IL is hardly much to say that n.
most everybody has q strong predilec-
ton for some particular word or
phrase, and shows preference for tho
same by using It whenever it can be
slipped in with due regard to the
context.
One gentleman OF the writer'a ac-
quaintance meets all troubles-big,
little and iniaginnry-with Holy
Mosesl' and il he has occasion at any
time to call attention to q slight dis
crepancy in q statement to any per-
he will tell you that at is not ac-
cordins to Crocker." Another inter-
lards his conversation pretty freely
with "As they say" although many
|.ot the statements thus credited to
others are entirely his own.
Others, again, are constantly telling
you, when imparting any information,
that "You know" and probably new
r. think that II you are already aware
Of tho TACT it Is not necessary to re-
peat It. But they know you don't
know-it is only Q special way they
have OF talking. Another may keep
putting the question, Don't you seer"
although he knows perfectly we'll that
you are not blind, while the nsxt friend
you meet accepts every statement you
make with "Is that sof" just as II he
doubted your word of honor as q
gentleman. Then in another quarter
you will be brought up sharply, and
perhaps too frequently to please you,
with Certainly" while that friend
with the smiling countenance will keep
on edifying you with Dear mel"
"In some parts OF the country mo,
no." or eyes, indeed, appear to PAL
take somewhat OF the nature Of an
oath, for everybody makes use OF
them "as q guarantee OF good faith"
Then your young lady will probab-
w be partial to "really" as q stock
expression, and it has the advantage
of serving the purpose OF a query as
well as of an affirmation. These
young ladies also adopt many slangy
phrases, but this is undoubtedly due
in great measure to the bad example
set by their brothers andaweethearts.
Young gentleman, too, arc dead on
stock expressions, and some OF them
would not look we'll in print. When
anything startling or unexpected
happens, when q chum tolls q
"whopper," or when tho master turns
up when he ought not to. tho phrase
is ready, and does duty many times .
day. It may be "Oh. Jeheshaphatl"
"By golly," "By jingo," or something
stronger which ought not to be used.
but all the same it turns out and
settles the matter.
These pet words and phrases be-
come such part OF the conservation
of many people thatwhsn talking to
our acquaintance we feel pretty GER
tain that they will turn their darling
out and we can almost calculate to q
nicely when it will housed. OF course,
it might be conceded that very many
OF the expressions are OF slangy
nature, and this may account, in
some cases, for their popularity. 1t
is really surprising what hold these
words get upon us, and how often we
use them without thought; in fact,
we are quite astonished when our at
tention is drawn to our shortcomings
in this respect.

Washed.
We were camped at the Hot Springs
on the 10 10 trail. made famous in
Indian annals by the escape OF Chief
Joseph and his band OF Nez Perces.
just above US was large camp Of
Flatheads who were making their fall
hunt One morning we were awak
ened by shouts and cries Evidently
there was great excitement some-
where, and we promptly jumped up
1t was just after daylight and cold
clouds OF steam were rising from the
big basin-shaped pools at the foot OF
the granite wall from which poured a
thick stream OF boiling water. The
pool was so large that ut the lower
edge the water was almost cold the
nearer you approached to the place
where the hot water burst from the
rock the better chance you stood OF
getting boiled.
At the edge. at point where the
water was OF comfortable tempera-
ture. stood two Indians one on the
bank and the other on stone in the
water. Near by were dozen other
Indians guarding number OF little
Indian boys and girls who had nothing
on, and were bowling and crying.
When we looked out OF tho tent the
two Indians at the pool had an Indian
boy--one holding him by the feet the
other by the hands-and were gravely
swinging him backward aud forward
through the warm water. while he
yelled at every dip. AS soon us they
had finished with him he was set upon
the bank. and ran to the willow brush
near by.
Then the noise redoubled. for each
child in the group guarded by the In
dams feared that it was his turn.
They all tried to escape to the brush,
but their elders pursued and caught
them. until the very last one had been

WHAT NOT TO LooE.

Don't lose courage; spirit brave
Garry with you to the grave.
Don't lose time in vain distresa;
Work, not worry, brings success.
Done lose hope; who lets her stray
Goes forlornly all the way.
Don't lose patience, come what will,
Patience oftimes outruns skill
Don't lose gladness; every hour
Blooms for you some happy flower.
Though be foiled your dearest plan,
Don't lose faith in God and man.

Tho Value Of Theosophy.

The value of Theosophy intellectu
ally is that it makes clear many
obscure problems of life and mind;
that 1t offers an account Of tho eyo-
luton of the universe and Of man
which renders our present conditions
ineligible and affords basis for
further development; that it proves
the existence OF mental powers at
present latent In the majority; that it
removes the maddening pessimism
which is taking tho heart out oflife.
It's value morally is that it explains
the presence OF evil, points the way OF
escape, dem onstrates the unity OF hui
mainly, and places the brotherhood
OF man on a rational and intelligible
basis; that, by it's doctrine OF reincar-
nation, it makes every man response
BILE for his own characteristics, and by
its doctrine OF karma--the law OF
cause and effect-it places the destiny
OF each in his own hands, showing
that every effort towards right
thinking and right doing now helps to
build up noblsr character for the
next incarnation, the inmate"
character with which the child IL born
into the world. This is the fuse Of
these successive incarnations" wantA
by an objector.l
The value OF Theosophy socially lies
in these ethical teachings Of brother
hood and personal responsibility, and
in the compelling motives 1t affords
for individual efforts to improve. 1t
makes the good citizens, without
which the good State can neither be
made nor maint aimed; and, further
it goes to the roots OF our social
miseries, and shows how they may be
removed. Il 10 more concerned with
the cause OF the evils than with tho
evils themselves, although, as the
practical side Of the Teaching Of
brotherhood, it urges its followers to
immediate efforts to alleviate social
distresses.
BY its recognition OF religious differ.
ences as superficial while, the religious
emotion il ono and fundamental,
it softens the bitterness ofcontroversy
and draws good men OF different faiths
together, while, by the stressi it lays on
conduct as apart from creed, It gives
O. platform on which earnest and de-
voted men may stand side by side for
mutual aid against the attacks OF vice,
hatred, and the spirit OF separateness.
BY it's philosophy and it's ethics
Theosophy claims to be judged, and in
the long run it is by these that it will
be justified or condemned in the eyes
OF men. ANNIE bEAsANT.
