AFTER MARCUS AURELlUS

Example has hypnotic force.
Sincerity is inclined to obedience.
Anything worth while is life Job.
Innocence Is an empty form of life
A coward dies on the installment
plan.
Youth Is not Of years only but ma
turity sometimes Is.
He that discovers our vulnerable
part loses our admiration.
Experiences which mature the ,un-
Outstanding may harden the heart.
The optlmist cannot see a devil
without horns nor fool unless he
jangles his bells; the pessimist pro-
vides these appendages for all.--New

OLD NAMES STILL POPULAR
Parents Retain Partially for Favorites
That Have Done Duty for Many
Centuries.

A somewhat interesting census Of
Christian names has been taken In
the public schools Of Stratford- And
1t Is found that old and simple ones
continue to be favorltes. Those which
are represented by more than fifty pu-
pills include: John, 1874; Margaret.
ia; William, 115: George, 81; Mary.
SO; Dorothy. IA; James, 81; Helen. 90,
and Fred, 80. Gladys Is the first in
terloper to appear In the list, with
score of so.
With all the names In the world
at their disposal stage names. names
out of novels, and made-to-order
names, which they or others might In
vent, parents go on, In the same old
way, calling their offspring John and
William and Margaret, and hoping in
vain that they will not be nicknamed
Jack or Bill or Maggie. Occasionally
q name is figured out which is war
ranted to defy corruption into any Of
the familiar variants. But its pos
SCISSOR probably blossoms forth as Fat
ty or Snooty, or in some other guise
quite foreign to the carefully selected
choice of the fond parents. Some
times they telephone their favorite
newspaper and deplore the fact that
they cannot find suitable name.
Nothing Is quite as different us their
child. And will the newspaper please
suggest. But the wise newspaper
thereupon processes utter inability to
find an appellation distinctive enough
and noble enough for the purpose. The
parents sigh. And in all likelihood an
other Is added to the long list Of Johns
and Margarets.-Toronto star.

TASK BEYOND HER CAPACITY
Sustained Interest in Work Too Much
to Expect From Feeble-Minded
Inmate of Hospital.

In an eastern hospital for the in
sane it Is fixed policy Of the insti-
tuition to keep certain Of the inmates
busy at, small tasks work has been
found to have a soothing effect. One
inmate--a woman-elected to make
braided rugs. Her work was excel
lent; she took genuine interest in
her occupation.
There has been found only one flaw
in the scheme, as one person discov-
cred who tried to buy rugs as large
as Z by 5; the hospital would not I'M
dertake such a contract. The reason
was that the woman was not to be
depended upon to finish such large
rug.
A small rug she could finish In
day or two without any departure
from form or pattern, but as often as
she was given a large rug to do there
would come day before the compile
ton of the task when she would be
less calm and composed than was de-
sirable. The result would be star
Ting patch Of color or eccentriclty In

The hospital authorities have final
ly discovered the margin Of safety and
keep the woman worker well within 1t.

Fish Encassd In Heavy Armor.

Encased In a tiny box of armor
which covers Its entire body-only
eyes, mouth, fms and tall protruding,
the trunkfish of the tropical seas Is
a slowly-moving creature. So heavy
and thick is this armor that one has
to give fairly heavy blow with a
hammer to crack It, The armor Is
made of many six-sided horny-plates,
and is beautiful thing In itself, as
well as a useful cover for its wearer.
One species of trunktish has two
long horns reaching out over the eyes
1t is often called cowfish, because
of these horns his head so much re.
sembles that Of a COW.

Tribute to the Candle.

A clever writer pays tribute to the
candle In the following: "All down the
years 1t has trailed its lovely light. 1t
has burned before affairs in old cathe-
drals, illumined banquet halls in old
palaces, and has ever a niche in the
heart of man.
"In England the candles waited In
stately rows on hall tables for gallants
to hand the ladies at retiring time to
light them upstairs, and 1t Is said that
Washington observed this quaint Gus
tom at Mount Vernon, lighting his
guests to their bedroom door.
"Candle-lighting time in New Eng
land breathes the fragrance Of bay
berries and brings back visions Of colo
NAL halls and kitchens and demure
maidens In cap and kerchief. The fame
of many a beauty Of the past might not
have lived had 1t not shone by candle
light. which shows woman at her love

Mirror Not New; Looking Glass Is.

