Mayor Sloane has been a terror

and is attracting attention through
out the southern part of the state.

This Is Slumber Land.

Here is story about the soothing
quality of Flatbush air. says the
Brooklyn Eagle. Newcomers to Flat
bush notice first of all that they don't
seem able to get sleep enough. At
first they have an idea that perhaps
it's the malaria, but it is only the
heavy sea air which induces slumber.
A new resident in Flatbush asked
some friends Of his in the district If
the experience was common one.
ooh, yes" was the reply, that is
the case with everybody who moves
here. A certain woman who lives not
far from Eighteenth avenue started to
make three beds one morning at nine
o'clock. At seven o'clock that night
she had not yet made the third. The
beds looked so inviting and was SO
tired she explained, that whenever
I came to one lay down and slept on
it."

TRIUMPH OF WATER FINDING
English Expert Locates Ample Supply,
Guaging Depth Below Surface
Within Two Feet.

A very remarkable achievement in
"water-fnding" has been carried
through at Sicily Oak, Birmingham. 1t
was necessary to discover supply of
water on the land belonging to the Pa
tent Enamel works, and Mr.. Chester
man was called from Hereford for the
purpose. He went over the land with
his piece of aluminium wire for about
half an hour. Then he suddenly
stopped and declared that at the place
where he stood water would be found
at a depth of $50 feet. A contract was
signed by which he engaged to sink an
eight-inch artesian tube which should
produce not less than $4,000 gallons
of water day, on the condition mo
water, no pay" He employed hydrau-
lie boring machinery, and in fourteen
days struck water at depth Of 24S
feet, and test pumping for 20 hours
proved a yield of 10000 gallons per
day. That the expert should have
gagged the depth within two feet is
considered one of the greatest triumphs
in water-finding Of modern times.

ANTIDOTE FOR EACH RECIPE
What the Author Of Cook Book
Found on the Margins Left
for Notes.

The woman was the author of q
cook book that has been published at
her request with wide margins and
occasional blank pages for notes and
additional recipes. Often she had ex-
pressed wish to see an old copy Of
the book and find out to what use the
blank spaces had been put. One day
in secondhand book store her hus-
band unearthed an old volume. No
ticing that 1t had been annotated free
ly, he bought it. After day or two
he said:
"How about the notes in that cook
book? Were they Interestingly"
NO." she said CURLY; "they didn't
amount to anything"
When he got chance he looked
through the book himself. Every note
the book contained was a remedy for
dyspepsia and stomach trouble.

Advocates Silence.

Silence is the element in which
great things fashion themselves to-
gether, that at length they may
emerge full formed and majestic, into
the daylight of Life, which they are
henceforth to rule. All the
considerable men l have known fore
bore to babble of what they were
creating and projecting. Nay, in thy
own perplexities, do thou myself but
hold thy tongue for one day; on tbs
morrow how much clearer are thy
purposes and duties; what wreck and
rubbish have these mute workmen
within thee swept away when intru'
sive noises were shut out.-Maurice

OFFICE HOLDING IN CHINA.

In some respects the Chinese ap-
pear to have distinct advantages
over us, says the Chicago Record
Herald. For instance, when a
Chinese public oficeholder has
failed to give satisfaction in his
officeholding-when he haa shown
that he is the wrong man in the
right place-he is invited to CONT
suicide, SO that better servant of
the people may succeed him. The
request is not a mere formality,
When it is made in the proper way
and backed by a proper expression
ofpublic opinion it has all the force
Of a decision of the supreme court.
The man who is condemned has
no escape save flight, and if he
runs away his family is forever dis
graced and degraded.
If we could import this Chinese
custom there would undoubtedly
be a great improvement in the.gen-
business of officeholding. 1t would
make undertaking almost unneces-
sary and senatorial Investigations
would become obsolete. More
over, it would give the office real
chance to seek the man. The task
of the voter would be silnplihed,
because there would cease to be a
multiplicity of candidates for each
Office. If the Chinese system
could be adopted without the ac-
compartment of the pigtail it
might be worth trying.

A YOUNG MANS COUNTRY.

The more one becomes acquaint-
ed with the lomcsteaders, business
and professional men of this west
ern country, the more he notices
that most of them are comparative
ly young men. And yet this is
not to be wondered at for since
Colonial days the young man has
ever turned his face westward where
his restless energy and adventurous
nature might find vent in doing the
things incident to the life of the
pioneer. To an American the land
of the setting sun has ever been a
land os pomise. A hundred years
ago young man would tie onto the
back of a pack animal, few blan-
kets and a gun, bid the old folks a
fond adieu, and strike into the for
est. A few days march and the
ring of a woodsman's ak, a clear
ing with cabin in the midstt here
of, marked another advance in the
task of subdueing a continent. A
few years later it became the GUS
tom for title colony to move on
together comprising a caravan of
teams. Now we simply ride in on
the train and push out a little way
from the track. Yet there are
certain hardships even in preaent-
day pioneering and that is why the
young man is here. In fact this is.
as it should be, young mans
country.

Good Use for Old Wire Rope.

