Houses to Order.
From Worlds Work.

From Worlds Work.
A short time ago New York firm under,
took an unusual contract. They agreed I'd
design and build house. to make and arr
range the furniture, to decorate the house
and to supply 1t with napery and bed linen,
glassware, china and kitchen utensils. They
carried out the contract. They even ems
gagged servants. Dinner was ready to be
served when the owner first stepped into
the completed house.
The house mentioned had been started by
an architect and the usual succession of
decorators, furnishers and other purveyors
was to follow. But the owner, who was O
semi-invalid, turned the whole contract over
to this firm. Though plans. drawings and
samples were shown to the owner, the
whole work was completed without his SUI
pervision, for he was absent.
The contract amounted to about 500 900,
and the result was entirely satisfactory:
Such details as harmonizing the coloring
of the china with the tone of the dining
room and attending to the positions and
the color of the pictures were carefully
worked out. The cost OF this undertaking
exactly matched the sum set aside for it.
The same firm moved a bank into tenn
porary quarters over Sunday, built a new
building, fitted 1t with vaults furniture and
furnishings of every kind. even to inkstands
and pen racks, and moved back the books.
records and other paraphernalia-agai
over Sunday-exactly thirty days later The
total cost Of this contract was $4,000.

To Keep Young.
From the Chicago News.


Keep in the sunlight; nothing beautiful
or sweet grows or ripens in the darkness.
Avoid fear in all its varied forms of ex,
preston. 1t is the greatest enemy of the
human race.
Avoid excuses of all kinds: they are In.
furious. The long life must be temperate,
regular life.
Don't live to eat, but eat to live. Many
of our Ills are due to overeating, to eating
the wrong things and to irregular eating.
Don't allow yourself to think on yout
birthday that you are year older and SO
much nearer the end.
Never look on the dark side; take sunny
views of everything; sunny thought drives
away the shadows.
Be child: live simply and naturally and
keep clear of entangling alliances and com.
plications Of all kinds.
Cultivate the spirit of contentment; all
discomfort and dissatisfaction bring age fur
rows prematurely to the face.
Form habit of throwing on before going
to bed at night all the cares aud anxfeties
Of the day-everything which Can possibly
cause mental wear and tear or deprive you
of rest.

DIAz, MAN OF DESTINY.
Relation Between His Life and the Date
Of Mexican Independence.

From the New York Sun.
IF ever man was a living proof that
our fates are predestined." said a mining
man from Mexico, cit is President Diaz
HE was born at IL o'clock at night on
September Is. That is the anniversary
moment of Mexican independence, although
September 16 is celebrated as the nationa!
holiday.
"The revolutionary conspirators had
agreed on September 18 for the outbreak
and were to open the ball at the ringing OF
bell on the plaza of Guanajuato. But
Hidalgo, the Mexican Washington, learned
that their plans were known. so he rang
the bell and started things going at IL
o'clock on September IL.
THAT was in 1910. Diaz was born Sep

generally known is that every one of his
many children, legitimate and illegitimate.
was born either on September Is or on the
anniversary of one of his big military or
political victories. 1 have it from menu

single exception to this rule.

dependence bell, which has been brought
up to the capital. That is the signal for
beginning the independence celebration.
''Diaz, you know. considers himself a
man of destiny. His life has been one
long fight against enemies, intrigues, se-
cret plots, open rebellion.
HE has beaten them all and established
a good government where there had been
only tyranny or chaos for 800 years They
say that he has grown Superstitious about
1t all, believing that he is under a lucky
star, and that he takes these condolences
of birth as a mark of heavenly favor"
