I The most inevitable nnd .one of tho easiest of the things vc do Is to j;row old. Vet whnta difference there Is In lbeway different people do It I You probably know, for Instance, some little old lady who, although she may not be beautiful or brilliant, Is Just "nice" which is apt to mean that Instead of bossing or scolding, he tries not td be troublesome or unrea sonable to those around her. Or ruth er, she does not have to try, for It is characteristic of elderly human beings that they seldom try very hard to form new habits. Youth Is the period of endeavor, and old age of results. This lis the reason for the futility of young folks' displeasure at their parents' "old-fashioned'' Ideas. Such Ideas are fixed; they will not change. Vet not all elderly people are age hound In their thoughts; many can be tolerant of Innovations, and n few can even adopt them. Such a flexible con dition of the elderly mind Is, like the rigid, Intolerant sort, a product of earlier life and habits; it Is not likely to. Indicate any particular good or evil trait In the person possessing It. If the young man or woman who feels impatient at the old folks' no tions will cease to shrug a shoulder and exclaim: "I hope I'm not like that when I'm old," and will turn his Attention to the younger gorierallon, hfarllng with himself, hi- Is likely to )o much more for human progress. When he hlniK'lf has reacjied tl age i( fixed Ideas his character will de pend on his previous habits of mind ; If, he has kept himself free from prej udice and cocksurcdncKs and has hern always willing to learn better ways of 'thinking and doing, he will be likely toreiuula correspondingly more ration al, with advancing years, and will, in truth not be "llko that" when he Is oli).

Japanese do things in public for wfhleh we would ostracise n man or fcend him to the lockup.

They will hold their fans before tnvlr mouths when talking or yawning, hh,(Io we. but will cough and sneeze In your face on street cars. And yet, nnjong the refined, observance of cus tom Is pathetically beautiful. They come to celebrate the arrival of the cherry blossoms by bringing with them tjittlr geisha and their children; they oVe In pe rftet hordes ; they go to the station In musses to sec off some friend or relative and crowd the plat tonus, bowing and bowing and bowing ifrn as though there weren't a thou Wftfid strangers passing before them; tey dress, undress, eat, sleep and ilrmk whisky by the tumblerful on the trains yet their Inner lives ure as secret- to one another ns they seem to lie .to the foreigner. )t Is as though from behind the r.-'enes In which many people are nioie interested than In the play It Jl.i' the actors had come, fprgettlng, lp 'n moment of absent-mindedness, to jhit on their make-up, or had come I'jtnn the street, forgetting to take It of, Sydney Oreenble, In "Japnn, Heal uiid Imaginary," t Moral Forces.

