Living in Poise.

To improve yourself, the first essen

by living in poise. The second essen
tial Is to use your imagination In pic

teal use that can be made Of the i'm
agination is to picture your talents and
faculties larger, greater and more
perfect. To imagine in mind larger

Wordsworth ON Real Estate

There is an interesting story OF
Wordsworth, who went to call on Miss
Harriet Martineau at Ambleside, in
the house which she had built and laid
out, writes A. G. Benson in the Cen.
fury Magazine. There was q gathering
of neighbors present, and Wordsworth
stood for a long time at the window
contemplating the beautiful landscape
outside. Then lie turned TO the party
and said:
Miss Martineau, congratulate you
on your beautiful little domain. The
views are wonderful, and it will turn
out to be the wisest thing you ever did
In your life"
He paused for a moment, and the
guests expected some comment on the
uplifting effects of communion with
nature, but Wordsworth, with a fine
gesture, continued:
Your property will certainly be
trebled in value within the next ten
years!"

PEARLS FIND READY MARKET
Those From the Mississippi Only
Slightly Second In Demand to
Deep Water Products.

Arkansas is the greatest pearl pro.
ducing state In the Union, and hun.
dreds Of men engage In the pearl
hunt. 1t is said that the fresh water
pearl Of Arkansas of the highest class
cannot be distinguished from the fin
est deep sea jewel. Throughout the
south generally thousands of people
follow the pearl fishing industry and
make a comfortable living at It. Up
to few years ago the jewel wealth
contained in the river beds OF the
Mississippi valley was completely hid
den. 1t was not supposed that the
fresh water mussel was n pearl bear
er, or that it had any value except for
fish bait.
The fresh water mussel is sought
now not only for the precious stone it
may have hidden in its shell, but for
the shell itself, which is manufac-
tured into stick pins, cuff links, and
buttons of every description. The
she'll fisheries have for years extend
ed far up the Mississippi river. A re-
cent writer OH the subject puts fresh
water pearls into four classifications
true pearls, baroques, slugs, and
chicken feed.
The first. or true, pearls are of
definite shape, and regular form,
round, oval, or pear shaped. These
command the highest prices. Baroques
are pearls of irregular form. Slugs
are low grade baroques. The smaller
size, the kind used in inexpensive
though genuine and neat jewelry, go
by the professional name OF chicken
feed.

MERELY A POPULAR BELIEF
Scholars Question Whether the Apple
Was the "Forbldden Fruit" In the
Garden of Eden.

Why and how 1t has happened that
the apple has been spoken of as the
fruit that was forbidden in the Gar
den of Eden is one of the great puz-
zles of Biblical scholars. The fact is
that in Genesis 8, where the incident
of the eating of this fruit of the "Tree
of knowledge of Good and Evil' is
mentioned, no name whatever is given
to the fruit. All that is said is: "And
when the woman saw that the tree
was good for food, and that it was
pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be
desired to make one wise, she took of
the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave
also unto her husband with her; and
he did eat (verse s..
In fact, scholars doubt very serious,
ly whether it was the apple at all.
They suggest that all evidence points
to it having been the ounce, fragrance
of which was held in the highest es-
TEEN by the Orientals. Another point
in favor of the ounce is that it is the
fruit which was sacred to Venus, the
goddess Of live, and in a great many
of the ancient writings the ounce is
very frequently mentioned in this man.

ogy, and it should be remembered
that the story of the creation origina-

dence seems to point away from the
apple having been the Forbidden
Fruit" and towards the ounce as hav-
ing been that fruit of the Tree Of
knowledge of Good and Evil"

NOW WILL THE
ROBBERS CONFESS

Was it game of bluff that the
manufacturers were playing when
they predicted so fiercely that if the
tariff that has just been enacted
and put into effect should ever be-
come law if would spell ruin for
them and for the industries they
conducted, as we'll as for the whole
country?
Will the country experience a
period of industrial, commercial
and financial stagnation through
the operations of this law, or have
those who profited from the pro-
tective system simply been seeking
to bluff us all into leaving them
undisturbed in their graft?
A significant note comes from
Lawrence, Mass. Most of US will
recall how during the strike in the
great wooden industries of that
city, the manufacturers Of wooden
fabrics were raucously proclaiming
their certainty that if they were to
pay the wages demanded they
would all go broke. -
Then we heard them again later
proclaiminR that if the proposed
tariff bill were to pass with it's pro-
visions for radically reducing the
tariff tax on imported wooden goods
they would all be forced out of
business, because they just SIM
ply had to have protection to en-
able them to compete with foreign
cheap labor.
Hence it has been interesting to
read in the Boston News Bureau Of
recent issue that American Wooden
stock, preferred, was up 81 points
"since lower tariff was assured"
That although Woods compeny
doesn't have to operate more than
60 per cent of the capacity of its
plant to fill current orders "it ex-
poets to maintain its unbroken pre-
ferred dividend rate of fifteen
Years." and that cen its big selling
lines it is Offering prices which
actually defy foreign competition"
How are We to account for it?
Paying more wages than befure,
operating only part of its plant,
this trust is defying foreign com
petition, expecting meanwhile to be
able to earn it's usual dividends.
The situation in regard to this
trust has excited attention through
out the eastern press, not only
among the papers that favored |
tariff reduction, but those that op-
posed it. 1t has been suggested by |
one Of the former that there must
oe merit in making a trust hustle |
for living. However it is known
that most of the conditions that
must arise from the new tariff |
measure we're long ago anticipated
ny the trust So that nothing radi-
cal in results will be discernable
Immediately after the taking effect
Of the law.
But if you had been a manufac-
turer clamoring piteousIy for fifty
years that the masses should tax
themselves for your benefit, and
insisting that if the advantage of
that tax were denied you it would
put you out Of business, what
would you do now, the people hsv-
ing refused to be longer taxed for
you.
Wouldn't you feel that YOU must
either bust up or confess that you
had been shsmefully, il not crimi-
nally imposing upon good nature
and robbing your benefactor?-St
Joseph Observer. !

How 10 Keep Young.

A woman sixty-three yearsold,
has just won the honors at a
"Turnfest" held by the Denver
branch of the German athletic
society known as the Turner'S" +"
She was forty-fve before she
learned to swim, fifty when she
learned to dance, and beyond
fifty when she became an all
round athlete.
Here is her receipt for keep
ing young:
Devote yourself to swimming
dancing, riding, running and
walking. Keep young inside,
be an optomist; refuse to worry
over spilled milk; don't marry
under thirty, and then only
when you are mt Tor motherhood.
Don't neglect your children, but
don't let them neglect yourself.
Don't think you must sit about
knitting just because you are a
grandmother"
The formula will not always
keep a woman young, but wom-
en-, upon the average, are ten
years younger at any time after
middle age if they decline to con-
slider it time to settle down to
accepted old age. And a major
ity of the corpulent women be-
yond middle age owe their cor.
pulency to failure to try to keep
young by suitable exercise. =
