton's plate glass
fronts did not escape, many of
the largest glasses in the centre
of the city being broken. The
shock was felt at a distance of
thirty miles. —Bingliamton, N
