In vallery -Radots Life Of Pasteur'
we read the story of his misery. 1t is
nothing to say that the war nearly
broke his heart But it broke neither
his faith nor the straight line Of his
work. Only a sort Of rage possessed
him to redeem aud console France by
working for her "Henceforth,' he
said. every one Of my books shall
have written on It these words. Re

was his revenge. to set the name Of

peraments. just so it is with color.
We caunot always give a reason for
our preferences. but we are sure they
exist, and most people are sensitive
to color to a greater or less degree.
Ones favorite color brings repose and
enjoyment, is conducive to health and
exercises an actual influence on our
life and moods. But even in crafty
ing this preference wisdom must be
shown, for there are many colors OF
which a little is enjoyable when a
mass would be uneudurable. Constant
ly surrounded by a glow Of vivid scar
let would be like close companionship
with a brass band, but touch or
scarlet amid dull surroundings is
pleasing sensation.
AS far as effect is concerned, the
color Of a room makes its atmosphere.
If NAV be cheerful or sad. cOzy or dis
turbiug, according to its quality ana
force Without color a room is much
like a bare canvas. which might. but
does not, give vivid picture Of some
phase Of life The colOrless room has
nothing to tell of the character Of its
occupants.
Color in a house includes much that
is classed as furniture. 1t applies TO
CARPETS. draperies and ornaments. but
It is first and pre-eminently applied to
wall treatment. In selecting color for
a single room or for an entire house
certain points must be borne in mind.
The first is that one person does not
make a home. 1t takes the combined
influence and personality Of every per-
son living under the roof to give its
true character. Every book. every pic
ture. every carefully selected piece OF
furniture. brought into the house
makes it a part of a beautiful whole.
and no house can be absolutely perfect
without all these evidences Of family
life.
Good rules to follow in selecting col
ors for any room are to make the
choice on this basis:
With reference to the light in the
room.
With reference to other colors in ad-
joining rooms.
With reference to the general char
acter Of the furnishing.
Interiors with a southern exposure
should be treated with cool. light col
ors, such as blues and greens IN

A FAMOUS RACE.
The Greatest Steamboat Contest on the
Mississipp River.

The greatest race ever run on the
Mississippi was between the Natchez'
a boat built in Cincinnati and COM
manded by Captain I. p. Leathers,
and New Albany boat, the Robert +.
Lee. under Captain John w. Cannon.
There was spirited rivalry between the
two vessels. aud when the Natchez
made the fastest time on record he

it. He engaged the steamer Frank
Pargoud and several fuel boats and
arranged for them to meet him at va
rious points up the river with wood
and coal Then he had his boat cleared

the wind or make the vessel heavier.
on Thursday, June 20 1870, at 44j
D. m.. the Robert f. Lee steamed out
Of New Orleans. The Natchez follow
ed five minutes later. The race had
been advertised in advance and was
now awaited with gathering interest
at all the river towns. Large crowds
were assembled at Natchez, Nicksburg,
Helena and other large places.
Between Cairo and st. Louis the
Natchez afterward claimed To have lost
seven hours and one minute on account
OF fog and broken machinery The
Robert f. Lee, however. was not de-
layed and arrived in ST. Louis thirty
three minutes ahead Of the previous
record established by her competitor.
Fifty thousand people from the house

steamers welcomed the winner as she

Il Fills Mexican Poems With Some
thing Like Delirium Tremens.


thing Like Delrium Tremens.
Water bugs and worms are among
the tidbits in which the Mexican peon
delights. He catches his bugs as they
skim along the top Of fresh water
ponds. drying them and then eating
them with as much zest as an Ameri-
can boy eats peanuts. As near as the
neon can explain it, their flavor Is
something on the order Of the chest
nut, but as no white man has ever
tried eating water bugs. or If he has
doesn't dare confess it, the exact taste
of these Mexican morsels can't be de
scribed very accurately.
The poems dote, too, on the nice,
fat pulque worm. This insect Is about
two inches long and half an inch thick.
They fry the dainty in grease and
pack It in brown paper packages OF
a dozen worms, which fetch 2 cents
paper. An industrious pulque worm
collector makes a good living.
The worm inhablts the maguey or
puldue plant, from which is distilled
the aqua miel, or honey water, OF
Mexico. After twenty-four hours fer
mentation It is very intoxicating. Aft
er the Mexican has primed himself
with several drinks Of aqua miel and
has smoked half a dozen cigarettes
made of the dried leaf Of the merri-
huana weed and brown paper he is

