Big guns do not always get tin* big game. The death of self is the life of the soul. Blank cartridges will often ma. o the most noise. The best healing may come* from t he lowliest herbs. Our losses and our gains are the true estimate of life. A gloomy region is as rnislead leading as a glistening sin. Only the unworthy cause will use unworthy means. Tea Leaves. It requires about four pounds of fresh leaves to make one pound of dried tea. The teas of India and Ceylon are mainly dark or “black*’ tea. though green teas are made front the same plant.

OASTOHIA. The Kind You Haw Aiwa)* Doa# i T* How a Little Girl Decided a Question of Ownership. “Every Child Her Own Solomon’' is a text that may come up for dis cussion in some of the clubs after the color question is disposed of, now that little Miss Kohlsaat has argued and won a case of her own. The little girl lost a much beloved pet dog some time ago and recently saw it riding in a carriage with a handsomely gowned woman. The carriage was going very slowly and near the pavement, and the little girl delightedly called her pet by name. With a whine of joy the ani mal sprang from the vehicle and, running to little Miss Kohlsaat, be gan jumping about her and licking her hands for sheer joy. “You can’t have my dog, little girl,” called the woman from her carriage, which had now drawn up to the curb. “But this is my dog,” said little Miss Kohlsaat. “No; it is my dog,” said the wom ! an. “I’ll prove that it, is mine,” re | plied little Miss Kohlsaat, with the : blood born of determination und justice. Bv this time quite a crowd of i children and passersby had collect | ed, and the girl, with the dog in her arms, faced her antagonist as a law i yer faces a jury. “Can your dog stand up and beg?” “Yes,” answered the woman. “Can he jump through a hoop?” “Yes.” “Can he lie down and play dead?” “Yes.” “Can he dance on his hind feet?” “Yes.” “Can he say his prayers?” “Yes.” Closing her arms tightly about the dog and starting to walk away, the child cried triumphantly: “Well, ray dog can’t! He is mine then!” A nrl the An Art of Cratltndr. A gentleman saved the life of a clothes dealer who had been capsized lu a boat. The latter was profuse Id bis thanks and said to bis rescuer: “1 see that jon have spoiled jour clothes on this auspicious occasion. Allow roe to take the opportunity of handing yon my business card.
