SOME TIMELY This is the time of
OBSERVATIONS the year when
people catch cold. They do this just
to prove to themselves that summer
has not really started, even if the
weather does seem that way. They
also do it because of the first wild
and fervid desire to do without the
clothing weights that they have been
wearing all winter. As in most other
things, mankind goes from one ex
treme to the other, and the man who
has been wearing an overcoat and
flannels blossoms out in a silk shirt
and balbriggans, and then goes
around to the doctor and ksks him
what is good for what ails him. The
wise doctor gives him sugar of milk,
charges him two dollars and a half,
and advises him to "dress warmly for
a few days;''
This is also the time of the year
when residents discover that mo
squitoes are going to be just as bad
this year as they were last. Parti
cularly is this discovered by sweet
things of both sexes who have burst
forth into low shoes and thin stock
ings. The lower the shoes and thin
ner the other things, the more will
mosquitoes be noticed; though as a
matter of scientific fact the mo
squitoes have been around ever since
about the first of May.
. The approaching change in the sea
son may also be noticed by other
phenomena of yearly recurrence. One
may observe open cars on the inter
urban line. Most people think open
cars are 'run because the great and
good transportation firm believes the
weather is warm. Such is not the
case. Open cars are run because
HOT? YES,
A cool home on the hill, two
blocks from the bluff, 4 blocks
from 7th street steps, on the
corner; one street improved,
concrete sidewalk in on the oth
er street; 5-room up-to-date
house with sleeping porch.
Wood shed; plenty of room for
a good garden. $1650.00, $650.00
cash, the balance to run for 3
years at 6 per cent, or on
monthly installments. If you
see this place you will want it."
Dillman & Howland
more people are traveling, and be
cause extra equipment is needed.
And the -only extra equipment on
hand consists of open cars. If extra
equipment, to the same degree( was
needed in December, open cars would
be run. The seasons are only reck
oned in nickles and dimes by all
transportation companies. Warm
weather, more nickles; more nickles,
more cars, demand for more cars,
open cars. It is' well to understand
these things.
This is also the time of the year
when municipalities and other divi
sions lay plans for oiling highways.
They do it about this time of the year
because it has become a habit. The
roads have been dusty for the past
month, but summer was too far away
on the calendar for it to be noticed.
Over in Eastern Washington, where
the dust begins to blow as soon as
the snow melts, they wait until June
before they oil the roads, too. It is
a matter of habit. In fact most of
this "summer talk" is a matter of
habit. Everywhere the approach of
June brings on an epidemic of brides,
and an epidemic of colds and an epi
demic of mosquitoes, and all the oth
er stuff. And also about this time of
the year, everywhere, it will be found
that observations more or less like
these steal into the columns of the
daily press.

Manners of Young IMen

By CHARLES EDWARD W. JERNINGHAM. English Writer
"N MY EARLY DAYS NO YOUNG MAN WOULD HAVE DREAMED
OF LOUNGING WITH HIS LEGS STRETCHED OUT IN AN
ARMGHAIR. THESE NEW MEN WHO SPRAWL AND LOUNGE
ARE OLD MEN VULGARIZED.
They plant themselves down firmly, push out their legs, spread out
their arni9 and are careless what thev look like. Tlu-v say in effect,
"Push me out if you can, or, rather, if vou (Lire."
To these loungers and lollers it would up tear that to he" a "gentle

MISBEHAVING AS A "GENTI.K.NI AX" Doi-'.x.
If I wantetl to put my finger on h oik- thimr. above all others,
that accounts for this lolling habit I should nv that ncurlv all i3 due

