PROVERBS WHICH ONE QUOTES

People Naturally Are Apt to Use Those , Which Relate to Their ; o . Businesses. : :

Did you ever notice how provincial and self-centered the world is? . Why, we can’t hold an ordinary conversation without some hint of our petty business affairs entering in. The very proverbs which we affect, the very bromides of speech to which we are subject, are all directly traceable to our particular every-day pursuits, : Having glways suspected this to be true, I one day set about to prove it. In my daily search for Judgelets, I made the rounds of all my friends, engaging them in pleasant colloquy. Here's the result: ‘ _ “I'm pleased to meet you,” smiled the butcher., = y .

“Suit yourself,” said the tailor. : - “That’s right,” agreed the traffic cop. “And so forth,” said the dressmaker. ‘“That’s a dirty shame,” observed the washwoman. ; - “Every little bit helps,” philosophized the carpenter. . L : - “That’s the long and short of it,” retorted the rural telegraph operator. | ““Try to keep a stiff upper lip,” admonished the barber. i “Yes, I need it,” protested the baker. “I'm not very well posted on that,” faltered the bookkeeper. : A “These words shall be my last” averred the cobbler.—Alfa Eugene Bye, in Judge. e

OBJECTS TO TERM ‘MASSACRE’ Author Insists That Custer’'s Last Fight Must Properly Be De- . scribed as a Battle, . Cyrus Townsend Brady, LL.D., In the preface of a volume on “Indian Fights and Fighters,” makes a marked distinction between 'the terms “massacre” and “battle” He says| that every time a body of troops ‘enLaged in a fight with Indians and the troops were outnumbered or caught at a disadvantage, and the battle was continued until the treops were slaughtered, such an affair was popularly called a “massacre,” as, for instance, “The Custer Massacre.” ] '

- Mr. Brady believes this to be an unwarranted use of the term. Custer, the author points out; attacked the Indians and fought desperately until he and his men were all killed. - He calls it a “battle” and not a “massacre.” When an Indian war party raided a settlement or overwhelmed a train, or murdered women and children, that, he thinks, was a “massacre.” The author says: e ‘ “I would like to ask if anyone ever heard of the ‘Massacre of Thermopylae? The Greeks fought there ‘until all save one were killed. The results there were exactly’ the same as those of the battle of the Little Big Horn, but I have yet to read in history that the Persians ‘massacred’ the Greeks in that famous pass.” i : :

- Rush to Diamond Fields. . The biggest rush in. the history of the Transvaal alluvial diamond diggings has taken place at Kaalplaats, 50 miles from Johannesburg. Three thousand would-be diggers formed a line 2,100 yards long. A proclamation having been read, a Union Jack was lowered, and the long line of seekers after fortune moved off at the double over a thousand yards of green, undulating country. Young men and old, both British and Dutch, boys and women and girls, surged forward brandishing pegs. There was great excitement around the richest spot, but so vast was the dilamond field that there were claims for all and to spare. Within a little while a thousand diggers had begun work with pick and shovel, and some excellent finds were made. So far, diamonds weighing 1,450 carats and valued at $68,000 have been found at Kaalplaats. e

Made It Personal. A little girl had been taken to church by her Aunt Helen. On returning home her mother began to cross-examine her as to what she had heard. A , o s “What hymn did you have, dear? she asked. ; e - - The little girl’s memory failing her for the moment, she turned: inquiringly to her aunt who whispered in her ear: “‘Sun of My Soul,’ dear.” ~ “Well, what was it?’ her mother asked, a trifie impatiently. .= “Sun of Aunt Helen’s Soul” was the reply that astonished her parent.

Windmills in Place of Sails. Windmills to drive ships are the product of the French inventions department, an official war agency that has been continued. These windmills are intended to enable countries without coal or oil fields to sail the seas without coal or petroleum. The power of the windmill is transmitted below decks, where it later appears at the propellers.—The Nation’s Business.

