NOT ALL OF ONE ACCORD
Sabbath Morning in the Eighteenth
Century Seems to Have Been
Largely Geographical.

Even in Scotland, up to the
middle of the eighteenth century,
Sabbath, according to a contempt
rary writer, never "got aboon the
Pass O Killiecrankie." For genera
tons after the reformation the High
lander on Sunday "drove his cattle
to market, brought home his fuel,
baked his bread, fshed, played shinty
and put the stone" Sunday christen-
ings and penny weddings were COM
non and the presbytery books mere
ly sent warnings against piping, fd-
ding and dancing at them.
But in the lowlands the church
took a sterner view. The assembly
forbade shippers and sailors to begin
any voyage on the Lords day, or to
'loose any ships, barks or boats"
Aberdonians were fined if they failed
to attend worship, the goodman and
gOodwife of the house contravening
paid Is Sd and elk servant Is
Scots" a sore burden to be borne
in the seventeenth century. The rec
ord of absentees is scanty.

Sam had had a rare good holiday,
and was returning to his office feel

He had leaped from his bed feel

remarkably good shave, made a
splendid breakfast-in short, all was
right with the world in his eyes!
On the way to the station he hap
pened to meet his old friend, Glen
Brown.
Halo, Samp said Glen. "How
are you feeling?"
"Fine!" said Sam.
"Thats funny, for you look alb

Medicine That Has Helped Someone
Else May Not Be the Thing for
Your Individual Case.

Be careful about following the adj
vice of your friend when he recon-
mends a certain medicine or some
particular form Of exercise because
it did him good" advises the phys
ical director Of a New York Y. NJ,
C. A. "Some men remain in good
health in spite of the medicine they
take, Others try the same cure and
don't get off so easy. If you wish
to try something that cured your
friend, at least take it in small doses
until you find out how it is going to
work in your case. The strong man
has a way which he recommend to
some one who is not in the same
class with him, and the weaker man
tries it and breaks down.
Twelve different men each rec
commended their favorite medicine
to another who was suffering from a
cold. The sufferer tried one after
the other just because his friends
had advised him that way, and be-
cause he didn't want to hurt any
ones feelings. He got over his cold,
but it was a long time before his
stomach got over the experience. The
attack of stomach trouble which fol-
lowed the dosing was worse than the
cold had been.
"What cures your friend may send
you to the hospital. What another
can do has nothing to do with you.
Try first in small doses any health
scheme you intend to adopt, and
gradually work up. Keep within
the line Of safety. The extremist is
the one who goes to the wall; the
middle of the road is best"

MATTER OF

In regard to Alsace-L Lorraine
which is now such a stormy topic in
Germany, Bismarck once said: "The
French Lorrainers are not half so
bad as they are painted. Those who
are good haters can also be good low
ers. The very first night l slept
in France during the war-and l re-
member, by the way, that l had a
tame but very tough rabbit for sup
per-my host said to me, Tt is all
the same who takes us, Russians or
Prussians; but we prefer those to
whom We should have to pay fewest
taxes | replied that he would have
to pay less to us than to France,
though how long this would last l
could not say" Individual taxation
is now heavier in France than in
Germany.

pion, but after he had finished
Sinnet in the Racine boxing arena
last night he was a decidedly tagged
and tired young man. and didn't look
as much like a class leader as he had
in the opening sessions.
And the big crowd, with one glad
acclaim, pronounced sinnet about as
tough and hardy piece of fighting
machinery az anybody has ever seen.
The battle went the full ten
rounds. and they were filled with
some of the greatest milling ever
shown in the lakeside arena.
After the ten rounds were com
pleted, every fan inside the arena was
willing to admit that Sinnet was the
surprise of the night The youngster
has had only a few fights under his
belt. but he fought like a veteran
against the champion.
With his head lowered. the little
Rock Island bantam would keep aft
er Johnny not even once retreating
in his steps. True, Coulon piled up
many pDlnlS Oh MS ilNdl III lHS cal ~
rounds, but the blows carried little
power behind them.
1t was evident from the first min
ute of fighting that Coulon had a
tough piece of fighting machinery be
fore him Sinnet darted from his
corner at the sound Of the gong, and
at once started after Johnny In a
very businesslike manner. The cham
pion kept using his left hand apidly
in the first two rounds, playing a
tattoo on Sinnet's face and head.
Coulon followed up his advantage
in the third session, jahbing Sinnet' s
eye and nose. The Rock Island boy
started out fast in the fourth, follow
ing instructions from his manager,
Nate Lewis, to keep after the champ.
Sinnet made great showing in this
round, and kept up the good work in
the fifth and sixth periods.
The youngster weakened in the
seventh and eighth rounds, and Cou-
lon had a slight shade in both ses-
sions. The boys fought hard in the
ninth and tenth. with honors even.
