 Early Day Buttons.
 The ancients lacked buttons one wonders, indeed. how they got along without them--but evidently they pos sessed studs of modern pattern, such as those with which we fasten our cuffs and collars. And, in truth. they did even have kind of button (thougb not sewn on), which fastened garments with a pin and hook exactly in the way our brooches and clasp pins oper ate.-Exchnugn

Genius and Rules.

Genius may be law unto itself and
may violate the conditions felt to be
binding upon mere talent or mediocrity,
but for all that genius is not genius
because 1t occasionally breaks rules,
and no writer can serve as q model
for the young who does not conform
to certain principles. The object Of
the linguistic branch of education is
to fit each pupil with the ability to
make himself clearly understood, and
this can best be done by teaching him
to observe such rules as will tend to
make his speech similar to that of his
bearers. If after acquiring so much
he finds that he is literary genius, I've
may go forward and devise new forms
for himself all well and good, but gen.
eral education is for average people,
and the only safeguard against dialects
or a confusion of tongues is the teach
ings of such common principles as will
apply throughout the country. #.

Fish as Brain Food.

"Fish is u brain food" Here is an
assertion that we hear repeatedly,
given forth with great solemnity.
There is, however, no foundation
whatever for the belief that fish con-
tains any particular elements that
adapt them especially as food for the
brain or which support mental efforts.
The value of fish as food to persons
engaged in mental labor is found In
the fact that fish do not contain large
quantities Of those materials that de-
mand much physical exercise or exer-
ton for their complete consumption.
AS the brainworker is seldom physl-
cally active, the value of fish as food
for him is due to what is not con-
tanned in the fish.

Do Not Eat When Tired.

The average person does not take
enough rest. He works all day, eats
his midday meal in a hurry In between
pressing Office appointments, comes
home late and seldom rests before sit
ting down to dinner. In state of
complete physical and mental exhaus-
ton dinner is lten and as a conse-
quence of this fatigue the digestive or
gans are unable to do their work
properly. If the sufferer from indiges-
ton could arrange to rest half an hour
or even fifteen minutes before each
meal, with the same amount of time
allotted to rest afterward, his stomach
would soon digest the food put into 1t
and his. trouble would be at an end

ALWAYS WANT LITTLE MORE
This Human Tendency Makes Possible
One Woman's Odd but Useful
Trade With Auto Owners.

In the American Magazine we rend
of a woman who has made comfort
able living through supplying pussen-
gers 10 automobiles and vice versa.
The writer visited her to learn her
method and she was preparing TO tell
of her experience when the telephone
rang. "'Iou wish to go to Concord
Saturday afternoonT / heard my
hostess inquire and then, after look
ing into a record book which lay on
the desk near the telephone, she add
ed, Yes, can accommodate you. A
car will call at your home Saturday
afternoon at two o'clock. You
say you are coming back Thursday
There is one seat left in car which
is coming in at A 80 In the afternoon.
VIII that be satisfactory? All right.
Yes, will send my statement
to your husband. Good-by.'
"JuSt then an automobile drove up
and a gentleman entered. 4 am taking
my family up to our camp at Bruins
wick for the SUMNER he said. My
car will make the trip twice a day
from now until the first Of September.
You can list 1t to leave here at ten
o'clock in the morning and five in the
afternoon; coming down IL will leave
Brunswick at seven in the morning
and two In the afternoon. 1t will
come by Concord
when 1 mentioned the question Of
price, the agent said, The prices are
based on the mileage on each dollar
which passes through my hands. I
pay the car owner certain price per
mile for each passenger carried, and
then 1 charge the passenger this sum
plus my commission. This does away
with any dealing between the car own
er and the people he carries. ..-.....
"'At first / was afraid my idea
would not work, for could hardly be-
lieve that a man who could own an
automobile would be interested In saw
ing so small sum as a dollar or two |;
but have found few who would not
put themselves out bit to save little
money-no doubt that is why they are
able to own an automobile"

Not So Funny After All.

Canon Anger was very found of chill
dren and set out one night to attend
a party given ''by children for chill
dren."
"Don't announce me-" he said to the
servant.
Leaving his coat and hat downstairs
he quietly opened the drawing room
door, where the buzz of voices an
nounced the presence of company.
Dropping on his hands ond knees he
entered, making strange noises dis
tinctly resembling the neighing Of
horse. Aware of a dead silence, he
looked up, and found the guests as
sembled for an eight o'clock dinner
regarding him with disgust, not un-
mixed with alarm.
The children's party was next door.
