Running No Risk.

A troop of wandering musicians were
playing before Swiss hotel. At the
end of the performance one of the MEM
bers left the group, approached the lead
er of the band and pulled out little
paper box, which he emptied into his
left hand, while the eyes of the leader
followed every movement
He then took a plate in his right
hand, passed it round, and large sum
was collected, every one meanwhile
wondering what he held in his left
hand.
"Why, it's very simple" said the
leader when questioned. "We are all

A ROYAL Athlete.

Among the stories told Of one of the
most kingly Of European sovereigns,
King George Of Greece, is one which
details the trouble that on one occasion
grew out of his passion for athletic
sports.
The king, in the earlier years of his
reign, often participated in the feats of
running and leaping of which his coun-
trymen are so fond. In order to conceal
his identity he entered the contests un-
der the name Of George Papadopoulos.
He was an excellent athlete-tall, strong
and nimble-and won many of the con-
tests.
He proudly cherishes the cups and
other trophies which he won in these
games, all of which bear the name of
George Papadopoulos. But his appear.

sequently mysterious parsonage. had its

fessional

could not give satisfactory account of
his identity and antecedents, the crowd
became convinced that he really was

About Microbes.

The history of science shows that,
however simple newly discovered fact
or law appears at first, closer study
proves it complex and intricate. This
holds true in the germ theory of dis
ease. 1t seems such an easy explanation.
Each disease is due to specific mi
crobe. Eliminate the microbe, cure the
disease" But exceptions keep obtrud.
ing themselves. Often the microbe is
found, but not the disease; hence bac-
teriologists have come to recognize that
not the presence Of the germ, but some
virulent condition of it, causes the NAL
ady. 1t is said that the current of
thought was first turned in this direc-
ton by the discovery by Roux and YER
Elm Of diphtheria bacillus in large
number Of normal throats and In local
tiles where the disease had not been
epidemic for years. Leaders seem to be
deciding that 1t is family of bacilli
one has to deal with in diagnosing and
treating certain disease. Some members
of the family are especially pathogenic
and some are not. 1.-THE last may be-
come virulent under conditions not well
understood, but the main one seems to
be the passage Of the bacillus through
one or moe individuals whose lowered
resistive vitality makes them subject to
the originally attenuated vi-ulence Of
the bacilli." Dr.. Roux of antitoxin
fame believes these changes In virulence
of microbes are the rule rather than the
execution. MetZchnikoff found that
cholera bacillus was widely spread in
water, practically all over the world.
Duclaux, Pasteur's successor as director
of the Institut Pasteur, is also convinced
that the family Of bacilli" in both ty-
phoid and cholera is sometimes patho-
genie and sometimes not, and is widely
spread in nature.

Light In Photography.

M. Chassagne discovered that Light
is, according to its color, able to produce
q specific physical change by virtue OF
which each part of the photograph is
able, when immersed in bath OF dye,
to absorb the dye just in those parts OF
the picture where the corresponding tint
originally fell" If this is true, red
tiled roof in landscape, when photo
graphed by means of properly prepared
films, would be able to so affect the part
where its image had fallen that when
the whole photograph is placed in red
dye the dye stains that part Of the pic
ture and none of the other. In the Chas-
sagne photograph the tinting follows
the lines with such precision as shows
the importance Of the discovery or tho
cleverness of the fraud. Opinion seems
to favor the first. Beoquerel, some half
century ago, succeeded In fixing tempo
rarily upon the Photographic plates the
colors Of the spectrum. The question
was then raised whether 1t is possible
that a color may, under certain circum-
stances, actually create pigment of its
own tint out of a chemical precipita-
ton of material taking place under its
own influence. Until M. Chassague
may be able to reveal the nature Of his
secret solution speculation may remain
wide of the mark.

Rambling Thoughts.
Continued from first page,

the skin has wrinkled and the eyes
have lost their sparkle. Compared
with the fabric of your mind, your
body is but basting thread. Yet
behind II contemplate hiliock OF
clothes you bow your beautiful head
until you no more see the wide world
OF noble womanhood to which you
are surely called. How selfish you
are! Your father needs must deck
YOU though his aged head calls for
rest; YOU cry, GIVE, give" to both
father and husband not that you
may make any return either to them
or to the world. You circle around
yourself, you admire yourself, you
get pleasure in humbling those less
gorgeous Do you call that living?
Can you by and stretch of your per-
verted mind, satisfy yourself that
your powers We're given you just to
fulfill the function of Il dress form.
If that were all, bent wires with ciii-
ella covering could fill your place III
the world. Silly ostrich, when the
ayenger reaches for you, and your
place knows you no more forever,
what will you eave? Clothes where
at even the servants will fiout in 81
little while. Upon my soul, life is not
worth living, If that is all it can be
made to bring forth.

Peep out with blinking eyes from

and then look at life as whole. with
a due sense of proportion, impossible
before when you were SO near the
ground. What do you learn? That
no one cares for you, SO long as you
care only for yourself; that the love
OF your fellows is bought with price,
