Advice From a Great Man. Phillips Brooks once said that it Is just as presumptuous to think that you ! can do nothing as it is to think that you can do everything. Try to “steer a middle course” between the two. After the Fire. When fire has swept a bit of woodland the flowers that start the following season are often not the same as grew there before and frequently are strange to the locality. Queer legends I have grown up to account for this fact, I but the explanation is in reality very I simple. Down under the surface soil I this,, seeds have been waiting no one I h!,w long. They never had a L chance before fire gave it.

Oilcloth when used to cover tables will hist much longer if the tables first be covered with paper, well rubbpd with machine oil, to keep the underside of the oilcloth moist. Monarch’s Compliment. A pretty compliment was that Philip IV of Spain, himself a painter, tendered to a greater artist, Velasquez. When Velasquez had finished his famous picture “Las Meninas,” which includes not only Philip and his queen, but the artist himself, brush in hand, he asked of the king. “Is anything wanting?” “One thing only,” answered Philip; and taking tin- palette from Velasquez’s hands, he painted on the ' breast of the artist’s figure in the pic- i ture the Cross of the Order of Santi- ’ ago, the most distinguished in Spain, CARD OF THANKS i We wish to sincerely thank the i neighbors and friends who so kindly assisted us in the sickness and death of our dear mother and grandmother, I Eliza J.

HOW INDIANS FIGHT “FLU” Heroic Remedy Which Unfortunately Does Not Always Seem to Have The Desired Effect. While Americans of convention and medical knowledge are bundling them • selves up and conducting a civilized fight against influenza throughout thi nation, other Americans tire discard ing convention and clothing for the same purpose out where homes ol men are far apart. On the Flathead reservation In Montana when n descendant of warriors feels the symptoms coming on he slut foots it to his tepee. He grunts terse orders and. a squaw squats before the fire and hashes up u concoction Id a five-gallon can. which is a brew of balsam fir boughs mixed with one pint of more or less Illegitimate whisky. Then he saunters to the “sweating tepee.” A large vessel of water Is placed in the center of that rag house and Into the vessel are dropped redhot stones. The medicine is then ready. The Indian who sneezed drinks the brew, inhales the steam, whoops with gusto and races for the creek. Neither the ward nor the government has anything on him as he plunges into the cold creek water. He crawls out, dripping, shivering and “cured.” The funeral usually is held on the following day.
Monument to Mrs. Eddy. A pyramid of granite, weighing approximately seventy-five tons, has been placed on the old Mark Baker farm at Bow, N. IL. as a memorial to Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the Christian Science church, says New York Evening Post. The block was quarried at North Concord, and is said to be the largest ever cut. In the rough It weighed more than 100 tons. It will be anchored on a concrete base on the Bow plateau overlooking the Merrimac valley, and will measure seven feet nine inches in height, including the base. The base is ten feet square. The pyramid is placed in exact orientation. Four bronze tablets affixed to each face of the pyramid bear suitable inscriptions.
Balkan Whiskers. Prof. Clive Day of Tale, who is a . specialist on the Balkans, said in a recent interview: “There is a Balkan story in praise of cleanliness. The scene Is a brigand's camp. “ ‘That prisoner there,’ said a brigI and, pointing his knife at a young : Turkish captive, he esmbs his whiskers every morning.’ “The other brigands listened in as- > tonlshment and the captain said: “ ‘I don’t see how the fellow stands | it. Why, I only comb my whiskers once a month, and then it nearly pulls my chin off.’ ” Largest Order of Merit. The largest order of merit in the | world is the French Legion of Honor, which has a trifle over 500,000 mein- ' bers. Daily Thought.
