Do Good-It pays.

A Chicago man has observed
that, "Good deeds are better than
real estate deeds-some OF the lat.
ter are worthless. Act kindly and
gently, show sympathy and lend
a helping hand. You cannot pos
s.bly lose by it." Most men ap-
preciate kind word and encour-
agement more than substantial
help. There are persons in this
community who might truthfully
say: Ny good friend, cheer up. A

LEARN TO BREATHE.
Muscular Exercise Which Every One
Should Undertake.

From the New York Tribune.
What on earth are you trying to do.
Jim?'
The man to whom the question was adj
dressed was standing in the center of the
gymnasium clad in the scanty apparel af-
fected by athletes when at work. His
heels were close together, his arms were
equally close to his sides, the palms Of his
hands facing backward. Without replying,
he slowly raised his hands upward and
forward until they were on parallel lines
and at full length above his head. Then
he lifted himself till he stood on the tips
Of his toes, holding his breath the while.
Just as slowly and deliberately he resumed
his original position, and as he did so he
replied to the question.
II am learning to breathe" said he.
Learning to breathe? Why, thought
that everybody did that during the first
few seconds Of existence"
Not by any means, my boy, as you will
find out If you go into training under the
instruction Of competent teacher. Not
one man in a hundred knows how to
breathe properly-that Is, to fill the lungs
to their utmost capacity and at the same
it easy to do. What I have just been doing
is one of the movements by which the
thorax Is developed. Others there are for
the purpose of strengthening the abdomi-
nal muscles. a prime necessity to enable
one to breathe correctly. These exercises,
If kept up, not only increase the power to
breathe deeply and freely, but they add
to your ability to expand the chest. the
stoop caused by round shoulders Is per-
manently cured, and ones figure and gem
eral health are vastly benefited. Even IL
there is no intention Of becoming an ath-
lete, every man, woman and child ought
to learn these movements and practice
them on general principles
And he went on with his work, while
his friend made mental resolution to
give 1t trial.

UTILIZING THE EUPHRATEs
It is Said That Mesopotamia May Be
Reclaimed by Its Waters.
From the New York Sun

FROM the New York Sun.
Explorers say that in no region of west
ern Asia is the ground strewn with more
numerous ruins than in Mesopotamia. Its
present poverty is almost as remarkable
as were its ancient fertility and wealth.
The soil is mixed with fragments of bricks
and .earthenware; the so-called tells or
mounds of rubbish are dotted in thousands
of places over the plains, while few re-
mains of towers and crumbling walls mark
the sites of large cities, the very names
of many of which are now unknown
The plains of Mesopotamia have fallen
from their former pre-eminence for two
reasons One is that the traders and farm
ers scattered over the plains were exposed
on all sides to the incursion of barbarous
hordes, their cities were sacked and razed
to the ground and the population was re-
duced till today it is scarcely over /, 600 600
In a territory as large France; more
than one-half of the present inhabitants
are nomads, whose tents are pitched on the
verge of the desert
The other reason for the present desola-
ton is that irrigation works were DESTROYED
and the fertile areas were ruined by the in
vasion of the sands of the desert on the
southwest side. Just as the sands of the
Sahara have been blown over grass lands
to the north and thus extended the desert
toward the Mediterranean SO in the region
of the Euphrates and Tigris millions of
acres of once fruitful lands have been
turned into waste places by the invasion of
sand storms.
Mr.. Ellsworth Huntington, who has re-
Gently visited the Euphrates, says there can
be no doubt that the river will be utilized
some day to reclaim the plains of Mesopo-
tamia, through which it passes He says
the Euphrates needs controlling just as the
British are controlling the Nile. England
has found that the only way to secure mas
terry over the Nile is to control its sources:
therefore she is now making the huge dam
at Assuan and is considering the greater
task of regulating the outflow of the Afri-
can lakes.
More than three-fourths of the rainfall
of the upper Euphrates falls in the seven
months from October to April If the pre-
cipitation of this period could be retained
among the mountains and allowed to escape
during the late spring and summer 1t would
not only save Mesopotamia from the annual
floods, which carry away great sections of
land along the banks, but would also en-
able vast tracts Of the best land to be irri-
gated and reclaimed from the desert
The extent of this region that may be re-
claimed by means of the river seems to be
as large as England. Mesopotamia can
produce two crops in a year and with irri-
CATION 1t might support ten times many
people as now live there, besides export
ing great quantities of all kinds of food
stuffs. Mr.. Huntington believes that these
wide plains are again destined to be num-
bered among the richest parts of the world.

THE COURT OF HONOR
Plans for It's Illumination
Encampment Week.
BRILLIANT DISPLAY
STATEMENT OF DETAILS OF THE
BIG REVIEW.
Inspection Of Applications for Loan OF
Flags-Supplies for Use Of
Medical Committee.

By the plans adopted this morning at the
headquarters of the citizens executive COM
mittee on the 1902 encampment of the g.
A. r. provision is made for an illumina-
ton of the court of honor in front of the
White House, which will be Of surprising
brilliancy. This conference was attended
by Chairman B. H. Warner, Vice Chairman
Louis p. Shoemaker and Secretary Buckley
for the executive committee; Chairman w.
s. Knox of the committee on Examinations
and Mr.. Thomas ]. Fisher, superintendent
of lamps for the District government. The
scheme Of illumination indicated was
adopted with the hearty approval Of every
one present.
1t is purposed to make the illumination
of the reviewing stands within the court of
honor to conform closely with the plan of
the architect, Mr.. Appleton P. Clark. jr.
The court is to consist of two sections. one
on each side of the fowerbed which is di-
rectly in front of the Jackson monument,
and to be generally Greek in design Along
the columns which are to form The front OF
these two stands will be erected twenty
two corps badges. These will be interrupted
at the box set aside for the President by
two large Grand Army badges and a huge
American shield set over the top of the
stand. There will thus be twenty-five
badges executed in electric lights. focused
on the box which President Roosevelt will
light hung between the pillars which bear
the corps and other badges. 1t is thought
the effect will be superlatively fine. So
comprehensive plan could not have been
adopted except that Mr.. Knox and his asSo-
ciates have been able to find the corps and
other badges already constructed.
The Grand Review.
Col. A. Noel Brakeman, chief Of staff to
Gen. Torrance, has written Secretary Barry
Bulkely of the citizens executive committe
on the 1902 encampment Of the G. A. r.
the following statement of details for the
grand review of Wednesday. October s:
Replying to your telegram with reference
to information about the parade for the
President, l would say that the parade will
form in the streets east of the Capitol
grounds. The head of column will move
from in front of the Congressional Library
building at 10 o'clock am, October 8. 1t
ought to arrive at the reviewing stand at
1880. The commander-in-chief will leave
the column at Madison place, where it will
be halted, and take his place upon the re-
viewing stand. The parade will be organ
lied on the basis of state departments, each
Of which will be assigned it's position &C
cording to the date of it's charter. The
regiment of Sons of Veterans, uniformed,
armed and equipped. They will number
about 500 and be commanded by Col. Reed
of Philadelphia. The parade will probably
be from five to six hours in passing a given
point, if the weather is fair.
II hope this furnishes the information the
President asks for. The parade order ought
to have been printed long ago. 1t may be
out any moment.
