In anticipation OF the birth, her
mother had gone to Kennett ak

comfort to both. Mrs. Mikels says
that never has she seen such kind

MISS JOAN c. ORR--The death

Rejected Compulsory Happiness.


In 1899 the inundation Of the Yellow
river caused great suffering In China.
The inferior people not only "groaned
and murmured," but died by the hun
dreds. In order to raise funds for the
relief of the survivors the prefect OF
Hangchow levied tax on each cup
of tea sold in the tea houses of the
great city. The ancient capital as
sesscd in this arbitrary fashion re-
sented that tax after the manner Of the
Bostonians of 1878. In spite OF the
humane object of the assessment, the
citizens put boycott on tea, and the
proprietors of the tea houses cried
out in protest
The prefect issued second procla-
nation, in which he assured his people
that happiness was their sure reward
if they cheerfully contributed to this
excellent cause. This agreeable as
surance had no effect on the boy
cotters, and the tax had to be removed.
Perhaps this is the only instance on
record where cityful Of people were
banded TO resist compulsory "happi-
ness. s."-Youths Companion.

of Military Detail.
The parents OF n young soldier, who
was n private in n Prussian cavalry
regiment during the Franco-Prusslan
war, became very anxious about him.
Several battles had been fought and
they had received no news Of their
boy. After some hesitation the father
went to see General Won Moltke and
after a long wait was admitted to the
presence Of the great field marshal.
"What is your businessT asked the
general. "Use as few words as pos
sible."
The visitor explained that he wished
to know the fate Of his son, private
I'm a certain regiment. Moltke smiled,
but not unkindly, and drew forth a
square Of cardboard covered with dots.
lines and crosses of various colors.
"Thls line" he said, indicates the
line Of march Of your sons regiment.
These dots mark the distance Of each
forced march. Tomorrow morning at
7 o'clock the regiment must be at this
point here. Take note Of the situa-
ton" He said no more, and the in
terview ended.

in the distance, and precisely at the
hour the father saw his son.-London

One of the River and Harbor Sights Of

One Of the sights OF the barbor
familiar enough to those acquainted
with the water front, but Of never fail
ing interest to the waterside strolling
stranger, is the big railroad ferryboat
that carries the Boston Washington
through trains around Manhattan be-
tween Mott Haven and Jersey City,
and apparently this ride Is as interest
ing to the people on the boat as the
boat is to the people on the shore.
They just run the whole train on this
boat, and then in fair weather the pas
sengers get out to stretch their legs
and take In the view. As the big
boat comes along with the cars Of the
train aboard seen projecting out for
Ward and aft on deck from under the
hoods you see the passengers stand
ing forward for their eight or ten
miles water ride down the East river
and up the north, or vice versa,
through all the varied river traffic
close at hand. while shoreward they
have that marvellous view Of the lower
city. The boat Is one OF the city's
notable river sights, and the trip on
the boat itself and the view from its
de~N are still as wonderful as ever to
the unaccustomed traveler.-New York

MENTAL MACHINERY.
Shut of All the Power When You Quit
Work at Night.


1t is a great thing TO learn to shut
off the mental steam when you quit
work. says Orison SWEET Marden in
Success Magazine What would you
think Of a factory manager who would
leave all OF his power turned on after
the operators had left the factory, the
delicate machinery running every
where, pounding itself to pieces, grind
ing out its delicate bearings without
producing anything? Many of us do
not turn off our mental power after
we are through producing or creating
for the day. We carry our business
home. take IL TO bed with us, think.
plan, worry and waste precious ener-
gy in all sorts Of ways, in superfuous
thinking, foolish worrying that pro-
duces nothing, but grinds out the ex-
quisite mental machinery and units
it for the next days work. 1t Is
great art to learn TO shut off power
when through our days work, so that
we can oil our mental machinery, re-
fresh our minds and recuperate our
selves. so that we can go to the next
days work completely reinvigorated
Many men seem to think that they
are accomplishing something If they
keep their minds on business even
when not at work, but they really ac-
complish less than nothing because
they are wasting precious mental en-
ergy, the power for concentration, the
vipor tho focusing Of the mind which
is imperative for creating purposes.
