DEEDS RATHER THAN WORDS
Accomplishments. Even Though Great.
Lose Much Of Their Merit When
Made Subjects Of Boast.

The habit Of boasting is not a sign
Of merit. 1t is rather the reverse. A
really brave man allows his deeds to
speak for him, and they always will
II they are great and strong enough.
remarks the Ohio State journal. These
are great days for boasting. for there
is much to be proud Of. We are proud
or our country, Of our sacrifices of
our privations, Of our. sorrows. hut
they are apt to lose their merit by our
boasting about them. The testimony
OF q worthy deed Is not expressed In
words but In a quiet and noble life.
We heard q man tell of q heroic deed
In which he was the hero. but one
wouldn't know II from what he said
and yet somehow in his very tone and
his praise for others one could easily
see whose was the honor OF it, There
la one phase of boasting which is very
distas.eful, and that Is the sort which
makes ourselves the greatest people
on earth. OF course we are. but we
don't know II from what the boosters
say. We only know II by hearing Of
the acts Of our heroes. who are apt
not to mention 1t At all. We learn OF
our own nobility by feeling II In our
hearts and not by reading II in the
newspapers or hearing the orators
tell II.

SPEECH THAT MADE" RILEY
incident In Early life 0f Seio.ea .n-
diana Poet That Is Well Worth
Recalling.

AFTER many disappOintments In for
fune, James WhlIcomb Riley was en-
ployed, AT a few dollars a week. as
writer on the indianapolis journal.
Shortly after, Lie Halford, who was
afterward private secretary TO Presi-
dent Harrison, came to the paper AZ
managing editor. He decided TO cur
down expenses and began by discharg-
Ing Riley as his first victim. The blow
was hard one for Riley. and he was
discouraged and about ready to give
up in despair. But q couple Of days
later there was political convention
In the city and one Of the men nsmi-
mated was big fellow who had never
made speech in his life. He was
called on to speak. and. shifting from
one toof TO the other In perfect aEoay
Tor moment. he hIurted out: Gen
tlemen, I thank you for this nomina-
lion. can't make q speech, but 7
can tell you one thing: The ticket
you've nominated today 10 soin' to
win when the frost is on the punkin'
and the folders Ia the shock"
That speech took the house by
storm and II was evident that the del
egates and the spectators had read
this poem OF Riley's which had ap-
peared in the paper just a few day,
oerore. The circumstance brought the
phpev back to Riley's rescue, and his
nrst book. THE Old Swimmln' Hole
and Leven More Poems" was pub
hshed and made n great hit. The orig
insl copy of this book recently sold
for $500.

EXPLAINING FALL OF JERICHO
se'entists Have Shown How Happen
Ing at Which Many Have Sesffed
Was Quite Possible.

May have refused to believe the
biblical susEestisa that the walls Of
Jericho fell down before the Iarae elites
as q result Of the sound caused by
their shouts and the horns blown by
the seven priests.
Modern researches and discoveries
In regard to sound phenomena. how
ever. show that such biblical mira cles
could be reconciled with natural law.
Vibration Of sound Ia q thing the
possibilities Of which We do not vet
understand. 1t is said that one Of the
great tenor singers can break q wine
glass by singing into it's keynote.
The sub-bass Of the pipe organ is
known - rack pews to pieces with its
sympathetic note.
The authentic story In told Of an
old fiddler who. augered BY the work
men constructing the f1rst suspension
bridge at NiaEsra. threatened to eddie
II down. OF course he was laughed
at, but. seating himself near the
bridge he began to experiment with
his bass string.
When he found the note that suited
him he sawed away on that note. The
cables responded and soon the bridge
was swayinE In an alarming fashion.
II he had not been stopped he might
have fulfilled his threat. In any case
care was sfterward exercised to pre-
vent a particle of vibration in the
bridge.

troubles In France and Italy.
storms and floods are foretold for
Al degrees west longitude and there
may be disasters to shipping.
During this planetary sway the army
and those at the head Of II are likely
to be subject to influences making for
discomfort and bitter rivalries.
Great honors are to be bestowed on
more than one military man. but none
OF these will be political, the seers as
sert.
Whatever is mechanical is most like
ly to suffer under this rule, and for
this reason Inventions accepted and
manufactured by the government will
be much condemned during this month
In all probability.
While this configuration prevails per-
sons are easily inclined to be abrupt,
brusque n sarcastic. For this reason
self-eontrol Is counseled.
1t Is not q kindly sway for domestic
happiness. Increase of divorce is again
prognosticated, There will be also eff
forts to change marriage laws and these
will involve religious controversies.
All those who read the stars give
special warning that the spoken word
should be guarded, for the contagion Of
thought will be more rapid In the flu
ture than ever before. This is one OF
the signs OF the new era.
Music has the best possible planetary
direction, making for widespread popu-
larity. Bands will take the place OF
stimulants, astrologers predict.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is may
meet with trouble and worry in bust
ness, but by discreuon they may sue

Children born on this day may be
restless and impulsive. These subjects
