awful hurting would come
on me, and I could find
nothing to ease the pain.
“I was very weak and

"I tried many remedies,

An “Isle of Dogs” on the west of

French sailing boat and reported by
the Frankfurter Zeltung. The captain
of tills boat put ashore on the small
island of Juan do Neve In rlie belief

Their appearance not proving very
friendly, apart from the weirdness of j
the many canine races that appeared
to have been crossed, the suilormcn put
oil again, noting that the first white
terrier, which appeared to be tho lead
er of tho puck, watched them out to
sea long after the others had disap
peared again among the undergrowth.
The Island resounded with howls, not
barks. Though the skeptical may he

Raven Led Voyager3
to ItxilancFs Shores
Ttrfiogh Iceland now belongs to Den

Dougnlls of Argyllshire, ancestors of
tlm family which now resides at Dun-
ollle castle, and wlioeo eldest daugh
ter is known by Uk> picturesque name
of the “Maid oC Lorn.”
In early days the MncDongalla were
son rovers, and when oti their adven
turous voyages they always had with
them several ravens—their mascot
bird. Sailing along the sou north
ward on a voyage of discovery, a Mue-
Dougal! chief let loose a raven, hoping
it would show where land lay, but tho
bird returned in the direction wticnco
they had come.
Continuing their voyage, another
raven was released, and after circling
around overhead, It came back to the
ship. Knowing the raven's unerring
instinct for making for land, they
knew there was none near.
On they sailed, and then let loose
another bird, which set oil In tho di
rection they were sailing. Following
it, these Intrepid voyagers of the west
ern Isles reached the unknown land of
Iceland.

Life Never Always
Sunshine or Sorrow
Life Itself Is short; time Is fleeting;
and we should learn to accept our lot
with reasonable complacency. That
does not mean that one should sit
quietly and dumbly when beset by
crushing adversity. Make tho best
possible fight against the enemy; but
in tho end, after you have done your
\ t-i best, try to rvat content, what
ever the outcome may be.. Sometimes
our experiences are bitter; other
times they are sweet. But if we do
our part, play the game of life Inrol-
ligently and honestly, we can usually
be assured of fitting rewards. And
when affliction that we may think la
undeserved Is meted out to us; wo
may chafe at Us hardship, though at
times it cannot be avoided, try as we
will. But whatever adversity or mis
fortune may come to you there should
he many exquisitely delightful remem
brances, and you should at all times
try to live within their ecstatic im
agery.—True Story Magazine.
Look of Kelh Greed
Treasure of Ireland
About I he time that tho Roman em
pire was sinking and London was little
more than u haunted ruiu on u hill,
there was an unknown Irish monk cn-
gnved, day after day, year after year,
at bis writing table In an abbey at
Kells, Ireland, lie was transcribing
the Gospels and making a book that
1ms survived to this day as one of tho
ran d, and most beautiful In existence.
It Is called the book of Kells nml
today It reposes in the treasure room
of Trinity college, Dublin, where many
a collector has viewed It and had
offers spurned. Its writer enriched It
with a thousand Intricacies of design,
and mm looking at it today wonder
not only at tho fertility of Ills brain
but at tho keenness of bis eyesight, so
microscopical arc the lines. Once the
l-ook was stolen and found two months
later In an earth pile where the thief
bad thing it when lie decided It was of
no value. Now the book Is considered
tiie most perfect expression of Chris
tian art that lias survived ttie Golden
age of Ireland.—London Express.

Glass Windows Found ,V ’-D
in Old Roman Houses
Glass windows are not the relatively
modern things they' tire commonly ro*
putod to be. According to Dr. M.
Blnsclike, n Gorman ceramic chemist,
they were in use in ancient Rome.
Most of the panes did not exceed 12
by 10 Inches in size, though a few
larger ones have been found. Glass-
making, known for many centuries la
Egypt, came to Rome relatively late.
During tho time .of Cicero, who died
in 43 B. (A, glass objects of any kind
were rarities, and glass windows were
unknown. A hundred years later most
households owned some, and by the
timo the empire was well established
glass wu3 fairly common. The famous
mosaics of tho later empire, notably
ut Ravenna and Constantinople, were
made largely out of bits of glass.
Early Hydroairplanes
The idea of n hydroafrplane, which
had been suggested In patent specifi
cations by Hugo Matulluth of New
York In 1891), had its practical origin
in Curtiss, who added to the airplane
with which ho was experimenting at
Lake Keukn in 1008 floats' placed un
der each wing so that in case of acci
dent the machine would not Pink, but
could bo readied and saved readily
with a boat. In fact, It will be re
called that Langley and other in-
vi iitors flu like reasons made lli.jr
experimental flights over bodies of wa
ter. Probably the* first to add tho
floats ns an Integral part of the ma
chine with tiie express idea of rising
from the surface of the water wns
1'iibre, who on March 23, 1010, made
the first flight with a practical hydro-
airplane at Mzrligucs on Die B-Jne,
France.
Young Men, Got Married!
Tenths should marry In their early
twenties If they want real happiness.
Whatever may have been u man's
chances against marrying happily at
twenty-three, they arc quadrupled as
lie nears forty. Tho man nearing
forty may be u better man, he may
'veil be a worse man";' n't any rate he
Is a different man. Unless he has a
simplicity of heart and equality of
temper rarely found, he will demand
more and give less In marriage. No
marriage can be happy unless both
man and woman arc happy In it, and
the woman who marries a bachelor of
forty will have to give more and take
less, and still bo happy.—Norman
Dnvey In Smart Set Magazine.
When Ignorance Is Sin
Ignorance Is no sin, but to remain
in Ignorance and not to strive foi
the acquisition of knowledge Is sin
The most Important and most vital
lessons of life may bo learned with
out a college education, says Tru;
Experiences Magazine. Love and
kindness and unselfishness and gen
tleness need not be learned In cob
leges. They are within roach of all
who desire to attain them. Mon and
women of energy and character
should not tie dismayed by their lack
of education. They can educate
themselves. The hardy and rugged
facts and truths of life should be the
objects of their pursuit.

“Bird and Fish” Story
by Truthful Angler
“Several years ago one of my
friends was stHp-cnsting with frogs
at night,” relntes Seth Briggs In Field
and Stream Magazine, “He made a
cast of about sixty foot, started to
retrieve Ids line, and feeling a tug
struck hard. There was considerable
commotion on the end of the line, and
suddenly the fisherman became very
much excited. ‘My line’s going right
up in the atr,’ he shouted.
“Strange ns this Bounded, It wns
true. The line bad indeed traveled
from rhe surface of the water to a
position almost directly overhead.
Tiie fisherman managed to get bold of
Hie oi.v. of (be line, and dropping his
rod tie started to haul In hand over
band. In an amazingly short space of
time there was another occupant In
the boat. K proved to be a night
heron, which had nailed the frog."
Which only proves that almost any
thing may happen on a fishing trip!”
