In It a net Hint the clement which
we cnll wnlcr Is fant disappearing from
tlio faco of the cnrtli and that tho
whole globo In slowly hut surely being
converted Into n ilcnert?
To some tills mny nppear to be a
startling proposition but that the
theory In tenable thcro enn be no
doubt because It has been ndrocnted
bettered In nnd dlseusscd by some of
tho most brilliant thinkers of the past
three centuries Including such mon as
Ne ton Hamilton Hufnboldt nnd Do
Verne. Wo arc well aware that man
Is prone to expressions of dissatisfac-
tion. A week of rain and cloudy
weather suggests a repetition of tho
Nonchlan deluge nnd ton days of dry
hot winds cause us to shake our heads
nnd give vent to ominous muttering
concerning "siroccos" "withering
blasts" nnd "deserts." The stream of
life never runs entirely smooth even
to the most thoughtless nnd In tlio
majority of instances the more
thoughtful the man tho more likely ho
Is to express discontent. Knowing
himself to be tho lordly "reason no?
creature" llio representative of tho
only rnce or species of beings endowed
with Intellectual fnaultlcs he Is not
slow In "tnlnklng out" nnd assigning
causes for both flood nnd drought as
well as for nil other phenomena which
occur In on or above the earth.
Tho above thoughts have been sug-
gested by nroounts and opinions on tho
prevailing worlds dr drought Arid
conditions have charaaterlzdtSe mete-
orology of every country on the globp
to a greater or lesser degree since 1KS0
In European countries In Asia and Aus-
tralia as well as In the greater portion
of tins United States nil of the smaller
streams have disappeared and the larger
ones aro rapidly dwindling to mere
rivulets. The waters of the great lakes
of America as well as of the so-colled
"seas" of Europe and Asia aro fast re-
ceding from the banks which formerly
circumscribed their boundaries Be-
tween the years 1860 and 1801 accord-
ing to the report of government In-
spectors thp water level of Lakes Mich-
igan Uuron nnd Erie were reduced two
feet causing tho marginal Una to re-
cede hundreds of feetnlong some of tlio
shelving banks. During tho three years
which havo elapsed since the date last
abovo given the retrocession has bcon
comparatively much greater. This be-
ing the cuso wo have no reason to
doubt the report which was lately
made to the effect that there are dozens
of piers nnd warehouses which were
used fifty years ago In loading fallow-
draught lake vessels whlah have long
since been abandoned becausa they now
stand high nnd dry far from tho water
edge.
The marked diminution In the
world's water supply was never par-
ticularly noted until within the last
twenty-flvo years although the noted
philosophers of two and three cen-
turies ago gave H as tlje'r opinion that
the earth would lu the ages to pome
be at arid as the moon is now bellVcd
to be. What Is becoming of the wa-
ter? Is a question that hat never been
satisfactorily answered. Home author.

opinion that It is accumulating at the

ory thinks that "In nil probability Il-

A Kind Hearted Man llvot in Wott
Indianapolis. Tho other afternoon
when the boat wnt Intense he saw In
a Flold oppaslle his House forty or
fifty Cattlo pawing nnd bellowing
about a Well nnd evidently suffering
greatly from Thirst. This was moro
than tho Kind Hearted Man could
stand for he did nut like to see Dumb
lltutes suffer. He went across the
Itoad and pushed his way among the
Cattle to tho Pump. Thoy recognized
him as n Friend In Need and n Friend
Indeed nnd thoy crowded against him
pushing htm against the I'ump until
ho was bruised and sore.
Hut this did not divert tho Kind
Hearted Man from his kindly purpose
lie began pumping nnd the hnlf-fam
(shed Cattle nlmost trampled each
other tindor foot In getting to tho
w.ntor. Ho could not pump fast enough
The Hun bent down on his Head nnd

