Manners.

Morals and manners, which give
color to life. are of much greater I'M
portance than laws, which are but
their manifestations. The law touches
us here and there, hut manners are
about US everywhere, pervading So
ciety like the air we breathe. GOOD
manners, as we call them, are neither
more nor less than good behavior
consisting of courtesy and kindness,
benevolence being the preponderating
element in ali kinds of mutually
beneficial and pleasant intercourse
among human beings. "Civility,
said Lady Montagu, costs nothing
and buys everything" The cheapest
of all things is Kindness, its exercise
requiring the least possible trouble and
self-sacrifiee. "Win hearts" said
Burleigh to Queen Elizabeth, land
YOU have all mems hearts and purses.
If we would only let nature act kind
ly. free from affectation and artifice,
the results on social good hEmor and
happiness would be incalculable.

Not Always Warned by Instinct.

Many persons are under the impress
sion that the instinct of animals
warns them against eating or drinking
anything Injurious. This may be the
case with wild beasts, but it certainly
is not true with domestic animals. A
chicken will drink paint, and cows
have been known to poison themselves
by draughts from a pool in which high
ly poisonous nitrate of soda had been
STEPPED. Give a canary hempseed in
quantities and 1t will very soon kill
itself.
On the other hand, there are poisons
quickly fatal to man which have COM
paratively little effect upon a lower
form of animal life.
Dogs and horses can take ten times
as much morphine in comparison TO
their body weight as man can. The
dove or pigeon can take 500 times as
much, while the frog is unhurt by a
dose 1000 times greater. weight for
weight, than would kill us.

FAULTY GLOVES MEAN DEATH
Good Reason Why Electric Llnemen
Take Especial Care Of the Rubber
Had Coverings.

You would be extremely careful In
your selection Of a pair Of gloves II
you knew that a rip or tear would
probably cost you your life.
This is the case in which the cleo
trio Iineman finds himself. we are told
by a writer In the American Maehin-
fist. He then goes on and describes
the llnemen's gloves and the great care
with which they are tested. He says:
"Some day when you are walking
along a main-traveled road, where traf-
fic is piled back as far as one can see.
and Iinemen are repairing a broken
wire, stop and watch them work.
1.-THE gloves they wear tell unique
story. Probably she line they are han
ding Is alive and carrying electric
current enough TO cause instant death !;
yet they pick IL up, twist It. splice il
as nonchalantly as though handling a
fishing tackle. They are able TO pick
up the live wire because of the rubber
gloves they wear.
did you know that these gloves are
today made according 10 rigid specifi-
cations completely standardized, and
that no purchasing agent dare buy rub
Der gloves until he has thoroughly
tested them? No glove can be marked
with the manufacturers name or with
the size in such manner as to injure
1t in any way. The gloves must each
be more than IA inches long and the
average thickness not less than COG
inch. They must have tensile
strength of 200 pounds per s1uare
inch and bear having two inches of
their surface stretched to II inches
without a rupture. The gloves must
be capable of withstanding the appli-
cation of $4,000 volts without pune
turing"

How to Treat stammering.

Before the kindergarten section
meeting of the National Society for
the Study and Correction of Speech
Disorders, Or. Walter B. Swift of Bos-
ton, read paper on the treatment of
stammering in its very early Begin
nings. Stammering in very young chill
dren often results from nervous stress
and strain, great fright, the imitation
of others and sometimes from acct
dents. Almost all of these things can
he prevented. The imitation of anoth-
or case can easily be stopped by the
parents. Nervous stress and strain
can be eliminated by proper home hy-
giene, which when put into practice
has been know TO stop stammering in
two weeks. Great strain from fright
can be avoided by having the compan-
ions of the children refrain from pur-
posely frightening them, and after any
unavoidable fright it can be minimiZed
bv proper conversation and advice
after that fright has occurred. Doctor
Swift described one case in which a
cure was effected in two weeks.

GREAT MAN NEVER HESITATES
SeIf-ReIiance One of the Most impor-
tant Possessions That Can
Be Acquired.

Insist on yourself; never initiate.
Your own gift you can present every
moment with the cumulative force of
n whole LIES cultivation; but of the
adopted talent of another you have
only an extemporaneous half posses
sion. That which each can do best
none but his Maker can teach him.
No man yet knows what it is, nor can
till that person has exhibited 1t. Where
is the master who could have taught
Shakespeare? Where is the master
who could have instructed Franklin
or Washington or Newton or Bacon?
Every great man is unique. The Scip-
ionism of Scipio is precisely that part
he could not borrow. If anyone will
tell me whom the great man initiates
in the original crisis when he performs
a great act. / will tell him who else
can teach him. Do that which is as
signed thee and thou canst not hope
too much nor dare too much. Dwell
up there in the simple and noble re-
gions of thy life, obey thy heart and
thou shalt reproduce the Foreworld
again.-Ralph Waldo Emerson.

JUST WHAT WORRIED MOTHER
Her Thoughts on Matter Were Cen.
tered on the Partner of Her
Joys and Sorrows.

