Let a man's energy be ever so . defective, he Is expected to rise at 4 a. m. and don new clothes to meet the auspicious morning. Then, with Ms gala garments In due order, he wor ships the gods, performs obeisance to the spirits of his ancestors and pays homage to all relations older than him self. No ordinary viands are con,8Tnn ed at breakfast. The tea must be made from water drawn from the well as the first ray of the new year's sun strikes it. On every table figures a red lacquer tray covered with ever green leaves and. supporting a rice dumpling, a lobster, oranges, persim mons, chestnuts, dried sardines and herring root, all these dishes possess ing an allegorical signification. This meal is the start , of the festivities, which are continued for sixteen days, business being almost entirely suspend ed for the first week of the year. Chi cago News. Six Hits With No Runs. Baseball has some funny freaks, but none ever beat one which a writer re calls happened in a game in Indiana on .May 30, 1890, when the Anderson eKib got three triplets, a double and two singles in one inning, and yet they didn't score. Ireland, the first batter, hit for a triple and tried to score on a short passed ball, but was tagged out. Wiswell, the next batter, hit for what looked like a home run, but -was caught at the plate by a good, return. Sham way, the next batter, tripled. The next batter, Derby, bunted, and while the third baseman was waiting for the ball to go foul the batter made second, thus giving him two bases. Faatz also bunt ed and was safe, as Shumway on third was held from scoring. Thia made five bits, and the sixth came when Fear hit a liner to right, the ball hitting Faatz on the way to second, thus retiring the side. The Friends We Might Have Made. The most pathetic phase of life Is a realization of the friends that we never make, the friends that might have been made by just exerting ourselves a little more. Who ever contemplated the loss of friends that he might have made by just releasing a little of his self cen tered reserve? We appreciate the per son who always greets us at meeting day after day. It is so easy, so simple, to spread the halo of happiness about ns that we often overlook it and go through the. world thinking that every smile and every good Impulse we have is not worth while unless " bartered away for something in exchange. There life loses its whole value. It is when it comes from within with a wor thy motive that happiness is truly ours. National Magazine. , r Everybody On Good Friday we all order our Fish Dinner.

The BRYANT ELECTRIC CO. E S19 tf Climbing to Church. The only way of reaching the old parish church at Whitby, in Yorkshire, from tbe town is by means of 199 stone steps, probably as carious an approach to a place of worship as any in the kingdom. The church stands on the eaet cliff some 20O feet above sea level, and to watch the crowd of worshipers before and after service threading its way up and down the winding stair way is a sight to be remembered.
