Cost Of Being Late.
From the Wilkesbarre Times.


A young kentuckian has lost d big for,
tune by being twenty minutes late in
keeping business engagement. The
cherries old fellow with the scythe al
ways gets all that is coming to him.
And there is many bad scar on our for
tunes where he has had to prod us up to
the mark. Time is cheap, and We are apt
to think we can fitch ii as we Will But
il is always ourselves we rob, not Time.
There are few, ii any, rules of conduct
more importan. and yet more lightly
neglected than that of promptness in
keeping appointments.
Maybe you can waste your own time by
being late in keeping engagements ana
feel that the loss, if any, is your own
affair. But it is also the affair of the
man you keep waiting. You waste his
time, too. If your time Is worthless,
maybe his is not He may conclude that
his time is worth more to him than you
are. In many cases it may not matter
much But one never knows until after
through false polteness we are usually
assured that it does not matter even
when it does. Only the idle and care

keeping engagements 1t may be hard to

promptness. Men of great affairs. who's

The Ideal Camping Lodge.
From Harper's Weekly.

From = NePkLy
Perhaps the ideal camping lodge is an
old deserted cabin, with two rustic bench
es on either side the door, and a flowing
stream with a good stone-lined pool not
too far distant. To sit on ones front set
tie and look out upon miles of stretching
meadow, hill and wood gives one a lord
of-the-manor sensation which the most
complex of mansions with its serving fol X
and difficult organization cannot bestow.

plate unbroken and unimpaired.

Curious Ceremony Attended by
Thousands of Pilgrims.
From the Calcutta Statesman.

From the Calcutta Statesman
Thousands of pilgrims from the various
OUTLYING villages and other parts of the
Hooghly district poured in from an early
hour in the morning to the temples of
Jagernath
The image Of the god is placed on
conspicuous part of the temple, so that il
can be viewed AT an advantage by the
immense crowd of pilgrims. and there at
a certain fixed hour the bathing ceremony
commences.
The most curious rart Of the festival is
that water is not poured on the image or
the god until certain small bird is found
sitting on the topmoSt banner of the tenn
pie. There is popular belief that the
bird comes from Puri. the famous place
OF Hindu pilgrimage. to Mahesh, on the
day of this festival, and his very presence
is an indication that the ceremony Should
commence. Immediately after the bath is
over the bird disappears.

NEW YORK, September s.-A large
number of society people turned out yes

sheet about him and finished. This event
was won by Albert Akin.
The Lochinvar race, where the gentle
men were to ride to Il certain point. dis
mount and help the women to mount,
then mount themselves and ride to the

Changes in the Regulations.

Radical changes were made in the rules
and regulations and discipline of the or
ganization. Two years ago a committee on
revision of discipline was appointed, but
the work presented to the twenty-fifth
national convention was not satisfactory
and the committee was given another year
in which To present Il new rule of dis
cipline. The chairman of the committee.
Mrs Emma r. Wallace of Illinois. and
a past national president, stated that the
committee unanimously reported a recon-
mendation that the article on discipline
be entirely eliminated from the code.
Ii was the opinion of the committee that
the Woman's Relief Corps could get along
without a law on discipline. leaving the
national president to settle all questions
in dispute.
This report was unanimously adopted by
the convention.
Another resolution adopted prevents
members of the WOman,s Relief Corps
taking the order into the civil courts.

Browning, Danny Longs new slab ar
list, made his debut before a fair sized
crowd Of fans yesterday at Freeman's
park and made good frsm the jump
by freely using the whitewash brush on
the tailenders. The newcomer was
touched up in several innings, but he
showed he was there with the goods
by pUzzling Van Haltrens heavy bat
ters when he was in a hole.
The Oaks ran the bases like bunch

them could score a run was to knock
the ball out Of the lot. They reached
the bags in nearly every inning, but

The game looked bright to the spec
tators until the fifth inning. Up TO
TINS time the Seals had only one tally,
which they got in the second frame.
All this time the Oaks were knocking
al the door and were nOSed out of
making a run in several instances by
fast fielding on the part of the Seals
and good heady pitching by Browning.
in the fifth the San Franciscans put
over two, and 10 make the oaks look

seals put over three more in the

In four of the nine innings the Com
muters got two hits to each frame, and
they were unable TO slide man over

the game, but he was Iucky in several
