In travelling both at homo and
abroad, there is great comfort in your
own cup of tea On the steamer, par
ticularly, you miss your own brand,

on shipboard, and then this far-sight-

leaves, and she becomes the center Of
attraction, and has her little coterie
every afternoon. There are some who
prefer it for the morning meal, too, In
stead of the usual mediocre coffee with
condensed milk.
For this poignant need of the travel

hogany containing small silver tea
caddy and little tea ball, reproducing
in miniature tea kettle, has been put
upon the market. 1t is very simple in
arrangement, compact, and easy to
pack and makes really practical

There are many places on the con-
tinent where good tea is real luxury,
and many an unsophisticated Amer

of tea costs more than very elabo-

How to Make Life Long
and Happy

TN his work on Preventative
Medicine DR. BENJAMIN w
Richardson has this to say on
the rules for preventing the undue
waste of the bodily energies:
The rules of right living should
begin in youth. It should be the
habit of grown-u persons never
to subject children to mental shocks
and unnecessary griefs. When in
the surroundings of the child life
some grave calamity has occurred
it is best to make the event as light
as possible to the child, and Ger
tainly to avoid thrilling it with
sights and details which stir it to
the utmost, and, in the end. only
leave upon the mind and heart in
durable wounds and expressions.
Children should not be taken to flu
nerals, nor to sights that cause
sense Of fear and dread combined
with great grief.
TO avoid premature old age in
mature life, the following are i'm
portant rules to remember:
Dwelling on the inevitable past,
forming vain hypothesis as TO what
might have been If this or that had
or had not been. acquiring a craze
for. recounting what has occurred

these acts, do more harm to fin
ture health and effort than MANY
things connected with real calami-
ty. Occupation and new pursuits
are the best preventives for mental
shock and bereavement.
Hate keeps the heart always AZ
full tension It gives rise to on

1t confuses the whole man. It robs
the stomach of nervous power and.
digestion being injured, the failure
of life begins at once.
The facial expression of jealousy

men are not only unhappy. but
broken hearted and live short lives.

great current is set flowing IN the
Atlantic from the direction of
Africa toward America. When this
current encounters South America
a large part of il is sheered off
northWestward, and entering the
Caribbean sea and the Gulf of Mex
lea. is heaped up there, until It
escapes again, mainly through the
straits of Florida, thus giving birth
to the gulf stream. This stream,
flowing northea stward in the. North
Atlantic. as we have already said,
gradually spreads wider and loses
its force, but not until it has
crossed the. ocean, going eastward.
A large part of this water, turning
southwark again in the middle OF
the Atlantic, is drawn once more
into the westward current caused
by the trade winds, 80 that the
whole ocean is kept in motion like
an enormous eddy whose northern
edge moves eastward while the
southern edge moves westward.
But while the principal cause of
this wonderful circulation of the
ocean waters is that which we have
described yet minor influences also
affect it, the chief of these being
the winds that blow across the At
lantic in a direction which is main
" from west toward east. These
winds aid the circulation of the
water, and variation in their force
or direction may at times greatly
affect the speed and trend of the
currents
Looking at all this broadly, we
see that, in the great oceanic cur
rents. nature has solved vast
problem which has always appealed
to the Imagination of man. but
which he is too weak in resources

UTILIZATION OF THE EARTH'S

of the constant winds. arising from
the rotation. nature transforms
this force into motion of the sea
waters. And, more than that. by
means Of this motion, carrying
warns water from the equator to-
ward the poles, the climates of i'm
mense regions of the earth are
changed widely from what they
would be If the ocean were stag
nant. 1t has been calculated that
if all the oceanic currents, were ar
rested, the temperature of the
equator would rise 55 degrees, and
that of the poles would become So
degrees lower than at present The
British Isles and northern Europe
would become almost arctic in eli
mate. for the mean temperature in
the latitude of London would sink
to 10 degrees. II has also been cal
culated that the quantity of heat
daily conveyed northward bv the
