SELF SACRIFICE.
without sustihNbfc Motive II Becomes
Sentimental vaeary.

sentimental thEory.
Young Lanyan, the naidshipinan, who
went Down with Admiral Tryon on the
Victoria, was sentimental lad. "You
had better jump, cried the admiral to
the boy.
I'D rather stay with you," was the
midshipmans reply.
The boys loyalty to the admiral was
pathetic, but it was barren display of
affection. The admiral was right. The
lad ought 10 have jumped and made a
resolute effort to save his life. The ad-
miral had weighty reasons for preferring
to stay at his post. The fnidshipman's
life was flung away from sheer excess Of
sentiment.
Equally wasteful and unjustifable was
the zeal of New Jersey workman, who
listened to lady's frantic appeal for the
rescue of her dog. which was founder
ing in pond. She fancied that her pet
was in extreme danger. The workman
plunged into the water and swan out to
the dog. There he was suddenly attacked
with cramp and was drowned before tho
lady's eyes. The dog swan ashore and
barked from the bank at the rescuer,
whose intentions had been misunder-
stood. 1t was more than foolish for q
man to risk his life for hysterical lady's
pet dog.
Another workman in Brooklyn played
a better part A cry of "Horse run
awayw was raised while he was chatting
with friend. A frightened horse was
tearing up the street with a wagon be-
hind him, but no driver. Directly in
his track was baby carriage with a
sleeping child. The nurse, who had been
wheeling the carriage across the street,
had been frightened by the outcries of
bystanders, and deserving her charge
had fled to the sidewalk.
The workman did not hesitate. Spring
ing forward, he caught the animal by
the bride and stopped the horse barely
in time to save the child's life. The
horse, revolving against capture, reared
and made plunge for liberty. The bri-
die broke in the workman's hands, and
he fell under the horses feet. In mo-
ment he was trampled to death. .
This workman had wife and children
dependent upon him. He undertook q
most hazardous feat in attempting to
stop the horse by the bride ends in front
of the baby carriage. But although he
lost his life snd brought calamity upon
his household he exhibited singular un-
selfshness and fortitude. The sight of
the sleeping child exposed to a horrible
death set his warm heart beating, and
generously and impulsively he did the
only thing that could have been done for
the child's rescue.
That was better than useless sacrifice
of life for puppy. 1t was nobler than
voluntary suicide with the admiral, who
feared court marshal's probable brand
of ofmurderer more than he feared death.
Unless self sacrifice have adequate mo-
tive and justification for the risks, it be-
comes a sentimental vagary involving
senseless waste of life.-Youth's Com
panion.

False Eyelashes.

Not content with false teeth and false
hair and other falsenesses, the Partisan
ladies are now wearing false eyelashes.
Long, dropping eyelashes can be OBJ
tanned at quite a reasonable cost. They
are threaded on fine needle, which is
drawn through the skin of the eyelid in
loops, which are afterward cut. The
