$500 to $3.50 pair, would cure various dis

They must lave some very delight
full little girls in England, to judge by
the anecdotes about them that creep
into the press from time to time. Here
Is one of six.year-old which the Gen.
tlewoinan recounts with enjoyment:
"She was riding with her aunt outside
one of the Hastings electric trans. AS
it was proceeding at II rather good pace
down steep declivlty the aunt was
obviously n little nervous. The child,
observing this, looked up sweetly into
her aunt's face and said: Are you
frightened. auntie? Because you can
take hold of my hand IL you are!"
On another occasion this little girls
grandmother had the misfortune to
have the leg of the sofa on which she
was reclining give way, and, although
1t was repaired 1t gave way second
time. Thereupon chair sufficiently
firm to support the aged and rather in
firm woman was bought, fact which
her grandchild remembered in her
prayers that evening as follows: II
thank thee, good Lord, for having at
last found chair that my dear gran
ME can sit down upon"

How to Help Yourself.

Some time ago the head of large
wholesale shoe business was in need
of an advertising manager. If he had
followed the usual practice he would
have gone outside the house and hired
a professional "ad. manager" But he
had q notion that the man who knew
enough about salesmanshlp and about
his special goods to sell them on the
road could make sentiment" for those
same goods by the use of printers ink.
Therefore be put one of his crack sales
men into the position and now pays
him $4,000 a year. And the man has
"made good" in great shape.
Nor does this merchant stop with
promoting men from the ranks of his
organization. If salesman in his
house makes good showing he fas-
tens him to the firm still tighter by
selling to him shares of good dividend
paying stock.
He knows one thing that too few
men In business do know-that man
can best help himself by helping 9th
ers!-Saturda Evening Post.

LIFE ON EASY STREET.
u Ii nm Ideal Place and Worth striv-
ing For.

There are more strong limbed, clear
headed, brave hearted people living on
Easy street than anywhere else in this
broad land, and their prime condition
is the natural consequence of living
there, for although you may not have
thought of it, there Is close relation
ship existing between good health and
the consciousness of getting on well in
life. You can see this for yourself If
you will note how strong man droops,
like frost nipped flower, who by some
mistake loses his position, his posses
slons or the esteem of his fellows, one
or all. Shylock made hard bargain
with a borrower, and in his effort to
foreclose the bond lost his cash and
won the contempt and scorn Of all men.
Mental disturbance followed, including
physical i'll being and, staggering away
from the judges bench and clutching
at the air, he cried, Il am not WELL"
But you need not go back so far to get
an Illustration.
And on the other hand you can see
by observing for yourself how the gain,
on Easy street will make sick man
well, quicken dying hopes into life and
change the water of sorrow into the
wine Of joy. Recent literature has re-
minded us how happy turn in the
tide of the affairs of Josiah Wedgwood.
afterward to become the worlds great
pioneer pottery artist and inventor,
raised him from an invalid's couch and
started him upon the road to affluence
and distinction among Englands in
dustrial princes. Similarly Mary Woll-
stonecraft, afterward the mother of the
poet Shelley's wife, i'll from neglect and
discouraged by hardships, was, by the
success of her modest ventures in lit
erature, heartened to undertake her
great life work, which soon yielded her
handsome royalty.
Read the story of Angelina, who
lives on East street and has no desire
to move and lose her clear headedness
and her health. She was engaged to
be married to Allan. He was a clerk
receiving S12 per week, and she earned
$S5 month teaching school, After a
few years Angelina explained her con-
tinued spinsterhood by saying that she
had given Allan time to develop into
a larger money getter, and he had not
done it, so she decided against the ad-
Visibility Of exchanging an $S5
month position for a $50 month hus-
band 1t is quite true that when pov-
erty comes in at the door love flies out
Of the window, but it is not because
the Angelinas are without sentiment.
1t is because love cannot feed on in
competency and thrives best on Easy
street.
So the Importance of everything that
will aid any one to get on in the world
Is established on sure foundation
the testimony Of facts. We do not ex-
alt mere money getting above those
qualities of head and heart which
make life worth living, but rather en-
phasize the honorable getting of it as
a conserver of them. And hence the
wisdom of living on Easy street-Cent

PENeUINs FEEDING.
The ChnnEe That Takes Place When
They Enter the Water.

The appearance of the keeper of the
penguns ut the ZOO, with his pail of
live gudgeon, Is the signal for sudden
and intense excitement in the cages.
The penguins wave their little fiippers
and waddle to the door. whence they
peer eagerly down the wooden steps
leading to the pool. The cormorant
eroaks and sways from side to side,
and the darters poise their snaky heads
and spread their batlike wings. At the
waters edge the penguins do not
launch themselves upon the surface
like other water fowl, but instantly
plunge beneath.
Once below water an astounding
change takes place. The slow, ungain-
ly bird Is transferred into n swift and
brilliant creature, beaded with globules
of quicksilver, where the air clings to
the close feathers, and flying through
the clear and waveless depths with ar
rowy speed and powers of turning far
greater than in any known form of
aerial flight The rapid and steady
strokes of the wings are exactly sim
ilar to those of the air birds, while its
feet float straight out level with the
body, unused for propulsion or even as
rudders ana as little needed in its prog
ress as those of n wild duck when on
the wing.
The twists and turns necessary to
follow the active little fish are made
wholly by the strokes of one wing and
the cessation of movement in the other,
and the fish are chased, caught and
swallowed without the slightest relax
alton of speed in submarine fight
which is quite as rapid as that of most
birds which take their prey In midair.
In less than two minutes some thirty
gudgeon are caught and swallowed be-
low water, the only appearance of the
birds on the surface being made by one
or two bounds from the depths, when
the head and shoulders leap above the
surface for second and then disap-
pear.
Any attempt to remain on the sur
face leads to ludicrous splashing and
confusion, for the submarine bird can
not float. 1t can only fly below the
surface. Immediately the meal is fin
ished both penguins scramble out of
the water and shuttle with round backs
and dropping wings back to their cage
to dry and digest.-London Spectator.
