Manufacturing War Relics.
With the approach of the centen
ary celebrations of the famous
Tyrolean light for freedom a new
industry has been created at Tyrol.
Every veteran’s association and rifle
club in the land is preparing some
kind of festival at which historic guns
and flags add other emblems will be
displayed. Unfortunately, these rel
ics have become rather scarce In the
hundred years which have elapsed
since the war, but undaunted by this
trifling circumstance the Ingenuous
peasantry are setting to work to
make their own relics. In this enter
prise they hnve developed remarkable
ingenuity. A new flag is used for
sometime aS a duster, and then after
being carefully smeared over with
grease on both sides is put up in the
garret where the grain is stored. In
a few days the mice have made some
artistic “bullet” holes in the flag,
which is then hung out in the garden.
The sun dotes the rest, and a faded
and tattered flag of really venerable
appearance is the result. The village
blacksmiths-have shown no less clev
erness in making historic cannon, and
there’s no yeason to fear that the
centenary celebrations will suffer
from any lack of relics from the war.

Slight For Elk.
At a country fair out in Kansas a
man went lip to a tent where some
elk were op exhibition, and stared
wistfully up at the sign. “I’d like
to go in there.” he said to the keeper,
j “but it woujd be mean to go In with
out my family, and I cannot afford
to pay for ipy wife and 17 children.”
The keeper stared at him in astonish
'ment. “Are all those your chil
dren?” he gasped. “Every one,” said
the man. “You wait a minute,” said
the keeper.- “I’m going to bring the
elk out and let them see you all.”—

It Pays to Think About Food.
The unthinking life some people
lead often causes trouble and sick
ness, illustrated in the experience of
a lady in Fond Du Lac, Wls.
“About four years ago I suffered
dreadfully from indigestion, always
having eaten whatever I liked, not
thinking of the digestible qualities.
This indigestion caused palpitation of
the heart so badly I could not walk
up a flight of stairs without sitting
down once or twice to regain breath
and strength.
“I became alarmed and tried diet
ing, w’ore my clothes very loose, and
many other remedies, but found no
relief.
“Hearing of the virtues of Grape-
Nuts and Posturn, I commenced using
them in place of my usual breakfast
of coffee, cakes, or hot biscuit, and in
one week’s time I was relieved of
sour stomach and other ills attending
indigestion. In a month’s time my
heart was performing its functions
naturally, and I could climb stairs
and hills and walk long distances.
“I gained ten pounds in this short
time, and my skin became clear and 1
completely regained my health and
strength. I continued to use Grape-
Nuts and Postum, for I feel that I
owe my good health entirely to their
use. “There’s a Reason.”
“I like the de’iclous flavor of
Grape-Nuts, and by making Postum
according to directions it tastes simi
lar to mild high grade coffee.”

THE NEW COIFFURE.
Artificial flowers fascinatingly
adorn the coiffure that more and more
approaches in form that seen in old
paintings and Grecian statues. The
hair is parted on one side and turned
back over a cage into Immense ban
deaux puffing larger on the left side.
The chignon is formed of short small
curls. The frame that supports the
puffed hair is called ‘‘la cage Sorel,”
after the lovely actress whose hair
dressing it copies. It gives a pretty
outline to the bead —light and grace
ful—like the heads of the nymphs
Clodion and Jajou have left ns. Heads
are trimmed with ribbon bands that
hold lightly the puffs, slender laurel
leaves, golden berries and rosettes of
oak leaves with tiny golden acorns.
There are also gold bands and strings
of pearls that wind themselves In the
tresses of hair.—New Haven Register.
QUEENS WHO SMOKE.
No fact in modern social life Is
more striking than that so many of
the Queens of Europe find as much
solace In tobacco as men do. The
striking exception to this rule is
Queen Alexandra, who has never
smoked. In this respect she is differ
ent from her sister, the Dowager Em
press of Russia, for the latter smokes
a good many cigarettes a day.
Another queenly smoker is the
Queen of Rumania, the highly accom
plished Carmen Sylva, whose life, de
voted to art, makes her need of the
soothing power of tobacco as great as
that of any other writer or painter.
The Queen Mother of Spain, as King
Alfonso’s mother is still called, is an
other smoker of cigarettes, as is the
widowed Queen of Portugal, who,
contrary to what might be expected
in a resident of Southern Europe, pre
fers Russian tobacco to any other. —

