Windows of Life.
Every call and challenge of life hns
it* appropriate window. Some are of
stained-glass variety, heavy lead
ed, hut permitting no vision. The win
dow itself is the thing beautiful and
beholder is not expected to see be
yond it. Even the sunlight is changed
as it passes through the glass. Such
windows are usually stationary and
arc the end in themselves. The clouds
ami sunshine influence what Is within
but nothing without can enter. Other
windows are of the prism variety.
They give rainbow effects but reveal
nothing ns It really is. Such windows
bewitch and enslave, but never reveal
the outer life or permit the Inner self
to flow out into the great throbbing,
panting world. These windows adorn
and beautify, but we need the crystal
glass to help us get the far vision and
grow upon the lessons of life.—Grit.

A jarring crash of lightning inter

of 1,250 sheep on the range above the

200 feet brought them to their charge*,
says Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Striking the close-gathered thick, the
lightning hnd cut two wide swaths,

iltese swaths and on either stile, the
animals were not touched.

Seeks Invigorating Influence.
Life's greatest need is to expose it
self to enlightening and invigorating
influences. The world is impatient to
impress itself on the individual. Like
excluded sunshine It needs hut an
opening to flood itself unstintedly into
every nook and, cornel 1 of possible in
fluence. That does not mean that mind
grows by passive acceptance of every
thing that seeks entree, ft just means
that the materials upon which the
wind should react to grow properly are
rill about us trying often In vain to
bestow niton us the benefits we need
but studiously reject. Everything
about us, from bird song to perspir
ing toil, can In 1 mailt 1 to minister to
nnr well-being if we will turn it to
account. There's more opportunity
about most of ns titan we are aide to
use. If we grow prematurely old and
tiresome it’s because we do not open
the windows.

The official record for a parachute

Handle Gasoline Carefully.
Those who handle gasoline as a mat
ter of ordinary custom are often quite
oblivious to its potential dangers. An
English journal tells of a motorcyclist
v Ito removed the cover of his electric
horn and flushed it out with petrol.
Having replaced the cover he start
ed for a ride.
At the first attempt to use the
horn the result was startling, for
there was a terrific explosion and the
cover crashed into the rider's ribs.
The horn was. of course, full of ex
plosive mixture, which was ignited by
the electric spark.
To Spell at Pleasure.
An Iowa professor urge* that every

probably would not save much time for

typewriter to do the writing and the
adding machine to do the arithmetic,
and history discarded as useless, free
dotn In spelling would go far to do
away with the need of any schools at
all.—St. Raul Pioneer Press.

HAD QUITE A SIEGE
In Hospital, But Improved Greatly After
Taking Ziron Iron Tonic.
In a recent statement, J. H. Martin
of Mount Vernon, Ga., says:
"I was in the hospital with Htomach
trouble and had quite a siege. It
seemed I would never get my strength
back aftpr I came out, 1 had been sc»
111. I ached all over. I was nervous,
restless and yet did not feel like get
ting around. My skin was yelle<y. My
appetite poor. I was in pretty bad
shape and began to look around for a
tonic. I felt like part of the trouble
was lack of iron In my blood. I was
so easily worried, bo easily upset. I
heard of Ziron and knew it would help
me. I began to take it and the im
provement was great. It strength
ened me, renewed my nerves and
toned up my system.”
When you feel that you need
strength, remember that Ziron is a
perfected preparation ’ of Iron salts,
combined with other strength-giving
ingredients. Try Ziron.
