session he and Representative Gillette
hired house together and kept bache-

recesses of congress he devotes him
self to his profession, although there is
never time when he is not studying
legislative problems and trying to fit
himself more thoroughly for his public
duties. During one long recess he car
ried home all the books he could find
on parliamentary usage, and when he
came back for the next session he was
so thoroughly grounded in that most
difficult and complicated branch that
only two or three men in congress, and
those veterans, who have seen many
years of service, can compare with him
in parliamentary lore.
Moody is short and stocky, with
fine head set on broad pair of Shout

is. No one can see him without recog.

but, unlike some of the other Harvard
graduates who have come forward In
public life, has never devoted himself

is little of the atmosphere Of books

practical unhampered with illusions
but in spite of his hard sense he fig

called-and is Indifferent to the ma

HAS SURVIVED
MANY SHOCKS.

In view of the fact that the efforts
Of the powers to restore peace in
China may result in the ultimate dis
memberment of the Flowery Kingdom,
it is we'll to bear in mind several in
duences which will tend to keep China
intact.
First, she has survived many other
shocks. some of which were as severe
as this, notably the brief wars with
Japan, France and England, and
former rebellions. Second, the pow

qualities to govern China wisely and
successfully. These would be support
ed by considerable part of the popu-
lation that is ready to take active In
terest in public affairs, IL there be no
danger of political exile or punish
ment. Who can doubt the ability Of
such men, for instance, as the eminent
Chinese minister at Washington to
take the lead in guiding China out Of
her present difficulties? Fifth, 1t will
be found that China's particular weak
ness in the present trouble is the lack
of national police. or of organized

Valuable Tree.

Eucomia illinoides. found in North
China, is reported by Technische Be-
richte as new rubber tree, the fruit Of
which is said to contain 27 to "a per
cent of gutta percha of excellent quail
ity. Until now gutta percha has been
obtained in Dutch India almost exclu-
sively, and experiments in transplant
ing the trees into the French colonies
have proved failures. In Java the con-
ditions for the growing of rubber trees
are such that they can only be culti-
waited successfully in certain localities.
The discovery of a rubber tree that
will bear transplating without injury
is consequently OF great Importance.

Pictorial POST Card Craze.

A fresh impetus will be given to the
pictorial postcard craze by the ingen-
.ious invention of an Italian, who has
hit upon the idea of producing a card
which not only depicts scene in COL
ors, but likewise serves as kind of
barometer. According as the atmos-
phere varies the colors change on the
cards, and the inventor has so con-
trived that the colors shall be used SO
as to give each scene illustrated the
effect that would be produced under
different atmospheric conditions.

at the exposition of 1855. Her mother
being English, Nine. Duperron speaks
that language as fluently as her native
French, and her principal trade is in
English and foreign newspapers. Lord
Henry Seymour, Lord Lytton, the Mar
quis of Dufferin and others of the
"old English colony" were her friendly
patrons, and many well-known figures
in the English and American colonies
of today are to be seen at her stall.

NOTED TRAVELLERS.
Two Sisters Who Have Made Many Trips
to the Holy Land.

to the Holy Land.
Living at Cambridge, England, are
two of the most noted women travel
ers and students Of the century. Mrs.
Agnes Smith Lewis and her sister, Mrs.
Margaret Gibson, are twin daughters
of the late John Smith, lawyer, and
Biblical scholar, and from him they in
herit their love of research. Mrs.
Lewis and her sister have made many
trips to the Holy Land and have added
much in the way of priceless manu-
scripts discovered and copied by them,
in the history of the early church.
Mrs. Lewis writings and original re-
searches in ancient Syrian manuscripts
have won world wide reputation for
her. Her latest discovery is the Sy-
riac Palimpsest, which gives to Biblical
literature the Syriac gospels OF a date
not later than the fifth century. Schol-
ars concede this to be the most ancient
copy of the scriptural writings extant.
A famous old German university has
seen fit to honor Mrs. Lewis with the
degree of doctor of philosophy, honora
causa, and this is something to cause
remark, for conservative old Halle has
only honored one other woman in it's
whole history. In comforting the de-
gree it is said, it is in token "of the
high esteem in which the authorities
held her learning and splendid scien-
tific attainments" The faculty gives
the following four specific reasons for
honoring Mrs. Lewis: First-Finding
the Syriac Palimpsest; second, COM
pleting the translation; third, discov-
cry of the Palestinian Syriac Lection
ary; fourth, editing the Lectionary
with the assistance of her sister.

there by the "God Of Fate" Hades is
conducted like a state department, and
lis divided into SO many halls Of judg-
ment, each with its president, staff of
officials and specified number Of hells.
The DEGREES of every president and the
penalties in every hell are so minutely
given that there is no danger of mis-
taken address for any soul. although
it is recorded that one virtuous man
was cut off in the prime of sanctity,
and his soul conducted to the hall of
judgment by the blunder of demon
who was severely reprimanded. There
is no red tape in this administration,
and rewards and punishments are al
lotted with scrupulous care. It some
times happens that the merits Of an
accused soul exactly balance his Of
fenses, and he is then allowed another
chance, and begins life again with ex-
