A Deadening Habit.

A faultfinding, criticising habit is fatal to all excellence. Nothing will strangle growth quicker than ten dency to hunt for flaws, to rejoice in the unlovely, like a hog which always has his nose in the mud and rarely looks up. The direction in which we looks indicates the life aim, and people who are always looking for something to criticize, for the crooked and the ugly, who are always suspicious, who invariably look at the worst side of others, are but giving the worli pie ture of themselves.
 This disposition to see the worst in- stead of the best grows on one very rapidly, until it ultimately strangles all that is beautiful and crushes out all that is good in himself. No matter how many times your confidence has been betrayed, do not allow yourself to sour, do not lose your faith in peo- pie. The bad are the exceptions; most people are honest and true and mean to do what is right.-O. S. Warden in Success Magazine.

WOMEN eAMsLERs OF YoRs.
Lord KenyOn's Threat Proof Prac- | tice Was Common 100 Years Ago.

Lord kenyOn's Threat PrOOf PraC~
 tice Was Common 100 Years Ago.
 However one may deplore the pres cnt craze for gambling among women, 1t can at least be urged in their favor that they do not indulge their love oc cards to anything like the same extent as did their sex century ago, when Lord Kenyon made his famous scath- Ing comments from the bench and threatened that any women convicted before him of public gaming "should certainly exhibit themselves in the pill lory, though they should be the first ladies in the land"
 Only short time before his lord ship made this severe threat three lead CTS of the world of fashion-ladies of high rank and moving in the most ex ated of social circles-had each been fined f50 for making their houses cen ters of gambling for high stakes, and it was stated at the time that there were hundreds of other great ladies whose wing-rooms were nothing less than gambling infernos, where tens of thousands of pounds were lost and won in single night and the floors of which, when dawn broke, were strewn ankle deep with cards.
 "There is scarcely house of any importance" wrote chronicler of the time, "the hostess of which has not her faro bank, and where the world of fashion, including royal princes and princesses, does not congregate daily to play for the highest stakes. It is notorious that many of these ladies add ten of thousands of pounds yearly to their pin money in this discredit- able fashion,"
 Nor was this encouragement of gambling by women any innovation, for a couple of generations earlier it was a common thing for ladies of rank to open gambling-houses for the entertainment of their aristocratic friends and the plenishing of their own purses-and this they did in defiance of the law.-Tit-Bits.

sEQUoYAH WAS A GENIUS.
Was Inventor of Alphabet and Call-
 ed "Amerlcan Cadmus."


 Sequoyah, for whom it has been sug- gested that the proposed new State be named, was genius of his day, and all Indians have agreed that his name should be perpetuated by giving 1t to the State, if separate statehood Is granted, says the Muskogee q. T) cor respondent of the St. Louis Globe-Dem- ocrat.
 Sequoyah was half German, and his German name was George Guess Ghiest. He was born In the old Chero- kee Nation, Georgia. He could neither read nor write, yet was the inventor of the Cherokee American alphabet, and, was styled among the Indians as the American "Cadmus." He was born about 1763 and died in 1S44, while in search of lost band of Cherokee h. dians in Mexico. He perfected the al- phabet in 1921, and since 1929 books and newspapers have been published in the Cherokee language. In 1922 he moved to the new Cherokee Nation, Indian Territory, and lived near where the town of Muldrow now stands, his trading post being Fort Smith, Ark, some of the old inhabitants of which still remember him.
 The Cherokee-American alphabet contains eighty-six characters, and is one of the wonders of the world, con- sidering the fact its originator was an illiterate Indian. The Indian mind is remarkable for it's association of ideas, and the idea of writing by Se- quoyah's method was at once asso- ciated with branding cattle, and to this day the words, writing, printing or branding are expressed in the Chero- kee tongue by the same word: De gah-la-tah-naah." Sequoyah carved the various characters out of the bark of trees, and to this fact 95 per cent of the Cherokees owe their ability to read and write.
 The Bible was translated into the Cherokee language and has been the means of teaching Christianity among these Indians. The Cherokee Advo- cate, established at Tahlequah in 1S44, is still in existence, and is the only newspaper of the kind in the world.

Case Diagnosed at Once.

One of America's greatest physi- clans was called to the bedside of grand dame of distinguished name and many millions, who is leader of American society. But now the grande dame groaned and grunted in her silk en bed like any washerwoman. The physician examined her carefully. Then he said:
 You must get up every morning at 6 o'clock. Take for breakfast cup of weak tea and two pieces of dry toast. From to II exercise, either walking or sweeping or dusting. At noon lunch on slice of cold meat, fil. tered water and stale bread. Don't sleep in the afternoon; exercise again. For dinner take nothing but little meat, vegetable and toast. No sweets, no wines, no social dissipation of any kind"
 The eyes of the grande dame flash. ed fire as she said:
 But doctor, do you comprehend my position? Do you know who I am?"
 Perfectly, madam" answered the physician. "You are an old woman with a sour stomach"

Two Sunsets Per Day.

There is only one place in the world where the sun sets twice daily, and that is at Leek, in Staffordshire. The reason of this is that jagged noun tain is situated to the west of the town, and in the evening the sun sets behind 1t and darkness comes on. Then the first sunset occurs, the gas lamps lit, and apparently night has set in. But it has not, for in the space of an hour or so the sun reappears again through the opening at the side of the mountain and daylight again appears. Artificial lights are extinguished and daylight again prevails, until the sun again descends below the opening, and the second sunset occurs and night comes to stay.

In Far Counties.

