Hero Of Everyday Life.


 There is a man in Atchison who is he- TO, though, if you should call him one, he would scarcely know what the word meant. His wife recently died and left him with eight children. He labors hard by day and manages his homework after night. After doing hard days work he will be gin the family washing, to be finished and hung on the line next morning, the iron ing to be done the second night. He could not afford a sewing woman, so he has, by constantly trying, learned to run s ma chine and cut and fit. The oldest girl is growing up and will be great help to him in few years. His little children are sent to school every day, and they appear as neatly and comfortably dressed as any in the school. He did not scatter his family among his relatives nor send them to an orphan asylum. He kept them together, and their home is almost as comfortable as it was when the mother was alive. He is hero, and the greatest kind of a hero, from the fact that he does not realize that he is hero at all.

 crtbed to the Desert Overflow.
 VIENNA, Aug. 1S.-A dispatch from Botzen, an Austrian town at the conflu, ence of the Talfer and the Eisach, an. nounced the partial destruction of the vii. lage of Kollman through a could-burst. The cloud burst over the mountains near Botzen, which is protected from inunda- tons by strong dyke two miles in length, The fall of water flooded the lowlands and converted mountain stream into tor rent, which swept through the village of Kollman, carrying away men and cattle and destroying half the houses of that place.
 The cloud-burst occurred at midnight. The water loosened an avalanche. Forty persons were drowned. The railway was destroyedffor many miles.
 SAN BERNARDO, Cal, Aug. 1S--An- other heavy storm occurred in the noun tains east of here yesterday, the swollen streams washing out the Redlands motor road in several places. It is now an &C., cepted fact that these continued storms and the sultry weather which has lasted since July 1, with one short interval, have resulted from the flooding of the Colorado Desert. If this continues permanently, it will result in there being more water in the mountains for irrigation, but the sum- mer climate will be less pleasant.

 NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-A Port au-Prince special says terrible accident occurred there on last Friday. Recent storms have swollen the mountain streams. AS 8 con- sequence the River St. Marie overfowed it's banks. For some time the stone bridge over the St. Marie resisted the sweep of the torrent. At length, however, the foundations were undermined and the whole structure tumbled into the river. A number of natives were assembled on the bridge when the accident happened. Some were crossing from one part of the town to the other, while the remainder were looking anxiously on at the rising water. The bridge went down before the people were aware of their danger. A great many were thrown into the river. The more fortunate ones managed to | reach the bank after hard struggle All of the others-eighty in number-were | swept along and their bodies were carried out to sea.
 | It is believed that large proportion of
 those missing were so injured by the fall ing stonework that they were unable to
 make much, if any effort, to save their l lives.

Alleged Valuable Discoveries of Ore
 At the Head of Paradise Canon.
 OGDEN, Utah, Aug. 1S.-This whole re- zion is excited over reported extensive mineral discoveries about twenty miles northeast of here at the head of Paradise Canon. Ore in one gulch, which is found in enormous quantities, is almost pure lead, with a paying quantity of silver. Two miles away are ore bodies assaying up into the hundreds. A sheep-herder was the first discoverer, and yesterday he was offered $40,000 for one-fourth interest in his claim by wealthy mining corporation in Salt Lake.
 A stream of prospectors and miners from all parts of the territory passed through here yesterday. A larger body from Salt Lake is expected tomorrow. The hills are covered with miners, and the town of La Plata is already laid out. E1- perts who came down tonight report that the camp will be a second Leadville.

JUST THOUGHTS.
No structure of just DEEDS Possible With
out Them.

