DARK DAYS IN ALL LIVES
Can Be Only Temporary, and Cheer
ing Thought Is That the Sun Will
Shine Again.

How cheering it is to see the sun
come out after days of storm and
cloud. All the while the weather is
gloomy you know that the sun will
shine out again in his glory, with
fresh strength and life. 1t is like a
gift newly bestowed on the earth.
So in life there come stormy days
and dark days. Remember that they
will pass just as surely; they cannot
last forever. You are disappointed in
something, and perhaps that particu-
lar wishedfor joy will never come to
you. But it may be that something
else just as good is on the way, some
thing even better, it may be. Sorrow
and disappointment are assuaged with
time, and other things enter into life
that make it good even as the clouds
break up and float away and the softer
light shines through at sunset So
there is always a worse that might
have been.
The dark days are for introspection,
for remembering that few troubles are
as heavy as they seem. Sunny days,
better things, are at hand that will
come with cheer and healing like the
welcome rays of the sun.-Milwaukee

HOW NOISE BREAKS WINDOW
Sound Waves in the Air Have Only to
Be Powerful Enough to Get
Results.

Noise is an irregular wave in the air
which is real thing, and has weight
and power, remember. A wave of air
may break a window exactly as the
wave in the sea will break a break
water, though, as the name tells us,
the breakwater will break the wave,
as long as that wave is not too strong.
If you will think minute you will
see that every time a noise gets
through a shut window it shakes the
window. If the noise is coming in
from the street the air outside is
thrown into waves which pass through
it until they strike the window, and
shake it; then the window shakes the
air inside the room in exactly the
same way as the air outside shook it,
only perhaps not quite so strongly.
And SO the noise reaches you, just as
if you had heard it outside, only not
quite so loud. Well, plainly, the noise
has only to be loud enough-that is to
say, the waves in the air have only to
be big enough-to shake the window
more than it can stand, and then 1t
breaks.

Novel Danish Eel Farm.

A novel Danish development is the
eel farm at Nielsen, on iceland island.
A piece of lowland along the Ise
Fjord has been converted into a pond
of 432 acres, averaging two feet in
depth, and equipment has been pro-
vided for pumping into the naturally
brackish water supply of fresh wa
ter from an adjacent canal, or salt
water from the ford.
Living mostly in fresh water, the
eel has the curious habit of seeking
the deep sea to spawn or attain matur-
ity. The eel larvae, drifting helpless
ly far from land, develop into elvers,
and these seek the fresh waters there
to remain until they in turn reach ma
turity.
For stocking the farm the elvers
are trapped as they arrive in the early
spring. To get ripe, fully grown cells
for the market salt water from the
ford is pumped into special boxes,
and this attracts the matured individ-
uals, whose instincts call to salt wa
ter.
The output of 1913 was about $4,000
pounds.

Little Sister Also Curious.

My brother aged two and one-half,
and sister, four, weie taught to always
nina their own affairs and let other
peoples alone, but when l came home
from a days shopping loaded with
bundles Johnny could not resist asking
what they contained, who they were
for, etc. l being tired from the days
shopping told him two or three things,
but he insisted upon knowing what
all contained, so l considered it my
duty to tell the young man to mind
his own affairs, as he had been taught
to do, and go to play. Johnny went
away grieved. His little sister, lis
tening to all this, remarked: isn't
Johnny awful 'nosy,' sister," l had
no more than said Yes" when she
came over and whispered, What have
you got in the rest?"-Chicago Trib-

VALUE IN EFFICIENCY CHART
What ls Worth Of Work That He
Is Doing.

One way to increase your value Is to
find out exactly where you stand, and
just how much of your possible best
you are attaining.
Businesses are examined carefully,
charts and measurements, averages
and possibilities, all are used and tab
ulated, according to a writer in the
Pittsburgh Dispatch. A business man
Of any real sense wants to know
whether he is getting the best re-
turn for what he is putting into his
business. Sometimes he calls in an
expert to help him find out, sometimes
he works 1t out himself
The same idea applied to yourself
will prove distinctly worth while.
Make out chart, divided into three
portions horizontally, and these again
many sections as required. At the left
write on the margin, for the top strip,
What Is Asked of Me. For the second
horizontal division write What | Do.
For the lowest, write What l Might
Do.
Over the top of the sheet write the
headings for the various subdivisions,
which must differ according to your
job Suppose we put Promptness,
Manners, Quickness, Neatness, Intelli-
gence, Thoroughness, Cheerfulness,
Amount of Work Done, New Ideas, mi
tiStiye, down as suggestions. In the
lowest row write under each heading
what your ideal accomplishment
would be. On top, what you must do
to make good at the job, and to stand
a chance OF rising In the middle what
you actually do, and be strictly honest
with yourself in filling this out
Call it your efficiency chart and
keep it for month. If you do that,
you are pretty sure to go on keeping
it. 1t will help you to find out about
yourself, it will urge you to improve,
and it will interest you to see how you
do improve. l think you will very soon
decide that time spent on such chart
is not wasted.

