Mr. Woodson It looks like enow

Mr. Pippin What are you talktn
about, man? Why, It's already half
a foot thick on the ground.
Mr. Woodson Yes, and I say It
looks like snow! It never does In

March of Infantry and Cavalry.
The military march muBt be taken
as the best Index of the horse ca
pacity, conditioned by the needs of re
maining effective. Under fair to good
conditions cavalry are expected to ac
complish from thirty to thirty-eight
miles a day for several days In suc
cession, but taking the campaign as a
whole, the dally average Is not ex
pected to exceed fourteen to fifteen
miles. This is the practical limit of
infantry on the march; thus the two
arms of the service remain together
on the route.
Bullocks In English Church.
At Emmanuel church, Nottingham,
England, considerable excitement was
caused among the congregation one
Sunday by two bullocks entering while
the vicar was preaching his sermon.
The animals had strayed from their
quarters, and, finding the door open,
walked in. They went into the bap
tistry, but the verger, attracted by the
commotion, got in front of the animals,
and by gentle and tactful persuasion,
drove them out without any damage
being done or panic caused.
Have Good Appetite.
The six elephant seals at the Aquari
um consumed in the last month about
a ton of food; to be exact, 7,951
pounds of codfish, herring and weak
fish, or approximately ten pounds and
a half for each dally. As might be
expected of creatures with such appe
tites, the elephant seals are thriving
and growing. New York Sun.
Hard Luck.

Joe "Hard luck, bah Jove. Been go

ocle?" Arthur "No. Called on Hen
ery at his house, and that wretched
dog of his persisted in wagging his
tall and creating a draught. TIt-Blts.
A Guess From Habit.
A man should not decide that a girl
Is a gossip because she tells him
"something funny" Marguerite or
Edith' Bald. Women have the same
right to discuss and criticize other
women that men have; and they do
not exercise It any more freely.
He Must.
And very often youth must be
served first if you want to have any

Really Good Manners.
What then are good manners? Sim
ply a fine and always thoughtful con
sideration for the feelings and com
fort of others; polite and kindly ad
dress to "Inferiors" as to equals or
"superiors;" graclousness, which Is
also graee, under all circumstances;
and with women especially, no matter
whether In, drawing room or office,
that "low, soft voice," which Shakes
peare declares to be "an excellent
thing In women."
Pawn Tombs of Relatives.
In times of financial difficulties the
Loochooans, residents of the south'
western Islands of Japan, sometime?
pawn the graves of their relatives,
They are always redeemed, however,
failure to do bo meaning family dis
grace. The turtle-back shaped tombs,
usually located on a hillside facing
the water, are elaborate affairs of
stone and cement, and their cost and
upkeep often bankrupt the family.
Chinese Salutation,
The Chinese salutation consists of
clasping the left hand with the right
and waving it up and down, at the
same time bowing deeply; or, If un
usual respect is wished to be evinced,
the Chinaman bows as low as Is possi
ble, swinging his clasped hands back
wards and forwards.
Patron of Poetry.
B. H. Warner, a prominent business
man of the national capital, is very
fond of poets and their work. When
ever he comes across a poem which
strikes him as particularly good he
bus several hundred copies made of It,
and distributes them to his friends.

The Straight And Narrow Path
Is Never Overcrowded.
An epigram that finds its parallel in business. There are stores
and stores and stores. Stores differ in policies and methods the same
as in anything else. There are several methods, however, that we find

Here They Are.
Allow no customers to remain dissatisfied if it's possible to please
them. Allow no other merchant to surpass you in giving the best val
ues for the money. Allow no petty spites, grievances, political, or fra
ternal ideas to warp your judgment and service to the public. Allow
no imposition to be practiced either on yourself or on your trade. Al
low no personal opinions, ideas, or notions to creep into business that
are detrimental to public confidence. Be fair, be square, be honest and
on the level. "There, you have it."

A BIG DIFFERENCE.

Dix No; she is what they call a

"Te Deum" a Hymn of the Ages.
Hallowed bv old association and
fraught with many memories are the
great church hymns like the "Te
Deura." which for more than a thou
sand years has been the song of
Christendom. It was chanted at the
baptism of Clovis and sung at the
jubilee of Queen Victoria. It was sang
also after Aglncourt and Waterloo,
and on all solemn occasions when the
heart of the people had been moved
to ttuuksglvlng for victory on land or
sea.
Most Primitive Race of People.
'Asa modern example of an abso
lutely primitive race of people Prof
W. V0I2 of Breslau university, has
brought to notice the KubuB, who ar
completely isolated In the forest in
terior of Sumatra. They share the
life and habits or the apes living in
the same forest. :They do not seem
to have advanced even to the hunting
stage of development, and are not
known to have any ideas of religion
Macedonia Rich in Minerals.
Since remote times the soil of Mace
donla has had the reputation of con
talnlng many precious minerals. No'
only was this stated by historians
but It Is evident by the remains oi
great works undertaken by the an
cients in the mining centers, ant
especially on the Peninsula of Clinlcl
dice. These works reached the hlRh
est point of development under Phlilj
of Macedonia and Alexander the Great
Sport of the Antipodes.
A favorite sport in New Zealand, ai
also In Australia and Tasmania, li
competition in wood chopping an
sawing; and in these contests, whlcl
attract a great deal of Interest, th
championships are always won througt
the use of American tools. In fac
the expert woodsman working for I
prize would never think of using an
other kind of tools.
Woman's Mistake.
A woman sent to the consclenci
fund $3.70 she believes she owes foi
duty on 37 yards of Irish lace boughl
from an Italian peddler, who declar
ed he had smuggled it and, therefore
was able to sell It to her at 20 centi
a yard. Conscience is a strange thing
The poor woman, if she only knew it
owes herself money. New York

Yokohama's Fire Department.
Yokohama's fire-fighting apparatu
is owned by the association of lnsur
ance companies, which also pays the
firemen. The coolies who assist whec
a blaze calls out any part of the de
partment receive on an average four
cents per hour. The regular Btaft of
firemen and watchmen are paid an av
erage of $7.47 a month.
Misconception Corrected.
A good many mistakes arise from
misapprehension. For Instance, a den
tist advertises that lie will extract
teeth without pain. You suppose he
means the patient will not experience
pain. That Is a wrong conclusion. It
is the dentist who feels no pain.
A Bit Hot, but Loyal.
A girl went to India, and at the
first New Year's away from home she
wrote to her devout mother: "It Is
now very hot and I perspire a great
deal, but you will be pleased to hear
that I am still a mem'Jr of the
Church of England."

Not Final Farewell.
Lady Mary Wortley Montague once
wrote a letter to her lover (whom she
afterward married), concluding In the
following manner: "There Is no con
dition of life I could not have been
happy In with you, so very much I
liked you I may say loved since it
is the laBt thing I'll ever say to you.
This Is telling you sincerely my great
est awakens, and now I will oblige you
with a new proof of my generosity.
I'll never see you more!"
For Good or for Evil?
So surely as the day and the night
alternately follow one another, does
every day when It yields to darkness,
anS every night when it passes Into
dawn, bear with it its own tale of the
results which It has silently wrought
upon each of us, for good or for evil.
William Ewart Gladstone,
Geniuses Not Good Companions,
The wife of Charles Dickens is re
ported to have once Bald: "1 suppose
the world needs a few geniuses, but
It's a dreadful fate to have to live with
one of them." Mrs. Carlyle said the
same thing in substance a great many
times.
On Life's Journey,
We are not made to be good In this
world, but to try to be, and fail and
keep on trying; and when we get a
cake to say, "Thank God!" and when
we get a buffet to say, "Just bo; well
