NOT LIKE EXCURSION TICKET
Affiction Could Only Be Relied On to
Take Its Possessor in One
Direction.

Samuel Gompers at labor ban
quet was condemning certain ultra
radical policies.
"Such policies" he said, "will get us
into trouble right enough, but will they
get us out again? Listen, gentlemen,
to a fable.
SIN a lunatic asylum there was a
lunatic nicknamed Solomon because it
was his custom to call every newly ar
rived lunatic up and question him
about his infirmity, afterwards dis
missing him with a kind of Solomon
esque opinion or verdict.
swell, one day Solomon called up
a new lunatic who had a very stiff
walk.
"'What may be your trouble, friend ?
he said.
"Tve got glass rod in the mid
die of my back the new lunatic an
swered.
"a glass rod in the middle of your
back, eh?' And Solomon chuckled.
We'll, friend, glass rod in the middle
of your back will bring you here, but
you'll find that it will never take you
OUT"

DO WE YAWN?

0XYGEN is one of the elements of
healthy, normal action of the
lungs. Unless a sufficient quantity of
oxygen is taken into the body, the
lungs become irritated and flash a
signal to the brain that larger sup
ply is necessary. The easiest method
to overcome this shortage. of oxygen
is, of course, to take in an increased
amount Of air at one time. Hence
the nerves which regulate our breath
ing apparatus react upon our jaw and
throat muscles, causing both of them
to open wide. Expansion of the lungs
at the same time results in the in
halation of much larger amount of
air than is obtalnable through Or
binary breathing, thus supplying the
needed amount of oxygen.
The reason that yawning is usually
connected with a feeling of drowsi-
ness is because a desire for sleep is a
sign that the body is tired and is seek
ing a stimulant of some kind-either
rest or an added amount of oxygen,
the fuel which keeps the human fur
mace burning brightly. The satisfac-
ton which follows yawn is due TO
the fact that the blood has received
an extra supply of the material which
it needs and we Immediately feel the
benefit of this.

THE HANDS

wv HEN the hands hang Imply at
w the side, and are heavy, thick,
and fat, you may deduce there
from, generally, that the intellect of
the possessor will be likewise heavy
and fiat" All is density and there
is no use trying to raise the possessor
of such hand out of the depths of
materialism. When you read his or
her hand, says one authority, ''if you
attempt keen analysis, he will
blankly stare at you No use trying
to lift him out of his trough of mate
rialism. 1t can't be done. He
wants to know his brothers name,
whether he is married, how many chill
dren, how long he will live. whether
he will be rich, and you cannot lift
him above this plane"
Last, we have the cautious person
who enters your room with an air Of
investigation and with the hands car
ried behind the back, where they are
clasped. This person is timid and
well meaning, but suspicious of the
value and merits ami standing Of
palmistry. You must deal gently with
him; he is open to conviction, but
must be led and cannot be driven.

somethinq to Think About

Blu F. A. WALKER

that your brain is clear and your
thoughts at rest.
This, you will discover later, is
because of the orderly method adopt
ed of taking up but one subject at
a time and not letting it go until you
have no further use for it.
One of the foremost merchants of
New York. confronted with thousands
of serious questions every day, has
formed the habit OF returning to his
home at night as care-free as school
boy, during vacation season.
When he leaves his desk, he leaves
his perplexities.
The next morning he comes in
bright-eyed, light-hearted, eager to get
in the fray.
If by chance the first encounter
should happen to be troublesome, he
dispenses with 1t before proceeding
to another
There is no loss of time, no trying
OF nerve force in fitting from one
problem to another.
He drives straight ahead and makes
decision after decision without the
slightest sign of furry.
And you, however burdened you
may be, can do the same If you hold
unswervingly to the same course.

Land Seized Under Guise of Science.

