Venice Had First Great Bank.

The first great bank in the world
was the Bank of Venice. established
in 1857, when the Queen City of the
Adriatic was at the head of the COM
merce OF the western world. At that
time the great current of the trade
between Europe and Asia passed
through the Persian gulf and the Red
sea to Alexandria, Egypt, and was car
ried in ships across the Mediterranean
sea and through the Adriatic to Ven
ice, where it was distributed to vari-
GUS parts of Europe. Venice was a
sort of %autocratic republic, founded
and supported by It's merchants, who
we're famed throughout the world for
their wealth and reliability. They
founded their bank, which was guaran-
teed by the government, and was held
in high credit in all the great cities on
the routes of trade. The word bank"
was derived from the Italian word
"banco," a bench or counter over
which the business was transacted.

Write cheerfuuy.

It seems quite impossible for some,
people to write a cheerful letter. One
feels instinctively that the reading Of a,
certain letter will give one a bad At of
the "blues," and it does. Why will
not people keep their gloomy thoughts
off paper? The unfortunate recipients
cannot possibly sympathize to the
proper extent-not knowing every par
ticular-and it only has the effect Of
making them thoroughly miserable, In
nine cases out of ten, over an imagi7
nary woe which belongs to somebody
else.
Consider 1t a duty to write cheerful
letters. and, If you haven't anything
cheerful to say, hunt till you find
something. You won't have a very
long search. If the sun doesn't shine
today it will tomorrow or the day
after.

on a steamship from Hamburg with
his wife and child, bound for Allen

the. Washington avenue wharf one day
recently he found that his pocket had
been picked Of $50, all the money he
possessed.
The man had no money to buy rail-

mysterious place, produced $2S.

A Shakeup
In the
Marine Corps

AND now a wave Of reform has
N struck Uncle Sans marine
"A corps, and some mighty
changes-mighty for those
concerned-are under way. Hereto
fore the regulations have provided
that the officers of the staff should be
located in Washington, but President
Taft has approved change to require
them to do duty wherever they may
be assigned, which will send many of
them out Of the country. Under the
old regulations the adjutant and in
spector took charge in the absence of
the commandant, but hereafter the
secretary Of the navy will designate an
officer to fill such temporary vacan-
cy. Practically all the existing lines
of succession are wiped out, and the
assignment of duty and the location
OF staff officers are left to the discre-
ton Of the commandant Of the corps
and the secretary of the navy.
The marine corps has been styled
the "slickest' of all Uncle Sans mill
tary forces. Nine people out Of ten in
the interior of the country will con-
fess ignorance as to what the marine
corps really is Some have faint i'm
preston that it consists Of sailors, and
the idea generally ends there. But the
marines are neither sailors nor soldiers,
but they do guard and police duty
aboard ships, are stationed In various
American possessions in the east and
other places and are generally first into

on shore from the ships.
The marine corps of the United
States dates back 1873 years, and it has
added much glory to the history Of
American arms at home and abroad.
1t was Nov. 10, ITS, that the first
force of marines was provided for. On
that date the Continental congress au-
thorized the raising of two battalions
Of marines. These men fought with
distinguished gallantry by the side OF

new machine. just patented in England
by l.. b. Goldman. His first endeavor
has been to arrive at formation
which would be more suitable for high
speed work than the present frail and
skeleton types. in which men and me-
chanism are fully exposed. The Gold
man machine has a central body of
torpedo shape, and within this the pi-
lot, passengers and stores are housed
But the vital principle of this air
ship is the new method of securing
stability. In every other aeroplane the
wings and body are rigidly held to-
rether. but in the Goldman machine
the planes or wings are mounted on
ball bearing collar which is fixed on
the central body. Thus. if not held IN
control the planes can oscillate freely
IN this collar without imparting their
motion TO the central body. The eff
feet of this is that in the case OF
gust of wind fitting the planes at one
side and depressing them at the other
the central body is not hseled over as
IN the case OF other machines where
wings and body are all joined together.

be more prone to the trouble than 9th
ers, but In the main attacks of the dis
ease are induced by the continuation Of
a hearty ration during a period Of idle
ness to horses which have been doing
heavy work, and acute cases are often
precipitated by driving too fast or put

have been standing in the stable. The
disease is much more likely to occur

this account that wild hay, timothy
