Washington at Night.

Night life comes on swiftly when II
gets really started. Night In Washing
ton is beautiful girl drawing black
velvet, jewel bespangled cloak over
white shoulders. The streets are light
ed with duh bronze, rather low lamps;
artistically perfect lamps that hold duh
white, glowing globes. The lamps are
very close together. They are the
pearls that the girl winds about her
throat and in her dusky hair.
The White House stands out, glim-
mering boldly against the black Of the
foliage, its lighted windows dimmed
with tightly drawn curtains. What Of
national portent may not have hap
pened behind those same curtained
windows! Perhaps fear has grappled
with bravery behind the shelter Of the
friendly walls; perhaps hatred and love
have clashed. Perhaps towards have
become strong, and surely strong men
have wept- Characters and homes and
nations have been nodded behind those
friendly blinds.-Margaret d. Sang
ster. Jr.. In Christian Herald.

To Break Iarue Bottles.

The method of breaking small bot.
ties without splintering the glass by
burning an oil-soaked string tied
about them, Ii well known, but this
method does not work well with large
bottles. Following is method by
which any sized glass vessel can be
broken-as, for example, glass tub
to be made out of a carboy:
Fill the. vessel with cold water up
to the point at which it is to be
broken. Pour enough boiling oil over
the water to make good coat on the
surface, and, before the oil has time
to cool, cash cold water on the outside
of the vessel. A clean break at the
contact point Of oil and water will be
the result

People Are Pretty Good People

People are pretty good people.
Taking them all in all,
You can find good spot in the worst
of the lot,
(Often it's very small).
But most of 'em go on trying,
Doing the oest they can,
l haven't rap for that Woodworking
chap,
The average human man.
People are pretty good people.
Trying hard to be kind,
And The wrong they do-except few
Is just bee 4use they're blind,
Blind and bothered and busy,
Harried by toll and strife,
For work and fret is the game they
All of the years of life.
They do good deeds in silence,
Hiding their love away,
And few are told of the hearts of gold
Throbbing in mortal clay,
The hearts that always answer,
Hearing the rightful call
People are pretty good people,
Taking them all in all

HERO WORSHIP TOO COMMON
Remarkable Hold on Majority
of Mankind.

Americans, like most other people,
are disposed to do moderate amount
Of hero worshiping. One phase of it,
says the Kansas City Star, is the re.
spectful hearing given on all subjects
to a man who has made a success in
some one line. II man is highly sue
lcessful in manufacturing tooth
brushes we assume that he knows all
about art and science.
There is Smith," we say. HE is
q phenomenal maker Of socks. He
can turn them out at the rate of TO-.
900 pairs minute. He is getting rich
by his ability to make socks SO rap.
idly without dropping stitches in
them. Besides, it is said the socks
really wear well. That being the case,
what do you suppose he thinks about
the ethics of that Chicago baby case.
Let US get his opinion as to the de-
STABILITY of encouraging the modern
schools of art. We surely must ask
him what to do about typhoid vacci-
nation. When does he think the war
will end?"
OF course, Smith may never have
given any attention to these subjects.
He may have been 30 busy perfecting
the machine for speeding up without
dropping stitches that he may have
no ideas whatever on the European
war or the immortality Of the soul or
the higher criticism of the Bible or
the advisability Of masticating ones
food thoroughly, or the relative ad-
vantages Of Corot and Troyon as paint.
ers.
Still, we write him letters and ask
him his views. Unless he is very
remarkable man he takes the ques.
lions seriously, Ii immensely flattered
by them. and by and by comes to
think that having been successful in
making socks he must be equally sue.
cessful in every other line of human
endeavor.
OF course. II he falls for this sort
of thing. in time he is bound to make
some perfectly fool statement. When
he does this, we are all az likely as
not to turn and rend him for being
an ass, when the original trouble was
with those Of us who insisted on his
qualifying - an expert on subjects
that he knew nothing about.

Glenwood defeated Carbondale in q
one-sided game last Sunday IS to l..
Wilson was wild, was hit freely and re-
ceived miserable support. Weidenham-
mer, on the other hand was effective
and allowed but three scrawney hits.
His support was splendid. The Carbon
dale team put up the worst exhibition
of base ball game ever seen in Glen
wood. They juggled the ball to an
extent of thirteen errors of which four
were made by their first baseman, v.
Moore. The feature of the game was
the one handed catch of Gregory in the
eighth, Carbondale's lone run came in
the eighth when Sumnick strolled, took
second when Weidenhammer walked
Guss, and scored on Moore's long fly to
center. Glenwood put eight across in
the initial round, four in the fourth
and enough during the rest of tho
game to total eighteen which ties the
record score on Glenwood grounds.
Next Sunday when we go to Carbon
dale let US hope for better game. The
hits, put-outs, assists and errors were

Three dynamite charges have been ex-

CONFIDENCE

Why does this country tend always
to belittle its wealth, its work, its
men and its power to meet calamity
1t does, and yet we are thought to be
people unembarrassed by modesty.
Yankee boastfulness is proverb in
the world, but no Yankee ever told
quite all the truth. He never dared,
and, besides, he could not make him
self believe the whole length and depth
and breadth of it. Distrusting their
own judgment, the American people
lack confidence in their great estate
Their temperament is rich in daring,
faith and optimism, but poor in conf
dence, which is q quality that comes
with time. A young people perhaps
should not have it. 1t is not good to
have everything.-New York Times.

through Denver this morning en- route
to the Denver mountain parks. 1t was

park few days ago as gift of the

The buffalo is q magnificent speci-

which prevented its moving from one
position, and on the outside was posted
q notice, signed by the secretary of
the interior department, which read:
"Beware! This is tame buffalo bull
and very dangerous animali''
The buffalo has been known as the

first saw it in the Yellowstone park on
