The idea OF Joy. in ones work has
been often ridiculed but nevertheless
ID Is fast taking root In the minds or
many and proving Its value and merit.
Today many things are done, many
principles accepted, which were con-
s.dercd absurd or not considered at all
a generation ago. To perform the
DAYS work joyfully and joyously may
not be possible, in cases, without 'ef-
fort, but the fact is being realized
more and more that II is very much
worth while to develop the habit.
This plan has no limitations or en-
vlronment Whether In the home. in
the office. IN the factory, or at re-
creation time, YOU can take cheerful
ress and willingness and eagerness
with YOU. The days burdens are
iightened, fatigue Is kept at dis
lance, depression IL not given a chance
10 get YOU in It's clutch. Not only are
YOU good company for yourself. but
ior others. Your Joy In what you are
DONG surrounds you and spreads to
your associates. Disease is not the oniy
thing which spreads.
II has been proved that anger and
violent emotion cause for the time be-
ing poisonous condition OF the
blood which Is injurious. IL must be
equally true that facing the passing
hour with mouth turned up at the
corners and a mind alert for the pest
that the day offers is beneficial. This
is pretty decent old world after all
II we but trust IL right. And surely
II we face our obligations and our
work, not with frowns, but with glad
ness. II will give us more kindly
greeting and helping hand TO return.

Footner In recent book, for not only

has made use of the Indians, perhaps
more than any present-day novelist.

UNDISTURBED BY THE CLAMOR
Sudden and Deafening Noise Had No
Effect on Occupant of New
York Park.

He was lost in dreamy 'contempla-
ton of the busy thoroughfare with it's
hurrying throng, unminded of the
CRIME and stains that marked and
marred his old-fashioned garments,
when suddenly there resounded upon
the air an ear-splitting roar, a terrific
clangor, a stifled shrek from some
frightened women, babel of voices
and rush Of scurrying feet.
He stood transfixed, rooted to the
spot, without power to move a muscle,
an expression of unconscious agony
upon his noble face. Breathlessly he
waited, unmindful of the curious
chances bestowed upon him, and the
little newsboys crouching at his feet,
his gaze fixed rigidly upon the spot
from whence had arisen that cry of
terror. The crowd parted, a heavy
truck moved lumberingly aside and a
Broadway surface car went on it's way.
Still he did not move, nor did the
stern expression upon his bronzed
features relax
For he alone of all that crowd had
nerves sufficiently hardened to with
stand the terrifying clamor and con-
fusion. He was the statue of Nathan

Regardless of what it was that
brought about the declaring off of the
threatened strike of the ball players,
it is for the best interests of the game
that no strike was taken. Baseball
has withstood numerous abuses since
its birth and has lived and prospered
under them, but there is danger of the
public becoming Disguised with the
methods now in vogue, says the Wash
ington Star. The advent of the Fed
eral league, which caused players to
jump their contracts, has already had
a detrimental effect on the interest
in the sport, the attendance this sea-
son having fallen off materially as
result. Had the players gone into a
strike, as they threatened the game
would have been dealt blow from
which it might never have recovered.
1t is being intimated that there was
something more behind the threatened
strike than the Kraft case. 1t may
have been a Federal league scheme,
for if there had been a strike, the
chances are that many of the players
would have deserted organized base
ball and gone to the Feds. In this
way the independent organization
would have been made a major league
proposition in single night. Ball

WHY POISON IVY POISONS7
French Scientist Discovers Cause in
the Presence of Prussic Acid
in the Plant.

Poison ivy has long been a mystery
both to scientists and laymen; why
and in what manner it causes the pc
culiar rash and irritating infiamma-
ton have puzzled both botanists and
physicians. At last the reason has
been discovered. Doctor Mirande of
Paris read to the Academy of Sciences
in that city recently the result of his
study of the poisonous weed.
Poison ivy contains prussic acid.
This is found principally in the young
leaves and buds; in older leaves there
is very little of it.
In three and one-half ounces of
young leaves there is about a quar-
ter of a grain of the acid
AS with other plants in which prus-
sic acid is found, the poisonous sub
Stance does not exist in it's perfect
form, but develops as soon as the
leaves are bruised, chemical action
being set up through the union of an
engine with a glucosid.
