The Air and the Sun.

An old writer says, "When men
lived in houses of reed they had con-
stitutions of oak; when they lived in
houses of oak they had constitutions
Of reads" This is a very fine, pc
turesque description of the injury
which: may come to us from fine
houses too closely sealed to keep out
the fresh air and too heavily cur
tanned, preventing the entrance of
sunshine, which is almost or quite as
important as air. But tits not at all
necessary to have our fine houses
unhealthful, and it only requires in
telligence and thoughtfulness to rem
der a house of oak as promotent Of
health as a cabin. Fresh air will
come from a we'll ventilated oaken
house as well as through the open
cracks in q house Of reeds, and sun
light through a window in palace
as well as in a hovel. Healtk.

A Misappiied Word.

Everybody who has had expert
ence in carving knows that not only
are sharper knives required, but also
probably more skill and practice, to
carve duck fhan any other fowl.
Admiral Dewdy was guest at a din
ner table where his host had that
serious task to perform. AS the ad-
miral watched the almost desperate
endeavors of the carver to disinte-
CRATE the bird he smiled mildly. His
host happened to notice it and felt
bit piqued, as he was not in the
best of temper anyway.
"You appear to be amused at my
awkwardness, admiral" said he.
'Not at all, sir; not al ALL" was
the reply. ''I was only thinking why
the term duck was used as word of
endearment and, goose one of re-
proach,"

DO not do things just as everypody

do not cut much of figure with YOU
and that you will make your own

yourself in an original way. Orig

There is nothing else which will
kill the creative faculty and paralyze

to stop growing, become hopelessly

ness by going into their fathers
stores, factories or places of bust
ness, where everything was done in
the same old fashioned way and
precedents were followed in every
thing. They lost all expansiveness.,
lThere was no motive for reaching
out for the new and the original,
because their fathers would not
change, and I have seen these splen-

SURVEY STEAMER ENDEAvoR.
Originally Designed as Gunboat TO
Confederate Service.

The U. s. coast survey steamer En-
deavor which came into port Saturday
and went to anchor in the lower part of
the harbor, has coaled up preparatory to
sailing to resume her work of making sur
veys Of the navigable tributaries of the
Potomac about Its mouth but no day has
been fixed upon for the sailing. The En-
deavor Is one of the oldest vessels In the
coast survey service, but is still one of the
stanchest. She was built for confederate
gunboat during the war between the states
and was paid for, SO tradition says by con-
trlputlons from the women of the south.
AS compliment to the wife of the pres
ldent of the confederate states the vessel
was named the Lady Davis. but before she
was launched the United States forces cap
tured Norfolk and found the vessel on the
stocks.
Under the direction Of the United States
authorities the Lady Davis was completed
but was rechristened the General Jessups,
In honor of an army officer She was fitted
out for Gunboat and saw service on the
James river until the end of the war. At
Ter the war the vessel, with numbers of
other small craft, was disposed of at auc-
ton and was purchased by Fardy & Wood
all of Baltimore, who partially rebuilt her
IN 1867 she was purchased by the United
states coast and geodetic survey bureau
ana since that time has made SURVEYS in
every port and navigable stream on the
Atlantic coast. When her hull was opened
year or two ago when the vessel was
under repairs, 1t was found that her tim
pers were as sound as when put in her,
nearly half century ago and TODAY she Ia
sounder vessel than many a modern boat
not half her years. The Endeavor for the
past three years has been employed in
WORK on the Potomac, but 1t is understood
she Will finish 1t this summer
capt. Wainwright is in command of the
vessel.
