A New Half Fare Rule.

A novel and somewhat scien- tiic methed has recently been devised for the railways of Switzerland owned by the gov ernment to determine the half limit for children. Instead of an age limit, which has been the custom hitherto, a standard of height IS to be employed and 8 gauge and scale will be placed at each ticket office so that the agent can tell at a glance Wheth< CT the child requires 8 full fare. It is assumed that this is an eQui- table method of doing away with considerable imposition on the railroads while at the same time children of small size who are above the legal age would be eorrespondingly benefited Harper's Weekly.

An Honest Woman.

One evening dumpy little woman with solemn eyes, hold ing by the hand two dumpy little boys, also with solemn eyes, came to the box office of a thea tre where a western variety troupe were playing. Handing in quarter, she asked meekly for the best seat she could get for the money. As the ticket man handed out the desired piece of cardboard his eye fell upon the upturned faces of the chil- dren.
 "These children must have tickets if you take them in, :" he said.
 A distressed look came into the little woman's eyes, and she answered;
 "Oh, no, mister. 1 never pay for them. 1 wouldn't bring them along only their father works at nights and there is no one to leave them with. 1 never can spare more than a quarter, and l just love to see a show. We don't cheat you any. mister, for they both go sound asleep just as soon as they get into seat, and don't see a single bit of the show"
 The argument, or the anxious eyes, convinced the ticket man, and the two children were al. lowed to go in.
 Toward the end of the second act one of the ushers came out of the auditorium and handed a twenty -hve-cent piece to the tick ct man.
 Whats this?" demanded he.
 Don't know," drawfed the usher. GA little chunk of woman just now beckoned to me clear across the house and said one of her kids had wakened up and was looking at the show and that 1 should bring you out this quarter. "

Cast Oat Fear.

Cast Otft Fear.
 ". c. Patterson sends the ed itor of the Times a paper, writ ten by his friend, pr. Charles Hoyt, of Chillicothe, O., who is visiting in Los Angeles. 1t is entitled "Mental Attitudes, Their Influence Upon Health, Success and Happiness" !" It contains some good stuff. Dr.. Hoyt is a physician of the regu- lar school, but evidently a liber- al minded man. He emphasizes the great importance of correct mental attitudes and their infiu- ence upon health and disease. Also he urges-as the editor has frequently urged-that we should cast out fear. This IS the exact opposite of the teachings we usually get from the pulpit, the effect of which is to keep us con- stantly in an element of fear fear of the Lord, fear of eternal punishment, and SO forth.

What Hallow's Eve Or Halloween,
as it is popularity called, means, or
how it came by its extravagant and
fantastic customs, is unknown. 1t is
the vigil of Hallowmas Or All Saints
Day, yet it has no Christian meaning,
but on the contrary, is essentially
paganistic. Authorities agree in plac-
ing it under pagan festivals, and alb
solutely separate it from any Christian
anniversary. The most ancient of
Halloween customs was the building of
huge bonfire by each household: on
that night spirits were supposed to
walk the earth, strange dreams fore
told prosperity or adversely, lovers
were tested by various charms, future
marriages were arranged, and the
wilder the superstitions the more cur
rent its belief.

popular superstitions attaching to it

Imagination might run riot aud any
ceremony, however extravagant, may

We are all of us the better off for an
occasional frolic, and Halloween, with
its quaint customs and mystic tricks,
affords the members of the Eastern
Star an opportunity of giving all such
innocent merriment. Therefore
