Height of the Panama Canal.

The middle section of the Panama
canal thirty-four miles long, has wa
ter level of eighty-flve feet higher than
the two end sections, which are sea
levels. Vessels entering the canal from
the ocean on either side are lifted to
the middle section. height of eighty
five feet, by three sets of locks. each
Of which raises the vessel a fraction
over twenty eight feet. making a total
of eighty-five feet. These locks are
constructed side by side like a double
track railway, so that one ship may be
going up while the other is going down.
Only one ship can be in lock at the
same time. but as the locks are CON
structed in pairs. side by side. two
ships going in opposite directions, one
going up the incline and the other go
ing down, may pass each other within
hailing distance Vessels are tOwed
through the locks by electric ma
chinery.- Philadelphia Press.

EXERCISE AND EATING.
Remember That Tired Stomach Is a
Weak Stomach.

A good dinner at night is necessary
for those whose pleasure or work
keeps them UP very late. But for or
binary folk, who dine at 6 or and go
to bed about 1870, only Il light, whole
some repast SHOULD be taken at the
end of the day, when muscles or nerves
are more or less exhausted. says a
physician.
A "tired stomach is q weak stom-
ach" is golden rule to remember.
Yet how often one hears people say:
give been rushing about all day. and
am tired to death. l must have big
meal to make up for it!' You may put
she big meal into the stomach, but you
cannot make the stomach digest it.
A belief lives strong in the hearts
and minds of the majority of man
kind, including persons of weak diges-
ton, that quick brisk walk taken
before meal gets up an appetite and
helps the stomach digest the food.
Now, this is exactly what it doesn't
do. Exercise spreads the blood through
the body. The old fashioned midday
dinner is not bad thing.-Washing-
ton Star.

Probably.

At dinner one evening 81 discussion
arose about the peculiar customs in
foreign countries. One gentleman told
of the Chinese customs. which are
nearly all the exact reverse of our own.
"They use white for mourning. black
for rejoicing and mourn at birth
while they rejoice at DEATH he re-
marked 1.-THE needle of their COM
pass points to the south. and they
draw the saw toward them to cut.
These customs may easily be account
ed for, but there remains one which
l cannot explain. Why do they take
their soup at the end of the meal in
stead of at the beginning?'
Another man ventures, "To fill up

sALUTED BY A SONG.
Jenny Lind's Graceful Tribute to Our
National Flag.

Jenny Lind's Graceful Tribute to Our
National Flag.
There is a pretty story told of the
honor Jenny Lind once paid to the
American flag. 1t was when she was
in New York. more than sixty years
ago The frigate st Lawrence had
Just returned from cruise. and the
midshipmen went to hear the Swedish
nightingale sing at Castle Garden the
alter, and the next day they called on
her in a body. Their enthusiasm and
her graciOusness soon brought about
a visit to the ship and the acceptance
of luncheon rendered her. When she
was about to leave the ship she looked
up at the stars and stripes and said:
81 wish to salute your flag"
SO, standing on the gangway, she
sang "The Star Spangled Banner" 81
lently from all over the ship men gath
cred with uncovered heads until the
ships family were all assembled on
deck. Nor were they her only audi
ence, for borne upon the still air her
song had been heard by many other
vessels near by, and when the won
drous voice ceased steamers blew their
whistles and eXultant cheers rose from
all sides, filling the harbOr with their
tribute of applause for the beloved
artist and Of loyal reverence for the
flag she had SO beautifully saluted.-

WHAT'S IN A NAME?
A Plea For Correctly Designating
Places and Celebrities.

Frederick Upham Adams objects in
his Conquest of the Tropics to the
name usually given to the discoverer
of America.
Speaking of the immortal Columbus,
why do we call him by that name?
He never bore while living any such
name. He was born of the Italian
family of Colombo" When he en-
tered the Spanish service he changed
his name to "Cristobal Colon" And
we insist on calling him Columbus"
In Spain, Mexico, Central America
and all Spanish speaking countries the
natives never heard of the United
States" They translate it into "Es-
tados Unidos," and they have as much
right to call it that as we have to call
Espana by the title of Spain or
Roma by the title of "Rome."
l hold that we should call countries
and cities and celebrities by their true
names, and not stick to the clumsy
derivations which have laZily been
substituted. There is no such city as
vienna" unless it happens to be
some village in the United States
The great Austrian capital is named
Wien" and only those who speak
the English language call it anything
else. There is no such city as "Brus-
sels," but the beautiful capital of Bel
GUM is really named "Bruxelles."
1t is time that we called the great
diScOyerer by the name under which
he achieved immortal fame, Cristobal
Colon. We would not like it if the
Russians insisted that the father of
our country was named "Washeski-

FDahlen always came straight down

there was no telling what he would do.
He had great way Of anticipating
where the throw from the catcher was

denly would fall down on his hips,
to one side or the other, spread his
legs and then use the greatest clever

who used this famous hook slide, but
he did it to a nicely. He never was
particularly dangerous man to try
to block, but blocking him off never
seemed to do much good. He was al.