To Avoid "CoIds.v

"a few points to remember if you
would avoid taking cold: Never go
directly from a very warm atmosphere
into very cold air. Don't jump from
an overheated room into an ice-cold
bed on a sleeping porch. Remove
your wraps when shopping indoors on
a cold day or when visiting. Don't
bundle up the throat, but don't ex-
pose the whole chest. Seventy degrees
should be the highest temperature in
your living rooms or offices. Don't
overexert, then expose yourself to in
lection in a draft or in a hot room
that is probably full of disease germs.
Keep your vitality at par. avoid
people with bad colds, and you will
get through the bad seasons
with not more than a snifie or so."-

Care of BronZes.

Genuine bronzes must never be
washed with soap and water Occa-
sionally they may be washed with
pure beer, but it should be done very
rarely. 1t is sufficient to dust them
regularly with the aid of soft brush
and a soft chamois leather.
Steel things also require daily dust
ing if they are to be kept bright, and
it is essential not to let them become
wet, since dampness is very difficult
to remove. Once a week steel orna-
ments should be polished with fine en-
cry paper and then given a final rub
up with powdered brick dust and a
soft buster or leather. Once in three
weeks a paste made Of emery powder
and parafin oil may be advantageous
ly used in place of the dry emery
powder.

HANGED, BUT NEVER BURNED
POPULAR Idea Of Treatment of New
England witches" Is Altogether
a Delusion.

Paying its respects to the New
England conscience" as a ghost that
will not down, the New York Herald
revives myth that will not down
when it says: cat such wholesome
sport as WITHDRAWING the New Eng
land conscience was never known to
shy"
There were score or so of indi-
viduals hanged in connection with the
Salem witchcraft delusion, but none
was burned. Yet the popular tradi-
ton persists, and no doubt will live
on when even Gallows hill itself is
forgotten. Trevelyan said in sub
stance that though mistake of his
tory may die out, If it has survived
100 years it can never be corrected.
Certainly all the documentary proof
to the contrary has not served to cor
rect this particular myth in more than
two centuries and doubtless it will
be believed while the Sacred Cod
hangs in the state house at Boston.
In no branch of historical research
has there latterly been more PAINS
taking work than in dispelling the in
accuracies of popular history-in
giving new certificates of character to
Neros, undertaking the Fathers of the
from the great. Yet the more the
record is set straight the more the
old myths endure.

Whit of it as the wind blew from it
toward them, but they consistently re-
fused to bite. 1 am certainly OF the
opinion that something OF the kind
should have been enacted, in the inter-
ests of justice and fair play, but the sus-
p1c1ous prejudice of the members against
something which was beyond their
powers of comprehending doomed it.
After all the fermentation and dark
forecastipgs during the first weeks of the
session as to abolishing this, that and
the other, nothing and nobody was
abolished. This, probably, from the
fact that it was not shown that any body
or any office should be abolished. The
investigations threatened in respect to
the control of the newspapers and that
started to look into the purchasing
agents Office ended in smoke, and very
little of that.
The Attorney-General never was in
any danger of being abolished-neither
the office nor the man. The Senate
stood solidly against that, and the action
of the House in passing the bill was
merely an impetus, half-cock flash in
the pan.
The office of Sealer of Weights and
Measures came nearer being abolished,
but that was saved by the sober second
thought, though the commissioner has
to make way for another. Some dust
was kicked up for two or three DAYS
over the Office of factory inspector, but
this SON died away. Therefore, the in
itial abolition Juror all came to nothing.

Proper Use of Perfumes.

Scents and perfumes are adapted to
different individuals and personalities.
The petite blonde woman should use
a different scent from the brunette;
the languid, sensuous beauty should
indulge in perfumes forbidden to the
demure woman, or to one having a
lively temperament. Blue and brown
eyed women should use different
scents. Even the various rooms of
house should be perfumed differently.
The hall, the dining room, the parlor,
the bedroom, all should have their dis
tinctive and individual odors. They
should not be too strong, but should
be typical of the room they specify.
