Peace of Mind.

The one most precious and priceless
possession on earth is peace of mind. 1t
is the mental capital out of which all
worthy work springs. 1t is the first and
the one indispensable condition of any
achievement worth the name And
when one comes to think of it his peace
of mind is seldom invaded by others,
but instead by his own moods, his own
trains of reflection. Life should be
radiant, abounding, serene, with the
positive serenity of high purpose and
noble exhilaration, not the mere passive
repose or even inertia that is sometimes
mistaken for serenity. Serenity is the
state OF abounding purpose, of generous
enthusiasm, of the continual outgoing,
not at all of passivity or of brooding
over ones real or imaginary trials -

Some Tested Points In Dict.

Formerly a fever patient was forbid
den to take milk, while in modern prac-
tice it is about the only food allowed.
and a we'll nigh exclusive diet of that
liquid is said to be very efficacious in
diabetes. AT the German spas, Carlsbad,
Wiesbaden, etc, a very little bread is
allowed, the diet being mostly madc up
OF milk, eggs, grapes and lean beef A
nonstarch diet is the rule, bread, starchy
vegetables and cereals being almost ex-
cluded. Rice is easily digested and an
excellent food, except that it abounds
In earth salts. Fruits are not only di-
gested i'll the first stomach, but they
have a large part Of the nourishment
already i'll a condition to be absorbed
and assimilated as soon as eaten. The
food elements i'll bread and cereals have
to undergo a process Of digestion in the
stomach and then be passed on to the
intestines for still further chemical
change before being of use to the hu-
man system, showing the advantage of
a diet of lean meats and fruits. NORTH

Sne,..l. - ..,!.

Tie chief cL;.ra, ;er,stic of Shetland
hosiery is the cXtrcr,c fineness of the
wool used. This WOOL is obtained from
the native Shetland sheep, an animal of
decidedly meager appearance, and
which southern flock master would be
inclined to 'have none of. +" Neverthe-
less this humLle beast, picking up a
scanty living Oh the bleak hillsides
where it, larger relatives woCld starve,
produces wool of remarkable fineness,
and when it is mentioned that the nat
ural cOlors vary from black ard white
to an endless variety Of grays, browns,
tawns and chestnuts Of many shades
locally called "moorit') it will be seen
that the Shetland people have ready to
their hand raw material of the most
suitable kind for their purpose
In connection with the fineness of the
wool the method Of taking it from the
sheep is worthy of note. 1t is not clip
ped Or shorn i'll the usual way, but at
the proper season is literally plucked
from the backs of the animals, it being
averred that shearing tends to deterio-
rate the quality Of every succeeding
fleece, and of course to keep the yield
of wool as fine as possible is great de-
sideratuln. The plucking referred to
usually appears to strangers to be a
cruel eNpedient, but in reality the sheep
seem to suffer no more from it than
from ordinary shearing - Chambers

When q brother in the church wants
to marry sister, he does not make his
wish known directly to her, but goes to
the minister and tells him his secret.
The minister, if pleased with the match,
carries the lovers message. The sister
is usually surprised, as this is supposed
to be her first intimation of the young
mans love. If the proposal is received
with favor, the negotiations: are carried
on by the minister The ceremony al

always served, after which bride and
groom go to their respective homes and
remain apart for several days. The

happy ones, and there is no record OF

Mr. Willink's house that there was "a
fire in his Office" Mr.. Willink rushed
down in a great hurry. Before he had
time to recover his breath on reaching the
exchange, Supt. Dreeson of the scavenger
department handed him a neat little case.
which was found to inclose a handsome
Masonic watch charm. The gift was ac-
companied by letter, which read as fol-
lows:

you herewith this Masonic charm as a tes-
timonial of the appreciation of the many
kindnesses extended to us through the

there is due you a more substantial re-
cogniton than mere thanks" In pre-
senting this token we do so with the hope
that the bond OF esteem and friendship
that we have for you will grow with the
new years coming on. Wishing you a
merry Christmas, we beg to remain"
This was signed by. Messrs Leander But

visiby touched by this evidence of esteem
on the part of his friends and subordi-
mates, and expressed his APP
probation in a very feeling manner. AS

Masonic fraternity the gift is a very APP
propriate one.
