APPEALS TO EUROPEAN EYES
Picturesque Island Of Zanzibar Has
Charm Possessed by Few Other
Places in Africa.

The little island Of Zanzibar Is one
Of the most picturesque places in Az
rica-one Of the few places of the
dark continent that Is picturesque at
all. That Is because It Is an old,
historic island, with traces Of van
ished peoples, accretions Of old GUS
toms, memorials of forgotten events.
The greater part of Africa Is primi-
tive, nature in a state Of nature, and
nature is magnificent, beautiful awe
inspiring, terrifying, but rarely pic
turesque. The latter is characteri-
cation of the works of man, which
comes to them with time. The frame
is what makes the picture, and 1t is
only man VINO builds frames.
The narrow streets of Zanzibar, the
massive carven doorways, the stern
old houses, the time-worn markets, the
crooked, mysterious alleyways,, the
riot of color and the babel Of tongues,
the still heat that throws over 1t all an
Illusion of vagueness like play seen
on the stage, make picture that will
remain fresh in the memory for years.
The island is set like fluted emerald
In green sea, with still blue sky
burning changeless overhead. In the
past Zanzibar was the home of all the
wonder and cruelty Of the East, set
tied and harried by the Arab and Mos
lem traders from Egypt and Turkey.
Today 1t Is British protectorate.

Man Who Wrote 1t Had Proper Appre-
citation of the Advantages OF
Life In the Country.

If any country boy ever becomes dis
contented with his lot and thinks there
might be more opportunities elsewhe, q,
or a better place to live than In white
farmhouse, let him read the creed COM
posed by Edwin Osgood Grover. The
lines might be pinned up on his bu-
reau, where he can see them the first
thing in the morning and the last
thing at night.
81 believe that the country, which
God made, is more beautiful than the
city, which man made; that life out
Of doors and In touch with the earth
is the natural life Of a man.
81 believe that work Is work where
ever we find 1t, but that work with
nature Is more inspiring than work
with the most intricate machinery.
81 believe that the dignity of labor
depends not on what you do, but on
how you do 1t; that opportunity comes
to a boy on the farm as often as to a
boy In the city; that life Is larger and
freer and happier on the farm than in
the town; that my. success depends not
upon my location, but upon myself A.;
not upon dreams, but upon what l
actually do; not upon luck, but upon
pluck.
81 believe in working when you work
and in playing when you play, and In
giving and demanding square deal in
cry act of life."

FEW PERSONS REALLY HAPPY
Whatever the Cause, the Great Major.
ity of People Fail to Make the
Best of Their Lives.

The other night we CHANGED to ask
an eminent physician of New York city
his opinion as to the number of people
who were truly happy. His rather
dogmatic reply was:
"About one in hundred"
And this was not the opinion Of a
pessimist, but of a most radical OPP
timist.
We wonder If this opinion Is shared
by others. 1t does not mean, Of course,
that ninety-nine people out Of hun
dred are deeply unhappy-that would
be absurd. But there Is no doubt that
a great many people are quite unhappy
a good deal of the time, perhaps not
half the time, but enough rather to
cloud their lives.
We should like to know the opinion
of physicians generally. More and
more people go to the doctors to tell
them their troubles. The physician of
today takes the place of the confess
sional of yesterday.
Then, too, there is the new applica-
ton Of psychology to the field of medi-
cine-the so-called psycho-analysis,
which is so rapidly taking It's place as
an important part, literally, Of the
medical pharmacopeia. This new
science has given a wonderful insight
into our subconscious selves and re-
veals how far that subconscious self
really dominates our lives and deter
mines the amount Of happiness which
we really get out Of this confused well
ter of existence.-New York Tribune.

FELT THAT He NEEDED "PEP"

Frank GrOninger, attorney, has a

suspicion. Grasping one Of the minia-
xure garden tools at Jacks feet she
dug vigorously into the wet mud. A

Sslence she scraped the mud from her
5eweled gold watch.
But, IL Jack didn't succeed In grow

First Use of Chimney.

During the Middle Ages the princi-
pal advance made in heating was made
through the introduction of chimneys
into private dwellings. They were first
introduced into France in the eighth
century, but were rare and did not
come into common use until several
hundred years later. In Poland during
the early part of the modern period
houses were heated in winter by means
Of a kiln built into the room, but which
was fired from the outside. In order
to keep warm the family slept not only
around the sides of the kiln but also
on top Of it.

Trade Marks In the Orient.

You can acquire trade mark right
In japan by registration only, and not
by priority of use, and IL you omit to
register anyone else may fOrestall you
with your own mark. There are no ma
tional laws in China covering the reg
istration of trade marks. 1t Is usual
for exporters to register their marks
at their own consulates, and 1t is re-
garded as good precaution to have
them registered in Japan as well.

Where Man Is Not Supreme.

Psychologists tell us that the human
nose is a degenerate organ; clumsy In
comparison with the noses of dogs and
other lower animals If a man has run
across a meadow 1t would be folly for
you or me to try to find his tracks by
smelling the grass, even half minute
after he had passed. But days after
ward, when perhaps the tracks of that
man have been crossed by those of
many other men, bloodhound's nose
will pick them up and follow them in
fallibly. The noses of the lower ami
mails are far keener than those of men.
But those of men are keener than
their fingers. their tongues, their ears
or their eyes.

q red-blooded man on the job.
such a man Is Truman H. New.
berry. or that We can rest assured.
HE has always advocated and work.
cd for preparedness. He has always
gone the limit In his personal and
public way for preparedness. And
when opportunity came his way he
did his duty with good judgment, with
actual results, and with a proper men,
tai capacity to understand his position.
His sons are in the service. In his
life there have been two wars in which
this country took part. In each he
did not miss his opportunity to do the
best job that any man can do for the
country.
Republicans in Michigan need
never be ashamed Of their senator IL
they elect Newberry. He hasn't an
opportunity to come home from his job
In the harbor of New York to make a
campaign Of speeches throughout the
state. His friends are doing that. AN
he has a great number Of them"
Linden Leader: Truman H. New
berry, of Detroit, is a man who has
not made heretofore any great noise
in the political arena, but withal a
man who has been doing things which
count"
Addison Courier: "Newberry was
an efficient secretary Of the navy and
began the work which resulted in more
privileges, more pay and more public
recognition for the enlisted man in
the service"
Richmond Review: Just as sure
the chills of winter approach Will
the Republicans and their supporters
pick and place the next United States
