Wise and Otherwise.

Old men always know more than
they pretend to. .
No, Cordelia, policemen aren't al
ways hunting trouble.
Women sometimes feel unworthy Of
their husbands-in books.
Here's an epitaph for the bartender:
"He had smile for everybody"
A wise man knows more than he
tells, but d fool tells more than he
knows.
A woman always jollies man along
just before she makes big fool Of
him.
And when you reach your bottom
dollar you still have the foundation Of
fortune.
One never knows just how old
woman is until one happens to read
the figure on her tombstone.
There are men who would not kick
an enemy when he was down-prefer-
ring to jump on him with both feet.

Black Children of Northern
Queensland Had Their Tops
Before White Man Knew Toy

II appears that the black children
of northern Queensland are as much
pleased by their games as white
Youngsters. One praiseworthy aspect
Of their sport, as set forth by a dis
tinguished American traveller, Ii that
they play their game for the sake OF
the game, not to gain the applause OF
en- idle crowd or in expectation of re-
ward.
In order to attain dexterity. the fish
spear, in the first instance. Is q mere
toy. A colored boy, In all the Joyous
abandon of nakedness, sports with a
spear suitable to his height and
strength for a month together, float
ing, chips and scraps of bark In the
water as targets until hands and eyes
IRE both under absolute control. In
the meantime he has also practiced
on small fish, and soon he Is regular
contributor to the family larder:
The kirra-kul tree provides the
means of satisfying that desire for n
noise that Is instructive In the boy,
whatever his race or color. Young,
lrsty shoots several feet long and full
Of sap are placed in the fire for q
few minutes. When they are Dashed"

The gloom will lift that hauns your heart.
We have dreams; the dreams depart,

But he lives best who plucks and shares
From life's blest service hope to make
The world seem best for dear loves sake
The world, with all II does that's blind,
Still treats well; should not lose
Our faith and trust get the blues
The tempest q little while.
And then the sunbeams sweetly smile.
They'll all blow by; those clouds that gray
The ambient beauty OF your day.
The shadows fall, but not for long;
Behind them turks the sunlit song
The bloom the cheer the love God gives
Through which the whole creation lives.
