blowing at the time and the lake was
covered with white caps, but this
only seemed to make the ride more
interesting. The party went to

and where the party visited the
mills of the company. The after
noon was very pleasantly spent and
all in the party were profuse in
thanks to their host and hostess.

Miss Stella Benhanl,
DON'T GET RUSTY.


Keep Your Moral, Mental and Phys
zeal Machinery Working.
The machine that lies idle is far
more liable to injury than the machine
that runs.
Air and dampness do more damage
than wear and tear. Let the machine
remain inactive awhile, and the coat
ing formed by the corrosion soon COW
ers the bright metal and the parts be-
come stiff and cranky.
A man neglects the working parts of
his body. Normally these parts should
be exercised. He INDUCES his members
in idleness. Whatever vitality and
working force they may have had
when in continued use, neglect causes
the machinery to run stifiiy. 1t is the
rust
A man may neglect to exercise his
working brain forces. He may have
ever so quick mind, but If he does
not use his mental machinery the rust
of idleness is soon over it.
A man may neglect to use the moral
forces that are in him. There is a
weakening somewhere The machine
lets down. And soon the parts are
rusted.
When the primary or the convention
or the ballot box, working parts of gov
eminent, are neglected the rust col
lects. The machinery works poorly. 1t
may break down.
Keep your body working without
friction by systematic exercise.
Keep your mind bright by using 1t.
Keep your soul clean by working it.
And SO for society nine-tenths of Its
evils are caused by the idleness of its
necessary working parts. = Chicago

MOURNING CUSTOMS.
Origin of the widows Cap and Black
Sleeve Bands.

~ NhS " mp anu bAACk
Sleeve Bands.
The customs of mourning as prac-
t1ced in various parts of the world
seem at first sight to have little rela-
ton with each other or with the in
ward grief which they are supposed
to typify. Yet by the exercise of lit
tie patience many resembiances may
be discovered among them. The wild
ow's cap, for example. dates back to
the days Of ancient Egypt Egyptian
men shaved the beard and head as a
token of mourning. The women, in
stead of cutting off the hair, concealed
it by close cap. The Romans, who
were as race clean shaven, shaved
the head in mourning and wore wig.
The black band on the Eleeve as a
sign Of mourning comes to us from the
days Of chivalry. The lady tied scarf
or napkin, as the handkerchief was
called, about the arm of her knight.
If he was killed in battle she wore the
band in memory Of him.
Black has so long been the color Of
grief in Anglo-Saxon countries that it
seems part Of the upside down civ
ilization of the east that Japan and
China wear white But no longer ago
than the time of Elizabeth the unfor-
tunate Mary of Scotland wore white
on the death Of Darnley. Even now
the hearse used for children Is white,
and in England the mourners at fu-
nerals Of young unmarried persons
wear hatbands and sashes of white.
A queer English custom is that Of
decorating the black hearse horses with
long false black tails. They attract no
more notice on street in Liverpool
than do the black nets used in this
country to cover the horses.
A great many sensible people protest
that wearing tokens of mourning is
barbaric custom that should be abol-
ished or greatly modified, but when
loss and grief actually come into the
individual life one discovers that there
is a strange, subtle fitness in gloomy
garments and that they answer to the
need of the soul for silence and sepa-
ration.

Ger In the brigade of guards was guilty

only other occupant Of the room' an

apologized for having inadvertently
broken one of the rules of the eiup'
The old gentleman replied. without
haste as follows: MY dear sir, pray
do not apologize. In the first place l
am sure you would not have smoked
had YOU known that it was prohlbited;
in the second, | should be the last per

Curious History of the Word "Vote."
How "RcticuIe" Cot Its Name.

Curious History of the Word "Vote."
How "RcticuIe" Cot Its Name.
Vote" is IL word with Il curious his
tory. To the Roman "votum" was a
solemn promise made to a deity. From
the solemn promise itself the meaning
of "yotum" gradually became the
prayer OF intense wish that aceompa-
MED the promise and then any intense
wish whatever So far the develop
ment proceeded in Latin, and vote"
passed into English with the same
sense. When Ben Jonson wrote Of
public votes to heaven lie meant not
mass meeting resolutions, but prayers.
Finally vote" acquired its present
meaning, the formal and emphatic ex-
preston Of a wish, while the old sense
remains with its double vow"
That openwork bag for shopping,
called a reticule, gets its name directly
from the Latin ''reticulum," little
net" Popularity, however, the word is
supposed to owe its existence to the
fact that when an Englishwoman visit
ed the first Paris exhibition with her
little bag in her hand the Parisians
cried "Ridiculew The Englishwoman,
misunderstanding the exclamation, is
said to have thought 1t the correct
translation of "little bag and return
ed to England calling it ''reticule."
Philologists claim that the phrase to
"sleep like top" comes from the
French "dormlr CONNIE une taupe," to
sleep like mole. 1t is said, too, that
Cinderellas slippers were not made Of
glass, but of war;" the old French
word for ermine, which in time became
corrupted into "verre," glass.-Chicago
