A Persian Romance. A Persian plaque in the South Ken sington museum, Ixindon, bears by means of clever relief and brilliant color a romantic tale, part legend and part history. Nobody knows the pro portion of each. At all events it is declared to be an incident in the life of Baharam V. of the Sassauian dynasty. Baharam. ac cording to legend and plaque, was a wonderful archer. During one of his hunting expeditions, on which his fa vorite wife had accompanied him, he shot a sleeping antelope with such pre cision as to graze the animal’s ear. The antelope awoke and. believing him self annoyed by a fly. put his hind hoof to his ear to strike off the fly. A second arrow sent by the royal hand fixed the antelope’s hoof to his horn. The king’s wife merely said,_J"prac tice makes perfect/' which touched the pride of her royal si>ouse. Indeed, as the penalty for her plain speaking she was sent out into the mountains to perish, but instead found shelter in a village. Here she lodged in an upper room ascended by twenty steps and, having bought a calf, car ried it up and down every day. The king, passing by four years later, was amazed at seeing a young woman car rying a cow up a flight of twenty steps. The lady again took occasion to remark, “Practice makes perfect” whereupon she unveiled, was recogniz ed and restored to favor. Glories and Glooms. The students of Yale university hare Invented some new slang descriptive of Important conditions which affect the lives of young men. Here are some additions to the Yale vernacular: “A glory"—A young woman of un usual attractiveness. “A gloom"—A young woman of far less than average attractiveness; vide "lemon." “A ball of fire”—A young woman whose beauty and charm are irresisti ble.

First National Bank Building, Winder, Ga. Fever and Wet Clothes. General P.aden-Poweli in his book, “Scouting For Boys,” writes of the dangers that come from wet garments and of the best way to dry one’s clothes: %Y ou will often get wet through on service, and you will see recruits remaining in their wet clothes until they get dry again. No old scout would do so, as that is the way to catch fever and get ill. When you are wet take the first opportunity of getting your wet clothes off aud dry ing them, even though you may not have other clothes to put on, as hap pened to me many a time. “I have sat naked under a wagon while ray one suit of clothes was dry ing over a fire. The way to dry clothes over a fire is to make one of hot ashes and then build a small beehive shaped cage of sticks over the fire and hang your clothes over the cage, and they will very quickly dry; also lu hot weather it is dangerous to sit in your clothes when they have got wet from perspiration. “On the west coast of Africa I al ways carried a spare shirt hanging down my back, with the sleeves tied around my neck. So soou us 1 halted I would take off the wet shirt 1 was wearing and put on the dry, which had been hanging out iu the sun ou rny back. By this means 1 never got fever when almost every one else went down with it.” Sacred Birds of the Aztecs. Imagine a bird the size of a pigeon, its buck, head, wings aud breast dazzling metallic green with golden sheen, its entire lower parts vivid scarlet, a soft, recurved crest curling over the bill and ferny, curved plumes, lapping over the wings, while two or three slender green feathers a yard or more in length extend over and be yond the glossy 7 black and white tail. Such is the Quetzal, or resplendent Trogon, sacred bird of the Montezu ma?, national emblem of Guatemala and the handsomest and most striking of all the gorgeous Trogon family. Al though found in nearly every republic of Central America, this superb crea ture is confined entirely to the heavy oak forests of the higher mountains. In these localities bis shrill scream may be heard at aDy time, yet it is a difficult matter to even catch a glimpse of his brilliant form as he flits from tree to tree, and far more difficult is the task of securing specimens Ap parently fully aware of their beauty and value, these royal birds are ex ceedingly shy and suspicious, keeping entirely to the topmost branches of the tallest trees, frequently far out of shotgun range. This statement is no exaggeration, for the trees often at tain a height of 300 feet.—Outing Mag azine. Did you ever see a woman offer to pay street car fare before the conductor reached for it?

Very few people would intentionally add to another’s load or make his burden in life heavier or his path rougher. Most of the great heart wounds are inflicted by thought less thrusts, flung out often in a mo ment of anger, when perhaps we were too proud to apologize or to try to heal the grievous wounds we had made. Can anything be more cruel than to discourage a soul who is struggling to do the best he can, to throw stumbling blocks in the path of those who are trying to get ou in the world against great odds? No life is just the same after you have once touched it. Will you leave a ray of hope or one of despair, a flash of light or a somber cloud across some dark life each day? Will you by thoughtless cruelty deepen the shadow which hangs over the life, or will you by kindness dispel it altogether? No matter how you feel or what is dis turbing your peace of mind, never al low yourself to send out a discourag ing, a cruel or an unkind word or thought.—Success Magazine. A Lost Dime. A man one day called upon the first John Jaeol* Astor with a business proposition which demanded an in vestment of SIOO,OOO on liis part. While listening to the plan he kept groping and feeling about on the floor for something he seemed to have dropped. When the plan had been explained he said readily: “All right.. I’ll furnish the money.” At that instant a man entered to tell him that one of his buildings had burned down. “That happens nearly every day,” he said, with the utmost unconcern, apd went on feeling about with great care for that something on the carpet Finally the visitor was curious enough to inquire what he had dropped. “1 dropped a dime here a moment ago,” he replied, “and I can’t find it If a man’s buildings burn down they are gone, and he can’t help it. but a man who deliberately throws away 10 cents been use he won’t take t tie trou ble to look for it is not to he forgtven.” The more you think over it the more you will see the good sense in that piece of philosophy A Lazy Boy’s Invention. The long handled shovel has made over $300,000 for its inventor, and the inventor was a lazy, shiftless boy of seventeen named Reuben Davis, whose father lived In Vermont at the time. He set Reuben to digging dirt and loading it on a wagon, and the short handled shovel made the boy's back ache. One afternoon when his father was away he took out the short handle and substituted a long one and found the work much easier. When the father returned home Reu ben got a thrashing, but after the old man had used the shovel himself he said that it was a good thing and got it patented. They are now manufac tured almost by the million. That boy s backache * Announcements. m for Representative.
