Africa's West Coast.

West Africa seems to exercise kind
of fascination over men who have lived
there for any time.
There is saying, "Once coaster,
always coaster" and out Of the most
terrible Of the stories told to newcom-
ers upon West African boats this
deep-seated love of life Oh, the coast
invariably energies.
Fever-stricken men lc:ve for civil
lied countries swearing mighty oaths
they never will return, but few rest
less months at home and they are back
again, ready enough, no doubt, to
abuse West Africa, but secretly sub
ject to its grim fascination.

JUST REFUSE TO BE ANNOYEos
Begin the Day In Good Humor and Del
tsrmine Not to Complain, and
Note the Result

Start the day rlght--especially when
the weather Is trying upon ones
nerves. Start 1t by being in good hui
mor-by refusing to be annoyed. Don't
get excited about anything there Isl
really nothing exciting early in thd
morning. Make the most Of every1
thing about you-and determine I'M
your own mind that come what mayl
you are going to accept 1t without CONF
plant, and there will be little cause,
for complaint, says the Dayton News,
II we could start the day with a
smile, there would be no trouble for us
through the hours to follow. If we
would refuse to become peeved, noth1
ing would peeve us throughout the day.
There Is more in this thing of getting
started right than the average man
may suppose.
Ever notice good engineer, how he
starts the train? He sits there gazing
up the track. He has oiled the engine
and caressed 1t little and gazed Mt ID
admiringly. He clasps the throttle with
faith In 1t. But he doesn't Jerk 1t, on
pull II recklessly. He presses 1t slightly.
some way, and the muscles in his arms
contract gently, and the steam Kisses a
bit, and the great wheels start to turn
as gently as IL a child were turning
them. They revolve little faster, and
little faster, and the train is under
full speed with never a jolt or Jerk.
Well, that's exactly the way we ought
to start the day. We ought not to ext
pect to get under full speed at the
jump. There should be no jolting no
jerking. The wheels ought to move.
slowly, gently, at the start, and we
ought to work ourselves to full press
sure as gradually as the engineer gets
his train underway. Then Wen find q
smooth track and plenty Of power and
Wen be able to bring the train into
the shed at night with never an injury

took their association seriously, If he

On March %, 1919, the indications
were that Kotzebue would spend his
declining years In peace and comfort
under his vine and figtree at Mann
helm. He was prosperous, and had
congenial employment. and his genius
was being generally recognized. On
the afternoon of that day he went into
the town on an errand, and when he
returned to his home maid told him
that a young man had called to see
him, and promised to call again. Half
an hour later the young man returned,
and the maid showed him up to the
family sitting room. He waited there
a few minutes, and then Kotzebue en-
tered the room, with outstretched hand
and smiling face.

Spain After Our Tourists.

Spain Is making an organized effort
to divert American travel to that coun-
try. This sign Of enterprise In what
Lord Salisbury once called one of the
dying nations" of the earth Is credit
able. Unquestionably American tour
lists could include Spain In their timer
airy with much greater pleasure and
profit than divers other European
countries that make small return for
the annoyances Of travel and the ra-
pacious charges of inn-keepers and
other thoroughly commercialized gem

But 1t may be that Spain has begun
little too late. Arrangements have
been made to divert large part OF
pur American tourist trade TO America
itself.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