In Greece and in Rome wealthy peo-
pie adorned the walls of their houses
with polished, shining plates Of copper,
gold or silver. The pieces were square.
and were polished afresh by slaves
every day so that their masters and
mistresses might look at themselves
in the metal mirrors.
Up to the Fifteenth century Europe
did not know the glass mirrors. These
were first made in Venice and acquired
an enormous fame which they have
held to the present time. 1t seems as
though no other city is able to rival
Venice In the manufacture of mirrors.

WHAT is WEALTH

TINE ewly elected senator from Min
I nesota, Magnus Johnson, dons
the robe of a prophet of gloom. He
sees revolution if conditions are not
changed. Magnus finds that IS per
cent of the wealth of the country is
in the hands of two per cent of the
population and "unless there is bet
ter distribution of this wealth the
common people are going to revolt
against it."
What is wealth, Magnus? Is it in
the homes, where people have more
fun than elsewhere? In this country,
IL 100000 families hold deeds to their
homes. Is it in motor cars, joyous
chariots of the modern Rome? Eleven
million families own their own auto
mobiles and eleven million more are
saving up to buy gas buggy. Is it
in savings bank accounts? Thirteen
million families have these and their
footings run to nearly ten billions.
In Magnus' own state three families
own their own homes to every two
families that rent. Are these house
owners, these motor car owners, these
savings bank depositors going to join
in a revolution whose object is the
distribution Of wealth? Is Farmer
Magnus Johnson, owner of one of
the largest and finest Gothic barns
in Minnesota, going to make war in
order that his barn be distributed a
mong those who haven't barns?

THE 12-HoUR DAY

COMETIMES the good men do lives
~ after them. 1t was announced
last Thursday that the beginning OF
the end of the 12-hour day had been
reached in the steel mills in the Pitts
burg district.
It will be recalled that the abolish
ment of the 12-hour day in the steel
industry is one of the problems which
received the earnest attention OF
President Harding. He undertook
this task with his characteristic pat
fence and friendliness. The cores
pondence which passed between him
and Judge Gary reveals at once his
firmness and his sincerity. His let
tiers show no trace of hostility nor
contain no implied threats. He sought
to appeal to the human side OF the
steel operators and invoke their sense
of fairness. He made it plain, how
ever, that he regarded the 12-hour
day an Anticipated institution that had
no place in the industry of modern
America.
In this, as in all his officials acts;
the submergance of self is strongly
revealed. The end sought was bet
ter working conditions for the men
who labor in the steel mills and not
additional limelight for Warren G.
Harding. There was not an attempt
to parade himself as the champion of
the workingman and he accomplished
his purpose where a wielder OF the
big stick would have failed.

Cotton, all states report consid-
cradle progress in the growth of
the plant within the past two
weeks. The fields are reasonably
clean and blooms are forming rap
idly in the south and commencing
in the upper region. Boil weevils
are particularly bad in South Geor-
gia and Florida, causing a decline
in the condition figure. This pest
IS reported very active in the re-
mainder of the territory, although
it was held in check by the dry
weather during the past two weeks.

The crop is so late that the direct

outturn of the whole crop is still

Fruit, peaches and apples have a
less encouraging outlook in North

BACK TO FARM ISSUE
ACUTE IN ASSEMBLY
Representative Under to Lead
Fight to Correct ''Discourag-
ing Conditions"

ATLANTA, July 2O.-Efforts to
have the Georgia house of repre-
sentatives disagree with an unfav-
orable committee report on his res
olution asserting that both white
and negro farmers are leaving the
agricultural sections of the south
because of 'discouraging condit-
tions" of the past thirty-five years.
and asking that the General Assem-
bly, take action to correct the al
legged situation and requests con-
gress also to act, will be made by
Representative Under, of Jeff
Davis.
The resolution, which has been
placed upon the calendar, at the re-
quest of the representative, in
part is as follows:
Whereas, there is now consid-
cradle interest being manifested in
the exodus of the negro from the
farms of Georgia to industrial cen
tiers, and,
Whereas the discouraging condi-
tions under which the farms have
