Plenty OF Men, wnIing to Don Uncle

There is no dearth of men in the coun-
try who are willing to wear the United
States uniform. The applications
average larger number than the legal
linit of the enlisted strength of the
Army. In 1888 there were "a, ITO appli-
cations for enlistment. OF these 1907
were rejected. In the last eight years
the average number of applications was
25, ,661; of reflections, f6.s46; while not
witlastanding the large number of men
offering themselves at the. recruiting
ofaces. the Army last year lacked 800
OF The legal N5y 900.
The rejection OF nearly % per cent. Of
the men who apply for admission to the
rank and file of the Army indicates, of
course, not only care in the selection Of
those who are accepted, bat also the low
character of very many of the applicants.

patton leave unmistakable signs upon the

bears them does not get as far asithe first

After Life.

1t can not be that earth is mans only
abiding place. It can not be that our
life is bubble cast upon the ocean of
eternity, to float a moment upon its
surface, and then go into nothingness
and darkness forever. Else, why is it
that the high and glorious aspirations
leap like angels from the temples of our
hearts and forever wander abroad, un-
satisfied? Why is it that the rainbow
and the cloud come over with beauty
that is not of earth and then pass off and
leave us to muse on their faded lowell
ness? Why is it that the stars which
hold their festival around the midnight
throne are set above the grasp of our
limited faculties, forever knocking US
with their unapproachable glory? And,
finally, why is it that bright forms of
human beauty are presented to the view
and then taken from us, leaving the
thousand streams of the affections to
flow back in Alpine torrents upon our
heartsp We are born for higher des-
tiny than earth. There is q realm where
the stars will be spread out before us
like the islands that slumber ON the ocean;
and where the beautiful beings that here
pass before us like visions will stay in
our presence forever. George ID. Prem
tice

Pasteur might have been the richest
man in the world If he had cared for the
commercial value of his discoveries In
addition to his discoveries in the preven-
ton of hydrophobia he discovered the
cause of mysterious disease among silk
worms, which threatened to destroy the
silkworm industry in France, and ap-
piled remedy. The wine growers Of
France and Italy complained Of their
wines being slow to mature and the
grapes to turn sour; Pasteur's investiga-
tions of the yeast germs taught the grower
how these evils could be cured. He dis
covered the microbe which propagates
disease in sheep, and suggested
remedy. These discoveries represent
gain to the community of many millions
of dollars, but the great scientist has
made no effort to profit personally from
any of them.

SHAMROCK.
only One Species OF It Known In ire

Only One Species OF It Known I'm rrs-
land.
In ireland only one shamrock is
known. 1t is an indigenous species of
clover, which trails along the ground
among the meadows. The trefoil leaves
are not more than one fourth the size of
the smallest clover j have seen in Amer
lea, and are pure green in color without
any of the brown shading of white and
pink clovers. The creeping stem is hard
and fbrous and Is difficult TO dislodge
from the earth.
On st. Patrick's day the true sham
rock has to be searched out from among
the grass, for, though comparatively
plentiful at that season, 1t grows close
to the ground. Later it bears tiny
~whitey brown" blossom. The infor-
nation that shamrakh is the Arabic
word for trefoil is new to me, and may be
ofservice to those interested in the origion
of the Irish race. The word could have
been introduced by the Milesians, or il
may furnish an argument in support of
the contention that one of the lost ten
tribes of Israel settled in Ireland, which
has been revived by the publication of q
recent book. - American Notes and

Dr. Nansen. who rambled across the
snow waste OF Greenland 10 no particu-
lar purpose last year. Is getting readyfor
his north pole voyage. His ship Is built,
his crew selected, and he viii sail from
Norway in February. aiming to reach
Behring's Straits by next June. He will
follow the route of the Jeanette into
the Siberian archipelago. and thence go
northward as far Ss possible. and seek to
strike into the current which he believes
TO set toward the polar sea from near
Herald Island. Nordenskiold, in his
voyage in the Vega, saw evidence OF this
cross current: SO did the Austrian, Preyer,
who discovered Franz Josef Land, and
thesurvivors of the Jeanette expedition.
But Nansen relies upon what he regards
as convincing proof, namely, the dicov-
cry off the coastsof Greenlandof articles
which had belonged TO the Jeannette.
These were found frozen In floating ice
far to the north, three years after De
Long abandoned his vessel, and Nansen
holds that they must have been borne
from near Herald Island across the polar
sea by such a current as he expects to
find and follow. The schooner in which
he sails is of only 10 tons burden. shaped
on peculiar model, a variation from
the Norwegian whaler, her sides being so
inclined that it is believed she can not
be crushed in the pinching of the ice,
but viii be lifted by it out of danger.
He carries five years supplies for IL men.
If he does not find his current, but has
to abandon his schooner in the ice, he
proposes to set out on foot for the pole.
If he gets there with time to spare he
means to survey and map the region.
Still, even if he takes his kodak along,
and brings back photographs of the orig
inal pole and all that's thereabout, what
will it all be worth to the world2

ONE GENT


When q man rides along the streets on
horseback, with his feet crowded into the
stirrups Of the saddle until the front Of
the heel is caught by the bottom of the
stirrup people are apt to look at him and
say he does not know how to ride. They
will declare that the proper style is to
rest the ball of the foot on the stirrups,
with the toes turned inward. That Is
English, you know. but 1t is not the style
in which cowboysor long distance riders
carry themselves. can give as my au-
thority for this latter statement Frank
James, who, in a rather adventurous ca
reer, certainly did some long and hard
riding. We were talking about the
proper seat of an equestrian while he was
on trial at Gallatin several years ago. and
he said:
Il have no doubt that the English seat
is all right for park purposes, but should
you ever desire to put 10 miles between
yourself and given point before sun up
next morning you will find ii best to push
your feet into the stirrups as far as they
viii go, sit back in the saddle in such q
way that your feet are braced against
the stirrups, which will be pushed for
ward, and then let her go. "-[St Louis
Globe Democrat.
