NERVES SHOULD BE TRAINED
Worry, III Temper and ,OverWcrk Are Simply Bad Habits Which Can
 Be Corrected.

We hear women talk of nerves! nerves," as though they looked upon them as their greatest foes. All the physical pleasures of life are brought to us through our nerves. and even the higher joys of the 1ntellectual and the spiritual life we become aware of only through the medium of feeling, and for this reason alone it behooves one to keep one's nerves in normal, healthful and responsive condition.
 The fact that the nervous system is amenable to training and that it's hab- it's can be unerringly cultivated at one's own will, and under one's own direction, or with outside assistance if necessary, Is fact of growing inn portance. This is so because the re- cent work of scientific men is show ing us to what minute degree nerve habits can be controlled and also be- cause especially in America, our climate and our modern civilization are making greater demands upon nervous force and contribute to the unconscious formation of detrimental nervous habits.
 Worry, i'll temper, haste, laziness. overwork, selfishness. egotism and dis trust are in many cases bad habits of the nerves.-From the Delineator.

AS HIS MISTRESS HAD DONE.
Chinese Cook, Like All His Race,
 Capable Only of Initiating the Acts of Others.

Chinese need to be taught to be more self-reliant,' said the woman who employs Chinese cook. "The other day I ordered my cook to make . pudding for dinner. stopping a min ute to see if he followed my instruc- tions, for I had taught him to make this particular pudding. He had seen me smell the eggs before putting them into a bowl and he began by putting the first egg to his nose. He seemed on the right road, so left the kitchen for a minute. Returning I discovered that he had used five eggs instead of three as I had taught him. Taking him to task for not following my in- structions he answered Yes, three here (pointing to the bowD two here Cndicating where he had thrown the others). Same as you
 '1t dawned on me that when I had taught him to make the pudding had found the second and third eggs that I had broken to be bad and had thrown both away. He had simply done what he had seen me do-after smelling the second and third egg hs had thrown them away

SUNDAY OBSERVANCE.
Rev. J. J. Curtin Explains the obli-
 sation of Attending Church on Sum-

At the dedication of the St. Law renee Catholic chapel at Savfn Rock, Sunday, the sermon was preached by the Rev. J. J. Curtin, pastor of St. Francis xavier's church of Water bury The New Haven Palladium had the following concerning the sermon: He took as his text the third com Imandment. Remember that thou keep very account that the chapel was built, he said. It was for prayer and sac
 rifice. In these days we do not enter tain the same respect for the Lords day as years ago. Going back to the early days, he told of how seldom it was that any Of the neighbors were not seen regularly every Sunday mora ing on their way to church. It was only sickness or death that would pre-
 vent them from attending the services. There were few holidays then either. But now things have changed. The people have more holidays. on which he believes they could get their much
 needed rest or recreation. The cause of many people not attending church was the bad example set by their neighbors who have not the faith or
 who forget their duty to God.
 It was not uncommon, he said. to hear men glory in the beauties of na- ture and say that with fine weather
 no one should be indoors. They should be in the hills. fields or woods. That, he said, was the doctrine of the "easy- going Christians. In answer are the words of the Lord himself. saying that the Sabbath should be kept holy.
 There are many people, he said, who wish to enjoy the sunshine, go into the woods, in the hills, or even to
 Savin Rock without first bending the
 knee to Almighty God, saying that they will make up for it in the winter,
 fall or spring when they are unable to go out. But, no matter where one
 goes, one can always find a church, built to fight off the enemy who never goes on a vacation.
 In conclusion, he said that the holy
 sacrifice would be offered Up in the
 chapel once every Sunday and perha ps
 after next week twice. It was built
 in order that the people there and
 those who go to that section for their
 vacations might be given chance to Cffer up devotion.

Slang.

Slang words and phrases are pio- neers of the language to be. Some of these pioneers die on the plains, not vir1le enough to cross the centuries. and the purists rot with them. The really apt slang words inherit the earth. the people and the dictionaries
 They are born on the athletic field or in the stress of crowded life, where short cut speech is a necessity. You ind them first in the yellow journals and the mouths of babes
 If you are responsible for any of the babes you have te be a purist pro tenn. Don't fret too hard, You are merely hearing language in the making. Ten years settles a word in the dictionary --or in Ob1ivion.-From the Nautilus.

 Often the poet returned, "but the trouble of it is that when I read it over the next day I can't for the life of me make out what the notes are that meant to take.
