of the Leeward islands in the WeSr In

been combined. the stamp being in
scribed ST. Kits Nevis. the former
name being the popular term for the
island Of St. Christopher
The new issue is practically twice as
large ds the former stamps. bearing
two distinctive designs in oval frames
one being he portrait OF King George
and the other that of Christopher Co

SEES WEAK POINT
Old Man Sykes Recognizes Flaw
in Optimistic krmor.
Little Run-In With HIS Better Hall
at the Breakfast Table, However.
Showed Him the Road to
Victory.

Old Man Sykes has become enam-
ored Of the cult that enthrones mind
over matter and teaches thar a mans
happiness or misery in the world is
determined by his mental outlook.
Sykes reaps happiness from the mere
fact of telling himself thar everything
is all right whether il is OF not.
We are all. of course. merely having
little run-around here on earth be-
tween the cradle AMI the grave. and
we are sure to meet with much unhap-
piness Knowing this. and that no
matter what happens in the meantime.
We shall all make the same earthly
finish, one might us well be good ma
tured about it and get all the joy out
of existence consistent with the laws
of health and longevity. So Sykes is
probably quite right about il. Glenn NJ
Farley writes in the Seattle Post-In-
telligencer. From peeviSh and
irascible individual. exceedingly sen
sitive TO contact with every small I'M
pleasantness, he has acquired an Gle
plant hide for trouble. He was knock
ed down by an automobile the other
day. sprawling on a muddy crossing,
and picked himself up hlithely re-
marking smiIingly 10 the careless driv-
er that it was beautiful day. but
that 1t would probably rain before
morning The driver thanked his stars
that the man was a nut and drove on.
Sykes has passed through many Of
these tests and concluded that he had
his armor all on.
bit off and Sykes remarked upon it
pleasantly; Mrs. Sykes let him have
the whole coffee pot i'm the neck. Her
stomach has been bothering her lately.
and she was in no mood for levity.
And the regrettable part of the whole
business was that Sykes let go of him
self and swore fluently. Mind stepped
out for few minutes and matter re-
asserted itself. 1t was an awful fall
But ii taught Sykes a lesson.
He sees now that he can do moth
ing with the mind-Over-matter theory
unless he leads Mrs. Sykes along the
same path. and it Is hard To argue with
her when her stomach is not working
right. She often comes TO breakfast
feeling that she could bite spike in
two if she had 1T; and then Sykes
springs his mechanical smile and ridS
himself of some persiflage, and if there
is anything handy she throws it at him.
Sykes is now intriguing craftily TO
get her on a bread-and-milk diet and
slip in a few charcoal tablets. feeling
that she will have one of the sunniest
in the world when her
stomach Is right. So the happiness OF
the Sykes family is tied up TO the pos
sibilities of bread and milk and char
coal tablets.
Upon such trifies as these hang the
happiness and content of whole ma
lions.
