MAN IS TAKEN AT OWN VALUE
Humility Is Called a Virtue but 1t Ceases to Be One If 1t Is Car
 ried Too Far.

Humility is called virtue. It is so unless carried too far. man is us- ually taken at his own value. If he makes too little of himself, he is like ly to be thought of little worth. The unduly humble man will lack the strength of character needed for sue cess. He will have little influence in society and will not be fitted to hold responsible position.
 While too great opinion of one self stands in the way of progress. too great humility is worse, says the Mil. waukee Journal Conceit receives many knocks in life and may be taken out of man; too much humility sell dom receives the needed encourage ment. Conceit in n child Is soon cor reeted when he comes to mingling with other children in schools. Too great humility gives his schoolmates chance to put upon him and treat him as an inferior-a chance which will seldom be neglected. A child may become crippled in spirit for life in this way. Even teachers sometimes fail to see what is the trouble with the child and to give him the encourage meIt he needs. Beware of breaking down child's Self-eOnfidence. Irrepa- rable injury may thus be done him. Train him to feel that he Is of value and is able to do what there is for him to do. Think well of yourself if you would have others think well of you.

animals. Polyandry several husbands for one wife, is generally practiced, in creasing the horror of her position, for she is required to be the slave to a number of masters who treat her with rigorous harshness and brutality. From the day of her birth to that of her death her life is one protracted pe- riod of degradation. She is called upon to perform the most degrading and menial of services and she is obliged to perform almost the entire manual labor of the community, as it is considered debasing for man to engage in other labor than that of the chase or warfare. The woman has no voice in the selection of her numerous husbands. She is sold like horse or COW to the highest bidder.
 The rites of death and burial are very curious. When chief or other in- fluential member of tribe dies his body is fastened to stake and ex- posed to the attacks of beasts and birds in the belief that all the evil parts of his body will be consumed After that, what remains is cremated and the ashes placed in magic bowls mixed with charms and portions to be used as medicines.
 The most disreputable quarter of Lhasa the capital of Tibet. is occupied by the famous tribe of Ragyabas, or beggar scavengers, the men whose re pulsive occupation is to break up the bodies of the dead. A more brutal ized type of humanity cannot be imag ined, and they live in the foulest of novels. Filthy in appearance, half naked, clothed in obscene rags, these people live in houses unfit to house a hog.
 The veil which has for centuries hid den Tibet from the rest of the world has been lifted, but the spectacle re- vealed has not been particularly sa vory one.

In a kino's Majlbau.

If anyone were privileged to see the British kings daily postbag he would be amazed at the amount of nonsense written to his majesty, says London correspondent. People who have unique information as to the exact date of the end of the world weird creatures who have telepathic communications re- yealing what goes on in the next ex- istence fanatics desiring to convert the sovereign 10 some new religion. or to warn him against imaginary achievements by anarchists, indNiduals who can wipe out the national debt by some preternaturally fallacious calcuia ton others who have grievances they cannot bring to light, beggars for money galore all pour In effusions which fortunately. only reach the kings eye if they are sufficiently di- verting to amuse him. Private secre- taries are invaluable to public men, but none are so deft and able as those attached to his majesty.

BATTLE |S RAGING
 0N RUSSIAN FRONT
GERMANS RUSHING UP TROOPS FROM ITALIAN AND FRENCH
 FRONTS TO CHECK ENEMY.
MAY ATTACK NEAR RIGA
On the Carpathian Front Austrians Are Said To Be "Fleeine in Panic" Stopping Only Where Occasional
 Steep Hills Give Them Rest.

Washington-The whole Russian front, from the Gulf of Riga to Rou- mania, is reported in official dis patches from Petrograd to the Rus sian embassy here to be alive with battle. The Germans are said to be rushing up troops from the Italian and French fronts and to be entirely rearranging their positions.
 On the northern front, near Riga, German re-enforcements are rushing up by sea transport. On the Lem berg front the troops are being shift ed back and forth by means of heavy automobiles in an attempt to prevent further advances by Gen. Korniloff. On the southern front, in the Cafpa- thians, the Austrians are said 10 be in full flight.
 The German re-enforcement of the Riga front by transport is understood here to be for a German counter-of' fensive as a diversion to the severe Russian attack farther south. This has been long threatened, and it is thought now that Gen. von Moedre, in comamnd there. has been given or ders to go ahead.
 Dispatches report that the Rus sian Baltic fleet is capable of meet ing any naval offensive in that quar- ter. The land forts are also reported we'll equipped.
 On the Lemberg front the left flank of the Austro-German army defending that city is stated to be seriously threatened, with the result that the enemy is using automobiles, to rush men to support the weakened wing. Gen. Korniloff, in taking the town of Kalusz, made very serious strateg- ical threat against the whole eppos- ing German forces.
 On the Carpathian front the Aus trians are said to be fleeing in pan- ic' stopping only where occasional steep hills give them rest Gen. Troskansky, in command of the Rus sians there, is said to be vigorously overcoming the rear guards left along the natural barriers.
 Other dispatches tell of new rules of army discipline about to be issued by Minister Kerensky. They will be very brief and will stress the equal responsibility of officers and men.
 Gen. Kutchkoff, the former minis ter of war, who resigned as protest against the interference of the Sol diers' and Workmen's Council in strictly military affairs, is stated 10 have enlisted in the new volunteer di- vision. He is 60 years old and has been one of the most powerful men of Russia.
 The trouble in Finland is reported as reaching settlement.

Concrete for BuiIdInq.

Concrete is good building mate rial or il is not and this will depend upon the materials used and the way they are handled. When properly made concrete is the best known building material but care is needed in the making. Cement blocks are manufactured and offered for sAle in very many communities which are not only practically worthless for per manent construction, but some of them are positively dangerous. The chief reason for this lies in the fact that they are mixed too dry in order to take the molds or they are too poor in cement or both. Such blocks absorb moisture readily and rapidly and soon begin to crumble, Use plenty of good cement and mix very wet and the blocks will be waterproof and lasting as the ages.-Exchange

Knock Their Coal of an Arctic Bluff

The United States has granted pat ent on the farthest north coal mine on the American continent The mine is on the shore of the Arctic ocean at a point called Corwin Bluff, 160 miles north of the arctic circle. The coal veins outcrop over the water from the bluff, so that boats may come under the veins and knock off what they need into their bunkers. The coal was first observed in 1S4S, and subsequent to that time whalers and other boats have been in the habit of dropping in at the point whenever in need of fuel The United States revenue cutters Corwin and Thetis often coal there. The pat ent was issued to Charles McIntach.
