TIE WORD "CHAPEL."
1t Comes From latin and Originally
Meant Cope or Canopy.

1t Comes From Latin and Originally
Meant Cope or Canopy.
The Word "chapef' comes from the
low Latin capella, cope or canopy,
and was applied to a recess or chapel
attached 10 the altar.
Used originally of the place where
the cappa or cope of st. Martin was
preserved, the word CAME in the eighth
century to signify any sanctuary where
holy relics were kept and thence a con-
secrated building connected with a
church or cathedral. At this period
also domesti' oratories and places Of
worship for such corporate bodies as
colleges began to be called chapels.
Apart from its present day meaning,
rs applied to any place of worship
which is not parish church, such as
chapel of ease or nonconformist
chapel, the word denotes the ecclesi-
astical staff Of a sovereign, the sacred
Office recitcd by the pope with his
household and the working staff of
printing office because the first one in
England was set up by Caxton in
Westminster abbey.

A Serious Ofense.

Mr.. Banks had acquired a dictatorial
manner in his youth, and it had grown
with his years. When he gradually
became nearsighted, he refused to
wear glasses and held other people re-
sponsible for any difficulties into which
his failing sight led him. One day he
clutched by the coat sleeve a man who
was hurrying past him on the street.
'I want word with you, Mr..
Griggs," he said sharply. 81 will de-
tain you only moment"
my name is not Griggs. You have
made mistake" said the man.

Right and Left Handed.

1t is curious to notice the vagaries Of
humanity in cases where no hard and
fast line has been already drawn. Al
though most right handed persons put
on their coats left arm first, a consid-
cradle percentage thrust in the right
first. Soldiers fire from the right
shoulder, but sportsmen are found who
prefer the left. In working with a
spade a proportion Of right handed
men grasp the spade with the left
hand and push with the left foot and
right hand, though when using an ak

than was ever made anywhere at any
time by the state that has already a
reputation for making the best exhibits
of natural products in the world.
Even the state building is an exhibit.
Copied after the old Santa Barbara
mission it is typical of the state, and
suggests an interesting period in Cali
fornia's history. The quaint and un-
usual architecture induces comment,
and more and more the old mission
building is becoming one of the sights
of the fair. 1t is crowded with visitors
from morning till night, who find with
in its portals cordial greeting, taste
of California's hospitality. and facilities
for obtaining such information about
the state as their interest may demand.
The building is veritable Mecca for
Californians, who, after doing the fair,
assemble there to rest and refresh, and
to meet and greet others from home.

Raisins and Alcohol.

"By the way, speaking of raisins,"
said California grower, did you ever
know that they are great help to So
briefly? No: I do not mean that they
will cure one Of a taste for alcoholic
stimulants, but that they will enable
one to keep sober even when drinking
to a considerable extent. The raisins
absorb alcohol, and so, no matter how
much one drinks, If he will eat raislns
continually, not less than three or four
to each glass Of beer, for example, they
will prevent the alcohol from being

The Habit of Unhappine.s.

Most unhappy people have become
so by gradually forming a habit of
unhappiness, complaining about the
weather, finding fault with their food,
with crowded cars and with disagree
able companions or work. A habit of
complaining, of criticising, of fault
finding or grumbling over trifes, a
habit of looking for shadows, is a most
unfortunate habit to contract, especial
ly in early life, for after awhile the
victim becomes slave All of the i'm
pulses become perverted until the
tendency to pessimism, to cynicism, is
chronic.-Success.

THE STOPPING HABIT.
1t Is One of the Things That Make
Men Grow Old Quickly,


DR.. Madison ]. Taylor. giving gener-
al advice to the aged in the Popular
Science Monthly, says in effect that old
people do not stoop because they are
old, but they get old because they
stoop.
The stiffening of the tissues. which is
the sign and accompaniment of age, is
warded off by exercise. Self indulgence
in eating and drinking and in lazy
ways is tie sure road TO seniiity. II

Improvement in hearing. in vision, in

Persons who habitually maintain an
erect position in standing or sit1Ing are
stronger than those who slouch. A
person who stoops and allows the
shoulders to sag down and forward
and the ribs to fall back toward the
spine shortens the anteposterior diam
eter of the thorax anywhere from two
to five inches. The lungs, heart, great
vessels and other important structures
in the thorax cannot live, move and
have their proper being under such cir

Amethystine Cups.

The word amethyst means not intox-
icated or drunken, because the stone
was supposed to possess the virtue Of
preventing drunkenness, leaving the
wearer or drinker not intoxicated. For
this reason 1t was made into drinking
cups by the ancient Persians, but IN
fortunately tradition leaves us in doubt
as to whether it was this mispla' i
confidence or not that led to the G,s-
continuance Of the amethystine cup.
