II Will Prove Valuable Asset In Bust
ness Affairs.
Memory is an excellent quality, and
every business demands a special mem
DRY adapted to its particular needs
Take the doctor, for example He
has to know a human body better than
its very owner and must carry in his
mind perhaps for years little points
that may be needed for future refer
ence. Medical memory is quite as inn
portant as medical knowledge.
Every lawyer is obliged to know, as
q child knows its alphabet, the princi-
Piles Of law, and the judge must carry
his trained memory even further.
The editor or subeditor engaged upon
a paper must remember the contents
of his file for many months back. The
stockbroker must depend upon his
memory for much of the information
upon which he operates.
Naturally clergymen must allow their
memories to run upon religious mat
tiers, and there are many divines who
can literally repeat whole chapters
from the Scriptures.
Each profession. each business, has
use for man whose memory can be
trained for the one purpose Of applying
it to the particular vocation in which
he is engaged.-Pearson's Weekly.

The custom of carrying flags or stand
ards in battle dates back at least to
1890 r. c. We find in Numbers ii, ?.
that every man Of the children Of
Israel shall pitch by his own standard
with the ensign of his fathers house.
Each standard of the twelve tribes thus
distinguished was supposed TO have
been Of color to correspond with the
stone in Aaron's breastplate which
bore the name of that tribe. Under the
generic rame banner are included many
species, such as standard. ensign, pen
non, flag. etc These have been used
from earliest times and in all countries
to direct movements Of troops.
The earliest Roman standard was
bundle of straw fixed to the top Of
spear. This was succeeded by fig
ures Of animals, such as the horse and
the boar, which soon gave place to the
eagle, the chief Roman ensign. after
ward assumed 10y the German and
French emperors. BY every warlike
people the banner has been regarded
as an emblem Of national honor, in de
Tense of which each soldier was at all
times ready to die, while banners and
flags taken from the enemy have al
ways been special trophies of victory
to which places of honor in public
buildings have been assigned.

The reins may guide the horse. the
bit may inspire him by its careful ma

forward to greater ambition, but the
human voice is far more potent than
all these agencies. It's assuring tones
will more quickly dispel his fright, It's
sharp. clear. electric commands will
more thoroughly arouse his ambition
and its gentle. kindly praises will more
completely encourage the intelligent

SUGGESTIONS
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience of Motherhood is try
Ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or IN
derstands how to properly care for her
self. OF course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at
such times, but many approach the
experience with an organism untitled
for the trial of strength, and when it
is over her system has received shock
from which it is hard to recover Fol-
lowing right upon this comes the ner-
vous strain of caring for the child, and
a distinct change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is that,
with all the evidence Of shattered nerves
and broken health resulting from an IN
prepared condition, and with ample time
in which to prepare, women will persist
in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham sVegetable Com
pound, most valuable tonic and invig-
orator of the female organism.

BURN BUILDING TO KILL GERM
only Way to Get Rid Of Them, and
Occasion Was Made Good
Object Lesson.

A ramshackle building in Winston
Salem was recently burned at the re-
quest of the local Anti-Tuberculosis
league, because 1t was said to be alive
with tuberculosis germs and could not
be properly fumigated.
For days before the building was
burned huge placards announcing the
hour of destruction and giving rea-
sons for the burning were hung about
in prominent places. Among other
things the placards said: within the
past Is months two men who sold
fruit, ETC., here have died of tuber-
culosis but unconsciously left millions
OF tuberculosis germs by careless
splitting. The building is so open that
1t cannot be effectively fumigated.
The only practical means of disinfect-
ing is by fire."
At the appointed hour, while mil
lions of tuberculosis germs were be-
ing burned, 5000 pamphlets telling
how to prevent consumption, were dis
tributed to the crowd looking on.
