NOTHING IS FORGOTTEN.
One Story That Illustrates the Te' nacitY of the Subjective
 Mind.

A year ays Chicago woman was wis iting in New York village. She went with her hostess to make a call on the next-door neighbor. The woman on whom she was calling incidentally men, ,ioned that she expected niece who vas just graduating at some college Her name was not mentioned. A few days later the Chicago woman left. On her way to the station she stopped next Goor to get parcel. It was handed to her by a young woman. That is all taere was to that end of the story.
 Che day lately the Chicago woman went on a lake trip. On the boat she met young woman from neighbor- ing state. Each thought the others face was familiar, but neither said any thing about it. Finally a common friend happened to mention Michi- gan summer resort to the Chicago wom- an. The Chicago woman had never been there, but had relatives who went there every year This led to men ton of the New York village. In & flash the Chicago woman knew that the girl with the familiar face was the one who gave her the parcel the day she left. The minute the name of the will ,age was mentioned to the girl she rec 0gnized the Chicago woman as the one to whom she had handed the parcel
 This is good example of what the hypnotists and 'suggestionists" call the subjective mind. IL illustrates very aptly the old saying that nothing is really forgotten, and that all impress slons Are indelibly engraved upon the mental retina. In this fact lies the ex- planation of many yagaries of the mind that on the face of things puzzle the scientists.-Chicago Inter Oceaa.

The Byrne System Business College Wi n the Greatest Stenographic Endurance Test Ever Proposed.

Test Ever Proposed.
 The Memphis Commercial Col
 lege of Memphis, Tenn, is member of this great chain o1 schools. Draughon's Practica Business College challenged the Byrne System Business Colleges, putting up $20O, that they did not have a single student in at tendance who could, with three months training, in the Byrne Simplifed Shorthand, write 100 words new matter for 40 consec- utive minutes, and read back ac- curateIy at the rate of 30 words per minute. This contest was held on the 18th inst. in the city of Tyler. Texas, before three judges selected from the promi- Inent business men of that city.
 Notwithstanding the fact that the U. $. civil service stenogra- phers' examination requires only a three consecutive minutes test. and the official court reporters examination a five minutes test, the Byrne System Business Col lege accepted and won this most enduring test of 40 consecutive minutes. They put up two of their young men, MT. J. B. Leigh of Huntsville, Texas, and MT. w. H. Brahaney of Tyler, Texas, who took the dictation consisting of 4,000 words, new matter, court reporting; 5000 words se- lected from a criminal case, 1000 from a civil case, and read their notes back at almost three times the rate of speed required.
 This demonstrates conclusively the wonderful superiority of the Byrne Simplifed Shorthand, and the stengraphic training given in the Byrne System Business Col leges. It is no wonder, with such stenographic feats as the above, that these colleges are enjoying such an excellent patronage. To any young person interested in a thorough, practical and complete course of Shorthand, Bookkeep- ing, or Telegraphy, we recom- mend that they write the Mem phis Commercial College, Dept. w, 46 N. Second St., Memphis, Tenn, for a copy of their large illustrated free catalogue.

Periodic Palms..

Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills are a most remarkable remedy for the relief of periodic pains, backache, nervous or sick head ache, or any of the distress ing aches and pains that cause women SO much suffering.
 As pain is weakening, and leaves the system in an ex- hausted condition, 1t is wrong to suffer a moment longer than necessary, and you should take the Anti-Pain Pills on first in- dication of an attack.
 1T taken as directed you may have entire confidence in their effectiveness, as we'll as in the fact that they will leave no dis agreeable after-effects.
 They contain no morphine, opium, chloral, cocaine or other dangerous drugs.
 "For a long time I have suffered greatly with spells of backache, that seem almost more than I can endure. These attacks come on every month. and last two or three days. have never been able to get anything that would give me much relief until be- began the use of Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pils, and they always relieve me in short time.

SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE"
A Powerful Play Splendidly Carried
Out.

1t is truly refreshing to sit through
u performance of the order of "Sol-
diers of Fortune" when 1t is present
ed by such men and women as White
Whittlesey, Virginia Brissac, Harry
Lewellyn, John Sainpolis and the
others of the Whittlesey cast. The
play is an excellent dramatization of
the story as written by Richard
Harding Davis and the characters
are well chosen, according to the
authors conception.
Soldiers of Fortune" is rich in
comedy of a high order, and it has
dramatic climaxes that won the house
But the audience last night did not
appreciate all that was done. One
of the most inspiring scenes in the
play is where Captain Stuart, of the
presidents body guard, refuses to
speak of his love for the wife of the
man he has sworn to protect, and
man with that of a Spaniard. The
scene was passed before a hesitating
and half-hearted round of applause
rippled over the room.
White Whittlesey is a magnificent
specimen of manhood and he tower
ed several inches above the tallest
man in his company, and is Just the
sort of man Mr. Davis describes in
his book. Mr.. Whittlesey came well
recommended, and he did not disap-
point.

