FATHER KNEW WHAT TO DO.

An Italian with his wife and two
little children got into New York
subway train bound uptown. There
we're seats enough, so the wife with
one child in arms sat down. The
man carrying the other infant, pre-
pared to take seat.
The moment he sat down the little
girl in his arms set up cry. She
wouldn't stop until the man got up.
For time, as long as he remained
standing, she was squiet. The moment
he started again to be seated she
walled again.
So he had to remain standing.
The child then reached for the cord
by which the signals are given from
car to car. 1t was too high above her
head. So she cried again.
The father tried to divert her at
tention to the straps as being more
worthy of ber notice. But she
wouldn't be appeased. What was
he to do?
Soon answered. He turned the
baby over his knee as he sat down
firmly and gave her something to cry
for. A shocked look came over that
little girls face and then, after a few
last howIs, she was very silent.
Her father sat there with look as
of one who has solved problem.

AN ELEPHANTS MEMORY.

A veterinary surgeon told the fol-
towing story concerning the intelli-
gence and gratitude of an elephant !:
Some years ago, he said, was
summoned by the proprietor of ia
nous show to come to his stables to at
tend female elephant. The great
creature had stepped on a nail or
piece of metal, which had penetrated
her foot. She was in great agony,
and long before reached the elephant
stables 1 could hear her trumpeting
with pain.
On entering, 1 found her standing
on three legs, swinging the sore foot
slowly backward and forward. / felt
rather nervous as I approached the
beast, but the keeper told me to have
no fear. The elephant, he explained,
was a very intelligent creature.
As 1 bent down to examine the
wounded foot I felt light touch on
my hair. Turning, I saw the great
trunk behind me, and it suggested
dangerous consequences.
II shall have to cut deep" said
to.the keeper, who thereupoD spoke
to the elephant in some tongue un-
known to me. Then he shouted
"Cut away !"
1 made one cash with the knife,
and felt the trunk tighten on my hair
in a way that made my blood run
cold. However, 1 screwed up my
courage and again applied the knife.
In a short time 1 had lanced the alb
scess, sprayed the foot and bound it
up. Evidently the elephant felt i'm
mediate relief, for it relaxed its grasp
on my hair and drew a long breath.
Several months later I happened to
be in the neighborhood of the show,
and sought out the keeper to inquire
after my former patient.
She was we'll and hearty, he told
me, and invited me to come and see
her.
On approaching the elephant she
looked at me at first with indifference,
then steadily and with interest. Then
she stretched out her trunk and laid
it caressingly on my head. Finally
wonderful to relate-she lifted her
foot, now thoroughly healed and
showed it to me. She had not for
gotten.

HAD THE SAME IDEAS.

The good American farmer called
upon doctor and was ushered into
the library. At once the we'll. filled
book shelves drew his attention.
care you fond of reading?" asked
the doctor, noting the wandering
gaze.
"Well, yes" returned the farmer,
modestly.
II should be pleased to lend you
book to take home with you," said
the other. 'Just take anyone that
you think you'd like to read"
20, I'm no good at selectin' re-
piled the old man. "You pick one
out DOCTOR"
So the doctor, in a spirit of fun,
gave the farmer a book written by
Plato. The old man went his way,
and at the end of a week reappeared
with the book under his arm.
"Well," queried the doctor, "did
you read the book3"
eyes, 1 did," was the emphatic
answer.
"An6 what did you think of itl"
''It was fust rate" responded the
farmer; GIVE read it through from
kiver to kiver. 1 never heard tell of
this fellow Plato before, but, all the
same, I'm glad to find that the old
chap has been writing up some Of my
very best ideas"

DON'T BONNET THE HORSE.

