The True Secret of succ ess.

The cost of producing the different brands
of Anheuser- Busch beer is largely increased in
consequence of the well-known fact that in
its manufacture neither corn nor corn prepa-
tion is used. This increased cost in its pro-
duction necessarily brings about an increase
in lis cost to the dealer, who is required to
pay from 50 to 81 more per bbl. than is
extra tax appears hard on the inn-keeper
the refined taste of the beer-consuming public
must be catered to and the demand supplied,
hence it is that in the quality of the Anheuser-
Busch brands we find the secret of its univer-
sal sale.

1t Is Alleged That Americans Are Not
Saving People.
One thing OF which the vast majority of the
American people are Justly accused is a
neglect to be saving. And yet it is said of
them that their one object is the attainment
of the almighty dollar The two statements
are inconsistent, for IL the great majority of
us have but the one object in life-tbat of
making money-we could hardly accomplish
that object unless we were saving. The truth
of the matter is this: We are neither grasping,
nor are we reckless in the extreme of what we
make. Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that
we do as people allow to slip from us many
dollars which by the exercise of little econ
omy would go to provide for the rainy day
which sooner or later comes to most of US.
The exercise of this economy should appeal es-
pecially to the young, for not only In the case
OF the young man, but equally as
well in the case of the young
which is laid aside from their earnings
determine their independence, and later on
form the stepping stone to ease and pros
perity. 1t is most remarkable fact In life
that the longer we delay setting aside the
first penny or dollar that much more difficult
does it become to make the effort later in
life. But once inaugurated, this setting aside
of all above ones actual necessities, so grows
upon one that its accumulation is watched

other undertaking. And it is really marvel
Gus, once beginning is made in this direc-
tion, how quickly neat little sum is ac-
quired from which spring possibilities for
comfort and protection against waste.
When once such step is determined upon,
the inquiry naturally arises where shall the
little sum to be set aside be placeds And, as
naturally, one wishes for an institution where
the amount may be deposited subject to all
the conveniences of regularly established
banking account Only until recently was
such an institution to be found in Washing
ton and to Messrs. Woods & Co., 1922 f
street northwest, is due the distinction Of es
tablshing here regularly equipped banking
house for the announcement of depositors of
small sums. Five dollars is sufficient to open
an account, and the same courteous attention
is given such depositors as is given to deposit
tors of thousands Messrs. Woods & Co. do
general banking business, and q close in
quiry into their business methods will demon
strate a close adherence to sound financial
principles They draw both foreign and do
mestic exchange, doing business in that line
with every known banking institution in this
and other countries. The bank is open from
$3.50 a. m. to 4:30 p. m, an especially convent
ent feature, and an especial welcome is ex-
tended to ladies, to whom advice or suggestion
looking toward closer understanding of
financial affairs will be cheerfully and courte-
ously given at all times.

The Lip Ring of the MangapIa.

1t is n very curious study to note the
variety of feminine ornamentation in the
different nations, and how what may be
considered rs n bcautifier by one race
becomes positive monstrosity aud de-
formity in the eyes of another One of
the most curious decorations in the
world is adopted by the women of the
Manganja tribe, inhabiting country in
Africa near one of the northern tributaries
of the Zambesi. 1t is called the "pelele."
This is a ring, but it is fixed neither in
the ear nor the nose as with other races,
but in the upper lip. 1t is q ring made
of ivory, metal, or bamboo, according
to the wealth of the wcarer; is nearly an
inch in thickness, and varies in diameter
at the will of the wearer, many being
nearly three inches in diameter from
outer edge to edge. When the girls are
very young they have the lip pierced
with two holes close to the nose, and q
small wooden peg inserted to keep the
wound from closing. When the wound
heals, two small holes are left in the lip,
into which larger pegs are successfully
introduced until, in about Two years, the
full-sized "pelele" eau be worn. It's
effect, when worn, is INDISPENSABLE.
When at rest it hangs down over the
mouth; when food is taken, it projects
horizontally, like small shelf, aud when
the dusky maiden smiles upon her adj
nirer, it clevates itself, turning upside
down until its lower edge rests against
the bridge of the nose, the tip of the
nose appearing through the centre, and
eyes looking round each side. AS the
teeth are generally filed to sharp points,
until they resemble those OF crocodile,
the effect may be better imagined than
described. Chikanda Kadze, wife of
the great Chief, had ''pelele" that
hung below her chin.
The original of this horrible ornament
(D is unknown, and the reasons given
for it are amusing, the natives saying:
.'What kind of n creature would O
woman be without ''pelelea" She
would have q mouth like man and no
beard to cover it. IN different districts
it varies slightly in shape, being
cylindrical, instead of round; or like a
fiat dish, instead of ring.-Ladiss' Home

CLOTHING THE POOR.

