TANKS OF FACTS.
There is n Difference Between In
formation and Knowledge.

hhu tAhONltukGs
A great many people mistake infor-
nation for knowledge. What man
most needs Is not that he may be pos
sessed of an accumulation OF facts, but
that he may know where to look for
the facts when he wants them. We all
know the unpleasant individual who is
continually seeking information. You
show him about your city and he asks:
How many miles of street railway
have you In your city," What is the
price of ice here this summer" How
many churches are there here?" "How
etc, ad nauseam. You don't know and
wonder why he wants TO. You know
where you can find out, and that is
enough for you
And then there Is that equally dis
agreeable person who actually seems
to be a tank of facts. He has more In
formation than anything else and de-
lights in asking you most extraordinary
questions. When you confess your ig-
norance, he will look upon you with
pity and exclaim. What, don't you
know" and then tell you when you
don't want to know ut all. For exam
pie, he Is much surprised because you
don't know how long the Amazon river
Is. He permits you-nay, he insists
that you should guess, only that he
may the better humiliate you. His
brain Is 50 incumbtred with facts that
1t Is almost useless. Life is too short
for n man to try to constitute himself
q library Of universal knowledge when
the reservoirs of such knowledge are
ready TO hand when 1t is needed.-Man-
chester Union.

Speaking Italics.

A piece of parliamentary repartee
quite rs good rs the famous retorts in
the house of commons and our con-
gress comes from New England uni
yersity. Two students ranged against
each other In debate grew very warm
and took to commenting ON each 9th
er's oratorical manner. One of them
spoke with much emphasis, letting the
stress of his voice fall exploslvely ON
certain passages.
His opponent opened his speech by
saying "My friend on the negative
thinks to win this debate by speaking
exclamation marks and italics"
The other could do nothing at the
moment to turn the laugh which this
speech raised, but when his turn came
he got back" ut his opponent with
this retort:
MY friend on the affirmative says |
speak italics. | should say that he
uses italics in the way they are used
In the English Bible-not to emphasize
but to mark what is not original and
inspired. "-Youth's Companion.

How Victor Hugo worked.

Victor Hugo always wrote standing
at a high desk especially constructed
for him, throwing Off sheet after sheet
as fast as he filed 1t till he would be
quite showed up In leaves of foolscap.
He often rose In the middle of the
night to note down nm iden or n verse
He got up for the day usually at
O'clock and would devote from six tC
eight hours per diem to his work. He
made but few corrections, his poems
being thought out complete in his brain
before he put pen to paper. 1t Is well
known fact that he INDUCED in the ar
duous task Of composition while trav-
ersing the streets of Paris on the top
of an omnibus. When working out
some great conception, he would spend
hours In this way.

and, turning away. he walked slowly

The village knew what was the mat.

more, but 1t was considerate of his suf-

Two weeks before the school closed
Jim was down ut the railroad shops
where Jack Murfln was foreman. Hewas

pen to be elsewhere at the moment, and
he was sitting In the shade whiting.
Possibly he was somewhat more ac-

across the yards toward a gap In the
fence, and he knew the date of Jacks
wedding day. They were not friends
In the sense of associates, but Jack did
not care how much Jim enjoyed him.

not interfere with business, and Jim
had never been given to interfering
with business IL 1t did not interfere
with him.
Intent upon his thoughts, Jim con-
tlnued whiting until presently he was
recalled to his surroundings by shout
of alarm. 1t was Jacks voice, and,
iOOhluE tuIouSu the Cup III thC hSheSf
he saw Jack lying across the rails, with
| his leg twisted under him and his foot
fast in frog. He had passed out to
the main tracks, and Jim heard train
coming. Quicker than he had ever
moved before In all his stagnant life
he cleared the space between them and
stood In the track over his rivals body.
The heavy engine coming down had
been reversed, but too late, and no pow
er on earth could stop 1t. But Jim nev-
er faltered Lifting the PROSTATE man

to give the light that never fades.