"The shooting," fnys n Texas man, "occurred some yenrs ngo on the Pom handle branch of the Santa Fe, and the hero of the tale wns a superstitious engineer who believed In 'warnings.' "One night he was rolling along nt a good? speed, when he saw a clear, white light, 'Jlko n will-o'-the-wisp, dauclng over the track a few hundred feet In front. He shut off steam and came to a stop as quickly as he could. The conductor and train crew came running up to the engine to see what was the matter. " There is some one swinging a Inn tern across the track,' said the engi neer, and the crew went ahead to In vestigate. " 'We can't find anyone,' reported the rear brakeraan, and the engineer pulled out again, but he went slowly, and In a few minutes stopped again. The crew went nheud once more to see what was the cause of the light. The conductor, who was n good shot, drew his revolver, and ntflils second shot there was a crash, a scream, and the light went out, and something white came fluttering down from (lie clouds. "The englnepr wns scared. 'You've shot an angel, sure,' he Mild lo tho conductor, with n face as pale as death. "Investigation brought out the fart Hint n small buy, with a limtern tied to the tail of a kite, was the cause of the trouble; but for a long time It leased the engineer to be asked about 'Minotlng nngels.' " HIGH PLACE FOR LEWIS CASS Was Instrumental In Setting Up Amer ican Form of Government In' Western Territories. "Those who pushed the frontier west ward were themselves the products of frontier conditions," suys William B.. Shaw in the American Review of Re views. "Such u lender was Lewis Cass, a native, of New Hampshire, who went out as a youth to the settle ments that were soon to be organized Into the state of Ohio, took piirt In lawmaking there, served as a volun teer ofllcer lit the war of 1812, was ap pointed governor of Michigan terri tory, and for many years was engaged In the difficult tusk of setting up nn American form of government In re gions that had barely emerged from the wilderness stage. "That Lewis Cass was In after years a United States Renator from Michi gan, a member of cabinets, a diplomat and nn unsuccessful aspirant for the presidency may have partially blinded us to the really important services that he rendered In the pioneer period of Michigan's history. Neither he nor any of the men' of his day could have foreseen the strain that was to be put on the states created out of the old Northwest territory caused by the at tempt to absorb vast populations of northern Kuropean blood Into the citi zenship. "I,ewls Cass lived to see great' ar mies recruited among thoso newly made Americans to fight for the Union anil the principles of uutlonalltywhlch he had himself defended throughout his career." First Payment of Rent. It would be hard to find exact rec ords of the first rent paid. It Is said that when the Germans conquered parts of (Inul, thu hind was parceled out to chiefs, lieutenants and private soldiers. In return the holders of tho lands promised military service when needed. Some of tlie land was given to favorites, who were allowed to pay In money Instead of service, and the system was established. Rent was certainly known In the days that Rome nourished, there being Latin names for rent under long leasehold tenure; rent of a farm, ground rent, rent of state lands and the annual rent pay able for the right to tho perpl'tuul en joyment of anything built on the sur face of tho land. Ancient Bible. A Bible belonging to Htlznhcth Had don, a Quakeress, printed In Ifitttl, bus been discovered In the F.at. The Had don Bible Is sixteen years older than the IteluiN Testament sometimes spoken of as "the oldest Bible." Thu Hiiddou Bible Is an authentlu "Great" Bible. It is also a "Treacle" Bible. Coverdale, the translator, rendering "Tho Prophecye of Jeremye," gave the reading "I am bevy and abafhed ; Is there no trlaelo at Gylyad." This In the King James modern version reads "halm In (Ulead." The Hnddnn Bible Is Indeed "Great." It weighs IS pounds, and Its dimen sions" are; Thickness, -1J Inches; Width, 10?; Inches, length, UHi Inches. Detroit News. Few Do Much Walklna. Statistics of mankind's ambulation, including jouug children anil old per sons, and taking Into coiiNUK-rntloii the fact that nowadays Uieiu are llu: Inclination uiid (lie facilities to ride more uud walk less Hum our fore father did, show that n fair estimate of the average distance walked dur ing the 2-t hours by the men, women uud children of continental United StMes seems to be four miles.

We live nt the crossroads of the 1 nations, remarks the Luxemburg Zel tung. We ore of all the peoples of the world those most cosmopolitan In spirit. On July 14 there was a French evening on the parade grounds, and everyone was enthusiastic for France. On July 20 we had a Uelglan evening in the same place and again everyono was Inspired with enthusinsm. Should there be nn American, Italian, Czeeho Slovac or Polish evening any pleasant summer night, the throng would greet It with the same enthusiasm. We like to have people, of other nations as our guests. We wish them to feel at home In our midst. ' - A stranger who does not know us and many who have lived among us fall to know us might fancy that Wo lack national sentiment. Rut precisely the reverse Is true. Our national sentiment Is so deep that we arc like a tree whose trunk stands unshaken when Its crown Is rustled by the wind of sympathy for other countries. Last Wednesdny, after our French and Relglnn evenings, we had n Luxem I 'irg evening. The parade ground was loo small and the firmament was too low to contain the onthuMosm of the multitude. We were at home among ourselves. Tho leader had provided a program of old, modem, and very leccnt Luxemburg music. During the choruses the thousands surrounding the platform stood as reverently as If they were In chinch. When -applause was called for It was so thun derous ns to be almost intlmldntlng. The depth and sincerity of a na tion's patriotism Is not measured by the area of Us territory. FEAR EPIDEMIC OF TYPHUS British Authority Tells of Danger to the World Because of Bad Condi tions In Russia. Dr. L. linden Guest of London, who has been Investigating conditions In Russia, reports to the Lancet (Lon don) that the whole of that country has been swept by typhus ami relaps ing fever, and that all Indications point unmistakably to a formidable epidem ic In the coming winter. Cholera also has made Its appearance and small pox Is widely prevalent. The Lancet warns the world at large that unless Immediate and ef fective steps bo tnken these frightful diseases will spread through the bor der stntes to other countries, nnd be foro long will appear nil oyqr the world. "The council of tho League of Nations has thoroughly studied the situation, with thu uld of some of the best-known epidemiologists In the world; Ihoy have a reasonable and economical program, and hnve appoint ed commissioners, but the actual work cannot proceed until they hnve obtained money guarantees from the different nations, which so far have not materialized, except In thu case of a few count rles, Including Great Britain nnd Canada. The future of tho matter may well prove, In the par lance of the day, nn 'acid test' of the reality of the league as a family of nations, ready to act for the common good and to protect members of the fnmlly who are threatened by disaster."