There Is an organization of phllan-
thropic women in England known as the
''Needic Work Guild" who make aud
give to the poor good plain clothing
with the idea that when it is necessary
to supply clothing, new garments appeal
TO their sclf-respcct in way that old
ones cannot. The guild is not intended
to dill church missionary boxes or for
church sales or bazars, but to make and
give necaful clothing directly to the
poor. Last year the English guild con-
tributcd four hundred thousand new gar
ments for this purpose. A guild was
started last year in this country in Phila-
delphia By Mrs. John Wood Stewart, OF
Glen. Ridge, N. j., on the simple lines
adopted in England. 1t is undenomina.

BerometrIc Plants.

A scientist gives list of prognostics
apropos of the aspect that certain plants
present according to the state of the at
mospere. The following are the ex-
amples: If the head of the 9Th droops,
it will be warm; if the head of the same
plant stands upright, it will be cool; if
the stalk of clover and other leguminous
plants stand upright, there will be rain;
if the leaf of the wood sorrel turns up, it
is sign of n storm; if the leaf of the
whitlow grass slowly bends up, there
will be storm; if the flower of the con-
volyulus closes, it will rain; if the
flower of the pimpernel closes, it will
rain; If the flower of the hibiscus closes,
it will rain; if the flower of the sorrel
opens it will be fine weather; if the
flower of the same plant closes, it will rain
if the flowers of the carline thistle close,
there will be storm; if the flower of
the lettuce expands, it will rain; if the
flower of the small bind-wced closes,
look out for rain; if the flower of the
pitcher plant turns upside down, it will
rain; but if it stands erect, it will be
fine weather.; if the flower of the cinque
foil expands, there will be rain; but, if
it closes, the weather will be fair; if the
flowers of the African marigold close ii
will rain; if the scales of the teasel be-
came close pressed against each other, it
will rain.

Lieutenant Wilson, who was with
Commodore Farragut during the war,
has a history that is like a romance from
the "Arabian Nights" if imagination
may be allowed to fill in the rounded
periods. About eighteen or nineteen
years ago he left this country for On ex-
ploration of Europe and Africa. Hc
reached Zanzibar in the course of time,
and by some chance learned of an island
called Johnna, lying off the coast OF
Southern Africa, considerable distance
below Zanzibar, which could be pur-
chased for small sum of money. He
visited the island and found it to be- in @
delightful climate, with soil especially
adapted to raising sugar cane. It is
about twenty-five by thirty miles in size,
and. having bought it, he proceeded to
turn it into a vast sugar plantation. La
Dor is cheap, the cost of living next te
nothing, and the sugar commands high
prices at Bombay. He has several hun
bred employees, has made the island {
vertically little kingdom, and has become
Immensely wealthy.

DETECTIVES N SWELL SOCIETY.

Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt has reused
the social critics of New York by engag-
ing detectives to mix with the guests at
grand ball given at her house recently.
On previous occasion several of her
guests lost valuable jcwelry, and the same
thing occurred at other houses. At the
BILLS ball there were several costly pieces
lost or purloincd, and several disappear
ances occurred at the Webb Twombly
reception. The sticklers for etiquette in
society are inquiring whether or not it is
good taste for host to have detective
located in the rooms where he cntertains
his guests. In other words, the question
is asked whether or not it would not be
far better to give q light fingered gentle
man an opportunity to capture Mrs. w.
*. Vanderhilt's royal crown OF pearls
and diamonds or Mrs. Cornelius Wander
bilt's emeralds than to offend scores of
people by introducing detective to their
society and thus marring the privacy and
exclusiveness of an otherwise delightful
cntertainment.-iSan Ffaneiseo LIAM
