The report that the President re-
fused to permit picnic of the
poor children on the White House
grounds because colOrcd children
had been excluded when the mvi-
tations were sent out is another
newspaper "rake.' The real rca-
son is that the "little dears" do
nearly a thousand dollars damage
every Easter Monday, when they
are permitted TO roll eggs on the
White House Lawn, and the oni-
GERS at the White House thought
one such picnic u year was enough.

No Apology.

"Be men, said the doctor to his class
of bright eyed students, strong, self
controlled, manly men. Build your char
acter up to full measure, make it such
that others can rely upon it and not be
disappointed Don't be apologies for
men, nor men that need apologiziDg for.
Did you ever notice how many people
there are for whom their friends are con-
tinually having to make excuses"
"Thats his way; we always have to make
allowance FOR that" He is so quick
tempered that it often makes him un-
reasonable, but he is good hearted down
under it ALL You can count on him if
you take him in the right mood and so
on. charge you, boys, to be masters of
your moods, your tempers and your
ways. Never let them get so strong that
they shall represent you to the world,
that you shall be known by them rather
than by anything else that may be in
you. No one has right to do business
on the patience of his friends, or to ex-
pect those around him to excuse the
faults and weaknesses he can remedy.
what the world wants is the man who
has honestly made the best of himself
and who needs no apology"

A Sensible Mayor.

Mayor Kennedy, Of Butler is broad
minded and sensible man. When petit
toned by the Ministerial Association Of
that growing city to enforce the closing
Of confectionery and cigar stores on Sun
Jay he replied in the following spirited
aud sane manner.
"PIease be consistent. Why ask the
dispenser Of soda water OF a toby to re-
linquish his trade, while the Mayor Of
Greater Butler keeps open house with
fine lot of horses at the service of the
public seven days week? Why ask the
man with biz rent on Main street, who
has hard enough time getting along,
to cut down his sales and leave the
Standard Steel Car Company alone?
Why is supplying means to quench the
public thirst not matter of public good
when the Butler street railway lines are
ready to take you to the park to cool?
"There are also within the borough
limits oil men working more than II
hours;a day who hardly know what Sun
day is or when it comes. and yet some
oil magnates are called philanthropists.
As Mayor | will enforce the laws in
existance, but will not make new ones
that will lead the outside world to think
am fossil or belong to past genera
ton. If action must be taken on the
Sunday question, and that action the
closing OF the soda water stores, the
Ministerial Association is referred TO the
District Attorney for aid in the cause"

A Ghost Test.

When you think you see a ghost,
how can you tell whether it really Is
a ghost or not? A recent writer gives
the following scientific method: I'VE
assume that person sees an appari-
ton. It may be objective-i. e.. having
existence outside the observers mind
or merely a creature of a disordered
brain, subjective. The seer, while look
ing at the vision with both his eyes.
gently depresses one eyeball WITH his
forefnger from outside the top eyelid,
so causing a squint. If objective,
whether bogus or not, two outlines of
the ghost will be seen, but one, of
course, If it be subjective. One may
prove this by trial any time with any
object, near or far. | mention this be-
cause Of the many nervous and brain

whom it would be better that they

The 900 mile trough Of Lake Erie lies
approximately in the direction of the
west to southwest winds which prevail
in that part Of the country. Thus the
lake offers an excellent opportunity for
studying the effects of the wind upon
a large body of inclosed water. and
very interesting these effects some
times prove. Rhythmic gusts produce
rocking motion and great blows from
the west or southwest sweep the liquid
body of the lake eastward and some
times cause rise of eight feet or more

AS soon as the maximum force of the
gale has passed the water swings back.
