The Tip and Its Uses

In the interest of reform Andrew Carnegie has abolish
ed the custom of clipping among the servants of his
household at Skibo castle This is especially nervy
piece of business because in Europe, the giving of ps
has become social custom, and it is almost old and
as firmly entrenched society itself.
In Georgia an Anttpping society has been organized,
and is proposed to 100000 MEMBERS who will not
give clips" under any circumstances.
Until the feeling of berality that with prosper
ity be sed in mankind until those who in
the many walks of life where 'tips'' scattered,
can be made to feel that gift is degrading and immoral,
the "tp" will stay.
The path of the who travels, who holds up his
chin arrogany and refuses to recognize the usefulness
of the ''tip' is srewn with thorns Very likely he gets
all that he pays for The barber shaves him WE'LL the
porter breaks rule of the Pullman company; the waiter
fills his order.
But humanity wants than it pays for. It yeams
for the little comforts the extra dabs with the whisk
BROOM the extreme Difference that makes the chest SWELL
and forces the to believe that he is rather
portan parsonage after all. 1t wants soft pillow, with
out the trouble of asking for it, and expects the porter to
that the shade shuts out the glare of the at the
right time In other words the average traveller wants to
be taken of just he the only person the
train, the sole guest in the hotel He wants the help
to be interested in him.
So because he is gifted with horse sense he drops an
occasional quarter to small saaried woman; does
it in pleasant way, and gets big dividends out of the in
vestment
1t may be wrong, and exercise debasng effect on

and clipped, and it will last long after the is grow

The French Wait

In France each school has certain of money set
aside for the benefit of the poor cdsen. During the
months every child who is entitled to the privileges
of the outing is granted week vacation in the
try at the seaside The French republic pays for this out
ing. =
While in the country the boys taught to work They
learn to Dig to hoe to pull weeds and to chop wood The
little girls not neglected but taught the simpler
duties of the household They wash the Dishes dust the
furniture and perform other homey tasks.
This custom has existed since Napoleon s time It was
he who instituted the annual outing for poor children.
Three weeks in the country for children who have
grass growing; children who know not tree in the
open There little who have seen cow a
pig, live chicken.
Aside from the actual physical benefit to the little peo-
pie there an educational side to the custom which
but appeal to those who find it hard to find good in what
Napoleon has done.

mo shade. no shine. no fruit. no

Americans would add no freedom
from catarrh, which is SO aggravat-
ed during this month that it becomes
constantly Troublesome. There is
abundant proof that catarrh is con-
stitutional disease. 1t is related to
scrofula and consumption, being one
of the wasting diseases. Hoods
Sarsaparilla has shown that what is
capable of Graduating scrofula, COM
pletely cures catarrh, and taken in

STANLEY'S MEMORIAL
A HEAVY ONE.

In the church yard at Pirbright.
England. an imposing memorial has
been erected over the grave of Sir
Henry Morton Stanley. the famous
African explorer. 1t was Lady Stan
iey's wish that the monument should
consist of some great monolith un-
hewn by man. The work of finding
and erecting the stone was entrust-
ed to the Art Memorial company of
West Norwood. After many days
had been spent in a fruitless search
on Dartmoor, a large granite mono
18th was discovered on Frenchbeer
farm. This stone was found to con-.
treme length being IL feet, width four
feet, varying from two feet to two
feet six inches in thickness. 1t was
in a recumbent position, forming part
of a fence on the roadside; three
faces had been fully exposed for
many years.
The removal of the stone from
Dartmoor to Pirbright was not an
easy matter. The Devonshire roads
being steep and difficult. it was found
necessary to employ traction en-
CINE and wagon to convey 1t to the
railway at Moreton Hampstead. After
much labor the great stone, weigh
ing upwards of six tons, now stands
in Pirbright church yard. The words
of the inscription were chosen by
Lady Stanley, who wrote: II de-
sire simply his name. Henry Morton
Stanley. beneath 1t his great African
name, Bula Matari-the Rock Break
er. For epitaph, the single word
Africa and above all, the emblem
and assurance of life everlasting

Mike Fisher of the Tacomas and
Jim Morley of Los Angeles have
entered into an agreement whereby.
If the Angels win the second half of
the coast series and it becomes neces-
sary to play off with the Tigers for
the championship, both managers will
stand on the coaching line and wear
dress suits in which to coach. Nor
ley might know how to behave in
dress armor, but the nearest Fisher
ever came to such was when he wore
the dress uniform of a policeman
travelling an Oakland beat. And the
Oakland police wore "dickys" instead
of shirts and never knew what linen
cuff was like.

stepped the go with Charley Neary
at Seattle after the latter had trav-

he did himself great harm.

Lavigne at last In fact, Louie, 1
know. was getting the worst of every
deal In which Lavigne handled him.
But retreat just before match
is a bad thing for any boxer. Sym
pathy has always been with Louie
until that bad break and while he
may have strong excuse and one not
based on fear of his man, the public
generally looks on a gutter as bad