No Structure Of just Deeds Possible With.
out Them.
Justice is usually thought to apply to
conduct, especially that which is shown
in the relations between man and man.
To be just in this sense is to give every
one his due, to discharge the obligations
which fall upon us, to preserve strict
integrity in all our dealings, and to be
not only honest, but honorable in every
transaction. But, while just conduct
rightly occupies prominent place in
all moral and ethical life, and while we
cannot too strongly emphasize its les
sons of duty, there is another depart
ment Of justice which receives less at
tention than it deserves. c., just
thoughts. There is a popular fallacy
that, while we can help what we do or
omit doing, we cannot help what we
think. Yet thought lies at the founda-
ton of action, and no structure of just
deeds can ever be safely built unless
the substratum of just thought be
sound and firm. 1t Is both rare and a
difficult thing to think justly; it is, in
deed, largely an intellectual virtue, to
be attained even in measure only by
careful culture and persistent effort,
and in its perfection never by imperfect
beings. Nevertheless, every one who
desires it and endeavors to develop it
within himself can succeed to agreat
degree; and the habit of thinking just
ly, like every other habit, increases
with every exercise. Perhaps nothing
SO greatly tends to just thinking as the
practice of suspendipg the Judgment
until we have full means of testing it.
This is often an irksome task. A state
of uncertainty or suspense is so disa-
greeable to many persons that, to
avoid it, they will hastily make up
their minds on mooted points, imagining
that thus they have forever settled the
matter. Opinions thus formed have no
value and can carry no weight. Yet,
having once pronounced them, people
feel bound to uphold and stand by them,
and they are very unwilling to hear
them questioned or opposed. Much of
the useless controversy which wastes
the time and exhausts the energies of
thousands. without eliciting any truth,
springs from no other source than this.
The fact is that, upon vast number Of
subjects, suspense Of Judgment is the
only mental condition which is at all
likely to lead to truth. A more modest
and correct estimate of our own powers
would of itself suggest this course.
Surely, unless we are well informed on
the subject and fully able to analvze

MENTAL WEAKNESS.
The Poisonous Eject Of Overwork ON
Brain.


The Poisonous Effect Of Overwork ON the
Brain.
Brain WEAKNESS is analogous to wear
mess of the muscles. After exercise q
muscle becomes very tired. If some
other form of exercise is substituted the
tired muscle will soon be rested again.
AS to the cause of fatigue, interesting
experiments were made some years ago
by an Italian chemist by taking little
blood from some exhausted soldiers
and injecting it into the veins of dog.
It had the immediate effect of making
the dog tired. He made further exper-
iments by causing dogs to run and in
jecting some of their blood into the
veins of other dogs with the same re-
suit, and by actual analysis it has been
demonstrated that when q muscle is
tired it is poisoned. These poisons are
the result of bodily activities, mental or
physical, and in effect they are paralyz-
ing, which gives the sense of WEAKNESS
which is experienced; so in mental
WEAKNESS the brain is poisoned by the
products of its own work. 1t is like an
engine, choked with its own ashes and
debris Brain WEAKNESS can often be
relieved by a change of work which vii!
bring into activity another portion OF
the brain. This will draw the blood
away from the parts of the brain pre-
viously used and thus give it the chance
to recuperate. Some business men have
q practice of solving hard problems in
mathematics as q means of rest = DR.

TnE WlNTER TURTLE.



from the West indies.
It is difficult to get turtles to market
at this time of the year. They are
Matched in the sand on hot sea beach
ON the coast of Florida or the West
India Islands, and the greatest care has
to be taken to keep them alive in bring
ing them to this cold climate. In sum-
mer they are carried on the decks of
tramp ships, but in winter they are
tucked away in the engine room or in
hunks as near the fire as possible.
When they are brought to the market
in winter they are not kept in tanks
filed with water in the wholesale fish
market, as they are in summer. They
would not live half q day in the water.
Turtle dealers have room where the
animals are kept in stock. 1t is in the
second story, and is reached by means
Of steep ladder. which suggests .
query how q 100-pound turtle could be
got up or down in q mans arms, The
room is kept closed. In the middle of
the room is q big coal stove that is kept
hot day and night Around the stove,
on old chairs and boxes of various
sizes, turtles lie on their backs with
their fippers tied. Very tender-hcarted
dealers put under the turtles heads
pillows made of bags stuffed with saw
dust or excelsior. The turtles are not
put ON the floor, because the cold strik-
ing up through the ceiling of the mar
ket below wculd kill them. They
never take food or water after they
