A World-M Mystery.
Heed this, who storm when thunders fail

On the pale pilgrims way;
To whom God grants the greatest gift
Of all
He lives and dies each day.
One with Lies sunlight and embittered

Friend to black skies, or blue.
Joy with your living, weeps above your

And dies their deaths for you.
What recompense? The world

Scatters with thorns the sod,
Till, weary of its wounds. he casts his

On the great shores of God.

LITTLE WAlF PUT
UP STIFF FIGHT

A six-year-old Porto Riean waif fur
nlshed more excitement about the
police station at half past one O'Clock
this morning than has been seen there
in weeks. Jack" was at the desk
and Turnkey Billy Woods stood outside
looking for some kind of excitement
when from the neighborhood of King
and Nuuanu streets there came bowls
sufficient to make an ordinary police
man scent a riot. Soon a policeman
appeared. He was tugging away at a
small Porto Rican boy. The latter car
ried a big slice of watermelon and mid
his howls was biting large juicy
Jumps from the melon.
The boy could not say where he lived
or who his parents We're SO it was de-
cided to place rim in a cell where he
could secure rest and be safe until day
light. Then the trouble commenced. As
Woods grabbed him to show him' his
room" the little fellow started kick
ing and biting and made noise enough
to wake all the other prisoners. In the
Jail yard he tried to bite the turnkey
and falling in this broke away and
threw the watermelon at his captor.
Then Billy Woods acted quickly. He
grabbed the little fellow and landed
him on a platform in cell with a
native. As quickly as the noise had
started it eeased-the little fellow fell
asleep at once.

DON'T FIGHT
NERVOUSNESS

To argue with nervous anxiety, either
in ourselves or in others, is never help
full Arguing with nervous excitement
of any kind is Ike rubbing a sore. 1t
only irritates it, It does not take long
to argue excited or tired nerves into
infiamma ton, but it is long and diff
cult process to allay the Inflammation.
It is a sad fact that many people have
been argued into long. nervous illnesses
by. would-be kind friends, whose only
intention was TO argue them out of
illness. Even the kindest and most
disinterested friends are apt to lose pa
thence when they argue, and that, to
the tired brain which they are trying
to relieve is a greater irritant than they
realize. The radical cure for nervous
fear is to drop resistance to painful cir
cumstances or conditions. Resistance
is unwillingness to endure, and to drop
the resistance is to be strongly willing.
This vigorous Willingness is so abso-
lutely certain IN its happy effect, and it
is so impossible that il should fail, that
the resistant impulses seem to oppose
themselves TO liz with extreme energy.
1t is as if the resistance were conscious
imps. and as i their certainty of defeat
in the case OF their victims entire
Willingness reused them to do their
worst, and TO hold on to their only pos
sible means Of power with all the more

if met with quiet Willingness" brings
a defeat for the assailants, until. final
