(From Telephone News.) A 'smile is the bright green carpet of grass that covers the brown earth the first sign that winter is over. A smile i the rippling softly tinted shape from other poisonous reptiles in that it is slender rather than thick bodied. It strikes without coiling and moves with great swiftness. While being examined it ejected a stream of colorless poison for a distance of 17 inches. Dr.

Charles L. Edwards, naturalist for the public schools, inclines to the belief that it may be related to the vipers. "Until this time I have never known of a smooth scaled snake which was poisonous," he said. first warm rays of the springtime sun. Like it? Well, here are some more.

A smile is the song of a meadow lark to its mate as together they build their nest. A smile is the bright, warm sunlight after the gentle pattering shower; it changes the very face of nature, transporting the gloom into the Joyousness of a wonderful day. So nature smiles while heavy hearts grow light, and life is new again. If nature's smile has such a potency, what may we not expect from a smiling gregate approximately $500,000 each, year, one recent consignment from the Peace river districts having been disposed of to ah American buyer for $25,000.

they are kept for show only. The gold of the rule, "Do unto others as you would that they should do to you" ought to be kept burnished by constant use. The gentlewoman does not say. "Why should I do this kindness for her? She would not do it for me!" Nor does she say, "If you consider other people before yourself, they'll let you do it, and will impose on you." The true gentlewoman knows that hard people can often be won and changed by unselfish treatment. She also knows that the sense of justice is sufficiently alive in the world so that an unselfish person's friends will" not permit selfish people to.

impose too much upon her. Above all, she realizes that her duty is not to consider the-possible failure of her efforts in a pretty imperfect world, nor the reactions upon herself; she tries to be unselfish, not to get a return in kind for it, but because unselfishness is right. The complesvertt of unselfishness and good consideration for others is tolerance. When other people are grasping or unfair, the gentlewoman tries to excuse them, on the ground that they are doubtless doing the best they can. She is not smug about it, does not rat, $10 for lynx, 50 cents for weasel human countenance or the human "voice with the smile T' There's a "Miss Benevolence" at the head of the "Complaint Bureau" of a large institution, so vouchsafes a contemporary who is all but 6tone deat! Important points of the bitter and often unreasonable arguments of red-faced, explosive complainants are handed to her on memoranda by a clerk who stands in back and listens.

But "Miss Benevolence," all unaware of the stormy words hurled at her, smiles and smiles and smiles and smiles. And then smiles some more, with never a smirk, 'til the storm of unreason and, you know, it's apt as not to be unreason -is over. And the storm always does pass by, for she never loses that genial composure, but smiles and returns soft-spoken words for wrathful and bitter invective. Don't think that a mouth with corners denotes weakness or that there's such a thing as being too prpud to grin; for you can fight the good fight better when 'you smile. There was a time when, grim-visaged, deep-chested men once roamed the earth, whose mighty roar set whole cities trembling, in their path.

But, bless your heart! they have gone the way of all bugbears of the past! The "stuffed club" of benevolence and good humor does most of the winning these days.

On account of litigation over the land which the government desired in connection with this work the breakwater was started about feet from shore.

About 2,700 feet of the breakwater is now snowing over the surface of the ocean. When completed the breakwater will be 7,000 feet long. The contractors nave four large barges which they use in transporting the rock from Morehead City to Cape Lookout. Two of the barges are "dump barges" and the other two are large "derrick barges." The derrick barges will each carry 30 carloads (a whole trainload) of rock on one trip. -The large pieces of rock, some of which weigh as much as 20 tons, are easily lifted out of the barges by the derricks and placed in the position desired.

The dump barges carry the smaller rock, and the bottoms of these are opened when at desired points and the entire contents dumped into the ocean. Large Derricks for Unloading. At pier No. 1 in Morehead City the construction company has large derricks which are used in taking the stone from the cars and placing same on the barges. Twenty or 30 cars, under favorable circumstances, can be unloaded in five or stx hours.

The small stone is loaded in large buckets and these buckets are hoisted right out of the car and placed on the barges. thank God that she is not as other people; shie simply believes that people probably think they are justified' in whatever line of conduct they take. This breadth of view, this generosity, is a grace quite as admirable as unselfishness; in its. way it is a kind of unselfishness. It does not follow that the outward qualities of personality correspond with the inner qualities, but they should.

A charming manner will not atone for ut ter unselfishness, nor will an abrupt nervous manner, however unattractive, conceal a beautiful spirit. Yet, ideally, there should be correspondence between inner and outer qualities Maude hm nii'j I P'n ii i mm ml urMiJl i iniimfl MhAfrHmMVBi ffrnyinii it gSXAr4 OT- Gained "GOOD BYE, DOLLY; I MUST LEAVE lllilr aiuMiKSiSSij Radford Warren in Woman's World for- July.

Israel Nachamson, more than 80 years old, an intelligent old man from Baltimore, here to spend the summer with a The True Gentlemowan. All. the things which the term "lady" has' come to mean are neither worthy nor lovable. But no unfortunate connotation has so far risen to destroy the primal meaning of the word "gentlewoman." The external signs of the gentlewoman are good manners, poise of bearing. and charm of voice.

The chief internal qualities from which the good manners should rise are unselfishness, tolerance and consideration for others, which is only another name for unselfishness. Chance has decreed that some girls are so circumstanced that it is easy for them to be gentlewomen; for others great difficulties stand in the way. J3ut no girl need fear, of reaching such an ideal if she cares to exercise the patience and self-suppression necessary to attain the inner and outer graces which belong to the true gentlewoman So far as the inner graces are concerned, tio one is born with the quality of unselfishness, although some fortunate people have such a bent for it that it can be early disciplined into them-The baby is born an egoistand everyone around him must, perfrree, minister, to his egoism.

The true gentlewoman- knows that the Christian theories which look upon unselfishness as. a duty are something more than pleasant principles set up on some' higii shelf of soul where son, cannot become reconciled to the loss of his wife, about his age, as a result of the war in Asia. Mr. Nach amson, an American citizen, was vis iting in Turkish territory in Asia when the Turks declared war. He became separated from his wife in a panic of (Los Angeles Correspondence).

A poisonous snake that reptile experts and naturalists have so far been unable to classify and which may be of a new species came into the possession of Ed Hambly and Jack Horn. The snake was caught by a Mexican at one of, the road camps near Los Angeles. The snake has two each about one-eighth of an inch longl In an effort to determine whether; or not the reptile is poisonous it was placed in an inclosure with a white rat. The rat was bitten and died in convul-' sions shortly The snake is three feet and a half in length and olive green tn color. Its color changes to a pale yellow when it is angered and light brown markings appear upon its back.
