In an article entitled “Have You Some Imaginary Troubles?” the Ameri can Magazine says: “Gladstone was .another one of those hard workers, with no dreads with regard to work, turning from political responsibilities of the heaviest to Greek for recrea tion, and living his fourscore years and more, just as Pope Leo XIII turned to Latin poetry for his relaxation from world-wide burdens, and lived on beyond four-score and ten, living so hopefully that when, at the little dinner given him on his ninetieth birth day, one of the cardinals said, in pro posing a toast to him: ‘Here’s that you may live to be a hundred, Holy Fa ther, the old pontiff replied. ‘But why limit me to a hundred?’ They were contemporaries of Itanke, the German historian, who at the age of ninety-one proposed to write a history of the world in 12 volumes, one volume to be completed each year, and actually lived, I believe, lo complete nearly half of it. These men hud no dreads; but they allowed their energies to work on, without any fear of exhausting their vitality.” Palestine a Small Country. Nearly all the events in the history of Israel that are recorded in the Old Testament happened within a territory no bigger than the state of Connecti cut, whose area is 4,800 square miles, and into hardly any other country has there been crowded from the days of Abraham tiM our own so much history —that Is to say, so many events that have been recorded in the annuls of mankind. Nor is it only that Palestine is really a small country. Tiie traveler con stantly feels us he moves about that It is a small country. From the heights a few miles north of Jerusalem lie sees, looking nothward, a far-off sum mit carrying snow for eight months In the year. It Is Herrnon, nearly 10,000 feet high—llermon, whose fountains feed the rivers of Damascus. —Na- tional Geographic Magazine. Get Unwelcome Task Done. No unwelcome task becomes the less unwelcome by putting them off till to morrow. It Is only when they are be hind us and done that we begin to find that there Is sweetness to he tasted afterward and that the remembrance of unwelcome duties, unhesitatingly done, Is welcome and pleasant. “If there be lying before you any bit of work from which you shrink, go straight up to It and do It at once. The only way to get rid of it is to do it.” These are the wise words of a Scotchman, Alexander MacLaren, and their wisdom will make life very much happier for ail of us, if only we let it. Relax and Rest. The habit of relaxing is an excellent one, especially just a while previous to sleeping time, for in this way one prepares the mind and body for that subconscious lapse which restores health and vitality. One way to In duce relaxation and sleep is a fresh wholesome condition of body, and so the matter of the daily bath is an im portant detail to he considered, in deed, very often when body and mind seem too weary to rest the hot or coid bath proves the one thing that will induce sleep, for, besides cleansing the body, It settles and calms the nerves, and consequently Invites relaxation. No Chesterfield. “Some men have the worst man ners!” Indignantly declared Clnudine of the rapid fire restaurant. “Why, this morning when me and Helolse were talking about the bartenders’ bull last night, a bald headed guy kept hollering about a couple of cock roaches in his soup. Of course, He lolst* bawled him out by wanting to know if he expected to find whippoor wills in it, but by that time the rush was on, and it was more than an hour before she got to ask me what I thought Goldie PeLoy meant by what she said to Hughie Bank.”—Kansas City Star. j Early Egyptian Wills. Precious little Is known about the manner of settlement of disputes pos sible to arise from disagreements con nected with the execution of wills at the earliest date in Egyptian history. That there were law courts, disputants and judges is beyond doubt, although exact pictures of law courts are ex ceedingly difficult to Imagine. Since wills were perhaps common only among the most wealthy nobles, there would be little reason to believe that trials which might result from them did not sometimes take place in the king’s court Will Appear in Person. The few unhappy experiments of having the hero and heroine of the picture appear in person, and in the same costume, would show that tt is wiser to keep our favorites within their frames as works of art. I saw a film favorite who appeared grandly heroic in his picture, but who, when he stepped upon the- stage to make his personal appearance, in the im mensity of the proscenium arch looked like a canceled postage stamp. —Rob Ragner, in Saturday Evening Post.

Not exactly; he isn’t living with them—he’s living on them.” CHURCH DIRECTORY. PEARSON MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH. Elder O. O.
