Quite the simplest Interpretation of
the trite phrase salad days refers it
simply to the fresh green quality and
character of such vegetables as are
grown for salad and which may be
taken as typical of the raw inexperi-
ence of youth. Probably it was used in
this connection by Shakespeare in AN
tony and Cleopatra
My salad days,
When was green in Judgment.
Another and very different derivation
links the expression with sale, or sad
die. the block upon which in olden days
schoolboys We're birched In this form
the words are allied to the ''pen'orth of
salad OIL" for which, on All Fools
days, boys were sent to the saddler's
shop, where they often met with a
warm reception.
1t is just possible that the term had
some reference to the "Saladine-tenth,"
tax imposed by Pope Innocent Ill. to
provide funds from England and
France for the crusade led by Richard
l., but this seems needlessly farfetched.

An Unfa mfliar Dialect,

An American woman who was lately
In London for the first time is con-
WINGED that whatever the language
may be which the cockneys speak it is
not English. One of her experiences is
related by the Washington Post.
The woman wished to see the city all
by herself Somebody told her that if
she went to the terminus of some bus
lines. 1t did not matter which, and
waited little she would hear the con-
ductor call out the places on the route
and then could choose that which she
wished to visit.
She found place where buses were
arriving and departing and waited,
She heard many curious names. but
failed to understand much that the bus
men said. Every now and then the
man on the step of bus would call
out "Moblotch. Moblotch!" and she
wondered what part of London ''Mob-
lotch" might be. She had never heard
of it before. and she had been studying
London for six months. AT last she
ventured to address conductor who
looked approachable.
''Will You kindly tell me-" she said.

Arctic and TrOpic Sunsets.

Sunsets in the tropics as 1 have wit

orings, cannot vie with the color har-
monies of the poles. Even the nights
of the tropics, full as they are of beau

when the moon is of a brilliance incon-

toward Mini Oudinsk.
The next day. 18th of September, the
detachment passed through the town
of Chibarlinskoe.
At that ti1e an incident occurred
which was to have very serious conse-
quences.
The night had come. The Tartar
horsemen, having had a halt were
more or less drunk. They were about
to continue their journey.
Nadia. who up to that time. as though
by a miracle, had been respected by
those soldiers, was insulted by one of
them
Michael Strogoff had been able to see
neither the insult nor the insulting per-
son, but Nicholas had seen for him.
Then quietly, without having reflect
ed, without perhaps having any con-
sciousness of his action, Nicholas made
straight for the soldier. and before the
latter could make any movement to
stop him, snatching a pistol from the
pommel of his saddle, he discharged it
full at his breast.
! The officer who had command of the
detachment ran up Immediately at the
sound of the pistol.
The horsemen were about to cut Mich
olas in pieces. but at a sign from the
officer they bound him fast with cords,
they flung him across horse. and the
detachment set off at gallop.
The cord which tied Michael Strogoff,
gnawed by him. broke at an uneXpect-
ed dash of the horse. and its rider. half
drunk, carried away in a quick run,
did not even perceive it.
Michael Strogoff and Nadia found
| themselves alone on the road.

Of the journey! Then comfortable
vehicle, teams often renewed, well pro-
vided post horses, secured for them
aI5ck journey. Now they went on foot,
with an impossibility of procuring for
themselves any means of locomotiOn,
without resources, not knowing even
how to procure the least wants of life,
and they had still to make 400 versts!
And, moreover, Michael Strogof now
only saw through the eyes of Nadia.
AS for the friend whom chance had
given them, they had just lost him IN
der the most affecting circumstances.
1t was 10 o'clock at night. For the
last three hours and half the sun had
disappeared below the horizon. There
was not a house. not hut, in sight.
The last Tartars were lost in the dis
lance. Michael Strogoff and Nadia
were indeed alone.

eyes, Nadia"
Nadia took the hand of Michael Stro-
goff, and they once more set out on
their journey.
Next morning, Sept. II, twenty versts
farther, at the town of Toulounovskoe,
both halted for a short time. The town
was burned down and was deserted.
During that day they had to pass the
little stream of the Okla, but it was
forbade, and that passage offered no
difficulty.
But, contrary to what Michael Stro-
goff had perhaps hoped, there was not
any longer a single beast of burden in
the country. Every horse, every cam
ell, had been either killed or taken
away. 1t was therefore on foot they
must cross this never ending steppe.
And thus they walked on for three
days.
Several times Nadia was obliged to
STOP Michael Strogoff then took her
+, in his arms, and for the moment, not

On the 18th of September, at 1C
o'clock at night, both reached at length

Nadia perceived line little less dark
on the horizon. 1t was the Dinka.
Suddenly they stopped, as if theil

the ground.
| A dogs bark was heard across the
steppe.

girl, urged on by some evil foreboding

Loeb on Sex Determination

Announcement is inside that Profess
sor Jacques Loeb. in series OF expri.
ments he has just completed at the
University Of California, succeeded
in demonstrating that the eggs of ami :
mails containing both sexes can be fer
tilized and developed into animals
through physical and chemical agen.
cies, technically, artificial partheno-
genisis
From these experiments DR.. Loeb
makes the deduction that If sc,encce
ever acquires positive evidence max
ing for the solution of the secret of
abiogenesis is, the fertilization
of the eggs of animals where the sexes
are seperated-it will be through ar
titical parthnoenesis.
This latest discovery of DR.. Loeb's
is in direct sequence in line of inves-
tigation already carried to satisfactory
conclusions in the case of echino.
derms and annellds. By the manipu.
lation Of sea water through various
chemicals he produced solution into
which the eggs of these animals were
placed. Then, without the interven-
tion of any male principles these eggs
proceeded TO develop in the same fa-
shton rs If they had been fertilized.
