Prof. William James of Harvard uni verslty relates that upon a certain Journey he was questioning with him self whether or not the higher heroism of life was passing out of human society; and that at the very moment, he looked from the ear window and suddenly got sight of a number of workmen performing some task on the dizzy ledge of an Iron construction at a great height, says Success. This at once brought to his mind a sense of the everyday bravery of men In every day occupations. It flashed upon him on the Instant that the true heroism of life Is found not only on the day of battle and In desperate adventures but also In building every bridge, or In the ordinary service of the world, whether of the sailor upon his deck, the brakeman upon his train the lumberman upon his raft, or wherever else men are at work. "As 1 awoke to this unidoallzed heroic life around me," he says, the scales seemed to fall from my eyes, and a wave of symputhy greater than I had ever before felt with the common life of common men began to fill my soul. day-by-da- y Lesson In Addition.

ShoJI's quietude has Just been disturbed by a big wild-boa- r hunt, says a "Lately the cold Japanese paper. weather has driven the wild boars down near the villages. The other day a party of hunters routed out seven or eight boars on the, hills. A hunter named Krahel wounded one of the unsightly creatures and the animal started down the hill to upet things generally. Reaching the tiny village of Furuseki, he ruahed through a flour mill and attacked a woman who was cleaning wheat in a shed hard by, injuring her somewhat badly. A farmer named Ito Kuniehlro, htcring the womans cry for help, rushed to her assistance and struck the boar with his mattock, thus drawing the animal's attention to hlmsplf. The noise now drew others to the spot and when the hunters reached the village they found that the peasants had succeeded In giving the boar his quietus, and that a huge feast was in store for all.

"They were greatly overcrowded, eiqiacially iu the primary department of which I had charge, and I had been doing the work of two teachers. The strain was too much for my nerves and two years ago the crisis came. I was prostrated mentally and physically, sent in iny resignation and never expected to be able to resume work. It seemed to me then that I was the most miserable woman on earth. I was tortured by nervous headaches, worn out by inability to sleep, and had so little blood that I was as white as chalk. "After my active life, it was hard to bear idleness, and terribly discouraging to keep paying out the savings of years for medicines which did me no good." "How did you get back your health?" "A bare chance and a lot of faith led me to a cure. After I had suffered for many mouths, and when I was on the very verge of despair, I happened to read an account of some cures effected by Dr. Williams Pink Pills. The statements were so convincing that I somehow felt assured that these pills woold help me. Most people, I think, buy only one box for a trial, but I purchased six boxes at ouce, and when I had used them up, I was indeed well and had no need of more medicine. "Dr. Williams Pink Pills enriched my thin blood, gave me back my sleep, restored my appetite, gave mo strength to walk long distances without fatigue, in fact freed me from all my numerous ailments. I have already taught for several months, and I cannot say enough in praise of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. Miss Margaret M. Janies is now living at No. 123 Clay street, Dayton, Ohio. Many of her fellow teachers have also used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and are enthusiastic about their merits. Sound digestion, strength, ambition, and cheerful spirits quickly follow their nse.

While serving as a member of the Inauguration Subcommittee, appointed to mark points of historic interest, Joseph I. Keefer of Washington made an interesting discovery. He made It while attending to the masking of the old Octagon House occupied by President Madison in 1814, after the British had burned the White House. Mr. Keefer said: "For a long time I had been hunting about the old houses connected with the hitsory of Gen. Washington to see If I could find anything of a famous mantel brought to this country by Gen. Lafayette during the Continental war. which was one of a pair. A few weeks ago I found the much-sougobject In the old Octagon House, corner of Eighteenth street and New York avenue, where for jears It has Mood.