Land Seized Under Guise of Science.
The Cameroons and Togoland which
are now under the mandate of Great
Britain by authority of the treaty OF
Versailles, were handed ever to EN-
peror William Iby German professor
whose ostensible interest in the black
races was scientific.
Gustave Nachtigal (1824 to 1850
had made many exploring trips into
Africa and brought back tales of COM
mercial and other possibilities that
strongly appealed to Bismarck. IN
1884, the Iron Chancellor instructed
Nachtigal to explore certain regions
on behalf of the government, and when
the scientist had arrived at his des-
tination German officer who had ac-
companied him at the special direc-
ton of Bismarck, instructed him to
plant the German flag on the roof Of
the hut of the greatest chief Of the
country and to declare the population
subject to the scepter of the German
kaiser.

THE BIGGEST BOY

THE Biggest Boy" Is not at home
i He FLEW the nest" last night.
/ knew the day was bound to
come,
And yet tears dim my sight.
The Biggest Boy" has said goodbye,
And gone to play his part
On life's grim battlefield, and l
Am lone and sad of heart.
The Biggest Boy" said Goodbye
Dad!"
And dad" said, Goodbye, sonl''
And then the boy with head erect,
Went forth-his work begun.
And over in the corner there
Dads" eyes will fall upon
The Biggest Boys" now vacant chair,
And miss the boy that's gone
The Biggest Boy gulped back a sob
When on his lips was pressed
The little mothers goodbye kiss,
When mothers hands caressed.
And then he smiled and went his way
To fight and win, or die;
While Dad" and mother could but
say,
"God bless you, son; goodyear"
The Biggest Boy" is in the ranks
OF that great fighting band
That seeks by arts of toll and peace
To upbuild this fair land
And dad" and mother fondly hope
AS only parents can,
The Biggest Boy" will do his part
And do 1t like man.

TOUCH OF WINTRY WEATHER
CTIILLS SPRING BUYING SPIRIT

and great progress has been made
in this section in preparing the
ground for spring crops. Increased
activity in the agricultural sections
is helping business and retailers are
buying more freely than they have
in long time. Jobbers in nearly
every line report a larger volume of
business and say that indications
point toward a Well sustained trade
throughout the spring and summer,
although most of the purchases now
are for immediate needs.
One notable feature of the dry goods
trade has been the heavy purchases
of jobbers from surrounding cities,
in need of goods for prompt shipment,
who came here for their supplies
rather than wait for. stocks from the
cast. Retail trade is still affected
somewhat by n-between-season con-
ditions. Clothing and ready-to-wear
goods are moving slowly. The best
sales are in linens and household
furnishings.
General financial conditions show a
marked improvement in this section.
Money is easier than at any time for
years, although there is good de-
mand for new loans. Deposits are
increasing steadily and most of the
local banks, have paid off their re-
discounts at the reserve bank. There
is active demand for high-class Sc

Per Cent of Disputes.

PHILADELPHIA, March 22.-With
labor problems so prominently in the
foreground of all the railroads trou-
bles, the Pennsylvania railroads state
ment on the workings of its joint re-
viewing committees is interesting.
when the "Pennsy" inaugurated this
system Of. settling grievances and
controversies with its employees last
year, one of the objections urged by
labor leaders was that the commit
tees would be under the control of
the railroad. The statement shows
this not to be the case.
OF the 6,196 cases taken up by the
committee last year, 3,729, or more
than 60 per cent, were decided against
the company; 2,314 were withdrawn
or dropped as being without merit.
and the management won decisions in
per cent.
The statement referring to the
number of its stockholders shows how
wide is it's stock distribution, and
especially how widely it is held
among woman investors. The total
number of stockholders March / was
l41,922, an increase of 6,466 in a year,
the wider distribution resulting in a
decrease of 1856 per cent in the aver
age holdings Of each person. Women
held nearly Al per cent of the COM
pany's 9,985.314 shares outstanding,
and in the year to March l the num-
her of woman stockholders increased
1892, the total at that date being
66,5OS. The number of foreign share
holders also increased 1855 in the
year, and their average holdings was
131 shares, an increase of twenty-one.
