A FRIEND Is a man who is will
ing *to share his time, his
monejrjand his conversation
with you.' *
• There are many kinds of friends.
Some friends exist for revenue only
and some are protective to a high de
gree. A true friend is a better de
fender than a battleship and as a
convenience has a national bank
beaten all around the compass.
">Friends are useful in a multitude
of ways. They are a great assist
ance in smoking cigars, in waiting
for ducks and in digesting dinners.
A great many men flnd*it impossible
to support a large heavy bar in an
expensive saloon without , the aid of
sevefal * friends. Friends can be
sworn* at with comparative safety,
and .the man who loves to tell dis
agreeable truths in an offensively
frank manner would not live long if
he were compelled to practice upon
instead of friends.
Friends are blood relatives'of pro
crastination. Both are great thieves
of time. •* As a rule, friends love
most dearly to steal the bright and
cheerful evening hours which should
be spent In reading good books, it
is a common thing for two or three
friends to hold up a perfectly re
spectable business man and take
four or five hours away from him,
including the hour in which the last
street car leaves the down-town dis
trict.
Friends are responsible for most
of the politicians »of the country.
Almost every man who has run for
office has done so at the insistence
of his friends. This can be proven
by the statements of thousands
candidates. However, most of these
friends# prove their friendship at
elections by steadfastlyAvoting . for
the other fellow

Standard Time.
Standard time is a uniform system
of time reckoning in the United
States and Canada adopted in 1863
by the principal railways, and since
Chen by the principal cities and towns
of both countries. By this system the
continent is divided into four sections,
each extending over 15 degrees of
longitude (making a difference of time
of exactly one hour) the time prevail
ing in each being that of its central
meridian.
The Champion Lie.
Probably the unmitigated falsehood
most frequently told year in and year
out takes this form: We welcome hon
est criticism.—Ohio State Journal.
FRIENDS
first recorded friends of-great devo
tion. David loved Jonathan like *
brother, but was not half so mean
to him. Damon and Pythias were
celebrated friends who flourished be-
i i I * i |
fore the Christian era was invented.
Pythias took Damon's place in the
death cell while bamon visited hia
relatives, and was peeved when he
could not die for him. Nowadays
even greater heights of devotion are
reached between friends who go un
flinchingly to death in each other's
automobiles in great numbers.
Some people use friend 3 as recrea
tions, some as tonics, some as bank
accounts, some as ladders and some
as stone walls to lean against. A
certain method of finding a friend
is to go out and make a noise like
a bill, breaking. A method not naar
ly so sure is to go broke yourself.
Friends are pleasant if used In
moderation, but disastrous ir used
to excess. Very few men can afford
to have more than a dozen friends,
unless they have nothing else to do.
It is as much trouble to keep three
friends as it is to keep one hired
girl. +
Always One Lap Ahead.
"My life is devoted to the pursuit
of happiness." said the Optimist.
"Well, he'll give you the chase of a
lifetime," quoth the Pessimist.
Overheated Air.
A rise of temperature in the sur
rounding air diminishes the amount of
oxygen consumed and the amount of
dioxide discharged. A fall of tem
perature has the opposite effect. In
addition, the overheated air forms a
hot jacket around the body, which pre
vents the radiation of heat necessary
to keep the body in a healthy condi
tion. With a sedentary occupation a
temperature of from 65 to 70 should be
maintained for comfort and health.
Few individuals Honored.
France delights in naming its streets
after some, particular building, or some
happening, or a great victory, and this
is also true to a certain extent in
Canada, where there is only one capi
tal city which commemorates an indi
vidual. This is Charlottetown, the
capital of Prince Edward Island. The
Charlotte so remembered was the
daughter and only child of George IY,
who died only a year after her mar
riage in 1817.—Philadelphia North
American.
Compromise With Stupidity, i
The public mind is nearly always
slow working. The deliberations of a
body of men must usually wait upon
the intelligence of its least Intelligent
member, and the final result of such
deliberation will ordinarily be closer
to the mentality of the stupidest mem
ber of the conference than that of
the most intelligent. Intelligence must
compromise with stupidity. The broad
minded must compromise with the big
oted. Stupidity and bigotry are near
ly always reflected in public opinion.—
William Maxwell in Collier's Weekly.
To Clear the Voice.
This is a simple remedy for clearing
the voice: Granulated sugar and
enough lemon juice to dampen the
sugar thoroughly. Take a teaspoonful
every hour until the voice improves.
Bathe the throat and chest with cold
water and do not dress the throat too
warmly when on the street.

Power of Humor.
The following anecdote illustrating
Henry Ward Beecher's power of us
ing humor for argument is related In
the Youth's Companion: "On one oc
casion a man in the congregation
asked, 'lf a man is a good father and
a good husband, but never reads the
Bible, where will he go when he dies?'
'l'm sure I don't know,' Beecher re
plied, 'but wherever he goes he has my
best wishes.'"
Use of Gold in Teeth.
The use of gold as a substitute for
lead or bone as a filling for the teeth
was perfected in 1855 by Dr. Robert
Arthur of Baltimore, while in 1884
Prof. W. D. Muller of Berlin, In his
discovery of the bacteria origin of dis
eases of the teeth and of the large part
played by lactic acid, opened the way
to avenues of research, which may ulti
mately lead to the total extinction of
the dentist. —New York World.
There Many Years.
A woodsman in northern Michigan
found a horse collar growing in a tree.
Experts declare that the collar might
have been the top of a sapling which
encircled the base of the larger tree.—
Popular Science Monthly.
Unquestioned Authority.
"Look here, doctor," roared the irate
man who had just received a bill from
the physician, "on what do you base
these enormous charges?" "On the
best authority in the world," calmly
responded the doctor. "Doesn't the
Bible say: 'All that a man hath will he
give for his life?'"
A Little Strange.
Edgar, aged five, was driving from
the station on his first visit to Maine.
His mother, noticing a troubled look
on his face as he looked about, said,
"What's the matter, dear? Don't you
like the beautiful country?" "Yes.
mother, but on my map Maine is red!"
Dwarf Trees. •
Dwarf trees are suited to small gar
dens. They occupy little space, are
easily cared for, bear sooner than
standard kinds and they are easily
shaped into bushes and pyramids or
can be used in espalier forms, trained
on buildings, fences tor trellises.
No More Fairy Tales.
"Now the giant had a wonderful
musical instrument which would cry
out if anybody tried to steal it." "I
don't see anything so wonderful about
it. I think maybe we could arrange
our graphophone to do that." —Louis-
ville Courier-Journal. .
For Use in His Church?
A clergyman is the inventor of a
light bar to be held against the upper
lip by clamps fastened in the nostrils
to prevent snoring.—Houston Post.
Very Pleasant Evening.
Willis —"Did you have a good time
at the Bumps' last evening?" Gillis —
"Yes. We spent an evening of sin."
Willis —"What do you mean?" Gillis—
"My wife cheated at cards, I lied about
my income, and between us we swiped
their best umbrella."—Life.
Horses Wear Trousers.
When the horses in Nice, France,
are hitched to tar-spreading carts they
wear trousers to protect their legs from
the hot tar. A further protection for
them consists of a curtain suspended
between the cart and the horse. The
trousers are what lends distinction to
the horse, however. The knees are a
bit baggy but the horse doesn't seem
to care.
Not the Only One.
This buying plan of $5 down and $5
when they catch you keeps the house
keeper on the jump.—Philadelphia In
