Fourteen Errors of Life.

The fourteen mistakes of life, Judge
Rentoul told the Bartholomew Club
are:
To attempt to set up our own stand
ard of right or wrong, and expect ev-
erybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment of
others by our own.
To expect uniformity of opinion in
this world.
To look for Judgment and experience
in youth.
To endeavor to mold all dispositions
alike.
Not to yield in unimportant trifes.
To look for perfection in our own ac-
tions.
To worry ourselves and others about
what can not be remedied.
Not to alleviate, if we can, all that
needs alleviatlon.
Not to make allowances for the weak
nesses of others.
To consider anything impossible that
we can not ourselves perform.
To believe only what our finite minds
can grasp.
To live as if the moment, the time,
the day were so important that it would
live forever
To estimate people by some outside
quality, for it is that within which
makes the man.-London Evening

DEEDS, NOT WORDS,
Staunton People Have Abso-
lute Proof Of Deeds at Home.

1t is not words, but deeds thatsprove
true merit.
The deeds of Doan's Kidney Pills,
for Staunton kidney sufferers. have
made their local reputation.
Proof lies in the testimony of Staun-
ton people who have been cured to stay
cured.

Staunton, Va, says: 81 used Doan's
Kidney Pills, and the results were sat
isfactory. Kidney complaint was
with me for long time and suffered
from severe pains in my back and
sides. STOPPING or lifting caused sharp
twings to dart through me and l had
to have assistance in getting out OF
bed. The kidney secretions were very
irregular in passage, and / had but
little control over them. i tried sew
eral advertised remedies, but received
no relief until procured Doan's Kid
ney Pills at Thomas Hogshead's drug
store. l continued taking Doan s
Kidney Pills until 1 was completely

POl1teneSS.

POliteness consists in cOncealing from
ther people the fact that they annoy
you.
If man springs up from his seat in
a crowded car to give 1t to a woman,
that is politeness. If he permits his
wife to drag a chair from one room into
the other, while he is smoking and
reading the evening paper, that is in
nocent absorption.
1t pays to be polite when it doesn't
cost anything.
Politeness originated in the Garden
of Eden, when Adam fell merely to
oblige Eve. (And yet they say that
man is selfshD
We should always be polite to our in
feriors-in the presence of our superiors.
Nothing is more effective.
The man who is truly polite never
forgets himself. Such man, if he is
obliged to kick another man down
stairs, will always see that his hat is
sent out to him.
Children are naturally impolite, un-
til they are taught that they cannot
hope to make much money without.
Always be polite when you are bor-
rowing money from friend. Remem-
Der that it doesn't cost anything to
give him the impression that you are
going to pay him back.
There are two kinds of politeness; po-
liteness to yourself and politeness to
others.
When you come home late at night,
for example, even if you are very tired,
always remove your hat and coat be-
fore getting into bed. 1t is little atten-
tions like this that constitute you a
gentleman. At the same time, do mo-
disturb your wife if you can possibly
avoid it. 1t is the height Of rudeness
to awaken sleeping lady.
The polite man is always welcome
everywhere. That is, almost every
where-except at bargain counter, a
fire, or financial panic.
Then he is de trop.-Thomas L. Mas
son, in Lippincott's.

THE NEW RAILROAD.

The State Corporation Commission
in Richmond lastweek issued charter
of incorporation to the Virginia West
ern Railroad, to build line estimated
in length at one hundred miles from a
point in Highland county, at the West
Virginia line to Clifton Forge The
new line may be part of the Balti-
more and Ohio system, or it may be an
independent line.
J. J. Stoutenburgh, of New York,
who was in sRichmond, asked regard
ing the connection of the new road
with that of any existing system, re-
piled that this was none of the public's
business. The new road, at the West
Virginia line, will connect with the
West Virginia Railway, which runs
from that point to Keyser, w. Va. 1t
was necessary to incorporate in the two
States, the road being all one. The en-
tire length of the line in the two states
will be 1856 miles.
In West Virginia the line will trav-
erse Mineral, Grant and Pendleton
c)nnties. In Virginia it will run
through Highland, Bath and Allegheny
counties. Construction will begin about
May l, and will last two years. The
estimated cost of the road will be about
ten million dollars. Connection will
be made with the Chesapeake and Ohio
at Covington and Clifton Forge, and
with the Baltimore and Ohio and the
Western Maryland at Keyser.
The road will be built by New York
syndicate which owns large tracts of
mineral lands in Virginia, West Vir-
ginia and Kentucky, and will be used
as an outlet for the production of these
properties. The principal offices of the
road will be at Clifton Forge. The
maximum capital stock is two hundred
thousand dollars; minimum, one hun
dred thousand. J. j. Stoutenburgh is
president; A. V. Huyler, of New York,
vice-presidenl; B. M. Boyle, New York,
secretary, and J. G. Ropes, New York,
treasurer. These men compose the
board of directors, together with B. III.

All Bleached Flour Now Ordered
Seized.

Washington.-Open defiance by mil
lers of bleached flour to heed the Gov
ernment's warning to cease the manu-
facture of that article of food, on pain
of its being seized, has led Secretary oi
Agriculture Wilson to take drastic ac-
ton to compel obedience to Federal
regulations.
An order has been issued by Secreta
ry Wilson to inspectors of the Depart.
ment of Agriculture to seize all of the
bleached flour in the country, and in
formation has been reached here that
as result of that action consignments
of bleached flour, comprising several
hundred carloads, were seized in the
west. Further seizures are expected
today.
The millers had been ordered to stoI
the manufacture of this kind of -four,
but it is said that some of them disre-
garded the secretary's command.
1t is supposed here that about 81 ,OOO,-
UUU WOTtIl VI olCdCACu HOul w c1o AAiohd-
factured during the last year, and that
most of what is remaining of it is now
believed to be in the East, especially
in and about New York, where further
seizures are looked for.
About year ago the Department OF
Agriculture, following an investigation
and experiments, decided that bleach
ed flour was injurious to health. Then
the secretary issued an order to prevent
the manufacture of such -four, but for
various reasons the millers were allow
ed six months to dispose of their stock.
Some of them obeyed the order, it is
said continued their operation, with
the result that Secretary Wilson de-
cided vigorous measures should be TAX

Announcement is made in Lynch
burg that the survey of the proposed
Virginia, Carolina & Western Rail-
way, has been completed, and the re-
port of the engineers is said to be his IL
ly satisfactory to the promoters. The
grades and curves are said to be excel
lent, and the cost of construction not
excessive. This survey provides for a
line from the James River Branch of
the &. q o. at Strathmore, the termi-
nus of the Virginia Air Line, now the
property of the c. & O., which con-
meets the James River Branch with
the main line. The road will be about
100 miles in length. While nothing
has been said by the promoters of this
line, the impression in Lynchburg is
that the G. & 0. is behind the project,
and that the road will not only be
built to Danville, but even tually into
North Carolina.

The damage was about 81, 900, and
there was TO insurance.
The fire was one of the most stub

it was difficult for patients in Belle

Some of the members thought that
the amount allowed for health pur-

pose suggested under the circumA
