Covering Books.
To cover paper bound books take
two pieces of cardboard , a tiny bit
larger than book. Paste fly leaves at
front and hack to cardboard , which
of course is outside. Then take a
stiip of strong cotton cloth , paste
it down back of book , have it wide
so it will cover about one inch of
each piece of cardboard , tberehy join
ing the two pieces together. Now
put a cover of brown paper over all ,
pasting securely , and your decorated j
cover goes over this. '
The books may be covered with
decorated silk , pique or duck if you
paint or embroider , but the simplest
way is to cover witb tissue paper
( not crepe ) . Paste a pretty card on
the front and after cutting title and
author's name from old cover arrange
ihem prqttily on the new one. ?

' A strange story comes from China
bf a remarkable operation for nppendi-
jcitis performed by Mrs. William U.
'Logan , wife of a medical missionary
) n China. When living in the far in-
lerlor of that vast country , 800 miles
from the nearest doctor , her husband
'was stricken with appendicitis. Dr.
.Logan saw that his only chance of re
covery lay In an operation which ho
asked his wife to perform according
to Instructions which he gave her. A
'more appalling position for a human
; being to be placed in could scarcely
'be imagined ; but this heroic woman ,
[ who , might , perhaps , have screamed if
[ a mouse had run over her feet , placed
( her husband under an anesthetic , and
jwith her unskilled hand successfully
( removed his appendix. Afterward ,
when he had rallied sufficiently to be
moved , she took him 800 miles by
wagon and rail to a physician , who
completed the cure.
A farmer named Ed Armstrong was
.driving a bunch of cattle along the
iroad near Salinas the other day , when
a couple of automobile enthusiasts
'caine ' tearing along at a tremendous
jspeed. Armstrong feared that his cat-
lie would become frightened and stam
pede , so he held up his hand and asked
jthe automobillsts to wait until he could
'get his herd in shape. The men only
'laughed ' at him , and continued going
at full speed , defying Armstrong to
catch them. He applied the spurs to
hiis horse , took down his rlata from the
saddle , and was swinging the loop
preparatory to landing It over their
fheads , when the courage of the occu-
'pants ' of the car waned , and the ma
chine was brought to a sudden stop.
The drivers waited patiently while the
cattleman drove his herd to one side
of the road , and , after thanking them
kindly , he allowed them to pass , with
out even so much as referring to the
'ugly ' disposition th'ey had shown un
til he had forced them to wait.
DUTIES OF THE CARDINAL.
Church Dignitaries Must Hare
Some Exceptional Qualities.
The title of cardinal makes its first
appearance In history In the fourth
century , and church authorities de
clare that the name means "princi
pal , " and that it is also derived from
the Latin "cardo , " the hinge or pivot
of a door. In the early days certain
principal churches in Italy were
known as cardinals , and the title of
cardinal was sometimes given the
chief pastors that directed them. To
this day the canons of the cathedrals
of Milan , Ravenna , Salerno , Naples ,
Cremona , Compostella and Barri wear
scarlet robes while officiating in the
sanctuary. Pope Pius V. ordered them
to relinquish the title of cardinal that
was given them "by courtesy , " though
Jhey retain their robes.
It is a remarkable fact that , though
the office of cardinals is the highest
in the gift of the church next to that
of pontiff , it may be bestowed on any
member of the Catholic church , layt
man or cleric. It does not require that
a man shall have spent his years in
the priesthood or that he should have
worn the robes of bishop. Cardinal
Antonelli , whose opposition to Pope
Leo at one time attracted the atten
tion of the whole world , was appoint
ed while he was yet a lay member
of the church. But once the beretta T
and calotta are bestowed it is obll-
gatory for the recipient to take holy
orders within a certain period of time.
In rank at court the cardinal , wheth
er he be deacon , priest or bishop , Is
equal to a prince of the blood. And
this Is one of the things that give to
the diplomacy of the church much of ,
its power. The representatives of the
iPope at the courts of Austria and
Spain and at Paris hold grave polltl- .
cal powers and their advice is sought
alike by the rulers of the nations and
the leaders of the parliamentary par
ties. The Interests of the church In
these countries are so great that the
Cardinals appointed to represent Rome
jire among the best informed and most
Astute dignitaries at the'command of
the Pope
At Rome various duties fall to the
lot of the cardinals. Most of them
fold posts at the head of the various
congregations or bureaus in the ad
ministration of church affairs. So im
portant and honorable are the inter
ests consigned to these posts that they
are eagerly sought for by the most
powerful families in the church and
the conduct of a congregation involves
executive capacity of the highest or
der.
der.The
The congregations are the consisto-
rlal , for the reunion of dissenting
churches , and the inquisition of holy
office , over which the holy father hims
self presides. Then come the congre-

