There is no such thing as silence IN
this world. 1t is an impossibility. That
is partly the reason why science has en-
abled us to see il.
The explanation of the paradox is
this: Silence, as we understand it, sim
ply means that there are sounds too
delicate or too loud for the ear to regis
ter. In other words, when we can't
hear anything we call that condition
''silence." But wherever you are there
are sounds around you. Even in the
deepest mine the air vibrates and
makes n sound. An instrument has
been invented that will catch these
sounds and permit of the vibrations be-
ing represented pictorially Oh screen.
and in that way You may see silence
and properly understand what il
means
BY comparing the pictures of noises
with those of that condition of things
known as silence we gain an idea of the
difference between a noisy night, for
instance, and one when absolute ST
lence reigns," as the novelist puts it. Ii
is rather surprising TO find so much dis
turbance at the time when everything
appears to be perfectly quiet.-Pear'
sons Weekly.

Diplomatic.

The late Lord Savile used to say. ac-
cording TO The Candid Friend, that
high diplomatists had always TO be on
their guard against intriguing women.
mainly Russian agents. who would use
any vile TO extract information. Dur
ing the Russo-Turkish war, when Eu-
rope was always on the verge of a
crisis and Russian statesmen were
most anxious to know what England
would do under given circumstances,
a lady came up to him suddenly at a
ball and said:
81 hear that the Russians have made
a forced march aud entered Constan-
tinople." hoping no doubt that he would
be surprised into some indiscreet ex-
preston.
He merely replied:
"Ineed! And / suppose the sultan
has conferred on them the order of the
Turkish Bath"
The lady continued gravely:
And they say in Paris that If Eng
land does not interfere the eastern
question is settled in favor of Russia
And that" replied his excellency,
is, / suppose, the new judgment of
Paris"

gay in Egypt. Well it happened
that Joshph hit the nail on the head.
For seven years the largest corn crops
ever known in the country were
raised and the price went down to
Z cents bushel. Joseph. Pharaoh &
Co. bought up every bushel until
they had all the empty houses in town
filled with corn. Everybody said
they would go to the wall, but they
didn't, for at the expiration OF the
seventh year drouth set in and for
seven years the farmers did not raise
corn enough for seed, and the price
went up to 81 % bushel and Joseph,
Pharaoh q Potiphar made stake and
Joseph played even with Madam
Potiphar and his twelve brethren who
got their backs up about his spotted
coat and sold him as a slave into the
land of Egypt. This true story of
Pharaoh's dream is written to show
some people who are always calling
something .'pipe dream" that they
do not know the value of good,
healthy, cornfed dream like Pharaoh's.
But Pharaoh is not the only dreamer
that ever lived. There are modern
dreamers who can give the old Egyp-
tian corn husker a double discount
and dream all around MIN. Tom Or
ton can dream, of cattle or of corn,
and also of the feathered throng-
the duck, the quail, the squirrel,
rabbit and all the game that so de-
lights the sportsman. One night last
week he dreamed that he went down
to the Calls n-Pierce-Schm ittges
camp at Cassville where he was in
vited to dinner and that two chefs
were required to cook for his raw
enous appetite and that when the
feast was over and the carcasses were
counted it was learned that alone and
unaided he had finished two mallards,
teal, some Iowa partridge, a rabbit
and two squirrels, and 10 and behold
a few days later this dream came
true.

THE OLD
BLUE JAR

Before Clementine went down to
Midtown for the summer she made up
her mind that she would bend all her
energies to wheedle Aunt Phoebe out Of
the old blue ginger jar that Uncle
julius had brought home from China,
little thinking that the old slant eyed,
fat sided mandarin would take such a
jocular interest in her joys and sor-
rows.
The old blue Jar had perched for
many years on the corner of the high
mantelpiece in the old fashioned coun-
try parlor. and Aunt Phpbe knew that
If she gave It to Clementine she would
have dTeadfully lonesome feeling
every time she stood ON chair TO dust
the old clock. the shells, the peddler
vases. the leather fans and other com
panions of its lofty abode. But Glenn
entinc was an accomplished wheedler,
and the fond old aunt finally said she
might have her wish.
When Aunt Phnbe gave over TO
Clementine her right and title to the
old blue jar. Randall was leaning in
the window and idly sitting rose leaves
from the old climbing vine through the
meshes of his tennis racket. lie sympa-
thized with her lively admiration for
the antique and unique in china and
was glad that she had attained her
hearts desire. but more absorbing in
terest possessed his manly breast.
Clementine was going home in the
morning, and he had been trying in
vain for several days to get the feeble
courage Of his ardent convictions up
to the decIarative point. She was such
a lively, fun loving girl, and love, you
know, is such intensely serious busi-
ness. Several times Randall fancied
he had found her in a sober and prop
erly receptive frame of mind. when
with n triflng Jest she would defeat
his intention ana put the little god to
flight.
Now. however, when the slant eyed
mandarin on the blue Jar winkcd ut
him through the vines. Randall said TO
himself enthusiastically
We'll, old boy. that's the very thing!
Thank you for the bright idea. Are
they all as clever as you are over in
China"
That night, IN his room under the
caves. he constructed an eloquent let
ter to Clementine and in tile early
morning sneaked into the parlor and
deposited it in the robust bosom Of the
old blue mandarin.
IF she finds 1t before she goes home,
II IS all right" said the timorOus. ador-
ing fellow. "and IL she doesn't find Il
until afterward it will be all right too"
But the mandarin felt a little funny
that day. 50 when Clementine packed
her trunk he inspired her 10 stuff the