This combination Of stimulant and
narcotic has the effect Of deluding the
victim into thinking that his enemy
and every peon has a choice collection
Of enemies-is a pygmy in stature. At
the same time 1t gives him an idea
that he Is tremendously strong and
wonderfully brave. So he sallies forth
to make mincemeat Of his enemy or
enemies and. as a rule, lands in the
local calabOOse.
One Of the peculiar effects Of mer-
rihuana smoking Is to distort the size
Of all animals. making them OF enor-
nous size and horrible shape. The
smoker is filled with a horrible fear
something like the horrors brought on
bv delirium tremens. A kitten OF a

as some terrible creature. A common
sight in Mexico is to see a swarthy
"greaser." armed to the teeth. fee In
terror from a small dog. while be

A TURBULENT VOLCANO.
Tho Boiling Hot Pools Of TaaI, In the
Philippines.

Philippines.
The central or main crater Of Taal is
nearly round. It's diameter on an air line
north aud south is G.233 feet and the
east-west diameter 1876 feet. The
edge Of this crater is somewhat irreg-
ular. but is nowhere broken through,
its highest point standing at only l,OJO
feet above sea level and its lowest at
42G feet
Within the rim are two hot pools,
known respectively as the yellow and
the green lake. and little active cone
above fifty feet in height from which
escape steam and sulphurous gas in
varying quantities.
In the smaller lake every few min
utes the water in the center is blown
uD like an immense bubble which, riS-
ing above the surface. finally bursts. re
veallng a black orifice and causing the
boiling and very turbulent water to as
sume all imaginable colors. The aque-
Gus vapor escaping is sufficient to form
a broad smokelike column which IS
visible especially during the night and
in the early morning.
At some distance and before reach
ing the edge Of the crater, where a
view Of the bottom can be obtained
the rnmbling sound produced by the
escaping vapor. under the influence Of
the mysterious subterranean forces
can be heard like that Of an immense
boiling kettle.
The greatest eruption Of Taal took
place in 1854 The eruption began on
May 10 and did not end till Dec. l.
During this dreadful time the intensity
and aspect Of the eruption were con
tinually changing, and the four princi-
nal towns Of the laguna Of Bombon dis
appeared-viz. Sala. Lipa, Tanauan
and Taal with the numerous villages
around them Manila Times.

WWAvE you ever considered how
much environment has to do
with the goOC or bad health OF
the individual or family? Ii
you have thought about it at all you
know that cheerful. pleasant and suit
able surroundings in the home lend
their aid in maintaining good health.
These also assist in character building.
The influence Of such things may be
unconscious TO persons who have Civ
en- little or no thought to the subject,
but without doubt the influence exists
to some degree.
The choice Of color. the style and ar
rangement of furniture. even the pic
lures which adoTn the walls. all have
their part in developing the men and
women who lnhabit the home. Com
paratively few persons have given
much thought to the study OF color,
and as a result its selection for house
or furnishings has been more the re-
suit of chance OF mischance than Of
good Judgment. Color gives atmos-
phere to our homes. and rightly chosen

home in the fullest sense Of the word.
For one who has never studied color
the best advice is to choose quiet tones
and copy nature as far as possible. II
one has a favorite color it should sur
round one in either house furnishing
or personal adornment whenever suit
able. Why not choose colors accord

We select our friends from sympa-

always philosophize about 1t or stop
to analyze why we find greater pleas

THE WEREWoLVES.
Fantastic story Of Sixteenth Century
Tragedy.


John Of Nuremberg relates how
man. lost at night in a strange coun-
try. directed his steps toward a fire
that he saw before him. On reaching
it he found a wolf sitting enjoying its
warmth and was informed by him
that he was really as human as him
self but that he was compelled for a
certain number of years, like all his
countrymen. to assume the shape of a
wolf
a strange country, indeed, where
wolves when the evenings grow chill
ly light fire and in the comfort of its
ruddy glow are found ready to en-
tertain the passing traveller with their
conversation.
CLAUS Magnus in the early part OF
the sixteenth century tells US story
Of a nobleman and his retinue who lost
their way in journeying through a
wild forest and presently found them
selves hopelessly foOdless and shelter
less. In the urgency of their need one
Of the servants disclosed to him in
confidence that he had the power Of
turning himself at will into a wolf
and doubted not but that, II his mas

while. he would be able to find the
party some provision. Permission be-
Ing given, the man disappeared into
he forest under semblance of wolf
and very quickly returned with lamb
in his mouth and then. having fulfilled
his mission, resumed his human form.
In Auvergne in 1888 nObleman in
returning from the chase was stop
ped by stranger. who told him that
he had been furiously attacked by a
savage wolf. but had been fortunate
enough to save himself by slashing OF
