Queer Recommendations.

There are many names of places in England that puzzle the stranger. Happisburgh, in Norfolk, for instance, Is pronounced Hazeboro, Abergavenny simply drops a syllable and becomes Abervenny, and 1t Is alleged that St. Neots sounds more like Shoots than anything else. Cirencester seems to vary from Sister to Sizeter. In Suf- folk Waldrngfield is "Wunnerfup and Chelmondiston "Chimston," while in the adjoining county of Norfolk Hun- stanton is "IIunston,' and in the west country Badgeworthy is "Badgery" and Cornwood "Kernood.' Hunting donshire claims the purest English, but they call Papworth "Parpor." And not far away is another village of beauty. The motorist turned upon a rough road and asked the intelligent laborer where 1t would take him. That road,' said the honest country man, wiping his brow, will take you to 'Ell, sir" The courageous motor ist went on and found Ellsworth, which Is pronounced "Elser." Manchester Guardian.

The Dream of the Kew.

Some small article had been lost-I forget now what; let us say key-be. longing to one of two sisters who were travelling together. It could now here be found. But one night one of the sisters dreamed that she saw the key in the pocket of her travelling bag. She told this dream on waking to the other. And have you looked in the pocket?' the sister asked. "NO, I have not" said she, "for the very good reason that there Is no pocket in my travel ing bag" "Wen.' said the other, there is pocket in mine. l will just have look there on the chance And there the key was found The infer ence is that the dreamer had seen with the eye of sense, though not with the eye of observation, the key put into the pocket Even when the key was so found she had no recollection of seeing it placed there, but the brain had unconsciously recorded the sensa- ton. In course of sleep it had stun
 bled on that record, and by good luck the sleeper on awaking chanced to re member the mental operation that had taken place during sleep. 1t is sin gular and almost alarming reflection that our brains are stored with count less such records of which we know association of ideas or some peculiar mental state brings them to our no uce.-Westminster Gazette.

Don'ts.

Don't attempt to punish all your ene- mics at once. You can't do large business with a small capital. Don't say II told you so." Two to one you never said word about it. Don't worry about another mans business. A little seishness is sometimes com mendable. Don't imagine that you can correct all the evils in the world, A grain of sand is not prominent in desert. Don't mourn over fancied grievances. Blde your time, and real sorrow will come. Don't throw dust in your teachers eyes. It will only in jure the pupil. Don't worry about the ice crop. Keep aool and you will have enough. Don't borrow a coach to please your wife. Better make her a little sulky. Don't imagine that every thing is weakening. Butter is strong in this market. Don't publish your acts of charity. The Lord will keep the account straight. Don't color meerschaums for living. It is sim ply dyeing by inches.-Mark Twain.

MADE TO ORDER
DIPLOMATS
DEMANDS GOOD
BODIES AS WE'LL AS HEADS
AND ALSO STARTS TRAINING
SCHOOL COURSE.

Washington, June 25.-Applicants
for the diplomatic service are now
being examined physically as we'll as
mentally and politically. and those
who would shine as future ministers
and ambassadors will find 1t to their
advantage to consult beauty doctor
before visiting Washington and put
ting in an appearance at the state
department. Just now there are IA
young men being examined by ma
val surgeon to ascertain If they are
sound Of wind and leg, heart and
lungs. If they have any impedi-
ments in their speech, harelips, teeth
misplaced or lost, or noses awry as
the result of football combats, 1t is
quite probable that they will wait
long time for their credentials to
the court of st. James, the republic
of France or the blossom bedecked
throne of the emperor of China.
The IA young men who are now
submitting to physical examinations
are what is left of class of IS that
took the first written examinations
for places in the diplomatic service.
The mere fact that they answered
the questions on paper successfully
does not give them any assurance
whatever that they will ever get
places abroad, for they may not suit
in other ways. Many man who can
reel off learning from the point Of
his pen is a perfect idiot when it
comes to the affairs of the world.
For the purpose Of training these
would-be diploamts in their duties,
Secretary Knox has started a school
at the state department. John H.
Gregory secretary of the legation
at Nicaragua, who has experienced
at Managua in the last few months
all the troubles that secretary is
ever likely to inherit, even to perse-
cution by the government to which
| he is accredited. and the tampering
with official dispatches, Is one of the
teachers. G. Cornell Tarler, secre-
tary of the Cuban legation, Is an
other. John Barrett, director OF the
bureau Of American republics. who
has had extensive diplomatic expert
ence at various posts and has reason
to know the shortcomings Of the
junior members of the diplomatic
service, Is another.

