A Few Applications of a Simple

How often one hears the expression,
"She is gray and beginning to look old.
1t is true that gray hair usually denotes
age and is always associated with age
You never hear one referred to as having
gray hair and looking young.
The hair is generally the index of age.
If your hair is gray, you can't blame
your friends for referring to you as look
ing old. You can't retain youthful APP
pearance if you allow your hair to grow
gray. Many persons of middle age jeop-

One of the best Fourth of July
speeches was that of Gov. Wilson. One
of his summarizing statements was
this: 'sWe have accordingly acted
upon constructive, not destructive,
programs; by process of common coun-
Gil and not by process of impatient re-
volt. We have been masters of our
own life and of our own fortunes be-
cause we have been masters of our

If all the people cherish
We're easily obtained
If all the pests would perish,
And not an i'll remained;
If those we love would love us
And those we hate would die;
If clouds ne'er spread above us
To darken the blue sky;
If all the flies made honey
And gold filled every brick,
If all the leaves were money
That any one might pick;
If swindlers never stung us,
And babies never cried,
| wonder who among US
Would be quite satisfied?
If life were only pleasure,
With neither toll nor care,
If every hidden treasure
Were suddenly laid bare.
If every girl could marry
A marquis or an earl
And every boy could carry
Away some others girl
Life still would be unpleasant,
And sadly day by day,
We'd sigh for what at present
We lightly throw away.
Joy soon would be a canker,
And none would think it strang
If each and all should banker
For trouble for a change.

And cvan't get our breath at all
Through sleepless nights and feyeris

We're painting for the fall
When autumn comes so dreary,
We converse of winttr bright,
With its opera and its bathrooms
And its incandescent light
But in the depths of winter,
How the cold does make us sting!
And we SILVER as we chatter
OF the blessings of the spring.
Then spring arrives with violets,
Sweet birds, and grip, and rhyme,
And we sniffie through our noses
For the happy summer time!

MERELY 0BEYING ORDERS
Policemen Of Mexico City Take Every
instruction In Literal
Sense.

Mexico City Is possibly the best po-
Iced metropolis In the world, but its
officers, while vigilant, take every in
struction given them in a literal sense.
They will arrest anybody or anything
that violates city ordinance.
A short time ago, says New York
er. who recently spent some time in
that city, there was a collision be
tween two automobiles, one of the
machines being so badly damaged
that 1t had to be left at the place
where the accident occurred. The
persons occupying the machine were
promptly bundled into the auto which
was able to proceed and the entire
party went to the police station.
But that did not excuse the broken
car. 1t was formally arrested on the
spot and an officer detailed to see that
1t did not get up and limp back to its
garage. BY some chance the broken
automobile was forgotten for two days
at the end of which time the police
captain discovered that he was shy
one gendarme. Investigation discov'
cred the gendarme asleep in the ma
chine, where he had camped out ever
since charged with its care. And 1t
is very cold up on this Mexican pla
teau at night, as Mexico City is more
than mile above sea level.

DOCTORS FEE IN JAPAN
Physician Receives a Present OF as
Much as Patient Can
Afford.

A Japanese doctor never dreams of
asking poor patient for fee. There
is a proverb among the medical frater-
nifty in Japan: When the twin enc
mics poverty and disease invade q
home, then he who takes aught from
that home, even If 1t be given him, is a
robber."
Often" remarked recent lecturer
on Life in Japan" "a doctor will not
only give his time and medicine free
to the sufferer, but he will also give
him money to tide over his dire neces-
stiles. Every physician is his own dis
penser, and there are very few apothe
carries shops in the empire.
When even q rich man calls In a
doctor he does not expect that he will
receive bill for medical services; In
fact no such thing as doctors bill is
known in Japan, although nearly all
modern practices are in vogue there
The strict honesty of the people does
not make it necessary for the doctor
to ask fee. When he has finished his
visits to the patient a present is made
to him, just as much as the patient
can afford. The doctor smiles, bows
thanks his patient, and the transaction
is settled.

TUIJL vi Inc rLUrLL.
Would License the Drinker.

There are two classes of people
who purchase and drink intoxicants
at saloon; namely, those who be-
become drunk and disorderly and
those who do not. In the opinion of
the writer the statutes ought to re-
cognise this classification. The first
mentioned class, though not numer-
ers as compared to the whole body
of drinkers are always a nuisance
frequently a menace, and sometimes
a very great danger to the peace
and good order of society and ought
to be suppressed.
They should make it mandatory on
the circuit court or other competant
local authority to issue drinker s
and purchaser license to applicants
who have reached the age of twenty
one years and who have not been
drunk and disorderly within one
year proceeding the date of appllca-
ton. A license fee of one dollar
should be charged for the printed APP
plication blank, which should be en-
dorsed with the signature and seal OF
the court should not refund the
entitled to a license. A period OF
one month should elapse after the
date of the application before the
issuance Of the license, and IN the
meantime the application should be
published in the local newspapers.
A metallic license check, to be ear
ried in the pocket, should be issued
along with the license, which should
run for one year but which should be
Immediately revoked if the party
holding same should become drunk or
disorderly.
A register, similar to hotel re-
gister, except that the names should
be furnished to each saloon at their
own expense, and should contain the
personal signatures of those who
hold license, together with the
date of such license The registers
should be open TO the inspection of
the public. If a saloon keeper or his
bartender knowingly and wilfulIv
sells to a person who does not pos
sesses a license to purchase drink,
then his own license should be i'm
mediately revoked.

Quartz Mills in Alaska.

Alaska has produced more than zoe
million dollars In gold since 1888. So
far only placer gold has been mined
except at Treadwell; but new quartz
mining has assumed first Importance
and quartz mills are going into Alas
ka in great numbers. For more than
decade the trail to the interior was
lined with weary men carrying their
packs and stumbling along over rocky
lodges now found to contain more
gold than the distant placers. AS the
great quartz mines in the Sierra Ne
vadas succeeded the placer camps of
California, SO the quartz mines of Val
DEE are succeeding the famous placers
Of the interior. There is no healthier,
happier nor more promising prospect
for a young man of energy than the
quartz lodges of Alaska.

Old Negro Receives One Dollar for

Wealthy Man.

"The shrewd waiter will accept q
tip, no matter how small 1t is, and
pretend that he Is satisfied" said a
hotel manager yesterday. When |
hear of persons giving extraordinarily
small tips it reminds me of an old ne
gro waiter we used to have at Palm

was Winfield Scott.
"a wealthy but eccentric New York

the same hours each day. At the end
of the first he solemnly handed the
he bowed and showed his teeth and
said: Thank yuh, subj The next
meal the same thing happened, and
so on to the end of three months,
when the visitor was about to leave.
Scott waited on him with the great
est punctiliousness at every meal and
never limited that the tip he got was
not perfectly satisfactory.
after he had finished his last meal
the visitor said to the waiter: Scott
how long have been here?
yes 80 days, suh,' was the answer
az have given you something after
every meal, haven't ~

"'How much does 1t amount tor
Scott told him. Have you got all
those penniesY the visitor asked.
Scott said he had, and the visitor
told him to bring them. Scott re-
turned with a bag of pennies and
handed them over.
"T'll take Them said the man
Now this is yours and he handed
over to the waiter 500"