the precious article might take no risks
Of breakage In its voyage SO when
Randall parted from her at the station

in particular, and his hopeful heart de-

.About Sneezing.

We frequently hear the expression,
GOD bless your uttered after some
one has sneezed. The expression, If
we can believe Clodd in his Childhood
Of the World" dates back to the time
of Jacob. We are told In Jewish lit
erature that previous to his time men
sneezed but once in lifetime and that
was the end of them, for the shock
slew them. Jacob prevailed in prayer
and had the fatality set aside on the
condition that among all the nations q
sneeZe should be hallowed by the
words. 'God bless your In the "Jata-
ka." one of the books of the Buddhist
Scriptures, we read that the express
sion was, May the blessed Lord al
low you to liver
Buddha on one occasion while
preaching to his disciples happened to
sneeze. The priests gave vent to the
exclamation. and Buddha leetured them
for interrupting his discourse
IF when a person sneezes," he asked,
"and you say, May he liver win he
live the longer?'
Certainly notp cried the priests.
And If you do not say it will he die
any the soonerf'
Certainly notw was the reply
Then said Buddha. from this time
forth if any one sneeze and a priest
says, May you live" he shall be guilty
of transgression."

Has been rudely defined by some cynic
as cslops and sweets" And after all
there's more truth than poetry in the
definition. Ice cream and cake may
satisfy the palate, but they are far from
satisfying to the stomach, which requires
that food be nutritious first and nice
afterward. BY careless eating women
pave the way for stomach vtrouble,"
and its kindred miseries.
DR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-

cure for diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
BY curing diseases which prevent the

Reflections of a Bachelor.

Women like to 90 TO Turkish baths
because they learn so many truths
there about other women's feet.
A woman's way of being extremely
nice to caller whom she wants to
like her is TO let her hold the baby
for a minute.
A woman can always tell when
man is in love with her by the way
she thinks he pictures her to himself
standing in great shining light.
If man is only careful TO carry
woman's picture and lock of her hair
inside of his watch case he can treat
her most any way and she is sure it
is sign of his love.
Our good deeds slip away easily;
our sins ride US with whip and spur.
From youth we learn nothing about
age, but from age we learn all we
know about youth.
A bachelor is one because he could
but wouldn't; a maid because she
would but couldn't.
1t isn't any worse, but somehow it
always seems worse to be half a liar
than half truthful.
Love that has to be carried in the
door with supporting arms can fit
out the window with its own wings.
You can convince a woman, but
yor can never change her opinion.
When man is down on his luck,
he can keep on dropping forever, and
it will be still further down.
Farmers are not superstitious.
They would rather have the price of
plain, ordinary hay $40 ton than to
have nine barns full of four-leaved
clover.
There are lectures and lectures.
Some people pay good money to hear
one from public platform and they
would pay ten times as much not to
hear one from their wives.
Women could be just as different
from what they are as you can imagine
end they wouldn't be any nearer to
mans idea of what he thinks they are
before he learns enough to know they
aren't.
Women Judge another's engage
ment good deal by the ring that
goes with it.
Babies are pearls in chain of mat
rimony that otherwise might seem a
chain of bondage.
When a woman wants to cut the
heart out of her best friend, she says
her hair seems much softer and finer
than when she was younger.
1t taxes an engaged couple a long
time to say good night, but not half
so long as it takes woman and her
caller to say good afternoon.
Experience gives us knowledge,
but it costs us ideals.
AS children selfishness is taught us
by indulgent parents.
Youth strews flowers in the path
before beauty's feet; age strews itself
there.
At breakfast man does more grumb-
ling than anything else; at dinner
more talking; at luncheon he just
eats.
A wedding without church cere-
mony is about as satisfactory to the
average girl as a new gown with no
one TO see it.
Being happy is mostly not being
unhappy.
It's the cook who can understand
best why the man of the house who is
deaf is the happiest.
Usually there is discord in the
hearts of the church choir, however
much harmony in their voices.
Some women have got to quarrel
with their husbands if the only rea-
son they can find for it is that lie
isn't quarrelsome enough.
