Colors and Moods.

People to whom certain colors repre-
sent sounds or emotions have long
been laughed at, but scientific work on
the suns rays is proving them to
have justificatin for their theories.
Red, it appears, is the most exciting
and stimulating of all colors and has
a special effect on the activity of the
brain. Blue, which so many people in
an age of great nervous strain and
tension find soothing, is so in reality.
Unless you are in a depressed and
melancholy state sea blue Curtains at
your bedroom windows have a bene-
fetal effect, especially il you face
south and get the morning sun.
Color indeed, especially in flowers,
has an extraordinary effect on the
mental condition. The sight Of Grim
son. pink and amethyst rhododendrons
growing in the open air has a curious
ly uplifting and joyous effect.-New
York Sun.

a Day VIII Come,

A day will come when the only
battlefield will be the market open to
commerce and the mind opening to
new ideas. A day I'll cone when bull
lets and bombshells will be replaced
by votes, by the universal suffrage Of
nations, by the venerable arbitration
of great sovereign senate, which will
be to Europe what the parliament is
to England, what the diet is to Ger
many, what the legislative assembly
is to France. A day will come when
q cannon will be exhibited in public
museums, just as an instrument of
torture is now, and people will be as
tonished how such a thing could have
been A day will come when these
two immense groups, the United
States of America and the United
States of Europe, shall be seen placed
in presence of each other. extending
the hand of fellowship across the
ocean.-Victor Hugo.

DEATH is DUE TO
NATURAL CAUSES
John Howe Is Found Dead in
Bed at Lodging House by
Fellow Roomer.
CAN FIND NO RELATIVES
Reported There Are Several in Rock
Island, but Police Fai; to
Locate Them.

Death due to natural causes, was
the verdict turned IN by a coroner s
jury this morning, which investigated
the death of John Howe, aged 80 years,
who was found dead in his bed at a
rooming house, 324 Fourth avenue. S.
G. Lund, another roomer at the place,
discovered Howe's lifeless body this
morning. He knocked at the door of
the room for the purpose of waking up
the occupant. Failing to receive a re-
ply he forced entrance and found the
man dead.
At the inquest it was stated that the
deceased had suffered for years with
and of late had complain
ed of being troubled with his heart and
lungs.
Here for IS Years.
Deceased has lived in Moline and
Rock Island for the past 25 years, and
as near as is known leaves no rela-
tives. It is reported that he has rela-
tives residing in Rock Island, but eff
forts of the police to locate them have
proved unavailing. If any are found
funeral arrangements will be up to
them, but if not the county will have
TO stand the expenses. The body is at
the Knox morgue.

First, Second and Third Rate Boys.

In the January American Magazine
Charles X. Taylor writes an interesting
article entitled Better Boys" in which
lie presents new standards for judging
your boys physical development. lie
divides boys into three classes the
heavy type--and he gives the stand
medium type-and he gives the stand
ard measurements in each of these di-
visions for boys of from to Is years
of age. He then shows how delinquent
boys in the various divisions can im-
prove and bring themselves up TO the
proper standards This system is in
practical use in Philadelphia, as the fol-
lowing extract from Mr.. Taylor's article
will show.
"In some of the public schools OF
Philadelphia boys may be seen wearing
pretty little buttons on their coats.
There are three designs and two quali-
ties of button. One made cheaply of
eelluloid, is a simplified form of the
shield of the United states. Another
button, similar in design, has white
ring around it. The third button is well
and strongly made of plated metal and
enamel, with two rings around the de-
sign, one white, the other blue.
wearing the last button signifies
that its wearer has 'first-class
physique, and the first button men
toned indicates that the wearer physi-
cally at least, is distinctly third rate
"You wouldn't think a boy would
wear button advertising himself as
third rate would you? But he does
for the simple reason that there are
very desirable clubs and activities to
which boy from one of these schools
cannot belong unless he wears one of
the league buttons. So the third
rater wears his miserable button until
he makes up enough of his physical
weakened to get at least into the second
rate class, and finally, if he has energy
and ambition enough, into the first
class. All this is a part. of an expert
ment in direct character development.
