The, Eye Of the Canal,

One Of the camels@the seven were
lying just beyond the circle Of FIRE
light t. rose complaining. Mustafa's
Ahmed slipped away upon his duty.
Presently heard his cultural cawing
to get the camel again to rest, but the
beast would not down and must be
beaten, the boy meanwhile mounting
great curses. l wondered that a being
SO small should without peril to him
self strike a creature like this with his
list, continuing all the time within
reach Of teeth and hoofs.
II will tell the khawaja," replied
Mustafa, "a most curious and interest
ing thing about this"
Ahmed had mastered the camel and
now came to his place.
1.-THE khawaja has observed" Musta-
In continued, "that a child may beat
and command camel. 1t is not be-
cause the camel Is stupid nor yet be-
cause he Is timid;. 1t Is because Of a
wise provision whereby God suited
him to the weakness of men. The
camePs eyes are like magnifying
glasses and increase the stature Of his
master seven times, wherefore ne is
obedient to the gigantic appearing
creature"
In Damascus, too, heard this super
stition.-Norman Duncan in Harper's
Magazine.

Tho Magical Mirror.

An ordinary mirror Of any size or
shape, a piece Of French chalk pointed
SO that it can be used to write and a
silk handkerchief are the requisites.
Draw upon the mirror with the chalk
any design or words you choose. With
the handkerchief wipe the glass light
~ until 1t is perfectly clear and no
writing or design is apparent. Having
all this prepared beforehand, show to
some one and request that he breathe
gently on the face Of the glass, when
he will see picture Of his future wife,
for the design drawn will show very
distinctly. This can again be wiped
off, and If breathed upon the design

Improvement WORK.
Right Methods to Follow to Make II
Success.

Success.
After the organization Of an i'm
provement society or club, which ev-
cry community should have. do not
cumber 1t with too many rules. bylaws.
etc. If the proper spirit is present the
organization, though complete. may be
rather crude and primitive In its gov
eminent. Do not have too many in
structions that the members feel they
should follow. Few restrictions make
for enthusiasm. Every member should
feel himself committee Of one to for
ward any and all work undertaken.
Clean sidewalks and parkways is a
good first venture. See that all side
walks are swept clean as often as re-
quired and If possible see that In the
business portion Of your town they
are swept each day. Next tackle the
streets, particularly the cutters. Clean
them Of all weeds and see that no pa
pers or other refuse Is thrown into the
street or roadway. If the town does
not provide for the collection Of gar
bage it should be made to do SO at once.
and suitable receptacles for street it,
ter should be provided at prominent
corners. While all are laboring for
public cleanliness, It may be as well to
look over your own premises to see If
they come up to the proper standard.
In every community may be found
workers in these movements whose
home places are in a most slovenly
state. There is nothing so strong In
improvement argument as example. II
you do the best you can with your
premises your most untidy neighbor
will at least clean up some. When all
the foregoing is disposed Of plant street
trees, q most potent factor in making
towns attractive. Vacant lots OF both
resident and nonresident owners must
be cleaned up and kept clear Of rub
bish, and your last work to make your
community fairly attractive will be to
look to the care and cleanliness Of
public buildings and plats Of ground.

By THOMAS F. CLARK.
Followers Of the knights Of the pad
.a1ed mitts throughout the country are
now busily engaged In discussing the
chances Of their favorites in their
coming prize ring battles. Two cham
plonship battles are on the calender
and a possible third one. According to
reports from Australia, 1t has been
finally settled that Tommy Burns and
lack johnson are going to battle for
the worlds heavyweight title the last
week Of November or the first In De-
<cember. Billy Papke and Stanley
Ketchel are to have their third meet
ing for middleweight honors on Nov
% in San Francisco, and there is a
chance that Packey Mcfarland and
Battling Nelson will meet in California
ON Dec. 25.
OF course the Burns-Johnson is the
biggest affair. 1t is said that the Aus
tralian syndicate has guaranteed $780,
900 for a contest to finish between
the two men. The winner will receive
so per cent and the loser 40 of this
sAount. The fight will probably take
place at Rushcutter's bay, near Sgd
1ney. There has been so much quib-
bling between these men and so many
arguments between the followers Of
both that a long contest would clear
matters up.
Billy Papke is now on edge for his
go with Stanley Ketchel for the mid
dleweight title. 1t is to be held at
Jimmy Coffroth's arena in San Fran
cisco and promises to attract large
, house. If Ketchel should defeat Papke
In their third meeting, curious state
OF affairs will have arisen In the
aniddleweight class. In both meetings
OF the men 1t was one Of the early
blows which decided the outcome of
lfhe battle.
In both battles the losing man has
s.gone TO his corner dazed at the end of
a-he first period. 1t is hardly likely
'esaIs-4.r will be able to repeat this trick
when they get together on the coast.
Jim Driscoll, the undisputed feather
weight champion Of England, will have
IN opportunity to show his form in
America on Nov. 5, when he will meet
AIatty Baldwin, the able New England
lightweight, in six round bout at the
Fairmont Athletic club in New York.
If Driscoll possesses all the class that
his past performances indicate he
.-Should make it interesting for the
American.

