“They Say.”
No combination of words in the lan
guage has caused more trouble and
pain and sorrow than the phrase “they
say. ’'
It hits in the dark. It is anony
mous. It has no personality. It cannot
suffer from any reaction. It is totally
irresponsible.
The phrase ought to be put under the
ban.
It is this way: You speak to some
one of a mutual acquaintance. There
is a shrug of the shoulders, or a lifting
of the eyebrows, and a lowering of the
voice, with the preface “They say”
Even when the gossip fails to give
his authority he has put an evil sug
gestion into your mind respecting the
person he speaks of, a suggestion it is
impossible to be rid.of. The impress
ion stays. Suspicion lurks. A great
wrong is done.
“They say.”
When the suggestion is dropped into
eager ears and there is a willing
mouth to give the evil message utter
ance to other eager eais, the assassina
tion of character has begun.
What “they say” may sometimes be
a true message. But is it a necessary
message? Will it make the world bet
ter or worse the telling of it?
It is very plain that much suffering
and sorrow might be prevented by cut
ting the ugly word from our vocabu
lary.
It would pea fine thing if everyone
of us could have the courage to prompt
ly halt “They say” with a peremp
tory—
Who says?

Aside from the health arguments, the
main point is the convenience. The
cover has no thread and soft rubber
band and simply lies on the top of
the jar. The heat drives out the air
and when cooled a vaccum is formed
which permits the atmospheiic pressure
to hold the cover in place. In opening,
the cover is punctured and new covers
bought each year, or they can be solder
ed. The new article is said to be
calculated to reduce the temper of
women and the profanity of men.
Fish-Eating Butterflies.
The butterfly was blue and trans
parent. As through blue glass its tiny
heart could be seen beating inside Its
body, and the professor read a news
paper article through its lovely blue
wings. “This,” he said, “is the ptero
poda, a Mediterranean butterfly. It
eats fish. It eats fish. On Its tongue
are rows of pointed hooks. They serve
as teeth. This beautiful ( feature
would turn up its nose at a garden of
roses and lilies, but it would feast
ecstatically upon a putrid eel. Now
and then t pteropoda is found on the
Florida or the California coast. It is
only abundant, though, In the Med
iterranean.”

Lost Pigmies.
A problem which perplexed the last
generation was the long extinct pig
my race which centuries ago un
doubtedly inhabited the Tennessee
mountains. Legends among the In
dians told of such a tribe of dwarfs,
who were supposed to be of more in
telligence than the red men. But
these legends were very hazy. A bury
ing ground, however, actually was
discovered in the early part of the
last century in which all of the skele
tons were of pigmy proportions. Some
of tlrem were carried away to col
lege museums. But as far as known
no scientific inquiry has ever been di
rected to this question.
jreaxvut uanciy.
Two cups of New Orleans molasses.
Two cups of soft A sugar.
One cup of butter.
One saltspoon of salt.
One teaspoon of vanilla.
Six quarts of peanuts.
Put the butter, sugar and molasses
on together, adding the salt after it
comes to a boil. Boil until it forms a
soft ball in cold water, then take
from the stove and beat vigorously
ten minutes. Return to the stove and
boil until a spoon drawn through it
makc-s a slight path. Add the vanilla
and heat again. When beginning to
grow cold, stir in the peanuts and
pour into buttered pans.
