Emlle Olllvler. Emile Olllvler, who was French pii.mi.'r dining tlie war wltli Pri'aslii in 1570, but who has been almost lor- gotten by people ou:s!de of Fiance, was born in Marseilles, July 3. 1823. He became a meuibelr of the Pans bar and was elected to the chamber of deputies In 1837. In 1S59 M. OIli!er was invited by the Eniporor Napoleon III to form a ministry. Less than a year later the declaration of war against Prussia, and Its dlsaa'rO' s re sults, led to the overthrow of thi Olll vler government M. Olllvler deemed It prudent after the fall of the em pire to retire to his estate In the south of France, where he rsldcd for a considerable time with his fam ily, where he devoted hU time to liter ary pursuits. He bas been a disting uished member of the French acad emy since 1S74. Of late years the former statesman hs been engagcl in writing an exhaustive history of France, of which 17 volumes have al ready been published. ENTOURAGE TIIE ROY'S GOOD TRAITS. There are those who can see no good In the boy who bas acquired some bad habit, however trivial It may he. His. fault overshadows all the goo4 points that can possibly be mustered In his behalf. He may be kind an;' generous to an exceptional degree, but now and then he uses a profane word. He may be good-hearted but be has been known to smoke cigarettes. He may be perfectly dependable, but be has a jiassloii for "playing keeps'' In marble time These things rn the eyes of some people become serious sins which totally eclipse the good points In his characters. It Is an open question how we may eliminate-these objectionable' traits niOBt effectually. A thousand reme dies have been proposed. O. E. Crook er, In writing on this suDJect In Farm and Home, says one tfilng, however, Is certain punishment of ah extreme sort frequently brings no other result than stubborn willfulnes. It the same way, constant nagging of the person at fault usually results in little mora than a fit of bad temper on the pirr of the one we would help. . , Oftentimes a better way Is to em phasize the good qualities that we .find In the one with whom we have to deal. Let the offending one know that we admire some good trait in h'. .ar.ic:er. He will then naturally de sire that we find everything about h!m worthy of admiration and will strive toward that end. The most unman ageable Individual In a group of a dozen mtschevlous boys was once transformed In a slngla-week by Riv ing him an important duty to perforin and making him and the resu of the group feel that he was the one boy In the lot who was most to he depend ed upon to do It. Emphasizing n good trait in his character was th.i mean.i of gradually eliminating many objec tionable ones. , Seldom Is It that we may not suc cted far beyond our expectations af ter this fashion. Judicious encourage ment, If we begin early enough, will work more won,ders than any alchemy of which we know. AIRSHIP ACCIDENTS NUMEROUS Washington. D. C, Ju'y 3.
