Our Useless Buttons.

Masculine dress still reflects the in
fIuence of the military uniform.
Many of our useless buttons may be
blamed on military ancestors. It is
related that Frederick William. king
of Prussia, was excessively annoyed
because his soldiers persisted in wip-
ing their noses on their coat sleeves,
even when on dress parade. So he
ordered the military tailors to sew
buttons on the coal sleeves as a means
of discouraging this habit. The but
tons are still with US.
Have you ever wondered as to the
why of the buttons that are fastened
in the middle of the back of the
Prince Albert coat that Deacon Smith
wears on Sundays, or the long-tailed
cutaway that Lawyer Jones dons
when he tries big case? Originally
those buttons were intended to keep
a sword belt from sagging.-American

EXCELLENT ADVICE TO BOYS
General Nosi, Idol Of Japanese soi-
diery. Said Among Other Things,
Keep Mouth Closed.

Some time before he died. General
Nogi, idol Of the Japanese soldiery,
sent a letter to the students at the
Peers school which contained the fol-
lowing instructions worth considering,
by the way. by every American boy
who aims to make the best of himself:
Keep your mouth closed. He who
has always his mouth open shows that
his mind is blank.
Mind what you are looking at. One
whose eye is always wandering tells
that his mind is also wandering.
Do not forget your coat-of-arms, fam.
fly standing and ancestors. Due re-
spect to your ancestors is important.
A boy should act like boy. Avoid
becoming effeminate.
Never indulge in luxury. There is
nothing that makes fool Of man
like luxury.
How many Of you wash your face
with cold water in the winter? You
should not use warm water.
It is shame to wear torn clothes
without mending them. But to wear
the torn part patched is nothing to be
ashamed Of.
Know what is shame; he who does
not know what is shame is inferior to
dumb animals.
Become man useful to your coun-
try. Whoever cannot be SO is better
dead.

SHOW SUPREMACY OF SOUL
Bright Spots in Dark Incidents Of
the Great Conflict Going on
in Europe.

Courage is the universal possession
of the German, the Englishman, the
Frenchman. the Belgian, the Austrian,
the Russian and the Japanese. The
stories of individual coolness and dar-
ing are so many that they have al
most ceased to attract special atten-
ton. Ike other day, when the Brit
ish dreadnaught Formidable went
down in :. storm, crushed like an egg
shell by torpedoes or mines. its cap
tain-Loxley-was on the bridge as 1t
sank; and his last words were:
STEADY men; it's all right; keep cool:
do not get In panic; be British"
Every officer was at his post; many
Of them lad lighted cigarettes. This
stirring exhibition of the fact that
the man does not die when his body
falls in the trenches or sinks in the
ocean can be matched in every navy
and army. All Europe Is fighting for
invisible things. There never was
such universal and commanding evl'
dence that the soul of humanity Is su'
preme and inyincible.-From the Out

the end of which embraced the metal
circle SO as to maintain the two parts
in constant contact. Both of these
forms were in favor years and years
ago, and in the meantime their popu-
larity waned and other forms of
amusement devices took the place Of
the hoop to a great extent. Now 1t is
sprung" on the youth of the present
day in slightly different form. It is
made entirely OF metal and the main
difference as compared with its pred
ecessors is that It is many sizes

the diameter Of the old one. As boy

IMAGINATION is GOOD THING
It Takes Dreamer.to See Transforms
tion Intelligent Effort viii Bring
to Pass.

It is GOOD thing for the farmer boy
to have an Imagination. It is a good
thing for him to dream dreams and
see visions" It takes a dreamer to
see the transformation that intelligent
effort will bring to pass on the old
place. 1t takes dreamer to see how
much more desirable that place will
De in ten years than a job in a dry
goods store.
1t is the boy who dreams who sees
a field of thrifty alfalfa where that
stunted yellow corn is growing on the
timber forty. 1t is the boy who dreams
who sees those hungry-lookins cows
replaced by herd of dairy matrons
that tax the capacity of the milk cans
at every milking. It is the boy who
dreams who sees a waving corn field
where the cattails are growing, who
sees woven wire fence in place OF
the old hedge. and new barn where
the COW shed is falling to pieces.
We need more dreamers on the
Farmer.

EXERCISE IN THE OPEN AIR
very Few Days In Year When Person
Who 10 Wrapped UP Cannot Sit
In Sheltered, sunny Corner.

One great difference between out
door air and indoor air is tnat the first
cIrcuiates freely and the second Is
stagnant. Another difference is that
foods of sunshine constantly cleanse
outdoor air of its impurities, but most
rooms get very little Of that useful
commodity. Many persons who visit
the physician with complaints Of poor
digestion and anemia declare that they
are active all day long and that go
ing out for walks is the last thing they
need.
They may be right about the amount
of exercise they get, but people con-
stantiy fall sick in spite Of plenty Of
exercise In the house. and get well
again with little outdoor exercise. A
certain amount Of active work about
the house is good for everyone. but
there ought to be, some daily outdoor
life as well.
1t does not follow that that outdoor
life ought to include violent exercise.
or even any exercise at all. Why
should the housemother pc told that
she cannot keep well unless she
uTGbSc6 up "dihihe SAotASS 49,
takes a long walk after fatiguing
morning of physical labor in the
house? Tired people should do their
resting in the open air. There are
very few days in the year when a
person who is warmly wrapped up
cannot sit with comfort In sheltered.
sunny corner. Everyone knows how
babies thrive when they take their
maps outdoors; the principle applies to
the adult also.
1t is q matter of scientific record
that people whose daily occupation
obliges them to sit in the open air
such as market women, attendants at
fruit stands and newspaper sellers
are robust people, who do not take
cold easily. Yet it is probable that
few people take less exercise.
Let 1t be understood that this is
not at all an argument against phys
ical exercise That is not only excel
lent, but in most cases necessary. But
you need not forego both air and exer-
else because you cannot conveniently
have both; open.air life without exer-
else is much more healthful than in
door life with it.-Youth's Companion.