The would-be stern father assumed
his most forbidding air as his young
son somewhat guiltily entered the
study.
Charles" he said, with finger up
raised in admonition, II am Mortified
to hear that you were seen at Ro-
mano's the night before last, acting
as host to party of chorus girls. Can
this be true2'
3 "Oh, yes. papa" admitted the
young man, with the merest apology
for a blush.
'Aiy boy, what-what do you sup
pose your poor mother would think
would say-should this come to her
earsP'
"Oh, that's all right. pater," blurted
out young hopeful. Don't you worry
about the mater. AS matter of fact,
she knows and she asked me TO be
sure not TO let you get to know who
they were. Triad (Sydney).

HEN AND KITTEN CHUMMY
Really Remarkable Case of Friend
ship That is vouched for BY
Woman Writer.

The strongest friendship that the
writer has ever seen was that Of a
young Plymouth Rock hen and white
kitten.
When the kitten was about two
months old she was very fond of be-
ing around in the chicken park, or
wherever the chickens were. She was
the friendliest kitten alive and showed
a disposition 10 chum with every liv-
ing thing. But the chickens paid no
attention To her except TO get out of
her way. The hen in question, how
ever. met her advances kindly and
they soon became boon companions.
Many times day they were TO be
seen walking together around the
place The hen would frequently stand
still while kittie would rub back and
forth against her breast. And while
Biddy scratched for bugs and worms,
the little white kitten was never far
away. We do not know what was
their means Of communication, but
they evidently had a satisfying one.
for they never seemed 10 tire of each
other. They associated together 10
the exclusion of he other fowls and
cats on the place. one seldom saw
Riddy with the other chickens. and
little white kitten absolutely deserted
her little white twin. We sometimes
wondered If the kitten thought she
was chicken or the hen believed her
self to be a cat. At all events, they
were most congenial.
This state of affairs continued until
the sale of the farm necessitated their
being parted.-AIabel j. MeIlwane, in
Our Dumb Animals.

JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
Which Is Better Try an Experiment
or Profit by an Annapolis
Citizens Experience

Something new is an experiment.
Must be proved TO be as represented.
The statement of a manufacturer
is not convincing proof of merit.
But the endorsement of friends is.
Now supposing you had a bad back,
4 lame. weak. or aching one
Would you experiment on It?
You will read of many so-called
cures
Endorsed BY strangers from far
away places.
It's different when the endorsement
comes from home.
Easy to prove local testimony.

Cyclones Awful Destruction.

The tropical cyclone is "A real cy-
clone. That is, it is the same sort of
thing as tie ordinary cyclonic air
movements which bring most of our
storms here in the eastern United
States; but in the tropics these move
ments are smaller in circumference,
incGmparably greater in strength,
and fortunately much less frequent in
occurrence. Often i'm a given region
like the West Indies there will be such
storm only once in two or three
years. Tpe weather bureau will usual
" note the storm after ii has started
and will send warning TO ships in its
path by wireless. The ships usually
make port. Those Overtaken by the
storm are almost invariably destroyed.
The islands that are struck by it suf-
fer most. Ships in the harbors are
thrown up on the beach, houses are
blown down and banana and coconut
groves that have taken years TO grow
are destroyed in moment.

DANGEROUS Method.

There are many people who borrow
money and fail to pay it back. 1t
isn't that they do not want to pay 1t
back. but they simply forget. A man
in an Office of large newspaper Dor
rowed a quarter from another man in
the same room. and failed to pay IT
back after reasonable length of time.
But the man who loaned the money
wasn't to be done out of the quarter.
He walked up TO the forgetful bor-
rover and handed him a half dollar
Naturally the borrower said: What
is this for?'
"Oh," answered the money lender,
sthat will make 20 cents you owe me-"
He got his quarter the next day, but
suppose the borrower had needed the
extra half dollar?

Victory Worth While.

There's no satisfaction equal to the
consciousness of measuring up to your
limits. The man who does the merely
ordinary things can never take the
pride in his achievements men of
vision take. They see what lies be-
yond the ken of calculating mortals.
Struggle TO them is second nature.
They delight in hard things because
they are hard. And to them come the
great victories that never tarry long
enough to be made sure TO the weak
ling and the fearful. 1t may cost toll
and struggle TO land the crowns men
pray for. but they have no value with
out sacrifice. When men purchase re
wards that demand the strain of every
capacity TO win them, they are train
ing the personalities in reserve that
when set to work mark the superman.

WORLDS GREATEST SALT BED
Supply in Lower California, II Is As
serted, Is Beyond Possibility
of Exhaustion.

On Carmen island, in the Gulf Of
Loreto, Lower California. are the great
est salt beds in the world. being two
and half miles wide. The salt is Of
natural formation and lies in super
posed strata 60 inches in thickness and
with n strata of water between each
of salt. Although excavations of il
feet have been made without failure
of salt, the extreme depth of stratifica-
ton Is unknown. The surface alone
is worked and as the salt from this Is
carried away, the wafer from the lower
strata rises to the surface, and, after
coming in contact with the air and sun
shine, within a fortnight fills the old
strata with new salt. The salt is dug
out practically pure and by means OF
a diminutive railroad is delivered on
shipboard at "a cost of but % cents a
ton. The Jesuit missionaries offered
to entirely support all the California
missions in return for a perpetual
grant to them OF Carmen island, but
the king of Spain refused to consider
the proposition. Il has been said that
if all the fleets of Europe gathered
there to load salt they never could eX-
haust it. not only on account OF the
great size of the deposits, but prin-
cipally because the salt is reproduced
as soon as taken out.
