looked at the substance OF things, and
had very little taste for technical con-
siderations that did not affect the

think his candor was extraerdi-
nary. Whatever might be his pre-
vious impressions he did not allow
combativeness of intellect to lead him to
maintain the opposition against sum
cient reasons in the opposite direction.
In his personal and private life he was
one of the most gentle, cordial, and ap-
proachable men 1 ever met, and bis Kind
ness of heart was so great that in the
midst of affairs and society here, where
he must have known so many instances
OF evil and improperly, / don't remem-
Der ever TO have heard him make an UNI
kind remark to. any person IN
the world-to mention a circumstance
or employ a witicism against or at the
expense of another. 1 feel more ready
to say this so broadly, for my personal
private intercourse with him has been
for the whole period of his life here OF
the most intimate, friendly, aud conf
dental character. There is not word
of criticism that can be said against him,
and there il everything to say for him IN
all the respects that make up just and
upright Judge, honorable, kindly, and
Christian citizen.
HIS SUCCESSOR on THE BENCH.
Among the members of the House the
expressions Of regret were general.
There was a general Discrimination TO say
anything upon the subject Of the selec-
ton OF n successor and the only express
sons Of opinion touching upon the mat
ter came from few southern members,
who suggested that Speaker Carlisle Is
eminen,ly fitted for the position on the
Supreme bench and that 1t would not be
unacceptable to him. They did not care
TO say this publicly, however, ct this time.
OTHER EXPRESSIONS.
Mr.. Culberson, of Texas, chairman Of
the House Judiciary Committee, said !:
"His loss is national bereavement and
it will be difficult TO find man who will
sustain the dignity of the position Of

MIR. Crisp, Of Georgia, said The

THE FUNERAL RRANGEMENTs.
No arrangements for the funeral can
be made until the wishes Of Mrs. Waite
arc made known. II is the intention OF
the members Of the family TO have the
interment take place at Toledo, the old
residence OF the Chief Justice, unless
Mrs Waite should signify different de
sire. In case the interment takes place
at Toledo It is probable that the remains
will leave here on Wednesday or Thurs
day for Ohio, tue purpose being to have
Mrs. Waite meet the body there on her

Germanv,s "Rations of Iron. .

the name given by The Militar Wochen-

German soldier is now compelled to carry

canned provision is put up in America,

Death of Mr.. Hinckley.

The death of Isacc Hinckley. pres
ident of the Philadelphia, Wilmington
& Baltimore Railroad Company, re-
moves another of the few yet left who
have been connected with railroads and
railrOading in this county for nearly
half a century. Since 1865 he has been
president of the P. w. & B. Railroad.
and it was largely through his instru-
mentality that the road in 1881 passed
into the control of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company. The result has
shown the wisdom of that act, as there
is now no better conducted or man
aged road in this country than the P,
w. & B. When Mr.. Hinckley first
entered railway service in 1916, on the
Boston & Providence Railroad, the
business was vastly different to what it
is to-day but he lived to see it com.
pletely revOlutiOnized, and brought it
to its present state of perfection.

Training for Brain STRENGTH.

The Spartan youth were trained from
infancy for a soldiers life. Then m. le
might was the great power Nowadays
brain force is the acknowledged might.
Mind must contend with mind. This is
the law in every phase of life. Why,
then, do not people do as much for the
mental as the ancients did for the physi-
cal man We are a common sense people
Yet, with all our common sense, we have

A RIooded Racers Pluck.

A blooded racer possesses one essential
quality that scrub horses seldom have
pluck. You will find many common
horses that possess fine points so far as
winG, muscle and structure are concerned; /;
but in race they will nearly always
throw up their tails and give up in disgust
if passed by an adversary, or if they feel
like they can't win. Flora Temple, the
queen of trotters in her day, was an ex-
ceptiOn to this rule. She never knew
what it was TO be beaten, and always put
forth her utmost efforts until the driver
commanded her to slacken her speed. A
race horse is like a gamecock in that he
must have nerve to supplement his nat
ural powers. There are blooded animals
that will go their level best until they
drop. 1t is useless to use a whip on that
kind of an animal; they are born fighters,
and eXult as much in a victory as their
owners. Such racers also have superior
intelligence, and if they are not too high
strung they can be trained in the arts and
tricks of the turf. All blooded animals
do not possess pluck, however, and such
as are lacking in this quality are more fit
for the plow than the track.-"Jock
in Globe Democrat.

The Way to Fall Down.

''The special providence that seems to
hover over drunken men and children has
something of an explanation, 2" said well
known and eminent medical man to a re-
porter, in the fact OF the main cause of
the breakage Of bones from falls being
from q resistance of the tendons more
often than from the violence of the shock
incident to the actual fall A child or an
intoxicated person will rarely endeavor
with any great effort to recover their bal
ance when they slip or topple over. Hence
no special resisting force is exercised, and
they sink into collapsed heap without
serious injury. When an adult in possess
sion Of his sound senses undertakes, with
endless contortions and gyrations, to save
himself from going down, he draws every
muscle and sinew taut, and IL the wrench
is too severe the bone breaks. There is
no way Of definitely proving it, but it is
asserted, and believe with some show Of
truth, that some, at least Of the fractures
resulting from falls, especially from a
height, happen before the actual shock
with the substance one falls on occurs.
It's strange, but guess it is the truth. {"

BRIGHTER PICTURE.
Not long since, 1 was sitting in my
room one Friday evening, engaged in
reading, when a knock came at nv
door, and on being answered, four lit
tie girls came in. They are about the
same age as the three girls have Just
mentioned, being from ten to thirteen
years old. With their clean clothing.
which is thick and warm, and their
bright faces, they formed a pleasant
group. They said they were trying to
love and serve Jesus, and wanted to be
the children of God would l prav
with and for them? This I was verv
glad to do, and, turning to the words
of our Saviour, we read and talked
awhile together, then all kneeled down
and led in prayer, followed by each
of the little girls. Their words were
few and simple, but earnest and full of
trust. We then closed by singing a
hymn. AS they were about leaving,
the smallest of the girls, Second Pre-
cious (Nie Pam, came up to me and
said, " l am greatly pleased to worship
God. Can l come again next Friday
eveningW Upon this all the others

happy heart 1 said, that l would be
glad to have them come. AS they
were passing out, thought how differ

little girls in the thickly crowded vii
lagos and hamlets about us.

but the marriage day, the home they
are to go into, and of the dreadful

by the coming of the Christmas box
from over the waters. To me the
greatest joy was experienced at the
time of the opening of the box, by see
ing the names of the givers marked on
the gifts. To know that these friends
are thinking Of, and praying for us and
the work here is made doubly sure by
their effort in gathering together and
sending these tokens to us. We great
ly appreciate their interest, and return
our heartfelt thanks.
About two evening after Christmas.
l went into the school dormitory to
give one of the girls some medicine.
and while there looked around to see
if the children fully appreciated their
presents, and especially if they cared
for, and knew how to play with their
dolls. 1t was nearly bed time and to
my surprise every one had her doll in
her arms; even the smallest ones, who
were asleep, had theirs close up to
their faces on their pillows. All were
happy, and heard one say, 1t is be-
cause the people in the foreign country
love Jesus, that they are so kind, and
think of sending these gifts to us here. 5"

that the mGin-spring of christian effort
