The Quality That Counts.

The great prizes of life do not fall to
the most brilliant, to the cleverest, TO
the shrewdest, to the most long headed
Or to the best educated, but to the most
level headed men, to the men of sound
est Judgment. When a man is wanted
for q responsible position his shrewd-
ness is not considered so important as
his sound judgment. Reliability Is
what is wanted. Can man stand
without being tripped, and, if he Is
thrown, can he land upon his feet?
Can he be depended upon, relied upon
under all circumstances, to do the right
thing, the sensible thing? Has the
man level head? Has he good horse
eense? Is he liable to fly off on
tangent or to ego off half cockedT Is
be "'faddyT Has he wheels in his
headp Does he lose his temper easily
or can he control himself? If be can
keep a level head under all circum-
stances, If he cannot be thrown off his
balance and is honest, he is the man
wanted.-Success.

Russian Army Oddities.

Many, indeed, are the curious GUS
toms connected with the Russian
army, says writer in London Jour
nal. For instance, none but giants are
allowed in the Preobrashensh body
guard regiment To the Ismallowski
regiment none but fair men are ad-
mitted, while a turned up nose is the
qualifying adornment of the Pawlow
guards. The Guards chasseurs, on the
other hand, are composed exclusively
of dark haired men. Then, too, the
distinction between officers of the
guards and those serving In line regi-
mentS is most marked, q guard lieu
tenant until recently taking precedence
over captain of the line Further
more the pay of infantry officers in line
regiments is ludicrously small. What
the Infantry private's lot is can better
be imagined than described.
Amador ledger., 1905-04-14
MutilatlOns.

That mutilation should ever have
been adopted as penalty by the Chris
tian church one finds it difficult to be-
lieve, yet the ecclesiastical authorities
inflicted it for comparatively trivial Of
fenses, and several councils emphatic
ally attempted to suppress it. Thus the
thirteenth canon of the council of Meri-
da, in $3.50, deprived bishops and priests
of the right Of mutilating the servants
Of the church. The sixth canon of the
council Of Toledo, in 675, while forbid
ding bishops to exercise exclusive ju-
risdiction in offenses involving the cap
ital penalty, also interdicted them from
ordering mutilation of the limbs, even
in the case of their own serfs, and or
dained that bishops violating this law
should be deposed, communicated
and denied the last rites of the church
when in articulo mortis. The eighteenth
canon of the council of Frankfort, in
794, forbade abbots to blind or mutt
late their monks whatever might be the
offense.-Pearson's Weekly.
Amador ledger., 1905-04-14
The Fishing Frog.

The fishing frog buries himself in the
mud and lies partly concealed in
weeds, where, with his huge mouth
open, he fishes for his dinner. On the
back of his head there are three spines,
the longest of which he bends forward
in front Of his mouth, gently swaying
1t in the water. At last it attracts a
young fish, which makes a spring for
the supposed worm, when-snap-th
mouth is closed and Mr.. Fishing Frog
has had his dinner. The archer fish
catches his dinner in quite different
way. Just out of his reach on the leaf
of q plant growing on the rivers brink
rests a fly, basking in the sunlight
Suddenly a little stream of water
strikes it; it loses it's balance and falls,
only to be caught by the cunning little
archer below.-Field and Stream.
Amador ledger., 1905-04-14
Tar and Feathers In lisa.

In England the penalty of tar and
feathers was introduced in 11S9, when
Richard l., before setting out for the
Holy Land, ordained, in order to pre-
serve the discipline of his fleet, that
whosoever should be convicted of theft
should first have his head shaved; that
boiling pitch should then be poured
upon 1t, and a cushion of feathers (de
la plume d'oreiller) shaken over 1t. He
was afterward to be put on shore at
the first place the ship touched at,
though, after a baptism of boiling
pitch, the poor wretch would have lit
tie life left in him. In modern times
the practice has found favor with the
populace as means of readily exc
cutting justice on an offender whom
the law perhaps shows no anxiety to
reach.-London Mail.

Hard to Please.

"The only perfectly beautiful wo-
man." said a we'll known sculptor,
must have been goddess. 1 never
saw a perfectly beautiful woman in
my life, nor even heard of the exist
ence of one. AS for Cleopatra, learned
Englishman has discovered in some an
cient gossip written on papyrus that
she had the foxy red hair and the
freckled skin of all the Ptolemy family
and was obliged to resort to hair dyes
and cosmetics to keep up her reputa-
tion for looks. But perhaps the sever
est shock to the feelings is to learn that
Mary, queen Of Scots, actually squint-
ed, aud that Nine. Du Barry wore a
set of false teeth"

peaeient 1dens of Korea.

According to the Korean idiom, it is
dishonoring to use thou or "he" OF
God. In speech Korean Christians are
often heard to use "Ken yang ban"
(that gentleman) in order to avoid the
Objectionable terms. Instead Of say
ing "He God says" they say "That
gentleman says" Then the Korean
language does not possess the article
and has not idiom to represent terms
like "faith," love-" grace" holi-
ness" justification" truth" and
eternal life."-St James Gazette.
