WORDS OF WISDOM.

Effervescence is rapid than
growth, but not SO clean and substan-
tial.-Ram's Horn.
The entire object of true education
is to make people not only do the
right thing, but enjoy the right thing.
-Ruskin. e..
Goodness is the shine of character.
You may not be able to have your
way, but you go your way, and shine.
Home Herald.
Forget the things behind, look for
ward to the things before. The wis.
dom of a divine life lies hid in this
principle.-Robertson.
We frequently fall into error. and
folly, not because the true principles
of action are not known, but because
for the time they are not remem.
bered.-Dr. Johnson.
We reap what we SOW, but nature
has love over and above that justice,
and gives US shadow and blossom and
fruit that springs from no planting
of ours.-George Eliot.
He is not wise who discards a hap.
pier to-day for fear lest it be taken
from him on the morrow. Let us
wait until the hour has been sounded.
Till then each one do his work. The
hour will sound at last; let US not
waste our time in seeking 1t on the
dial of time-Maeterlinck.
He who knows not, and knows not
that he knows not, is a fool. Shun
him. He who knows not, and knows
that he knows not, humble. Teach
him. He who knows, and knows not
that he knows, is asleep. Wake him.
He who knows, and knows that he
knows, is a wise man. Follow him.
Japanese Proverbs.
Not merely I shall grow so that I
shall be able to understand vastly
more of what God is and what He is
doing; God also will be ever doing
new things. He is forever active.
He has purposes concerning ME which
He has not yet unfolded. Therefore
each year grows more sacred with
wondering expectation. - Phillips

Fatigue and Its Results.
BY l.. H. GULICK, NJ. D.

Fatigue lowers all the faculties of
the body. The effects On the other
part of a man are just as important.
It puts a chasm between seeing and
acting; it makes a break somehow
between the messages that come into
The brain from the outside world and
The messages that go out. 1t destroys
will power. In every direction it de-
treases efficiency, forcing the person
atty down to lower level.
When fatigue begins to attack the
personality it naturally undermines
these latent strata first. When a man
is exhausted he finds it difficult to be
patient. That is not his fault. 1t is
because fatigue has forced him back
4 few hundred generations. His self
control is at a low ebb. The smallest
annoyances are enough to make him
lose his temper. Many temptations
are more violent and harder to resist
when a man ia fatigued. His moral
sense is dulled. He loses the vivid
ness of his distinctions between right
and wrong, honesty and dishonesty.
We degenerate from the top down.
The last thing acquired is the first
lost.
Therefore, bodily vigor is a moral
agent. 1t enables US to live on higher
levels, to keep up to the top Of our
achievement. We cannot afford to
lose grip on ourselves.

Jadam Bede on the Green River.

I could not help thinking, when
n Of the gentlemen was talking
about the Green River yesterday, OF
the little instance that occurred when
the River. and Harbor Committee was
traversing the Ohio. At every point
that we stopped in Kentucky some
members of the local community pre-
sented each member of our committee
with a quart bottle of the real thing.
We were travelling with light bag
gage, and before we got through We
had more than we could carry.
lLaughter.] More than we could
carry in our valises. I understand
that some of the members sent their
clothes home by express and kept the
liquor with them. [%Laughter.] And
I wondered if it was on the Green
River that the Three Feathers brand
of liquor is manufactured, and if they
needed deep water navigation for that
product. Laughter do not sup.
pose it means that they really have
three featheres, but that by using
the liquor one could see three.

Keeping the Navy Up to Date.

United States naval officers do not
admit that the monster battleships
planned by Great Britain and Italy
are necessarily more effective than
warships of the Connecticut-Louis-
lana and Michigan-South Carolina
types. Now that fuller details have
reached here regarding the C%uniberti
battleship, with which Italy expects
to %outclass the Dreadnought, there is
less disposition than ever to overesti-
mate the Importance of Italy's move.
The assumption that the biggest
battleship can whip one of a few hun
dred tons smaller, leaves out of ac-
count the matter of seamanship,
brains, courage, craftsmanship and
relative efficiency. American war
ships may not be as big as the big
| gest, but in personnel and equipment
they equal anything afloat.
Our newest warships have a steam
ing radius of 5000 miles, much great
er than that of any other battleships
afoat. This is a very important ele-
ment in the fighting efficiency Of all
war vessels, and one in which the
large English and Italian battleships
are likely to fail.-Harper's Weekly.

Kansas Fine Senate Chamber.

Kansas has, with the exception OF
New York, and possibly Pennsylvan.
ia, the finest Senatorial chamber in
the country. The Kansas Senate
chamber was adorned so lavishly that
$4,000 in excess of the %appropria'
ton was spent and a scandal grew
out of the matter during Governor
John A. Martins term Of Office. Hav.
ing spent so much on the Senate
chamber, the State had nothing left
with which to decorate and furnish
Representative Hall, and the result Is
! cave of gloom, in which even habi-
tues of the place occasionally get lost
Nobody knows who bought the, House
furniture or how much was paid fol-
it, but the impression is that it was
picked up at an auction sale.-Tope-
ka Capital.

HOW TO SAVE OTHERS.

Because He loved he gave
Himself for love of us!
Who would another save,
Must give his hearts love thus;
The worthiest gifts must always wait
Till love unlock the golden gate.
Some gifts are only aims
That have no love behind; ssi VI
In them there are no balms
To heal the troubled mind;
Who gives them has nor joy nor painy
>Who takes them has but little gain.
But he gives more than gold
Who gives, because he must,
Riches of worth untold,
Treasures of love and trust;
Giving himself, he cannot live,
Unless his heart and hands may give.
So learn thou to bestow
From the great Giver Christ;
Loves gifts will freely flow
, When the heart keeps its tryst;
And no one stops to count the cost
Whose whole glad life in love is lost.