This is the season of the year when
the drivers and the owners of horses
purchase bonnets for their animals out
of a laudable feeling of humanity.
The custom is now general and one
sees the gentle family steed and the
big Belgian dray horse millinered
alike with protective covering against
the sun.
But hats for horses are doubtful
kindness. Baron Henri d Anchald,
French scientist, has been making
tests of the temperature in equine
headgear. The experiments were
made when the temperature was at 79
degrees Fahrenheit in the shady open.
Bareheaded horses standing in the
sun were found to have temperature
of sc degrees beneath their forelocks.
When straw hats were put on the
thermometer registered 9S. Under
canvas it was 1903. A horse trotting
in the sun while bare had tempera-
ture of 80 beneath the forelock. Un-
der straw the thermometer rose to 81
and beneath cloth to 100 degrees.
The conclusion is that the bonnets
prevent the movement Of the air and
allow of the storing of heat.
The horse, then, is better off with
out hat than with one. Probably
the sensible and humanitarian thing
to do is to sponge the animals head
at frequent intervals and see that he
stands in the sun as little as need be.

VALUE OF FRUIT EATING.

A writer in the Family Doctor says
in regard to fruit eating: 1--WE are
all quite ready to agree that fruit
forms food of great value, but we
display great lack of judgment in the
manner in which we take advantage
of its valuable qualities. Most peo-
pie, instead of taking fruit on an
empty stomach, or in combination
with simply grain preparations, such
as bread, eat it with oily foods-gen.
orally cream. Then, perhaps, the
whole mass is washed down with tea,
coffee, or other liquid. To do its
best work fruit should be eaten
either on an empty stomach or else
with bread merely, never with vege-
tables. Eaten in the morning, fruit
is very refreshing and serves as
natural stimulus to the digestive or
gans but even when eaten at the
proper time, its good effects are gen.
orally counter. balanced by its being
saturated with sugar. Very few
kinds of fruit, if thoroughly ripened,
require any sugar, particularly ifeaten
raw"

QUESTION OF LIKING PEOPLE.

DO you like people for what they
are, or for what they do? I'm afraid
like them for what they are-and,
after all, that really isn't quite fair,
is it?
The other day I spent the after
noon with friend of mine. She is
a sweet woman, bright woman, and
a good humored woman, so my after
Moons with her are like the shadow
of a great rock in a thirsty land.
This particular afternoon was a
failure-there was another woman at
the party.
She was pretty, vain, talkative,
self. centered woman, with prejudices
in place of opinions and dislikes in
stead of ideals. She talked and she
futtered and she contradicted and
she tore the nice long, quiet after
noon into little bits of scraps-and 1
could hardly wait till she had gone
to ask my friend what in the world
she saw about a little futter budget
like that to like.
"Do you find her interesting" I
said, cor amusing, or do you owe her
money, or what ?"
"No," said my friend, 81 do not
find her interesting. do not find
her amusing, and 1 do not owe her
money or anything else, but she's a
woman of fine character, and though
don't like her bit, / love her.

NOT TRUE TO NATURE.

A friend once took Mark Twain to
see very beautiful and valuable
piece of sculpture. 1t represented a
young woman curling her hair, and
the workmanship was such that the
owner other companions stood open

THE LAWYER as A MAN OF POWER.


Few men in the community have
as many things of sacred Importance
intrusted to them as the lawyers.
When we try to fully understand
this claim we must remember that no
true conception of the lawyers infu-
ence can be found by considering only
trial lawyers. There are many fa-
mousandinhuential lawyerswhonever
appear in the courts in the usually
understood capacity of trial law
yer"
The lawyer has to deal with the
relationships of men. He is contin.
ually trying to answer such questions
as, Who is guilty and how guilty is
he? Who is responsible and how
responsible is he? What motive was
at the bottom of an action? What
disposition should be made of proper
ty? Who is entitled to damage
money? What is the meaning of a
will? To whom should divorce be
granted? What is legally right for
the weakl These are the most sac
red interests of life and all of these
and numberless more come in a legion
of different forms into the hands of
the lawyer.
The lawyers character will large
ly determine his activities because
his mind, his methods, his feelings,
his aims and principles will all take
color from what the man truly is in
his innermost being.
IT sterling character and sensitive
conscience arc not present, the evil
man in society may be assisted, pen
alties held from guilty parties, loop
holes opened for the escape ofroeues
the tracks of grafters covered, and
the cry of the weak be lost in the
noisy machinery of legal shops, and
cruelty and tyranny hold as slaves
the voiceless helpers of the world.
In contrast to this, the great noble.
lawyer of character high, principles
true, and with conscience sensitive to
the calls of the divine, moves contin-
ually upon the fundamental laws of
nature, THAT man should live on,
hurt no one and render unto every
man his DUE"
We must remember that all trou-
BILE as q rule has two sides and that
men who handle these troubles of
human beings will not always find
themselves on the side Of innocence
and right; but lawyer can stand SO
firm for noble life that he will be
able to apply the right methods, mo-
tives and actions in behalf of what
ever right there may be found on
even the wrong or guilty side of
question.
In world of human laws, social
customs, legal rights with penalties
and forfeits, numerous and trying,
justice demands that even the guilty
man shall have the best possible
chance to be seen and known Alright.
He is truly lawyer of power and
a man to be honored who would
rather lose case than lose the truth,
who would rather know the Joy of a
clear cOnScience than to deprive any
one from that which by the law be-
longs to him. True character is not
revealed by tricks and that shrewd-
ness which takes advantage of weak
ness is sure to unsettle the founda-
tionS of true nobility.-Our Dumb

