A Boys 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 a 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.
urehead. And this disposition to work
cannot be talked into a boy. 1t comes
the same way a flower does-out from
under some gentle influence. What
that influence is is the greatest prob
lem of life.-Columbus Ohio State

can get the hobos together and run
the hostelry on cooperative scheme.
Every hobo will have to go out every

In return for his labors he will get a

This plan is also expected to furnish
the city at a moderate cost with any
extra large amount of laborers it may
have need of in any emergency. The
food supply Of the hotel will consist
of voluntary contributions, but no
hobo need expect to feed at the ex.

HAS NOVEL MACHINE
Inventor Says It Will Fly, Run,
Swim and Dive.
Denver Man Took Bumblebee az
Model for His Remarkable Con-
trivanee-WiII Make Up to
800 Miles an Hour.

Denver.-William A. Sharpe, a me-
chanic. after IL years of experiment.
ing, is completing a machine which,
he says, can fly, run, swim and dive.
1t is designed to carry four passen-
gers. 1t will derive its lifting and pro-
polling power from the rotation of
wheels and revolving and oscillating
propellers.
Sharpe is fifty-two years old and a
mechanical engineer, and has pat
ented an automobile starter, an auto
primer and a captive aeroplane.
He is constructing his new combi-
nation machine at Sixteenth and
Broadway. He says it will travel on
the ground with the smoothness and
swiftness of a racing automobile or
shoot into the air with the perfect
equilibrium and ease of a swallow, and
be poised there; navigate the ocean
with the speed of a motor boat, or can
be used as submarine. 1t is designed
to attain a speed Of from 80 to 300
miles an hour, carrying 1000 pounds
for each 1000 pounds weight of the
car. There are four wheels on the
car. and in each wheel there are four
propellers. The entire vehicle is built
Of pressed steel and aluminium.
THE device is designed on we'll
recognized principles" says Sharpe.
Nothing new is attempted in the
steering device. transmission system,
differential. lighting system, gear shift
or motor. l have designed propeller
blades, rotating within the circumfer.
ence of a wheel, which by an ingen-
ious system Of opposing or presenting
the broad surface Of the propeller
blades during their downward stroke,
and presenting the edge of the pro-
peller blades during their upward
stroke, exert a lifting power of the
combined surface of the blades in an
upward and forward motion.
Il have planned to spend $4,000 on
my first machine, although the cost Of
the machines when put on the market
will be no more than a standard auto
mobile. The body Of my car will be
IS feet long and 80 inches wide. The
wheels are "a inches in diameter and
weigh 100 pounds and will mike 400
revolutions per minute. ;
For years l made a study, of the
humble bumblebee and came to the
conclusion that If machine could be
constructed embodying the principles
Of flight employed by the bee it would
be a success in both air and water"

CAT BATTLES WITH TURTLE

Philadelphia-When B. F. Magnin

casion the poison OF fatigue haG so
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 well
as our observation and our hearing
are impaired, because the blood and
other secretions are loaded with
poison, which benumbs the faculties.
No man can do his best when he Is
obliged to spur on his faded faculties;
when he feels his mentality tagging
and is compelled to force 1t to yield
by pressure. There must be sponta-
neity in the thought or there will be
no vividness OF Imagination. no GER
tainty Of memory.
know a business man who has
tremendous brain power. but much OF
his work is exceedingly ordinary and
tame, because he does 1t when mis-
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 is
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 If 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. 1t 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 filled the blood with new
building material, new courage, new
energy. new life. In fact, after a re.
freshing sleep we wake into a new
world, world Of hope and expecta-
ton. This is why we should make II
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.
