ORIENTAL JUSTICE.

A young man going on a journey
intrusted hundred dollars to an old
man. When he came back the old
man denied having had any money de-
posted with him, and he was had
up before the cadi Where were you,
young man, when you delivered this
money!" Under tree. Take my seal
and summon that tree said the
judge. Go, young man, and tell the
tree to come hither, and the tree will
obey you when you show it my seal. .
The young man went in wonder. After
he had been gone some time the cadi
said to the old man: 'He is long. Do
you think he has got there yet?'
NO." said the old man; 1T is at some
distance. He has not got there yet"
How knowest thou, old man." cried
the cadi, where that tree is?" The
young man returned and said the tree
would not come. HE has been here,
young man, and given his evidence.
The money is thine"

THE INsTALLMENT PLAN.

Charge it," and "A dollar down
a dollar a week. are the two rocks
on which we meet disaster, asserts a
writer in The Forum. AS an instance
of the subtle ways in which credit is
thrust upon the unwary, this writer
says:
THE woman who opens the door of
a store just to inquire the price of the
handsome piano in the window, and is
met by an eagle-eyed salesman who
turns on canned lecture if she is too
polite to back out, has often written
the first letter of her name on con-
tract for few dollars down that she
regrets before the ink is dry.
"One of the ablest economists in
the country told me that insidious adj
vertising has caused much of the
present day extravaganza. The pull
ing power of an advertisement may be
the index of it's value, but some of
them pull so hard they distort the
Judgment of the reader till the thirty
cents in his pocket looks like thirty
dollars in his mind, and he jumps joy
fully on to the installment escalator
only to land in the gloom of debt with
everything mortgaged but the kitchen
stove"

THE MEANEsT MAN.

Does this mean you? Read the fol-
lowing which we pass along to whom
it may concern: A man may use the
mole on the back of his neck for a
collar button; he may ride a freight
to save two or three cents a mile; he
may stop his watch at night to save
wear; he may use period for a semi
colon to save ink; he may pasture his
grandmother's grave to save hay; but
a man of this kind is a scholar and a
gentleman compared with man who
win take newspaper or monthly
magazine, v. 6. The Messenger, and
when asked to pay for it put it back
in the postoffice marked Refused. -!

RLUSHING.

Some people are rather annoyed at
the thought of having blushed. They
need be so no longer. They should
rather be pleased, for an eminent
specialist has just declared that it re-
quires brains to blush, that the abil-
ity to blush is in direct ratio to mental
alertness, and that blushing is an
achievement of which everyone should
be proud, for it is positive sign of
an active brain.
1t is pointed out that idiots cannot
blush, and neither can animals. SINH
1arly infants do not blush, although
they learn to do so at an early age,
just as soon, in fact, as the brain be-
gins to exercise its higher functions.
Moreover, the blush cannot be caused
by any physical neanssit is the mind
which must be affected. We may bring
the flush of anger to child by a
blow, or the flush of joy to an idiot
by the sight of food; but the true
blush, that of shyness, modesty or
shame, is purely emotional and has
its origin in the brain alone.
Besides, the further we descend in
the scale of civilization the fewer peo-
pie we. find who have the faculty of
blushing. 1t seems to be the great
hallmark of culture, and its peculiarly
high development in women should
go far to disprove the theory so often
held that they are inferior to men in
intellectual powers

Spelling OLD FRIENDSHIPS.

So far as men are concerned, the
warmest friendship is that which ex-
lists between two fellows whose wives
have never met. A friend that we
have known and liked for years has
drifted away from us, and we sup
pose he feels that we have drifted
away from him. We liked each other
so well that we wanted our wives to
meet and be good friends. Finally
they met, and, as might have been
expected, they cared nothing in the
world for each other. In fact, one of
them said she couldn't see what on
earth anybody could find in her to adj
mire, and we suppose the other said
about the same thing. We felt that
our friend knew what our wife
thought of his wife, and we we're a
little ashamed to be in his company
Probably he felt the same. At any
rate, we haven't had much of anything
to do with each other since. We
speak, but no one would ever guess
that we once were bosom friends.

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
A RULE IN SPELLING.

When ''ei'' and lie" both spell ''e''
How can we tell which it shall be?
Here is a rule you may believe
That never, never will deceive
And all such troubles will relieve,
A simpler rule you can't conceive,
1t is not made of many pieces,
Yet with it all the trouble ceases
To puzzle daughters, SONS and nieces
After &c" an sc" apply;
After other letters 81
Thus a general in siege,
Writes a letter to his liege,
Or an army holds its field,
And will never deign to yield,
While a warrior holds shield,
Or has strength his arm to WELD;
Two exceptions we must note,
Which all scholars learn by rote,
Leisure is the first of these;
For the second we have seize.

INDIA's FAMINEs.

