WHO PRIZES HAPPINESS
A Correct Report of a Conversation
Between Some Prominent Men
In a New York Club.

What is to become of the American
people?''
1t was not a politician, but a clear
minded, l~evel-headed bank president who
made this remark yesterday at one of the
leading clubs of New York. The subject
of discussion had been the enormou
number of sudden deaths from heart dis
ease, and a number of prominent gentle
men were discussing it. Among the
company was a doctor, a railroad super
~intendent, and a minister of the Gospel.

man or woman shudder. Joseph c. Will

CULTIVATE EXPRESSION.
Women of the World Learn Never to
Carry a TeII-Tale Face.

Expression is undoubtedly charming.
and an immobile c-ountenance not to be
desired, yet it is an open question wheth-
er one may be permitted in society to go
about wearing a tell-tale face.
One should acquire the art of sup
pressing, If not of concealing, ones
thoughts when they are disagreeahle, or
when they reflect unp~leasantly on the
company surrounding one. No to express
all one feels, either by look or speech, is
a necessary accomplishment among polite
people, and the person of training and
culture learns to hold much in reserve, to
refrain from calculations of surprise or
dismay, in short, neither to wear the
heart upon the sleeve, nor to carry about
a ~tell-tale face.
Among the lower orders there is much
less s~elf-control of eye and lip than among
those who have learned that a cardinal
point in good manners is respect for the
rights and feelings of others, says 'HaF-
per's Bazaar" One hears the resident OF
the tenement volubly screaming her COM
ments on the ~neighbons, seolding her chill
dren in shrill tones with furious gestures
and excited and glowing face. Her sis
ter in a higher circle, perhaps equally emo
tional by nature. restrains herself and
holds passion in leash. The repressed
manner Is decorous rather than vehement,
leans toward the calm of the statue
rather han to the raying of the tragic
actress. is never too pronounced. is tram
quill, gentle. restful and always self
controlled.
Young girls in the acuteness of their
feelings are apt to express more than is
wise by the curl of scornful lips or by
swift and exaggerated speech. They say
analysed, and they sometimes regret Bit
terly, when too late, the impulsiveness of
their censure or of their praise. For the
word once gone from US is beyond recall,
and like the pebble thrown into the
stream may go on With its widening rip
Piles to all eternity.
The too easily moved face grows old
much more rapidly thar the one which
has habitually less play of the muscles.
One does not find a smooth, unlined fore
head in the woman of 40 If from ii she
has been knotting, ~wrinkling and pucker-
an habitual frown, furrowing perpendic,
ular lines between her eyes and drawing
deep marks. around her uper lip, and in
the place which should be invisibly la
beled, for dimples only" Not too much
expression, please, If you wish to remain
youthful in look and engaging in fresh
ness.
t must be added in fairness, however,
that many FACIAL movements are inher-
tied, peculiar fittings of the eyebrows and
doWn-droppings of the lips being eharac-
teristlc of certain families, and a face
does not always lose by the lines of ma
turity. Only let the pleasant things do
our worst. but those which speak for our
best moods.

QUEER Scot OF WOMEN.
Sanctified Sisters Live Like Monks
and Believe in Dreams.


Located in h thriving town of Bolton,
Tex, in the central part of that State,
IS a curious colony of religionists, known
as "Sanetiied Sisters or "Sanetihcation-
lists.
The hoctrine professed by the women
is of a very simple character, and en-
bodies three essential pr~inciples-a life
of eelibacy, a common property interest
and an isolated existence.
The original leader of the Santiieation-
lists, and their present head, Mrs. Martha
McWhirter, is a woman of indomitable
will. She was the mother of twelve chill
dren when she first conceived the idea of
this new belief. Her husband naturally
opposed her extraordinary views, and en-
deavored to prevent her from assisting in
spreading them. But his objections were
in vain.
Nineteen years ago the society assumed
tangible form, and since that period a
steady growth, financially and otherwise
has been made.
Stern devotion to principle, heroic forth
tude and self-sacrifice have been and are
the controlling influences.
In the early days of the society the wo-
men determined to raise money in order
each employed a method of her own for
accomplishing this result.
n woman, who had previously lived
the forest, I'M with the aid of another sis
ter cut the timber and hauled the fuel
to market. Others accepted positions as
domestics in households in adjoining
towns, their earnings being pooled for
mutual benefit. Others sold country pro-
duce, n a few took in laundry work to
add a mite to the assets.
They dress plainly, n at one time
wore bonnets similar to those worn by or
thodox Quaker women. A little more lat
itude in the matter of dress has been al
lowed recently and modern hats nave
been received with favor.
The community consists of thirty-two
members, all of whom live at the Central
Hotel, in Observation-Disclosures Inquirer.

HOLDING Fl BREATH.

1t is a physical impossibility for a man
to kill himself by holding his breath.
Individuals differ greatly in the length
of time they can hold their breath, and
what practice and determined effort,
combined with natural great lung capa-
city, can do in this direction is shown
by the long periods for which champion
divers can remain under water.