coast and that it would more than
likely pass through Boise. The COM
pany is now grading for an extension
of the road from Casper to Lander,
the new town which is making a bid
for the location of the state capital
OF Wyoming. Mr.. Beardsley said 1t
was hardly reasonable that the COM
pany would stop in the interior of
Wyoming, but would push on west
ward through territory which could
furnish tonnage.
The fact that the Northwestern has
transferred one of its general agents
to Boise leads to the belief that there
is something more behind this move
than the mere soliciting of trade.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 14.-The
city is filling with delegates to the
sixteenth annual convention of the
United Mineworkers of America,
which will begin its sessions Monday
In Tomlinson hall. II is expected the
convention will be the largest In the
history of the order. During the last
year many new locals have been FORM
ed and locals organized within three
months of the date OF the convention
are entitled to representation.
1t Is not thought that the conyen-
ton this year will be of unusual i'm
portance. The contract that was made
with the operators last year was a
two-yeaf contract, hence the matter
of wages will not come up at the
meeting There is much routine
business to be transacted, however,
pertaining to internal affairs of the
organization. One of these matters of
importance to be considered and acted
upon is the proposition to change the
official organ of the United Nine
workers from a weekly to a monthly
paper. Secretary Wilson advises the
change, but the committee
on officers reports does not deem the
change advisable. The question will
be settled by the convention.
President John Mitchell, Vice-pres-
ident William Lewis, and Secretary
Treasurer w. b. Wilson will be re-
elected without opposition.

Farce Comedy Comes to the Frazer
January IL,


Laugh and the world laughs with
you" is as potent and powerful an
epigram as when first uttered. Even
the seething swirl of an election cam
pagn cannot down it for the speaker
who makes his audiences laugh is the
one who achieves the greatest popular
esteem; so 1t is with theatrical per-
formances. When the seasons the
atrical race has been run the judges
invariably say "the farce comedy has
It," thereby indicating first finish in
popular favor.

Rudolph and Adolph," of Broadhurst
& Currie, that will be seen at the Fra
ger on January II, has had this blue
ribbon of success pinned upon 1t for
three seasons past and starts in the
present season with the hallmark of
approval of both public and press
The story is simple and uninvolved
and much of the fun hangs upon the
question of mistaken identity.

Told by Missionaries in
the Orient

The old military class in Japan fur
nishes splendid material for the maxi
ing of Christians, and It is counted
fortunate for the churches, as we'll
as remarkable, that so many of this
class have accepted the God of the
Christians I'm lieu of the petty Daimi-
os who commanded them in life or
death prior to the new era.
An incident of the present war
with Russia shows how firmly has
been implanted the Christian faith
among the officers Of the army. The
story was told by a Japanese ex-
member of parliament, who spoke at
a service in the Presbyterian mission
church at Niigata. He was telling of
the great difference between the
spirit which actuates the Christians
in the Japanese army and the ordi-
nary soldier, whose creed is "shikata
ga naP (no help for it), and he
quoted from the last letter of Major
Akiyama, who died in battle a month
or two ago.
The officer wrote: There is to be
a general attack on Lao Yang. Our
company is to attack a fort about five
miles east of the city. There 1 am re-
solved to achieve an honorable death.
desire my family to rejoice. 1t is
my faith in God which enables me to
make this resolve. Without the
slightest regret or anxiety 1 go calm
ly into battle with none but feelings
of thankfulness that am enabled to
discharge my duty to my country.
Amen"

An interesting story of the cour-
tesy of the Japanese soldiers is told
by missionary of the Presbyterian
foreign board, located at Yokahoma.
Several years ago Mrs. Isabella Bird
Bishop. the well known traveller, was
on her way from Chemulpo to Seoul,
on a cold winter day. and when she
reached the halfway resting house,
was suffering severely from the cold.
To her dismay she found the guest
rooms of the house completely occu-
pied by a body of soldiers who were
also making the journey. No other
place of rest and refreshment was
available and she did not know what
she should do.
To her great surprise the soldiers
In the chief guest room at once vacat-
ed the place, and several of them
came forward to assist her to dis
mount. The act was entirely i'm
promptu, for no officer was with them
and no orders were given
A soldier spread his blanket on the
floor for Mrs. Bishop to rest upon,
and every care was taken to see that
she was not disturbed while having
her refreshment and rest.
When she was ready to continue
her journey soldiers brought her
horse and assisted her to remount.
She took some coins from her purse
and offered them to her benefactors.
but they were politely and firmly de-
clined. and all she could do was to
thank the men who had shown so
much kindness to a passing stranger.
The study of the language is al
ways a difficult part of the work of
the missionary, especially when he is
stationed in China or Japan, and it
is characteristic that when the Rev.
]. G. Dunlop, a Presbyterian mission
ary at Fukui, Japan, took his first
vacation in nine years. he should have
spent much of his time enlarging his
knowledge of the language.
He says: II spent the time, when
not swimming, making a determined
attack on the Japanese characters. II
studied early and late and came home
with a stock of 100 characters added
to about 700 which 1 had before the
summer The possession of these
1900 characters made me feel i'm
mensely richer than If 1 had $500. |
No miser ever gloated over his dol !
lars more than I have over that stock
in his head, one will recognize 9S per |
cent of the characters he meets in |
print"