Famines in India are growing in
number and in intensity. After
careful study of the problem, Sir Will
liam Digby says in his Prosperous
British India" that there were in India
two famines in the eleventh century,
one famine in the thirteenth, three in
the fourteenth, three in the sixteenth.
three in the seventeenth, four in the
eighteenth up to 1745. And under
British rule seven famines from 1869
to 1900. And in the nineteenth cen
fury thirty-two famines. In the first
quarter of the nineteenth century
there were five famines with 1,000,-
600 deaths; in the second quarter,
three famines, with 100000 deaths; in
the third quarter, six famines, with
100000 deaths; and in the fourth
quarter, eighteen famines, with &c.
100000 deaths.

CHILDREN IN ALASKA.

The Alaskan Indian mother makes
a birch-bark basket, something like a
chair, with string of beads on the
back which she jingles when baby
cries, to attract its attention. Then
she goes to the woods and finds a
squirrels nest. She takes it home,
and after putting some fresh moss in
the basket she uses all the soft ma
terial like down that Mrs. Squirrel
has SO carefully prepared for baby
squirrel and tucks that in next. Over
this she puts more moss, then bits Of
flannel into which baby is carefully
seated. A blanket is pinned about its
little body to keep it from falling out
and the tiny tot is ready to receive
visitors in a sitting posture.
The Alaskan father makes bows and
arrows for his child to play with and
to use in bringing down birds and
rabbits until he is old enough to use
rifle. The boys are not SO fond of
shooting at a mark, but they like to
see how far they can send the arrow
into the air. Another sport is to see
how far they can climb into the tall
est tree they can find, tying hand
kerchief to the twig to mark the spot.
If a squirrel should happen to be
lodged in the tree he knows no rest
until he is secured by the youth who
| is climbing. surrounded by dozen
or more boys who cheer him on until
THE little animal is pocketed.

Shoemaking in New England early
received impetus from the arrival of
one Philip Kirkland. a Welshman, who
came to Lynn, Mass, in 1886. He was
an experienced shoemaker and taught
his art to many of the colonists in his
vicinity.
Shoemaking in this locality was
further advanced by the arrival of
John Adams Dagyr, who settled in
Lynn in the year 1850. Dagyr was a
celebrated shoemaker and was en-
aDled, from his own means, to secure
the best examples of his work from
abroad. He possessed the peculiar
quality of being able to teach the art
to those who came under his charge
The fame of New England made
shoes was due largely to the teachings
of these men, and the industry has
continued to be one of the first in
Importance. In Massachusetts alone,
according to the census of 1910, over
40 per cent of the entire value of
shoes in the United States was pro-
duced.

EDUCATION FOR GIRLS.

Ballet girls in Russia, says a Petro-
grad dispatch, hereafter will be per-
mitted to enter learned professions.
A special commission has pronounced
for abolition of the system, long
standing, under which ballet pupil
could never be anything but ballet
dancer.
At the age of many girls entered
the ballet school of the Marlinsky
theater and spent their childhood
learning to dance, receiving scarcely
any general education, and were or
dered to go on the ballet stage. If
they refused they were excluded from
all except the lowest occupations.
In the future girls who have passed
through the ballet school will be
qualified to matriculate in a woman's
university and become doctors, law
yers, engineers and technicals.

THE SONG OF THE FOREIGN
BORN.

We came, and you babe us welcome,
You gave of your golden store,
When oppressed in the lands of our
fathers
We thronged through your wide
flung door.
The Celt from the Isle of Sorrow,
The Teuton and Frank as one
We followed the CLEAN of hopeful
dream
To the Land of the Setting Sun.
They lie, who would brand us I'M
grateful,
And false to a nations trust,
That stopped like loving mother
And lifted us out of the dust
Please God, you will never need it
But if cause there should ever be,
Our blades like fame will defend your
name
And our cherished Liberty.
We will gather like clouds of the
tempest
AZ IuO III CdC VI d 1udIlcu HduU,
And the tread of our marching mil
lions
Shall thunder across the land.
The flash of our righteous lightning
Shall illuminate the world,
Where flying free our foes will see
The Stars and Stripes unfurled.

ARE YOU sENslrlvE2

Are you one of those people who
are always going around with a "chip
on your shoulder"
If so, you are due for a pretty sore
spot under the chip.
This would be small world, in
deed, if every one were looking only
for the week spots-to hurt them.
You know target is always an in
vitatiOn to shoot.
If it becomes known that you carry
that chip, don't blame anyone with
sporting blood for giving it a jab now
and then, just to see how far they
can knock it.
Think how much time is lost picking
it up and adjusting it to suit your
sensitive ideas of how you should be
approached.
If you are over-sensitive and looking
for something to hurt you, or are
looking for someone to coax you to
put your chip back, get out of it.
If the other fellow is really trying
to show you disrespect or lack of
courtesy, you are giving him an awful
lot of satisfaction to see how we'll his
plans have carried.
Burn up the chip, and be toe big
and too broad even to imagine a
slight.