Hut still the Kind Hearted Man
pumped on. 'I ho Cattle gulped down

Citizen could not He nbout it. The
Whlsttet blow for the men In the shops
to quit work and ns they wandered
across the Fields they saw thu Kind
Hearted Man pumping nwny and the
Cattlo drinking ns they winked the
other Eye. The Pump squeaked nnd
almost steamed and thcro was n look
nbout It ns If to say. "This It my busy
day" -but the Kind Hearted Man
pumped on.
Hut there Is an End to all Earthly
Things. Along toward Night the Cat.
tlo finally had enough Water for once
In tholr liven and as they waddled
away and left the Kind Hearted Man
still making e few Spanmodlo Jerks at
tho wobbly Pump-Handle for he was
True tp flip f.ast thoy looked kindly
back at him as f to sny- ''My Friend
if thoro Is over anything In this World
that we can do for you all yo't hnvo
got to do Is to mention it."
The Kind Hearted Man trudged
wearily back to his homo hot and tired
but Proud In the Consciousness that he
had done A Oood Thing. When his
Wife and Children found him he was
oepng In n Chair with a Peaceful
look on Id 8wntTStnlnel face.

There Is always a Difference in the
Morning. The Kind Heartod Man had
a call early from the .Van who Owned

and threatened to havo him Arrestod.

Yellow Jackets Are Desdljr.
While watching tor a shot at a deer
near a deerllck ono fall I noticed a
huge yellow Jackets' nest hanging
from the limb of an Ironwood sapling
not far from a tree I had climbed up.
A little before sunset I saw a fine buck
juaklng lts way toward the lick. As
tie approached tho yellow Jaohoti' nest
I noticed n movement In the foliage
overhead and the next Instant a cata-
mount plunged headlong through tho
leaves and landed on the buck's neck
Tho buck stumbled but soon got on
his feet and the cntnmount who had
struck the limb to which the yellow
Jackets' nest was attached sprang off
nud began to root and tear In the un-
dergrowth foy the disturbed lnepts
had pourod out and were stinging it
unmercifully. The buck dashed away
out of sight like a streak and from the
way he snorted I Judged that some of
the augry hornets had got at him also.
The catamount ran up a beech tree
npd leaped fjflm nne t&m tl .
other till t couldn't gq any further
when It tumbled to tho ground
wounded to death by the sting of tho
yellow Jackets. N. Y. Trlbnne.

glvo him credit for hts Intention as
well as for his action." If two trees In
a garden bear equally good fruit as

because one pf the trees s distorted fir.
unfertile while the other Is a luxuriant
and fruitful tree? It Is only the gar.

the good thought. The man Is In
nil of those perhnps part of him In
ench. Or perhaps tho truer wny to put
It would bo that tho 'realness" Is In
enoh In turn. First In the longing
wish which Inspires next In the quick
thought which finds out how to act
finally In tho noble considerate no-

can do since he has become capable of
nothing else.

Hut tho thoroughly healthy man
should ho be who uses both of his
natures without being conselaus of
himself as apart from their use. When
we becorc.' conscious of a part of our
body it Is because that part Is out of
order or diseased. .
If this It true of one part of a man it
should be true of another. We walk
and granting our poiyors qf locomotion
are In good order we should be un-
conscious of using our legs. W" think;
and It our bralnt are in a normal coq-
dltloq wp do to at the same time con.
aider how we think. We asplro
toward truth or righteousness
and It we are conscious of standing
apart and admiring our longing toward
a purer life we have certainly faUen
into a very impure one.
So the healthy man. tho real one.
should continually express his soul or
minu or body in some form of ae
yet bo always uncousolous that he
doing so. And tho man who so acts
and strives and longs In utter self-fnr-gotfulnest

THE PRESS IN TURKEY.
It Is a Mere Name Without Soul or Sab-
tnnre. In the Ottoman empire tho press Is
not only controlled but It would bo
no exaggeration to say qditcd by the
censor ft is only a shori time ago
thnt the idea of newspape was Intro:
duccd Into Turkey. A.t ho present
time however there nre a largo num-
ber published "both In Turkish and
Arabic tho most important of which
are published n Constantinople and
Ileyrout In tho latter place there ate
nbqut fifteen Jonrnnls nil In Arabic;
but thoy contain little moro thnn
eulogistic- articles on his Imperial
majesty the sultan and tho high
officials of tho government. No free
expression of opinion Is allowed. Tho
main reason of this Is that the Turkish
government Is more uf raid of the volco of
tho people moro t pcclnlly tho Arablc-
speak.ng population than alio is of
the reproaches complaints and pro-
tests of tho nations of the west Owing
to this tho sultan's advisors endeavor
by fair means or othorwlse to stifle tho
cries of his subjects against oppression
und wrong.
The press In Turkey Is a mere name
without a substance. Thcro Is no. lack
of able writers; bt moral ourngo nnd
xdf.sacrlncy nro entirely wanting nnd
this fact always destroys nny chanco of
progress nnd success. Ono or two dar-

