The Pace That Kills.

the people work on this side for the
sake of work, they appear to regard it
not as means to an end, but the end
itself. This universal rush and hurry
impresses itself very forcibly on Eu-
ropeans. Some years ago | was visit
ing friend in Russia, which is very
quiet country indeed. and, the conversa-
tion turning on London, some one re-
marked upon the unceasing activity
and press in the British capital, and how
the people hurried along the street dur
ing the busy hours of the day. An old
Russian thereupon, with a grave shake
oil his head, observed that he had been in
London once, and that nearly all it's cit

old gentleman would have thought if he
had ever made pilgrimage to Chicagep
Now, it is questionable in my mind
whether this traffic pace is healthy
thing for people. Isn't it the pace
that kills? Why not leave something
for succeeding generations to do? Your
rich men, instead of settling on big
country estates and helping to improve
the rural districts, seem to all cluster in

their fortunes. The mania for work, for

"1es, it might have been ages ago."

the ashes from his lon s-stemmed pipe
and crushing dry tobacco leaf in the
palm of his hand for fresh charge.
Miss Hester was just saying she
thought we'd seen each other some-
where before came to Tregarthen, and
I'm almost sure she's right. We were
trying to locate the time and place"
"Oh, reckon it's just Imagination"

dust into the bowl of his pipe. "That is,
without you've been visitin' the young
ladies' schools in Virginia."

to get abetter view.

from his chair and ran into the house,

on the lawn. Henry saw it, and would
have fired if his father had not wrested
the gun from his hands. "Seems like

Plan to Establish Them In Cuba and

Plan to Establish Them In Cuba and
Porto Rico to Benefit Our Fighters.
The service of the United States
weather bureau, which has proved Of
great value to the government in the
war so far, is to be extended to Cuba.
A plan looking to the enlargement OF
the service so as to enable it to keep the
American feet and the army in Cuba
informed of the weather indications has
been submitted to congress by the Sec
retaries of agriculture and the navy, and
a bill will soon be reported for estab-
fishing weather stations in Cuba, King
stop, Porto Rico and on the northern
coast of South America. The scheme in
wolves the establishment Of a dissent
mating station at Mole st. Nicholas. At
least eight stations will be located in
order to perfect satisfactory system.
Secretary Long believes the weather
forecasts will help protect our feet from
West Indian hurricanes The certainty
that the close of the war will greatly
increase the commerce Of Cuba, Porto
Rico and South America with American
and European markets is an additional
reason brought forward for the estab-
lishment Of the weather stations The
plan is to continue the service after the
close Of the war as of great value to
maritime and commercial interests. The
plan involves an expenditure of less than
SO. 900 a year.-New York World.