Sunshine in London.

Not only was the sunshine OF last
raar much in excess Of the average,
but. except in some places in the
northwest, it was also greatly in ex.
cess of that 1905, which, again, was
a bright year. 1t is very satisfactory
to find that the greatest excess on the
average is in London (Westminster),
where the aggregate number of hours
was 1913. This represents an excess
of more than an hour per day.-Lon-
don Lancet.

shadow of a smile which could only
be seen in his eyes, for it did not

turned to take some letter from the
hand of a quarter-master, and waited

in front of him. and looking up into
his motionless face with lifeless eyes.
"And the other" continued the
sailor. slowly meeting his gaze-"and
the other-I think you know what
the other was"
Yes" said Lowe, softly, as he
held out his hand to say farewell.

Her One Talent.

husband to rest, to litter 1t with
books and papers, If 1t pleased him to|
bring work homeTfrom the office,
while she. sat beside him ready to1
smile or speak as he looked up.
The husband said onetday: There
is n talent you have, daring, be-
yond anything else.in the werld-Sthe|
talent of having time enough fol. any
thing" His home was a suburb OF
paradise, and he went forth to the
competitions of life steadily success
full in all his enterprises. And the
quiet wife, who had time to love him,
to share his hopes, listen to his plans
and make his life supremely happy
was an element in his success which
counted more largely than even the
husband knew.
It is rare to find insthis hurryingl
world a being who works. with an air
~of'repose; who can pause to listen to-
another's story; who has a heart
touched to so responsive key that
sympathy in a friends good fortune
is as ready Is pity for friends

This woman, who had the one tall
ent Of doing fully and blithey every
home obligation, by degrees became
a social power. A large class Of. girls

while she unfolded the lesson to
them, and upon stated occasions she
entertains the poor, pale, fagged-out
girls of the downtown factories, and
keeps them by kindly word and help

from places of temptation; for she
believes it Is as much Christian

save the poor remnant oftheirsruined
lives after they have fallen.

woman, Margaret. E., Sangster says:
Altogether, when I think of the sick
beds this little woman sits by. the
'heartaches she soothes, the conf
dences of which she is the trusted
recipient, the happy homelife which
is hers, and the good she Is doing, ST.

Necessary Hours Of SIeep.

The belief that the hours of sleep
should be artifcially restricted is
prevalent. Yet it is contrary to Or
binary good sense. If the human
body does not need sleep for the up
building of it's tissues it will lot call
for it. A rule Of health which an
not be wrong is to sleep, if posi-
BILE, as long as any inclination for it
exists.
The view on this sub
ject is undoubtedly due to the fact
that when the mind and body are
thoroughly rested it is often difficult
to arouse the mind from it's comfort
able lethargy. On the other hand,
the man who is under a mental
strain and sleeps only five or six
hours at night is keen and alert Don
after awakening. But it is an In
healthy activity. His erves are at
a high tension. He is on edge, so
to speak. Such a strain, long on
tinued, results inevitably in a nerv-
Gus observation-disclosures Leader.

CHAPTER XXXIV.
Continued.

SOAI&ASSo-
But if the record of the work was
lost, the fruits were we'll preserved,
and among these the colonel spent
many a busy day. The news of Win
yards return soon spread among the
initiated, and the house in Seymour
street was besieged by visitors. The
results of the journey were, however,
kept strictly secret, only the colone!
and a few experts being allowed 20
assist the invalid in the work OF put
ting them in order. Soon, however,
the news leaked out, n questions
were asked in Parliament, with the
result of acquainting Russia with the
fact that she had been beaten in her
own favorite pastime of Eastern d.
plomacy. Article after article ap-
peared in the Moscow papers, calling
for further investigation into the
carelessness of the avowed Russian
agents in Afghanistan, who could
give no details of the passage of this
dangerous traveller through their
midst. These writings, hot from the
brain of one who, even as these lines
are penned, is being mourned by the
nation he served SO we'll with pen
and press, were issued with the view
of learning more of the results of
VINEYARD Mistley's observations; but
in this object they failed. All that
the world learned was that the jour
ney had been accomplished, whether
alone or with companions, whether
hasty and superficial, Or slow and
searching, never transpired.
Day by day VINEYARD regained his
strength, and the lines upon his face
lines speaking of hardship, hunger,
thirst and anxiety-began TO disap-
ear. They never quite left him,
however, but remained there, signs
of age upon a young face-silent
testimonials of forgotten sufferings.
His appearance had at first been
rather a shock to all who remem-
bered him as he was in former days.
He was not pale, but the dull brown
ness of his face seemed only to &C
centuate the drawn and weary ex-
preston of his features; through all,
however, and even when ne could
not stand unsupported, the brave,
strong look never left his eyes.
1t may have been by sheer force
of will, but his boyish c~heerfulness
was as reliable as of old. He laughed
at his own weakness and incapacity
to walk alone; yet his laughter failed
to detract from the pathos of the pic
ture afforded by the colonel assisting
him to move about. He laughed at
his own childish helplessness in the
matter of cutting up his food, and
au~daciously handed his plate to Lena
for assistance.
Altogether ne was the most unsat-
isfactory co~nvalescent imaginable, ex-
cept that he made visible and rapid
strides toward health. There was
no demand for lowered tones and
noiseless movements in his presence.
Inquiries after his welfare were
treated loosely, and unless the medi-
cine was administered with severity
and regularity, he was only to ready
to forget all about it.
