Sometimes tho hest way to work is
to tako a few hours of relaxation bp
fore plunging into troublesome duties
It is Impossible to rest unless there
are quiet and calm in tho mind and
ipeaco In ono's heart nnd soul.
A trouhlo worried brain disturbs
'the entlro physical forces, making one
ilncapablo of work or ono's best of
forts.
Thoro Is a great difference between
Ithe naturally lazy person and one who
'knows tho need of rest. Ono cannot

ifor otherwlso there is no contrast. It's
like eating when one Isn't hungry. No

"You say that you icfusc to bcllevo
the sworn testimony of this man?"
asked tho examining barrister.
"That is so," replied tho witness.
"What reasons have jou?"
"Why, I know the man! He hates
to tell the truth It's absolutely for
eign to his nature. He and I wero at
tho same school, and ho used to cry
bitterly when the teacher made him
repeat that two and two made four."
"Have you any further reminis

Draining Desert Lands.
One of the curiosities of irrigation Is
that it is sometimes necessary to drain
such lands. When the lands are situ
ated on a comparatively level, tho
water from tho irrigation ditch abovo
seeps along tho lino betwen the rock
formation and in many cases accumu
lates In such an amount that it actual
ly becomes swampy. Then It has to
be drained, just as in the case of the
tho south. It seems strange to wit
ness tho laying of a drainage system
In an arid country, but it has been
done a great many times. The aver
ago user of irrigation who fails may
trace his lack of success to tho too
liberal use of water. Instead of water
ing he 'eally drowns his crons.

Nettles as Substitute for Cotton.
The search for a cotton substitute
has been going on in Europe for a
long tlmo, and many experiments
have been made with tho common net
tle, which has been a promising plant
on account of tho strength of Its fiber
and Its ready growth wild under tho
most discouraging conditions, with a
largo yield per acre. Tho great diffi
culty has been in separating tho fiber
from the woody stem. In a method
of treatment that has been worked out
in tho last two or three years, the
dried nettle sTems aro boiled about
half an hour In dilute soda lye, and
tho loosened fibers aro then separated
in a machine with revolving brushes.
Tho material Is thon subjected to a
number of alternate boilings in diluto
lye and thorough washings, both un
der high pressure. Tho product Is a
mass of yellowish fibers, freo from
gum, that can bo bleached, combed,
and spun into lustrous white yarn.
This Is claimed to have tho smooth
ness and softness of flax, with a
strength oven greater than that of
hemp. Tho yarn has been made into
brilliant damask, and can be used
alono or with other threads for up
holsteries, ribbons, and a variety of
fabrics.

Leap Year
by Proxy
(CoDjrlght, ion. by Assocltttod Literary Pees)
"I'm never going to get married,"
said Kitty to hor Aunt Katherlno."
Aunt Knthorlno, who was vory
tall and beautiful, and who was al
ways dressed in sweeping black
cowns, looked at Kitty Bovoroly
through hor gold lorgnette.
"And you aro 20?" sho asked.
"Men aren't worth bothering
over," said Kitty. "Now, there's Rod
ney Hodgo. Ho's tho only man who
will be at tho danco tonight who is
roally worth while, yet I wouldn't bo
afraid to say that ho'U novor pro
poso." Aunt Kutherlno lighted tho candles
over tho fireplace. It was ono of her
fads to spend tho evening by candle
light. Electricity was for tho mob,
she said.
"Why should you care?" Bhe asked,
"what Rodney Hodgo does? You aro
not in love with him, aro you?"
Kitty composed herself. Well, you
see, I could bo In love with him," sho
said Bagely, if ho were not such a
clam. "He's so so fine, Aunt Kath
erine." "Yes, ho Is fine," Bald tho older
woman.
Kitty's little face was very grave
now, and her little band was laid in
earnestness on Miss Severance's knee.
"And so," Aunt Katherlno finished
for her, as she took the little hand
In her firm clasp, "and so, my llttlo
Kitty,- If you wero 'a man and Rodnoy
Hodgo wero a girl, you would ask
Rodney to marry you?"
"Yes," Kitty whispered.
"Then why not ask him any
how?" said Aunt Katherine.
Kitty gave her a startled glance.
"Why Aunt Katherine " sho stam
mered, "you don't mean "
"It's leap year."
"Oh, I knew you were Joking."
Kitty's voice had a note of relief
In it.
Sho changed the subject after that,
and Kitty went off to her leap year
dance happily.
Miss Severance sat long by the Are,
then sho picked up the receiver of
the telephone and gave a number.
When the answer came, she said: v"Is
that you, Bronson? ThlB Is Kather
ine Severance. I want to ask you to
come and see me. Yes, tonight.
Yes it's Important. You will? It's
very good of you. At nine, thon?"
Sho paced the room restlessly, as
she waited, and when her caller came,
a gray-haired, stately man, she wel
comed him with a laugh that was
slightly nervous.
"It's about Kitty," she said. Sho
was seated in a high-backed f,halr
which gave her a queenly dignity. "I
I want to make a sort of leap year
proposal by proxy, BronBon."
He looked at her keenly. "You
mean Rodney?" he asked.
"Yes. Kitty likes him and I think
he loves her. He did years ago. But
but ho haBn't asked her to marry
him."
"And he will not!" sternly.
"Why not?"
"He shall not Buffer as I have suf
fered," was the quiet answer. "You
know how I staked all my happiness,
Katherine, on your answer years ago,
and you know, too, that I lost. I will
not have my boy hurt In a like
fashion."
"Kitty is sweeter than I," said
Miss Severance, "and I think she
cares."
"No ono could be sweeter than you
were," the old man turned on hor
fiercely, "until1 you learned to break
men's hearts.'
"And to break my own," said
Katherine Severance.
Out of a deep silence he asked:
"Then you, too, have suffered?"
"Yes. Do you remember a leap
year danco and a girl all in white,
with silver slippers' and a rose in her
hair?"
"You," ho breathed.
"And she made up her mind that
she would tell the man whom bnco she
had spurned that she had changed
and and that ho was the only man
u.ihe. 'eorld-fer her. " Bjtf .gh& IWfiS
WOMEN
Women of the highest type, women of
superior education and refinement, whose
discernment and judgment give weight and
force to their opinions, highly praise the won
derful corrective and curative properties of
Chamberlain's Stomach and liver Tablets
Throughout the many stages of woman's life, from
girlhood, through the ordeals of motherhood to the
declining years, there is no safer or more reliable
medicine for stomach troubles and constipation.

