Be frank with the world.
Frankness is the child of hones-
ty and courage. Say just what
you mean to do on every occa-
sion and take it for granted you
mean to. do what is right. If a
friend asks you a favor you
should grant it if it- is' reasona-
ble; if it is not tell him plainly
why you cannot. You will wrong
him and yourself by equivoca-
tion of any kind." Never do a
wrong thing to make a friend or
keep one he who requires you
to do so is dearly purchased at
any cost. Deal kindly and firm
ly with all men and you will
find it the policy which wears
best. Above alLdo not appear to
others what you are not. If you
have any fault to find with any
one tell him not others of what
you complain. There is no more
dangerous experiment than that
of undertaking to be one thing
to a man's face another behind
his back. . We should say and
do only what we are willing
should be known and read- by
all men. Exchange.

Brooklyn was thrown into some -
thing akin to panic the other after-1
noon when a Inenu showed turn
a
college psiper of recent date contain-
ing a. poeni written by him when He
was an undergraduate at Brown uni-
versity twenty years ago. The verses
read:

Brooklyn's well known bachelor
jurist seemed to pale- when he read
the lines.
"The ghouls! To dig that from
its grave!" he said. "Heavens! If
this becomes known my political fu-
ture is ruined!" New "York Times.
Blind Skaters. ;
- The Philadelphia Record says
that skating is rapidly becoming a
favorite pastime of the blind and
the more to be encouraged as free-
dom of movement has heen the
greatest drawback to tho happiness
and physical development of the
sightless. A lecturer recently said
wheh'talkingabout tho advances
made along these lines: "Sound as
well as Iignt is reflected from ob-
jects. Those of us who arc used to
watching our steps are not conscious
of this fact. But put a blind person
in a room and the very walls reflect
his position to mm by sound. This
extra development of the sense of
hearing is making many forms of
exercise possible in the gymnasiums
in schools for the blind. Swim-
mmg rowing uicycnng ana even
walking on stilts are among the ex-
ercises and the pleasures of the al-
most blind and totally blind of the
Overbrook institution.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Strange Things round Among the Ani-
mal and PfadlKifo of Australia.
. As most pe??lare aware China
is on. the oth.r sidVof the . world
and the manner and customs of the
Chinese are almost exactly the re-
verse of ours.' But the climate and
the country are jnarh the same. If
-we want to find a country where
nature has turned things topsy tur-
vy that i? according to our no-
tions we must go to Australia.
Jfany things are reversed in Aus-
tralia. It is sutiimer there while it
is winter in America. Trees shed
their bark inste; id of their leaves.
Fruit has the stme or kernej out-
side.' SwtiiJA are black. Tfire is a
species of f! : tha; kills and eats the
spider and a fis i called the climb-
ing perch walks deliberately ontr of
the water and TiththD aid Of its
fins eltmJw the adjacent trees after
insects that infect them. Whea'to
this we add that most of the birds
have no song apd the flowers' no
odors it is easily seea that it Is- the

senses than on. Philadelphia

Born Free and EqUat.
There is a widespread belief that
the words "all men axe born free
and equal" are in the Declaration
of Independence but they are not.
They are however in the constitu-
tion of the state of Massachusetts.
The words in the declaration are
"all men are created equal" which
may mean something very different.
The Massachusetts phrase was writ-
ten by John Lowell grandfather of
the poet James Russell Lowell.
John Lowell was in 1780 a member
of the committee' appointed to draft
the state constitution and being an
earnest abolitionist he inserted that
clause for the purpose of abolishing
slavery in Massachusetts. Chicago

"Old Glory."
As all young folks know Old
Glory is a pet name for our national
flag; but do they know who chris-
tened it so ? An apparently authen-
tic account gives William Driver of
Salem Mass. the honor of being-
the first to use the name. lie was
in 1S31 captain of the brig Charles
Doggett and being about to start
on a voyage to the south Pacific he
was presented with a large Amer-
ican flag for his; vessel. When it
was sent up aloft and broke out to
the air. Captain -Driver christened
it Did Glory.

Why do little birds in their nests

What wind would please a hungry

Origin of a Common Saying.
In a volume of essays written by
an English athr-4a 1815 there is
the story of a boy who by the offer
of liberal compensation was induced
to turn a grindstone for a man who
desired to sharpen his ax. The
promised recompense was never
made and since then of one who
disguises his own selfish aims un-
der an appearance of generosity or
disinterestedness it is remarked
"He has an ax to grind."
The Oldest Timepiece.
The oldest invention for measur-
ing time which history records was
the clepsydra or water clock. The
clepsydra was a glass cylinder grad-
uated into twelve equal parts and
having at the bottom an opening
through which the water escaped in
twelve hours.