HELPS FOR STRANDED GRIDS.
To a girl without money or friends
Boston is the most hospitable of our
big cities, says Lucy Green in Worn
i an's Home Companion. She has tried
j them all and she knows. Miss Green,
I who is only seventeen years old, land
| ed at the South station, shabbily
' dressed, with just $5 in her pocket,
j lonely and forlorn, but was cheered
j by the kindness of the station ma
tron, Mrs. Porter, who guided her to
Franklin house. Lucy Green has high
words of praise for this hotel for
I working girls. It Is as far as possible
| removed from the ordinary w’orking
girls’ home; indeed, has many conve
niences, generally lacking in the sec
ond-class hotels, such as drop-lights
in the bedrooms, and private parlors
for the use of the patrons. The food
is good, the rooms large, yet the
board is only ?4 a week.
From there she went to the Young
Women’s Christian Association to
look for work. Here she almost lost
her breath on being offered a position
with the association itself.
In the course of her travels. Miss
Green went to New York, Philadel
phia, Boston and Chicago. She tells
an interesting story. 11 cone’ ision
she says:
‘‘ln conclusion I simply wish to say
that I honestly believe that I look and
act very much like the vast majority
of girls seeking work in large cities.
I believe that I made no greater ap
peal to the sympathies of the charit
ably inclined than other girls do.
Therefore I am justified in claiming
that what I did in all three of these
cities any girl possessed of ordinary
intelligence and a willingness to work
can do find immediate work and
shelter that will lead to better things,
to business and social advancement
;.ud to contentment in the wage earn-
A LITTLE SERMON TO GIRLS.
Each one of us, then, must do these
two things: understand ourselves,
and understand others. It is not
enough to claim the right of the in
dividual to "grow” as he sees fit. It
Is Impertinent to announce that “my
mother Is behind the times.” None
of us can grow rightly IE wo grow
rudely, defiantly, wounding unneces
sarily, falling In kindness and con
sideration. We may sometimes have
to give pain, as when one changes
a Church and so offends a parental
prejudice. But if conviction be
strong, one cannot bo irritable, the
crisis Is too vital, and it is just be
cause we do lack real conviction in
any stand we take that we grow Irri
table in little things. Conviction
makes us serious. It is when wo
have only half thought out some sub
ject for ourselves that we grow irri
table, and prove unequal to the task
of either enlightening those we palu,
or of steering the bark of our cher
ished purposes through distracting
shoals.—Harper’s Bazar.

