Truth and Accuracy.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
When Sir Walter Scott was asked what
was the proper education for young man
he answered: TO learn to fish and to tell
the truth. 1t is possible that the complete
Of patience and to the development of the
reflective faculties but it is quite certain
that truth-telling is one Of the cornerstones
OF society and the basis Of all real charac-
ter. An ancient Swiss writer says of truth
without hyperbole:
The study of truth Is perpetually Joined
with the love of virtue; for there's no viz
tue which derives not its origin from truth;
has not it's beginning from lie. Truth IS
the foundation Of all knowledge and the
cement Of society"
We of the western world are wont to ar
rogate to ourselves the virtue of truth
telling. English and European writers con-
stanuy speak Of highly developed talents
IN mendacity and deception as oriental"
Some Of our merchants and our missionaries
who have had intimate dealings with he
Chinese-whOse business men make abso-
lutely no use of written bonds or engage
ments of any sort TO bind them to the per-
Torrance OF their obligations, but rely on
the word given, which is as sacredly kept
as any bond could be-may be inclined to
smile when the Anglo-SaxOn's merits as a
truth teller are eXtolled; but In general
way there is something to be said for the
westerner'S boast Due need may be given
to the character of the Chinese merchant,
but the fact remains that In the western
world, as Contradistinguished from the east,
more reverence is habitually paid to the
cause more depends on the practice OF truth
with US.

Live Ducks as Decoys.

From the Arkansas City Traveller.
J. F. Berger of Anthony who is an enthu-
siastic duck shooter. has secured two pairs
of domesticated nlallard ducks for decoys.
The ducks are taken to the hunting
grounds III small covered baskets To keep
them from flying when IN use light leath-
er strap with a buckled moose attached 20
long shore cord is placed about their
necks and weight or anchor tied to one
foot.
This, however, does not diminish their
ability TO swim, and when placed in the
water they go to the limit of their shore
cord. For results they make the old-faEh-
toned wooden decoys look like thirty cents.

There are some other towns situated here
and there along the line, and there are in
some places what are known boundary
stores, half on one side and half on the
other. Such stores were more common in
the past than now One-half of a building
for instance, might be in the province Of
Quebec and the other half in the state OF
Vermont. Behind one counter were shelves
of American goods and behind the other
great stores of Canadian wares. The Gus
toner paid his money and took his choice,
and the tariff laws were about as little re-
garded as are those of Moses IN mining
camp.
Such stores were also desirable resorts for
criminals, who, standing on one side of the
room, could snap their fingers at the officers
without requistion.
Where the Line Goes.
Our boundary with Canada winds in and
out at all sorts of angles for the first thou
sand miles or SO from the Atlantic. 1t
begins at the ocean and crooks and turns
around Maine, keeping pretty well away
from the st. Lawrence until it touches that
river at the northeastern edge of New York
1t runs with the river to Lake Ontario and
then winds its way through the middle OF
the Great Lakes until it reaches the land
again at the northeastern end of Minnesota
on Lake Superior. From here it winds
a little through the Rainy River country to
the Lake of the Woods and then takes an
almost straight shoot across the prairies
and the Rockies to Puget sound. We almost
had fight at one time over Puget sound
the British claiming the Island Of San Juan
which was afterward, by arbitration
awarded to US. Just how long the whole
boundary line Is l do not know Blu tit
must be considerably more than three thou
sand miles

The French Canadians.

Indeed, as far as blue blood is concerned.
about the purest in Canada flows through
the veins of the French Canadians. Many
of the old families of this class can trace
their ancestry back beyond the days of the
Mayfiower. They are descended from the
feudal nobility created here by the French
proud of their ancestry, but on the whole
are not as clannish or as exclusive as the
English, who have risen through money
making to social prominence,

EQUILIBRIUM.

Among the members of a fashionable
country club near Cincinnati is a di
minutive young man whose earnest
ambition it is Ito follow the hounds"
Unfortunately, however. the midget is
incapable of retaining his mount.
Soon after the start he invariably loses
his seat. and, of coure. his fun is over
for the day. Despite this tendency to
topple off, the diminutive one sticks to
the sport at the risk of his neck.
one day, during a conversation be-
tween several members of the club,
among whom was Nicholas Longworth,
some one referred to the distressing
habit of the small person. With a
smile OF affected sadness, Longworth
observed:
There's not the least hope for that
chap. He would fall off his horse if
he were a centaur!"

THE WORRIED WOMEN.

They say men must work and
women must weep; but alas, in
this too busy world women often
have to work and weep at the
same time. Their holidays are
too few and their work heavy
and monotonous. It makes them
nervous and irritable. The de-
pressed and worried woman loses
her appetite and grows thin and
feeble. Once in while she has
spells of palpitation and has to
lie up for day or two. If some
disease like influenza or malarial
fever happens to prevail she is
almost certain to have an attack
of it, and that often paves the
way for chronic troubles of the
throat, lungs and other organs:
and there is no saying what the
end may be. Let the tired and
overladen woman rest as much
