Look about you, gentle reader, and
consider the solemn ass in every walk
of life. Who SO respected, so admired,
so influential? He never takes sides.
He never is partisan. He goes along
with knitted brows, his thoughts too
deep for utterance. Smaller men NAV
abandon themselves to hasty inclina-
tons, to rash preferences, to robust
views. He never does. If he speaks
at all 1t Is with such profundlty and
circumlocution and complexity that the
most reconcile cryptogram ever res
cued from a pyramid would seem to
burst of innocent and childish candor
in comparison. Yet he wears fine raj
ment every day. He enjoys the respect
and confidence of the community. He
prospers. The oil of opulcnce anoints
him. He is the incarnation Of success.

Politicians declared twenty years ago
that the reform of the civil service Oh
the lines urged by the advocates of the
merit system was Impossible. Party
organizations were necessary. they
said, and such organizations could not
be maintained without patronage If
the party workers We're not to be re-
warded by appointment to office there
would be no party workers. 1t was
maintained that the merit system was
contrary to the genius of American
political institutions Only the invet-
crate spokesman, Of whom there are
few left, holds this view to-day. So
great is the change that has come
about in the sentiment, not only of
the politicians, r.It of the general pub
lie, that little attention was attracted
to the announcement by the national
civil Service Commission that it had
extended the rules so as to cover into
the classified service all appointive po-
sitions not expressly excluded by law
The first Civil Service Commission put
less than 1900 places in the classified
service to be filled by competitive ex
animation. This number has grown
until more than 10000 were so filled
prior to the latest revision of the rules
which has increased the number by
some thousands more. j. similar re-
form in the manner of making appoint
ments has been going on in MANY
cities and States, resulting in ne
transformation of the executive Off
GERS from patronage mOngers. or en-
ployment agents into efficient admins
traitors. All concerned have Uroited
by the change. Besides freeing the ex
ecutive officers from the pest of Dlace-
hunters. the reform has opened The
door of public service to every yo1py
man capable of doing his wGrl better
than his competitor. He does not have
to follow party leader about ana
plead for appointment, but after he
gets on the eligible list he is likely 10
be selected to fill the first vacancy. In
any list Of bloodless revolutions the
establishment of the merit system in
the United States civil service should
be included.

There are few fathers engaged in sue.
ceSsful business who would not like TO
have their sons succeed them. Yet that
does not happen so often as to make it
the rule in the United States. The son
usually sets up for himself, and the
fathers business is wound up at his
death, or passes into the hands of stran-
gers This rule is not invariable, for a
few years ago an association of centen.
airy firms and corporations of the Uni
ted States was organized with the
motto, "'Gainst the Tooth Of Time and

People with good blood possess strong,
steady nerves and are blest with good
appetites and digestion, and enjoy
sound, refreshing sleep. If we could
always maintain the purity of the
blood then we might enjoy perpetual
health, but it becomes infected and
poisoned and most of the ills that afflict
humanity and undermine the constitu-
ton are caused by an impoverished
or polluted condition of this vital fluid.

loses its healthy appearance, and the
complexion, its freshness and beauty
and becomes red and rough ard full of
pin!ples and splotches. Itching, scaly
eruptions, blackheads, boils and rashes
break out upon the body when the
blood is too poor or too thin and acid,
and is not supplying proper nourish-

WHY THE BODY NEEDS WATER
1t Is Necessary to Dissolve the Food
and Garry OF WOrn-Out
Material.

Some one has asked: What would
be the cause of death of a person who
drank no water?" This subject has
been studied considerably; animals
have been experimental upon, and it is
found that without water they lose their
power to eliminate the natural poisons;
they must have water in order to elm
mate them, otherwise the secretions be-
come o dense, says Good House
keeping. We need water, not only
to dissolve the food and carry it
along, but we need it to dissolve and
carry out of the system the poisonous
and WORKOUT material of the body, after
1t has served its purpose. Water forms
a circulating medium for carrying sub
stances back and forth in the system,
conveying nourishment to the various
parts of the body, bringing back the
used-up material and carrying it out by
way of the excretory ducts.
The amount of water daily required is
from two to three pints. In very hot
weather a larger amount is needed, as
much water is lost by p~erspiration. If
ones diet consists largely of the juices
of fruits, the quantity of water may be
considerably diminished.

Delicate Continuance.

Delicate vibrations too slow to pro-
duce sound-that is, having a rate of
less than 16 per second-are made
audible by a new apparatus. A
ten-pound weight, having a small car
bon plate cemented vertically to it's
side. is suspended from the arm of a
&andard by a stout rubber band, and
, carbon block Is placed on the floor
or other vibrating body, with a slender
graphite pencil resting on 1t and lean
ing against the carbon plate. The car
bon block and carbon plate are con-
nected with a telephone in an electric
circuit. When the apparatus is placed
on a wood floor, the heart beat of a
person standing near produces an
audible vibration in the telephone, as
do also delicate tremors and distant
vibrations from any source.-Science.

Justice.

Some years ago an Ohio court was the
scene of many amusing incidents. The
Judge was a man from Connecticut, who
retained the New England speech and
other characteristics which had been his
birthright. He declared that there were
mo frills" about his court, but there
were some a~ppurtenances without which
he. evidently felt it impossible to admin
lister justice in a wise and temperate way.
One morning an eager petitioner was de-
manding the settlement of a certain mat
ter then and there, but while he pleaded,
the judge, with a disturbed face, rum
mayed among the papers on his table.
Hold ont" he cried, at last. This
court has lost her pencil, and you might
just as well wait till she finds it if you
want her fairly to take in what you're
saying."-Youth's Companion.

The Shrubville Clarion has an editor
who tries never to let the grass grow I'M
der his feet. His celebrity helps him to
acquire news, but it is also the cause of
an occasional paragraph like the fol-
lowing, taken from a recent issue:
Last week we gave the particulars of
a devastating fire in the town of Jenkins,
with the number and names of the VIC
tins. We now wish to correct a few mac
curacies such as will sometimes find
their way into the first report of any ca
tastrophe. There were no victims, for
the conf1agration was checked before it
actually took place. We may also add
that the fire was not in Jenkins, but in
the town of Scranton."-Youth's Com
panion.
