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. A new
high record In the toll cf human life