Bho was a woman and a woman can

"Katherlno," ho said, and his volco
broke; "dear girl, if you had spoken,
how much of happiness lite would
havo held for us."
And tonight whon Kitty wont to
hor leap year danco, all tho past
rolled back on mo and I wanted hor
to bo happy with a man llko you.
It is too lato now for us but suroly

Ho laughed llko a boy. "Too lato?
Wlfy, how old aro you, Knthorlno?"
"Forty."
"And I am fifty-two. And wo'ro
young, dearest. And the world Is be

Rodney aro tho only ones in the
world who can live and lovo?"
Ho took her hands masterfully in
hlo. "Look at mo, Kate," ho said,
"nnd tell me If you want to leavo
ull tho happiness to Kitty?"
That night when Kitty camo homo

"No," said Aunt Kato, mysteri

WHY MAN EXCELS AT GOLF
Woman Lacks the Actlvo Physical
Training Which Her Brother
-Gets In 'Boyhood.
If you wero asked why men play
better golf than women your answer
probably would be: because men are
stronger than women. And that
would bo the truth, but only part of It.
Possibly the difference in tho effec
tiveness of the woman's and tho man's
, game can, aB somo people claim, be
traced directly to tho length of the
shot, but the more ono Investigates
the more he is led to qualify this con
clusion. It becomes, on the whole,
less reasonable to credit solely to
muscular advantage the eight to nine
1 strokes which, roughly, measure tho
handicap due from a man to a woman.
In other words, If a man nnd a wom
an should happen to havo an equal
supply of strength and endurance, It
seems that the man would turn out to
, be tho better golfer. That is tho ques
tion. I In tho first place, men havo far
greater game experience. Thoy begin
to play bat and ball games at an ear
lier age and thereby develop more
thoroughly the "feel" of clubs and the
fine eye that is necessary for success
in such games. There are all sorts
of games that boys amuse themselves
! with from their earliest youth which
give them eye. And when they take
a golf club In their hands for the first
time the essential act of concentrating
their vision on tho object to be struck
Is not a novelty. It Is second nature.
j With a girl It is different. She has
not dally played games that developed
,her eye, such as marbles, "scrub,"
hockey, snowballing and target prac
tice, games that are the constant avo
cations of bipeds who practice the
profession of being boys. And yet rne
of the greatest of women golfers as
sures mo that women havo shown In
tournaments more concentration of
the eye than men and that only last
fall this fact was proved. It appearB
that a computation was made both at
the men's championship and the wom
en's which proved that the women
missed their drives lesB often than tho
men. Charles Aldon Seltzer In the
Outing Magazine.
First Rook to Talk.
In New street, Horsham, England,
says a writer in tho May Strand, there
is to be seen tho very exceptional and
interesting spectacle of a talking rook.
The bird Is the property of two school
children, a little girl and boy, who
caught it five years ago, when it was
quite a baby, In a local rookery. It Is
of the gentler sex, and occupies a
small pen in a tiny back garden. No
attempt has ever been made to teach
the rook to talk, and yet she has a
vocabulary of close upon 100 simplo
words. She is often allowed out in
the garden, for, although she can fly
swiftly and strongly, she can be trust
ed not to make her escape. It is said
. that this Is the first Instance of a rook
developing tho power to talk.
