Russian Inefficiency.

Last September serious bread riots occurred in Petrograd. Although the city is situated in

the center of a large wheat growing territory it

found itself one day out of foodstuffs. Baker shops were farced to close their doors. Hungry mobs stormed the shops demanding enough bread to sustain life. Appeal to the officials elicited the glib reply, "There , is a shortage of cars." Although there were thousands of bushels of grain within short distance from Petrograd, official inefficiency made thousands starve. At the same time, passenger cars running half empty were not commandeered, but permitted to run on their regular schedule. Had the schedule been interrupted one day, enough grain could have been delivered to solve the problem. Russian officials, however, left the masses to starve.

GIVES EMPLOYES $500 IN GIFTS

HAGERSTOWN, Ind., Dec. 27. The Teetor-Hartley motor Co., closed down

the factory ' Friday forenoon to give

the men a vacation until Wednesday.

They made each employe a present of

$2.00. George Fulkerson the oldest

man in the service of the company was presented a $5 gold piece. He has been employed by the company

twenty years. During that time Mr.

Controlling the Temper. That the whole bodily economy, spiritual as well as physical, is affected by a violent outburst of anger is a proposition which almost any one will concur in. To maintain well balanced judgment, mental poise, complacency , when provoked

shows that a person knows how to husbandlusiTCCTnD PflrilPEDM energy and conserve his strength. Dr. W. H. I Ull uUilULIlN

Riley, in this month's issue of "Good Jtieaun, gives some excellent advice along these lines. He says: "One cannot 'have good health unless he controls his temper. It is not only the great rages and violent bursts of anger that disturb normal functions, but also the habit of irritation and impatience. "There are some people who aire entirely upset when the weather does not suit their plans,

while there are others to whom scorched break

fast toast is a tragedy. The lack of poise that is

manifested in constant fretting and fault finding

has a very bad effect upon the health. , "We are all familiar with the angry appear

ance of the human countenance it shows in the

eyes, the set jaws, the scowls, the flush or pallor of the face ; the rigid body and clenched fists are additional signs of intense feeling. When one is very angry he feels the heart beating rapidly, his ears hum, and his muscles twitch ; the knees feel

weak, the mouth becomes parched, and he is nearly choked with wrath. Then comes the out

burst!

"It is easy to believe that such a condition of

emotion profoundly affects the whole bodily economy, and this is precisely what happens. "The dry mouth, which is a symptom of great anxiety, as well as of anger, is due to a sudden suppression of secretion of the saliva. In India, prectical use was made of this fact in what was known as the 'ordeal of rice.' When several persons were suspected of crime, the consecrated rice was given them to chew, and this after a time was expectorated upon the leaf of the sacred fig tree. If anyone ejected it dry, that was taken as proof that fear of discovery had stopped salivary secretion and the person was found guilty."

The increase in the population has not been as noticeable as it would have been had the citizens built sufficient houses for the families of the factory employes. At present there are nearly 260 employes, many of whom live elsewhere. The $5.00 gift of the employers to their men is only Indicative of the many similar remembrances.

SHERIFF KILLS NEGRO

LIBERTY, Ind., Dec. 27. County Sheriff Elmer Post, shot and almost instantly killed Carlo Heard, colored, Christmas day. Heard and another colored man who were employed as farm laborers by Hollis Maxwell got into a drunken brawl. Sheriff Post and Deputy Buchanan were called to stop the fight. When the officers arrived one of the men was found in the yard covered with blood. He was arrested and gave the information that Heard was in the house and well armed. Buchanan took charge of the arrested man while Sheriff Post went in the house after Heard. The colored man resisted, knocking the sheriff down and then drew his gun declaring that he would never be taken alive. Post shot, the bullet striking the colored man in the abdomen. Heard died before a physician could reach the house.

MODOC.

Requests for th6 address of Mary Pickford have come to the office. Address letters to 270 Riverside Drive, New York.

One morning I arose at dawn and stood before the mirror. What had been promised for my third day's work was a love scene, and I had not the courage to tell Mr. Griffith it was to be my first. So that is why I decided I must practice my own arts upon myself in the long, indifferent mirror. The morning before, sincerely playing that I was the poor little orphan, I had nothing to reproach myself with, and I think, between you and me, I was quite pleased with my own technique. But when it came to sounding a deep

human note I must have struck the keys too hard, for I was all out of tune. Sir Henry Irving might have found himself in the mirror a very good audience and could find grave flaws in his own acting by watching himself before a glass, but I learned then I could never get anything from a study of my own likeness. My Imagery and my guidance must come from within. I have never pantomimed before my mirror since that morning. Love has always seemed a very potent thing to me, so I was surprisingly thrilled with the idea of being called

to a wooden post. Dobson is a hand-!

some fellow, Miss Pickford; is he a better substitute?" I couldn't agree that Dobson was a handsome fellow. He was tall and lean and lanky, lantern jawed and had a long, soft nose which ended in an arrogant knob. But at least he was better than the post, and I blushingly admitted it to Mr. Griffith. A Real Lotharia. But this was only my test, and later it was Owen Moore who was called by Mr. Griffith to play opposite me.

As the only romantic episodes I had ever witnessed were across the footlights, I had a vague notion that when Mr. Griffith would stage our scene it would be accompanied by soft music and a general hushed air prevailing the studio. At nine o'clock I was made up at three I was called. Mr. Griffith came to me and said, an amused smile deepening the corners of his mouth, "I suppose. Miss Pickford, you've had a great deal of experience being made love to." A Dreadful Ordeal "Yes, sir," I fibbed, not knowing what else to say. "In that case," he replied, "you will not have to be rehearsed with the leading man. He is at present sulking in his dressing room. If you don't mind you can begin on that post over there. I merely want to see how realistically you can portray a lovelorn maiden." This was a dreadful ordeal! I looked at the post in a vague sort of a way as I was led toward It" But Mr. Griffith was already directing me. "Just imagine. Miss Pickford, this post is a handsome young man you have loved for a long, long time. Put your arms around him and tell him how many years you have waited to reach this goal of happiness." Mechanically I obeyed him, putting my arms around the post, my face crimson, my eyes almost filling with tears and my voice ebbing very low in my throat as I said, in a half-hearted manner, "I love you." When I looked around, Mr. Griffith was laughing at me. "It seems to me you are very mild for a young lady so much la lore as you. Miss Pickford. Cant you put more spirit into it?" This piqued me. "Pardon me, Mr. Griffith," I said, with a very penitent air, "but I don't think I can do myself Justice with a post. He Is not very responsive."
