MOMENTOUS DAY HISTORY Julius Caecar Said to Have Landed In Britain on Twenty-seventh Day ef August- til carefully and that, at the least, estiib- Isb.

a probable case. August Is the inlversary uf the landtag Julius irs-ar In the Island of Itrltaln. In his Hint -esulted In the conquest of Gaul, or modem France. Julus Caesar kept a Journal, In which he recorded all his operations II" called II. and It been pronounced to be perhaps the best record of campaigns ever writ- en by a general In the field.

In the midst of IUPSP operations be 'ound time to cross, the channel am! pay a military visit to the land known now as England, hut not so knritvr lien, for the ancient Britons then Inhabited the Inland. He stnu-s the year of "Hint visit, i according to oui cnlemlar. was B. C. He also state other facts whlcb enabled tbe cfllcu ntlon to month and day to hi made.

Caesar In hit Journal, or "Comraen Uirles," relates that ho set out on th expedition when little of summer re mnlned. when the people of the south of Brilnln are (Mipncnl In their hor- nnd Ilia! a stay of tbret neeks. lie returned to Gaul before Ihi wiulnni. It Is. tliorefore.

I am us much diverted and moved to laughter at the wny proceedings that were followed out by some as I am sobered Into sorrow at the snd and pathetic fate, that befell several others, I could say conscientiously, that wisest man always turned to he the happiest or the most fortunate, greatly I be gratified. But truly.

It hath never consisted with the little that I hnve fathered In RO- ing about the world, to clenl much In general or specified conclusions: I have often from my been mther tempted to sny, with the proverb-making klnc. thst folly in some cases hetter than wisdom, and Btness of heart more to be envied than sobriety and senie--Andrew Plcken. Be Sure You Are Right. It's a Ililnf to sissure yourself before tiiklns Important steps. Sometimes yon nre Inn husv to give murt time to tilings.

At other tlmw ywi may be too sure nf ynnnrif. Both cases are full of calamity. To be surf yon nmy be to do the riyht thing by I i i nnd do It with haste. As a rule the crca! things of life npon whlrh Impnrti'ni matters bans late time. You musi know the facts-lf you are lo advise others.

Yon must know the fctK to he nble to make of thlnss 1 Kenieinher It's nftf the amount of you put Into a thing that gels results. A locomotive out of control Is mad thing unlimited energy. The power Is ihe danger. It must he regulated to make It useful. --Kxrhnnge.

Cultivate Decision. Decision Is an to chararter. When rightly exercised you know and others know whut you dare attempt. Knch new problem Is met with the spirit of decision and the result Is i-ontlnued progress. Tills grows on people and they learn to expect SUP cess.

And that'u hnlf the battle. If jou are not sure what tbe furore has In store, 'decide to make the most of each revelation ns It comes. You are Just like oilier people If you yield to fear.