A BRILLIANT SUNDAY SERMON BY
ADAM MACDONALD REOCH.
Theme: What Is Your Life?
Text: For what is your life? It Is
even a vapor, that appeareth for a lit
tle time, and then vanisheth away.—
James 4:14.
This is an apt metaphor with which
' to represent the brevity and evanes
, cence of life, but it does not tell the
[ whole story.
. ! The cloud which the text speaks of
. I as floating idly in the sky we have im
i prisoned in our machinery and com
j pelled to do mighty things. This ca
'■ I pacity of fleeting vapor for energy
1 and work well represents the capacity
• I of the human spirit for inspiration
• | and service. This constitutes man’s
I i greatest endowment and is the life of
, | every faculty and attainment.
Scripture continually speaks of man
| as a “vessel” or utensil which depends
! j for Its usefulness and worth upon the
! | value of its contents. When noble
■ | Ideals perish our life descends toward
I the level of the brute, just as vapor,
. ; bereft of its heat, turns again to its
i j original liquid form, comparatively
, t without value.
! Life and action carried on in ac
j cordance with true ideals will result
' unfailingly In progress. Too often
: the monotony of life consumes the
. energy which should go toward the
• realization of our ideals, and when
; we stand before the doors of large
opportunities we are overcome with
fear and hesitation.
Man, like the vapor, will never do
his best work except under pressure.
A brook will bable until it meets the
cam, when it begins to turn the grist
mill. Without a sense of responsibil
ity a man will develop no force of
character. We should think of our
responsibilities as opportunities. Life
is most truly described, in the broad
sense, as a great opportunity. That
is the way Jesus looked at it. “Treas
ure hid in a field,” “a pearl of great
price,” “talentsintrusted to servants,"
> these are the similes he used. They
all emphasize the element of opportu
! nity.
Life is, in short, the opportunity to
, find our true self, and until we have
done that we can never hope to find
the true God. If a man gain the
whole world and lose himself it prof
, Iteth nothing, for a man can actually
! and permanently possess nothing ex
cept himself. Is a man entitled to
say “I live,” simply because he eats
1 j and sleeps and is physically well? A
human life is far more complex. The
i | first reed pipe gave forth music, but
! its descendant, the great organ, gives'
! forth completed music ill which t,ha
! other parts are harmonized with the
melody. The complete life is one in
which the religious or spiritual note
gathers into harmony the moral, the
intellectual and the physical elements
in our being, bringing them also into
harmony with God, the source and
1 fountain of life.
Could You Pray?
Coming from Chicago one day be
fore I was a saved man, an eleven
year-old boy made an attempt to
board my train at Hebron and, miss
ing his hold, fell under the cars. A
section man pulled him out and laid
him on the platform. The boy made
a grab for his hat that was just be
yond his reach, and then realized that
his other arm was broken and one
leg gone. He began to beg us to kill
him. They placed him on a stretcher,
and some one ran for his mother, who
i lived just a block away. She came
! running, and as she knelt at his side.
1 j cried;
1 “My God, Frank, Is this you!’’
“Yes, mother,” he replied, "and
| won’t you pray for me?”
Wringing her hands, she sobbed:
|“O Frank, I can’t pray! I don’t know
I how!”
There on her knees, at the side of
her dying boy, she turned to us and
! pleaded for some of us to pray for
him, but we each one had to admit
that we did not know how, and he
died before us without a prayer. I
never shall forget the anguish written
on that poor mother’s face. I do
thank God that I have learned to pray
since that time and to hold up before
the throne of grace not only my own
children, but those of prayerless par
-4 ents about me.
Poor, But Rlcli.
A poor blind woman in Paris put
twenty-seven francs into a plate at
a missionary meeting. “You cannot
afford so much,” said one. “Yes, sir,
I can.” she answered. On being
pressed to explain, she said: “I am
1 blind, and I said to my fellow-straw
workers, ‘How much money do ybu
spend in a year for oil in your lamps
when it is too dark to work nights?’
They replied. ‘Twenty-seven francs.’
“So,” said the poor woman, “I
found that I save so much in the
year because I am blind and do not
need a lamp, and I give it to shed
light to the dark heathen lands.”—
Detroit News-Tribune.
Moral Constitution.
Let a man build up his moral con
stitution by thinking noble thoughts,
derived from the habitual practice of
reading good books, performing no
ble deeds, association with pure wom
en and honorable men. Let a man
walk in the spirit and he will not ful
fill the lusts of the flesh.—Rev. Will
iam C. Stinsman.
Beneficent Power.
No matter how insignificant you
may be, you can exert some beneficent
power over the tide and flow of hu
man passions, and diffuse a calm and
blessed light on those that fall within
vovj environment.—Cardinal James
A Stronger Assurance.
The faith of the heart is a stronger
assurance than all the visions of the
outward sense. When fortune smiles
around me. I may think that I am
happy; when sanctity and love
breathe within me, I know it.
Inspiration of Self.
According to what a man is, is the
j quality and amount of the virtue that
i goes out of him, and he cannot cease
! to impart this peculiar life unless he
| sinks into the lethargy of death.—
Sears.
Rejoice Constantly.
We should not found our praises of
God on things that are far apart in
their occurrence. We should look for
His “wonderful w r orks” in those that
are most constant. The rejoicing that
j is in the Eternal Father should be no
I more suspended than are His boun
| ties.—N. L. Frothingham.
Faith That is Able.
Faith is the being able to cleave to |
a power of goodness, appealing to our j
I higher and real self and not to our |
■ lower and apparent self. —Matthew !
i Arnold.

