The simplest method of arranging

Last Civil War Veteran.

was Informed by the United States
pension office that the last soldier Of
the Civil war will die in 1855. That Is
the estimate made by those who
make a study of vital statistics. If
the last veteran survives until that
date he will have lived 80 years aft
er the surrender of Lee.
Kronk, who died couple of years
ago in New York state, was the last
soldier of the war Of 1912, and he
lived considerably more than 80 years
after peace had been signed. Bake
man, the last soldier of the Revolu-
ton, lived for Sc years after the
peace of 1888.
Here is hoping that some man who
wore the blue or gray may fool the
pension Office and round out a full
century after Observation-Disclosures.

Benefit Of Sorrow.

By sorrow men learn that they
need to be fed with higher food: that
they must rest on stronger supports;
that they must have other friends
and other friendships; that they must
live another life; that there must be
something that neither time nor
chance, nor accident can undermine
and sweep away. When men have
learned the interior lessons of SCR
row, they look upon trouble not as
being less troublous than it was, but

Breathing Through the Ears.

"The way to avoid tuberculosis and
lung disease is by breathing through
the ears" says Dr. John E. Davis, of
Virginia university. Man breathed
through his ears before he learned to
use his nose. In early days when man
was a fish he had gills and inhaled
and exhaled through them. Part of
these breathing organs still remain,
and II cultivated can be put to good
use."
He says that If a child is taught to
breathe through his ears after proper
practice he will be able to open or
shut his ears just as a fish works his
gills.
We wonder what our scientists aid
medical men will have to say to this.

Mr.. VANDERBlLT'S II CENTS
Millionaire Takes the Trouble to
Change Dollar to Get Small
Sum of Money.

Mr.. Vanderbilt was notably exact
ing in his personal business relations
of himself as we'll as Of others. At
a meeting of a certain railroads 5oard
of directors of which he was Z mem
Der it was found that several were alb
sent. At full board meeting each
director received ten dollars, and 1t
was the rule that If you were absent
those present shared the total fee.
That is, If but half the members were
present each attending member would
receive twenty dollars, and so proper
tionately On the day of the meeting
referred to the number Of absentees
made the division Of the fee amount
to certain odd dollars and twelve
and a half cents. At the close Of the
meeting, as the secretary handed
each member his apportioned fee, he
accepted the given number Of dollars
and passed up the twelve and half
cents to avoid the bother of making
change. When the secretary came to
Mr.. Vanderbilt, however, he found him
busily counting some small coin from
a purse onto the table. II can change
a dollar for you, and will take the
twelve cents" said Mr.. Vanderbilt;
then smiled as he added, "but I can
not manage the half cent" And the
man worth more than hundred mil
lion dollars had taken the trouble to
change a dollar for the sake of twelve
cents, which, together with the extra
dollars, had come to him by the de-
fault Of others. Had the proposed
halfpenny then been in circulation he
would probably have managed the
half-cent"
The next day Cornelius Vanderbilt
gave half a million dollars to estab-
lish a charity work in New York. And
it was In a measure due to his con-
stantly keeping close tab on the pen
MES in the handling of his large af-
fairs that he was able to make such a
splendid gift in the cause of human
ity.-Richard M. Winans, In Harper's
