Life. to a great many people. is
merely a resting place between plans

SHIFTLESSNESS.
Take. for example. this vision We all
have had of some day owning a cozy
home with a porch. lawn. trees. flower
and vegetable garden and all the other
honey joys. Even as tiny tots we
played keeping house." made mud
pies and initiated our elders In ways
that evidenced the perfectly natural
desire for home and home comforts
and home independence.
a little later. still dreaming of that
home, We made eyes at some slip of
a girl and fancied her presiding over
our household.
After school days came the business
career. We still thought Of that home
and resolved to begin saving to pay
for II. But frivolous amusements
bid for our attention-AND OUR
MONEY. And finally when THE girl
Of girls appeared We had nothing to
offer her but the bitter fruit of vast
cd opportunities.

French Pensioners.

The Hotel Des Invalides which now
has no more than two or three dozen
pensioners will, following this war,
without doubt have great number
Before the Invalides was founded by
Louis XIV, the invaded pensioners
were lodged by the king at Bicetre
These took possession of the hotel in
1874. The battle Of Hochstedt (Blen
heinz, increased the number by TO-,
600. The War of the 1evolution and
the First Empire increased the mum
Der still more: it was $4,000 after Ma

could not lodge all these pensioners

ninety years. Among these was one

GOES BACK TO ARIST0PHANES
Punctuation System Said to Have
Been First Employed by Famous
Greek Philosopher.

The punctuation marks which sep
arate and conclude sentences and
thereby simplify the perusal of what
is written are said to have been first
employed by Aristophanes. The sys-
tenn devised by him was not, however.
generally known, and soon fell again
into complete oblivion. 1t was nearly
thousand years before a similar at
tempt was again made. 1t was in the
time of Charles the Great that punctu-
alton marks were again introduced in
to writing at the instigation of the dis
tinguished linguists Warnefried and
Alcuin. These signs also, however,
fell into disuse. The present system
of punctuation, now used in all mod
ern languages with but Insignificant
variations, was introduced in the first
half of the fifteenth century by Vene-
tian printer named Aldus Manutius.
He is the real father of our punctua-
tion marks, of the full stop. comma,
semicolon, colon, question and exclam-
a.ion marks. apostrophe and inverted
commas. Manutius' system was adopt
ed later by all printers until 1t finally
established itself throughout Europe.

LEARN TO DO BY DOING.

Theory and book learning are not
OF secondary Importance. They occu-
Ply major positions in every form of
education. Without them experience
would not be well founded.
Thinking and planning begin in the
DRY, but are valuable only if they
go beyond theory and enter practice.
The dreamer, even though he may
possess marvellous talents, remains
theorist, and little that he does &C.
composites anything. He begins and
does not finish.
The best, way to learn to do thing
is to do it, or to try to do it, even
though the first result may be unfn-
1shed and near 20 worthless.
The pencil draft, born in the mind,
needs linking in so to speak, and
those finishing touches which enable
one to build something from it. Exact
though it may be, it does not prove
its reliability until that which it rep
resents is actually done.
Many young man equipped with
technical education enters the world
of business feeling that his diploma
entities him to immediate recognition
and to a high position. This knowl-
edge, which the school has given him,
is the best foundation he can have;
for, if he has been good student,
he is equipped for accomplishment.
If, however, he expects this thecreti-
cal and partially practical training
to obtain for him a commanding po-
sition at the start, he is sure tC be
disappointed. He has done we'll. He
began right. He has in him knowl-
edge which may be of untold benefit
to him, yet this school or book edu-
cation, valuable as it is, needs work
ing out in the shop of trade or the
office of business, where he will learn
to do by doing.
However liberal the school may be,
it is only the beginning of his educa-
ton. 1t simply equips him to handle
himself to better advantage. He then
goes out into the practical world,
and, with this more or less theoretical
knowledge, attempts to do things.
When he has done these things, he
has added to his academic knowledge
that experience which, combined with
what goes before it, makes him more
proficient than he would have been if
he had enjoyed either one without the
other.
Therefore say to you, young man,
get all the school education that you
can use to advantage. Realize the
value of technical training, whether
it is in mechanics. or in business.
Learn the theory, and then practice
on that theory.
Learn to do by doing, even though
what you do may be full of faults.
Your mistakes, if properly treated.
will be stepping-stones to accomplish
ment. Keep on doing, however, look
ing upon each experiment or action
as a part of your training, which
training should continue as long as
you live, for you never will reach pre-
ficiency, nor will you ever approach
it, if you forget to learn while you
are doing.
There is no place in this world for
the fellow who will not learn, or who
thinks that he has finished his educa-
ton.
Business never graduates its pupils.
They are in school forever.

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
wen known nowadays. AS soon as
kioneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
