Two Uses for Myths.

The Greek philosopher Aristotle said that myths were invented by leg islators ito persuade the many and to- be used in support of law" Modern scholars think it more likely that early lawmakers found these myths already prevalent and saw how they could be made an instrument for governing men. Such myths appear to be of two kinds: those which are used to lend weight to authority, and those which have been Invented by the weak and oppressed to coax or frighten the strong into treating them more leniently.

Business Based on Sorvloo.

Modern business is built up largely on guaranties. People don't trade with folks tbey can't trust. That business is getting freer from traps and hooks is due largely to guarantees, some of which assure you of satisfaction or your money back. Others promise long continued service and free repairs while others give a free trial till you make up your mind you want to buy. The idea is to help you get your full moneys worth and to make you feel safe in buying an article on which you are not fully posted, but which you want if 1t suits you.-Farm and Fire eide.

"l Sympathize."

In the evening at Mercy hospital you hear from all over the house the little bedtime voices, and the sound blends into something sweet and dear which hardly forms itself into words. To you who have not heard it, 1t would seem the strangest sort of music, coming from all the wards and rooms and balconies around you-on the lower floor, on the upper, and sounding up and down the stairs wherever you might be. It is just the quiet little chatter of many, many children ready for sleep. and the doctors and nurses have heard it every night for 20 years, and they wonder why it is-' with child love so ready to respond to n call like that of little Helen Keller, the crowded wards at Mercy and yet so little known to those who say-"I Sy1npathlze."

been occupied exclusively for the li- brary, and with all shelf space possi- ble, several hundred volumes are still without space on the shelves. Near ly 6,000 volumes, of all kinds, are now on the library shelves.
 Especially valuable is the reference department of the library which is said to rank second in Arkansas only to the reference department of the Carnegie library at Little Rock, and which is already in very great de- mand by school children and profes- sional men and women of the city The greater number of works in the reference library were purchased by the institution, and were particularly we'll selected, che result being that information from authoritative sources on almost any known sub- ject, can be obtained from one or an other volumes on the shelves, in q few minutes.
