HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Did you ever stop to think what
it means to wish your friends 4
Happy New Year," 1t implies
so many things whish it does not
specify. 1t says to them that you
would have them prosperous. that
they may realize to the fullest ex-
tent the real enjoyment Of living.
that care may touch but lightly
their hearts and that they may
have prosperity throughout the
coming year.
Perhaps you cannot prevent mis>
fortune from coming to those who
call you friend" but you can cer>
tainly add to their pleasure by
many little acts OF friendship and
love, to show to them that you are
sincere in wishing them "Happy
New Year"
Do not let your wish be the last
of your efforts to make them happy,
but continue throughout the year
to do little acts Of kindness which
shall do more than all the wishes it
would be possible for you to make.
You will be surprised at the differ
ence it will make in your own life.
True happiness may be fonnd in
making others happy. the greatest

What Her Father Was.

A little girl who belongs to an In
diana family has been interested OF
late in the hicknames applied to the
natives of different States, and has
asked her mother many questions
about "Wolverines" and Buckeyes
and "Suckers" and dear only knows
what else. Recently she was heard
talking with a group Of playmates.
The little girls were evidently discus
sing their fathers.
"My fathers minister" said one
little girl. "He came from Kentucky.
and he's Christian"
"My fathers in Office" said a Sec
ond child. ~ don't know where be
came from, but guess everybody In
Office is Christian.
This brought the subject up to the
little girl of Indiana parentage. 1t
happens that her father had a father
who made it possible for the former
gentlem to live without any occupa-
ton. However, she couldn't let the
other girls Drag of their fathers with

lis" she said, proudly, "and he's a

Melon Feast at a Wedding.

Rev. Julian Broaddus, pastor ofthe
Baptist church at Berryville, has
record of having married more couples
than any other minister in that section,
and in that long list there are many
whose wedding costumes would sur
prise the modistes Of Paris. Tuesday
afternoon he reached the limit, SO far
az romance was concerned. Benia-
min Wines, of Loudoun, who has be-
come an adopted son of Clarke, had
lust finished cutting corn, and he
thought of taking unto himself a wife.
Attired in a nobby black suit and
broad-rimmed hat, army leggings and
substantial footwear, with not much
attention paid to baberdashery for the
neck, he came to Berryville with Miss
Margaret A. Williams. She was a
perfect picture under a black hat,
trimmed with red roses and fluffy
looking lace.
After procuring the license the
county clerk acted as errand boy, and
he made quick trip across several
streets, fences and vacant lots for a
preacher. At this juncture the pros
pective groom said he could not al
ford to cut corn at 81 per day and pay
it just to get married. When there
appeared no way out of it he gave over
the dollar, and the marriage proceed
ed in the temple of justice. Later
they had watermelon feast.

How Glass Beads Are Made.

Glass beads are made in the follow
ing manner:
Two workmen take the melted glass,
colored or uncolored, from the pot by
dipping their blowing tubes into it.
Each man then expands the gather
ing" on the end of his tube, opens the
hollow bulb at the end of his tube,
and the two bulbs while still very hot
are joined together. This done, the
men walk rapidly in opposite direc-
tions, thus drawing out the hollow
glass until it is long rod of small d.
mansions. All this is done in shed
somewhat like a rope walk.
The rod cools very quickly and Is
broken into pieces about foot long
These shorter lengths are annealed
and cut again into mere fragments.
The next stage in the process is
placing these fragments into drum
with a mixture Of charcoal and plaster
and causing the drum to revolve over
fire. The effect is TO soften the per-
forated canes, as they may be called,
and give them a rounded form, the
charcoal and plaster dust preventing
the beads from sticking together while
soft.
