VOICES FROM THE SEA.
Common Phrases That Have Had ThsII
Origin Aboard Ship.

It Is remarkable what a number of
common expressions In use every day
come to us from the sea. You grumble
at a third party for Showing in his
oar" in a conversation. A friend In
quires after your health. "Oh, first
rate, thanksw you reply, using term
derived from the days Of old wooden
line of battle ships. Probably each Of
US knows of some one who is sailing
under false colors."
Politicians are not infreQuently
thrown overheard" by their party
when they disappoint expectations. We
call tall buildings "skyscrapers," a
term originally purely nautical. "Close
quarters" Is very common express
sion, which, like first rate" dates
from the time Of wooden fighting
ships. The quarters" we're protec-
tions erected along the bulwarks be-
hind which sailors could lie low and
which were used to help to repel
boarders.
There are others, too-"half seas
over" for instance, and "high and
dry" Honest men are said to be
''aboveboard." We call good fol-
nothing man "derelict," and we urge
people to go full speed ahead" on all
occasions when we mean there is need
for haste.

Things Better Than We.

Things Better Than We.
1--WE are losing all our secrets In this
shabby age" an architect said. ''1f
we keep on, the time will come when
we'll be able to do nothing well.
Take, for instance, steel. We claim
to make good steel, yet the blades the
saracens turned out hundreds Of years
ago would cut one Of our own blades
in two like butter.
Take ink. Our modern ink fades in
FIVE or ten years to rust color, yet the
ink Of medieval manuscripts is as
black and bright today as 1t was TOO
years ago.
Take dyes. The beautiful blues and
reds and green's of antique oriental
rugs have all been lost, while In Egyp-
tian tombs we find fabrics dyed thou
sands Of years ago that remain today
brighter and purer In hue than any of
our modern fabrics.
Take my speciality, buildings. We
can't build as the ancients did. The
secret Of their mortar and cement is
lost to us. Their mortar and cement
were actually harder and more durable
than the stones they bound together,

Beethoven was born in small house
In Bonn. His father had Inherited the
vice of drinking, and often Beethoven
and his younger brother were obliged
to take their intoxicated father home.
He was never known to utter an un-
kind word about the man who made
his youth so unhappy, and he never
failed to resent it when third person
spoke uncharitably Of his fathers
frailty. Young Beethoven was thus
taught many severe lesson in the
hard school of adversely, but his trials
were not without advantage to him.
They gave to his character that iron
texture which upheld him under his
heaviest burdens.

The Influence Of Books.

Books have always secret influence
on the understanding. We cannot at
pleasure obliterate Ideas. He that
reads books of science, though without
any desire fixed of improvement, will
grow more knowing. He that enter
tains himself with moral or religious
treatises will imperceptibly advance in
goodness. The ideas which are often
offered to the mind will at last find a
lucky moment when It Is disposed to

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
al Olney,

al Olney,
! WA al We made our mighty boast
n, the wondrous things we'd DO TO you
When YOU became our host.
ARla- uss ,,ll, wine and praise and dine
And you'd be 81 ed With cheer Y
That you'd think Of all the luke warm
burgs
The torrldest was here.
The glare and light would nme the
night
And make it bright as day.
There'd be no room for grim-faced
gloom,
Life's cares we'd hold at bay.
We'd show TO you our River Nile
And off it's classic banks
We'd watch the FESTIVE Crocodile
Display his sportive pranks.
And maidens fair would wander there
With many winsome smile
And your hot air and their hot air
The hours would beguile.
How, like the Ancient Mariner.
You'd ponder and you'd think,
WIN with water, water everywhere,
There seemed none here to drink.
How Comus. King of revelry
Would hold majestic sway,
And fun and mrtl would rule the
earth
And drive dull care away.
oh, Sons of Egypt's sunny land.
Oh. followers of Pharoah.
These things and more we promised
you
When you should come TO Cairo.
Now Cairo's gates are flung ajar.
Her doors are opened wide,
The city's keys flung in the sea
And washed out with The tide.
The town is yours and all herein
Whate'er OF joy and cheer
So what you like Just take along.
The rest just leave right here.
And as YOU hustle aftAf biz.
Nov hustle after fun
You'll find you needn't hustle far
Its Coming on the run.
Our heart is in the one right place.
Stretched far our glad right hand.
A mile wide smile beams on each face
Welcome TO Egypt land.

LIVELY FIGHT FOR
THE NEXT MEETING
LARGE DELEGATIONS COMING
WITH BANDS TO PUSH
CLAIMS For PLUM.
.BELLEvILLE IN THE LEAD
With LARGEST Crowd of Boosters But
CentraIa and Harrisburg Are
Also to Send Crowds
of Boomers.

An interesting feature of the meet
ing will be the fight between Cen
tralia, Belleville, and Harrisburg for
next years convention. While the
rivalry is good natured it Is none the
less spirited ana every sorc Oh means
10 impress upon the Hustlers the adj
vantages in each particular city have
been resorted to. Centralia was the
first in the field with lot of alluring
advertising matter but Belleville came
next with an earnest appeal for the
Hustler's vote and followed it up
with several effective advertising fea-
lures. Metropolis also entered a bid
for the next meeting at an early stage
of the game but its efforts along the
line of publicity have been rather
neglected. Harrisburg evidently has
been conducting a quiet campaign but
blossomed out in an nergetic manner
yesterday and the boomers from that
city who are to arrive today will
doubtlessly put their city on the
Hustlers' map.
The rivalry for the next years meet
will greatly increase the crowds and
will give an added zest to the gather
ing. That all the delegations are
] coming prepared to make a de-
termined stand to secure the prize is
shown by the following specials re-
ceived from the contesting cities last
night by The Bulletin:
