FOWLER TRAVIS, Blairsville, Pa. II brflka aitlt Ar nitm In the social changes that bare taken place since the days of hand to band com bats, physical courage, thougn Kill appre ciated on occasions when there is opportu- nity for its manifestation, is less valued 1 MantrlnJ io honini. than moral courage. Mankind is becom ing less brutal, more spiritual, and in the course of the change sets higher and higher values on those qualities that are spiritual. But man is very far yet from being a spiritual being, and there are scores of men who have physical eou: to one who has moral courage.

1 here for example, armies of men who would die in bat tle without a tbouirht about the punx 'of their sacrifice if appeals should be rnae to their brute instincts, but lew mueeu tut would face the obloquy of the world to support an unpopular principle they be lieved to be true. Not many men have the courage to ssy "I dont know" when they are ignorant, and fewer yet are morally brave enough to acknowledg their error when they ba committed a wrong. In the new civiiiza tion the modem kind of courage is more and more needed and is beginning to be appreciated. After all, it is only the courage that comes of devotion to tsuth. It is perhaps a relic of brute instinct taking a new form that makes men pretenders and braggarts.

Many animals swell themsel up, spread their bristles or utter loud roars to affright their enemies by appearing more formidable than they really are. And men have learned the same trick. They employed it like brutes when physical combats were common, and now that the implements of war have been laid aside and men meet together in conflicts of they still resort to pretenses and braggart illusions. The lions of society are very often little better than cats but for their roar, ami some of the supposed leaders of thought become very ordinary mortals when one penetrates their disguises. It requires some moral courage to throw off such disguises and to appear in one's true character, without the roar and acknowledging one's ignorance.

But modern courage exhibited in this its absolute adherence to truth. The man who is guided by the love of truth and justice becomes a positie force in the world. He may go wrong at times by accident, but his moral courage enables him to correct his errors of juiljz ment. He does not hesitate to apologize even to his Inferiors when convinced that he had done them a wrong, and the cotir age that enables to do this qualifies him to contend with those above him when convinced that he is right. There are few men of this stamp in the world, but they are deserving of special honor, for they are helping to develop spir itual traits, removing mankind farther and farther from the brute creation.

Ther-i will never be any lack of physical courage while moral courage exists, but physical courage alone is no sign of a high and no ble nature. The days of the arena have almost passed away, but courage and the love of it remain. Now, however, the men of courage are those who dare stand for truth, who, in word and action, sec themselves against all shams and pretenses, and in their dealings with their fellow men, though in doing so they may suffer a temporary disadvantage. These are destined to become the heroes of a new era in the spiritual development of the human race. Baltimore Sun.

Making Your WHU The fear that the attorney's fee will be exorbitant, or even that ic will be large, should be neither excuse nor reason for delay. All professional work is done on the basis described in the old saw: When you find a fat goose, pluck it clean And let the fat goose fry the lean. And legal charges arc regulated not only by the amount of work done, but by the ability of the client to pay. Go to any reliable attorney and tell him that you wish to have your will drawn, and that you can only afford to pay a certain sum for a fee. If be has reason to Ix-lieve that you have stated your pecuniary position truthfully, ho will become your adviser, no matter how small his recompense is to be.

Determine in advance exactly what you wish done with your estate. Make careful memoranda of all the points, the full names of all who will appear in the document and of anything else which may seem to you as of importance. Tak this data with you to the lawyer. Tell him clearly what you wish done Answer with out questioning whatever he may ask yon void irrelevant remarks and then loac him to prepare the document after mak ing an appointment to return with your witnesses for signatures, etc. LadieV Homo Journal.

Caitoos Vae of TotaaccA. All the Lushai smoke inveterately, even children of years of age, and their clothes reek with rank tobacco smoke. The men use short pipes made of bamboo; the women use a more elaborate one, the bowl of clay communicating by a stem with a receptacle for water, through which the smoke passes to a long, slender mouthpiece of ornamental metal. The water iu the receptacle, when fouled by tobacco juice, is emptied into small gourds stop pered with a plug of wood. Tluae gourd are carried by the men in cotton bags with other necessary articles for traveling, and a mouthful of the contents is occasionall sipped and the mouth rinsed therewith, when it is spat out.

It is considered poli to to offer a sip from this gourd to a friend, as pinch of snuff was formerly in Europe. A friendly native will do so even to an Englishman, but the writer has never heard of any one except Major Leu in who has had the courage to accept the compliment.

The writer purchased and brought to England one of the small gourds which are here spoken of. the contents of which, with disastrous effects, were spilled over the papers contained in his dispatch box.

It is not the maple leaves alone which at-1 tract their attention. Every season Las its appropriate blossoms in which the pub- lie delight is manifested.

Plum and cherry blossoms, wistarias, lotus flowers. cbry authemums aud maple leaves are the sta-! pies. Plantations of these have existed in aud near the principal cities for hundreds of rears, and every famous garden bad the whole assortment. Takao-Zan is the grtti popular resort for maple leaves about Kioto, though there-are many others. On the road as we neared Takao-Zan we found ouoelves in a great procession of people.

It was Sunday, and with other features of western civilization the Japanese haddopted Sunday so far as to make it a day of rest in the schools and public offices. So there were a great many school teachers aud pupils in the crowds, but besides them men. women and children, fain lly parties and all sorts of picnic groups. Some were already returning before noun as we approached. Teahouses begin to abound when we get within a mile of the place, each with a merry crowd.

