A PLEA FOR "DANGER.
Thin Writer Argues That Too Much
Safety May Breed Weaklings.
In these days of the placarding of
first" and the juxtaposition of
and sane," is a voice necessarily
that of a madman if it be heard in the
land singing the praises of danger and
risk? With all our laws and move
ments and committees for the elimina
tion from our daily life of all chances
unfavorable to life, limb, health and
property are we in no danger of saving
the body at the expense of the spirit?
Too great security breeds weaklings,
and too nervous a regard for physical
afety is not only craven but ultimate
ly unwise. Our nation, if it is to be
jgreat and free, must set high value on
the courage, resourcefulness and high
spirit of the individual citizen. Now,
courage is nourished on dangers coped
With, and the prudent soul that always
""plays safe" cannot be called high or
noble. Our evolution up to this point
has always been conditioned by the
need of self preservation In the face
of innumerable enveloping dangers.
The creature that hesitated to take
chances or always avoided threatened
Injury soon ceased to exist, either as
epecies or Individual.
Hence our bodies, our minds, our
very spirits have been evolved, in part
at least, to fulfill this function of cop
ing with some kind of danger. For
what purpose our eyes, our ears, our
nerves, our muscles, our sense of right
and wrong? A removal, then, from
our environment of this element of
danger tends to bo followed by de
generacy and atrophy in ail parts of
our natures. v Indeed, in modern life
xve are prone to become stall fed in
body and spirit This we tacitly con
fess in our passion for sport, which is
essentially mimic hunting or war and
for the vicarious adventure of roman
.tic fiction.—Scribner's.
MARBLES OF VERMONT.
They Surpass the Product of Italy's
Famous Quarries.
The greatest marble producing indus
try in the world is no longer to be
found in the famous Carrara district
Of Italy, but in Vermont, where one ol
the richest veins iu the world stretches
Jn an irregular line across the state.
So great is the production of marble
In this section that the inhabitant?
shave lost much of their appreciation
cf its value and use it for such humble
and utilitarian purposes as paving, un
ierpinnlng for barns, hitching posts,
stepping stones and drinking troughs
for horses. This vein is about fifty
seven miles long, from 1,600 to 2,200
feet in width and runs from 375 to
850 feet in depth, and from it is being
taken in enormous quantities white i
marble that is equal to the finest Ital
fan marble as well as an endless va
riety of blue, yellow, green and Jet j
i black marbles.
For quarrying and finishing the mar
• IWe the most up to date methods and
equipment are used, no part of the
work being done by hand that can
possibly be done by machinery. Hand
methods of drilling, still in vogue in
Italy, have been entirely superseded
by power driven drills and channeling
machines. The blocks as they come
from the quarry are handled by der
ricks and are conveyed in most case*
by an inclined railway or a ropeway
to the mills, where they are sawed and i
* shaped by power driven machines, only
the last delicate stage of polishing
being done by hand.—Popular Me
chanics Magazine,
Song and Addition.
If soldiers be encouraged by the au
thorities to sing on the march civil
servants might be exhorted to lighten
their duties in the same way. Sir Lau
rence Gonimo confesses that at the be
ginning of his official career he used
to add up huge columns of figures for
statistical purposes by the simple proc
ess of doing the tusk to the tunc of
Gregorian music, and he was always
correct in his arithmetical results. Ex
amples of the practice of performing
labor tasks to the accompaniment of
?music could, Sir Laurence says, be pro
duced from all over the world. He in
•sianees the case of the London pavers
who until forty years ago or so used
to be mulcted by their mates of the
price of a pot of ale if they omitted to
groan rythmicaily at each thud of the
ram.—London Standard.
The Drummer.
"I sometimes think." remarked the
regular patron, "that the snare drum-
should be the best musician is
■'the theater orchestra."
"He usually is." sul the drummer.—
Tribune.
WORRY.
Do not worry; eat three square
meals a day; say your prayers; be
courteous to your creditors; keep
your digestion good; exercise; go
slow and go easy. Maybe there
are other things that your special
case requires to make you happy,
but, my friend, these I reckon will
give you a good lift. —Abraham
Lincoln.
Ho Wanted to Know.
"Didn't you say," demanded the
young man of the captain, "that this
ship was equipped with all appliances
for human safety?"
"I did."
"Then how does it happen that 1
now find myself engaged to a lady 1
did not know when the vessel left her
pier?"— Judge.
Don Spooks.
The p'l'lTlNiHi il'" TIN oti of
the hardest of' o.U Lagiisli suporsii
tions. Almost every county had its
black dog which haunted its lonely
spots and was the dread of every ua
tive. Most cf them were regarded as
devils, but some were held to be the
spirits of human beings, transfornieil
thus as a punishment. Lady Howard,
a Devon notable of the days of James
1., for instance, was said to be com
pelled to haunt Okehampton in the
form of a dog as a punishment for her
cruelty to her daughter.
His Gift.
"They say he gets $25 for his speech
es!" "Yep. He's pecuniarily gifted."—
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
A Doleful Mood.
The proprietor of a Paris cafe no
ticed that after he had refused to give
his pianist an increase of salary the
number of his customers dwindled
rapidly. It was only when all but
one diner had deserted him that be
discovered that the pianist had been
inflicting Chopin's- "Funeral March"
on the audience nightly. The pianist,
who was proceeded against In the low
oourta and was fined 5 francs, pleaded
that he pl-'i;.ed according to the mood

Handling Coins.
Coin handling mac hines have reached
such a degree of perfection that a ma
chine will take a bucketful of coins of
all denominations, sort them out. pick
out all the mutilated pieces and reject
them, do all the others up in neat
bundles of standard sizes—such as
twenty-five penn in a bundle —count
them, add them all up together, and
hand out a slip of paper on which is
printed the total sum in dollars and
cent 3. An electee motor turns the
crank that does the work.
Cremation in Norway.
There is in Norway a law dealim
with cremation. According to the act
every person over fifteen years of ag(
can be cremated after death if he oi
she has made a declaration in the pres
ence of two witnesses. For those un
der fifteen a declaration on the part of
the parents is necessary.—London
Standard.
GOOD HABITS.
Good habits bring a personal
freedom that it is impossible to ob
tain otherwise. The man who has
the habit of doing anything that
he ought to do with clocklike reg
ularity is saved from a galling
bondage of uncertainty, hesitation,
energy wasting debate with him
self, renewed day after day and
growing more of a burden as life
advances.
Got All He Asked For.
Another "meanest man" has been j (
found. He lives in the city and con-j
duets a thriving business. The otbe: ,
day a seedy individual approached him
and said: "Say. mister. I'm hungry and
would like to get a nickel to get a cup
of coffee and a roll. 1 have four pen
nies and only need one more. Please
give me a penny."
The man after searching himself
9aid: "I haven't got a penny. All J
have is a nickel. Give me your four
cents in change, and 1 will give you
the nickel.**
