The TheoIogian's Point.

A dispute recently arose at beer
table in Germany between a group Of
university men as to which science was
the Oldest
A representative of the law declared
that it was Jurisprudence, for this sci
ence must have been known in para
disc, seeing that Adam and Eve were
evicted therefrom.
"Why," said a graduate of medicine,
medicine is certainly of older date.
Just think of the operation that Adam
had to submit to in order that a rib
should be obtained for Evep
'No, no, gentlemen" retorted an cleo
tro technician, ''for before anything
was created God said, Let there be
lightp"
Then came the theologian, who said,
II do not want to appear presumptu-
Gus, but I think that precedence be-
longs to theology, for before it was
light it was-darkr'

Truth,

The cornerstone of character, that on
which the whole edifce is to rest, must
be truth. Be truthful in word and deed
and act, faithful to your conception of
right, and you can no more help build
ing a noble character than the earth
can help moving in its orbit. A boy
who has the courage to tell the truth
under all circumstances, even when it
may appear to be to his own disad-
vantage, will never do mean. unman-
ly or dishonest thing. He will net
stoop to do anything questionable, no
matter what material gain it may
promise.-Success.

Damascu. olive Groves.

There is an ancient custom under
which the olive groves around Damas-
Gus are guarded by official watchmen
to prevent the trees being stripped by
thieves. But on a certain date the gov
ernor OF some magistrate issues a
proclamation warning all owners Of
olive trees that they must pick their
fruit, for after a certain date it be-
comes public property. If farmer has
his crop only half gathered when that
date arrives, the public will gather it
for him.

Dale on silver Coins.

Most people have an old silver coin
Of some kind which they are keeping
as relic either for sentimental rea-
sons or because they think it worth
more than its face value. In some in
stances the date or the inscription has
been worn away and it is impossible to
read it even with strong glass.
The following method, originally
practiced at the mint to discover the
genuine coins when silver was called
in. will enable any one to read an OBJ
liberated inscription:
Make the poker redhot in the fire and
then place the silver coin on it. The
inscription will be plainly visible in a
greenish hue, which will fade as the
coin cools.-London Chronicle.

The Word MAWfnIo

In Mrs. Oliphant's Life of Principal
Tulloch" of st. Andrews we find DR..
Tulloch speaking Of some one as IAN
awful Tory" Mrs. Oliphant says in a
footnote:
'Lest the principal should be accused
of slang, I may say that the adjective
is strictly Scotch and had been en-
ployed for generations by a people
fond Of strong speaking before it
crossed the border and gave to the
youth of England freshly energetic

EreCklea.

Some people are born freckled, and
others have freckles thrust upon them.
The former class might as well accept
their freckles as dispensation of Prov
idence, for nothing can be done for
them. The latter can always get rid
of their affliction by using a couple Of
drains Of sal ammoniac with an ounce
Of German cologne, the solution mixed
with a pint Of distilled water. Applied
two or three times a day it will cure
the worst case of acquired freckles on
record,

Poison of the Scorpion.

It is said to be a remarkable fact that
the poison Of the scorpion gradually
loses its effect upon human being and
that man suffers less and less each
time he is stung. One bold philosopher,
it is related, had the courage to follow
out this principle to the furthest extent
and made scorpions sting him repeated.

society,. Rirht to conf,.cate.

What shall become Of mans prop
erty after he is dead Is matter for So
ciety to determine. If it seems inexpe-
dent to allow a rich man to leave a
child reared in luxury without means
of support or to leave quarrel on the
hands of his heirs, it is entirely within
society's right to restrict. his license in
that particular. The whims Of testa-
tors are a good deal Of a nuisance and

sparing Her Feelings.

"You don't write" the treasurer Of
the savings bank said gently to the old
colored woman. "Just touch the pen"
She did so, her business was concluded
and her feelings were spared. The Of
fetal might have said, "You can't
write" and that would have been true,
but the difference between plain truth
and considerate truth is sometimes as
marked as the distinction between a
boor and a gentleman.-Youth's Com