The road becomes rougher and more hilly, and we leave our jinrikshas to walk the last niile The road swarms with people. There is a nest of teahouses at the end of the route, and their annexes run up the side of a steep bill, which commands a view of the 'gorge. We find all the places crowded an'. keep climbing up by zigzags until we reach the very top. Here a Japanese party politely make room for us on the mats of a simple platform having a roof over it, but no sides to obstruct the view.

We found our neighbors very interesting and amusing. They at once put then, elves on the most familiar terms with sharing our tiiKn aud offering ns of their-in return. There were half a dozen gen tlemen and three ladies. One of the lat ter had a samisen. the Japanese guitar, and played aud sung to it, while one ef the gentlemen, evidently a clever conic dian, dauced to the music after the mm: ner of the geisha girls.

They all were eii joying their merrymaking to the full added not a little to our enjoyment, for it was the people rather than the maples La; we went out to see. There must have be-. thousands there that day. The great of them walked both ways, from 1" to 20 miles, stopping at frequent teahoii'-e and making a real jollification of iht whole day's experience. There were hundreds of jinrikshas, but no other kir.fi of a conveyance.

On our way back did see one other form of carriage the old kago a sort of palanquin, borne on men'-shoulders by a pole. Some fellow mortal who bad got through all his picnics this earth was journeying in it to his la-t home, followed by a few friends on foot He squatted in the kago on this last ride as he bad always done, and inthatatii tude be will rest under the daisies. The road was full of merrymakers as wi returned, nearly every one with a twig of maple, larger or smaller. The trees are not robbed in the show place, but people bring in great bundles of boughs from the mountains and supply the demand at verj low prices. Old women carry on a remu nerative trade by laying sprigs of mapl-leaves between two thicknesses of coarse cotton cloth and deftly pounding them until their color is all transferred to the cloth, reproducing an exact copy of the leaves, a very pretty handiwork.

An feature of San Marino is that by an act of the great count ii Co printing press allowed within its limits, and any matter printed in the coua-trr is to confiscation and the publisher to be seut to prison. It is the only country on the face of the globe with sueh a law" The inlmbitants number ai ut 5.900.

and their cheese and wine are pro! ably known to many newspaper readers The eiry of S.m Marino can be reached from IVsaru-l'rbiuo by a pood carriaf' load and would well rt-uy any one f.r the visit. It numbers aU.ui 1.700 iulmh ltants and is a quaint old place, havim? changed little, if any, since the time of Columbus. It preserves all of its old eu toms intact, and the drttis of the peojh even is the same as ir was three centuri-'s ago. Ic can truthfully be said that this is one spot upon which the busy, moderzi world has not intruded itself. The streets are steep and narrow, and the houses tall and gloomy, built of undres.od Mono, but decidedly picturvxiue in uppearance fir all that.

In the principal square of the city, called Pranello, stands a magnificent white marble statue of liberty, presented to the city by the Duchess of Acquania in 1874. In the citv of San Marino no bui- ness of anv kind is allowed to be carried on, and all of the shops are to be found at Borgo dl San Marino, a busy Tillage about two miles away. The republic governed by a great council of 60 ineniliers who are elected for life. From this bodv is elected a council of 12, who decide in the third and last rv-Bort. The executive department is reprv ented by two captains regent, one clern-d by the people and the other appointed from the nobility by the council of 12.

1 hey have a cabinet consisting of a home sccrv tary, a minister or foreign ail airs and a chancellor of the exchequer. An armv of 950 men is maintained, who. however, arc mostly employed on police duty. Sun Marino dates its existence as a communiiy froin SS5, and its independence as a repui- lic from 1631. Napoleon III protected it from papal interference in 1S54, and at the unificarion of Italy it was allowed to retain its Independence, through the efforts one ieDrario.

A.nuorre, or Andorra, as It is comomnlr called, is another Euro pean republic a trifle larger in point of population than San Marino, and nearly six times as large in area. It is situated in an almost inaccessible valley of the eastern Pyrenees, between the French department of Anege and Caladorra, in Spain. The country is crossed by the river Bohra. which affords an entrance from France, the only other entrance being a precipitous mule path from Spain. The Andor-rlans are a fine, robust people, whose prin cipal occupation consists of fruit culture and mining, tho mountains surrounding Andorra containing some of the finest iron and lead deposits in the world.

Andorra, the capital of the republic, is situated on the river Balna and contains about 2.2w Inhabitants. It was formerly a quaint old city, but the progressive inhabitants in their desire to keep pace with the balance of the world have torn down many of its old buildings, and the town as well as the country is rapidly losing its individuality. The republic is governed by a sovereign council of 24 members chosen by the people, and the council elects one of its members to be syndic for life, who exercises the chief executive power. While Andorre collects its own taxes and elects its own officers, France maintains a sort of protectorate over the country and insists on the payment of 960 francs annually for the free importation of corn into the country, a product theAndorrians cannot raise and are forced to import from France. The French government also has the right to appoint one of the two supreme judges, and in all civil cases the right of appeal to the court of cassation at Paris is given.

This is the limit of France's power over Andorre. Andorre maintains a standing army of 1.100 men and has been a free state since 819. Another republic of diminutive proportions Is that of Mausuct, which lies W-tween Verm us. Belgium, and Aix-la-Cha pelle. There is only a very little of this most charming country.

The land meas ures but four square miles, and the proud nation which inhabits it numbers only 3,000 souls; but such as it is the republic exists free and independent, under the rule of its pople. and enjoys the pron-c tion of Germany. It has existed an ind-pendent stat since Ic is governed by a president and a council consisting of five memix-rs. who are elected every tiin-e years, the pre-idePt lwins; eligible to but two The army tonsist-s of three soldier. vh.
