No Standardized Golf Ball.

An interesting point In connection with balls Is that tennis balls and baseballs have both been standardized much more than the golf ball. In golf no particular brand of ball has been adopted, but in the last year the rules have been changed by the United States Golf association and the Royal and Ancient in Britain, to specify that ball not smaller than 1.62 inches ill diameter, nor more than 1.62 ounces in weight be used in tournament golf. "rhe reason why no particular make of ball has been selected as of fieial in the golf field Is that only one player uses the ball in the course of the tournament" an authority said. Tn tennis and baseball there has to be not only standard ball, but one of particular make. because with these balls the player is asking his opponent to use the same ball. Your ball may suit your style of play yet send him off his game" ."-Exchange.

LANDOR HAD PROPHETIC EYE
Brilliant Englishman Correctly Fore saw Dire Events Of Which He Vain
 fy Warned His countrymen.

The pamphlet to Lord Liverpool and the British parliament, written by Wal ter Savage Landor in 1913, of which two copies only are known to exist. makes highly spirited reading. In it he sets out, with keen concern and much energy of indignation. to criti- cize the magnanimity with which Eu- rope, and more especially England, showed themselves inclined to treat Napoleon after the battle of Leipsic, Napoleon whom Landor regarded as a criminal, fit only for the gallows. Of Elba, he declared propheticaIly that 1t was "a rat trap open at both ends, from which it was impossible that Napoleon should not escape" Was the congress of Vienna, he asked in bitter scorn, with its "well-dressed ambassadors and ingenious state papers, to pro duce nothing more lasting than an- other treaty of Uuecht7 He called in vain for the temper of Lord Chatham which should deliver the country from mere experimental peace" With in a year of Napoleon's punishment to the "rat trap open at both ends," he was back in France, and Europe was once more plunged into war.

Seif-ReliaYtca

Now is the time for every one who wants work to think up something for himself. Don't depend upon somebody else. The integrity of life consists in self-reiianee. Be your own proprietor, If it is of nothing else but an acre and little shop. We know the difficulty and do not discard the sympathy. But regard rather that independence and high purpose that make up the real manhood. Men will have to work for others while time lasts, but there is nothing so noble in the hearts as the aspiration to be ones own man and direct one's own destiny. Society Is divided in classes these days. each one striving to outwit the other, but the grandest class of all is the man him. self, with his own destiny in his fists. With all our organized industry. there never was a time when individual CT. terprlse had better chance than now.
 If you are articulated In some great in- dustry, keep in the heart the hope that you will be your own master some day. Ohio State Journal.

Laugh Reveals Much.

There is the man who Is always smii- Ing, whose whole person radiates af- fection and good cheer. His Is the frank, open countenance that makes and keeps friends, for he has the true spirit of good-fellowship.
 He is the man whom you enjoy going to with good news. and of whose sym pathy you can be sure when you are in trouble. He Is the friend, always, that everyone admires, trusts and likes. just because he has the smile that spells warmth.
 A laugh Is n little thing, and appar- ently to judge man by his laugh seems like making a mountain out of molehill. But "straws show which way the wind blows," and psycholO- gists assert that the little things arc the real indices to character. So watch out when your friends laugh, and see if they are worth while.-Rehoboth Sunday Herald.

REVEAL MINDS OF POETS
Nomenciatures 0! Serbian Cities and Villages Show Character of Peo-
 pie In Striking Manner.

The names of the. villages in which our many friends lived and from which they often walked 20 miles or more to be of use to US I set down Tn my notes, partly because the words, In and of themselves are pictorial and atmos- pherie and partly because their mean ing reveals the essential, natural poetry of the Serbian mind. A few of the most striking ones may appro- priately bring this chapter of Serbian helpfulness to 0 close, Caryl B. Storrs writes in Minneapolis Tribune.
 Monastfr the metropolis of southern Serbia means the city of monks" Kremljani where our camp was To- cated means "dwellers among quartz ite" from the Quanties of quartzite rock in the vicinity. The Slavic root of the word Kremljani, by the way, Is the same used in the name of the Kremlin at Moscow.

Few Fine Pearls Found.

New fine pearls are rarely found nowadays because the demand has been so great and the fisheries have been worked so continuously that the pearls are not given time to grow. If a fine pearl is bought, it Is rarely one that has not been in the market for many years and passed from one deal- 'er to another. Dealers today depend to a large extent upon purchases of pearls from collections of rajahs and princes in India and of old families In Europe. They declare that every time large and really fine pearl appears In the market hundred wealthy per sons bid for it Consequently the best pearls are beyond the reach of any but the wealthiest people.

cuips Which Tickle Travellers.

Nature seems occasionally to have been in an impish mood of jocularity when she was about her work of shaping and molding things For in stance, why did she make the Dalma- tian side of the Adriatie one mass of islands and creeks, which are just so many hiding holes for any power that has designs on Italy. and at the same time lay the Adriatic seaboard of Italy as bare and flat and plain as she could plan it7 Was it to make the Italian people wide-awake and watehful and resourceful? Besides. the modern world In its pride must never forget that the peninsula produced the Roman.
