"When you smile the world will
smile with you, but when you cry,
YOU cry alone.
Dear friends, have you ever stopped
TO think what great thing a smile isl
A smiling face will do much more than
one of those dark, gloomy faces What
is the use of us going around with our
faces looking like winter storm cold9
WHY can't our faces be wreathed in
smiles? Isn't it pleasant sight to see
a man coming home from his work at
the close of day. He is tired and
worried A smiling wife meets him
at the door. Her smile quickly drives
all marks of worry and care from his
face Ism that much better than to
be met by an unpleasant gloomy face.
If when we are worried over some-
thing and feel as if we would like to
cease to live, someone comes to us
with a sweet, smiling face and utters
some kind words of encouragement to
us, doesn't it seem to make our troub-
les much lighter, and easier to bear
If you go about with a pleasant face
and a kind word for everyone, it will
help others to bear their burdens.
Get up in the mornings with a song
on your lips and smile on your face.
Pass all your troubles off with one of
these don't care laughs. When you go
to work, sing and laugh as you 60 and
it will not seem half as hard.
Always look on the bright side of
life and when there is no bright side
brighten up the dark side.

The Marble and the Pencil.

The marble trick is as old as the days
of Aristotle. Cross the middle and
fore fingers and roll a marble between
them. The marble will feel like two,
because it is being felt in an unaccus-
toned way. If pencil is drawn be-
tween the crossed fingers the one pen
ell will feel like parallel bars. The
same Illusion may be worked by plac-
ing the pencil between the lips and
then moving the under lip to one side,
causing the pencil to feel like two.
More curious than any of these is the
one where the foreinger is crossed
over the little finger behind the other
two and then applied to the end of the
nose. Not only can you feel two noses,
but one of them seems to be about an
inch longer than the other. This last
sensation is caused by the fact that
we do not ordinarily feel the edge of
any object with these two fingers at
the same time unless the part felt with
the little finger projects beyond the
part felt by the forefnger.-St Louis

SAY MARRIAGE is ILLEGAL.

Trenton.-Through a letter sent to
the local press by ex-Mayor John
Briest, the discovery has been made
that Acting Mayor John D. Howell
had no legal right to marry Miss Mary
Ankel Birch, daughter of a rich car
rlage builder of Burlington, to Selig-
man Abel Myers of New York city.
Some lawyers here declare that this
leaves the couple not legally married.
The lawyers hold that the section
of the city charter which puts on the
president of the common council all
the duties of the mayor simply with
in the city charter, and in no wise
can be constructed to give the power
to marry to the acting mayor because
that power comes from distinct state
statute, which says who may perform
the marriage ceremony. It is under
stood that word has gone to the cou-
pie on their honeymoon of the diff
culty.-New York Times.

Lord Kelvin and the Gable.

1t is perhaps not generally known
that the success Of the Atlantic cable
was due to the calculations and ex-
periments Of the late Lord Kelvin, at
that time plain William Thomson. He
discovered that the current through a
long cable would arrive gradually at
the receiving end and devised the ap-
paratus which rendered 1t possible to
utilize such a current for making the
Morse signals. 1t was through disre-
gard Of his theoretical predictions that
the first Atlantic cable, in 1853, was
ruined by too powerful currents. With
out his mirror galvanometer to trans
late into visible signals the delicate
impulses received through the cable
the enterprise would have been a com.
plete failure.

Countermanded.

A very devout clergyman had Just

they seemed TO be worthy folk and not
overburdened with this worlds goods,
he prayed, among other things, for
their material prosperity and besought
the Lord to greatly increase the mans
business, laying much stress on this
point.
In filling out the blanks it became
necessary to ask the man his business,

MINE TIMBERS.
They Add Eight Cents to the Cost Of
Each Ton Of Anthracite.


Each Ton Of Anthracite.
The cost Of every ton of anthracite Is
increased cents by the expense of the
mine timbers. To supply these tim
bers, says the Vegetarian Magazine,
requires each year the product of ap-
proximately 10000 acres Of forest.
Timber Is used for cross ties for
tram roads in the main haulage ways
as wooden rollers and as props. A set
of gangway timber consists of two
legs. commonly nine or ten feet long
and about thirteen inches in diameter.
and a collar six or seven feet long.
These sets are placed on an average at
Intervals Of five feet. One gangway
frequently contains 1000 sets, and ten
gangways to coliery is not an un-
usual number.
The average life of the timber is
hardly above two years. Forty-five per
cent Of the tlmbers are destroyed by
decay, while breakage, wear and in
sects destroy the remainder. BY peel
ing the timbers and properly seasoning
them and especially by giving them
a treatment in oils or chemical salts
their length Of service is materially in

Eioht Thousand Jaekies March.

San Francisco.-Eight thousand blue
Jackets and marines-the largest
armed force the American navy has
ever put ashore in time Of peace or
war-were landed Thursday from the
combined Atlantic and Pacific fleets,
now lying in the harbor, and marched
through the streets Of San Francisco
in the most notable parade the city has
ever known.
For four miles and half. along
streets lined and canopied with colors
and in review of never endins
crowd. the fighting men OF the fleets
made their way to the martial tunes
of their shipmate bands and to cheers
that began with the first command TO
march and ended only when the sailor
men had again embarked in the small
boats that returned them to the bat
tleships and armored cruisers in the
roadstead.
Twenty-Five hundred soldiers OF the
regular army. in full dress array, gra-
ciously acted as an escort to the Wis
iting men of the sea and were literally
applsuded. Rear Admiral Evans, com
manding the fleets. and the six other
rear admirals in command OF squad
-ons and divisions rode in carriages.
