Biology.
Charles Eliot Norton, professor Of
arts at Harvard university, whom Mat
thew Arnold described as the only gen.
tleman in America, . objects most heart
lily to undergraduate specializing. He
believes in the English university train
ing, which gives man a broad educa-
tion and literal equipment for citizen
ship which makes of him cultivated
gentleman. In one of his lecture courses
Professor Norton told of student with
whom he had talked. The young man
was a sophomore; his speciality, biolo-
gy. He described with great enthusiasm
the character of his work and lamented
the fact that he had been unable,
through the regulations of the faculty.
to take more biology in his freshman
year. AS junior and senior he in
tended to elect it exclusively, he said.
The young mans enthusiasm was
rather more saddening than inspiring
to the professor. Four years devotion
to single subject was crushing to his
ideals of education. So he asked:
Don't you think that your career in
college would eventually be more salts
factory to yourself and of more profit to
others if you were to take less of biolo-
gy and acquaint yourself little with
literature and history and the arts?"
The sophomore thought he was pre-
destined for biology.
For some time Professor Norton was
silent. Then he said rather absently:
''Do you confne yourself to any par
ticular branch of biology?"
The face of the student frightened.
1t was evident that he did. To the pro-
fessor there was something pathetic as
we'll as humorous in the reply that came
quickly:
"Oh. yes My work is entirely devot-
ed to a study of the white ants intes-
tines. "-Exchange.

Eating In Mexico.

Mexico is land where people like
to eat and eat good deal The dinner
table is well spread, and there is an
abundance. Food is served i'll courses
and often many of them. A common
bill of fare in thousands of houses at
noon will be: Soup, called caldo or
broth rice, or macaroni, known as So
pa; bs1yed aud stuffed tomatoes and ar
tichokes, q most delicious vegetable
two kinds Of meat, often chicken and a
roast, or chops and steaks; fried pota-
toes, salad. beans, which always ap-
pear; fruit and several kinds Of sweets
and then coffee Everything comes on
separately, served BY a boy or maid.
This is a very usual repast and is fre-
quently varied with fish from Vera
Cruz or the fresh water lakes Red wine
and pulque are usual table drinks. =

Cement Pipes.

Cement Pipes are made cheaply by
an ingenious process devised by French
inventor. A trench is dug and the bot
tom filed with cement mortar. On this
Is placed rubber tube covered with
canvas and inflated The trench is then
filed up with cement As soon as this
is set the air is let out of the rubber
tube, which is then removed aud used
again in another section BY this method
9 inch pipes have been made at a cost Of
20 cents yard

Life.

Life has no other origin than life it
self, and this is one of the great truths
which the labors of pathologists and
biologists of the present century have
established beyond the possibility of a
doubt If the life that is taken from
life is taken from highly developed
life, SO will be the wife that is taken.
My earnest hope and belief is that the
final mystery of life, the key to life,
the principle which keeps life alive,
will be solved by the biologists before
all the members of the present congress
are dead.--professor Virchow to Inter
national Congress at Moscow, Aug. 10,
1897.

THE NEW WOMAN.

The Clubwoman is the name of new
monthly published in Boston. 1t is as
handsome and able as it's editor, Miss
Helen NJ Winslow. One of its useful
features will be a department. devoted
to parliamentary usage There is great
need among women of a correct knowl-
edge of how to conduct meetings. An
other field of vast usefulness before The
Clubwoman is the promoting and fos-
tering of cooperative and housekeeping
clubs among working girls and women.
Among all the multitudes of women s
associations these have an economic
value that helps directly in a material
way those belonging to them. Properly
managed such clubs can give a real
home to a working woman who is alone,
with comfort and even luxury that she
could scarcely obtain otherwise with
twice the money.

was rather thirsty, but he made point
of eating before he drank Meantime
he read his letters those from his rela-

am sorry to say that 1870 Egerton
Gardens presented somewhat painful
contrast to the decorous establishment
of Mr. Richard Beechley. Elsa O'Don-

hair down her back, was belaborine

lay in bed and cried from time to time,

pose-it was half past 9--of somebody
overhead.
"Say you'll come with me to Rich
ards. -
keep your beastly prig to yourself ;"
Elsa stopped abruptly, dropped the
pillow and turned away. She was of
the fair type of Irish girl, with pale
gold hair, and pale blue eyes, and a
pale, beautiful skin. small and slender
and upright AS she moved to the door
Tom sat up in bed--a brown faced,
pleasant fellow, with tumbled, curly
head-and called out eagerly:
Hello, Elsa | beg your pardon /
didn't mean to offend you. y
She showed him a grave and slightly
tremulous face. "All right, Tom. Only
/ wish you'd understand that l care
about Richard and can't bear to hear
him abused. .

of me. Only one can t help seeing if

sure Beechley's a very good chap but
he is a bit reserved and-and that sort

There was knock at the door and a
housemaid's voice, "A telegram for
you, miss. =
Elsa took it and looked at it for a
longer time than the reading needed.
Nothing wrong. Elsa?''
"No, only Richard can't be i'll this
afternoon.
She went out of the room, and Tom
muttered, Damn the fellowl'' as he
settled his head on the pillow
Ten minutes later telegram was
sent from Egerton Gardens:
Am not coming ELSA.
The same day, at 4 o'clock, Richard
Beechley went to Egerton Gardens.

"Oh, no.
But you wired you couldn It come -
