NOT VISIBLE TO ALL MANKIND.
Sights and Sounds in the Cathedral of
Mems Comradeship.

When you enter it you hear a sound
"a sound as of mighty poem chant
ed. Listen long enough and you will
learn that it is made up of the beating
of human hearts, of the nameleSs mu-
sic of mems souls-that is, If you have
ears. If you have eyes you will pres
emily see the church itself-a looming
mystery of many shapes and shadows,
leaping sheer from floor to dome. The
work of no ordinary builder! The pill
lars of it go up like the brawny trunks
of heroes; the sweet human flesh OF
men and women is nodded about its
bulwarks; strong, impregnable; the
faces of little children laugh out from
every cornerstone; the terrible span
and arches of it are the joined hands
of comrades; and up in the heights
and spaces there are inscribed the
numberless musings of all the dream
ers of the world. 1t is yet building,
building and built upon. Sometimes
the work goes forward in deep dark
ness sometimes in binding light;
now beneath the burden of unutterable
anguish; now to the tune of great
laughter and heroic shoutings like the
sound of thunder. Sometimes in the
silence of the night time one may hear
the hammerings of the comrades at
work up in the dome-the comrades
who have climbed ahead.-From The
Servant in the House"

A Wrong Attitude.

Hundreds of working girls to-day,
who are toiling to support aging par.
ents, or to aid younger children, are
incomparably superior to many of the
aristocrats of earth, because they are
developing character-which is the
only thing in this life that counts in
the great scheme.
But the working girl and man who
are filled with envy and hatred toward
the rich are not to be admired or re
spected merely because they labor.
If you work only because you must,
and hate your work. and hate every
man who has wealth and leisure, do
not imagine your labor makes you
worthier than his wealth in the eyes
of the Creator, for it does not.
Whether you are poor or rich is of
small consideration in the long run,
but what You are il character and
principle is of eternal Importance.

AS EXPLAINED BY THE GUIDE.
Garrulous Old Woman Found Out
What Caused Streak on Water.

The garrulous old woman in the
stern of the boat had pestered the
guide with her comments and ques-
lions ever since they had started Her
meek little husband, who was hunched
toad-like in the bow, fished in silence.
The old woman had seemingly ex-
hausted every possible point in fish
and animal life. woodcraft and per-
sonaI history when she suddenly es-
pied one of those curious paths of
oily, unbroken water frequently seen
on small lakes which are ruffied by a
light breeze.
"Oh, guide, guide,' she exclaimed,
'what makes that funny streak in the
water-No, there-Right over therei"
The guide was busy rebaiting the
old gentleman's hook and merely num-
hled tU-m-mm."
Guide repeated the old woman in
tones that were not to be denied, look
right over where I'm pointing and tell
me what makes that funny streak in
the water"
The guide looked up from his bait
ing with a sigh.
That? Oh, that's where the road
went across the ice last winter

Question of Precedence.

Recently a dispute was raised as to
whether a certain lawyer or a certain
doctor was to have precedence at a
function at which both were to play
prominent parts. 1t was impolitic to
allow either of these two men to be
offended. While the discussion was
under way as to which was to be
seated next the speaker, an old poll
tician in the room, said the discussion
was one which he thought he could
settle by giving them the words of the

been the case for more than two
weeks, nothing in the steer class
this week has been strictly prime

So. so, top heifers $500, bulk of
cows and heifers 1928, bulls
$500 to rs, calves $3.50 to

feeders has been light for ten
days, account of scarcity of sup
plies, and while the market is
strong at the top notch of the
season, packers have outbid
country buyers in the last week
for feshy feeders. Stockers
sell mainly at 1913 to $4.75,
feeders $4. so to S.. %.
Packers saw an opportunity to
force lower prices of hogs yes
terday and successfully grasped
it; but the same sort of effort met
with less success to-day. An
estimate of %, 900 hogs here this
morning. which was later raised
several thousand, took the cour-
age out of salesman for awhile,
and early sales were 10 lower.
Later the market developed
more strength, and sales at the
close were nearly steady with

packers droves costing only

day. Top to-day was $5.95,
heavy hogs $3.50 to $685., med
Jun weights $3.50 to $3.50, lights

In Italy, where social life, as in
France, is taken somewhat more seri-
ously than with us, it is usual for the
women prominent in society to re-
ceive in the evening. One evening a

To Avoid Taking Gold.

Persons who take cold easily can
greatly strengthen the entire respira-
tory tract by bathing the chest and
neck morning and night with cold salt
water; by drawing" the salt water
into the nostrils and expelling it from
the mouth, and by taking deep inhala-
lions of fresh air before an open win
dow, expanding the chest and holding
the air as long as possible, then slowly
exhaling it. Do this morning and night
for ten minutes, and all tendency to
colds will vanish; besides you will
notice a tremendous improvement in
your health and appearance.
