Deep Fresh Water.
In Lake Baikal, in Asia, the extra
ordinary depth of more than 5,600
feet has been reached, making this
by far the deepest fresh water known.
It now appears that Lake Tanganyika,
in Africa, may approach this depth, as
Capt. Jacobs ot the German navy has
reported a sounding of 4,190 feet, and
a Belgian officer claims to have pene
trated still lower. Tanganyika's deep
est bottom Is at least 1,600 feet be
low sea level.
Very Old Custom.
The custom of saying "God bless
you" to a person when he sneezes
originated among tho ancients, who,
fearing danger from it, after sneezing
made a short prayer tq the gods, as
"Jupiter help me." Tho custom is
mentioned by Homer, 'the. Jewish rab
bis and others. Polydore, Vergil says
it took its rise at tho time ot the
plague In 558, when the Infected fell
dead, sneezing, though -apparently In
health.
Transferring Box, Kites.
The United States experts use box
kites In many meteorological experi
ments, but have hitherto found dif
ficulty In transporting them across tho
country from one station to another
by reason of their shape and size.
A novel type has, been devird which,
by-cutting a few strings and loosen
ing four bolts, permits the kite to be
knocked down Into flat, compact form,
very much like a collapsible box or
carton.
Best of Political Parties.
The political parties that I would
call great, are those which cling more
to principles than to consequences;
to general, and not to special cases;
to Ideas, and not to men. such par
ties are usually distinguished by a
nobler character, more' generous pas
sions," more genuine convictions, and
a moro bold and open conduct than
others. De Tocquevlllo.
t, Keep Busy.
Tho best preventive against Idleness
ts to start with the dee;-seated con
viction of the earnestness of life.
Whatever men say of the world, it Ib
certainly no stage for trifling; In a
scene where all, are at work Idleness
can lead only to wreck and ruin.

Which Kills Most Worry or Drink?
That the optimism which pervades
Kate Langley Bosher's new book,
"The House of Happiness," has the
racy quality of the phollosophy of
those who live near the soil, would
seem to be proved by the following
remarks of one of its characters:
"And if anybody will tell me what
good worryln' does they can have ev
ery egg my hen Is agoln' to lay this
spring! More folks wear out from
worryln' than dies from drink, and
drink Is the king-bee killer, Mr. Doyo
says, and he ought to know, beln' a
preacher."
"He thinks all the world of her,
waits on her like she was a baby. I
used to think she was a fool critter,
but it's me who's been the fool. A
man don't think much of aVoman he
don't have to wait on."
"I ain't never heard tell that the
Lord pays taxes, or cuts the firewood,
or mends the roof when it leaks, or
gets shoes for the children, and all
them things has got to be done. Solo
mon Hatch leaves things he don't like
to do to the Lgrd. He gets me and
the Lord mixed up."
Varnish Soles of Shoes.
Patented liquids to spread upon the
soles of shoes In order to make them
wear longer have recently been an
alyzed In the laboratories of La Na
ture, In Paris. The chemists report
that these are little else but copal
varnish, very strong In copal. They
suggest that, as this Is far less ex
pensive than any of the patented sub
stances, it bo used Instead of them.
Their advice is to wear new shoes
for several days to make the surface
of the soles more absorbent, then to
varnish them with the copal until the
leather refuses to take up any moro.
Set tho shoes aside until the varnlBh
is perfectly dry. They close their re
port with the comment: -
"We do not know If this really
makes the leather more resisting.
But one can always try and we hope
that some of our readers will do It
and let us know the results."
Sad Regrets.
She "If I'd known before we were
married that you swore so, I'd never
have accepted you." Ho "Confound
It! That's what comes of being a
hypocrite."
Good Street Car Rule, Too.
In The How to Do It Series, the Lon

this .valuable advice: To avoid disease
germs 'insido the motor bus, ride out

That all the lodges seem to be

That a certain Negro slapped his

That when you miss a friend now

That a certain buffet flat has such

That a certain Miss Is sweating

That when an usher shows you a
seat and you take another, you are
guilty of the grossest violation of pub

That a white brother who was so
liciting laundry In a Colored settle

day, and admired his keystone very
much and casually remarked that he
owned one. Tho Colored brother ask

up in Wisconsin. The Colored broth
er repeated the question and the
white brother made a long story
about the difference, demultlcatlon
and so forth. When the black brother
said, "Well, what would you do if you
heard a cry In the night? Would
you ask: "Are you white, red, black,
brown or yellow?" The white broth

act afterward." Take the witness.

There Is a reason why the larger
per cent of Cabinet Stationary used
by Kansas City's "400" Is turned
from tho Arthur W. Harris Printing
Establishment. First their work
manship In this class of service is
unexcelled by any of the larger ana
best equipped printing establish
ments In this city, since they all but
make a specialty of this class of
work. Second, while their prices are
not always tho lowest, they are al
ways the fairest. They have "de
livered" with accuracy and despatch
to over 90 per cent of the classy
weddings and receptions during the
past year and now when a function
of class Is announced Us a ten-to-one
shot that Harris will handle the
job.
