The Secret of Keepinq Young.

To keep young through advancing years
is by no means an easy task, and it might
without wide departure from the fact be
called the art of modern times. Men have
dreamed of it in all ages, and the search
for the fountain of youth immortal has
been as Keen as that for the philosophers
stone, which should transmute all things
to gold. 1t is only in these latter days that
it is coming to be recognized that the whole
secret lies in the attitude of the mind
toward life; that it is not upon outward
resources that one is to depend, but tina.
the fountain of immortal youth is within
one or nowhere.
Mankind is coming to realize at last that
to keep young It is in the first place neces-
sary to be young, and that the many per-
sons who are born, so to say, in their Sec
ond or third childhoods cannot remain
young because they have never been young
at all. 1t is realizing also that to retain
the youth when one possesses it it is need
full that one have extraordinary fexibility
Joined to great persistence. The conditions
Of life alter with advancing years, and it
is important that the attitude of the indi-
vidual toward life remains constantly that
of youth.
1t is not easy to put into words exactly
what is meant here, because the thing is
so subtle that it is well nigh impossible
for one to define it even to himself, and yet
those who are capable Of achieving this
result are able to comprehend what is
meant 1t is by no means frivolousness
since youth may be youth without being
frivolous, and in those advanced In years
frivollty is not youthful so much as it is
repulsive. The incongruity which it brings
out between the years of the actor and the
role which he is playing destroys the illu-
sion.-Boston Courier

A $50 postage stamp-who ever heard Of
such thingl A natural ejaculation for
ninety-nine men out of hundred to make if
you talked Of stamp SO valuable, and yet
there are such stamps in daily use. There
are S4S stamps, too; $50, S24, $12, 50, SO, SO,
s1.ge, 98 cents, 81 cents and so on down to
and including cent, all Of a peculiar kind,
which not one man in thousand, unless
he be postal employee, ever heard of or
ever saw.
These stamps arefor the payment Of post
age on newspapers and periodicals. There
was time when stamps were placed direct
upon the periodicals Now Uncle Sam does
all the stamping himself. He has all the
fun Of licking the stamps, pasting them
on and then spelling their handsome faces
with ugly black cancellation marks.
The stamps used for paying this postage
are about three-quarters of an inch in
width by an inch and a quarter in
length. From cent up to 12 cents they are
slate color; from "a cents to 50 cents red
while the higher priced ones are red, blue,
yellow and green
The stamp bears upon it the words
newspapers" along one side and "periodi-
calls" on the other, the denomination mark
being in the corner. The postage is paid
on the papers by check or cash, all large
papers keeping sum on deposit ahead
each week. The postage for the day is
figured up according to the weight of the
package, and the stamps, 70 the extent of
the postage, are then selected. These are
affixed in a row to sheet in large book
and Cancelled.
Once every quarter these Cancelled stamp
slips are sent on to Washington, where
they are kept for record None Of these
stamps are ever sold.- Minneapolis Jour

ito take photograph of your ghost"
"I'll make note of it," said the Poet.
"Do you believe in spirit photography"
"In the interests of morality" said the
Journalist, i've ought not to discuss such
subject. 1t has peculiar attractions for
the picturesquely inaccurate, not to say
the average fraud"
Precisely So" the Eminent Person said
weightily. "Spiritualism always ends in
exposure"
Photography generally begins with it,"
said the Mere Boy, less weightily.
Besides" the Eminent Person contin-
ued, "if ghost is material enough for the
purposes OF photography it ought to be
material enough for many other things"
$50 it is, said the Mere Boy. "It may
be material enough for an entire Christ
mas number"
"You know what mean. II you can
photograph ghost, why can't you catch
and tame 1t and teach it to do trickss"
"Well," the journalist said, "there is
an added sadness to death, If the camera
is to pursue us even into the hereafter."-

Possibly the most remarkably instance
Of foreign travel in plant is in connection
with the Swedish clover. When LinnBus
first saw it in Sweden it was comparative
ly scarce, and be supposed it to be hybrid
between the red and the white clover and
named it Trifolium hybridum. He could
not have been believer in modern prop
osition that hybrids are sterile, though
there are few sterile instances as this
clover is abundantly productive, whether
receiving the attention of bees or not. In
America it was barely known ten or fifteen
years ago AT that time some sharp eyed
and nimble legged botanists were over
joyed at seeing plant here and there
about Montreal.
Now the traveller, with his eyes out Of
the car window, may see it in abundance
everywhere. On Mount Desert island it is
nearly as common as the white or red
clover. Its mottled white and red flowers,
and particularly sweet odor, make it a
favorite wild flower bunch for the ladies.

In one respect at least--and this is said
with no thought of decrying American
womanhood on general principles-Pari-
sian women are far In advance Of us. They
esteem ornament for its beauty and be-
comingness rather than for its pecuniary
value. This must arise from the fact that
their perceptions have been rendered more
accurate by being developed amid the re-
suits Of ages Of artistic culture, whereas
we as people are artlstioally crude. 1t is
more honest to admit this truth, especially
as, like love and cough it cannot be con-
cealed. Besides we have a preponderance
of advantages in other respects, and seeing
that we are crude is long way toward
remedying It, '-r7--~

about to country houses In the guise OF IA
guest to amuse her companions on rainy
afternoons. The idea is good one, but
by no means new, and the fact that the
just mentioned young woman is the first
person known publicly to follow the call

prove her to be specially original, for tho

real story teller did get her notion from
Mr.. Hardy, it is nothing against her, and
1t is to be hoped that she will be success
full enough to make the spinning of yarns
recognized calling, provided the public
will refuse to accept any except first class
entertainment. We all like to read stories
of adventure and supernatural incident,
and we even like to hear tales that we
have already read rccited by an elocution-

natural infections of tenderness, pathos,

talk very cleverly and tell joke or story

are utterly at loss and cannot set down

uals the corps of professional story tellers
should be recruited, for there is no reason
why spoken narratives should have no
market value while written ones have q
recognized price. A ready tongue is one
of the most desirable gifts that nature can
bestow but heretofore it has been of little
practical value unless the possessor became

Curry in India.

In India curry is produced at first hand.
Different provinces vary the ingredients
and the proportions. If brought together
the ladies of Madras and the ladies Of Cal
cutta would probably compare receipts,
each of course with her own preferences,
as do ladies from Philadelphia and Ba!ti-
more on the stewing Of terrapin, and the
ladies from New Orleans and Charleston

coriander seeds predominate, in another
turmeric encroaches. Doubtless there are
