H Smith was a model for f uncial discourses. Tho chinch Wk.'- crowded and ministers are too apt to avail themselves of tho oc casion of un unusually largo audience to Bhow how long and nrgumentatlwly they can talk. They are apt to thliik of themselves and the einpressloti or their ability they can create, instead of the dead and the son owing rela tives and frltnulH. Rev. Hates did uot talk to exceed ten minutes and hlrf "re marks weicoonllned to the character of Mrs. Smith as a "patient, faithful, wife, a devoted mother and a constant friend." Having said the words appropriate to tho suhject and the occasion, lie had the good sense to stop and kleave the effect of his brlof eulogy unspoiled by tiresome repetitions and tedious cir cumlocutions. The entire sermon . could have becirprlnted In less than a column of the Chief. The Chief has spoken before of the absurd practice of preaching Idg discourses, In private bouse while the men aroobllged to wait outside, where they,, can hear nothing and would not appreciated if they could hear. If a rtnnon is to be preached, let It bo in n church aud let it be coutlned to the feharaotor of the deceased. 1 Tim in comments on how to nttaln old ngo aro mado by a writer In tlui Journal of tho American Medical Ahso elation: "Tho chances of attaining old ago aro much greater If wo live much of ,our llfo in fresh country air.

"To attuln old ase we bate to re lieve ourselves from worry, strain and anxieties, withdraw periodically from tho whirl of effortful exlitence, modify our diet, omit tho ueo of ntlniulants and narcotics, and spend reasonably long periodB of time under pleasant conditions In practical retirement.

Frederick VII. of Denmark Unable to Appreciate Sentiment That Was Part of Violinist's Being. In writing of her experiences in America, Madamo do Hagcrmann-Lln-dencrono tolls of the arrival at Cam bridge of Ole Hull, tho famous vio linist: "Olo Hull (tho great violinist) has tnken James Russell Lowel's house In Cambridge. Ho is remarried and lives hero with his wife and daughter. Ho has a magnificent head, and that broad, cxpanslvo smile which seems to belong to geniuses. Liszt had ono like it. "Ho and Mrs. Hull come horo often on Sunday evenings, nnd sometimes ho brings his violin. Mrs. H. accompanies him. and ho plays divinely. There Is no violinist on earth that can compare wl'h hln. There may bo many who have as brilliant a technique, but nono who has bin feu uacie and tho tre mendous magnetism which creates such enthusiasm that you are carried away. Tho sterner sex pretend tnat they can resist him, but certainly no woman can. "Ho li verv nroud of showing tho diamond In his bow, which wns given him by tho king of Sweden. "Ho loves to tell tho story of KIl-i Frederick VII. of Denmark, who paid to him: 'Whore did you learn to play tho violin? Who was your teacher?' "Olo Hull answered, 'Your majesty, tho pine forests ot Norway and tho beautiful fjords taught me!' "Tho king, who had no feeling for such high-flown sentiments, turned to ono of his aides-de-camp and suld, 'Sllc ken vrovl!' dhu Danish for 'What rub bish!" Harper's Magazine. The Winer Bros. Go.

Next comes tho merit of the Eooda. Upon the lnttor ilninnda whether the dealer holds his trade. Many Ingeuloim methods aro employed In salesmanship. The art becomes closely related to human ua ture. An Albany cigar dealer has dem onstrated explicitly jUBt how Mr the eyo enters into the queBtlon. Ho dlHeovered ho was stocked with a brand of cigarettes that wero prov ing "stickers." Instead of reducing tho price and consaquontly losing money, or brlv clearlnu at cost, he devised a new method. He ranged a half do'on boxes along tho top of his show cacre. Each was Inclosod In a glaeo cr.se of its own. Naturally tho at tention of the customer was attracted by their Individuality. Those cigarettes were ulsposeu or at a profit.

As soon as 'the guest was settled by the fireside on the Sund. evening his host aiksd him: "Are you a tee totaller?" "Well, no: not exactly,' the clergy man admitted.

A cure for mushroom poisoning dis covered by Dr. 'Louis. Olivier, one of tho most -distinguished chemists ot France, has Just been presented be fore tho Society of Comparative Path ology. After a demonstration that mushroom poisoning destroys the red rnrnusclcB of the blood, he stated that his neutralizing arent was a serumi from a sheep. The preparation was extremely simple. He drew the blood from a sheep and allowed it to coagu late, the liquid resulting being his serum. This be lnjectsd into the Ttins of a human being. In tne country dis tricts of France there are annually hundreds of seriouB cases 'of mush room poisoning, which the societynow hopes may be easily cured. Church and State. There Is a very emphatic provision in tho constitution of the United StateB against any union of church and state in this nation.
