SOME BUSTER BROWN PHILOSOPHY

Resolved-That the sunrise with its
glorious effulgence of light and color,
with its awakening of birds songs and
busy life, means another day has come.
Another day means another chance, a
chance to forget yesterday and COM
mence all over again. Forgive your
self and others for the mistakes of yes
terday and resolve that today you'll be
on time like the sun and happy and hon
est like the birds. that you'll shake the
crouch and do unto others as YOU d
have them do unto you. What is the
use of bothering about tomorrow
hasn't come. Today is a good honest
day, and If you use today right, tomor-
row will have better chance for YOU.
The world owes no one a living. If
you've got chance, you've got all
that's coming to you. It's up to you.

THE GHOST OF CARMACK.

The ghost of Carmack walked in the
State of Tennessee on Thursday. Well
may Patterson have shuddered-
Why thy canonized bones hearsed In 5satb
have burst their ceremeats: why the sepnlchre
Wherein we saw thee quietly inurn'd
Hath oped his ponderous jaws
To cast thee Up again."
Patterson and his gang were over
thrown. The people of the State of
Tennessee repudiated them utterly.
The decent sense of the community nut
him and his sort down in that Common
wealth forever. 1t is victory for law
and order in which all just men every
where may well rejoice; victory which
will carry CONSERVATION, perhaps, into
the camps of convicts, but a victory
which erects the Bench beyond the
reach of the brothel and breaks the
hold OF machine politics upon the throat
of puissant people. God he praised
for this goodly deliverance. Times

1.-THE ROSARY OF MY. YEARS. .

Some reckon their age by years,
Some measure their life by art,
| But some tell their days by the flow of
their tears,
And their life by the means of their
heart.
The dials of earth may show
The length, not the depth, Of years
Few or many may come, few or many
may go;
But our time is best measured by tears.
All! not by the silver gray
That creeps through the sunny hair.
And not by the scenes we pass on our
way
And not by the burrows the finger of care
In forehead and face have made;
Not so do We count our years:
Not by the sun of the earth-hut the
shade
OF our souls and the fall of our tears.
For the young are ofttimes old,
Though their brow be bright and fair,
While their blood beats warm, their
hearts lie cold
Ger them the springtime-bu wint er
is there.
And the old are ofttimes young,
When their hair is thin and white:
And they sing in age as in youth they
sung,
And they laugh, for their cross was light.
But by bead and bead l tell
The rosary of my years,
from a cross to crown they lead
It's WE'LL
And they are blessed with blessing of
tears.
Better day of strife
Then century of sleep;
Give me instead of long stream of life
The tempest and tears of the deep.
A thousand years may foam
On the blllows of all the years;
But never the foam brings the brave
bark home
1t reaches the haven through tears.
Father RYAN.

REGULARITY OF FISH MIGRATION,

The regularity with which fish mgra.
tions occur is very nearly miraculous
One such migration is the occasion of
an annual holiday and feast at Samoa.
On certain day in October there an
pear of the island tremendous shoals
OF small but very delicious fish, resemb-
ling whitebait. The still waters of the
lagoon are alive with the tiny creatures.
The shoals take about 4S hours to pass:
then they are gone and are seen no
more until the same day in the follow
ing year.
The Mediterranean funny is almost
equally regular in it's movements. The
Spanish fishermen know to a day when
TO post the lookout on the high cliffs
above the Mediterranean, and the sen
tries are rarely on duty for more than
AZ hours before the blue waters foam
under the rush of the great silver mon
sters. Then, for two or three days. if
is one tremendous killing. and by the end
of that time the men have made their liv-
ing for at least six months to come.
The oily pilchard that forms the year
ly prize of our Cornish fishermen. is
not quite so regular in it's migrations.
but. like the herring, it appears about
the same date, year after year.
The most valuable prize of the Dan
ube fishing boats is the Danube herring.
a fine, fat, oily fish. Twice a wear a
great shoal appears in the mouth of the
river. This first comes in May, the
other in October. They run up as far
as GIurgevo. distance of 1870 miles.
never farther. Why they should enter
the muddy Danube no one knows. II
IS not for spawning purposes. Nor can
any one tell what becomes Of the shoals |
at other times. They are believed to
come right up from the Mediterranean.
One thing is certain-they do not live
in the Black sea. for accent in the
shadows along the coast, the Black
sea is almost devoid Of fish life.
In the same way, it is not known
what becomes of salmon when they
take their annual holiday in salt water.
They simply vanish into the ocean. and
it is very seldom indeed that one is ever
caught IN a sea fisherman's net.
Whales travel enormous distances.
In eight weeks they have been known
to cover over 5000 miles.
Eels are the most extraordinary fish.
Every eel once in its life migrates to
the deep ocean, and there, safe below
the reach of nets or lines or any other
enemies, spawns. There are two an
nual runs" of eels-one in April, one
IN October. Eels always move at
night, and, unlike other fish. always
swim with the current Men who net
eeis on the muddy east coast rivers
know exactly when the fish will run.

