On Ships' Beds.
The Arundel Castle is the finest boat
I have seen in these 6eas. She is thor
oughly modern, and that statement cov
ers a great deal of ground. She has the
usual defect, the common defect, the
universal defect, the defect that has
never been missing from any ship that
ever sailed—she has imperfect beds,
Many ships have good beds, but no ship
has very good ones. In the matter of
beds all ships have been badly edited,
ignorantly edited, from the beginning.
The selection of the beds is given to
some hearty, strong backed, self made
man, when it ought to be given to a
frail woman accustomed from girlhood
to backaches and insomnia. Nothing is
bo rare on either side of the ocean as a
perfect bed; nothing is so difficult to
make. Some of the hotels on both sides
provide it, but no ship ever does or ever
did. Id Noah's ark the beds were sim
ply scandalous. Noah set the fashion,
and it will endure in one degree of mod
ification or another until the next flood.

TWO WAYS OF LOOKING.
If All Saw Things Alike, This Would Be
an Uninteresting World.
“It is a pity that more of us cannot
cultivate the twofold way of looking at
things,” writes Edward W. Bok in The
Ladies’ Home Journal. “There would
be less friction in life if we did, and
sweeter sympathy, kinder understand
ing and broader and fuller living. The
fact is that we never reach the dignity
of true living unless we do learn this
all important lesson. And that it may
bo cultivated admits of no doubt. It is
simply a question of schooling ourselves
not to condemn generally what indi
vidually does not happen to be to our
taste. If, for example, wo prefer brown
as a color, there is no reason on earth
why we should condemn the taste of
any one who pr eferred to wear groen.
What the vast majority of us need is to
be a little more self poised, more judi
cial, more willing to see good in the
tastes of others., although they do not
please our own particular fancies. It we
all thought alike, read the same books,,
saw the same plays, wore the same col
ors, this would be an exceedingly unin
teresting world.
“We cannot see all things in the
same way, but we can come near to
justice and true respect by taking a two
fold view of things while still retaining
our strong individual views. Seeing a
possible good or use for everything does
not necessairly mean a weak individu
ality. Tho most uncomfortable people
in the world are those who assert their
judgments in a hard, decisive and final
manner, as if they were courts of last
resort. On the other hand, the bright
est and best minds are those that JL we
most respect for the opinions of others. ”

A Shrewd Surmise.
The professor, who by the way was
of Irish extraction, was presiding over
the class in English literature.
“What are the meaning and deriva
tion of the word ‘impediment?’ ”
“ ‘lmpediment’ from the Latin ‘pe
des,’ meaning ‘feet,’ is something in
the way; literally ‘in the way of the
feet.’ ”
“Very well. Someone give me a sen
tence using the word correctly. ”
“He had an impediment in his
speech.”
“That,” quickly retorted the profess
or, with tho flash on his face which al
ways heralded his wit, “must have
been the man who never opened his
mouth without putting his foot in it.”

How He Reached Low H.
The New York Evening Post tells
an amusing story of an experience of
Snazelle ween he began his career as
an opera singer, which will remind
many of other baritones who have
tried to sing “The Creation.” He
had started on his career as a bank
clerk, but after he had, in a fit of for
getfulness, left a thousand sovereigns
on the counter of the Bank of Eng
land (fortunately, they were not
stolen), he concluded that he had
missed his vocation, and tried his luck
as a singer. He got along very well
in Glasgow as Mephistopheles in
“Faust,” and was then engaged to
sing in Hayden’s “Creation.” Un
fortunately, the passage “with sinuous
trace the worm” was several notes too
low for his compass. It happened,
however, that the violoncellist in the
company had an abnormally low bass
voice. A low D was nothing to him.
“You leave it to me,” said the oblig
ing violoncellist. “Open your mouth,
and I’ll give the note.” This was
done. Mr. Snazelle turned his back
to the audience at the critical mo
ment, and a tremendous low Drang
through the hall, whereupon there
was tumultuous applause, and the
singer had an encore.

The San Francisco Argonaut tells
anew story about Stephen Masset, so
well known many years ago as “Jeems
Pipes.” When he was the editor of
the Marysville (Cal.) Herald, Mr.
Hittell, the well known California
pioneer and author, engaged him in
an argument on religion, which Mr.
Hittell attacked, finally winding up
by saying; “See here, Massett, you
ought to get my book on ‘Evidences
Against Christianity’; that will con
vince.” “Very well,” said Massett,
“I will.” So the next time he enter
ed a book store he asked for it. The
clerk showed him the work in two
volumes. “How much is it?" said
Massett. “Three dollars,” replied
the clerk. “What!” exclaimed Mas
sett, “three dollars! 'Fake it back,
sir , take it back; I prefer to remain a
Christian.”

