Can You Go stralahtf

The above question Is not intended
to be personal We are quite sure that
you are a good, steady going citizen:
but all the same. we are equally sure
that you cannot walk straight without
the help of your eyes. Naturally your
tendency is to walk In a circle. and
you would do this II your eyes were
pot constantly correcting the tendency.
You may easily test this. Place two
stakes In your garden about eight feet
apart. take up a position some sixty
feet away. get some one to blindfold
you and then try to walk between the
two stakes You will find that You
are going In a circle
Why? The explanation is very Sim
ole. You walk faster with one foot
than with the other. Everybody does
One leg always takes a longer stride.
with the result that you naturally
walk more to one side than the other.

tralian bush have marked the trees

uninua Rihla Character.

One of the few men In the Bible
who have nothing recorded against
them is Joseph Of Arimathea- Every
one of the evangelists has a good word
to say for Joseph. One says he was
an honorable counselor" another that
he was a just man." another that he
was "a rich man." another that he was
secret disciple" Only one Of the
evangelists speaks Of the birth of
Christ. but all four of them erect a
monument to Joseph of Arimathea
When he became a disciple we are not
told. DR.. Andrew Bonar Of Scotland
says he can just imagine that Nico-
demus may have been moved by Jo-
seph of Arimathea to believe in Christ
At all events. Nicodemus didn't come
out very boldly himself. He didn't get
his discipleship out very clear. They
were both members of the sanhedrin,
but it is evident that none knew that
Joseph was secret disciple until a
certain night.-Christian Herald.

"curina" Married Couples.

II every wife who is trying to cure
her husband and every husband who
is trying to cure his wife would stop
the operation and all the husbands
would devote their energies to curing
themselves and all the wives devote
their energies to curing themselves the
homes would be a great deal happier
than they are today. There are scold-
ing wives who are bending all Of their
energies to the task of curing their
husbands Of habits far less detrimental
to the happiness of the home than the
habit of scolding. There are husbands
who have set themselves the task Of
curing their wives Of imperfections Of
so much less consequence than the In

sessed by the husband himself.-Edin-

W. B. Alexander of the Western Aus

A Youthful spseulator.

Senator John Sherman made his first
speculation when he was a boy of six
teen. and 1t turned out badly. At the
age of fourteen he was working for the
Muskingum Improvement company at
$25 a month and at the age Of sixteen
was superintendent of an important
part Of the work and had been ad-
vanced to $40 During the winter he
was idle, as the canal was closed. 1t
was at this time that he attempted his
speculation. Salt was very low on the
Muskingum river and very high at Gin
cinnatL So John bought lot Of salt,
loaded 1t on scow and started 1t down
the river. All went well until within
one days float of the Ohio river. when
the thermometer went down to zero,
and the scow remained right there for
two long months. Everybody had a
great laugh over the youthful specula-
tor. but he lived long enough to return
the laugh with interest - St Louis
