True friendship is found in those who never tire. Don’t imagine because you are doing well that you jon’ tneed your friends. Sometimes we lose our friends by | our indifference. Suspicious persons often say un- wise things. The rail roads made a mint of money from the Young People’s Congress.

Students of Nervous System Say It Is Due to Impulse. Failure to Consider Results Drives Them to Spectacujar Deeds— They Act First and Think Soberly Afterward, Students of the of men and womer called kervism—as it is generaily uc- cepted—simply a pathological indi- cation of hysteria. The for this is in the fact that sv often a person who has no idea of the art of swimming will plunge into water far beyond his depth in the effort to struggling nervous systems frequently have basis one already The point made is that in such cases true heroism is not involved; that hysterical impulse some beyond his powers only prompts the person to the deed. All of which, says the Chicago bune, points to the fact that it is much easier to become a heroine than it is to become a hero. For instance, little Mamie Milti- more, living on the Dugdale road, near Waukegon, is a full fledged heroine because she chased a burgiar han a mile through the ravines nd woods of that section, and only in a burst of speed, he raced up a long hill and outdis- tanced her hopelessly. The child, 13 years old, saw a man breaking into the house of William Butler.

The insidious suit, which steeled the heart of a man and put a proud girl on her mettle, is owned by Miss lie Kerstris, of Upper Roxborough, . Y.