The Kind You Have Always Bought
Signature of
Stop! Women,
And consider that in addressing Mrs.
Pinkham you are confiding your private
ills to a woman —a woman whose ex
perience in treating woman’s diseases
is greater than that of any living phy
sician, male or female.
You can talk freely to a woman when
it is revolting to relate your private
troubles to a man; besides, a man doe*
not understand, simply because he is a
man.
MRS. PINK HAM'S STANDING
INVITATION.
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness a re invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to a woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
conlidenee between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your ease. She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish if she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of ass.stance.
Only a Regular.
Slowly some of the individual acts
of heroism performed in the Spanish
American war are attracting attention.
We have read of one which appears
to us as one of the most touching in
cidents of which we have heard. The
name of the hero was Blair, and he
was a regular soldier. He was shot
through the groin at El Caney. Be
side him, shot down in a worse fix
than he was, were two volunteer sol
diers from New York. Not so very
far off up a tall tree a Spanish sharp
shooter had ensconsed himself and
was firing at the wounded men. The
first shot cut a lock of hair from
Blair’s forehead. The next shot
struck one of the New Yorkers in the
shoulder.
Blair slowly raised himself, brought
his gun quickly to his shoulder and
fired. The Spaniard fell dead.
Blair put down his gun and crawl
ed, terribly wounded as he was, to
where the dead Spaniard lay, nine
hundred feet away, secured his can
teen, and crawled back the nine hun
dred feet. He never touched the
water himself. He lifted up the head
of one of the New Yorkers and pour
ed half of the water down his parched
throat.
Then he lifted up the head of the
other and poured the rest down his
throat.
“I’m a regular,” he said, “you fcl
lows have homes !”
Then he fell back dead.
He was only a regular. We don't
know anything about the; past life of
this man. But somehow we think
that, watching this act of splendid
heroism, the recording angel dropped
a tear upon whatever blots there may
have been and wiped them all away.

The Hoys and Girls.
It is a great thing with the farmer
to keep his boys and girls contented,
and if he can bring them to the point
of finding their own home more agree
able than those of their neighbors, he
will have succeeded. Nothing should
be left undone to bring about this-de
sirable sociable home life. If the
children show a taste for music, culti
vate it, if a taste for reading or col
lecting, or anything else that will tend
to develop them, gratify it. The
farm house that has two or three girls
who can sing or play on the piano or
organ, and perhaps a boy or two who
can accompany them vocally, or with
a violin or guitar, will inevitably be
come a central point of attraction for
the whole neighborhood. The chil
dren will grow up with a certain
frankness and refinement which they
would have otherwise lacked; and
after they have gone out into the
.world to establish interests of their
own, they will look back to the old
home with love and tenderness, in
stead of regarding it as a prison from
which they have but too gladly es
caped.

Indians ns Waiters. ;
“Apropos of Indians as waiters,"
said the social traveling man, ac
cording to the New York Post, 1 dare
say the students from Indian colleges
will do first rate, but I have in mind
the time when it was tried in Nebras
ka in a small town on the Missouri
bottoms, and in a way that was not
altogether satisfactory to the guests
who were waited on.”
“Were you one of them?" asked
the representative of a piano house.
-No, but 1 was at the little river
tavern where it was tried. The girl
waiters had all left for anew big ho
tel that was to be opened in the next
town, and the landlord had to do the
waiting himself, and then he thought
of the Indians at the reservation and
went and hired four of them. They
didn't get around until breakfast was
over the next day—an Indian doesn’t
have any idea of time—and there was
only one man who hadn't eaten.
He was a drummer for a New York
clothing house, and the biggest growl
e in sixteen counties.
“You take his order, Jim,' said the
landlord to the man he had been
drilling. ‘Put this bill of fare under
his nose, give him a glass of ice water,
and may the Lord have mercy on
your sold.”
“Indians are not as low as they
seem, and this was one of the wick
edest bucks on the reservation. He
managed to get the order all right
and carried it in and served it. and
then, towel on arm, he stood at the
back of the guest's chair, as he hail
been instructed to do. But the drum
mer was ugly and swore a big round
of oaths that he would have no In
dian in his.
“At that the grim statue at his
back whipped out a savage dirk from
his store accoutrement, and, holding
it over the head of the grumbling
guests, with consistent Indian brev
ity. accentuated by a Choctaw sweat
word : ‘You eat.’ ' HMM
“And eat he did,’, tlesh and fcwl,
not daring to move a muscle, while
the arm of fate held the murderous
knife within an inch of his visage.
And it was not until he had eaten
everything in sight that his dilemma
was discovered and he was rescued
in the state verging on collapse.
“That particular guest was never
agein heard to complain, but the trial
of Indians as waiters ended then and
there, their methods being quite too
original, or aboriginal, for practical
application,”
