CHANGING STYLES.
IN PERSONALITY.

1he person with the open, talk
tive personality used to be the
rage. But styles in personality
change and now the discreet and
dignified has almost put the for
ward fell ow "off the map"
Once the politician went around
shaking hands and kissing babies
occasionally cutting wood for
housewives, it is said. But the
sly office-seeker simply tits up,
hts nose, sticks out his chest and
looks wise. This saves much en-
ergy, and is taken as a sign of
wisdom.
No longer is the "hail fellow
well-met" in style. His place has
been taken by the silent and wise
poised man.
Keep your mouth shut long
enough and you may some time
be asked to run for mayor.
You may have the gift of CAB"
but unless you learn of the magi-
cal. effects of the 'salve of sill
ence," you. will never win your

ROCKS
AND ROSES.

The Butler Herald in an edl-
torial takes a fling at the city
dailes that may start trouble
or thought! In the same article
The Herald pins pink rosebud
on the lapel of the rural papers
Says the Herald:
Turning from the city newspa-
ners to the rural exchanges when
come to our desk is like stepping
from the slums full of vile doors
into an old-fashioned garden sweet
with honey-suckle and the scent
of perennial flowers.
THE pages of the big dailles
are so full of murders, thievery,
immortality the breaking up of
homes by infidelity and selfish
ness, that the better news is OBJ
scured. One puts the paper aside
with a feeling of depression and
heartache that the world is. so full
of such terrible and unhappy
things.
-"Then picking up the papers
that record the happenings of the
smaller towns around US one gains
renewed faith in life. Here are
set forth only that which uplifts
a community-the activities of the
business men, the church news, the
civic good accomplished by the
women, school items, the happy
social gatherings of the people,
the marriages, births and deaths,
farmers' items, and all the thous-
and one daily occurrences K that
make up the simple annals of the
great common people who are
really the foundation of this broad
country of ours. Scandals are sell
dom published in the country news
papers but if it so happens that
decency so demands it, the uglier
details are omitted, or are given
a kindly touch that it is widely diff
terent from the unfeeling publicity
II the city press. No wonder.
The offenders may be our neigh
bors, or people we have rubbed ell
BOWS with all our lives. They are
req human beings, while to, the
great city dailies-th are merely
grams of a sort that are ground
OUT hourly in their news mills"
On first glance this looks like
throwing stones at the big city
dailies, but it at least Should cause
the metropolitan papers to take
note of the reason, Many of them
might well rid themselves of a
certain yellow atmosphere, which
to- us seems demoralizing to our
civilization.
Anyway the rocks and roses of
the Herald are interesting. For
there are sermons in stones, and
poetry in flowers!

A THOUGHT

What l do, thou knowest not
now. but thou shalt know hereaft-
er.-John 1877.
1t is, of course, much pleasanter
if bne is naturally fearless, and
! l envy and respect the men who
are naturally fearless. But it IS
a good thing to remember that The
man who does not enjoy this adj
vantage can nevertheless stand be-
side the man who does, and can do
his duty with like efficiency if he
cbooses.-Theodore Roosevelt.

ture comes to their rescue, hard
ems them against the hardships of
weather.
Nature fortifies US against al
most any obstacle we encounter,
provided we I'VE sensibly and let
her take her natural course.
The source Of all disease is in
restricting natural processes. This
applies to diseases of the mind and
emotions, as well as to the body.
If the story of Devils Lake
doesn't make a sensation among
your weather discussers, try this:
The winter line" has moved
north 1870 miles in the last Is
years.
Putting it in more, scientific
way, American climate is one and
a third degrees warmer, averag-
aging the whole year, now than it
was in 1897. A change of one de-
gree in temperature moves the
winter line" 100 miles north or
south.
Scientists claim that climate has
not changed much in the last 100
years, if we average winter and
summer over 10-year periods. But
the old settlers probably are right
about winters in the northern
states not being as severe as they
used to be. Snowfall is lighter
than in old days when sleighs drove
over fence-tops. Depicting for
ests seems to have changed snow
fall in some mysterious way.
In winter we need an hours
more slep than in summer, says
the medical editor of the London
Times. He figures it out this way;
The two agencies that restore
our exhausted bodies are sleep and
sunlight. When the seasons change
and we have an hour less Of day
light, we need an extra hour OF
sleep to make up for the loss.
No two bodies are exactly alike,
however, and the sleep that will
recuperate one may be too much
or not enough for another. The
wise plan is to let nature guide
us. She tells us when we need
sleep-makes us drowsy. When
we get up in the morning "all fag-
ged out" we are cheating nature
and injuring our health.
Sleep is the best medicine.
