A LAKE THAT TURNS RED,
1t is in Switzerland and it Has a Curious
Legend.

Lake Morat, in Switzerland, has queer
habit of turning red about two or three
times every ten years. 1t is pretty lake,
like most OF the sheets of water in that
picturesque country, and its peculiar freak
is attributed to II disposition to celebrate
the slaughter of the Burgundians under
Cnarles the Bold on June p, 1476. But
the French say it bushes for the conduct of
the Swiss who, in that battle, gave the
Bnrgundians no quarter. This year it was
rrider than ever and had sinister appear
ance when the setting sun illuminates its
waves
This phenomenon, of course, has it's
legend. The old fishermen of the lake,
who catch enormous fish called silures, that
weigh between twenty-five and forty kilo-
grams, say, when they see the waters of the
lake rcddening that it is the blood of the
Bnrsundians. As matter of fact, some of
the bodies of the Burgundians killed in the
b,ttle were thrown into the lake, while
Others were tossed into a grave filled with
pucklime. This historical recollection
angered the Burgundian soldiers of the vic
torlous armies OF the republic in 1913 so
much that they destroyed the monument
raised in honor of their compatriots who
fell heroicdlly in that battle, and Henri
Martin very Justly reproached them for that
piece of vandalism
1t would hardly do to attribute the red
denng of the waters of the lake to the
blood of the soldiers of Charles the Bold
The coloring is due simply to the presence
in large quantities of little aquatic plants
called by naturalists oscillatoria rubescens
The curious thing about it is that Lake
Morat is the only lake in which this curious
growth is developed, and this popularity is
beginning to interest scientific men.

Next TO the matter Of selecting a wife
which in the majority of cases Is little
more than leap I'm the dark-the most
important problem which a young man
has to confront Is that of deciding upon
his trade, business or profession, writes
Rev. Charles II. Parkhurst, ID. d., In La
dies Home Journal. almost any young
mans decision IA TO what he Is going to
do will mean the narrowing Of his prepa-
ration, whereas all success that Is fairly
worthy of the name means breadth of prep
aration. A man needs to get great mass
of foundation under him II he Is going to
put either high or wide structure on
the top Of It, and If he knows too soon ex-
actly what 1t is he is going to do that
mass of foundation will not be forthcom-
ing In all cases where it Is possible it Is a
great deal better for a man to get the
knowledge first and then let that decide
what the vocation shall be than to decide
the vocation first and let that determine
what sort of knowledge he shall accumu-
late.
"If a man is in earnest to do the best
that Is In him, it will be much to his ad-
vantage to get over the feeling that there
Is any hurry about actually settling down
to his life work. 1t Is great deal wiser
to drift and TO do almost anything that
offers as a temperorary arrangement than
to make up ones mind finally and ire
trievably 10 an employment that may pos
sibly be n misflt and that will involve
therefore certain amount of failure. We
can safely depend upon It that in the case
of n man who has n strenuous purpose
there Is q certain gravitating tendency be-
tween him and the work he is best fitted
to do, and IL that gravitating tendency Is
not hurried too much IL will assert itself,
and the man. without any excessively pain
full searchings of heart, will find himself
where he belongs Along this line the only
safe decisions are the decisions that shape
themselves and that we settle into with
out being very distinctly conscious at any
time that q conclusion Is being reached +"
