Several Of the men had gone in with
the husband ION a quiet little dear
that looked so good. Some had even
gone 80 far as to entrust him with
money to buy bonds which never were
delivered.
But that Is not all. The woman had
borrowed considerable sum Of money
from several of the ladies' on the state

had gone Off on trip and had forgot

CAME FROM DAMAGED STOCK
Idea Of 6lotting Paper Was the Direct
Result of Act of Careless
Workman.

Blotting paper, like many another
7aluable discovery, was found entirely
by accident. One day in paper mill
in Berkshire, England, a careless work
man forgot to put in the sizing and it
was necessary to throw out the entire
lot as spoiled. Later the angry pro-
prietor sat down to write note and
possibly for reasons of economy used a
sheet of the condemned paper. To his
increased annoyance the ink spread all
over the paper and he was about to
give up in disgust when the thought
struck him that it might be possible to
use the paper for absorbing ink. in
place of the sand then universally used.
After some successful experimenting
he was able to dispose of his entire
damaged stock under the name of blot
ting paper.
From that time on plotting paper
came into general use. At first it was
always pink in color, red rags being
used. Red was fast color and diff
cult to bleach, hence the red rags were
useless in manufacturing writing pa
paper. But as the color of blotting pa
per did not interfere with it's useful
ness, red or pink was as good a color
as any other, and thus provided
means Of utilizing otherwise wasted
material.

It would appear that Alexander Sell

island was trivial, either in the hard
ships endured or the difficulties over
come, compared with that of woman
on an island opposite the Californian
peninsula.
1t seems that the Catholic fathers
at Santa Barbara were once transport
ing the natives of the island Of St.
Nicholas to the mainland. Among
them was a mother who discovered
that her babe had been left behind.
She begged that the vessel might be
put back. but the captain refused.
She then leaped into the sea 10 swim
ashore, but as storm prevailed, all
on board thought she was drowned.
Eighteen years afterward company
landed on the island. They found
traces of life, and after long search
discovered the woman and took her
with them. The poor woman never
found her babe, but had managed to
live in comparative comfort, though
very lonely. After her long life in the
open, she could not endure the confine.

When Dog Sought His Master.

There is story in the American.
Magazine in which a writer says:
"He had come many miles. He had
many miles yet to go. From sleeping
farmhouses dogs bayed him as he
passed, running like big fox, silent
and swift. The road turned and twist
ed among the hills and small noun
tains. Ahead in the sky was a glow
of coming day. It grew brighter with
the passing miles. It drew him on
The distance would have meant little

speed at which he had been travelling
Now his chest was f1ecked with foam
His tail, carried usually so proudly
followed the curve of his launches
His overstrained muscles worked me-
chanically like pistons. His heart
pounded his long, lean, red ribs.

at last to the top Of hill, and stop
ped, ears erect. Below him stretched
rows Of twinkling lights that, all to.

ONLY HUMAN BEINGS CRUEL
Proud Man the Sole Living Creature
Capable of Deliberately InfIicting
Suffering on Others.

A cruel person is one who exults in
the pain, mental or bodily, suffered by
another. Cruelty has it's basis in anger
(and thus is related to the combative
instinct), though there is cold-blood-
ed form of cruelty which may be" en-
joyed without any obtrpsive feeling of
anger, Henry Campbell writes in the
Lancet, London.
Cruelty, implying as it does self
consciousness-th ability to realize
the feelings of others-is essentially
human attribute. Children who i'm
pale frogs and eviscerate flies cannot
be said to be cruel, for they know not
what they do. Nor are the lower ami
mails cruel, seeing that they are wholly
unconscious of the sufferings of 9TH
ers. Thus the charge Of cruelty against
the carnivora is unjust. These animals
generally destroy their victims out
right and in the rare cases (e. g., cat
and mouse) where they prolong the
suffering they have no knowledge Of
the pain they are causing. When,
therefore, we stigmatize the conduct of
the cruel man as brutal" we wrong
the brutes.
The animal which attacks another,
and in so doing causes pain, merely
responds to a blind, unthinking in
stinct but man, proud man, who looks
before and after, is able to realize and
take pleasure in the pain he deliber-
ately, and by subtle means maybe, sets
out to cause. 1t is clearly absurd to
speak of his conduct as brutal"
Rather should we call it devilish, the
devil usually being credited with a
goodly share of intelligence. We must
cease to libel the brutes by designat-
ing the basest acts Of man as brutal.
As matter of fact, they cannot be
charged with nonmoral conduct, see
ing that they are devoid Of self-con-
seriousness.

Their strong hearts neither doubt nor

They raise the architrave and spire,

They labor for their fellowmen;

Nor court the praise of tongue or

They slave by every furnace red;
They throng the factory and field;
They soothe the sick and cleanse the

They die themselves, but never

For brotherhood they give their

And fling their bodies to the flame;
They overcome both pain and death
The saints without a name.
They walk the common streets each

With songs they wend unto their

They spend their lives like gold
