HONG TiME' IS DEFINED
Remark of Governor of North Caro- lima to Governor of South Caro-
 lima Brought Into Court.

The oft-quoted remark of the Gov ernor of North Carolina to the Gov crnor of South Carolina has at last construed. and found not to be so long as some other times. l. is prob able that it was the exceeding droughtiness Of the interval which made # seem long. In a prosecution for the Illegal sale of whisky in Ala bama. a witness testified that he had
 bought 8 pint of liquor of the ac- cused "a short time" before the grand jury returned the indictment against him. It was objected that this evil dence did not show that the prose cution had been begun within 12 months after the sale of the whisky, the time limited by statute for begin ming a prosecution. In discussing this objection, the Supreme court, in Wilson versus State. 56 Southern Reporter, 114, after holding that "a short tune" might be taken in the con- nectiOu in which it was used to re- fer to a period less than 12 months, said, by way of illustrations: The expression a long time would refer to 9 very different period of duration and have Q widely different meaning in measuring time when used by an archaeologist having reference t. the period Of existence of the Egyptian pyramids, than when used by Caro- lima Governors with reference to the time between drinks" The court may be right. but probably the Gov ernor of North Carolina measured
 time as recommended by the poet who said: We live in feelings. not in figures on the dial."-Colliers'.

EFFECTS OF DRINKING TEA
Consumer of High Quality Teas Runs Least Risk of Digestive Dis
 turbance.

Tho Lancet publishes a concluding article upon tea which sums up the results of an investigation into the sub ice. under the title of The Chem istry. Physiology and Esthetics of Q Cup of Tea
 The suggestion that an infusion of good tea consists chiefly of caffeine .annate is consumed. IL IS pointed out that when caffeine and tannin are in 9 state of combination, neither being In the free state. the harmful astringent qualities of the tannin disappear and the bitter taste Of free caffeine is not percepub'e.
 The teaS os high quality yield as a rule a simple infusion of caffeine tan. nate, not of caffeine or Of tannin. Such teas must be regarded as the most de sirable from a physiological point of view. IL is interesting 10 find that as a rule the expert taster picks out these teas as teas Of high quality.
 Coca teas, in short. according to this inquiry, are those which on a five min ute infusion yield only caffeine in the form of caffeine Jalnate 10 the in- fusion and bad or indifferent teas are those which yield on infusion a tea containing, in addition to caffeine tan- nate, either caffeine or tannin, but es- pecially tannin. in excess. A good tea may be made a bad tea. but bad tea can not be made a good tea ex- cept perhaps by very skilful blending. Excessive infusion will spoil a good tea, but even a short infusion of a bad tea may be as objectionable a. an excessive infusion of good tea.
 On physiological grounds. therefore, fhe ,clsu. -- t~1s runs less risk of digestive disturbance pro vided the tea is made properly.

RELIGION IS HIS BUSINESS

Tn this new movement it is inter esting 10 note the cavalier way in which business men" give the preach CTS the back seat IL is as # these committees said, Now you clergymen are the best Of fellows, but you are ignorant of business methods. It Is high time religion and business prin. ciples applied 10 it.

A factory with a good product only needs business skill to get its product on the market Now watch us do it"
 Now the preachers business Is re- hgion. Why not let him transact it? He has transacted it up to this time. For centuries he has been miserably paid.

Tuning s sils.

When bells in a chime produce dis cord they can be tuned. The tone oi bell may be raised or lowered by cutting off a little metal in The proper places. To lower the tone the hell tuner puts the bell in his lathe aIi reams it out from the point where the swell begins. nearly down to the rim. As the work proceeds he frequently tests the note with tuning fork, a2d the moment the right tone Is reached he stops roaming. To raise the tone, on the contrary. he slaves of the lower edge Of the bell. gradually less suing or Aattening the bevel. in order to shorten the bell, for of two bells of equal diameter and thickness the shorter will give the higher note. A noteworthy instance of bell-tun'ng vas at Lausanne. where twelve bells, in three neighboring steepies. pro iuced only seven distinct notes. and gave out a most curious discord.

NOT HERE T0 BE MISERABLE
We All Have Our Troubles but Should Learn to Keep Them in
 Background.

If there Is anything that is irritat- ing 1t is the way that some people talk of their troubles, as If they were a kind Of a treat-not cheerfully. but with a kind of gloomy joy; in word. they are resigned It is only mighty big humbugs that will say they are thankful for troubles We may even tually live to see that they were right ard best for us, but at the time it Is sheer hypocrisy to waggle our heads solemnly and say: Happiness Is a snare, anyhow; 1t is foolish for any one 10 expect happiness in this gri1 zly old world"
 People who talk that way don't de- serve happiness. We weren't put here to be miserable The idea that life is for suffering and not enjoyment Is fast being shelved If the Lord ap- proved of lamentations and tears. be would not have put so much in the world 10 make us hopeful and happy.
 There is nothing more common ;han trouble. We all have our troIbles. but it is the wise ones of earth that keep their burdens in the background. It is so common and cheap and selfish 10 be continually parading ones griefs and disappointments. Whatever our lot, we should all learn the wisdom of that helpfal little prayer: Help me Co win. if win l may; but S I may not win. make me a good loser. ."-Mary Eleanor O'Donpen in Chicag" Trib- uue

Sacrifice Is Spirit Of Christmas.

A curious thing comes to my mind
concerning which have word to say,
and that Is apropos Of honesty. No one
has a right to give away anything ex-
cept what may be in excess Of the Just
demands upon the income. The butch
er. the baker. the dry goods man, needs
his money as surely as does the enthu-
siastic woman eager to make a pretty
gift or the lover to bestow upon his
sweetheart what he knows Is her
hearts desire. Successful Christmas
giving should mean self sacrifice. and
1t is often Il greater sacrifice to deny
oneself the privilege Of expenditure
than to do just what one has in mind.
] believe that from the nursery days
this theory should be inculcated. and.
as the coming TO this world Of our
blessed Lord was one great act Of sac
rtflce, so In planning for our Christmas
gifts each child in the family should
be encouraged to something of self sac
rifice In the gathering together of the
money for his gifts. l like to picture
the old fashioned Virginia home, where
round the library table through the
fall months the children Of the house
hold and the kinsfolk and acquaint-
ances who might be within the doors
busted themselves in the preparation Of
dainty nothings which should carry on
Christmas morn the sweet words Of
loving remembrance. Julia Holmes
