Infected Hotels.

A well known physician rt Ce lty published
account of the experience of p lient at a
SO called health resort. Here is 4 plrt Of the
story:
"The patient in question was suffe ing only
from overwork; his family history was clear,
and there was no tuberculosis to be traced in
his immediate kin or among his ancestors.
He went to a health resort at a high altitude
to recnperate. He boarded at a hotel in which
numerous consumptives were coughing and
expectorating; four months afterwards he de
veloped tuberculosis and now has a typical
case of pulmonary phythisis. The unfor-
tunate condition of these resorts is that there
is, as a rule, no system of disinfection in the
rooms, verandas, Railways, etc.
''The patients are allowed in most hotels
to expectorate where they choose, without
restriction. The result is that germs are
scattered broadcast in the buildings and out.
side of the grounds. They become dry and
are scattered in the air and inhaled by those
exposed. Thus health resort which in the
beginning may have been very effective in
combating consumption becomes after a
time a verltable center of infection.

Opportunities.

At dinner given IN town not long
since, the talk about the table drifted
into a discussion of certain books on
metaphysics which within few years
had made deep impression on many
minds. Some one was speaking OF the
quality of the authors work, Of its Pc
cu]iar value as preparation for an IT,
dersianding of subtler subjects which
subsequent writers along his lines had
expounded. The beautiful woman who
sat near the host looked up and said,
"You do not mean you find anything
of value in that man? his tone is so If
ritating to me, can't understand any
body's liking him -
This ended the discussion of the man
for the talk, as it always must among
people careful not to destroy by dispute
the charms of dinner when it runs
upon a snag Of disagreement-swept
easily about into another and a differ
ent channel. The next day, however,
the beautiful woman called upon the
interrupted speaker. 81 have lain
awake half the night, she said, 'think-
ing Of what did. 1t was so stupid i'll
ME to speak in that way. l contrib
uted nothing to the discussion, and |
shut away from myself an opportunity
to wider my knowledge in new direc-
tion."
This shutting away Of opportunities
from ourselves is sin of which the
majority Of us are guilty, though few Of
us-like thelady at dinner-are so wide
awake spiritually as to perceive our
fault.

A large part of life's burdens are self-im-
posed and wholly needless. Fears of calami
ties which never happen, doleful habit OF
looking at the worst, a suspicious disposition,
Jealous turn of mind, these are the tyrants
that load up with burdens heavy to carry. II
we should honestly examine the various bur
dens of our lives we should be surprised to
find how many of them are of this character.
Not only may we drop them if we will, but
Justice to others demands that We should.
There are enough crosses and trials in life
which must be borne, without manufacturing
artificial and needless ones.

Take the Sunny Side.

Let's oftaner talk of the noble deeds,
Ard rarer of the bad ones,
And sing about our happy days,
And not about the sad ones,
We are not made to fret and sigh
Aud when grief sleeps to wake it
Bright happiness is standing by,
This life is what we make it.
Let's find thu sunny side of men
Or be believers in il;
A light there is in every soul
That takes the paius to win it.
Oh. there is slumbering good in all
And we perchance may wake it;
Our hands contain the magic wand;
This life is what We make it.
Then here's to those whose loving hearts
Shed light and joy about them!
Thanks be to them for countless gems
We ne'er had known without them.
Oh. this should be happy world
To all who may partake it.;
The faults our own if it is not
This life is what We make it.

NO COMPLAINT HERE.

| It is telegraphed from London that
| many Americans of social ambition are
much incensed because their names have
! been omitted from the recently published
book of the crests of Great Britain and
Ireland. It is suggested as possible ex-
planation of the omission that the fees for
registration at the Heralds' college were
not properly attended to.
We do not believe that any complaint of
this kind has gone from New Haven. This
community is free and independent and
has no need to ask any favors from the
Herslds' college or to pay any fees there
to. Anybody in New Haven who wants
crest can have one, and We'll bet

be the thing those worn in New
Haven will be as appropriate as those
worn anywhere. There are many noble
families in New Haven whose members
are engaged in useful and honorable occu-
pations. More useful than fighting the
battles of kings or psndering to the vices
take pride in doing good, substantial work.
They can use as oresss any Of the tools of
the building trades. or even q brick-to be
worn outside, not inside the hat. We
have honest and enterprising merchants
here. If they want crests they can select
some emblem of the businesses they are
proud of and successful in. We have
some learned college professors here, who
can choose signs of the arts and sciences
they teseh. We have workers in iron, in
brass and In wood, who can pick from
their works something su,tabls for crests.
We have faithful domestic servants, who
do not need orests to give them distinction
and authority, but who are entitled to them
if they want them. We have bakers and
butchers, jewellers aud tailors, and repre-
sentatives of many other honorable and
useful trades. All can have crests if they
want them, without bothering to have
them registered in ths Heralds' college, or
even in the Office of the town clerk
It is a fine thing to be plain American
Citizen and to have gumptton enough to

A CLOTHES LINE LYRIC.
Ii is not often that the passer-ty GEES in
"ths family wash" anything but evidences
of hard labor and the wear and tear, the
makings and mendings of daily life. The
irregularly draped clothes lines are at best
an unpicturesque adjunct to the landscape,
and the vsri-colored garments, whether
hanging limp and damp. or futtering and
swapping in the wind, are among tho most
prosaic and uninspiring of material things.
They have been known to exert depress-
ing influences literal wet-blsnkst
dampening-upon the spirits of weary
housewives, whether the wash is their own
or their neighbor's, for like all other
varieties of housework they refuse, when
done, to stay done, but proceed with the
greatest alaority to place themselvesin in such
a condition that they must be done all over
again and 1t Is this thought that discoursges
and disheartsns. The household gods ex-
act from their votaries an unending per-
formance of the same rites, ceremonies,
and sacrifices, possibly to teach the great
lesson that in human life there IL no such
thing as stability or permanence.
That is the way it looks-the clothes
line-to common and prosy people. The
clothes frame with It's ironed garments,
neatly folded, smooth and glossy, is a more
inviting spectacle, but it takes an inspired
poet to ideslizs the dripping, tapping fam.
lily wash upon the clothes limo. Here IL

and hangs upon it such quantity swee'
