Memory. A joke is being told on an absent minded eastern professor. He was tnk lng somo students to the country to study rocks. At tho station he said, "We haven't a watch. We'll need one or we'll miss the train back. John, run home nnd get mine." "Have I time before the train comes?" John asked. "Yes," said tho professor, pulling out his watch, "you have about 15 minutes." No faculty of tho brain Is as un reliable ns memory. That's why man makes the same mistakes over and over.

If WHS spoken by Alnn Brock after the boy, David, hud stood for n minute terri fied on the brink of a roaring torrent, and then, still sick with the fear of It, leuped ncross. To Alnn Brock, the leap meant lit tle. It required no courage for him to innkc It, for ho knew very little of fear. But for the boy, who did the thing lie feared us ho feared death, It was a real act of heroism. The only real courage consists In doing the .thing we nro afraid to do. The hulking prizefighter of the John Sullivan type, who has as much im agination ns a grizzly bear, Is not brave. He Is sure ho lb going to win. It takes no courage to go Into n win ning fight. The bully is never brave. In fact he Is always n coward. Feeling sure thnt his superior size will carry him through, he picks quarrels as a pleas ant method of passing his time. Put this same bully Into the ring with a largo hungry tiger, face him with n man who looks as if he en Joyed shooting bullies ns much ns the bully enjoys thrashing his physical Inferiors, and all the courage oozes out of the bully. You will never know whether you are brave or not till you find yourself In a position whero you nro afraid to do something that ought to be done If you do it, you have courage. If you shrink from it and quit, you have not.

Uncommon Srnn JOHN CllbC BLAKE ncss to tuko a chance, to attempt sonic dangerous thing for the kind of cour- age that counts. It is not n bravo but n very foolish mnn who walks a tight rope over Nlngnro fnlls. It is n brave mnn, who not wanting to die, nnd knowing thnt an operation mny send him out or the world, cheerfully goes to the table, to take the one chnnce thnt may menu his continued support of his wife or his dependents. Often the timid school boy, who fenrs to quarrel, nnd tries his best to keep his peace with his fellows, gets the nnnie of coward. But when this same boy has to fight for whnt he thinks is his honor, or to save a little boy from n bully, he becomes a very dangerous fl&hter. ltenl courage Is not daunted by pnln. Tho boy or the mnn who lights when he Is nfrntd to, stops being afraid of anything, pain, or n black eye, or punishment. He fights because he has courage, nnd ho usually wins. There Is more real courage 'i this world than you fancy. It Is behind all great achievement. If you have It, you are fortunate. But don't be sure, cither thnt you have or thnt you Jinven't It till you hnve done or re fused to do something you were afraid to do. (Copyright.) THE ROMANCE OF WORDS "QUARANTINE" Hp HE origin of n term of 40 days a "qunrantlno" as a sanltnry precaution ngalnst tho spread of vnrlous diseases Is lost In the dim mazes of early ori ental history. Forty dnys was the period devoted In ancient times to the burial of the dead. Tho spies of tho Israelites spent 10 dnys In Canaan before they submitted tho report. Jonah gave tho residents of Nlncweh 40 days in which to consider his prophecy nnd repent. Christ, Moses and Elijah each fasted for 40 days the Christian observ ance of Lent being a commemor ation of the most notable of these. Under William the Con queror no man was permitted to remain In England more than 40 days without paying a tax of some kind, while under the Magna Charta It Is provided thnt a widow shall remain 40 dnys In the house of her decensed husbund before being allotted her dowry. The modem snnltnry adapta tion of the quarantine was es tablished by tho French along the Mediterranean In order to prevent the Introduction of plague from the eustern coun tries, but apparently the only reason for tho arbitrary setting of such a "time Is thut It forms one of the periods resulting from a division of tho lunar year by the mystic numbor nine. (Copyright.) SCHOOL DA1JS Something to Think About By F. A. WALKER GIVE THE BEST TO GET the best from life you must irlvn flm Vincf In whatever position you may be, there should be no reluctance to make a fair exchange In which measure for measure, is given on both sides In ab solute sincerity. That you should make a fashion of doing this encourages others who are taking note of you to do likewise. They find through experience that there comes with continued actions of this kind an Inexpressible gladness which fills their hearts with friend ship and lightens their countenances with sunny complncency. There are no pleasurable experi ences of this sort felt by those who aro constantly complaining about the short-comings of others, forgetful all the while of their own. You cannot feel the balmy air of spring mornings unless you go forth Into the glorious outdoors und becomo a part of It, nor can you give to oth ers If you have nothing to give. That you should waste your days In Ignorance of this fundamental truth underlying happiness Is n deplorable error, which, ns the yenrs pass softly over you, graying your hairs and mnrk Ing little lines upon your face, often becomes n burden almost too heavy for self-respect. You cannot have tho- best without divorcing from your heart all forms of selfishness, egotism, jealousy, cov etousness, doubt and pride. Your kit of fine sentiments mny be packed to the top, but unless you shnll stoop, open the bag, take out each sen lment one by one nnd use them ns u GUfteOlAN ANGELS cor.aHT 3WJ- plumber uses his tools In dally life, the opportunity to get the best In life will never come to you. Like diamonds, such Inspirations must bo cut and polished to bring out their beauty, brilllnncy nnd worth. High-born Ideas, unless put to use nt their birth, soon become rusty nnd of no value. In your privacy yon may fondle them nnd dream of the wonderful things you Intend to do, but If you replace them time nnd again In the old worn bundle without attempting to test their value In noble work you aro not making nn effort to get tho best, or even a portion of tho best, waltfng anywhere for every man nnd woman willing to sacrifice, help others und give tho best within them.

WHAT TO EAT IF ONE has nn old fashioned Scotch kettle with an Iron cover there are bo muny toothsome dishes which may bo prepurcd by cooking in it.

Tho secret of this kind of cooking Is in keeping as little water as possible to steam nnd cook the meat. Each piece will fee moist, brown, and well cooked. Tho reasoning is added when tho chicken has been first browned. Parsnips. Cook fresh hard parsnips In boiling salted water until taador. Peel nnd III cut In halves lengthwise.
