why 1900 Is Not a Leap Year,

The year 1900 will not be counted
among the leap years. The year is 365
days, five hours and forty-nine minutes
long; eleven minutes are taken every
year to make the year 1854 days long.
and every fourth year we have an ex-
ira day. This was julius Caesars ar
rangement. Where do those eleven
minutes come from? They come from
the future, and are paid by emitting a
leap year every one hundred years.
But if leap a is omitted regularly
every one hundred years it is found
that the eleven minutes taken each
year will not only have been paid back
but a whole day will have been given
up. So Pope Gregory Ill, who i'm
proved on Caesars calendar in 1882
decreed that every fourth centurial
year should be a leap year after all.
So we borrow eleven minutes every
year, more than paying our borrowings
back by emitting three leap ear in
three centurial years, and square mat
tiers by having a leap year in the
fourth centurial year. Pope Gregorv,s
arrangement is so exact, and the bor-
rowing and paying back balances On
closely, that we borrow more than wa
pay back to the extent of one dav in
1856 years.-New York Herald.

Mrs. Florence Kelley's testimony be-
fore the industrial commission at
Washington should open the eyes Of
Chicagoans to the necessity for doing
away with the sweatshop evil. The
witness experience as state factory in
spector in Illinois and her long and
intelligent study of the rubject makes
her an authority, and it is impossible
to read what she says without joining
In her condemnation of our inadequate
laws which are SO ineffectively en-
forced.

Divers Arc Bad Tempered.

One of the peculiar effects of diving
is that it makes one bad tempered,
says a writer in The Outlook. AS the
irritability passes away as soon as
one is drawn up it is only reasonable
to suppose that it is caused by the UNI
usual pressure of air inside the dress,
that in what particular way it acts I
cannot say. My experience and that
of other divers whom l have question
ed is that the merest trihe may make
one furious. There is always some
thing wrong. The lines are held too
tight or too slack, or there is too much
air in the dress or too little. or the
boat is drifting too fast, or shells are
not plentiful enough, or the dress is
leaking, or the face glass is not clean,
and so forth. / have occasionally be-
come so angry at some imaginary
trouble that I have given the signal
to be pulled up with the express in
tention of licking every one in the
boat. AS l neared the surface, how
ever, the pressure decreased my fight
ing spirit would gradually wane, and
by the time the face glass was I'M
screwed / would be so ridicuolously
good natured as to forget entirely my
errand.

HE ADDS PI TO HIS LUNCH.
Struggle with the Restless

suburbanite's Struggle with the Restless
Paper Parcel.
The man in the suburbs had his
lunch neatly tied in a square yellow
paper parcel which did not look it's
function. He started from the house
in orderly precision, but had barely
turned the corner when he stubbed his
toe and dropped the unsuspicious bum
die to the sidewalk, splitting the yell
low paper and depositing sandwiches
and cake on the ground. Then the
train whistle sounded it's warning note
and in despair the tortured suburban
lite crammed cake and bread promis-
cuously into his pockets and started
on a run for the station. He caught
the last platform of the last car and
hurriedly sank into a seat. When the
conductor asked for his ticket he man.
aged to extract the small pastebord
without showing the contents of one
pocket, but tugging deep in the other
for his handkerchief to wipe his heat
ed brow, out flew crummy bread and
stringy ham and cake that looked as
if the frosting had been nibbled nv
mice. The passengers smiled. They
could not have been human and done
otherwise. But the mar made no al
lowances for uncomfortable risibilities.
He glared at the offending men n
women, savagely thrust back the bread
and battered cake into his pocket and
enveloped his burning countenance in
the cooling pages of the morning pa
per. But there was a look of flint in
his eye that spoke the finish of the
home-concocted luncheon.

The missionary Cause.

Lack of knowledge is responsible for
lack of interest in the missionary cause.
The romance and heroism of missions
are absolutely unknown to the vast ma
Jority Of our church members. They
are ignorant Of the very names which
ought to thrill every Christian heart
with inspiration to self sacrifice No
wonder they do not give And this lam-
entable lack is the result of the want
of family training. When fathers and
mothers are interested in missions,
when they talk of missionary achieve
ments, when they set the example of
giving regularly and systematically,
when they invest the whole subject
with the thought of heroism and speak
of missionaries as personal friends to
be prayed for and helped, then the
children will receive the missionary i'm
pulse be trained in the missionary
spirit. and we shall have a generation
of givers, Rev. E. F. Snow in Con
gregationalist

The sunlight of true education alone
can disperse the gathering clouds of
materialism, of envy, of discomfort, of
irreligion-not narrow training of the
mind, not concrete study alone. Such
an education would merely awaken the
laboring masses to a stronger and more
misguided conception of the injustice of
the present order of things.
Such an education, the higher it is
carried, the more it units them for their
surroundings. 1t would make them, like
George, in Uncle Toms Cabin, -" still
more disconnected with their lot. Such
an education breeds socialists and an
archists
No. it must be broader, higher, q
truer education. American Hebrew