it and draw royalties.”—Louisville j

BREAKFAST TABLE CROSSNESS.
Of ton breakfast table crossness (to
which few of us are strangers) Is due
to unsanitary sleeping, says The
Housewife. If windows arc down and
the roof is stuffy, one never wakes re
freshed, and bad manners follow. A
famous doctor has declared that less
sleep is needed if one has plenty of
fresh air.
TO REMOVE SPLINTERS.
When a splinter has been driven
Into the hand it can be extracted by
steam. Fill a wide-mouthed bottle
nearly full of hot water, place the
injured part over the mouth of the
bottle and press it slightly. The ac
tion thus produced will draw the flesh
down and In a minute or two the
steam will extract the splinter, also
the Inflammation. —New Haven Reg
ister.
CARE OF THE BED.
In an article on the care of the
house in the Ladles’ World we read
the following in regard to the care
of the bedroom: The bedstead needs
cleaning weekly. Top, bottom, back
and front must be gone ever with a
damp cloth, or perhaps a sponge wet
in benzine. If any trace of the cimex
(the objectionable insect) is found,
use the very best alcohol generously.
This not only kills those that are
alive, but destroys the eggs and
cleans mattress and bed.
GAS RANGE HINTS.
Everyone uses gas ranges now
adays. Here is a suggestion, “true
and tried:” Get the tinsmith to cut
you a sheet of Russian iron the size
of the top of your stove, with pieces
one inch wide and two inches long
at each corner. Bend them to form
legs. Now let him cut a number of
holes In the sheet the size of a dime.
After your pots begin to boil slip on
the sheet ever the burners, turn down
flame, set pots on. Good-by to burnt
food, as is often the case when the
flame is direct on the bottom of ves
sels, no matter how low the flame is.
—New Haven Register.
EASILY MADE WINDOW SEAT.
Get a packing box two and one
half feet high and four feet long;
screw casters on the four corners of
the bottom, then put hinges on the
cover to fasten to box; next cover
top with an old comforter, tacking it
on securely around the edges; then
cover tip witji a pretty cretonne;
cut same kind of cretonne the depth
of box from top to floor and box-pleat
it on all around the box with brass
tacks, leaving a short rufile standing
up above the opening of the box.
This will be found a very convenient
place to keep light summer gowns or
waists that you do not want crushed,
and can be kept in any room. The
inside the box should be covered
with white paper pasted smoothly
on.—Boston Post.

Self-Criticism,
This story is not actually vouched
for as true, but—
A little while ago Jones managed
to get a splendid record of his own
parrot’s cries on a cylinder.
Byway of experiment he set it
going while the parrot was in the
room.
“Pretty Polly! Scratch a poll!
Give ns a bit of sugar, uncle! Whe-e”
whirred the machine.
The parrot looked somewhat
scared, and tried to scratch her head
with one of her claws.
T want some sugar! some sugar!
Whe-e!” came from the gramophone.
“Great Scot!” screeched Polly, as
she looked down at the trumpet.
“What a beak for sweet stuff!”—Tit-
Bits.
True to Training.
Generous Lady—“ Here, little boy.
I know you are hungry for a box of
these animal crackers.”
Boy—“ Much obliged, lady; but my
folks are vegetarians.”—Judge.
It is related that when Robert
Louis Stevenson was told of the death
of Matthew Arnold he paused, and
then r-„iid, dubiously.; “He won’t like

