"MiIlions for Defense"

A prominent naval officer tells a story of the days just previous to the Spanish-American war, when Theodore Roosevelt was assistant Secretary of the Navy. One day MT. Roosevelt, as- sisted by Lieut.. Sharpe, had concluded certain negotiations looking to the pur- chase of vessels suitable for scout duty. To this end the two officials had expended about three million dol. lars of Uncle Sam's money.
 When the days work had been com pleted and the two were ready to leave the department, MT. Roosevelt observ- ed that 1t was raining.
 "Well, Sharpe" said MT. Roosevelt, i've can't walk home in this rain, espe- cially as neither of us has an um. brella. We'll take car; but as have but three cents in my pocket, you'll have to pay my fare"
 The lieutenant grinned.
 q haven't cent" he said.
 MT. Roosevelt burst into a loud laugh.
 "Well, never mind, old man," said he. "This only goes to show what an exceptional lot we Americans are. It isn't every country where two public servants could spend three million dol lars and not have cent in their pock- cts when they were through"

Teaching School in Persia.

Persian servants are always sum- moned and addressed by their masters as "children." When Mir. Wilfrid Spar row became tutor to the children of the royal family of Persia he was greatly amused by the daily customs of the little princes. He tells of his first day in the schoolroom:
 We were in the middle of lesson when Akbar Mir2a, the magnificent, laying down his pen and taking off his spectacles, complained of the heat. which was 105 degrees in the shade. "It is too hot, yes, sair," he said.
 I made no reply, whereupon he re- sumed his work; but in a moment he lifted up his voice once more. This time his tone was loud and imperious. "Bachaha" (chil0! he cried.
 To my amazement, in stepped the stately general, and stood in an atti. tude of grave humility at respect. full distance, his head bowed and his hands folded at the waist. "Ab-i- khmerdan" drinking water)! was Alb. kar's word. and smart tie sartip's &C., tion. Out he went. and back he came with silver teapot in his hand. Very solemnly and slowly he went the round of the class, and raising the spout to each thirsty little mouth in turn, waited in patient silence until the imperial thirst. had been quenched. While one little prince was being served his neighbor, eying the silver nipple, sucked his lips in anticipation of the refreshing draft. AS for me, it was nine to revel in the humor of the scene, which was followed soon after by an interlude in which our friend, the major, in full dress, was summoned by Bahram Mirza. the i'm perious, to clean his slate.
 These Interruptions tickled my sense of humor, undoubtedly, but they achieved a more useful end than that. They were the means of showing me that the first thing I should have to teach these youthful Kajars was not modern languages nor mathematics nor science, but rather the first principles of self-help, self-reliance, self-depend- ence.

Rheumatism in Utah

Frisco, Utah, May 2nd.-Thers is 8 great deal of Rheumatism in this and neighboring states and this painful disease has crippled many strong man and woman among and otherwise healthy people.
 Recently, however, there has been introduced into Utah remedy for Rheumatism which bids fair to stamp out this awfully painful complaint. The name of this new remedy is Dodd's Kidney Pills, and it has al- ready wrol g1t some wonderful cures. Right here in Frisco there is case of a Mir. Grace who had Rheumatism so bad in his feet that he could hardly walk. He tried many remedies ln vain but Dodd's Kidney Pills cnred him.
 His wife says five both had Kid ney Trouble and my husband had the Rheumatism so that he could hardly walk. We used Dodd's Kidney Pills with much benefit. We have tried many remedies, but none have done us so much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills" Similar reports come from all over the state and it would seem as if Rheumatism had at last been con- Quered.

Not to Be OutdOne.

A note of family pride was struck in the conversation between three small boys the other day. The parts played by their respective grandfath- CTS in the civil war were being de- picted by two of the boys in vivid colors. The career of each, it seemed, had been halted by confinement in Southern prisons, and it was on the latter fact that the lads laid partic- ular stress. The third youth, unable to match these recitals with any mill itary achievement of his own forbears, preserved an envious silence for while, and then, not to be outdone, said disparagingly: "What, that's not so much. My Uncle Bill was in jail a long time and he was never in the army at all"