Book Lover is Still Dazed.
A new woman had just moved into
the neighborhood. She was of the dV
tinct literary type. Books were her
hobby.
Her neighbors called. One of them
in particular seemed to desire to make
an impression. She professed an en
thusiasm for new books and borrowed
several. The books were returned
within a few days , but always with
out comment as to their contents , very
ci
much to the disappointment of the
lender.
Book after book was borrowed and
returned with the same result. Fin
ally , after two or three weeks , when
the ambitious neighbor called again ,
a new morocco-bound Bible waa lying
on the parlor stand. The neighbor
picked it up and glanced through it.
"I believe I'd like this , " was the
remark , the same as usual.
"Well take It , " said the obliging
new neighbor , "and when you finish
it let me know how you like it , " she
added , with the slightest twinkle in
her eye and a shade of suspicion in her
voice.
The borrower hesitated for a mo
ment , took the book , and was gone
v.'ith it for over a week.
Finally she returned with it , laid it
where she had found it , and , thanking
her obliging friend , started to go with
out a word further.
"Well , how did you like It ? " called
the book lover after the other's re
treating figure.
"O , I don't know , " was returned ;
"if s good in places. But he does final
ly get her in. the end , don't he ? "
The book lover is still dazed.

J ducatod Oyater .
"A school for oysters , " said a Phil
adelphia dealer in fish , "is an instw
'tution that you would swear coula
not exist , for oysters are notations
for their stupidity. Ib is , however ,
a fact that there are many oystez
schools. An oyster's intelligence is
limited , but still it has intelligence , !
Years ago certain wise Esh dealer *
discovered that if you take an oyster' '
suddenly from its subaqueous bud
opens Its shell , whereupon the life-
Riving water inside it all escapes ,
and the ojster dies. But if you ex
pose an oyster to the air gradually ,
lifting it out of the water for a few
minutes , and then returning 1 #
again , it gradually learns that t
keep its shell closed when out of tha
water is the best thing for its health , }
These Investigators found that inert
could t.ke : two oysters , one trained }
and one untrained , and the trainee ?
oyster , keeping its shell closed while/ /
out of the water , would live a long
time , while the untrained one , opening - ] '
ing its shell , would die in a few ,
hours. Therefore , training schools
for ' oysters were established. The/ /
schools are in appearance nothing
more than reservoirs full of wafrer.j
Oysters are put in them , and tha
water is drained off and then re
turned again. It is kept off for a
f jw minutes at first , then for tea
minutes , then for half an hour , and !
so on. Oystc-rs in thess schools lean *
that they will live longest and keep
healthiest out of water if they hold' '
. ,
their shells tight shut. As soon ar
they learn this they are graduated-
and go out iuto the world.

SPOILED CHILDREN
Unnnlly Make SIclcl.v Men and Wotnea *
The "spoiled" child usually makes a
veak , sickly man or woman because
such a youngster las its own -way
about diet and eats and drinks thing *
that are unfitted for any stomach , and
sickness results.
"I was always a delicate spoiled
child , and my parents used to let ma
drink coffee because 1 would cry fee
it , " says a Georgia yonngwoman. .
"When I entered school my nervous
ness Increased and my parents thought
it was due to my going to school , sa
they took me out again. But I did not
get any better and iny headaches got
wcre and -weakened me so that I % vaa
unlit for any duty. Sometimes I would
go a wlr li cay wltLoat any other
nourishment than a cap of coffee.
"Last spring I had a I-ad attack ot
the Grippe , and when I recovered I
found that coffee nauseated me so I
could not drink it , and even a few ,
swallows -would cause a terrible burn
ing in my stomach. Itwas at this
time that a friend -who had been much ,
benefited by the use of Postum sug
gested that I try this food drink. I
found it simply delicious and have
used It ever since and the results
speak for themselves. I have gained
12 pounds and my nerves are as steadf
as any on/s.
"I consider myself well and strong
and I make it a point now to take a
cup of Postum with a cracker or two
as scon as I come home from school
in the afternoon. Po trm with crack
ers or a biscuit makes my luncheon. It
certainly saved my life , for I know
coffee would have killed me In tima
had I continued drinking it.
"I have a young girl friend , a stenog
rapher , who declares nothing strength
ens and refreshes her like Postum ,
and she has a little oil stove in her
office and makes a cup of Postum at
noontime. I have recommended this
wonderful beverage to many of my
friends who know what it has done
for me. " Name given ' by Postum Co. ,
