USELESSNESS OF WORRY

Don't waste your strength in worry. No matter whether the occasion for it is something possible, proba ble, or something that has actually occurred. The existence of such an clement always indicates something to be conquered or over come; something that requires a clear brain and close attention And worry clouds the brain and abstracts the attention.
 We worry about our work, our homes, our ia miles and our friends We worry because we have too , much to do and too little time, and we worry because we have too little to do and too much time We :, worry because we cannot do as we :. would like to, and we worry be- | cause we have not done as we ought to We worry in anticipa- ltion, and in retrospection We worry about the future and we worry over the past. We worry about something or nothing,-so only that we worry. We cripple our energies, hinder our progress, and destroy our happiness by worry. But there is not an aim or ; a purpose that it advances. There , is not sorrow that it ever frightened There is not regret that it ever 'lessened.
 .: Worry ties our hands and blunts our faculties. It renders us in capable of our best efforts. It engenders fear, and helps to create the very conditions that we would like~to avert.
 = There are no sex limitations in worry. It counts it's victims among men as well as women although it undoubtedly reaches its highest development among women. This, perhaps, Is not to be wondered at when the difference in training is considered. Women have made rapid strides during the past few years. but in many cases their pro gress has been in advance of their  preparation. They have assumed responsibilities before they were quite ready for them. They have found their way into nearly all of the gainful occupations; but in many cases they lack the confidence that comes of long training.
 But all women are not wage earners. And those who. lead sheltered lives are quite as suscept- ible to this warping influence as their salaried sisters. They find excuses for it in the petty annoy ances and hindrances of domestic life; but none are really adequate There is no good reason why any one should indulge in a state of mind which will interfere with either her happiness or her useful ness.
 The woman who worries about her work doubles her labor, and wears herself out with imaginary drugery more than with actual work. The same energy properly applied would accomplish all need ful tasks and leave a reasonable margin for recreation.
 Women of nervous tempera ments often lie awake nights going over the things scheduled for the next day, and dreading it's approach

THE MOON HEAT.

Many people suppose that moonlight
possesses great potency and has a won
-aerful influence over animate and
inanimate things on our planet. Such
persons should remember that moonlight
is only reflected sunlight and that the
quality and quantity OF the light thus re-
hectcd are not what is generally imag-
ined In fact. IL is a truth which has
often been demonstrated by the specu-
lative astronomers that IL would take
1900 full moons to afford an amount of
light equal TO that emitted by the sun,
and. furthermore. there Is only sky space
for 5000 such disks. Some heat comes
from moonlight. However. IL Is in guam
titles so small that II cannot be meas
ured by ordinary Instruments. Flam-
marion says that the amount of heat
emitted by a full moon while at its ze-
NTH cannot be more than one eight
thousandth OF the amount that the sun
supplies when standing on the meridian
on favorable day In July. Such being
the case, II Is really surprising that In
telligent people should consider that the
moon has such a wonderful influence"
over terrestrial affairs.

ONLY A REPRIEVE.

The formidable mutiny at Sveaborg, like the
lesser one at Cronstadt, has been crushed. The
rebels who remained alive after the slaughter have
surrendered and no doubt will speedily undergo
summary execution.
Perhaps this result was TO have been expected
The mutineers were practically in trap in their
stronghold, with no chance 10 procure supplies and
with the terrible fire of warships and other forts
pounding their cage.
Another revolt has failed to expand into
general revolution because il did not win TO its
support another branch Of the military service.
If the navy had refused to perform the bloody task
of batterng the rutineers into submission, there
would be far different story TO tell and conditions
would be much different from what they are today
in Russia.
Another repreve has been obtained by the
czar and his autocracy but it was by narrower
margin that they probably believe. That was
shown by the revolt at Cronstadt, for though sup
pressed, as that at Sveaborg, it was in a most
omnous place and proved that dsaffecton among
the troops may be looked for almost anywhere.
The volcano will break forth again, probably
with greater fury, just where, in the Rus