MUCH LESS FEVER THAN LAST YEAR

Typhoid fever is claiming a much
smaller toll in Virginia this year than
IL did last year, according TO reports of
the State Health Department. Physi-
clans in rural Virginia reported a total
of 1904 cases of typhoid during the
month of July, 1909. while during last
month they reported only 1927 cases.
showing a decline of !. l57 in the total
number Of cases.
This decrease in the amount of fever
is considered by health officers to be the
greatest victory yet gained for better
health in the country districts. A sta
tistician expressed his opinion that the
net saving to the State by thisdecrease
in the amount of typhoid would not be
less than six hundred thousand dollars
to say nothing of the sorrow and death
averted.
When asked how he accounted for
the decrease in the cases of typhoid
the State Health Commissioner said:
1T is not impossible that there may be
some obscure climatic influence with
which we are not familiar, but gener-
ally speaking, it is safe to say that the
better education of the people regard
ing the disease is responsible for the
difference. We have striven to give
them full information as to the spread
OF typhoid, and have told them that
where sewerage is cared for, flies kept
from the house. proper precautions
taken and good water secured, there is
little danger of typhoid. The people
of the State. acting on this informa-
tion, have done the rest. AS they see
the great advantages already gained.
they can be counted on to still further
reduce the amount of disease. The field
Inspectors of the Department are ready
to Investigate Immediately any epidemic
of typhoid that appears and can be
called on at any time."

"KETCH-AWLS" FROM EVERYWHERE

Measure the bunch you go with and
then be sure the world will keep you in
that class. Better live a solitary life
than be content with a common herd of
scrubs who have no intellectual nor re-
finedambitions.
Whenever you hear a man glorifyinp
the past and gloating over the good old
days. you may be sure that mans phys
icai and intellectual powers are waning.
and that he is struggling farther and
farther behind in the rush of the world 3
progress. The best thing about the
good old days is that they have not a
return ticket.-Heathsville Echo.

Each profered bit of JOY slip by -

ROW STOPS BALL GAME
Last Game In the Texas League
Pennant Scene of Fight.
Player Mitchell and Umpire Settley
Clash and Umpire Sustains In
jury From Encounter.

Houston, Tex, Sept. 6. - The last
game in the Texas League pennant
race between Houston and Galveston
had progressed nicely until the first
half of the second inning, when Mitch
ell and Umpire Settley, while James
was at bat, had some words, suddenly
Mitchell turned on the umpire and
knocked him down.
Settley arose and ran toward short
position, when Mitchell threw the ball
at him, striking him in the back of
the head rendering him unconscious.
The crowd surged from the grand
stand, the Galveston team climbed
into the wagon and went to town. The
police cleared the field and the Hous-
ton team took their positions ready to
play. G. +. Shaw was selected by the
management as an umpire and Calves
ton, not appearing, forfeited the game
to Houston, 8 to o. Settley is reported
to not be internally injured.
