House Built by Washington.

st. Paul Pioneer Press.
1t is singular fact that the only
house ever built in Washington city
by the father of his country is still
standing on North Capital street, in
that city, in comparative obscurity.
Few Washington people know of its
existence, and it is never pointed out
as a structure of historic interest.
The reason for this lies probably in
the fact that the house, as originally
built, contained three stories, but
when the street was graded two more
stories were added, and the building
is now used as a hotel. 1t is said that
some of the rooms in this old build.
ing are in much the same condition
as when occupied by Washington's
family in 1892.
A building of this kind should be
utilized as a museum for historical
curios, and not vandalized by second
class hotel-keepers.

The Battle of Life.

The true hero will endeavOr to

is robust constitution. Like a good

ease is in the atmosphere or lowering

will fOrtify his system against every
encrOachment the grim monster may
seek to make. Many a grand life
has ended for want of timely precau-
ton in the hour of need. When fe-
yer and influenza are abroad, when
the damp chilly days touch the mar
row bones, when effiuvia and malaria
walk hand in hand, then it is that
the system should be fortified by a

Standard McMINNVILLE TENNESSEE SATURDAY. JAN 1901

In Denmark and Sweden it has
been the custom for many years to
weigh and measure the school-chil~
dren every year. Out of $4,000 boys
and 5000 girls the results were as fol~
lows: "In the seventh or eighth year
of life boys grow considerably in
height and weight, after which a
delay sets in which reaches its maxi
mum in the tenth year and lasts till
the fourteenth year, when consider
able acceleration of growth suddenly
sets in. This acceleration lasts till the
end of the seventeenth year. Its
maximum is in the fifteenth year.
The acceleration is at first in height
and later on in weight, gaining its
maximum in the latter in the six
teenth year. At the end of the nine
teenth year bodily development of
youth seems to end. In girls the
course Of development is quite differ
ent. The decrease in growth after
the eighth year is not so great as in
boys and yields in the twelfth year to
rapid increase in height. The accel>
GRAFTON in the increase in weight
comes later, but outstrips it in the
fourteenth year. In the seventeenth
or eighteenth year the increase is but
slight. The increase in weight, how
ever, sinks to zero almost in the
twentieth year, when the growth in
women may be regarded as ended"
A remarkable thing is that boys
grow faster than girls in weight and
height till the eleventh year, then
more slowly till the sixteenth, and
then faster again. With slight varia-
tons these relations obtain all over
Sweden and Denmark.

DOZEN OR SCORE ?
A Plea for Selling Things by the Lat
ter Rather than the Former.

Away with the Dozen," cries the
usually sedate and decorous Boston
Transcript. But it is not demanding
that city fathers shall be sent to the
guillotine, but that the custom of SELL
ing articles by the dozen shall be
abolished and the practice of selling
by the score encouraged in its place.
Any person who will be at the
trouble of little observation, can
hardly fail of being surprised at the
amount of delay, and often of posi-
tive inconvenience, arising from this
adherence to the use OF the dozen and
the half dozen in small transactions,
as though people were restrained by
high and occult reasons from buying
four, five, eight or ten of anything.
Plainly, therefore, the dozen should
have taken its departure long ago
with the old shilling and pence sys-
tenn of which it was a constituent
part, and of which at present it is only
relic. Now, proper unit of count
is convenience in some kinds of re-
tail trade; and fortunately, we have
such unit in the score of twenty, a
measure which is as old as the Eng

Finish What You Begin.

My old great-grandmother had
way of making her children finish
their work. If they began a thing,
they must complete it. If they
undertook to build cob house,
they must not leave it till it was
done; and nothing of the work or
play to which they set their hands
would she allow them to abandon in
complete. l sometimes wish 1 had
been trained in this way. How much
of life is wasted in unfinished work i!
Many a man uses up his time in
splendid beginnings. The labor de-
voted to commence ten things and
leave them useless would finish five
Of them and make them profitable
and useful. Finish your work. Life
is brief; time is short. Stop Begin
ming forty things, and 60 back and
finish four.

The Choir to be Heard Only.

Chicego Advance.
1t has become quite customary for
our churches to put gallery for the
choir either behind the minister or
beside the minister. The people
want to see the singers; they want to
face the music. / do not like the
custom. These last months l have
been sitting in the pews, and have
faced the music. have thus added
evidence, drawn from observation, to
my theories, that music should be
heard and not seen; it should appeal
to the ear, and not to the eye.
The sense of worship in song,
through the agency of the ear, is
marred by the distractions which the
eye brings. The Organist, jumping
about on his seat, paving the pedals,
pulling the stops, the size of the So
prano's mouth, the eccentrcities of
dress and department, all these the
eye brings to the heart and mind and
thus serves to mar the sense of wor-
ship. No, no; let us hide our must
clans in order the better to hear their
music,

Friends After a Fight.


North Carolina Presbyterian.
A fine Newfoundland dog and a
mastiff had a fight over a bone, or
some other trifling matter. They
were fighting on bridge, and being
blind with rage, as is often the case,
over they went into the water.
The banks were so high that they
Were forced to swim some distance
before they came to landing-place.
1t was very easy for the Newfound-
land dog; he was as much at home
in the water as a seal. But not so
with poor Bruce. He struggled and
tried his best to swim, bnt made little
Roadway.
Old Bravo, the Newfoundland, has
reached the land and turned to look
at his old enemy. He saw plainly
that his strength was falling, and
that he was likely to drown. So
what should he do but plunge in,
seize him gently by the collar, and,
keeping his nose above water, tow
him safely into port.
1t was curious to see the dogs look
at each other as soon as they shook
their wet coats. Their glances said
plainly as words, eve will never
quarrel any more"

QUIET WAYS ARE THE BEST.

What's the use OF worrying,
0thurrying,
And scurrying,
Everybody flurrying
And breaking up their rest?
When every one is teaching us,
Preaching and beseeching us,
To settle down aud end the fuss,
For quiet ways are the best.
The rain that trickles down in showers,
A blessing brings to thirsty flowers,
Sweet fragrance from each trimming cup
The gentle zephyrs gather up. 'rI~
There's ruin in the tempest's path;
There's ruin in voice of wrath; 'I
And they alone are best
Who early learn to dominate "a
Themselves, their violence abate,
And prove, by their serene estate,
That quiet ways are best. aI
Nothing gained by worrying,
by hurrylng,
And scurrying.
With fretting and with flurrying
The temper's often lost,
And in pursuit of some small prize
We rushed ahead and are not wise,
And find the unwonted exercise
Afearful price has cost
lis better far to join the throDg
That do their duty right along;
Relucta mt they to raise fuss,
Or make themselves ridiculous.
Calm aud serene in heart and nerve,
Their strength is always in reserve,
And nObly stands each test;
And every day and all about,
BY scenes within and scenes without,
We eau discern, with ne'er doubt,
That quiet ways are best.