"Well, tell us. How was Adam

For 1.-THE Vi
THE MILLER.
BY MILTON HEATHcoTE.

Close beside the streamlet turning
With the water DER it churning,
Stood the stately, sturdy overshot,
Thing of beauty
Doing duty,
In the day or night, when called on, ,faterng not,
fndustriously working,
NeHin Grinding i1zeI out the golden grain.
Till evening late,
Shut the gate,
Then to rest again.
Then, there stood the jolly Miller
With his hand upon the tiller,
Thinking of his Mathematics,
Or doing problems in Quadratics,
Poring DER his Mensuration,
Working out his fifth Equation.
Wrote his thoughts and stored them meath the
Where the leaves
Grew old and musty,
Covered DER with grim and dusty.
Marks of age
Show themselves on every page.
Those dusty leaves, their story tell,
or maid, or matron, beau or belle,
OF hunting dog, or racing horse.
That rushed with speed along the gorse
OF solitude,
Or deadly feud,
Of indian in his wigwam rude.
OF doughty knight who welded sword.
OF Robin Hood and robber horde;
Those leaves they tell
Their story, and they tell it well.
But, cones the Miller, gone his day,
His life has passed from earth away;
Free from all care and pickering strife,
From all the ills of worldly life;
His body lies
Beneath the skies.
His soul is with the blest,
His tired hands at rest.
But the Mill will rumble,
And the waters tumble,
In their merry tumble.
Other hands will on 1t wait,
Other hands will shut the gate.

WHY he KNEW HE WAS ALIVE.

A certain young mans friends
thought he was dead, but he was
only in a state of coma. When, in
ample time, to avoid being buried, he
showed signs of life, he was asked
how it seemed to be dead.
"Dead :" he exclaimed. II wasn't
dead, knew all that was going on.
And knew I wasn't dead, too, be-
cause my feet were cold and I was
hungry"
'But how did that fact make you
think you were still alive?" asked
one of the curious.
"Well, this way; I knew that if I
were In heaven 1 wouldn't be hun

nv feet wouldn't be cold"

MEET VIOLENT DEATHS.

OGDEN, May 4--According to the re-
ports received at the office of Supt.
Whitney of the Utah division Monday
two deaths We're reported as occur
ring on the line at Wyoming points.
Both of the men met death by being
killed by engines on Sunday evening.
The first death reported was that of
Thomas III. Hampson, a round house
attendent at Rawlins and whose head
was dtecapltated. There was no wit
ness to the accident and it is very hard
to tell how the accident occurred. AS
near as could be learned the man was
riding to the round house on the front
of one engine and in some manner
slipped from the pilot and fell under the
wheels The body was subsequently
found by fellow-employes Supt. Whit
rey has ordered an investigation OF
the accident.
The victim of the second accident was
Eric Finliander at Rock Springs, Wyo.,
and his death was very similar to
that of Ha,npson at RaIwlins. AS near
as could be learned the man had been
on Il protracted spree and was walking
along the railroad track when a freight
engine was passing and he stepped in
front of 1t and was Immediately crush
ed to death. No blame is attached to
the railroad company as the case looks
like deliberate suicide
