There is an end at last to the Great
Eastern, whose career has been long
and unbroken series of failures and dis
asters. She has been purchased for
G16, 800 by well-known firm of metal
brokers at Liverpool and Swansea, and
is to be broken up at once. The cost of
this destructive operation will be at least
910,O0C.
The syndicate who were to purchase
what are known as the Burton mines,
on the Gogebic range, want another re-
duction Of fifty per cent, which would
make the price one-fourth of what it
was first proposed to sell the properties
for, and the sale will not be made. The
people of Lake Geneva have invested
largely in these mines, and will be heavy
losers

An Explanation Of Its Numerous Admi.

Sir John Thurston stated that the

as his experience that he had seen his
foreman cured Of drunkenness by being
made to swallow paste consisting OF
kola and cream. An explanation Of
this property Of the kola-nut may be
looked for In the fact that II contains
more than two pen cent Of caffeine, the
active ingredient OF tho coflee-bean,

Learn to Prefer Others 70 Yourself In the

Many good people who inveigh
against the world are, In an uncon-
Iscious way, quite Us culpable as their
lneighbors. The truth is that people
lin general are so wrapped up in them.
selves that they do not oven think Of
the Inconvenience or annoyance they
may be causing to others by their
thopgthless rudeness, The true gen.
tlemen and ladies are those who have
acquired the unconscious habit OF pre-
ferring, In the thousand little things
that make up social life, others to
themselves. Let this principle be ap-
piled to few very common o1fenses
against good manners.
! Some people habitually 60 to church
Int, or leave o cOncert-rOom before
the programme is completed, and
while some one Is actually playing or
singing. They discompose not only the
minister or the artists, but every one
in their immediate neighborhood.
Why do they do thisP 1t is simply an
exhibition OF unconscious selhshness,
They do not think 1t worth while to
hurry themselves In order to reach
church few minutes earlier, and In
order to save themselves little incon-
venienco In leaving with the rest OF the
audience, they depart few minutes
sooner. This Is all that enters their
heads; not for one moment do they
consider that the little trouble they
save themselves IL q hundred times
counterbalanced by the annoyance
which they are causing. They
do not think, because they are not in
the habit of thinking, except Of their
own interest. But the very essence OF
the courtesy that characterizes the
true lady or gentleman Is this habit Of
thinking. The reason why SO many
people slam doors. or leave them open;
why 'gentlemen'' puff tobacco smoke
into the faces OF ladies they are accom-
panying, or whom they may be pass
ing; why people In church do not
check the chorus Of coughing that
breaks out Immediately the sermon
commences, and hundred other
familiar instances, 10 precisely the
same unconscious selfishness. Thought

veniencc OF others are concerned, is
