HE oLApDENED THE CHILDREN.
Baltimore Citizen Introduced German
TOYS in America.

Perhaps Mr.. Henry SchwarZ OF Bal
timore actually was not, as has been
claimed, the man who introduced
new element in American life by
bringing German toys here and open
ing the eyes of this country's children
10 their delights. Girls and boys,
doubtless, have had toys ever since 1t
has been possible to construct doll
out of rags or an imitation gun out OF
q stick of wood; but at any rate. Mr..
Schwarz was one of the pioneers In
bringing the German variety, which
may be described as the toy rescued
from barbarism and made civilized,
here. Az matter of business he ere
ated a demand for these wares and
then set himself to supply that de-
mand, but it is impossible to believe
that he did not have sympathy for
his work that was beyond business, a
genuine interest in childish pleasures.
otherwise he never would have had
the faith in his business and its ex-
tension which he did have.-Baltimore

an entire family for whole day. One
surly glance casts gloom over the

may light up the darkest and weariest

Kind words and gentle acts and sweet

will turn longingly toward it from all
the tumult of the world, and home, II

ought to rule but love. Authority is

SERIOUS EVIL OF THE DAY.
A Tendency to Exasgeration Becoming
All Too Common

Exaggeration is one of the most Sc.
rious evils of the day. 1t is common
in all the walks of life, people not be-
ing willing to see what is actually
before their eyes, but permitting their
imaginations to enlarge and extend
their view frequently to the limit of
the mental horizon. Few will deny it's
deleterious effect. Rumors on each
side OF the ocean for which there is
no reasonable basis throw the country
into a state of unhealthy anxiety and
do positive harm at times of a serious
character. Very recent events have
strikingly illustrated this. 1t is the
vogue, or it is temporary evil which
has seized upon the public and there
does not appear to be any remedy ex-
cept to let 1t run its course like any
other epidemic and pass away.-Bal-
timore American.

of a Chairman's introduction.

Of Chairman's Introduction.
A professor who acted as chairman
of meeting at which the late Max
O'Rell was to lecture introduced the
Frenchman in the following manner
Ladies' and Gentlemen: When we
wish to see ourselves as individuals
we have recourse to the mirror. This
we cannot do as nation. ! take
pleasure in introducing a gentleman
who will act as French mirror, by
means of which you will, | am sure,
obtain an adequate and pleasing view
of yourselves as nation"
The Introduction pleased O'Rell and
he responded in a vein as jorial: 81
am requested to reflect on nation.
However, | must take second place to
the man in the moon, for he reflects
on the earth AS an imported French
mirror | shall do the best can to give
you correct picture of the nation
And If your chairman remains where
he is, in the background, he will add
greatly to the reflective power of the
mirror"

TIE COOLEST LIQUID KNOWN
Scientists Asserts Nothing Can Equal
Liquid Hydrouen


Liquid hydrogen is by far the cold.
est liquid known at the present time.
AT ordinary atmospheric pressure it
boils at -422 degrees F., and reduc-
ton of the pressure by an air pump
brings the temperature down to -432
degrees. at which the liquid becomes
a solid, resembling frozen foam.
According to Prof. Dewar, to whom
the credit is due of having liquefied
hydrogen in 1898. the liquid is a color
less, transparent body. and is the
!!ghtest liquid known to exist, it's
density being only 1-14th that Of
water! the lightest liquid previously
known was liquid marsh gas, which
is six times heavier.
The only solid which has so small
density as to float upon it's surface is

Younsster obeyed His Mother, but He
Got the Cent.
A 5-year-old hoy who was attending
a kindergarten school was asked by
his teacher to take another little tot
home, reminding him that he would
receive cent for doing SO. He took
bis charge TO his door, but failed to
receive the promised payment from
the child's mother, and when he went
home told his mother the circum-
stances. His mother warned him not
to ask for the coin and he gave his
promise. About half hour afterward
he came back from play and gleefully
called to his mother:
81 got the cent"
Didn't tell you not to ask for it?"
demanded his mother.
Il didn't" maintained the boy stout
ly: 81 asked her if she forgot it."
Advice for Young Women.
fashionable woman of middle age
advises every young maiden as fol-
lows: Never marry man until you
have seen his upper lip. Man has an
advantage over us, because he can
read us through our lips. We cannot
read him through his mustache,
which, no mater how beautiful, is an
expressionless adornment. The upper
lip tells the character of both men
and women. If long and thick there
is coarseness. If thin there is cruelty.
If short and Cupid-bowed there is
delicacy. If straight and well drawn
against the teeth there is resolution.
Before saying Yes to your lover
make him shave and stay shaved for
a month. You will then learn his
character"

south of Lake Nyassa, in Africa, ever

time. Men drive their buggies and
ride their horses along the soft, sandy
beds of the Australian rivers in times
Of long drought, but when the rains
come the river steamers resume their
old places on the newly flushed
streams. It is very odd that this great
Shirwa lake should vanish SO COM

Variation Of Moscow Clocks a Source

OF annoyance.
Arthur Symons in his book on
"Cities" says that no two clocks in
Moscow agree: even in the best hotels
clock will solemnly strike 3 a quar-
ter of an hour before its neighbor
strikes Z. The confusion is increased
by the fashion of sticking up dummy
clocks in the streets as advertise
ments. The maddening moment comes
when you have to catch a train at
Moscow. The railway timetables are
worked on st. Petersburg time, which
differs by half an hour from Moscow
time, When you are told that the st.
Petersburg express leaves at o'clock
you are in doubt as to whether it
leaves at $3.50, or $3.50 by your care

The Deadly MOSQUITO.

The mosquito which injects yellow
fever with its probiscis bites by day
as we'll as by night, and is called the
day or striped mosquito. 1t is found
chiefly in cities, where it breeds In
any chance receptacle of water. The
eggs are laid in standing water, and,
although the receptacle may dry up,
the eggs do not desicate, but will
hatch as soon as it again contains
water. The larvae resemble those of
other mosquitoes, and are readily
killed by kerosene film on the sur.
face of the water.
