may. None OF the crews got what
might be called a thorough workout
As the town begins to MI up with
visitors evidence of the presence OF
sporting blood Is beginning to crop
out, and a number OF bets were regis

SERKESS FOUND HIS MOTHER
Pathetic Gases Such as This One Re.
ported Have Long Been Com
mon in Armenia.

Bright and early one morning
band Of Arabs drove up to the Near
East Relief orphanage at Kars, Ar
menia, bringing with them a forlorn
little chap about five years old.
"We want you to take this boy"
said the leader Of the band to an Off
cial of the orphanage HE has no
father, nor mother"
what is his Manner" the leader Of
the band was asked.
HE is called Serkess," shouted
back the leader OF the Arabs as they
gallOped away.
In this way little Serkess became
a member of our family. He was an
intelligent little chap but seemed I'M
able TO remember anything about his
home or his parents.
A few days later one of the native
women helpers at the Orphanage was
going through the playground when
she suddenly stopped, Hurned pale and
stared unbelievingly at one of the lit
tie chaps who was playing there.
"Serkess I" she cried, and running to
the youngster gathered him into her
arms. Serkess was her son who had
been taken from her two years before
by the Turks.

HISTORY MERELY A LESSON
Paints Pictures Only That They May
Be an Inspiration to Future
Generations.

History does not relate for the sake
of relating; it does not paint for the
sake of painting; it relates and paints
the past that 1t may be living lesson
of the future. 1t proposes to instruct
new generations by the experience of
those who have gone before them. by
exhibiting to them a faithful picture
of great and important events with
their causes and their effects, with
general designs and particular pas
SiOns, with the faults and virtues that
are found commingled in human
things. 1t teaches the excellence of
prudence, courage, and great thoughts
profoundly meditated, constantly pur-
sued, and executed with moderation
and force. 1t shows the vanity of
immoderate pretensions, the power of
wisdom and virtue, the impotence of
folly and crime. Thucydides, Polybius.
and Tacitus undertake anything rather
than procuring new emotions for an
idle curiosity or a worn threadbare
Imagination. They doubtless desire
to interest and attract, but more TO
instruct; they are the avowed masters
of statesmen and the preceptors of
neutrality-suspicious. Cousin.

For a Headache.

A correspondent recommends the
following simple remedy for headache
sick headache particularly. Cut a
lemon in half and squeeze the juice
into a tumbler. Add a few-a very
few grains of sugar, and fill the glass
nearly three-Quarters full of cold wat
er. Now stir in half an eggspoonful
of ordinary baking soda. This will fizz
up, of course, and the draught must
be swallowed during effervescence.
IL one does fails TO relieve headache,
repeat it three hours after. Taken
fasting, the first thing in the morning,
it will do much to settle the stomach
after the sick headache. and probably
prevent its recurrence for some time to
come. This kitchen physic has pre-
vailed when phenacetin and other
nerve-quieters have signally failed to
do so.

Monuolians Great Meat Eaters.

Inhabitants of Mongolia ave great
meat eaters, living in some cases en-
tirely on mutton. 1t is not uncommon
for a Mongol to consume ten pounds
of this meat at one sitting. He also
compares other foods by asking If
they are as good as mutton. The Mon
gol puts mutton fat in his tea, which
is prepared with milk from the poor
est grade of tea, pressed into tricks
He drinks enormous quantities of this,
80 cups a day being no uncommon
amount for an adult. The nativeN eat
whenever opportunity comes, there
being no regular meal hours.
Water is scarce in Mongolia, a
few wells along the caravan r0Jte
furnishing the entire supply. During
the winter and spring the camel is
the only animal thar can cross the
desert and subsist on the drie'l
up grasses. At this season of the year
blocks of ice are carried for water
supply, and in other seasons two large
tubs are carried on each camel, one
tub on each side.

Thinus That Count.

It is not so much what we say but

After all, the world is quickest touched
not by the great building but by the