Old wire rope is used in certain
French mines for reinforcing old tim
bers, especially the cap pieces Of sets.
The old rope is stretched longitudinal.
ly around the timber, the ends being
held fast between the roof and the
top of the cap piece SO they cannot
slip. When timber starts to bend
under the weight of the roof part OF
the tension is taken up by the wire
cable, enabling a miner to put in ad
ditional supports before fall occurs
The ends of the cap pieces are tapered
and grooved deep enough to receive
the rope and prevent any part of II
projecting beyond the bearing ends
of the timber pieces.

All Need the Earth.

There is an Antaeus in every one
of us and in the whole of US which
needs the EARTH" says Henry DEM
Arrest Lloyd in his posthumous book.
"a grandmother was spreading before
the vision of beloved child picture
of the beauties of heaven with its
gates of pearl and its pavements Of
gold. What said the scornful boy,
unpactivated, no mud?' There spoke
the real philosopher. We are earth
animals, and we need contact with
all the aspects of nature, human ma
ture, and other nature. They who
feed wholly on white bread and the
tenderloin and the sweetness and
light of the best people, art for the
arts sake, cannot get phosphates
enough and soon develop the ricketts,
The man | heard say he liked to eat
with the common people once in 9
while, the woman you heard say that
she thought 1t was her duty to as
sociate with the middle class, confess
the approach of extinction. They are
losing touch with the source of all per
sonal and social power"

rhe Leaaus Of PolItensss.

The League of Politeness has been
formed in Berlin. 1t aims at inculcat-
ing better manners among the people
of Berlin. It was founded upon the
initiative OF Fraulein Cecelie Meyer,
who was inspired by an existing or
ganization in Rome. In Difference to
the parent organization the Berlin
league has chosen the Italian motto,
PRO gentilezza." This will be en-
blazoned upon an attractive little
medal worn where Germans are &C
customed to wear the insignia of or
ders. The idea is that a GLANCE at
the "talisman" will annihilate any In
clination to indulge in bad temper or
discourteous language. ANY polite
person" is eligible for membership.

Our Voices.

I think our conversational soprano,
as sometimes overheard in the cars,
arising from a group of young persons
who have taken the train at one of
our great industrial centers, for in
stance, young persons of the female
sex, we will say, who have hustled in
full dressed, engaged in loud, strident
speech, and who, after free discussion,
have fixed on two. or more double
seats, which having secured, they pro-
coed to eat apples and hand round
daguerreotypes-I say, I think the
conversational soprano, heard under
these circumstances, would not be
among the allurements the old enemy
would put in requisition were he get
ting up new temptation of St. An.
thony.
There are sweet voices among us
we all know, and voices not musical
1t may be, to those who hear them
for the first time, yet sweeter to us
than any we shall hear until we lister
to some warbling angel in the over
ture to that eternity of blissful har
monies we hope to enjoy. But why
should l tell lies? If my friends love
me, it Is because / try to tell the
truth. I never heard but two voicei
in my life that frightened me by thei
weetness.-Holmes.

Had Money In Jumps.

Charles H. Rosenberg of Bavaria
had Jumps on his shoulders, elbows,
and hips when he arrived here from
Hamburg on the Kaiserin Auguste Vic
toria. In fact, there was a series of
smaller Jumps along his spine, much
like mountain range, as 1t is present
ed on a bas-relief map.
The Jumps were about the size of
good Oregon apples. and as Rosen-
berg passed before the immigration
doctor for observation, the doctor said
softly to himself, See that lump"
Then he asked Mr.. Rosenberg to step
aside.
you seem like q healthy man,
said the doctor, but cannot pass you
until I know the origin of those Jumps
on your body" "Ah, 1t is not sick
ness" laughed the man from Bavaria
Those dwellings Is money"
Taking off his coat he broke open 8
sample lump and showed that 1t con

What About Brain Food?
This Question Came Up in the Recent
Trial for Libel.

A weekly" printed some criticisms of the
claims made for foods. 1t evidently did
not fancy our reply printed in various news
papers, and brought suit for libel. At the trial
some interesting facts came out.
Some Of the chemical and medical experts
differed widely.
The following facts, however, were quite
clearly established:
Analysis of brain by an unquestionable au-
thority, Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,
Phesphorie Acid and Potash combined (Phos-
phate of Potash. 291 per cent Of the total,
h.33 of all Mineral Salts
This is over one-half.
Beaunis another authority, shows 3Phos.
phoric Acid combined" and Potash 1914 per
cent from a total of 10107
Considerable more than onehalf of Phos-
plate of Potash
Analysis of Grape-Nuts shewsi Potassium
and Phosphorus, (Which join and make Phos
phate of Petash), is considerable more than
one-haIf of all the mineral salts in the food.
Dr. Geo, w. Carey, authority on the con-
stituent elements OF the body, saysi 1.-THE
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic cellsalt, Potassium Phosphate
phosphate of Potash. This salt unites with
albumen and By the addition of oxygen creates
nerve fluid or the gray matter OF the brain.
OF course, there Is trace OF other salts and
other organic matter in nerve fluid, but Potas-
