Nothing dies but something Every man Is great Just because Is a man. Music In Its highest form seems pensive memory. There are many echoes In the and but few voices. Life has been Hwfully Injured It looks only black. I Circumstances and warm alter the contents of egg eases. About the hardest tiling for a man to do )« to kiss a girl unexpectedly. Even tbe optimist forgets to- smllp when the tux collector comes around, The cup of happiness usually springs a leuk before It begins to run over. Probably T.ot’s wife passed some other woman and turned to see what slip had on. And sometimes alimony seems to he the capital prize In tiie marriage lottery. The man In love loses Ids self pos session In trying to get possession of another. If a man could read his own biog¬ raphy It would surprise him more than any one else. . RIVERS CARRY SALT INTO THE OCEAN At first It strikes one as strange that, nlthongh the sea must originally have heen formed of distilled water— that Is, congealed watery vapor and though all the rivers that flow Inlo It, estimated In amount in the aggregate to 6,500 cubic miles of water every year, are fed exclusively by rainfall. which Is also distilled water. It should nevertheless he extremely brackish, very *ai| indeed in (lie tropics and less salt at the poles. Yet It Is chiefly the rivers that ac¬ count for the saltness of the sea. It Is estimated that they carry some¬ thing like 100,000,000 tons of saline matter Into the ocean every year and, further, that the ocean holds in sus¬ pension no less than 140,000.1 KIO,000 tons of salt, a sufficient quantity, If extracted, to cover the dry surface of the earth to a depth of 400 feet, says London Til Rits. It Is believed that 90,000,000 years have been required for the sea to at¬ tain Its present silliness. The Only One tn.vce plays gulf and lie prefers s solitary round with only the caddie pr>sent. He had a new boy one day recently, and played as usual. "I fancy I play tbe worst game In t‘.e world.” he confessed In the cuddle. “Oh, 1 wouldn’t say that, sir,” was •he consoling reply. “From what the hoys were saying about another gen¬ tleman who plays here, he must he worse than you are.” “AVhat’s his name,” asked the player hopefully. And the caddie replied: “Joyce.” —Pearson’s Magazine. Keeping Him In “Confound a cuss that’ll leave his cistern uncovered so’s another feller falls In!” yelled Gabe Glggery who at that moment was in Mr. Johnson's cis¬ tern. “As soon as 1 get out I’ll whip you on less ground than a two-dollar bill will cover!” “Good thing for me. and mebby you. that you mentioned that fact before I fished you out.” replied Gap Johnson, of Rumpus ltidge. "I’ll just let you stay In there till you don't." Penalty of Negligence “Mizzus Tarpy just told me that I.um Hawkey fell dead a spell ago while chopping stove wood,” excitedly cried Mrs. Johnson, upon her return from a noighborhood call. “Goodgoddlemlghty !’’ ejaculated Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge. “That pore feller might have been alive right now if he had begun breaking his wife In to do her work when they was first married.”—Kansas City Star.

Electricity, though not a bud word, Is often shocking. The most difficult thing In life Is to know yourself. Charity should begin at home, they say; so should reform. Every time a man conceals a fault he adds to Ids collection. Don’t have so many chores that you have no time for contemplation. fine who doesn’t care much to talk finds the telephone no temptation. In doing something for others yon do not lose their respect by making it pay. When doctors disagree they can al¬ ways unite in attributing it to heart failure, j Poverty may be a blessing in dis¬ guise to young people, but not to old ones. If a tnnn tjilnks a girl is a vision, some other girl pronounces her a per¬ fect sight. Why don’t girls employed in match factories get married sooner than other girls? If a man talks unusually loud It. Isn’t necessary to clear a space for him to act In. Those who acquire the millions do ! It for the fun they get in acquiring, nc>f in s I« , nding. It Is an outstanding fact that the man who Is Asked to Indorse a note Is alwnys good for It. Backward nations have always had | to be bossed by forward nations—and charged a high price for it. There Is a good deal of sentiment In "not hurting business.” Business la everybody’s bread and butter. How American Fliers Gained Day on Trip "A newspaper date line—‘Parania fdiiru Island, Kuriles. May 17’—lias done more to make the International date line ati understandable reality to j tiilllions of readers than could niuner oils chapters In school geographies” i says a bulletin from the Washington headquarters ),/....... of f »i the * National v ft « « Geo graphic society. ’Tills unusual date line appeared In the morning papers of May 17 that bad gone to press about 4 o’clock In the morning. The dispatch told of the arrival the same dav ’ Saturday ’, ’! at ’ ,, the morning, , of AmeHcas . , loumMiif-uorld a, fliers apparently seven and a half hours after the papers were printed. "But because the fliers lmd hurdled the date line Immediately after leav¬ ing the last Aleutian island they had Jumped twenty-four hours into the ' future. Their arrival was really about { sixteen and one-half hours before tlie papers went to press. They had be¬ gun to speak a different language from America—their 11:35 Saturday was the same as 11:35 Friday in the United States. I Study Electric Eel Attendants at the New York zoo having been stunned by current from the electric eel, an investigation has heen begun of (lie creature’s power plant. Previous attempts at measuring the current have failed because the used sufficiently ' apparatus was not sensitive to register the sudden and Intense shocks delivered. These, ac¬ cording to Popular Mechanics Maga¬ zine, are said to he powerful enough to stun a horse and are described by keepers who suffered them, ns “sledge¬ hammer” blows that caused black and blue marks on tiie skin. A German professor, according to R. L. Dltmars, curator, has obtained light of dazzling Intensity by connecting the current to bulbs, but the flash was over in an In¬ stant, defying attempts to measure It. , Plana to Trap Weevil Hudson Maxim, inventor, recalls I that the Indians used to scent their traps w ith the odor of the I female | heaver. This attracted the males and large numbers of them were trapped. The sense of smell which Is extremely keen in Insects guides them to the discovery of their mates, he says. For instance the male silkworm can detect the female by smell at a dis¬ tance of two miles. He suggests that a scent, prepared from the bodies of i female boll weevil moths or perhaps made synthetically, might be used to | lure males of the species to traps or poisons. Uncle Joe Stands Pat "Speaking of Mr. Cannon,” writes E. S„ “would you care to know Uncle Joe's creed? It is a striking one and I copy it for you from my scrapbook: i ‘I believe the Almighty organized this big corporation known as humanity. Issued all the capital stock and is re¬ sponsible for Its maintenance at par value; and I'll he hanged if I'll pert with my holdings.’ ”—Boston Tran script. Bees Darken Beacon Swarms of bees recently swept off¬ shore by the wind in a storm, made their landing on the huge lamp of the South-West lighthouse off New Haven, Conn. So thick were the bees, says an eyewitness, that they covered the lens area of the beacon and obscured the light that guides mariners in Long j Island sound. t WANTED —For Peach Blossom Fes-1 tival 500 hogs for barbecue pur- j poses.
