SOME WISE DON'TS.

Don't confound hauteur with dignity
or repose with stupidity.
Don't "howl," ''roar" or explode"
To laugh heartily is better.
Don't pose. Affectation is a bar to
respect, let alone confidence.
Don't groan over the wickedness of
the world, but mend your own.
Don't boast. The illterate and the
self conscious are thus made manifest.
Don't use superlatives. Few things
require them, and they weaken descrip-
ton
Don't preach unless you have prac-
tlced. Deeds are tremendously con-
vincing.
Don't think foreigner can compre-
hend you any better If you shout into
his ear.
Don't forget that politeness is the
foster sister of diplomacy and an es-
sential tact.
Don't appraise book at anothers
valuation. Critics are not censors alb
solute.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

American Shamrock.

Few people, comparatively speak.
ing, are aware that the shamrock, Ire
lands national emblem, grows in many
parts of the United States,'' said
Michael Cavanagh, of Boston, during
a recent visit to Washington.
II was out walking In the northwest
section of Washington yesterday, and
saw loads of shamrock In one of the
parks. 1t is identically the same as
that which hourishes on the soil of
Erin. A good many people confuse the
shamrock with clover, which it resem-
bles considerably, but the shamrock
can always be told from the other by
its small yellow blossoms, exactly like
a strawberry bloom. This blossom puts
forth five little yellow leaves. Now
the blossom of the clover is either red
or white, and it is larger and shaped
differently.
1.-THE shamrock has three leaves,
which, In most instances, are perfect
in their heart shape, though not al
ways so, and 1t grows luxuriantly In
limestone regions. The tradition that
st. Patrick explained the mystery of
the Trinity by the little flower is the
common explanation of it's adoption as
Ireland's most cherished emblem

vided his force and followed. He and
his party followed them to an Indian
village near where Is Northampton,
Summit County. They were expecting
Brady with numbers four to his one,
and compelled, him to retreat. Brady
and his companions separated and the
Indians followed him, trying to capture
the Cuyahoga River. He directed his
course to a narrow place In the river at
the present site of Kent, near where
the large stone bridge now stands. The
overhanging rocks on each side made
the distance twenty-five feet. The In
dians refrained from shooting, as they
desired to capture him alive for torture.
Arriving at the narrow place on the
river, with superhuman strength and
agility, Brady jumped and landed safe
ly on the rock on the other side. The
foremost Indian called on him, Heap
jump, white man." Knowing they
could not make the leap, they fired
upon him-one bullet wounding him in
the hip.
This place on the Cuyahoga River has
since been called "Brady's Leap"
Brady Immediately made his way, fol-
lowed by the Indians, to the lake, and
jumped in and swan under water until
he reached fallen oak tree on the west
side, and hid himself under this tree,
getting breath by using the broken
stem of a hollow weed. The Indians
followed him and were once upon the
fallen tree beneath which he was con-
cealed. He could hear their conversa-
ton. When at last they decided he
was drowned they withdrew. With pain
and suffering Brady at last reached his
home again.
From this incident this lake was for
many years known as "Brady's Pond"
and finally In later years has been
"Brady's Lake" For the last ten
years it has been used as summer re-
sort.

1t Is q fact beyond dispute, as all
the mining men of Cripple Greek know,
that practically all the big veins of the
Cripple Greek district run into Mr.
Stratton's territory. The indications
are that many of these veins converge
to a common point within his ground.
This would indicate that the great
mother vein. the center from which the
great veins and ore shoots of the dis
trict radiate, is directly under the
ground owned by Mr.. Stratton.
From the shafts being sunk good
ore is being taken, the different veins
being followed up as they show them
selves.
