The Way to Take Life.

! smile at stupid men who cry
That life is out of gear,
Who go about with frowa and sigh
And faces full of fear:
For I've had sorrows OF my own
As dread as any ever known:
But when ! feel inclined to groan-
Why then I fly to dreamland.
Where happy visions throng.
Where souls are bright and hearts are
light.
And life is like a song.
I only strive to CLEAN the sweet.
Forgetful of the cares
As farmera harvest but the wheat.
And thrust aside the tares
And dark or sunny be the day,
l store for memory something. gay.
And when grief comes across my way
Why then I'm of to dreamland.
Where happy visions throng.
Where souls are bright and hearts are
light.
And life Is like a song.

Efforts to Ascertain Wanesrines OF
These Birds.
At. Rossitten. in Eastern Prussia.
ThfEe numbers of crows and rocks are
caught In nets every year during the
two migration seasons. says Nature.
The director of the station OF the Ger.
man Ornlthological Society at Rossit-
ten proposes to try curious expert
ment with these birds. Small metal
rings bearing number and date will
he attached to- one foot OF each OF
them. after which they will be liber-
ated and permitted to proceed upon
Il. cir own paths of migration. Notices
have been sent all over Germany re-
questing that when any of these birds
are shot the foot and the ring at.
tached to it may be returned to the di.
rector of the Vogelwarte at Rossitten.
1t Is quite possible that some of them
may stray even as far as the shores OF
Great Britain. and If this should hap
pen 1t Is hoped that the directors re-
quest may be attended to. An accurate
record will be kept at Rossitten Of the
dates of the liberation of every bird
and of the locality whence its foot is
returned and it is expected that some
interesting deductions will be made
from the information thus obtained.

corro.Ion BY se. water.

The corrosion of metals by sea
water has been investigated by a Ger
man engineer named Diegel. Alloys
OF copper and nickel are not very
readily corroded and are rendered
more immune by adjacent masses OF
copper alloys, iron or copper, these
protectors being then more rapidly
corroded. Copper-zinc alloys are cor
roded either by a uniform solution 'oi
the alloy from the surface or when
the zinc exceeds "a per cent by a
teaching out OF the latter. but by the
addition Of Is per cent nickel this
action IL prevented.

Tying to Account For II.

1t is stated that there are more
suicides Monday than any other day.
but no attempt IL made to give a rea-
son for this fact. Somebody points
out that Monday is usually wash day,
and 1t should be added that a boiled
dinner usually goes with 1t. The
clothes line may, perhaps. suggest the
fatal rope. and the clothes pin nasal
asphyxiation. There are blue Mon
days. too. and 1t may be possible that
the suicides have their own peculiar
ideas about starting the week rilut.-

This. beautiful, soft, lustrous taffeta
that comes to US thus highly endorsed,
is called Clifton Bond Suiting,
adaptable to the prevailing modes for
costumes for any occasion, and in the
one depicted here one sees an ideal
gown for visiting, theatre or church

each side of the center from neck to
elbow exemplify one of the most
popular and becoming modes, and in
the rich tobacco brown here shown,

and lapel, we see gown that reaches
the acme of simple elegance and
taste.

Christmas which came last year On
Friday this year falls on Sunday this
being due to the fact that 1904 is LEAP
year. According to general custom
when public holiday comes on Sun
day it is observed on Monday and that
is what will be done here in Grand
Rapids this year, the stores being
closed and business generally sus-
pended next Monday. While the
public holiday will be Monday many
people will observe Christmas day on
Sunday at their home, having the
distribution of gifts at that time and
reserving Monday for skating and
other holiday joys. The arrangement
of the different Sunday schools fol
their Christmas celebration is not
known at this writing. In most OF
the Grand Rapids churches there is
always special music the Sunday
before Christmas. There will be a
special cause for exercises of this
character this year in that Christmas
actually comes ON Sunday. Most the
choirs in the city are already rehears-
ing for Christmas service.
The hustle in the business world
preparatory to the coming of Christ
mas is now in full swing and judging
by the experience of former years,
these will be busy days from now until
