"The best of wealth is not what it
does for the owner, but what it en-
ables him to do for others. And let
me tell you there is nothing in
money beyond having competence,
nothing but the satisfaction of being
able TO help others. "-Aadretc Car
negie.
Bishop Potter says that "the whole
theory of John b. Coughs teaching
was false and rotten" This is
strong language, but perhaps none
of the booxers who signed the pledge
under Coughs eloquent pleading
will take to strong drink on that
account.-Richmond Nescs.
Many man who is summoned as
a juror magnifies the strength of his
opinion for the sake of avoiding jury
service, and others, too conscientious
to shirk q duty, do the same thing
in order that there may be no mis-
take as to their fitness. Consequently
it not infrequently happens that the
best qualified men are excused from
the jury box, while those too igno-
rant to understand the significance
Of testimony or too indifferent to be
really trustworthy take their places.

we could say was navigation He
sent us aboard a vessel and imagine
our surprise at finding we had been
shipped as common sailors. All
through the voyage we had to scrub
decks and work just as the others
did. The English sailors found out
that we had money, and it was soon
gambled away from us. But not
all, for we kept two dollars care
fully slowed away in an old stock
ing for emergencies"
With these two dollars Ito and his
friend arrived one wet and stormy
day at London docks. No one came
to meet them and they were left
alone, hungry and destitute in the
great city. One of the dollars was
tossed in the air. and on the cast

bakers shop, threw the dollar on the
counter, seized loaf of bread, and,
without stopping for the change,
rushed back to Ito, who, tired and
ravenous, was waiting for him. Next
day their friends came for them, and
they were no longer alone. Such was
Ito's first introduction to England

The case recently reported in the
public prints OF serious attack of
blood poisoning, the source of which
was traced to verdigris found on q
metal door knob, is one more warning
for eternal vigilance in the way of
cleanliness in every part Of the house.
The particular door knob in the in
stance referred to was in a public
building, and was probably nobody's
care. The illness resulting from it is
an alarming warning to housekeepers
to watch for similar dangerous pos.
sibilities in their own domain. 1t also
emphasizes the fact that cut or abra-
sion Of any kind on the skin means
that the greatest care should be ex.
ercised as to what comes in contact
with it, until the place is healed.
