Glad TO Have Nerve.

Thank heaven for nerve!
How often we hear men and women
pitied because OF their oversensitveuess,
and thoughtlessly we join the chorus. Why,
bless your heart, If you are supersensitive
to sights and snubS and SneerS and averted
looks and TO pain and to disappointment
what's the matter with the counterbal-
ance?
Your representative nerve is just as quick
to appreciate the delicacics, the refine
mentS, the nicetieS al mental, moral afd
physical excellence, says writer in the
New York Recorder. Are you supersensl-
tive TO censure? How much the more do
you enjoy compliment and praise. Has
something occurred TO unnecessarily mar
the happiness of the moment, to which your
supersenSitive nature yields with tears? Are
you not all the reader and the quicker, De-
cause OF that precise condition, OF that eX-

sensitive. Instead OF that we should cor
gratulate them because of an organiZa-
tion which is as quick 10 appreciate that
which is good and pleasant and desirable
as to recognize the contrary condition in
our social existence.
What could we 90 without nerve il the
other sense OF the term? tell you it takes
nerve 10 brace up against SuCu ODeldCf1S
as men and women encounter in this cur
iously constructed world. Are you dis
appointed? Nerve yourself 10 endure IT,.
Is your ambition Curbcd? Nerve yourself
to try again. Have you lost your grip in
any way upon yourself. and feel that N
an aimless condition you re floating

down with the ebb? Pluck courage for
another effort. Nerve Yourself TO shape
your course irrespective of the current Of
the tide. And right here is where indl-
viduality and personality come in. No
two of us are alike, thank heaven! You
who like and love and live with one style
of man would be very unhappy if circuT-
stances were to change your companion
ship. Some fancy tall, some short. some
fat some thin. Fancy is Il curious factor,
and he who undertakes to anaiyZe and dis

the year for all traGeSmen begins. From
this time on until the new year ali crafts
men are expected 10 work later at
night than during other Seasons OF the year,
aud as n rule their wages are increased
during this period. Besides these holidays
each union has It's own holidays-that is,
the days OF birth ana death of the supposed
Originator OF Its particular occupa ton.
To celebrate the national holidays the
employers always prepare feast for their
employees. But W hen UniCn observes its
own holidays its members contribute sof>Te
money and have a banquet in restaurant
or hotel.
An interesting popularity of these unions
should be mentioned here, and that is the
nlassing of the same industries in the same
street. In China he re is no very large manu-
factory, most o fthememploying aboutthrty
or fifty men each and all the manufactures
producing the same commodity are located

the commodity manufactured there, Instead

GOLF CAPS.
And that is the difference between a
yachting cap and the golf cap. The golfer
must show something new every day.
Golf hats this year are rather large,
large enough Ia protect the eyes. The

INTERESTING RELIC USED BY A

An interesting relic in the Charlestown
Navy Yard museum is an umbrella which

This is all that is told by the card attached

the British vessels.
1t is exactly Ike an umbrella frame in
general shape, but the stick - about ten
feet long, with a heavy iron ring at each
end, and is about three inches IN diameter.
On the sth OF July, 1912, the Constitution
