SCHEME TO STOP REPEATING
Misslou Head Stamped on tho Beg gars' Wrists "I Ate an

For the first time in ten years the shabby man wore gloves, which he had wheedled out of an opulent aims giver.
 "Had to have 'em," he said. ''to hide my wrists. Just see here."
 The gloves were peeled of and the Inscription, "I ate an hour ago." was shown on the back of each wrist.
 "Been there two weeks," said the man, "and nothing but the mercy of heaven has kept me from starving to death. Clapped on with 6 rubber

MUST HAVE SELF-C0NFIDENCE
Every Youth Should Be Brought Up to Think We'll of Himself If He
 Would Succeed.

Many children go from school and college knowing great deal, but without bit of improvement in their self-confdence, their initiative. They are just as timid, shy and self depreciatory as before entering. Now, what advantage is it to send youth out into the world with head full of knowledge, but without the confi- dence or assurance to use it, or the ability to grapple with life's prob lens with that vigor and efficiency which alone can bring success?
 It is of the utmost importance that every youth should be brought up to think we'll of himself, have great confidence in his ability. He should be reared in the conviction that he was intended to fill place in the world which no one else in the world could fill, that he should ex- pect it, and train himself for it. It is a sin to shake or destroy a child's self-confdence, to reflect upon his ability or to suggest that he will never amount to much. These dis couraging words, like initials cut in the sapling, grow wider and wider with the years, until they become great ugly scars in the adult.-Suc- cess Magazine.

THE PARENTS JOKE.

Some parents seem unable to re- sist the temptation to make a joke with the Christian names of their children, says the London Chronicle. The Somerset house registers testify to the existence of a MT. Mineral Waters, a Frosty Winter and an AL fred Days Weeks. There is some- thing to be said in favor of naming children in the order of their arri- val-Primus, Secundus, etc.-but 1t Is unfortunate for a well-known Ca- nadian named Cumber that 1t should have fallen to his lot to be a Quintus, for his name is always appearing in the papers az Mir. 0.

HAS ANCIENT MUSkET.

Perhaps the oldest gun in the United States is that owned by Alex. King of Richmond, Va. Nine tv-seven years ago this month Kings grandfather purchased a flintlock musket, which at that time was the very latest model in small firearms. Today the piece is in working order and can be fired as accurately as it could when purchased. The gun was made in lS14, the same year it was purchased by the elder king.

WHERE DO THE PENNIES GO?
Many MIllIons Of Them Arc Coined Every Year-Thousands Taken
 Prom Circulation.

Thousands of one-cent pieces are lost each year. More than hundred and fifty million pennies are coined annually by the Philadslphs mint and only small percentage of them are ever accounted for. They are swept up with the rubbish of the streets.
 When the new Lincoln pennies were first placed in circulation thou sands were used as souvenirs, never again to be placed in general circula- ton. Hundreds were gold-platsd and silvered, to be used as cuff links and stickpins. Then, at nearly all country fairs there arc machines that mutilate pennies-they Astten the one-cent piece, and stamp Q view of the fair grounds on 1t. This does away with thousands of the pieces.
 Not long ago over 100, ,oo0 pennies were shipped to Cubs and placed in circulation among the poor class of nattses. Pennies are placed in cir- culahon almost as fast ss they are coined, but very few of them are ever heard of again. The American cop per cent runs . close second to the pin, of which hundreds of millions Ars lost every year.

WISE MEN OF WALL STREET
They Are Called "Panio Blrds" and Appear Duly When . Tempest
 To Impending.

There is an interesting class of men who are never seen on "the street" when everything is bright and buoyant, but who flock there in droves when tempest breeds, and stocks fall way down to almost nothing. They descend upon "the street" to take advantage of such conditions, and buy up stocks when at their lowest, holding them until all is peace again, and then selling at a handsome profit. They are usually veterans of the market who "know the ropes," and buy when everyone else Is selling, and sell when prices are high and everyone is buying. These "wise men" of Wall street are called "panic-birds," and they al- ways soar high above "the street" in troublous times. One "panic-bird" has flown into the whirlpool of some twenty panics and has scared with 6 fortune of half a million. On the other hand, ono young man, with a few thousands and some ordinary horse-sense, took a "flier" in Wall street for the first time at the height -or depth-oi the 1907 panic, and came out practically millionaire Strand.

How LaFollette's Different.

In reply to the Standpat New York
Suns attack on LaFollette. Life
SAYS: He seems to have paid for
the office by working about sixteen
hours a day, year in and year out,
for the Outs against the ms. The
difference between his ''virtuous pre-
lenses and long distance elOquence"
and those of the regular and auth
orized machine politicians with whom
he has contended, has been that
he has been incorrigibly addicted to
making some of his pretenses good.
They tell us he has changed and
bettered many laws in Wisconsin; In
fought the Payne bill, and he speaks
in his autobiography of fighting
many other bad bills. If we follow
the autobiography we shall doubtless
get a fairly complete record of his
good political deeds. He is an ag-
gressive grasping person who likes
power, but when he gets it he does
something with it, and-here's the
point-it is usually something that
needed to be done. He likes politics,
not as Murphy likes politics, because
it's a good thing and a condition
precedent to personal enrichment
but, apparently, because government
interests him. and because he loves
to poke laws and other obstacles be-
tween the self-selected heirs of the
earth and the inheritance they covet.
