Your Good Servant.

Make habit your servant, not your
master" A dog turns around before
he lies down, because his distant an
cestors found it necessary to trample
down the weeds to make themselves q
resting place. And the energy. which
a gone into that restless Emotion
since is beyond calculation. There are
boys and girls today who are doing
useless things, things which hinder
advancement and success, because
they are in the grip of habit formed
long ago. Plenty Of these say, 81 have
always done it," as a sufficient and
satisfactory explanation for anything
and everything.
Habit is M of the most admirable
OF servants. One who is a saver of
time and energy. But it can be the
most tyrannical Of masters. Do not let
1T get the better Of you"
Make habit your servant, but make
1T your good servant.

Sense of Taste.

The principal seat of the sense of
taste is the mucous membrance Of the
tongue, in which dissection reveals q
cults or chorion, a capillary structure,
and an epithelium. The cults is tough,
but thinner and less dense than in
most parts of the cutaneous surface,
and receives the insertions Of the in
trinsic muscles of the tongue. The
papillary structure differs from that Of
the skin in not being concealed under
the epithelium, but in projecting from
the surface like the Wilt of the diges-
tive canal, and it thus gives to the
tongue it's we'll known roughness. The
epithelium is Of the scaly variety, as
on the skin, but is much thinner on
the tongue than on the skin. 1t is
most dense about the middle of the
upper surface of the tongue, and it is
here that, Gin disordered digestion,
there is the chief accumulation of fur,
which, in reality, is simply a depraved
and over-abundant formation Of epi-
thelium. The papillae on the surface
OF the tongue v either simple or COM
pound. The former, which closely
resemble those on the skin, are scat
tered over the whole surface of the
tongue in parts where the others do
not exist, and they likewise particle
pate In the formation Of the compound
papillae.

SAVAGE AND HIS SHIELD
Writer Explains WY Men Button
Their Clothing Wth the Right
Hand.

A popular writer who is particularly
fond of giving his readers diluted sci
ence, in sugared pellets, says that men
button their clothing with the right
hand because their prehistoric ances-
tors used to carry shields on their left
arms. To quote his own words:
primitive man had a shield on his
left arm to protect the heart side from
attack. That left his right hand free
to do the buttoning."
This is interesting and highly imag-
NATIVE, but is it true? Did primitive
man wear shirts and collars, vests and
coats, that buttoned up at all? And
did he know that his heart was more
important to guard than his lungs or
his liver? Is there any real evidence
that he vas concerned about the rela-
tive value of his internal organs, when
he fashioned his shield? Did he carry
his shield on his left arm to protect
his heart OF was it to leave his right
arm, apparently always the stronger,
in the majority of individuals, free to
WELD a sword or spear, or a stone
hammer or knobbed war club, farther
back toward the beginning Of mans
long story on this battered old planet?
Beyond question, he wanted his
most efficient hand and arm free to
use his weapons, but is it certain or
even probable that he had a strong
preference for being stabbed in the
right side, if he must needs be pune
tured at all? Surely the weapon of
attack always dominated the means Of
defense. The knife counted more
than the shield. The spear controlled
the use of hands and arms more than
any buckler ever did.
Buttons are placed for the convent
ence of the right hand, not because the
left hand was kept busy, carrying a
shield, in the childhood Of the human
race, but because the right hand was
usually the stronger and more skillful
then, just as it is now.

Admits U.Boat War A Failure.

London, Sept. 12.-Some indications
of the views Of German naval author
tiles on the U-boat campaign is furn-
ished by the Swiss paper Berner Tag
eblatt. which says:
Certain naval officers Of high au-
thority have evidently expressed or at
least been suspected of entertaining
the opinion that the submarine war.
if not a downright failure, has gone
wide of its mark"
It is the custom of German author
tiles to break disagreeable news 10
the German people by publishing il
first through neutral sources. 1t IS
significant that the statement of the
Berner Tageblatt is reprinted without
comment by the official Wolff bureau
for consumption by the German pup
lie. VOLTS bureau further volun-
teers the statement that the declara-
ton by certain naval officers of high
authority" that the submarine war is
a failure has led to dispute among the
German naval authorities.

abroad it is not astonishing that she
was secured by the Metropolitan

The fact that Miss Tiffany is to be
assisted by Mr.. Graham Harris lends
added interest to the event.

Mascaani and the Wsr.

Pietro Mascagni. the celebrated COM
poser, once told how the opening
chorus of "Cavaleria" was composed
on the night of February 8, 1889, when
his first child was born. That son,
Mimi, is now, or was recently, driving
Il motor-truck for the italian army /;
ard a second boy, Dino, became pri-
waite in the engineer corps, blowing up
Austrian barbed-wire barricades. On
a visit to the young soldiers Mascagni
saw his first battle.
"This is indeed music" he wrote. SIT
seems as if all the big drums in my or
chestra had been multiplied by mil
lion and suddenly gone mad"
The composer gave open-air concerts
in the trenches, on one occasion at
tended by the king of Italy, and he
set himself at work on great patriot
ic symphony, designed to be musical
apotheosis of Italy's ''war of redemp-
ton"
