are happening of real interest to every
citizen that a daily newspaper is now a

han come to our notice is the Daily
State Journal without Sunday from now
until January 1 1907 for only 50 cents
This is such a small price that it can
only be made to introduce the paper
into new homes The publishers claim
that this is not a scheme to get you on
their books and then keep on sending
but that the paper will be stopped on
January 1 1907 It would be hard to
find a better way of investing 50 cents
It arouses energy develops and stim
ulates nervous life arouses the courage
of youth It makes you young again

DETERMINING LEVELS f r
Method Which Every Mnn May Be
IIIm Own Surveyor
A simple way of roughly determin
ing levels nnd one which can readily
be practiced by any one nnd which has
the advantage of not requiring any
special apparatus Is by means of a
spirit level and a board with a straight
edge The way to go about It is this
First determine on two points the lev
els of which you wish to know and
drive stakes into the ground Then
take a board with a straight edge and
tack it to a tree If one happens to be
available in a line with these two
stakes Put the board at such a height
that you caa readily sight over it and
carefully level this bonrd by means of
the spirit level Then sight it over to
ward one of the stakes having some
one at that stake who will by means
of a small piece of paper locate the
point at which your line of vision cuts
it In other words where a line pro
jected from your sighting board would
strike the stake Make some sort of
mark at this point and then sight to
the other stake in the same way and
mark the point where the line would
strike it By measuring distances that
these two points are above the ground
you can get the difference In levels
with reasonable accuracy For In
stance if 3our line of vision has cut
one stake eight feet from the ground
and the other one five feet from the
ground then obviously the difference
In level is three feet or in other words
the vicinity of the stake on which the
mark is five feet from the ground is
three feet higher than the other stake
and you will have a three foot fall
from draining from this point to the
other Fanning
THE ELOQUENT NUDGE
An Incident IlluMrutiitr a Trnit In
Womans Nature
Do you see the woman walking in
front of us there asked the man with
the fashionable tie to the friend who
was strolling up Broadway with him
Do you notice anything particularly
striking about her Nothing except
that she is very well dressed Thats
what I would say- Now Ill bet you
half a dollar that when she passes the
three women walking just ahead of her
all three will nudge each other simul
taneously
The woman behind was walking
faster than the three in front nnd she
soon passed them The three women
looked her over from foot to head then
nudged each other with their elbows as
if possessed with the same thought
How did you know it inquired the
friend as the other pocketed the half
dollar
I didnt know it was the reply If
I had it would have been taking an un
fair advantage of you to bet But I
was reasonably certain of it There is
a certain indescribable something in
some womens manner appearance and
carriage that causes all other women to
nudge each other at sight 6f her I
couldnt tell you just what it is but Im
ready to put up a wager on it every
time The nudge is simply a part of
womens sign language which means
something that cannot be put into
words but which every other woman
understands New York Press
The Word Crank
Crank in the sense of an eccentric
person is a new word The very first
written instance of crank in the mod
ern sense that could be found for Dr
Murrays dictionary was in the reports
of the trial of Guiteau President Gar
fields murderer Guiteaus reference
to somebody as a crank gave the word
a vogue that has gone on spreading
But the adjective cranky was known
In 17S7 as meaning sickly the German
krank and to Dickens in the senses
of cross and crochety In all its mean
ings it springs from the root idea of
crookedness as does crank In its six
teenth century sense of a deceitful
trick as in quips and cranks
The History of Tacltns
The entire history of Tacitus as we
have the work was regained from a
single copy found In the fifteenth cen
tury in a monastery of Westphalia
That we should owe the works of this
author to one copy is a remarkable cir
cumstance for the Emperor Tacitus
who claimed to be a descendant of the
historian had copies of the history
placed in every library of the empire
and each year had ten copies transcrib
ed for presentation to scholars All It
seems perished save the Westphalian
copy
The Great Difficulty
One half of the worlds happiness is
solved when a person learns to mind
his own business
Yes but Its the other half that
causes the most trouble
Whats that
Getting other people to mind theirs
