Some etiquette authority was asked
'sHow should a man deal with a vulgar,
rude woman? and the reply given is:
There is no time when man can
or should quarrel with woman. 1t Is

| The feature of this years trade in
furnishing summer cottages. say the
furniture dealers, is the passion for
| simplicity. In the selection of summer
furnishings of all sorts, the home
maker seems to aim at primeval SIM
plicity and sensibleness of living. This
may be due. says an exchange, to the
| fact that city folk live a strenuous
winter life and really hunger for quiet
in summer; or it may be due to one of
those unwritten mandates of Dame
Fashion. who invades even the furni-
ture world.

| In his baccalaureate sermon to the
| graduating class at Princeton Univer-
| sity. President Woodrow Wilson held
that wealth has not debauched the
age" He is quoted as saying in part:
"The great world of action which lies
beyond graduation is made mean or
noble by the same things that have
heartened or dismayed us while we
were yet undergraduates.
There is only one thing that sets a
man forever free from defeat, and that
is a true knowledge of his own heart
and it's destiny. He can be quit of fail
ure only II he love and seek the right
things. And the right thing to love is
not himself, but the inspiration of all
the best instincts and movements of
his soul; the causes gthat cleanse and
better the world:
The vast accumulation of wealth,
the vast material equipment of civiliza-
tion in our day, ought not to mislead
us into supposing that this is an age
gross and material beyond precedent;
more debauched by greed or intoxica-
ed by material power than any that
has gone before it. 1t is not. Though
its spiritual impulses and conceptions
and undertakings do not run SO exclu-
sively along the old, hallowed and IA
u miliar ways of religion as in some not
ed days gone by, the spirit of man has
waxed as strong in our time as has his
hand, and has given Itself to works as
mighty and as influential"
Scientific investigation, says an ex-
change, has discovered that that trou-

by short intervals of exposure to in

! M. Raoul Pictet, a Swiss gentleman
, was experimenting with low tempera-
, ture. He had produced an artificial
, temperature in a sort OF pit which
. caused the thermometer to sink to 14(
. or $50 degrees below zero. Among
other experiments he exposed himself
for a brief interval to this temperature
by lowering himself into the pit. Oh
| emerging he found himself intensely
; hungry and ate freely. The process!
; was repeated several times, and as ;
i result he found himself cured of chronic
indigestion, from which he had suf
fered for years.