New York recently Packey Mcfarland

EVERYDAY HERoINES.
Life Is Made Up Of Little Things, MOI
Great.

Life Is Made Up Of Little Things, Not
Great.
The quicker we learn that life is
made up Of little things. not great and
heroic deeds. the quicker we will ad-
just ourselves to living it happily.
As we grow older this lesson is grad
ually forced upon us. but we could be-
gin the adjusting much more quickly
and have a longer period of happiness
if as girls we would cease to dream
Of being heroines and consent to be
ordinary, everyday mortals.
Most people go through life with
never a chance for spectacular hero
ism. What, then, must that life be
which is spent in day dreams Of how
one will act in some great crisis which
may never arise!
DO you know what will probably be
the result Of those pleasing Visions
provided they have not been backed up
by doing as one goes along-an igno-
minious fall down.
It is little use to plan great sacri-
fees and neglect the small ones that
can be made each day If we but allow
ourselves to see them.
The young girl who dreams Of the
time when she can open her veins to
give her lifeblood to save mothers
life will probably fume over having
to leave an interesting novel to save
mother a wearisome trip to the store.
1t is the little things-smiles. small
kindnesses. every day disagreeable
drudgery cheerfully done-that make
those around us far happier than If
we plan to do heroic deeds or even do
them, let us say. and spend the interim
with our eyes tight shut to the little
opportunities for quiet heroism all
around US.

Plan to AbsIIsh Psonaas.

Mrs. Mary Grace Quackenbos, the
New York woman lawyer who was
appointed assistant attorney general to
investigate and proceed against those
violating the law in regard to peonage,
announces that she has thought of a
remedy for the evil. It is to unite the
different interests concerned. She
would form an association in which
the employers, the immigrants them
selves through their cOnsuls, the Fail
road and steamship companies, the la
Dor unions and the heads Of the de-
partments Of immigration and Of COM
merce and labor would all be represents
ed. By means OF bureau under their
direction the newcomer could be sent
TO the part Of the country for which
he was best suited and where his labor
was most In demand. The plan sounds
so promising that it is to be hoped the
government viii give it trial.

READING WILL
CUT WAGES, SURE
Mr.. VOORHEES, Declares There
is No Doubt
About 1t

Theodore Voorhees,. first vice. presl-
dent of the Reading, says that a reduc-
ton in the rate OF wages paid en-
ployes Of that corporation was inevi-
table and that not even "Mr. Roose-
velts ipse dixit could prevent IT,"
Mr. Voorhees, would give no hint as
TO the time when the railroad company
might take definite action in this mat
ter He did, however. maintain that
thus far there was nothing in the rail-
road situation, from the viewpoint OF
those in control Of transportion COM
.panies to indicate that a revival In
business OF sufficient proportions 10
change the tide In favor Of the em-
ployes would occur before the fiat to
cut wages had gone forth.
IT'S bound TO come' Mr.. Voorhees,
declared. "and We might as well whis-
tie to keep up our courage
IL is known that the Reading Is
dropping men off its payrolls right
along. When the time comes for theiI
restoration only those win be re-em-
iployed who meet every requirement OF
the company. In other words there
will be a wedding out OF persons who
were placed in service when men were
hard TO get.
Railroad men estimate that nearly
100000 employees have been laid off In
this country since November 1. 1t IS
estimated that the mechanical, ao-

partments have been reduced one-thirc
in their working force.