When the shower came up the artist, who was walking through New Hamp- shire on a sketching tour, sought shel- ter under tree, where he was soon joined by another wayfarer, man of middle age, who looked a sort of bet ter-class tramp, and indeed was one.
 The two entered into conversation, and it came out that the wayfarer was a harness-maker by vocation, but a rover by predilection.
 'Yes," he said, "I'm a rolling stone. I'm never happy in one place. I'm here today and gone tomorrow. There aint any fossil about me. Pm on the move all the time. The world is made to see, say, and Pm bound to see all I can of it."
 The artist began to think that he had fallen in with a modern Marco Polo, and by way of leading up to some interesting anecdotes of the anti podes, he remarked:
 You must have been quite travel. ler."
 "Well, that's about so," the man modestly replied. q reckon could find my way over New Hampshire with my eyes shut, and was once two months in Vermont"

James R. Keene Was n Good Loser.
 James R. Keene, the great Califor- mia millionaire, is coming East in a palace carp said somebody to Jay Gould, one summer morning in 1877. The master of financial tricks replied: Let him come; I'll send him back in a box car."
 The threat seemed likely to be car ried out when Keene tried, few years later, to corner wheat. Gould and Cammack attacked him; he was sold out by men who ought to have stood by him, and he saw his fortune literally melt away. But he never lost his nerve, and calmly said: T will walk this street in victory when those who have betrayed me to-day are dead or paupers,"-a prediction which has been fulfilled to a large extent-Suc- cess Magazine.

TRAINING A HUSBAND.

.s*+*+s*.s4.s.t**. s..saa.a.4.
 When Alvin Jones told his mother that he was going to be married she replied that she knew he would be un- happy, because no girl would humol his whims as his mother had. After the wedding was over, says the Chi cagO News, and her son and her new daughter were established in theft coZy home, Mrs. Jones maternal inter est was tinged with a fearful expec- tancy. To be sure, Alvin looked hap. py, but for all she knew he might be putting it on. May was sweet and lOvable, but her mother-in-law noted the firm curve in her chin and her calm eye, and waited for something to happen.
 Alvin is so fond of fried cabbage" said his mother one day, happening in as her daughter-in-law was preparing lunch.
 T know it," said May, sweetly. He has asked twice for it, but he doesn't get it. Such indigestible stuff is not good for him."
 Mrs. Jones went home and wept. She saw down a long vista of years her son treading his weary way un- cheered by his favorite vegetable. Her heart was hot within her.
 Did you ever have fried salt pork for breakfast? she inquired with seeming carelessness another day. AL win had been abnormally fond of 1t at home.
 Mercy, mol" said May. "That aw- ful greasy stuff! I believe Alvin did say something about it once, but l explained the dreadful things it did to ones system, and he has not mention ed it again. find that Alvin likes q lot of things which are very bad for him." she ended, thoughtfully.
 q must be going now" said Alvin's mother, in haste. She felt she could not stay another moment without beg ging this hard-hearted young creature to relent and make life pleasant for her poor, misunderstood son.
 When she dined with them she was surprised to find that Alvin had gain ed in weight, and looked better than he had when he had lived at home She noticed, too, that once when he had carelssly licked cigar ashes on the floor he rose the next minute and carefully brushed them up.
 q make so much extra work for May" he said, in explanation. You didn't train me very well, did you, mother?"
 Mrs. Jones was speeches. before this rank ingrattude. Just then May called her husband and Alvin hasten ed out where she was. He came back laughing, with his cap in one hand and in the other glove and whisk- broom.
 "I had slowed my cap behind the dust-pan," he said gaily to his wonder ing mother, "The whisk-broOm had left on the dining-room table and my glove on the hall floor. It keeps May busy making me put thing where they belong. realize now how horribly careless I've been all my life. How long do you think 1t will take you to train me into civilized being, my lady?" he ended, as May came into the room.
 II have hopes of you if keep up the discipline" she replied.
 Mrs. Jones senior is wondering if she really did not make a mistake in not using more firmness with Alvin when he was at home.

"And how do you intend to support my daughter?" asked the merchant of ths poor but proud young man who had just asked the fair maids hand.
 T intend to work, sir" he answered, his tone as naughty and confident as the merchants own.
 "At what do you propose to work" s1oered the angry father.
 Any graft, sir, that Is good enough to work and not bad enough to be found out," replied the intrepid youth.
 Touched to the heart, the merchant impulsively held out his hand to the young man. "She is yours, my boy" he cried in trembling tones.-Baltimore American.

Bad Bacteria
i ~ MILK
Caused Illness

Food Commissioner Duncan stated
this morning that II had practically
been determined that the cases OF sud
den illness, which occurred ut the st
Andrews PriOry and several other
places. were caused by the drinking OF
bad milk. All the cases. which mad
been examined had been traced to the
milk coming from q certain dairy.
Duncan had worked on the matter all
night and during the early hours this
morning.
Duncan explained that the trouble
with the milk In question was bacter-
biological and not chemical. The trou-
BILE might originate from cows 20.
Ing through a swamp, or something
like that. A very similar case had oc-
CURED In Philadelphia some time ago.
but, generally speaking. such cases
were rare.
The owners OF the dairy In question
could not be held to blame. The pres
ence OF the Objectionable bacteria In
the milk was not their fault, and could
not be foreseen. II could be regarded
as absolutely accidental. The owners
OF the dairy were exceedingly anxious
to put stop to the trouble. and were
assisting the Board Of Health In TAX
Ing the most stringent prevent meas
ures possible.
No analysis OF the milk was being
made, as the trouble could not be de-
termined chemically. but bacterioiog-
ical examination thereof would be
made.
