Eighteen students at Tufts, in

ded three days last week because
OF their failure to comply with 1.-THE
new rules of compulsory chapel
service. Dean Shipman said the
faculty had decided to regard a
breach of this rule as a mis-
demeanor and that in the rigid
enforcement of the rule the faculty
was backed by the trustees. He
said the students must observe the
rule caefully hereafter, but these
offenders we're restored to re-

Masonic Accident association of
Des Moins for $4,000 accident in
demnity upon policy held by Mr.

When we are told that every law
must be enforced TO the letter though
the heavens fall, it has brave sound,
but a wise regard for the public good
demands that the laws be so executed
that the heavens may not fall. The
maxim that 'the extreme Of the law
may be the extreme Of injustice
'summum JUS summa injuria"-is of
venerable age and has had the APPROX
al of the best Jurisprudence as well
as the best craftsmanship of many
centuries 1t Is not mere "sophistry" =
as somewhat hastily, l suppose, it has
been called-but il may well be quot"l
In support of the application of simple
common sense to complicated and per
picking exigencies. / think there Is not
a government in the world, not even
the most conscientious, that does not
refrain from rigidly enforcing to the
letter some laws standing on its statute
books, either because they are anti
quated or because such enforcement IS
practically impossible or, IL beneficial,
would result in evils greater than those
which those laws are to prevent or re-
press.-Carl Schurz.

PrenarlnR Dates.

The preparation of dried dates Is car
ried on largely at Awabi, and as the
season had now commenced took the
opportunity to observe the process and
was taken round the factories by the
sheik. The dates selected are picked
before they are quite ripe. The fac
tory had a chimney about fifteen feet
high and contained several open, cir
cular, copper boilers, capable Of hold
ing five gallons each and nearly full Of
water. Into these vessels the dates are
put and allowed TO simmer over a slow
fire. As the water in the copper de-
creased from evaporation 1t was filed
up again, but 1t gradually became
inspissated by the extraction Of the
Juice of the date. The fruit is left In
the water about half an hour and is
then taken out and spread ON mats or
cloths in the sun to dry, after which 1t
becomes hard and of pale red color.
1t is exported in large quantities from
Muskat to India.-Geographical Jour-

A survival of the Primitive.

A Philadelphia philosopher thus ex-
plains the general preference for wall
table in restaurant: Primitive man
ate in peril The cave bear, the saber
tooth tiger, even some warrior of his
own kind, was apt at any moment to
leap upon him and to devour his food
and perhaps himself. Therefore he
took his meals with his back against
cliff or in the corner of two adjoining
cliffs, if possible, and with the open
country before him. That, you see,
was the safest way for him to eat. He
could not then be surprised.
"And we still have in us that memory
of the primitive man, and we still I'M
consciously, when We sit down to our
repasts, choose places that give us a
wall for our protection. That and not
desire to see things is what causes us
to pick out walls and corners. You can
see as well from the middle of a room
or from any other place, you know"

A Queer Marriage Custom.

In the Loo Choo islands there are
some curious marriage customs. One
consists in the bridegroom going round
to all his friends houses and permit
ting them TO dress him up in any ride
ulous style that they fancy. Some
times the happy man is arrayed in
gayly painted kimono, the sleeves Of
which are tied up with string laden
with bells, toys and trumpets. A mask
is then put on and red hat, the rig
OUT being completed by an empty kerr
osene tin, which rattles noisily along as
he walks, accompanied generally by a
crowd of children.
