JESSE M. MEEKS, Pearson, - Georgia. PEARSON TRIBUNE APRIL o, 1918 Tragedy of Childhood. Nothing Is more despicable than to deceive a child In any way. Their plas tic young minds receive and hold Im pressions that we can never eradicate, try we ever so hard. In spite of all the grownups can say the little ones never feel the same love and respect for those who have deceived them* Even careless funmaking may leave the scar which nothing can quite eradi cate. Do not break a promise to a child, and do not lie to It, even In fun, for the great tragedy of childhood Is to lose faith. '>4~ Losses in Battle. In the campaign in Italy In 1859 rifles were used on both sides, and the proportion of casualties to combatants was at Magenta and Solferlno one eleventh. In the Franco-Prusslan war, when both sides were armed with breech-loading rifles, the average pro portion of killed and wounded at Worth, Spicheren, Mars-le-Tour, Grave lotte, and Sedan was one-ninth, the heaviest loss being at Mars-le-Tour, where it was one-sixth, and the small est at Sedan, where It was one-twelfth. All-Conquering Energy. Burton says: "The longer I llveTthe more I am certuln that the great dif ference between men—between the feeble and the powerful, the great and the Insignificant—ls energy, Invincible determination—a purpose, once fixed, and then death or victory! That qual ity will do anything that can be done in the world; and no talents, no cir cumstances, no opportunities, will make a two-legged creature Q man without it.” Onions. Even now few people perfectly real ize the beneficial effect that this vegetable has on the sysr«>m, and It Is too often Ignored on account of Its pungency of flavor and smell. A well-boiled Spanish onion will Induce sleep when most other things fall, and on this account alone It should frequently form a supply dish for the brain-weary man or woman of busi ness. f ' Definition of a Gentleman. A man that is clean inside and out, who neither looks up to the rich nor down on the poor: who can lose with out squealing, and can win without bragging; who Is considerate of wom en, children and old people; who Is too ■brave to lie, too generous to cheat, and lets other people have theirs.— Exchange. Ha&sburg or Hapsburg? Ilnbsburg, as It Is spelled In the or iginal German, the name being derived from the castle of Habsburg, or Hab lchtsburg (Hawk’s Castle), on the bank of the Aar, In the Swiss Canton of Aargau.

Pulling hairs from the tails of horses was the charge against a man in Lon don the other day. He was charged with having stolen four and a quarter pounds of horse hair from a livery company, and the claim was that he had deliberately pulled this out of the tails of the company’s horses. Found guilt?, the man was fined $25. Suffers in Silence. The average millionaire knows how unpopular It Is to he rich, but he goes right along and endures the painful 'responsibilities of wealth, suffering the scorn and calumny of a cruel world In silence, and awaits his vindication beyond the grave.—Houston Post. Most Expensive Wood. The most expensive wood In the world Is said to be the boxwood Im ported from Turkey for the use of engravers. The cost ranges from 4 to 10 cents a square Inch for the best grade.—Brooklyn Standard-Union. Why, of Course. For the first time Buddy saw bouil lon cups and he wondered why they had two handles on. His little pal said, “Huh, don’t you know? When you break off one handle you can use the other.” Roomy. VI had a wash at the Sailors' home and let my clothes dry on me. They were filled up with another ship’s crew."—Halifax Survivor in New York Evening Sun. Easy Thing to Decide. Any man may know whether he Is wise or foolish. If he is wise he can learn something even from a fool. If he Is a fool’lie won't learn even from a wise man. Ever Notice? Tis love that makes the world go 'round. The days you quarrel with your sweetheart everything comes .to a stop.—Louisville Courier-Journal. Just Pass It On. Inquisitive people-are the funnels of conversation; they do not take in any thing for their own use. but merely to pass it to another.—Steele.
