THOUGHT SHE'DM MAKE SURE,
Did Not Understand Theosophy and Sus-
pected They Were Muscles.

The girl who has recently become in
terested in theosophy was enjoying her
self immensely. endeayoring i'll the
most DISTINGUISHED way, Of course, to
convert u chance acquaintance to her
new views, and tho long and hard
sounding words rolled off her nimble
tongue i'll tho manner peculiar to an en-
thusiastio student
Tho luminiferous ether" she was
saying interostcdly MS tho pale young
woman across the car closed tho book
which she had been thoughtfully study
ing and fell TO listening to tho scraps
of conversation which surrounded her,
lis really nothing more OF less than u
big psyohical mirror. Everything we
have ever done from tho beginning of
the Manvantara, everything we shall
do until we once moro reach tho repose
of tho Deyaohanio plane, is reflected in
tho Akasnic radiance. and
At this point tho palo young woman
across the car leaned over and touched

tide of her eloquenoe. glared at her
wrathfully, but would you mind say
ing those words you just used over
AGAIN.
What words?" inquired the theoso-
phist, slightly Modified by tho implied
compliment to her superior knowledge
Manvantara, do you mean, or was it
Devachan? oh. | suppose you mean
Akasaicl WELL that's Hindu or East
Indian, or Brnhmin word, I'm not quito
sure which, and il means--oh, light,
or radiance. or something like that any
WHY. Are you interested in theosophy?"
she hastenod to add, anxious to cover
her lick of definite knowledge Ms to tho
meaning of tho word under discussion,
for if you are"-
I'm not thank you, " interrupted the
thoughtful young woman more sweetly
and apologetieally, but eouldn' Z
help hearing those words, and they
made me anxious. I'm just beginning
to study anatomy, you know, and
thought you We're talking about some
new muscles aud as I'm going to have
private examination tomorrow
Thought I'd just ask you and make
sure.
But the new convert to thcosophy
was not listening, and tho acquaintance
who had been delivered from dissertu-
ton upon tho Akasa-ie ether laughed
immoderatoly before proceeding to
change tho subject of conversation. -

Tho origin Of the name Fife is not
known One historian tries to show
that it comes from tho Celtic word
yeach, a Pict. and means that tho dis
trict was inhabited by picts, but that is
obviously absurd, az Fife was not spe-
cially the home of any of the Piotish
nations. The tradition that finds great
est favor IS related by "a monk. who
states that the first known possessor Of
the district which has since grown into
the kingdom of Fife was one Fifus
Dnffus, famous chieftain whose date
is lost in the mists Of antiquity.

conclusion which will best serve the last

not be treated lightly, and, being a pub

ing the great mass Of the people, their
nights, their happiness and their lasting
prosperity.
AS TO It's being a temperance measure
we think there can be no doubt, as all
will conce6e that anything which lessons
the consumption Of whiskey must neces-
sarily decrease drunkenness, and anv-
thing which decreases drunkenness AIDS
the cause of temperance. The towns
and cities that have tried the dispensary
bear lasting testimony to the fact that
under it the sale and consequent con-
sumption of whiskey have been reduced
by half, while the rowdyism and other
evils attendant upon social drinking are
unknown. If the dispensary did but these
two things, decrease the sale of whiskey
and stop social drinking, it should merit
our heartiest approval. But it does
these things and more. 1t controls the
sale, as the general laws contemplate.