Old Time Education of Children

OlO Oh
Now that there is SO much talk about
education it Is interesting to look back
and see what seventeenth century
moralst had to say about the teaching
of children I'VE are In Pain to make
them Scholars, but not Men," he wrote;
ito talk rather than to know, which
IN true Canting The first Thing obvi-
GUS to Children Is what is sensible. and
that we make no Part OF their Rudi-
ments"
But what is of most Significance to us
is the same writer's appeal for tech
meal education. 1--WE press their Mem
DRY too soon and puzzle, strain and
load them with Words and Rules; to
know Grammar and Rhetoric and a
strange Tongue or two that 1t is ten to
one may never be useful to them; Leay-
ing their natural Genius to Mechanical
and Physical or Natural knowledge UNI
cultivated and neglected which would
be of exceeding Use and Pleasure to
them through the whole Course Of their
Life"

than the historian who is forced to use

Most people are eager to have a
good, tried recipe for longevity. There
are many such about, but few are
really practicable or really reliable, as
what has proved good in one case has
not done SO In another, but the advice
offered by Sir Henry Thompson to
those who would like to reach old age,
as he has done, and remain vigorous
and Woodworking as well, is really pos
sible for all to follow. He does not
pretend that longevity can be attained
quite easily. On the contrary, his sys-
TEN involves much self denial but, at
least. 1t is not an eccentric one. His
theory, based on practical and personal
experience, Is that strict temperance IN
food as well as drink will prolong life.
In early life one may eat freely, but as
middle life Is reached one must "slow
down" Eat as little MS possible, drink
as little as possible and always eat
simply, and you will be on the safe
side, he AYERS. One can thoroughly be-
lleve such n doctrine. Large and in
discreet feeders are never as well or as
long lived as their brethren who ap-
parently show no appreciation Of food.

RELICS OF EARLY DAYS.
Fail Fences and Dugout Canoes Sur
Vive Civilizations March.

Vive Civilizations March.
One of the remarkable features of
country life in America is the singular
persistence of the rail fence and the
dugout canoe. No matter how thickly
settled section may become or how
long 1t may have been settled, these
two survivors of early settlement linger
on as stubbornly as ever. Today in the
thickest settled parts of New England
and New York the rail fence is met
with, while the shad fishermen of the
Potomac and James rivers and Chesa-
peake bay, on the banks of which the
first English settlements In America
were established, still manufacture and
employ the old dugout canoe in making
the rounds of their shad nets.
The dugout canoe is the simplest and
most primitive water craft known and
was used by prehistoric man, both In
this country, Europe and Asia. 1t Is
made out of log of wood by trimming
the outside down TO the proper proper
tons of boat and by digging OUT
the inside with an adj and by the aid
of fire. The Potomac river dugout is to-
day pretty much the same as it was
In the days of Powhatan and differs
from the general run of dugout canoes
In the absence Of curved bow and
stern and In having rather high sides,
which rise to u summit from either
end of the boat. being highest in the
middle, where the seat is placed

Those Dull Ducks.

l recall Mr.. Lowell telling. loosely,
in an after dinner speech In Cambridge
how he met an acquaintance (of dubi-
Gus standing) whose cheerful face and
happy demeanor led him to ask the
cause of such exuberant felicity.
"Why," said the genial smller, i've
discovered a way to make my fortune.
We all know that the reason for tho
fine flavor of the wild duck is the wild
celery on which it feeds. Now, I pro-
pose to feed 1t to the domestic duck and
supply the market"
Some weeks later, on meeting his ne.
quaintance again, Mr.. Lowell found

youthful farm servant glass of milk
by way of compensating him for doing

The lad, true son Of Scotia, put on
an air OF unmlstakable disappointment
at the unwelcome smallness Of the
glass. The Englishman. thinking to d.

animation, jauntily asked:

The Brave Robins.

The most singular instance that
have known of a robins fearlessness
was the kind of military instinct which
some years ago led a pair to make
their nest at the back of target al
Aldershot! 1t was in the shooting range
of the Fourth battalion of the Sixtieth
rifles, and the colonel Of the regiment
told me of 1t at the time. The little
pair paid not the least attention to the
shots laundering on the target just of
the back of their nest. The soldiers
were careful not to NEEDLE with them
and the young brood Matched and were
brought up In safety.-Cornhill.