GAVE HIM A LESSON.
A Cheekr Traveling Man Who Annoyed
the Wrong Olrh
As the drummer came Into tho smoker
a mnn In the corner got up and went
out rnthor hurriedly.
"You seem to havo a bad effect upon
that party" rcmorked a man from
Chicago.
"Well yes" laughed tho drummer
ne uicsn t into to sco me aroun J.
"Who In ho?"
"I don't know his namo but I hap-
pened to see him utterly put to rout
on a train onco nnd now whenovcr he
sees me ho fcelt better to get out of tho
way."
"Whnt was it? Tell us about It"
came In chorus.
"Ho's ono ot tho kind of traveling
mon who oro alwnys discreditable to
tho profession nnd I think ho travels
for somo third-rato houso In Now York.
I never saw him until the day I saw
him get whnt ho deserved and from
what I havo neon of him slnco I should
say it had taught him a valuable lesson.
It won on a train going out of Louis-
ville and thero was a pretty girl
aboard who was of tho typo that grow
Into vlregohood perhaps but of that
not let us talk. In any event sho had
n section In the mlddlo of tho car and
this fellow came In nnd nftcr looking
tho territory over sat down whero he
could look Into her fnce. There was
no other person on that stdo of tho car
and only two old ladles nnd myself on
tho other. Hi hnd Just begun to ogle
tho girl by grinning and gazing at
her when she changed her place and
turned her back on him. In a few
minutes ho had taken the seat be-
yond nnd had begun his operations
again. Sho stood It some time and
changed her position agnln. He did
thp same waiting quite a Uttlo while
so an not to attract too much attention.
Sho changed again and ho went to tho
smoker. Then T etonruut ..J
asked her If she needed my services In
stopping me annoyance. Sho thanked
mo and said sho would attend to It
herself. Protty soon ho came baok r
sat down facing her again wltl i
smilo ns If he thought ho wns havlt.B
a great Joke. She ohanged again and
so did he. This time I could see her
cheeks redden and could almost hear
her eyes snap as sho reached over and
opened a little handbag by hor side.
She took from It a revolver and as she
looked up agnln she nodded and smiled
as t she wanted him to come to her.
Hut she didn't though it looked that
way when she got up and taking a few
steps stood in front of him. Then she
shoved the revolver close to his face.
"There sho said load enough for
us nil to henr 'thnt's loaded and If you
look at me again VH put n portion of
it contents Into your ugly face.
t'She trcrqWed no as sho spoke that
thp revolver shook in her hand but
she turned and walked firmly back to
her plsee sat down again and tho re-
markable part of It was she sat so If he
raised his lice he would look directly at
her. Hut he didn't raise his face. TJo

COULDN'T AGREE ON A NAME.

Mrs. Bittersweet ns she acquiesced
to this tirade wondered what her hus-
band meant by It but she did not ask
for sho knew she would -find out sooner
by holding her peace.
Then he lighted tho gas and she saw
that ho had a pretty little Mqg under
his arm.
"Just SoO this riOOr little rnllnr. "
he said. "I found htm at the street
door whining and evidently half dead
with cold and hunger."
"O the dear Uttlo fellqwl May I

to. coroloss ot him deserves to lose
him."

"You will do nothing of the kind; he
Is my dog and I will not allow "
"Ho Is not your dog; you gavo him to

scene; "O ma'am such a time as they

Tho lady as has Just moved In has
lost hor dog. Sho was startln' out with
him for a walk a bit ago and Just
