New York's Mental Detectives.

There are 10000 mental detectives
in New York state and it will take
$12, 100000 adequately to provide for
them, says the state board of charities
in its fiftieth annual report. But 6,749
of these detectives are in asylums or
other institutions and of this number
the state has accommodations for 5000
but more than 1000 more are crowded
into the shelter Of the wards.
The board says it is getting appeals
every day from orphan asylums, school
authorities, poor law officials and
courts begging for proper places in
which to keep feeble-minded children
who need custodial care.
The sum of 100000 is asked for
the completion of the Letchworth vii
lage colony, near New York city, to
increase the capacity from 300 in
mates to 5000 inmates.
The annual appropriation of $780,
600 is urged until the state has built
up it's asylum capacity. The board in
nine months of the last fiscal year re-
ceived $2,530,333 for state institutions
with 1882 inmates, and expended ST.
493, 141, Of which $742,349 was for
buildings and improvements. The pri-
vate institutions under public super
vision, with 1928 inmates, got from
public sources $693,362, from private
sources $4S4,90S and spent $1,133,654.

| WHERE HE LOST INTEREST
Working Man Couldn't See Where
There Were Any Bones to Be Left
From His Sunday Joint.

For half an hour the working-class
audience had listened patiently to the
talented lady who was speaking to
them about economical and nourishing
cookery. She had talked about egg
less buildings and BUTTERFLIES cakes,
and now said, with q smile:
81 will now tell you about a splendid
soup which can be made for next to
nothing. Take the bones left over
from your Sunday joint"
At that man in the middle of the
hall rose to his feet with disguised
look on his face, and said to his mate !:
"'Ere, Bill, let's get out O. this"
whats wrong?" asked the other, in
surprise. Don't you like soup"
AYE, l like soup well enough" was
the grumbler's reply; "but how many
bones does she think there are In a
half a pound O. liver?"-London Tit

Reproof Not Effective.

The new maid would not rise early
enough. Gentle reproof seemed vain
and finally the master and mistress
tried the inferential method of blame
and left the damsel asleep whilst
they prepared the breakfast for them
selves.
"We1l shame her to It," said the
master.
Not a word was said until nine
o'clock the same evening, when the
girl tapped at the door of the sitting
room.
rs there anything else I can do,
NUM-" she respectfully inquired.
There was nothing and she turned to
go to bed, but at the door remembered
something.

Ants are frequently noted on roses
and on other ornamental and garden
plants, and it is naturally supposed
that they are doing harm to these. AS
a matter of fact, it is not the plants
that attract the ants, but plant lice.
These tiny creatures excrete a sweet
liquid of which ants are very fond
and which they collect without injur-
ing the plant lice. For this reason
plant lice are frequently termed "ant
cows" The analogy is emphasized by
the fact that ants have been known to
take plant lice into their nests, shell
ter them through the winter and re-
turn them to suitable plants in the
spring, very much as men are accus-
toned to feed and shelter cows
throughout the winter, putting them on
pasture with the coming of the spring.

CUPID IN HOSPITAL WARDS
Nurses at the Front Have Their
Romances Much as DO Their
Sisters In Civil Life.

"There came to my notice while WIS.,
iting the hospitals on the French front
an incident that illustrates the spirit
of the troops" remarked DR.. 81. ].
Bryan, an American physician, who
spent several months at the front.
"Too much praise cannot be given the
young women who have gone from the
United States and Canada to do their
bit and, you may believe me, the Brit
ish and French soldiers are grateful.
"A Canadian nurse, a beautiful girl,
was in charge of one of the wards at
Estaples. 1t was Christmas time, and
the young woman had worked I'M
ceasingly to make the room as attrac-
tive as possible that the poor fellows
lying on their cots might have a bit
of the Christmas spirit. All the time
she was attending to her duties as
nurse. She had put the last touch on
the Christmas decorations, had seen
that her convalescents were comfort
able, and in the early morning, weary
from hours of constant vigil, she con-
fided to one Of her boys that she was
very tired and would rest.
Gan hour later the nurse returned,
and to her surprise she found one
legged hero hopping around the room
making up the beds. He had just
finished the last one when the nurse
entered. Her duty, of course, was to
scold, but the pathetic face of the
wounded soldier, turned upon her with
a look of supreme satisfaction, melted
the words on her lips, and, woman
like, she burst into tears. This young
woman afterward married a Scotch
officer whom she had nursed, and the
happy pair are living in Dorset, in
England"

Got a Line on Them.

Two English laborers who were on
the road to Birmingham to get work
happened to meet an old Irishman
breaking stones on the roadside. They
inquired of Pat how long it would
take to get there. Pat simply looked
at them and made no reply. Thinking
he was deaf they walked on. When
they had gone about 300 yards he
called after them, so they came back.
"Ye asked me how long 1t would
take to go to Birmingham"
"Yes," they said.
"Well," said Pat, at will take We
four hours"
"why didn't you tell US that be-
fore?" they asked.
swell, now" said Pat, "how could
tell We until saw how fast We could
walk first?"

Thouahts Mold Character.

Learn to think carlessly and deeds
in kind will soon follow. Remember
what you think enters into the molding
of your charcter. Men who permit the
mind to dwell on the sensuous soon
find themselves on the way to ruin.
Men with high ideals and determina-
.tfons move steadily upward. Somehow
the world just makes way for them.
In this busy old world you just muss
keep going. What the mind dwells on
most will determine the direction and
speed at which you go. You must
think in terms of vision. See the great
and aim to realize it. Even if the thing
is beyond your present reach, the fact
that you try fits you for the good you
are bound to come to later if you keep
trying. You must think well of YOUR
self also. That's part of the program.
Unless you can respect yourself as a
workman you will have trouble COM
handing the respect of others. Be
particular about your thinking.-Ex-
change.

Perhaps the hardest thing to learn Is
to clear the enemy's trenches after a
foothold has been gained in a portion
of 1t. This is where the hand-to-hand
lighting comes in and it is the work Of
the grenadiers, seconded by the gren-
ade bearers. They must advance from
embrasure to embrasure ten yards
ahead of them into the next section Of
trench and drive the enemy back along
the trench or down into the dugouts.
AS they move forward, they must clear
the dugouts, throwing grenades down
the steep stairs, often twenty to thirty
yards underground, then descending
into the pitchy blackness to send their
grenades searching into every corner
Of the dugout, not to leave an effective
enemy behind them,
