Happiness.

Happiness is an inexpensive and therefore very common form of en. joyment.
 Happiness and pleasure must not be confused. Happiness is a sort of felicitous opiate administered by a charitable Providence to those who cannot afford anything better Often a person so poor that he has nothing left but health and a moderate in- come will be foolishly. extravagantly, riotously happy. Then why begrudge the rich their pleasure. which would appear to be the only fun that is left for them? Is 1t not a fair and im- partial division?
 How ungrateful for any one to sug- gest that pleasure, being always pre- ferred, often carries a bonus of com mon. which Is happiness, by reason of which the rich get more than their share. Such people are not entitled to be poor. They should be deprived of their dope. They should be very rich-Life.

A Warnino to Elat-Seekers

In an office in the Wall street dis trfct the following notice has hung in a conspicuous place for several weeks. It is written in English, German and French, under the headlines, Warn ing" "Habet Acht," and "Avertisse- ment:" Do you contemplate renting an apartment-a fiat? If so, be warn ed, and look at the place at night after you have determined to rent 1t. Do not look-you did that in the daytime-but listen. Listen for the sound of the pump. If you hear 1t don't take the flat, because you will regret it. The pump will destroy your peace, it will get on your nerves, 1t will rob your home of all attractions and life will be a burden If your prospective landlord has told you the price of ice, listen for the ice ma chine music. Take heed, Be warned,. Listen. !'-New York Tribune.

Students Practical Test.

You won't get fat on crackers and milk
 Four days dieting under direction of the medical department of the Uni versity of Minnesota has reduced the weight of five men engaged in the ex- pertinent from one-quarter of a pound to three and one-half pounds. The sophomore medical class in physiolo. gy was given practice in the determin. aton of food values by having some of their number detailed as a food test squad. The men were given three meals each day, each meal consisting of about three and one-half ounces Of crackers, one-half ounce of butter and one and two-fifths pints of milk.
 The comparatively great loss of weight of some of the men. all of whom started in in the best physical condition, Is believed to have demon strated that the restrictions placed upon them would kill the ordinary man ill a short time. Meals were served at regular hours. and all the food given was the best to be had of it's kind. None of the men ate any think outside of what was served up by the medical department-Minn apolis Journal.

Husbands Ghost Stops Wedding.

Declaring that her dead husband had come to her in spirit and warned her against marrying again, Mrs. Mary Lincoln of Wilmerding, widow of Charles Lincoln. refused to proceed with her intended marriage to Jo- seph Parker, also of Wilmerding. and the guests were dismissed, says a Pittsburg dispatch to the New York Times
 A little over a year ago her hus- band died After a brief period of mourning she agreed to marry Mir Parker. He furnished a house and invitations were issued.
 The other afternoon MT. Parker found her in tears. Her mother said that some time during the pre- vious night her daughter had come sobbing into her room and declared that she had just been visited by the spirit of her dead husband. He had warned her against marrying again, she said, and when she pro tested the spirit had taken hold of her arms and held her until she prom ised that she would give up the mar riage. She asserted that her arms ached from the encounter

WILD TRIBE OF POETS.
Picturesque People That Are Found In
 the Philippines.

Among the wild tribes to be found in the Philippines are the Begcbos. the most picturesque people in the tropics, Their origin is unknown, and all sorts of opinions have been expressed concerning them. One tale told of them is that their first ances- tors were all poets and musicians. and that the dislike for the practical which is always noticeable among them has come down through the gen. erations.
 Those that have taught among the Bogobos say that given song or a poem to learn and they will study and dream over it for hours, but give the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic and he immediately becomes i'll and wants to go home.
 Living at Santa Cruz, fin the Davae district. is Miss Benedict, a Chicago university woman, who is collecting everything peculiar to the Bogobo.
 It has been found that the bead work done by them Is quite like that of the American Indian. but there is no other likeness in the races be. yond that.

Helping lmpecunious Man.

"If you happen to have theater tick cts that haven't cost you anything" ]" Said the bachelor girl, and don't want 10 take woman, you must diplomatic ally go about asking some man you know if you want his company. If he is a man without money, and he generally is if he is very interesting, he will have a dozen engagements that prevent his accompanying you. He wants to go, you understand, but
 This is what you must do. You must explain to him quickly, in the same breath that you ask him, that you have a dinner engagement before hand and that you must come home straight after the theater You can't possibly stop anywhere for anything in the way of refreshments. It is out of the question.
 You'll be surprised to see the magical suddenness with which his previous engagements take to them selves wings and disappear. New York Press.

A Caddy's Joke.

James Anderson. of the Scottish American Golf club. smiled at a poor player on the Van Courtlandt Park links in New York
 He reminds me of chap used to know" said MT. Anderson. This chap played so badly that even his caddies made a butt of him. He got a ball badly bunkered one day, and, do what he would. he couldn't get it out again Whack. whack, whack, he went, miss ing it every time. After half an hour $ work he wiped his wet face with his handkerchief. and turned despairing ly to the caddy.
 Hang it. he said. T have tried all my clubs on this confounded ball What on earth am I to do now
 The caddy laughed harshly
 Give it swat with yer bag he said.

Force of a Cyclone.

Careful estimate of force of a ey keep hurricane in active operation reveals the presence of a power that makes the mightiest efforts of a man appear as nothing in comparison. A force equal to more than 400 ,000-horse power was estimated as developed ir a West Indian cyclone This greatly exceeds the power that could be de veloped by all the means within the range of mans capabilities. Were steam, water, windmills and the strength of all men and animals com bined they could not even approach the tremendous force of this mighty power.

Pevivinu an Ancient Game.

One of the recent reviyals is the ancient game of bowls, which now bids fair to take once again leading place among the sports of Merrie England. As a matter of fact, it is just as good a game today as it was in the time of Raleigh or in the remote Anglo Saxon times. From medical point of view We have nothing but praise for this most excellent of recreations. It provides open air exercise and amuse- ment for old and young. it is admira- bly, fitted for many inyalids, and above all it is one of the best of what may be called natural opiates.-Medieal Press.

The odd part is that they never stop to wonder Of course. readers know that not so long ago, before steel pens were in general use, the clerks instrument was a quill Sharpening one end of this was all that was necessary to make pen, and every man was his own penmaker and small knives were kept for this purpose.

 lhou art stupid fellow for thou mast sinned against thine own law. which commands man to take care of life. But thou has just risked thy life unnecessarily. Why did you not re. spond to my salutation? If had split your head open with my sword. who could have called me to account"
 Sir! l pray. suppress your wrath; l nope to quiet you. if you will allow me only a few words in reply.
