Combination That Wins
Some men are able and some are
energetic the winners are both
Church Article Long Hidden
A secret chamber was found" by
workmen while engaged in the belfry
of St Sampson’s church Guernsey

altar candlesticks and the base of
a censer It is presumed that the arti-
cles were hidden at the time of the
reformation and have remained there
over 300 years -
Worth Knowing
If a package of value is to be sent
n great distance It Is an excellent
Idea to provide the box with a cover
of unbleached muslin securely sewed
In place If the shelves and floors of
closets are wiped with water which Is
hot and cayenne pepper insects will
be kept away Borax and alum art
goyd to put into the cracks

A mother who wished her children
to drink a glass of water each morn-

000 have been set aside for tbe treat-
ment and prevention of tuberculosis

HOW TRAGEDY WAS AVERTED
Farmer 8aw His Predictions Verified
If Train Had Only Come Through
' His Land Sideways
In a Tennessee backwoods lived a
farmer who although be had never
seen a railroad yet bad his opinion
of them and the mischief which be
understood they might cause Accord-
ing to his notion a train - was as
much to be dreaded as a cyclone It-
self Great then was his consterna-
tion upon learning that a right of
way for a railroad was wanted
through his farm He Z swore “by
hickory’’ that no money could buy it
Finally land enough for the purpose
was condemned and the road built
The day tbe first train was to pass
the neigh nors knowing of tbe old
fellow's opposition persuaded him
nevertheless to go with them to see
It As the iraln disappeared some
one said "You see Bill It didn’t
hurt anything after all" Bill was
surprised but bated to abandon his
contention that a train would ruin
things ‘‘Wal yaas” be said “I
reckon that ye mougbt say so but
ye see tbe gosh-durned thing come
through here endways Ef It bed
come sideways It would a busted the
daylights outen of every cow In tbe
place”
Egged Off
De Wolf Hopper at a luncheon In
New York said of a bad actor:
"He's had hints enough to quit the
stage dear knows He’s had more
hints than PhatL ' 1
“Pbatt after a brief experience on
tbe road as ‘Hamlet' returned to his
job in Canal street
“‘How did you come to leave the
stage?’ 1 asked him one nlghL
“ ‘I had hints that I wasn’t suited
to It he replied
“Thinking he meant tbe critics I
said: - 1 ' '
“ ’Aha the little birds told you ehr
' “Well said he ‘they’d have be-
come birds I suppose if they’d been
allowed to batch’”
HE CARRIED AN UMBRELLA
A dear old lady who waB very “sot"
in her prejudices was asked-just why
she didn’t like a certain man She had
no particular reason that she could
think of at the instant but she bad been
so emphatic In her expression of dis-
like that she knew she would have to
find some excuse — at once Just at that
moment she happened to glance out of
the window and saw him passing by
He carried a neatly rolled umbrella
though it hardly threatened rain
Quick as a flash she answered her
questioner “He carries an umbrella
whether it’s raining or not— he is a
softie’”
“But” said her friend also looking
out of the window "here comes your
son William and he is carrying an um-
brella" -
This did not stump the old lady “But
that’s another matter— 1 don't like him
anyhow— and besides It all depends on
who carries the umbrella" she replied
triumphantly
That Ib the position some people have
taken regarding that wholesome and
refreshing beverage Coca-Cola They
have said a good many nnkind things
about it and in each instance have had
it proved to them that their tales were
not true
Finally they seized upon the fact that
Coca-Cola gets much of its refreshing
deliciousness from the small bit of caf-
feine that it contains They looked upon
that as a splendid argument against it
Then like the old lady who Was remind-
ed of son William they were reminded
that it is the caffeine in their favorite
beverages tea and coffee (even more
than in Coca-Cola) that gives them
their refreshing and sustaining quali-
ties But does that stop their criticism of
Coca-Cola for containing caffeine? No
— their answer is similar to the old
lady's — they 6ay "But that’s another
matter" — what they mean is "Being
prejudiced against Coca-Cola and lik-
ing tea or coffee it all depends on
what carries the caffeine"
We think the joke is on them — for
caffeine is caffeine and if It is not
harmful in one It can't be harmful in
another We all know that It Is not
harmful in tea or coffee — that It is
really helpful in whatever it is — this
Is bound to Include Coca-Cola
Of course the truth 1b that having
started an attack on false premises and
having bad what they thought were
good reasons for criticism proved to
be no reasons at all they are grasping
at an excuse which does not exist to
explain a prejudice So you see after
all it all depends on who carries the
umbrella to people who are determined
to be unfair Let us be fair— AdT
