LUCK SURELY WITH CARNEGIE In His Autobioeraiwg‘ Ircnmaster Has Told of an MWezing Piece. i of Fortune,” ~ ¢ .- ~ Business acquaintances and rivals of Andrew Carnegie’s used to declare that in addition to his remarkable ability and farsightedness he was blessed with amagjng luck. An incidént early in the ironmaster's career seems to justify the assertion. A piece of carelessness that might have ruined an other man resulted, in Carnegie’s case, only in a brief scare. e B One morning, he relates in his autobiography, he set out from Altoona for Pittsburgh with a packdge. of puy rolls and checks under his waistcoat-— for the package was too large for his pockets. He was a very enthusiastic railroader at that time and liked to ride on the engine, It was a very lough ride over the mountains, and at one place, uneasily feeling for the padkage, he was horrified to find that the jolting of the train had shaken it out! “There was,” he says, “no use in disguising the fact that such a fuilure would. ruin me, for to have been sent for the pay rells and checks and to lose the package was a dreadful showing. I called the engineer and told him that.it must have been shaken ‘out within the last few miles. Would he reverse his engine and run back for it? Kind soul, he did so. I watchod the line, and on the bank of a large stream within a few feet of the water I saw the package. I could bhardly believe my eyes. I ran down and grasped it. It was not damaged. Need I add that it never passed out of my firm grasp aggin until it was safe in Pittsburgh? “F. never ventured to tell the story until long afterward. Suppose that package had fallen just a few feet farther away and been swept down by the stream; how many years of faithful service it would .have re: quired to wipe out the effect of that One piece of carelessness! ~ <9 have never since believed, says he, in being too hard on a young man, even if he does commit a dreadful mistake or two; and in judging such acts I have always tried to remember the -difference it would bave made in mgy own career if I had.not found that lost package.”—Youth’s Companion,~

That “Groundhog” Belief,

According to popular superstition, the groundhog has his day I'ebruary 2. : e = ’ According to biological and wesather experts, Mr, Groundhog is a pest and no prophet. The people that believe in the “six weeks more of winter,” if he sees his shadow are fooling themselves. Whether or not the sun shines February 2 and casts the shadow of the groundhog, who may come out looking for something to eat, the weather will not be affected. ; : :

“The belief about the groundhog and his effect on the weather is absolutely without basls,” emphatitally declares K. H. Bowie, supervising forecaster of the United States weather bureau. Just to satisfy themselves that such is the case, the metedrological experts of the westher bureau have examined the records for the past years, and they find that ‘whether ‘it was sunny or cloudy on past February 2nds, the weather for thf ‘succeeding six weeks goes on in‘about the same way.—Secience” Service, | -

lET IN CRARDENS

Statesmen Have Made History in . Peageful Spots. -~

Recent Occurrence in the Grounds at Chequers Is an Example—f-Be_gin-~ ning of Fateful War, g

“ It was in the garden at Chequers that the first intimation was given of the fateful conference at Washington upon which, remarks London Answers, not improbably, the future of civilization hangs. . e ' L "It was Sunday afternoon and the American ambassador had arrived with a cablegram in his pocket from the American President. It was an invitatiog to the British government to send representatives to Washington to discuss the question of disarmament. Mr. Harvey, the ambassador, and Mr. Lloyd George were seated together in the garden when the former handed thé cablegram to our prime minister. In a flash the prime minister was on his " feet. “We -accept!” he almost shouted. “We accept gladly, we accept gratefully. We will do everything in our power to make the’conference a suecess.” S ‘ ~ The/Temple garden, on the embank‘ment, is one of the most historiec spots In London, for it was there that the Wars of the Roses commenced. These wars were so-called because the ensign lof. the house of York was a white rose, and that of the house of Lancaster a Ired rose. :

The story goes that Lords Somer--set and York, with a mumber of their retainers, met in the Temple gardens, and commenced to quarrel about the weuk King Henry VI, for yhom the former was regent, ; ] In the midst of the quarrel Somerset picked a red rose, and turning to his friends, said: “Let him who sides with me pluck a red rose and wear it in his cap !”*.‘ it ‘ |. : = Then the duke of York savagely tore a white rose from a neighboring bush,: and cried: “This is my badge! Let him wl;0~ is ‘'my friend pluck a white rose and wear it!” t : This scene is pictured in one of the frescoes in the houses of parliament. It was one of the great turning points in English history, for the Wars of the Roses shattered feudalism, destroyed Ithe power of the barons, and set in motion the spirit of freedom and )de_mocratic_ government which is the kevnote ef modern England. ’ - The vast empire of India was virtually won for Bri;ain’ in a garden. On February™s, 1757; just outside the village of Plassy, Surajah Dowlah had 80,000 troops and Clive 8,000. ' © .

¢live called a council of war, which advised. him not. to advance. Clive went into a garden_alone, dnd set under a grové of trees for an hour in quiet thought." When he came out he rejected the council’s advice, and subdued an empire in a battle which only lasted an hour! e T wilßerforce first mooted the question of the abolition of the slave trade to Pitt in a garden, Wilbérforce had just read Clarkson’s famous essay on abolition, when he was invited to spend a week-end’ with Pitt, and wandered with him into the beautiful park at Holwood, near Bromley. = ° . : There he first announced his intention to the great statesman of bringIng the subject before the house. The resolution was made at the foot of a tree called Wilberforce’s oak, and a stone seat, ereeted by the earl of Stanhope, marks the spot. i A little later, when Wilberforce put his case before the house, Pitt, Fox and Burke supported him -and -all England rang with applause.

The Earth’s Hot Box.

In connection with the recent earthquakes in Mexico and California, a negro. preacher in Houston, Texas, has evolved an ingenious theers which, one must admit, fits very well existing cireumstances. He addressed ais flock as follows: S

“Bredderr an’ sisters, we fave received annudger warnin’ not te go pesticatin’ into de ways ob Providence, De earf, breddern, revolutes on itz axles, an’ it takes a right sma’t lot ob grease to keep it lubricated. So de goed Lord put petroleum inside de earf to keep de axles greased. ;

“Den, bye an’ bye, long cowmwe all dese’ hyah ile companies, pugchin’ holes in de ground clear down ‘into de bearin’s, and quensecontly all de ile come . squirtin’ out. Fust- thing we know dere’s a hot box an’ de earf squeaks an’ rumbles an’ gruntg an’ dat’s de earfguake.. If dey don’t quit it purty soon dere won’t be no moah grease left and de earf will stick tight on its axles an’ won’t go 'round no moah.”—Wayside Tales. :

Legs That Only Look Bare.

Even for out-of-doors skating the New York girls cannot give up the appéarance of bare knees. They wear sport skirts to the knees and heavy woolen stockings turméd down to the ‘tops of the skating shqes. The onlooker shivers at the sight of what he ‘thinks are baye legs, until he discovers that the apparently naked legs are covered with flesh-colored wool hose.’ e gl B e .
