THE ENCAMPMENT. The Patriot does not feel like criticizing the Indiana Chamber of Commerce because it is not more active in its endeavors to se cure the next encampment of the N. G. P. for this town, as long as we know that the business men are spending most of their time to matters pertaining to the develop ment of the commercial and indus trial standing of the community. The town of Ebensburg, over in Cambria county, is making a hard fight for the encampment and there are already indications that the Cambria county seat will grab it from us. The Patriot would like to see Indiana land the en campment, but we repeat that we cannot criticize the local business men for sticking to purely busi ness matters. EXPAROING THE CHEST. Propf Attitud* to Aistimo During Broathing Exorciooa. It has been the popular belief that when exercising certain arm move ments during inspiration, such as hold ing the arms up, expand the chest and enable it to take in more air. Ac cording to Dr. James Frederick Rogers la an article in the Medical Journal, tbis is not the proper thing to do. He tested fifty persons of both sexes, ranging from sixteen to forty years of age, measuring carefully the quantity of air inspired when elevating the arms, as usually taught and when standing still with the arms hanging loose. He found that in no single case did the arm movements increase the quantity of air inspired, but in many they actually decreased it. He also found that standing naturally is more conducive to deep breathing than ly ing flat or hanging by the hands. "The raising of the arms," he writes, "does apparently increase the measure ments of the upper parts of the chest, but the increase is due to the change in the position of the muscles in this region and to their contraction of stretching, which causes them to stand out from the thorax. For the muscles which lift the arms forward or side ward or upward have nothing to do with the lifting of the ribs, and conse quent lj* no special effect upon the depth of inspiration. "With very deep inspiration there is a drawing backward of the bead and a straightening of the thoracic spine. In other words, the assuming of a very erect posture and. If any exercises are to be carried out as aids to deep in take of air. it seems that the drawing backward of the chin and the assump tion of the most erect standing or sit ting posture would be most useful as an aid or accompaniment of deep breathing." DESERTED VESSELS. Mysterious Wanderers Mariners at Times May Meet at Sea. At least once in my life I have had the good fortune to board a deserted i vessel at sea. I say "good fortune" because it has left me the memory of a singular impression. I have felt a ghost of the same thing two or three times since then when peeping through the doorway of an abandoned house, writes Wilbur Daniel Steele in Har per's Magazine. No w, that vessel was not dead. She was a good vessel, a sound vessel, even : a handsome vessel, in her blunt browed, < coastwise way. She sailed under four lowers across as blue and glittering a I sea as I have ever known, and there was not a point in bur sailing that one could lay a l'ncc:- upon as wrong. And yet passing that - mer at two miles one knew soinoho m.r no hand was {on her wheel. Su.nt*ihues' 1 can imag ine a vessel stricken like that moving over the empty spaces of the sea carry ing it off quite well were it for for that indefinable suggestion of a stagger, and I can think of all those ocean gods, in whom no landsman will ever believe, looking at one another and tapping their foreheads with just the shadow of a smile. I wonder if they all scream—these ships that have lost their souls? Mine screamed. We heard her voice like nothing I have ever heard before, when we rowed under her counter to read her name—the Marionette it was of Halifax. I remember how it made me shiver, there in the full blaze of the sun, to hear her going on so, railing and screaming in that stark fashion. And I remember, too, how our footsteps, pattering through the vacant internals in search of that haggard utterance, made me think of the footsteps of hurrying warders roused in the night And we found a parrot in a cage; that was all. It wanted water. We gave it water and went away to look things over, keeping pretty close to gether, all of us. In the quarters the table was set for four. Two men had begun to eat by the evidence of the plates. Nowhere in the vessel was there any sign of disorder, except one sea chest broken out, evidently In haste. Her papers were gone, and the stern davits were empty. That is how the case stood that day, and that is how it stood to this. I saw this same Marionette a week later, tied up in a Hoboken dock, where she awaited news from her owners. But even there, in the midst of all the water front bustle, I could not get rid of the feeling that she was still very far away—in a sort of shippish other world. The thing happens now and then. Sometimes half a dozen years will go by without a solitary wanderer of this sort crossing the ocean paths, and then in a single season perhaps several of them will turn up, vacant waifs, im passive and mysterious. Clever. Fond Mother—lmprovise? Why, mj daughter can improvise any piece oi music put before her!— Judge. The River Tigris. The river Tigris appears in the book of Genesis as Hiddekel. one of the four "heads" into which the river of Eden was parted. The name by which we know it does not exactly "mean" tiger, for the correct way of putting it is that both "tiger" and "Tigris" mean in Persian swift as an arrow. "Euphrates' is a Greek version of the Persian Hu- j frat. which signifies "the good abound ing" and represents the old Asiatic Bu rat or Furat. akin to our verb "pour." Long Lived Tennysons. The Tennyson family was noted for its longevity. Miss Matilda Tennyson died in her ninety-ninth year: Charles was seventy-one at the time of his i death; Mary, seventy-four; Emilia, sev 1 enty-eight; Alfred, poet laureate, eigh- j ty-tbree: Frederick, ninety-one; Arthur, eighty-five; Horatio, eighty, and Ce- i cilia, ninety-two. In Sympathy. The two men had met at & dinner party and were talking la a corner by themselves. "You see that tall woman with the sharp nose and the critical eye?" ask ed one of them. "Yes," said the other quietly. "Well, I"ve watched her for quite awhile. She's always got her nose Into somebody's business. She's the last woman I'd marry." "Which shows how strangely in sym pathy we are." said the other without resentment "She's the last woman J did marry"—Exchange. The Lacking Stroke. "Do you think it would improve my style," inquired the varsity man who had got Into the crew through favor itism. "if I were to acquire a faster stroke?" "It would improve the crew," replied the candid trainer, "if you got a para lytic stroke."—Landon-TL:-Bins. Easily Arranged. A man took the following telegram to a telegraph office: "Mrs Brown '"enter Street: 1 announce with grief the death of Uncle James. Come luicfcly to read the will. I believe we are his heirs. John Black " The telegraph clerk, having counted r he words, said. "There are two words too many, sir" "Cut out 'with grief,'" was the re ply.—Chicago News. Wanted— Girl for general housework.

Legend tells of a Hindu fakir who seemeyl to hare a working knowledge of practical psychology and made him self rich selling plain wicker baskets in the streets of Calcutta. The peculiar virtue of the baskets, he explained to the buyers, lay in the fact that if one filled his basket with ordi nary pebbles, placed himself in a re ceptive attitude of mind and stirred them with a 6tick for an hour, each and every pebble would be transmitted into a nugget of gold—provided the stirrer did not think of a hippopotamus while stirring. The baskets were sold, but the idea of a hippopotamus was so firmly fixed in the minds of all the purchasers that not one of them ever had legitimate grounds on which to demand his mon ey back. Colloquialisms. One of the most common surprises in reading is to come across in old books what we have been accustomed to tak ing for modern colloquialisms. We have just struck this: "Why. then, do you walk as if you had swallowed a rod?" Where? In Epictetus. Thv modern form is likely to be a poker. 1 but we had always looked upon tbtr whole image as essentially American ! It is in reading the Elizabethans that this experience is most frequent, al though one is likely to have it in read ing any classic. The best colloquial isms are likely to be the oldest—Har per's Weekly. John H. Pierce, Attorney. APPLICATION FOK ORDER OF PRI VATE SALE OF REAL ESTATE.
