The Mouth.

Teach your mouth to smile Cultivate its
charms Refuse 10 let it settle into hard, cynical
lines Give 1T the upift and serenity that speak
more plainly than words OF peace and strength. By
deliberate training the mouth can be made one of
the most telling. most attractive features Of per-
sonality.
1t is Ruskin who points out that in the human
race alone the mouth IS mark Of beauty and may
be made to convey a great deal OF expression even
though the lips are silent. Beginning with those
lower order Of creatures which can scarcely be said
to have mouths at all and running up the gamut of
beasts to dogs and horses which are about the most
highly educated of dumb Kin, the mouth Is
everywhere merely organ for taking i'm food and
making sounds. says the Philadelphia Bulletin. In
man alone it becomes a mark of beauty and a means
of expression. The curve Of a woman's lips can
express much. There Is the proud mouth, the cyni-
cal mouth, the sensual mouth, the sympathetic
mouth. the atfectionate mouth. the cruel mouth.
Lips that tremble tell more OF grief than many
a spoken word. Lips that smile can illuminate
whole household rs mode of expression the
mouth has ever been a telling factor.

christopher Columbus.

Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa. He
was eldest of four children.
His father was a wool comber Of all his studies
at school he was fondest of geography When he
was so years old he was tall, dignifed in bearing
with piercing blue eyes. the meantime Column
bus, in common with some learned men, had de-
cided that the eastern coast of Asia could be
reached by, sailing across the Atlantic. But sailors
were afraid to venture into the sea of darkness, as
they called it. and other difficulties stood in the
way. He had no money. He went with his plans
to Genoa and after sending his brother to England
he went back to Spain again. After pleading with
the king and queen for money to fit his ships out
they didn't seem to think that his plan would
amount to anything he left the palace very much
disheartened But the good bishops talked with the
king and queen and after Columbus had left the
palace they sent-a messenger after him. Columbus
was overioyed, and in q few months after Queen
Isabella had pawned her jewels. He started to fit
out his ships, the names being Santa Maria, Nina,
Pinta. 1t was a sad hour for the poor sailors when
they started Columbus steered for the Canares,
where he stopped over some weeks to fix one of his
vessels. At last, after voyage of ten or twelve
weeks, they reached land.
With tears in his eyes Columbus and his men
knet down and offered thanks to God. Columbus
made four more voyages. Men were very anxious
to go with him
But when they came back with neither silks or
spices the king was very angry and Columbus enc
mics increased. Several days afterward he died of
broken heart, ignorant of the greatness of his
own discovery ETHEL PATTON

AUNT BUsY's PRIZE CONTESTS.
Christopher Columbus.

Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy, in the year
of 1896 of poor parents. His father was wool
lombcr Columbus was the eldest of four sons.
He was a very ambitious boy. He would go to
the dock to listen to stories told by the sailors of
foreign ships 1t cannot be said that he was any
different from other boys of his age in this.
About this time the Turks conquered Ccnstan-
tinople SO that the countries of Europe could not
get their silks and satins or jewels from India.
Everybody wanted to attain honor by discovering
new route to India.
Columbus desired TO gain this honor by discover
ing new route to India. which he supposed he
could reach by going west on the Atlantic.
He first went to the king of his own country 10
get HELM for his enterprise. but he would not
grant him either men or ships. He said That the
world was not round. For if so the people on the
other side of the world would be walking in the air,
with their heads on the ground" "And 1t would
rain up instead of down
Columbus then went to King John of Portugal,
but he stole Columbus plans and sent him own
sailors out to try them. They came back and SAID
that terrible sea monsters out OF the sea and
went after them The king then refused to give
Columbus any aid.
Columbus then went to Spain. While on his way
he met the Queen Isabellas confessor, Father Juan
Perez. who said he would 90 with him to the camps
of the king and queen. After many difficulties the
queen pawned her jewels to raise the amount needed
to fit out his ships.
He sailed from Palas, Spain. in command of the
Santa Maria Pinta and the Nina, ships that we
would think small.
Near the end of the voyage the sailors became
nutinous and threatened to throw him overheard.
The oueen had offered prize of large sum of
money 20 the one who saw land first. Columbus also
offered scarlet robe trimmed with gold

Land" came from all the ships On landing Co
lunbus went down on his knees and thanked God
| for guiding him there. He named the island San
Salvador meaning Holy Savior. He coasted along
the coast of Cuba On a sandbank The Santa Ma
ria was wrecked The Pinta having deserted and
went back TO Spain. The Nina was the only ship
now, could not accommodate all the ships crew, 50
that forty had to stay here 1t was the first Spanish
settlement IL America.
Columbus with his crew went back to Spain.
On the way a storm arose. Columbus was afraid
that the ship might be lost so he took two cards
and wrote them all that he had discovered He
enclosed each in a large cake of wax. He put them
both III a barrel. One he addressed Isabella and
the other to Ferdinand One he threw into the sea
and the other he kept on board the ship. However,
he arrived III Spain III safety. He was received
with great honor
Columbus set sail on a second voyage in 1893,
this time with seventeen ships and fifteen hundred
They first sailed to the place where they left
the other colony. When they got there there was
colony to be seen. The fort and the guns all
were destroyed. Columbus then built the town lisa
bella. named after the queen. Columbus set sail
for Spain again. And afsar much trouble he ar
rived safe.
In May. HOS, with six vessels and 200 men. Co
lumbus again set said for America. He directed his
course more south this time He landed on the
island Of Trinidad. lie then went to the colony
and saw that it was not in good order He strug-
gled with the Indian and his men. At the end OF
four years he was sent back to Spain in chains.
The queen hastcned to break his letters and he
broke into tears at her feet
After an illness he went on fourth voyage in
1902. He was again sent back to Spain only to see
the queen his only protector, dying. He lived a
dreary life of a few months longer. He died on the
Doth of Nav the beautiful day of the Ascension.
He received the sacraments before he died As he
died he repeated these words: Into thy hands, 0
Lord, | deliver my spirit.
Columbus was good and holy man, 1neriting the
reverence of all of us who are now deriving the
benefits of his great discovery. There is society

How Determined.

Whether a boy shall go to college or not is, in
nine cases out of ten, determined by the financial
circumstances of his parents rather than by the
question, has he the brains and the talents that jus
tify giving him a university course? The money
of his father not the brains of the boy, predestine
him for a higher observation-disclosures Citizen.

Conditions at dO|dtR|d.

The inevitable has occurred at
Goldfield. The crowd is leaving and
tradesmen are panic stricken. That
does not mean that the camp is no
good. There seems to be no doubt
that it is great and rich mining re-
gion. The mob is merely moving on.
A correspondent writes from there as
follows: The town of Goldfeld is
experiencing its first dull period.
During the past eighteen months the
camp has been the Mecca toward
which thousands have turned their
faces, and there has hardly been day
In that time on which some big sale
has not been made. Now that dull
period has come the people do not
know what to make of it, and many
of them are becoming panic stricken.
Every man who leaves adds some
thing to the apparently alarming con-
dition, and there seems to be almost
panic to get safely from under.
Real estate has gone down below par,
stocks are dull, rentals have dropped
out of sight, and there are several
"closing-out sale'' signs to be seen
on the streets. The explanation is
simple enough. The camp has grown
in advance of the district, and now
that Bullfrog offers so many more en-
ticing propositions, there has begun
a stampede to the newer camp. 1t is
also noteworthy that a great many
hundreds of persons all over the
country have been deferred from COM
ing in here on account of the reports
that there we're epidemics of sickness
in Tonopah and Goldfield. In short.
there are hundreds going out and
practically none coming in.
