England Had First Club. The first club (in the sense we now use the term) was launched in Eng land 246 years ago. It was the lx>ndon Civil club. The club was founded in thia way: A group of London men 1 about-town used to meet In a tavern nearly every evening. They banded together and moved from the tavern to a house of their own, which they called a clubhouse. The first Important club in America, the Wister of Philadelphia. was founded in 1833. The first distinctive club for women In America was Sorosia, founded in New York In 1868. Consumption Among the Jews. According to Dr. S. Kreinermann of Basel. Switzerland. Jews have a physical predisposition to diseases of the lungs, but they everywhere show a considerably lower morbidity and mortality from consumption than are found amoung Gentiles. He attributes this to their temperance; to a relative immunity acquired through the weaker , of their race having succumbed in 1 earlier generations; to their ritual observance of cleanliness and to the high esteem in which the physician is held among them. Gives Palm to Endurance. A somewhat varied experience of men has led me, the longer I live, to set less value on mere cleverness; to attach more and more Importance to. Industry and physical endurance. Indeed, I am much disposed to think that endurance is the most valuable quality of all; for industry, as the desire to worlf hard, does not come to much If a feeble frame is unable to respond to the desire. —Thomas Huxley. Sure His Time Had Come. It happened in an English hospital ward that at the moment when a patient was just recovering consciousness on his return to bed from the operating theater a Wesleyan minister and two clerical friends came walking in to pay a visit. The patient started I up and stared at the trio of black coats. “Great Scott!” he exclaimed. “The undertakers!” Explaining Ingratitude. The general cry Is against ingratitude, but the complaint is misplaced; it should be against vanity: none but ■ direct villains are capable of willful I ingratitude; but almost everybody is ; capable of thinking he hath done more ■ (han another deserves, while the other thinks he hath received less than he deserves. —Pope. Earth’s Conductivity. The resistance of sea-water is only about one-hundredth that of fresh water. Damp earth often offers less resistance to electric current than does fresh water, but dry earth measures over ten times as many ohms between opposite sides of a cubic section. — Popular Science Monthly. Region Produces Much Talc. That Gouverneur region of New York is by far the largest talc producer In the United States. Years ago its output of talc was greater than that of all other talc-producing localities In this country combined, and the mineral is in places worked to a depth of 500 feet. Toothbrush Case. Art ticking is very appropriate for ’ making toothbrush cases. They should ’ be lined with gum tissue and finished ’ with seam binding around the edge, 1 with loops to hang by. Always place > the bristle end inside to protect from , dust germs. ■ ——— ’ Pessimist’s Viewpoint. ’ “Father,” said the small boy, “what’s • an optimist?” “An optimist, my son, is a man who tries so hard to be cheer- > ful that you feel sorry to see him over- ■ working himself.”—Washington Star. Kind of Neighbor He Liked. Lawyer—“ What sort of a nelghbot is he?” Witness—“ Beet one I ever had. Lived next to him five years." “Then you know him intimately?’ 1 , "Never speke to him.”—Life. Not the Same. "Did the sporting editor give you that fight ticket you asked him for?” askecj the red-headed office boy. “Naw?’ replied his friend. “He only made a pass at me.” Great Leader. A great leader Is a man who can ■ take two women out to dinner and keep the conversation off of new clothes and surgical operations.—Kansas City Star. Worth-While Quotation. “The measure of capacity Is the measure of spheass to either man or woman.”—Elizabeth Oaks Smith. Peacocks Guide Tiger Hunters. In India the presence of peacocks denotes that there are tigers in the vicinity. Optimistic Thought. Invention is not so much the result of labor as judgment " i To Restore Colors. Ammonia will often restore colors that have been faded by acids.

Vaiuaole Asset. There Is no more valuable asset In business than politeness, and this is true in almost every section of so clety. We prefer to trade with a cour | teous person; we resent a push from ; a fellow traveler or a shove from a .conductor; we choose our friends from those who seem to be kindly dis posed toward us; we judge a man by his conduct toward those who serve him. Nevertheless, this reaction is almost involuntary.—Christian Reg ister. Cause for Excitement. Mose Johnson, colored, handy man around the factory, came in late one morning, appearing to labor under considerable excitement. "What’s the matter, Moee?" asked the foreman. "Sick, sub.” "That's too bad.” “Dat aint de wust ob it. I'se got to have op'ra- j tion p'fohmed.” “What kind?" the foreman queried. "Well, suh, de doctah says I’se gotta hab mah asteroids . tooken out." Thought He Had Fleas. George, five, was taking a walk with his papa. It was warm and his underwear was scratching him. He stopped and began to scratch himself. As be did so he said to his papa: "Do you know I have fleas?” "Well,” said his papa, "what makes you think that? ’ This is what he replied: "When dogs scratch themselves people say they 1 have fleas, and ain’t I scratching?" Ail That Happened. My tiny niece has a propensity for play ing with the telephone, for which she has received many scoldings, but to little avail, writes a correspondent of the Chicago Tribune. Her mother heard a crash the other day and called in: "Viola, what have you done?” The little miss replied: "I didn’t hurt It this time, mother. Just the ‘number, please,’ came out.” Too Much of a Good Thing. Grubbs —“I understand that the I Blnks-Jinks wedding has been post- | l>oned Indefinitely.” Stubbs —"Yes, I Miss Binks learned that young Jinks was beginning to manifest an inter-' cst in politics, and said she thought one politician in a family was quite ’ enough."—Richmond Times-Dispatch. ’ Make the Occasion. Young men talk of trusting to the t spur of occasion. That trust Is in vain. Occasions cannot make spurs. It you expect to wear spurs you must win them. If you wish to use them you must buckle them to your own heels before you go into the fight.— James A. Garfield. Supply of Fat a Necessity. Fats, which form about 15 per cent of the weight of the body, are found in meats, vegetable products, butter and other dairy foods. It is largely through an excess of fat that protein is stored in the body, to be drawn upon when needed. Her Castle. Elsie was naughty, and her mother was driven to box her ears soundly in I the very presence of a couple of visiting aunts. Through her tears she sobbed, “And this is the sort of a thing one must endure in one's own house." — Daily Thought. Don’t waste your life in doubts and fears. Spend yourself on the work beI fore you, well assured that the righ'| performance of this hour’s duties will be the best preparation for the hours or ages that follow. —Emerson. Luck and Labor. Luck lies in bed and wishes the I postman would bring the news of a ! legacy; labor turns out at six o’clock and with busy pen or ringing hammer lays the foundation of a competence. ; I —Richard Cobden. Fuel Oil From Seaweed. Seaweed offers a prolific source of fuel oil when present supplies are ' exhausted, according to an English scientist, who has obtained seven gallons from a ton of vegetable matter. Preparedness. “Goodness, Maria, why are you hiding all the music so carefully?” “Well, John, the Puffers are calling on us to- 1 night, and you know Mrs. Puffer never plays without music.” Unkind. “I don’t see why you are so down on Jones." “He once tried to rob me of my reputation.” “You shouldn't have stopped him.”—Boston Transcript. ( Only a Few. . A few people take their pleasure so seriously that they have to open offices and get into business for relaxation. —Washington Star. , Claims Oldest Orchestra. Bath, in England, claims to have the oldest permanent orchestra in existence. It was founded by Beau Nash about 1705. Joy Riding. Gasoline is wasting entirely too ; much energy and time that ought to i be converted Into money.—Houston | PoaL . .
