Pride and Wealth.

Wealth built a splendid mansion and

gladly, but found fault with the house
and everything In 1t, from cellar to

To placate Pride, Wealth sold his
house for a fraction Of its value and
built far more costly one. This time
Luxury and not Convenience was con-
suited, and the result pleased Pride so
well that he took up permanent quar-.
tiers in the mansion. He invited in
his comrades, Vanity, Ostentation and
Prodigality. Wealth was the only one
who could not see that the house he
had paid for belonged, not to himself,
but to Pride.

AVOIDING DISEASE.

There is a constant battle between
the forces that are for health and those
that make disease. The forces that
maintain health are capable of develop
ment as are those that bring disease.
Avoiding disease is the first law of
nature if self preservation is the first
law of nature. Ignorance of how to
avoid disease is the deplorable eondi-
tion of host of people. 1t takes spe-
cifc knowledge to avoid disease. 1t is
our duty to learn all we can of the
way of health and to aid as much as
possible in the spread of such eduea-
tion.
Avoiding disease is easier when our
associates are properly informed. 1t
is easier when every person in the COM
munity is properly employed, properly
paid, thoroughly informed and prop
erly housed.
No individual is safe from disease
whose neighbors are exposed to the

Watering Plants Drop by Drop.

Lucien Daniel, French botanist, has
made some experiments with cabbages,
chicory, lettuce, ETC., which prove that
they thrive far better by a system of
continuous watering than by drench-
ing the soil thoroughly every other day.
The new method, which is simplicity
itself, depends upon the law Of capil-
larry attraction. AS presented to the
Academy of Sciences in Paris it con-
sists Of placing near each plant large
mouthed jar containing water, in which
is dipped one end Of a strip Of linen
or cotton whose other end lies near the
plant. Mr.. Daniel determined the ex-
act amount Of water required by any
given plant for its best development
and proved that in general this unin-
terrupted supply Of water, drop by
drop, gave infinitely better results than
the usual method Of intermittent
drenching and with a minimum ex-
penditure Of water.-Literary Digest.

Keeping Young.

When DR.. Anna Howard Shaw was
yked how she kept SO young she re-
pbed that, though it may have been
mining for trains all her life, yet she
4 rather inclined to think that mental
,rdTity and constitutional cheerful
ness" are always responsible for keep
Ing young.
"A woman whose mind is active does
not realize that she is not always at
Exactly the same age" said DR.. Shaw;
therefore she never grows old. 1t is
not the mental activity that keeps her
vung; she is young. My advice to
hose who are growing old is to keep
busy. The really important thing in
LIE to me is to be so absorbed by
reat fundamental principle and to be
Uinspired by a love Of humanity that
pu forget everything else. This is the
huntain of eternal youth"

Embroidery DESIGNS.

Here are suggestions for transfer.
ring the embroidery design before you
to any material:
Perhaps the easiest way is the twin
dowpane" method. This is successful
when the material is thin, like linen,
batiste, etc. Pin the sheet Of paper and
the material together and hold them up
against the glass of window. With a
sharp pencil draw on the material the
design, which can be easily seen
through the goods. If one-half of the
design is given unpin the paper and
turn the other side to the fabric.
If you have carbon paper you should
place the sheet between the fabric and
the newspaper. The latter is on top.
With a sharp pencil go over the out
line Of the design. The impression will
be left in fine lines and will last until
worked.-Exchange.

They Sanq IL AGAIN.

Florence Howe Hall describes in her
book, 'aThe Story Of the Battle Hymn
Of the Republic" scene in 1864 in the
house of representatives at a meeting
Of the Christian commission, at which
President Lincoln was present and an
immense audience filled the hall. Chap
lain McCabe sang the Battle Hymn by
request. Men and women sprang to
their fleet, wept and shouted and join
ed in the song. Lincoln, with the tears
rolling down his cheeks and strange
glory lighting his face, cried out, ''Sing
it again!" and the great multitude, led
by Chaplain McCabe, sang it through

diseases that attack by the method
called contagion. Many diseases find
encouragement where poverty depletes
the vitality. Fighting poverty is equiv
alent to fighting disease.
Overwork is disease producing
force. Insufficient food is another.
Every person should get at least eight
hours of sleep in twenty-four as a gen.
eral rule. Lack of sleep lowers vitality
and gives the advantage to the germs.
Overcrowding of living and sleeping
rooms is decidedly bad for the health.
Many diseases are spread in that way.
Improper ventilation is responsible for
much disease. Keep out of poorly
ventilated theatres, stores and build
ings where there is overcrowding in
stuffy quarters.
To avoid disease keep clean and keep
your habitation clean. Do what you
can to spread the gospel of cleanliness
far and wide. Bad habits are to be
studiously avoided. Avoid infected
and thereby hangs a huge
matter.

Cuts of Meat and CaIorific Value.

The kind or cut Of meat used does
not usually make much difference in
the full or calorific value.
There is popular belief that porter
house steak and other choice cuts of
beef represent the highest forms of
nourishment to be obtained. This is,
however, a misconception. The full
value Of brisket or ribs Of beef, as well
as mutton and lamb, exceeds the much
desired tenderloin steak.
According to Langworthy, expert in
charge of nutrition investigation of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture, 'for all practical, everyday pur-
poses it may be considered that the
protein obtained from a given weight
Of meat differs very little either with
the kind of meat or the cut"

Coming back to it, Mr.. Napier did
deliver one great speech. He is well
educated man, and one of the Fred
Douglass, J. M. Langston type of men.
He has gone into the hearts of all the
American people, and he will never be
forgotten by these young people who
heard his wonderful address. He did
not bite his tongue in talking to them
and telling them what they should do
in or to make it. This is his charge
to them:
"Young friends, if you meet the
expectations of your parents, your
friends, and of this school; if you dis
charge the obligations which your pre-
sence and your stay on these grounds
have placed upon you; when you go
away from this school, when you accept
its certificate of character, its guaran-
tee to the world that you are worthy,
you will go out with this firm resolve
in your mind and heart:
''I am going to be something. If
I must, I am going to begin at the
bottom. I am going to do something
worthy of the opportunities before me;
something commensurate with the adj
vantages which 1 have here enjoyed,
and something worthy of the progress
sive race of which I am proud to be
a member.
eff you have this ambition to start
in this direction, success will certainly
crown your efforts.
"My charge to you is, Build char
acter after the model of the lowly
Nazarine.
"Make friends of the people with
whom you live and by whom you are
surrounded, and, once made, cling to
them as with hooks of steel.
"Let reliability, promptness and
thoroughness characterize your under
taking.
"Be courteous, patient and perse-
vering.
"Let your life be one of honesty,
charity, veraeity, integrity and cheer
fulness.''
I heard all of this and could hardly
keep from shouting. We are living in
wonderful age. I am glad that 1
belong to the age and to the eommun-
ity. God help US all to keep up in
this world of thought.

The presidents Of history show that

declarations of war were made. Ac-
cording to authorities on international
law, condition OF war arises In three

First.-Declaration Of war.
Second.-A proclamation or manifes-

Third-Through the commission Of
hostile acts Of force.
