exaggeration. "It's perfectly wonder
full to see the way Cousin Henry counts

so lucky to have him? He'll take a

Mrs Lombard's weakness. and could
not forbear the question.
"Why-nO-at lsast-why, perhaps
he might get five or ten cents out of
the way, but not any more, ever" and
Mrs. Lombard spoke with an air Of one
who has taken stand and refuses all
chances to retreat.

picked I'D his hat and suddenly left

a cigar which consumed about an hour

A case Is known to US, says Golfers
Weekly. of young man, residing near
an army post, who had studied for the
West Point examination, but failed of
appointment owing to adverse political
influence brought to bear ON his Con-
gresham, as he believed. Much de-
pressed, he told his troubles to the COM
mandant at Fort Thomas, who advised
him to enlist and fight his way up. His
father and older brother were clergy
men, another brother held a good place
In the civil service. and all were OBJ
posed to the suggestion, but he persist
ed. Within a year he was corporal |;
a little skirmish in the Philippines gave
him another lift, and he received his
commission as second lieutenant in less
time than IL he had gone to West Point.
Such facts seem likely to make the
work Of our recruiting officers less dis
heartening.

Certain Of the high-sounding terms
employed by insanity experts are cal
culated to confuse the layman, but
when they come to be explained they
denote very ordinary conditions. Thus
the term "systematized delusion" re-
duces itself to the equivalent Of a COM
mon expression In which the patient Is
described as "having bug" and the
patient himself is designated as a fool
with prefxed adjective. The impress.
sive expert terms are the instruments
by which the expert demonstrates his
learning and fixes his fees.

been known as Creeks, but they were
a conquered, Independent tribe, and
even though subjugated by the Creeks
and now part of that tribe they re-
tain a distinct language and seldom
marry outside of their clan. 1t Is this
clannishness that has maintained more
pure Indian blood among the Euchees
than is ordinarily found.
The Euchee children are taught their
own language and are discouraged In
speaking Greek. Noah Gregory, now

It Is only necessary to read the his
tory Of the various nations-and not
necessary to read as far back into the
past as the days Of the Caesars-to be
assured that the morals of the United
States are rather healthy as whole
and that the morals of the civilized
world are of finer grain to-day than
they were In the past. This Is due
partly to better sort Of civilization,
partly to the spread Of the Christian
religion and partly to the fact that de-
cency has hedged vice about with laws
that draw the line where personal lib
erty infringes upon the liberty Of per-
sons.

now where a Euchee has married a
woman who speaks the Greek language
one can find a Euchee child who will

father always in the Euchee language.
The Euchees are provincial in habi-

they do not scatter over the territory
