No Guards for Roosevelt.

WAsHINGToN. September a1.-The
fact that President Roosevelt walked
from the White House to the residence
of Secretary Hay and back at lunch
time. and also to the COwles residence
at the close of his work to-day, alone
and apparently unmatched by police
men or secret service agents, has caus-
ed widespread comment. The act
serves as an object Lesson touching the
nev Presidents attitude on the much-
discussed question of the wisdom and
efficacy of guards about the person of
the President. Plainly President
Roosevelt does not feel in need of apy
further protection than Citizen Theo-
doris Roosevelt had and does not mean
to have it.
The President is not led to this de-
termination by q spirit of bravadO,
but because re knows that guards
never have succeeded aud never will
succeed in staying the hand of an
Anarchist assassin. President Roose-
yelt will take all precautions suggested
by prudence and proper regard for
tho Importance and dignity of his
Office. but he will not be surrounded by
guards. Neither will he be reckless.
10 put it in nutshell, President
ROOSEVELT is evidently prepared 10 de-
fend himself from threatened danger
when going about his ordinary pur-
suits. He undoubtedly feels Justified
IN assuming that it man offers to at
tack him the assailant will be the man
to be pitied rather than his intended
victim

Encouragement.

A young probationer was preach
ing his trial sermon in the church
in one of the inland villages of Scot
land. After finishing the "dis-
coorse" he leaned over the pulpit
and engaged in silent prayer, an act
which surprised the congregation,
which was unaccustomcd to such
procedure. Suddenly the young
preacher felt some one slapping him
gently on the shoulder, and on turn
ing around he beheld a grave and
sympathetic elder, who remarked,
'Hoot, man, dinna t.. , it sac

There is right way to do this as
well as in doing everything else. If
the parsley is wet, dry it thorough
ly in towel; then pick the leaves
from the stems; gather the leaves
closely between the thumb and two
fingers, press tightly and hold on
board with the fingers slanting in
such manner that the nails, will pr
lect the ends of the fingers from the
knife. With a sharp, pointed vege-
table knife cut through the parsley
as close to the fingers as possible.
In this way each stroke Of the knife
does the work completely. the pars.
ley is minced fine and evenly and
does not have to be gone over again.
So many minutes are saved and per
feet results oibttaincl. This is what
knowing just how" means to the
busy housewife. Twelve times five
minutes saved makes an hour to
rest from the busy routine of house
hold cares, and surely that is worth
the striving for.

Naval Officers of the Port.

The title of naval officer as ap-
piled to one Of the officials of the
custom house has always been an
enigma to most people, and very
few have any idea Of how it was
created. The office dates back to
the colonial days when Charles II
was king Of England, and his broth
er, after James II, was duke of
York. James received a percentage
of all customs receipts in America,
and was also the lord high admiral
of the English navy.
He had very little confidence
in the men whom his brother
selected as collectors of customs
in this country, and in order to
protect his own interests he in
sisted on appointing a man whose
duty it would be to approve
every permit issued by the collector
before it would be valid. AS lord
high admiral he naturally selected
these men from his own officers and
placed naval officer in every Gus
tom house in the British provinces
in America. Both the Office and
duties remain practically unchanged
to this day, and the ''naval officer, !"
who is merely an auditor, must still
countersign all permits.

thoughtfully. "But it may surprise
you to learn that it is not nearly SO
dangerous as the old form of balloon

and thus clear distractions that you

being that I dragged it along with me.

The .roquois. Legend of Creation.

s"S s'oHeo'S GoSSHo OF Nredtton.
The Iroquois have legend of
their own describing the creation.
In the past deep water covered the
earth. The air was filled with birds
am monsters were in possession of
the waters when beautiful woman
was seen falling from the sky. Then
huge ducks gathered in council and
resolved to meet this wonderful
creature and break the force of her
fall. So they rose and, with pinion
overlapping pinion, unitedly received
the burden. Then the monsters Of
the deep also gathered in council to
decide which one should hold this
celestial being and protect her from
the terrors of the waters, but none
was able except giant tortoise,
who volunteered to endure this
weight upon his back. There she
was gently placed, while he, con-
stantly increasing in size, soon be-
came large island.
Twin boys were after time
brought forth by the woman, one
the spirit of good, who caused the
maize, fruit and tobacco to grow;
the other the spirit of evil, who Gre
ated the weeds and all vermin. From
that time the world steadily in
creased in size, although occasional
quakings were felt, caused by the eff
forts Of the monster tortoise to
stretch himself.

Sure way Of DRAWING > stonper.

One of the small annoyances of
life occasionally is the attempt to
draw an obstinate glass stopper.
Immersion in hot water for some
minutes is sometimes cfficacious,
but far from always. A sure method
is to lock bureau drawer, tie a cord
70 handle OF key, holding the other
end firmly, and over this taut cord
run rapidly the neck of the obsti-
nate bottle. In less than two min
utes the. glass will be too hot to
touch and will have expanded all
around the refractory stopper,
which will fairly fall out.
