The CLIMBING Perch.

Very various contrivances are
known by naturalists to exist in Ger.
tain fishes for the purpose of enabling
them to exist independently of a con,
tinued residence In their native ele.
ment. One Of the most notable of
these contrivances is seen In a curious
fish known as the climbing Perch"
(Auabas scandens) found in Central
Asia. Daldorf related that he cap.
tured one Of these fishes ''in the act
of climbing palm tree that grew near
pond" The average length of this
aquatic tree-climber Is seven inches.
Examination Of the head of the
Climbing Perch" shows that It pos
sesses very peculiar arrangement
OF thin bony plates, 80 disposed as to
form a highly intricate kind of laby-
rinth. the obvious function OF which
is that of retaining supply OF mois-
ture. serving the place OF the water In
which the nsh normally lives.

The Art of Generosity.

Some people think that all generosity is
comnrised in the fact Of giving, and act ac.
cordinglv Then they complain of the lack

they reasonable? Should ore expect any.
thing from a gift when nothing has been
nut into it but the bare. plain cash? Civ.
ing is a very delicate business when We
come 10 think about it. 1t is sad thing
that has two sides, not only the givcr'g
side. but the receivers. Generosity is an
art: not a haDhezard fnging of dimes and
dollars. Would You know how to give"

This rule. in the first place, SAYS Phila.

the interests of the church. and put our.
selves in the place of the treasurer. bur.

earnest laborers in the heathen fields Grip.
Dled for lack OF funds. and put ourselves
in the places of the darkened souls that
wait in vain for tho light? No, we are
considering how much we need. something
we have set our heart upon. and deciding
how little we can consequently spare for
missions There is no generosity in our
thoughts at all if we regard ourselves hon
estlv.
But IN these cases neither church treasu
rer nor missionary are personally hurt or
humiliated by our selfish attitude, although
thev lose by it, in the cases, however.
where our rude methods of giving bring us
personally in contact with the receiver we
shall cease to wonder at his or her lack OF
gratitude If we put ourselves in his or her
place. A gift can be as UNPLEASANT as
blow. if we fling it carelesslv in a recip-
tents face. Instead Of gratitude an ire

not feel hurt and Inundated? Truly. un.
less love and sympathy go hand in hand
with giving. we have no right to look for
good feeling in return.
The art of generosity is a delicate art,
only learned by tact and practice. But
when it il. learned, gratitude rewards it

uted large sums but cared nothing for the
people she helped "People are alwavs EN-,

deserve" said woman of small means who
put interest and sympathy into each small
gift she gave Which was right? One was

whether we learn the nrincinles of the art
OF generosity or ignore its existence.

Is gone. 1 have just $l.S3 in my gar

fast as I stole it, though my wife may
have saved a couple of simoieons."
"You are crazy, or else u fool" said
the lawyer. ''Or may be lunatic.
Perhaps all three. You certainly arc
not sane. But you have no money to
hire experts, so you had better plead
guilty and beg for mercy. You will

eighteen years in prison. Next time

The next day another thief visited
the lawyer. II have grabbed off $780,

"Where is it?" asked the attorney.
Buried" said the thief. Buried
deep. But not so deep that 1t can be

How much of it?"
"All. and more, too. I invested it so

"YOu are n genius" said the lawyer

Our VIII and Our Beliefs.

Pelief and unbelief are not simply thp ef-
feet OF more o. less evidence presented to-
the mind. II thev werr so and the human
mind acted in this uniform way upon evi.
dence we all would come to an agreement
about things Great as well as small. and
that very Quickly. But we see tina the
evidence which convinces one man le,ves
another untouched bv its force. While
other elements enter into the problem it
is not 20 be doubted that the choice Of the
win has much to do with our beliefs. We
decide to believe or TO disheieve, accord.
ing to our notion of what will suit us. The
man who is following course Of conduct
which must fall under the divine coDdem
nation. has n treat inducement to disbe-
lieve either Gods existence or His retribu.
tive justice. As Clough says:
"'There is no God the wicked saith.
And, if 80. it's blessing;
For what He might have dore with US
It's better only guessing"
But he who is striving toward higher
and purer life has an equally great induce
ment TO believe that God is, and is the
helper and insDirer of all honest effort to-
ward things above Hin. His needs make
him welcome every disclosure God makes
of Himself as the SUN of all perfections,
and. mans guide and support in seeking
perfection,
