Rlamarck ON Russian.

Although Bismarck knew Russian
well, he declined to take any notice of
dispatches addressed to the German
foreign Office in that language. "My
predecessor, he once related, wrote to
all the diplomatists in German. and
they replied each in his own language

lions received in languages other than
German, French, English and Italian
should be left unnoticed. Budberg. the
Russian ambassador in Berlin. wrote
me screed after screed always in Rus
sian. No answer was returned, and
at last he came to ask the reason for
my silence. There is a great pile Of
documents in Russian downstairs I
told him; yours are probably amongst
them. We have no one who under
stands Russian. and / have given in
structions for all documents written In
language we do not understand to

many suicides are the direct result Of
exhausted brain cells.
Not long ago a boy in Sew York
was driven to suicide from overtaxing
his brain in an effort to pass difficult
examinations in school. The boy was
ambitious and was obliged to do er.
rands before and after school In order
to buy his clothing, and then he would
sit up and study half the night. When
the examinations came around he was
in no physical condition to take them.
His mentality was utterly depleted.
The boy became respondent, melan.
choiy, and several times tried to blow
out his brains with a revolver; a last
desperate attempt succeeded.
Hundreds Of cases Of this kind
might be cited when boys and girls
all over the country are driven to
suicide, or permanently injure their
health by overstudy, excessive brain
stimulation.
Who can estimate the tragedies
which have resulted from exhausted
brain and nerve cells-from the
poison of fatigue7

A Bows Work.

As a general rule, the man that is
worth anything to his country and the
world is he who, when a boy, had
learned to work. The only channel Of
reform lies in the direction Of boys
life. The only worth, the only truth,
the only happiness is in doing. This
does not mean drudgery. 1t is the en-
ployment Of ones thought or ones
hands in the accomplishment of some
thing OF value to life. There is no
value in mere learning. A man may
know all mathematics and I'll classics
and then be no more than a mere fig.

cannot be talked into a boy. II comes

that influence is is the greatest prob

demoralized his faculties that he dis
regarded danger signals. thus causing
the loss OF many precious lives.
We all know that our ability dete'
riorates, that our efficiency Is cut
down when we are mentally exhaust
ed. Our courage. our initiative. our
perceptions, our power OF fine dis
elimination and appreciation, as we'll
as our observation and our hearing

tainty Of memory.
know a business man who has
tremendous brain power, but much OF
his work is exceedingly ordinary ana
tame, because he does It when his
brain is faded and tagged. He is con-
stantly working under a great strain.
The result is that his Judgment.
which is very remarkable when he 10
rested, is much OF the time poor, and
he is frequently irritated because he
makes foolish, unaccountable blum
ders.
We cannot cheat nature without
paying the penalty. We may force the
brain to do a little extra work one
day, but We get the protest in reac-
ton the next day. The brain Will al
ways do its maximum of work during
the year II 1t is only required to give
out each day the force which Is gen.
Grated in that day without drawing
upon the reserve. Who overdraws
from this daily supply faces mental
bankruptcy.
When overfatigued many people
make the mistake Of sleeping just
nine hours-when, as a matter OF fact,
they should sleep until they feel abso-
lutely refreshed, renewed. II Is only
then that the debris, the broken.down
tissues, all the poisons from the
previous days run. have been elimi-
mated.
We have all had the experience Of
retiring at night completely discour-
aged over something We were trying
to accomplish, and waking In the
morning with an entirely changed
mental attitude-new hope and a new
resolve. This is due to the fact that
the poisons have been eliminated
during our sleep, which has also In
creased the resisting power Of the
body and filed the blood with new
building material, new courage, new
energy, new life. In fact, after a re-
freshIng sleep we wake into new
world, a world of hope and expecta-
ton. This is why We should make It
a life rule not to decide important
things at night when tired and dis
couraged. We are apt to do things
then which We will regret in
the morning. after the poisons have
been burned out Of the system and
we are made over into new creatures.
Sleep, rest, complete relaxation, is
simply the antidote for brain poison.

full in line, and their making displays
exquisite workmanship.
Many elderly women prefer a black
hat to all others. It Is a mistake to
Indulge this preference unless black is
becoming. But every woman wants at
least one black hat, and every elderly
woman should possess one. There Is
no good reason why white-haired
women should not wear rich and love
" eolors and brilliant millinery, but
there are many occasions when the
woman and the occasion require black.
A between-seasohs hat is really an
all-the-year-round hat. One Of those
shown here IL made Of faille silk and
the other Of hair braid. The hat Of
silk Il made on q toque frame having
the coronet covered with folds Of silk