~ Dog's Bark Proved Expensive. | . The barking of a dog so f;ighténLd a flock 0f 2,000 sheep returning in the dark from the mountaln pastures at Freney d'Oisans, near Grenoble, France, that they rushed L over a ravine. The shepherd, in attempting to stop them, was dragged over with them, but was rescued, though his condition was grave. Numbers of the sheep were killed; G 1

OF COURSE DORIS WON OUT

: What Was There for =M9§hsr to Say | in the Face of Such an _ Argument? =

They had been chatting since entering the bus, but the Woman, who sat opposite them on top, heard nothing really good until Grant's monument 'was reached. Lo - Without taxing her hearing in the least the Woman learned that they were former schoolmates at the university (for university days weére mentioned again and again) who were revisiting the city after a number of years. o - “I don’t think the girls of this century will ever stand for long skirts again,” remarked the one in the green dress. “Reminds me of what Evelyn was telling me just before I came away. She was making a skirt for her daughter, Doris. Everything except the correct length had been decided uponi. Evelyn wanted to make this a little longer than Doris’ other skirts. She told her that the fashion was for increasing the length, But Doris was obdurate, L A

“Evelyn, you know, generally lets bher have her way in matters of dress, but this time she argued and Doris burst into tears. ‘Be fair, mums,’ she pleaded. ‘Honest Injun, now which de you think I should take—the advice of one mether or of twenty girls? ” ' “And what happened?” : “Oh, mother shortened the skirt, of course.”—Exchange.

HISTORIC HOME FOR AMERICA?

Possibility That Dwelling in Which Miles Standish Was Born May 'Be Brought Here. =

The hero of Longfellow’s poem, “The Courtshipy of Miles Standish,” was a real historical character, who was born in Lancdshire, England, somewhere about 1584. It is now suggested that the house where he was born should be transported to New England. It is even said that within six m'on%:s the four rooms of the Standish home new located in the parish of Standish. near Wigan, Lancashire, England. will be fitted into the house for some United States citizen whose faniily history goes back to Mayflower days. The Standish house has Deen occupied by the Standish family since tlie Norman conquest. One of the ancestral stately homes of England is just now being taken down and carried across the Atlantic to be set up stone by stone somewhere in the States. Now if history belonging to these ancient buildings could also be transferred to the United States, what a heap of renown that enterprising nation could collect and own?— Montreal Family Herald,:

Rodent Was the Burglar, : A New York Chinaman sent an urgent, call to detective headquarters complaining that $9OO had been stolen from him. The Chink, who conduects a restaurant, told the detectives: he suspected a colored employee, stating he hid the money in his cellar, but could not locate it. A detective suggested a search of the cellar. The detectives made a careful survey, without results. As they turned'to abandon their search, one of them noticed a small bundle of paper move across the cellar floor. Springing upon the object, he placed his foot full upon it. The bundle ceased to move, but its moving force—a husky rat—vanished into a' nearby hole. Nine hundred dollars in bills was in the bundle, thus accidentally clearing up what might have been a baffling mystery. ' : i

- . Diplomatic Corps Cared For. ! Other Washingtonians may shiver with the cold this winter, owing to the coal ‘shortage, but the administration has seen to it that the 400 persons in the diplomatic corps will not suffer, | owing to-a lack of fuel. Many of the diplomats come from countries where artificial heat in homes is almost unknown and, indeed; unnecessary, and worried about their empty coal bins The State department has given them precedence over others, thus emphasizing the entente cordiale. It is only in recent years that the English and the Scotch have known the comfort of steam heat, the sea coal fire, as they call it, burned in open grates, being the only method of heating their. homes.—Washington Star. ; Lok

Martens Raised In Captivity. ' The raising of martens in captivity Is now commercially possible as a result of the discovery of their breeding season by naturalists of the biological survey of the United States Depart . ment of Agriculture.
