In the first months of the Russia-Japan
war we hail a striking example of the
necessity for preparation and the early
advantage of those who, so to speak,
??have shingled their roofs in dry weath
er." The virtue of preparation has
made historv acd given to us our great
est men. The individual as well as the
nation should be prepared for any emer
gency. Are you prepared to success
fully" combat ihe fi st cold you take? A
cold can b; cured more quickly when
treated as soon as it has been contract
ed and before it has become settled in
the system. Chamberlain's Cough lJe

and "it should be kept at hand rejdy for

In life as possible to pick out the
friends and enemies of success, and in
many cases it will be found that the
greatest enemy resides within himself.
Morbid thoughts, for example, are Infi

Preservation of Meat.
Meat Is commonly preserved by
steeping It In brine. This method,
however, has the undesirable effect of
extracting from the meat much solublo
nutritious matter besides rendering the
;nvat harder and less digestible. An
other way of preserving it is iu air
tight eases. The cases are packed with
aieat aud tilled up with gravy aud are
then hermetically sealed except at ono
point. They are then exposed to heat
above that of boiling water for several
hours, thu-i destroying all the existing
genus and driving out all the air con
tained iu them. The open part Is theu
soldered over. If by any accident the
tiu is not hermetically sealed the meat
will spoil.? American Que?n.
Kneellnif Homes.
In ancient times, before the Invention
of stirrups and luxurious saddles,
horses were taught to kneel to permit
their riders to mount. A beautiful
Oreek vase in one of the museums In
St. Petersburg shows a war horse of
many centuries ago kneeling low be
fore "an amazon. The riders In those
days mounted from the "off" side 1n
contradiction to the modern usage.
Plutarch tells how In the first century
of this era certain effeminate Roman
riders found even the horse block of too
little assistance and had their horses
trained to kneel to them.
Thinking? nnd Doing:.
I have been a great deal happier since
I have given up thinking about what is
easy and pleasant and being discon
tented because I could not have my
own way. Our life is determined for
us, and it makes the mind very free
when we give up wishing and only
think of bearing what Is laid upon us
and doing what Is given us to do.?
George Eliot.
A Witty Diacnoat*.
The object of the duel is said to be
the healing of wounded honor. To try
to cure a wound of the spirit, or, rather,
the temper, by a scrateh on the skin
savors of homeopathy, but may per

ciple of relieving tension by Incision.?
