If so, sit down before starting out again, or you are asking for bad luck, they say A well-known city man tells how he did this one morning during the last rubber boom, and left the house again without having sat down.
 Everything went wrong with him that day, A slight fall in prices in duced him to sell some rubber shares which before nightfall were worth dou- ble what he had sold for at midday. He will never turn back now, when once he has started from home. upon any consideration whatsoever. He says it isn't worth the risk.

 To-day he is reaping a rich harvest of approval for his foreign policy. For a while his wisdom in dealing with the Mexican situation in the manner he did aroused some doubts even among his admirers, but those doubts have now vanished. His foreign poli- cy has been vindicated more quickly on account of the European war, of course but it was bound to have been vindi- cated sooner or later. The horrible conditions in Europe, however, have brought this entire nation to a prompt realization of how fortunate it is that a man like Woodrow Wilson is in the White House at this time"

Havinq a Friend.

To have a friend is to have a duty that cannot be evaded without moral cowardice I must justify my friends faith in me: and give him a warrant for his affection. l must not do any thing that detracts from what l seem to him to be-to deface my own lm- age in his eyes.
 It is a solemn thing to find that when we are to ourselves most feeble and intellectual there are others who regard us as towers of strength ana pillars 'of virtue-and if we gave up trying it would take the heart out ol them and they would haul down the flag.
 Therefore. it is our duty to do nothing and be nothing that takes from us the strength and the help we are bound to give to those who lean upon our friendship.

The Matrimonial Age.

Men do not marry now so early Tn life as once they did. We do not often hear of young fellow of twenty one taking on the heavy, if delightful responsibility of matrimony. The ldeai bride and bridegroom of thirty years ago were seventeen and twenty-one' respectively. When a girl marrleS now at so early an age the world con- demns her mother for permitting It.
 A spinster bride of forty is perhaps & triHe too mature. But she is De- coming more and more frequent es- pecially in high society. And for some reason the look of youthful freshness can be retained in a perfectly mar velous manner by the woman or today'

TYPHOID AND MALARIAL
 CONDITIONS ARE IMPROVED

State Health Officer F. B. Young re- ports that typhoid and malarial con- ditions throughout the state are great ly improved, and there is very little of either disease anywhere in the state.

ELIMINATING DIAGRAMING
 FROM TEXT BOOKS

Little Rock, Nov. 3.-The elaborate systems of diagramming, which were the bane of grammar study when the older people were young, seems doom- ed to elimination from the textbooks of the future. The author of a text book on grammar is trying it out" on the University of Arkansas, in the Training High School It is the theo- ry of the diagram that it teaches the student the relation of the different parts of the sentence to one another. One student said that one could dia- gram a sentence he had to understand which part belonged together, so nothing was gained Diagrams have practically been banished from the book.

Strength of Cedar.

The resistance of cedar wood to de- cay has long been famous, and cedar fenceposts often last for generations. A remarkable instance of the inde- structibility of cedar has been noted in the state of Washington, where forest of hemlocks. near Acme, has grown up over an ancient buried for est of cedars. The trunks of cedar, although lying in moist soil, have been almost perfectly preserved for at least 150 years, the length of time that the rings of growth show the hemlocks to have been growing above their fallen predecessors.
