To him who Is penetrated by true
principles even the briefest precept Is
sufficient, and common precept, to re-
mind him that he should be free from
grief and fear. For example, says
Homer:
Leaves-some the wind scatters on the
ground
So IL tho race Of men.
Leaves also are thy children, and
leaves, too, are they who cry out as If
they were worthy Of credit and bestow
their praise or, on the contrary, curse
or secretly blame and sneer, and leaves
la like manner are those who shall re-
celve and transmit mans fame to
aftertimes, for all such things as these
ARE produced In the season Of spring"
as the poet says. Then the wind casts
them down. Then the forest produces
other leaves In their places. But a
brief existence Is common to all things,
and yet thou avoidest and pursuest all
things as II they would be eternal. A
little time, and thou shalt close thy
eyes, and him who has attended thee
to thy grave another soon will lament
Marcus Aurelius.

Curious. Nesting Habits.

Many birds In their nesting habits
have accommodated themselves to the
advance OF civilization. Thus the barn
and cliff swallows, which once built
under overhanging cliffs and in caves,
now place their nests on the rafters
and beneath the caves Of our barns.
The chimney swift, which originally
placed Its nest on the inside Of hollow
trees, now Uses our chlmneys for that
purpose. The purple martin, once nest
Ing exclusively in holes in trees, will
now in many sections Of the country
use nothing but the bird boxes which
kind hearted men have erected.

An Exciting Escape.

Prince Kropotkin, the Russian revo-
lutionist, once made an exciting es-
cape from a fortress prison in st.
Petersburg. After two years In the
prison he had been removed to the Jail
hospital, where plans were matured
by his friends for his fight. He was
allowed to walk for an hour each after
noon, guarded by armed sentries, In
the grounds. A line OF spies outside
maintained a system Of signals 10 no.

or two false starts the violinist burst
into a mad melody, and the prisoner,

for it. Sentries tried TO stab him with
their bayonets; others hesitated to
shoot, believing that they could catch
him. A carriage with a racing horse

His beard was cut Off. his clothes

The White Woman Who Fought Win
the Tonic Apaohss.
The following story was told by ono
Of Arixona's early pioneers,
In 1884 DR.. Alsap and Lord Duppa,
we'll known pioneers, were prospecting
with party In the Bradshaw noun
tains on tho Hassayampa creek. One
morning the party separated for the
purpose Of hunting. In going up
canyon. In which they were separated
from their companions by high noun
tains. Duppa's detachment was attack
ed by large band Of Tonic Apaches.
The whites gradually fought their way
across the ridge with the hope Of re-
Joining their compositions. During the
advance Duppa, who was stationed be-
hind a rock, noticed that he was the
particular mark Of IN Indian with u
bow. Several arrows had fallen at his
feet, and one struck him In the arm.
Raising his rifle. he took aim, and Just
az he was touching the trigger the sup
posed Indian cried, Don't shootr In
good English, but 1t was too late, and
the body fell over with life extinct.
Soon after the two parties succeeded In
forming junction. and the Indians re-
treated, leaving their dead.
Out Of curiosity the party returned to
the place where Duppa killed the sup
posed Indian and found that 1t was a
white woman, evidently about thirty
years Of age and dressed in all the
paraphernalia Of the Apaches. Investi-
CATION was made. but no trace Of her
former whereabouts could ever be OBJ.

Many Regions Of the Earth Sill Re-
main . Mystery.
Many years will elapse before any
other continent is az well mapped as
Europe, and perhaps the era Of per-
fected mapping all over the world may
never come, because surveys are very
expensive and the five other continents
have far greater expanses than Europe
Of comparatively worthless lands that
do not call for tho most detailed and
refined cartography. But a large
amount Of pioneer work still invites
the explorer. for many of the unknown
areas have much territorial extent
In the Amazon basin, for example,
three OF these regions are each much
larger than all of our New England
states. One unknown area In north
west Alaska Ia nearly as large as New
England, and the Sahara has two
areas In black that are each twice as
large and another three times as large
as New England.
Asia still has several Of these vast
mysterious spaces, and the solid chunk

Greenland, would swallow up New

Queer Ways Como Folks Have Of Do
Ing This oimpls Act.
Tho only way to stop people from
plastering a stamp at any old place
upon the envelope except the right one
Il to DO as u done In England. There
letter which does not have the stamp
In the right position Is cast aside and
handled only when all other mail u
sorted and exchanged" This idea was
advanced by a postal clerk quoted by
the Philadelphia Record. I'VE often
lose considerable time because of these
letters" continued the clerk, for often
we have to stop and turn over an en-
velope to find the stamp. We do not
mind so much the love sick youth or
maiden who places the stamp on the
center Of the envelope, because a stamp
80 placed can be seen at a glance, but
Il IL chiefly with the foreigners that We
have the trouble. These people In
variably put on a stamp at any but
the right place. and you would be sur
prised to know how they do 1t. Why,
I have seen kttsrs upon which the
stamps have been placed on the back
Of the envelope at the point where the
society girl will put her monogram in
sealing wax. Others when they have
to pay, say, 8 cents postage will buy
ave one-cent stamps and put One on
each corner Of the envelope, with the
remaining one acting as seal upon
the back"
