Ian Maclaren, in an article in "The
British Weekly" on "Forgiving One
Another" makes this recommendation,
which can profitably be adopted by
those who stand upon their dignity and
refuse to forgive, and also by those
who feel that they have been treated
unjustly. mo amount of hatred or i'll
usage can injure anyone If only he pos
sesses his soul In patience; from this
discipline of suffering he may rather
win the virtues of meekness and char
ity. His one danger arises not from
his enemy, but from himself-that he
should dwell upon petty wrongs, and
grow garrulous about himself, and in
the end become peevish and irritable.
Prosecutors in history never injured
their victims by fire or sword; they
sadly succeeded when the blood of the
prosecuted turned into gall. He who
thinks kindly of his enemy gathers a
quick reward into his own bosom. How
soon will 1t all be over! How little
does any mans word matter! How
great Is the love of God!"

The Salt Habit,

The amount of salt required in the
system is comparatively small. and II
the diet has been rightly compounded,
very little is necessary. Some go so
far as to discard Its use altogether but
whether this is wise or not we will not
here consider. Excessive use Of salt
paralyzes the nerves Of taste, and in
addition there is direct tax on the
skin and kidneys in removing 1t from
the blood. 1t is now pretty we'll set
tied that an excessive use Of salt does
overtax the kidneys in Its removal,
and that the great number of cases of
arrangement and disease of these or.
gans is due to this cause.

Senator Lindsay's wish.

'If had plenty of money to do W! n
as wished" said Senator Lindsay cf
Kentucky to party of friends at the
Hotel Wellington the other morning,
"I'd have music played at all of my
meals and get cigars made at $50
hundred. Those are two luxuries
would most surely indulge myself in.
I'd have the music played by a small
orchestra, say a horn and two or three
violins and flute and bass viol, and
I'd have it play soft, harmonious airs
while ate, and now and then I'd have
some vocal music given by colored
voices. There's peculiar harmony in
negro's singing tone. I'd have 'em
sing such things as When the Water
melon Hangs Upon the Vine That's
a song calculated to inspire the moot
sluggish appetite. l remember hear
ing it once on Mississippi River boat.
A lot of us were aboard, and In the
party was Hooker of Mississippi. There
were some darkies aboard who played
instrumental music with banjos, gui-
tars, and a fiddle l asked 'em if they
ever sung, and and they said they did
sometimes. Well, they struck up
When the Watermelon Hangs Upon
the Vine Hooker had never heard It
before and it nearly set him crazy"

BUILDERS OF THE MONITOR.

Only One Survivor of Those Connected With
the Construction of the "Cheese Box"
Representative Sperry, of Connecti-
cut, lie probably the last survivor of
the gentlemen who were closely associ-
ated In the construction of the famous
Monitor that fought with the Merrimac
in Hampton Roads. The three build
ers of the Yankee cheese box" were
John Erricson, a Swede, known the
world over as the inventor; Cornelius
8. Bushnell, of New Haven, and John
A. Griswold, of Troy, N. Y, the last
two being interested with Mr.. Ericsson
as part owners. Mr.. Bushnell and Mr..
Sperry were close friends, and the lat
ter went on Mr.. Bushnell's bond for
5000, 900. 1t should be borne in mind
what is not generally known by stu
dents Of American history-that the
Monitor was owned by private parties,
and not by the Government when she
fought the historic battle. The three
gentlemen named were authorized by
the Government to build the MonitCr,
and IL she was able to do what was
promised, the Government would pur-
chase her. There was a great deal of
skepticism about the craft, but the
Government advanced some money for
her construction, and for that reason
the builders were required to give bond
for the return of the money If the boat
was a failure.
Mr.. Sperry remembers vividly the
day of the battle for the failure of the
Monitor meant more to him than dis
aster to the Federals. 1t would have
taken every dollar Of his property to
satisfy the Government bond.

Does Baby
hrive?

If your baby is delicate
and sickly and its food does
not nourish it, put fifteen
or twenty drops of SCOTS
Emulsion in its bottle three
or four times a day and you
will see a marked change.
We have had abundant
proof that they will thrive
on this emulsion when other
food fails to nourish them.
It is the same with larger
children that are delicate.
SCOTS Emulsion seems to be
the element lacking in their
food. Do not fail to try it if
your children do not thrive.
It is as useful for them in
summer as in winter.

Dense Spanish Ignorance.

Spanish ignorance of America ha
been much talked about both befor
and after the war began, but Amer
cans are still about as ignorant of tn
extent of that ignorance as the Span
iards were of America before Manilt
and Santiago taught them some mucl
needed lessons. 1t appears that man.
of SPANS eminent men were no
aware that America had q navy o.
that it had history of any account
Senior Ply Margall, a prominen'
Spanish politician, who publishes 6
paper of his own, recently said in al
article in that paper:
The country has been deceived
for heretofore the United States has
been represented to be merely ma
ton of merchants unfit for war, inca
pable of standing a long struggle
lacking navy and imbued only with
greed for gold. It was concealed
from us that this same nation had
fought two wars with Great Britain,
one with Mexico, and also the civil
war in 1861, which gave liberty to the
slaves. The power and strength Of
that nation have been hidden from
our people as we'll as our own weak
ness"
This is a fair statement of the gen
eral Spanish ignorance of America
Spanish knowledge of America is
confined to vague impressiocs of the
existence of a porcine notion some
where north of Cuba, a nation that is
greed without having the courage
that usually accompanies rapacity; a
nation that has neither the mind nor
the weapons for fighting.
1t would be more nearly correct,
perhaps, to use the past tense in some
of these statements. There is rea-
son to believe that a ray of light is
slowly beginning to percolate through
the dense curtain of Spanish igno-
rance. With great retrospective wis
dom, Spanish military men are now
saying that Spain had no reason to
believe that she could win on the sea.
After awhile, Spanish military men
will admit that Spain had no reason
to believe that she could win On land

Dewey Fighter, Even as Boy.

Before entering Annapolis, Dewey
went to the public school in the vii
lage, and also attended military
school at Norwich, where he formed {
determination to enter the navy
Dewey's father did not think much Of
sailors and told his son 80, but this
made NO difference to George, He
kept at his father until he procured
him his appointment to Annapolis
While pupil in the district school at
Montpelier young Dewey received a
severe thrashing, which he probably
remembers to this day. The fogging
was administered by Major Pangborn
the schoolmaster, now editor of the
Jersey City Journal. Prior to the
coming of Major Pangborn as master
of the school, the boys had whipped
several masters. Soon after Pangborn
had been installed it was decided
that his mettle should be tried.
George Dewey was selected by the
other boys to make the test. L.
Major Pangborn heard of the plot
Dewey was called from his seat in
the midst of a session of the school.
He refused to respond. The other
boys chuckled. Master Pangborn
walked down to where young Dewey
was seated, and, with the grasp of
Hercules, took the lad by the collar
and yanked him from his seat and
walked him up to the masters desk.
He was accused of the plot, but re-
fused to acknowledge it, When Mas
ter Pangborn had finished with young
Dewey"he was escorted home, where
he had to lie abed for several days as
the result of his thrashing. Dewey
was too big hearted to harbor up
feeling against the schoolmaster, and
afterward there grew UP between pu-
pill and pedagogue the most friendly