FAvORS BONDING
THE NATION

Wenatchee, June %. Editor Daily
World-Dear: The news article in
the Daily World in which it is pro-
posed to ask congress to issue five
billion dollars worth of United States
bonds for internal improvement pur-
poses, certainly struck a responsive
chord in my heart. The extravagant
and reckless appropriations made by
congress for the purpose of construc-
ting the machinery of war does not
get much of my sympathy. After
long series of prodigious expenditures
by which to perpetuate the barbarous
and inhuman custom of destroying
property and slaughtering human be-
ings 1t is certainly refreshing to see
a move on foot to induce the govern
ment to take a more active part in
doing things that will not only bring
quick and large returns financially,
but will be of value to the country
and the people in civilizing way that
can not be estimated in dollars and
cents. There Is no question Of more
burning Importance before the people
right now than the reclamation of
lands, both arid and swamplands, the
conservation of natural resources and
the construction of decent roads. The
question of lands and roads especial
ly appeal to me. The former will
gives homes to the hundreds OF
thousands who need them and the
latter will facilitate commercial inter-
course and transportation. 1t Is
only matter of time until large
share of local travel will be done by
private conference.-the automobile
and with good roads connecting all
the important cities and great high
ways crossing and recrosing the con-
tinent. travel would become a pleas
ure whether trains run or not. Ten
million dollars will perhaps build
couple of thousand miles Of road and
pave 1t like a city street, and who
will say that 1t would not be worth
more to the country than single
Dreadnaught, which would WELD no
|civilizing influence, would cost a mill
lion dollars a year to maintain 1t and
would be ready for the junk pile

HONEYMOON ENDS
HAPPILY
AFTER FOUR THRILLING HOURS
AIR GAUGE AND LIGHT MISS
ING, LAND IN ORCHARD.

Pittsfield, Mass, June 25.-At
4:30 o'clock this morning the bal
loon Pittsf1eld, Heart of the Berk-
shires. in which Mr.. and Mrs. Roger
N. Burnham, who were married at
noon Saturday in Woods Hole, Cape
Cod, had chartered for their aerial
honeymoon trip, descended on the
farm of Ralph Gilkey at Holebrook,
IA miles from Boston common and
115 miles, air line, from Pittsfeld.
The honeymoon above the clouds
lasted just three hours and fifty min
utes, the ascension having been made
from the aero park here at 1910
o'clock this morning.
After getting away from the fren-
zied crowd of 5000 people who
threatened to imperil the lives of the
bridal couple and their pilot, by
jumping over the ropes into the dan
ger zone of explosion from a spark
of fire, the balloon lifted itself to
an elevation of $500 feet and then
began it's drift in total darkness.
Half a mile below the voyagers
could see electric lights of the town
Of Adams and North Adams, as the
balloon took northerly course.
Then all lights faded from below
and the worst thing that can hap
pen to a balloon pilot at night oc-
Cured. The statoscope, on which
the balloon pilot depends for the
knowledge of the rise or fall of the
. balloon, refused to work. Billy Van
Sleet, making his thirty-ffth ascen-
sion in one year, called for TISSUE
paper to test the direction of rise
and fall. Mrs. Burnham had in her
| travelling bag a package of papier
poudre, an imported preparation OF
flesh powder on thin paper, and Van
Sleet eagerly seized upon this to
make the rise and fall tests.
The party had scarcely been UP
an hour when the best of the two
electric fash lamps carried by the
aeronauts became exhausted and II
was only by the dim fash of the
other that the altitude could be as
certained
Honeymoon Breakfast at 8 a. m.
At 3 o'clock the bridal couple
who had been seated in the bottom
of the car for an hour, decided to
enjoy their first honeymoon break
fast. which consisted of sandwiches
and hot coffee from a thermos bot
tie and a little MADEIRA wine of the
vintage of 1887, which has been
around the world in the cabin of a
sailing vessel carried by a relative
of the bride.
About 4 o'clock, just as daylight
was breaking, Van Sleet discovered
a huge observatory and then water.
Later he found that this was the
Blue Hill observatory and the wa
ter was Boston bay. He prepared for
a descent and threw out the anchor
as they approached an orchard on
the Gilkey farm. The anchor held
on a tree and the balloon descended
so lightly there was not a jar as
the basket came to earth. The rip
cord was not used Mr.. and Mrs.
Burnham took photographs Of the
deaf1tion of the balloon and of the
pilot.
Fed Again by Farmer.
Mrs. Burnham insisted on assist
ing the pilot in packing the balloon
for shipment. Then they all went
to the Gilkey house, where the farm
er entertained them at breakfast.