1913, by American Press Association.
M ITTLE do our people realize the cost of what is called national
1 defense against IMAGINARY FOES of unduly fright-
ened army and naval officials doomed to live peaceful days
and spend their lives dreaming of active life which they are
destined never to experience. THE CHIVALRY, THE HEROISM
OF WAR IS GONE. To shoot from a warship at unseen foes ten
miles distant or shooting from under cover at a foe a mile distant is
NOT CONDUCIVE TO THE GROWTH OF THE HEROIC.
Little do our people know the cost of defense against imaginary
foes. Listen and ponder over this. The army estimafes for this year
are $149,153,320 ; navy estimates, $154,100,000. The actual expendi
ture usually exceeds the estimates by some millions. We find that in
round numbers, always tending to increase, our military and naval ex
penditure combined exceeds $300,000,000 per year, just about $1,
000,000 every working day A RUINOUS INSURANCE PRICE
TO PAY FOR SUPPOSED SECURITY FROM INVASION,
from which we have been free for a hundred years and which today
is impracticable.
MEN WHO REFUSED TODAY TO WALK ABROAD WITHOUT
LIGHTNING RODS DOWN THEIR BACKS WITH A GROUND CONNEC
TION, BECAUSE MEN HAVE BEEN STRUCK WITH LIGHTNING,
WOULD BE THE COUNTERPARTS OF THOSE WHO FEAR INVASION,
THE FIRST RISK, HOWEVER, REING MUCH GREATER THAN THE
SECOND.
FASHION HINT
By JUDIC CHOLLET
This Is a nice summer frock for a
girl. All the pretty materials that can
be made in lingerie style crepe de
ent that stirring scene at San Juan
hill in which history recounts that
Col. Roosevelt dashed madly up the
slope at the head of his soldiers,
shouting "Come on, boys, let's lick
H out of them."
It is true that certain historians
say the Colonel stood at the foot of
the hill and pointed up, and said "go
on boys, etc." But regardless of that
detail how the picture fades if, as
Jacob Riis would have it believed, the
Colonel dashed ahead or stood be
hind and said merely: "Come on
boys go on boys and lick 'em, by
Godfrey.'' Somehow the whole scene
is spoiled; spoiled so that it is not
even worth six cents. -
POPE 78 ON MONDAY
Pope Pius X., the head of the Ro
man Catholic church, was born Juna
2, 1835, at Riese. in the Venetian
province of Treviso. His parents
were of the peasantry class. In early
youth the future pontiff was sent
from the village school to the college
at Castel Franco, and then to the cen
tral seminary at Padua. At twenty
three years of age he was ordained
to the priesthood. For eight years
he was a country curate and then he
was made the heard of a parish. Eight
years later he became the bishop of
Treviso. In 1884 he was created bis
hop of Montua. For nine years he re
mained at Mantua and then Pope Leo
made his a cardinal, and almost im
mediately afterward he became the
patriarch, of Venice, which dignity he
retained until elected the head of
the church in 1903, following . the
death of Pope Leo.

GET THE SUCCESS HABIT.
There is a whole lot in atmosphere
and attitude.
Like attracts like. The man who
looks prosperous and acts prosperous
will attract prosperity.
Get the success habit. It is irre
sistible. Don't be too much of a shrinking
daisy. Shrinking daisies have their
place, but not in the modern world of
business.
The shrinking man will usually have
a shrinking trade.
In the language of a former presi
dent, "buck the line bard." Even the
man you buck up against will like you
the better for it.
I remember once hearing a very ex
pressive line. "Play up and play che
game."
If you are going to get in the game
at all you have to play It for all you
are worth.
I once beard of a business man who
was down to his last $3. He fortunate
ly had a dress suit left, however, so he
arrayed himself in his glad habiliment,
spent bis last $3 for a ticket at a swell
theater, sat beside a man with whom
he got into conversation and succeeded
in interesting this msm in a business
deal that put the chap who had spent
his last three back on his feet
He kept his nerve and played the
game. He had the success habit
Psychology may count for more than
capital.
Often the chief use of cash is to put
a man in the right mental attitude to
.get more. He should have the mental
attitude, however, even if he lacks the
rash.
After all, your mental capital is your
chief asset. Don't get bankrupt in
that, whatever may happen to your
bank account.
Look like a winner. If you do the
doorman to the temple of success may
think you belong Inside and let you
pass.

A PETRIFIED WATERFALL
Algeria's Stona Cataract Is Called "the
Bath of the Damned."
With all the beauty of a cataract of
living water there is in Algeria a re
markable petrified waterfall which re
cently has been engaging the attention
of scientists. This is the Hammam
Meskhutin, which means "the bath of
the damned," and it is located sixty-two
miles from Coustantine, on the site of
the ancient townof Cirta.
This solidified cascade is the produc
tion of calcareous deposits from sul
phurous and ferruginous mineral
springs, issuing from the depths of the
earth at a temperature of 95 degrees C.
"The bath of the damned," even from
a near viewpoint, looks for all the
world like a great wall of water dash
ing into a swirling pool at its foot, yet
its gleaming, graceful curves and the
apparently swirling eddies at its base
are as fixed and immovable as if carv
ed from the face of a granite cliff.
Many centuries have, of course, gone
to the making of the deposits, and the
springs were well known to the ancient
Romans. The name Hammam-Mesk-hutin
was given to the stone cataract
in an allusion to the legend that the
waterfall was petrified by Allah, pun
ishing the impiety of unbelievers by
turning all the members of a tribe into
stone. At ulght so the story runs, its
stone dwellers of the remote past are
freed from their strange fetters, come
to life and resume their normal shapes.
