your eyesight was defctlve and
that' you needed glasses of som
kind, but to diagnoge the exact
trouble and .fit the right glasses
calls for more than ordinary skill.

1IAMMERSTEIX ENGAGEMENT
A Few Years AgoMVas a Guest With

Miss Felice Lyne, a popular Kansas
City lady, who a few' years ago spent
several months in La Grande, visit
ing Doctor and Mrs. F. E. Moore and
forming many friends Is to sing with
a Hammersteln grand opera company.
The following from the Kansas City
Star Is of interest here:
For some, the path to fame and sue- j
ceBS In the muslca lworld is a long, j
weary climb. Few have their talent
recognized Immediately by the critics
and operatic managers. One of the
few is Felicle Lyne, a young Kansas
City young woman who at '22 has ach
ieved the rank of prima donna.
Just three years ago in ugust,
Miss Lyne sailed for Paris to study
under Mme. Marchesl. She will re
turn to America' next month, to be
gin her operatic career, having ac
cepted a contract with Oscar Ham

found another Tetrazzlnl."

FUNERAL COSTUMES.
Their Extravagance Curbed' by Law at
One Time In England. ;.
Sumptuary mourning laws were for
merly found u''ssary lu England
to restrk-t the ,xtr;ivagaiice of the no
bility' nud .tuelr Imitators lu the mut
ter of funeral rostume.; At the end of
the fifteenth entnry it. was luld down
that duUes. itianiuiseH nud archbishops
should bet allowed sixteen yards of
cloth for their gowns, "sloppes"
(mourning cassocks i and maqtles: earls
fourteen, viscounts twelve, barons
eight. knights six aud ail persons of in
ferior degree only two. Hoods were
forbidden to all except those above the
rank of esquire of the king's house
hold. '
; In the following century Margaret,
countess of Richmond, mother of Hen
ry VII., issued an ordinance for the
"reformation of apparel for great es
tates of women . In tyme of mourn
ings." So it seems that men and wom
en have met in the extravagance of
sorrow. ':.. ;'' ; f .
Even 200 years ago London trades
men found that court mourning seri
ously affected their business. Addison
relates that at a tavern be often met a
man whom be took for an ardent and
eccentric royalist. Every time this
man looked through the Gazette he ex
claimed, "Thank God, all the reigning
families of Europe are well." . Occa
sionally be would vary this formula
by making reassuring remarks respect
ing the health of British royalists. Aft
er some time Addison .discovered that
this universal royalist was a colored
silk merchant, who never made a bar
gain without inserting in the agree
ment, "All this will take place as long
as no royal personage dies in the In
terval'' London Chronicle.
MENTAL INFLUENCES.
The 8tate of the Mind Has a Direct
' Effect Upon the Body.
A good deal is said, in these days
about the effect of mind on matter In
the way of the core of disease, but
less is heard about mental influences
as a cause of bodily ills, yet it is an
old truth that the state of mind has a
direct effect on the body. The gloom
and depression caused tf worry and
anxiety create a morbid condition of
the physical system. It la Impossible
to feel well physically when the mind
and spirits are downcast The blood
does not circulate properly, appetite
falls, the head aches, and if these mor
bid conditions continue more deep
seated ailments are likely to arise, and
cancer may be-one of them. '
With many persons a fit of anger is
followed by an attack of indigestion.
Excitement destroys the appetite, bad
news creates nausea, fright causes
falntness, and so on. Violent or -depressing
emotions always disturb the
equilibrium of "body and mind alike.
This being the case, it is Inevitable
that when these emotions often recur
or become continuous serious physical
results will follow. The obvious les
son is, then, tbat mental serenity tends
to health is. in fact, an essential
element of health and that instead of
resorting to mind "cures" after the
health is broken it is wise to preserve
the serenity as a preventive and safe
guard against disease. Indianapolis

Lordly Disraeli.'
Disraeli once told a lady that two
possessions which were indispensable
to1 other people, be had always done
without . "I made." she said, "every
kind of conjecture, but without suc
cess, and on my asking him to en
lighten me be solemnly answered that
they were a watch and an umbrella.
'But how do you manage,' I asked. If
there happens to be no .clock in the
room and you want to know the time?'
'I ring for a servant. was the magnilo
quent reply. Well.' I continued. and
what about the umbrella? What do
you do, for instance, if you are in the
park and are caught in a sudden show
er? I take refuge.' he replied, with
a smile of excessive gallantry, mnder

la 1871 Edward Lear was staying
with the governor of Bombay at Ma
habaleshwar. the hill station of the
Bombay presidency. I was there and
took a walk with him one day. Be
asked me the name of some trees. I
told him thy were called "Jambu!"
trees in India. He immediately pro
duced his sketch book and in bis in
imitable style drew a bull looking into
a Jam pot . Be said it would help, him
to remember the name. London Spec

A PLACID MERCHANT.
He Had 8eme Regard For th 8oelal
, 8ide of Trade.
The summer visitor in a small sea
port town was amazed and amused at
the assortment of merchandise display
ed in the little store at the bead of the
wharf. The showcase was devoted to
an assortment of candy at one end and
a lot of cigars and tobacco at the oth
er end and no barrier between. Next
to the shdwease stood a motor engine
valued at several hundred dollars.
Thinking to please the proprtetor,
the visitor remarked tbat even the
large department stores in . Boston
could not boast of such a collection.
"Well," he said. "I ain't aping them
j stores, I an tell you. I aim to keep
wuat my ioiks want When a man
wants an engine for his bo't he wants
it, and if the fish are running be can't
wait to send way to Portland or Boa
ton for it. Be wants it when he does,
then and there."
After a little pause be continued:
1 don't like the way they do business
in them big stores, anyway. Why,
when you go into a store up to Bos
ton the first thing you know some
body, asks you what you want
"Now, .1 .never do .anything like .that
If a man comes into my place I pass
the time o' day and ask him to set
and after he's set and talked a while
if he wants anything hell tell me.
"I never pester a man to buy. May
be be ain't come to buy; maybe he's
come to talk." Youth's Companion.
The First Universities.
To fix precisely the date of the rise
of the first universities is Impossible
for the reason that they were not
founded, but grew. They were started
by a few able men who bad something
they wished to teach and youths
wished to learn. .Gradually the free,
voluntary center of learning became
the organized affair we know as the
QnJtursJty. Among the earliest of
these centers 01 learning were Saler
no, Naples and Bologna. Italy being
the first land to experience the literary
revival - We may say tbat Salerno
university was fairly established by
the year. 1000, the University of Bo
logna by 1100 and the University of
Naples by the year 1200. The Uni
versity of Paris, which owes Its ex
istence to the genius of Abelard, was
founded about the same time. New
York American.

cape over their beads to prevent the
