Dead Mans Wishes Ignored.

In a plain deal coffin, carried on a
BRIDESMAIDS cart, the body of Dmitri
Ragoskin, aged 104, was recently
borne to it's last rest at Kharkoff, Rus
STA. Very different was the funeral
planned by Ragoskin for himself. For
the last seventy years every penny he
saved went into fund, which was to
remain intact until the day of his
death in order to provide him with the
most magnificent funeral possible.
When he felt old age creeping on him
he set about making his own coffin,
carving and inlaying it regardless Of
expense In the sides were two pan
els of beaten gold, supplied by st.
Petersburg firm, and on the top were
the monomaniac's initials set in tur-
quoises and small pearls. When Rago-
skin died his relatives sold the gor-
geous coffin and silken shrouds and di
vided among themselves the $4,000
accumulated for the funeral. The To-
cal undertakers are up in arms.

Oddly of the Congo Valley.

A popularity of the southern part
OF the Congo valley is tina. one side
Of the hills is usually bare, the other
covered with thick vegetation. This
difference is due to the fact that one
side gets little moisture while the
other is dampened by fogs blown
against it every morning. The natives
often shave off the hair from one side
Of their heads, the effect presenting
the same appearance as the hills of
the country.

Roadway in his quest
In 1S41, shortly after its discovery
by Mr.. Sibley, che cross was stored
in a small building that stood back OF
the Charles river national bank, near
the college, The building was burned
in 1916, and the cross was found in
its ashes, unchanged except for slight
pitting caused by the heat
Taken in hand by Mr.. Justin Winsor,
then librarian, the cross was given
a heavy coat Of gliding, such as itphad
borne originally, and was fixed to the
east wall of Gore hall, in the library
building. Here it remained for many
years, until alterations made its re-
moval from the wall necessary.
1t was next stored in the cellar OF
the library, remaining there until the
early SOS, when it was firmly fixed in
the stone peak of the gable over the
entrance to the library.
The cross is made of soft iron and
appears to have been the work of a
Louisburg blacksmith. the workman
ship being rougher than would have
been produced by the skilled iron
mongers of France.
The cross to-day weighs about ten
pounds. It's cross-piece is PIX inches
long, terminating in fleur-de-lis,
which are Az inches wide by inches
long. An ornament of similar proper
tions caps the upright or standard,
the total length of which at present is
20 inches. Before broken off the cross
was about 40 inches long. Both cross
piece and standard are l inch wide
and Il inch thick.

WHY WE GROW OLD.
Sickness Is Result Of Ignorance and
Wrong Thinking.

We grow old because we do not
known enough to keep young, just as
we become sick and diseased because
we do not know enough to keep well,
says Orison SWEET Marden in Success.
Sickness is a result of ignorance and
wrong thinking. The time will come
when a man will no more harbor
thoughts that will make him weak or
sick than he would think of putting
his hands into fire. No man can be
sick If he always has right thoughts
and takes ordinary care of his body.
If he will think only youthful thoughts
he can maintain his youth far beyond
the usual period.
II you would "be young when old"
adopt the sundial's motto: II record
none but hours of sunshine" Never
mind the dark or Swallowed hours.
Forget the unpleasant, unhappy days
Remember only the days of rich ex-
periences, let the others drop into
oblivion.
1t is said that "long livers are great
hopers." If you keep your hope bright
in spite of discouragements and meet
all difficulties with a cheerful face, it
will be very difficult for age to trace
its burrows on your brow. There is
longevity in cheerfulness.

Sand Aids Digestion.

Sand as a digestive for a human
being, seems a curious idea, but it
was recommended in paper read be-
fore the Society for the Promotion of
Health. To quote from the journal:
What we all need" says the gentle
doctor, sis grit-the real grit that is
furnished by he silica in the sand. To
get that we must swallow little clean
sand every day with out meals. The
presence of the grit will assist in the
grinding process, and our food, in
stead of distressing us, will nourish
and cheer us. Six five-grain capsules
of pure sand should be taken with
each meal"

GOOD LOOKS AND CONCEIT.
Vanity Largely Matter of Sense OF
Humor.

Humor.
The mans Apollo Is generally a
comely specimen Of flesh and blood,
with blooming cheek and bright eye,
who is credit to his tailor. Women
admire more rugged type, or type
in which tinge of asceticism is COM
bined with intense nervous strength:
or the picturesque may take their
fancy. Roughly, the good-looking are
vain or not in proportion as they are
lowered with the saving salt of hui
NOR.
So with the women. The pretty
dolls may be vain; the nobler and
more interesting beauties are prob
ably less so than their palmer sisters;
for the simple reason that their physi-
cal charms are undoubted, and have
been, tacitly acknowledged ever since
they can remember They shine with
out effort, and their attention is pre-
occupied with other things.-London

OLD CROSS OF LoUIsBURo.
interesting Relic Owned by Harvard
University.

In a closet in the library at Har-
ward college is stored one of the few
existing relics of the campaign of Sir
William Pepperell and his New Eng
landers against the French stronghold
of Louisburg, in the year 1745.
This relic is an iron cross that is be-
lieved to have adorned a church in
Louisburg. How it came into the pos
session of Harvard is not known at
this time, as no antiquarian has ever
taken the trouble, it appears. TO estab-

About sixty years ago Mr.. John l..
Sibley, then librarian at Harvard,
found the cross in lot of discarded
articles stored in one Of the smaller
buildings on the college grounds. 1t
was marked with tag on which was
written the statement that the cross
was brought from Louisburg by one of
Pepperells soldiers. Mr.. Sibley at