NOT EASILY SUITED.
’Tis hard to suit the gentler sex—
And even compliments may vex.
A pastor said, with purpose clear,
The sex was made to love, not fear.
This hath a pleasant sound, and yet
He’s roasted by a suit race t!
—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
MONEY AND THE LADY.
Checkers—“ Years ago I had money
to burn and I burnt It!”
Neckera—“How?”
Checkers—“On an old flame of
mine! ” —Llppincott’s.
PRACTICALLY NONE.
"Any gambling going on in this
town now?” asked the customer who
had just bought a plug of tobacco.
“Not a bit; the lid’s shut down
tight,” answered the customer who
was shaking dice for the cigars.—
Chicago Tribune.
METER. '
Teacher—“ What does the word
‘meter’ mean, Harold?”
Harold—“A measure.”
Teacher—“ What do they measure
with It?”
Harold —“Gas, electricity, water
and poetry.”—Chicago Daily News.
WELFARE WORK.
“Why don’t you learn to twirl your
cane with your left hand as well as
with your right?”
“Why should I?” demanded the
gilded youth.
"Suppose you should injure your
right hand?”—Kansas City Journal.
NOT DISCOVERED YET,
Bacon—"l see there are still 20,*
000,000 miles of territory on this
globe which have not been explored."
Egbert—“ Yes, and on some of this
territory possibly are many of the
‘big paying’ gold and silver mines we
see advertised.” —Yonkers Statesman.
NOT VERY NEIGHBORLIKE.
Dugald—“ Yon was not a verra nel
borlike thing to be doin’, Angus,
i when you was tellin’ the whole toon
i that I was drunk aal the week that
we was in Glascow.”
Angus—“l never said no sich wood
I oot o’ my lips, Dugald Mackay. Aal
j I said was that you was perfect sober
I on the Sabbath day!”—London Opin
ion.
THE CHRISTENING.
"And the name Is to be?” asked
the suave minister, as he approached
the font with the precious armful of
fat and flounces.
"Augustus Philip Ferdinand Cod
rington Chesterfield Livingstone
Snooks,”
“Dear me!” (turning to the sex
i ton). “A little more water, Mr. Per
kins, if you please.”—Tit-Bits.
SOMETHING TO REGRET.
“Are you happier now that you
j own your own home?” asked the
| solicitous friend.
i “Of course,” answered Mr. Meek
ton, “there is a proud satisfaction in
1 having my own place. But occasion
: ally I can’t help longing for the time
| when my wife kicked to the land
lord for repairs instead of coming to
me.”—Washington Star.
GREAT WORK.
"What was the best job you ever
did?” inquired the first barber.
“I once shaved a man,” replied the
second barber. “Then I persuaded
him to have a hair cut, shampoo, fac
i ial massage, singe, seafoam, electric
t buzz, tar spray and tonic rub.”
“What then?”
I “By that time he needed another
shave.” Louisville Courier-Jour
nal.
MIXED EMOTIONS.
“I hear you are accused of plagiar
| ism.”
“Sure,” replied the author, jubi
lantly, “and they’ve proved the case.
That boosts me right into the Shakes
peare class.”
“But if that’s so, Jack London is
in the same class.”
The author’s face fell with a thud.
“The upstart!” he muttered. —Phila-
delphia Ledger.
LUCKY TO THE VERY LAST.
Cook —“Taylor was always a for
tunate man, but doesn’t it seem won
derful that his luck should stay with
him to the very last?”
Raleigh—“ How was that?”
Cook—“He was operated on for
the removal of a pearl which he had
accidentally swallowed while eating
oysters, and when the pearl was ex
amined it was found to be valuable
enough to pay for both the operation
and the funeral.”—Tit Bits.
A FISH STORY.
"Boom” went a gun of the British
cruiser, and the American fishing
schooner hove to.
“What’s the matter with you?”
megaphoned the indignant skipper,
eyeing the rent in his topsail.
“No hard feelings,” responded the
captain of the cruiser, “but you Yan
kees have been telling some tall fish
stories, and we can’t get a bite. Send
over a, mess.”
Thus was closed, most pleasingly,
another international episode.—Phil
adelphia Ledger.
His Answer.
Pat, who was noted for a quick
tongue, was digging potatoes when
the parish priest came by. Byway
of a pleasant salutation the priest
said:
“Good morning to ye, Pat, and
what kind of p’ratatoes are ye dig
ging?”
“Raw ones, your riv’rince.”
“Och, ye’re so smart. I’ll just give
ye a question on the catechism. What
is baptism?”
“It used to be four shillin’s be
fore ye came, but now it’s twenty
shillin’s.”—The Circle.
The Exiles Club.
A meeting of people who do not

Said recently; "When you feel down and
out, feel there is no use living, just take
your bad thoughts with you and walk them
off. Before you have walked a mile things
will look rosier. Just try it.” Ilave you
noticed the increase in walking of late in
every community? Many attribute it to
the comfort which Allen’s Foot-Ease, the
