Improving n Cigar by Putting 1t Out

Improving n Cigar by Putting 1t Out.
Lighting new Havana, a downtown
professional man, after taking few
whiffs, blew into his cigar and forced
a lot of smoke out of the fiery end.
Then he laid it aside and permitted the
spark 10 die out
When asked for an explanation he
said: well. l learned that habit some
years ago, and l find that cigar
lowed to go out makes a much better
smoke. | take several vigorous draws
In order to bring the heat well through
the weed. If a cigar becomes cold
while II is saturated with smoke II has
a musty odor; consequently 1t is neces-
sary to blow steadily and quite hard
before extinguishing the spark In order
to clear out all the smoke that has
been drawn In between the layers OF
tobacco. After permitting the cigar to
lie ten or fifteen minutes or even
half hour ! find on relighting Il that
the flavor has greatly improved. The

PeAsimfsts on Man.
In his first novel, "Vivian Grey"
written almost In boyhood, Disraeh
writes: THE disappointment OF man
hood succeeds to the delusion of youth.
Let us hope that the heritage of old
age is not despair" While he writes
thus In youth, with all the world be-
fore him, In his maturity he says In his
finest novel. "Coningsby," Youth is
blunder, manhood struggle. old age

Bright colors assumed by naples,
sumacs and ampelopsis during the au-
tumn months are the result Of the OXi-
dizlng of the color compounds, or color
generators, of the leaf cells. Long pro
tracted cool weather is most favorable
to the production Of autumn tints, and
slight frosts that are not severe enough
to kill the cells hasten the display Of
beauty by producing an engine that
brings forth the bright puppies, oranges
and reds Leaves containing much
tannic acid never give bright autumn
tints, while those containing sugar give
the very prettiest.

Doctor and Dying Patient.

In an address before the American
Medical association an eminent physi-
clan, speaking on the question, "Shall
a Physician Tell Patient He Is Going
TO Die" said:
THE truth is not always SO alarming
TO the patient, painful as IT often is to
the physician. In fact, II seems 20 me
this Is one part of our duties that does
not become less trying with increasing
experience. To the sick man whose
thoughts have been turned toward the
end longer than others suspect. intima-
ton of fatal end often brings no
shock, but rather relief from the end
ing Of painful uncertainty. Accord
ing to the rulers Of the Roman Catholic
church q timely announcement should
always be given, and those who have
witnessed the last days of members of
this faith can confirm the statement that
good often follows. speaking merely
from q medical standpoint, and rarely
harm, while the same thing Is true OF
many of other faiths or OF no faith.
Even where we have to give fatal
prognosis there are certain modifying
influences that can be introduced, aside
from those that spring from tender
heart. A hope can be expressed based
on the fallibility of human knowledge

reasons. Sanballat became the ances-
tor Of the modern Samaritans, who
hated the Jews and were hated by
them. This antipathy has now ex-
tended to all the civilized nations,
even to the United States, where the
Jews are despised and looked down
on, and why? The Jews have been
missionaries to all lands, and have
given the civilized world the Bible
and Word of God. No missionary
that has lived or ever will live has
done one-half of what the Jews have
done, and, in return for their great
services, they are universally de-
spised" This is the reason for the
hatred of the Jews and Samaritans,
as told last night.
DR.. Rosedale will get up a party
soon to 90 to Palestine, remaining
there about a month or two, in order
that the great festival of the Samari-
tans, in which the rites are performed
exactly as they were by Aaron, and
at which the priest even wears the
breastplate may be seen by the Amer
leans. After the lecture the speaker
and his daughter sang several hymns.
DR.. Rosedale deviated in many
places from his subject, but, as a
whole, his lecture was very fine and
greatly enjoyed by the small audience.
The audiences that have heard DIR.
Rosedale have been small during his
stay in the city and he was disguested
with the lack of interest shown him.
But, perhaps, this may be explained
best by the fact the Jewish and Ara
bian lecturers are no novelty or rarity
now, Richmond having almost had
surfeit of such lectures this year.

Concerning the sword drawn, he
said: "The man who girds himself
with the sword is expected to draw it
and use it when high occasion calls.
There is about the spirit of Christi

was a Knight of medieval France.
One day the rude warrior went to
church. He heard a sermon that pOr-
trayed the arrest Of Jesus Christ. AS
he listened his soul famed at the in

ing his sword hilt he cried out: 20
CrilIon, where vert thou then? SO it
was with Peter. He could not brook
the indignity put upon his Master by
from the garden. And so like light
ming flash he draws his Galilean weap-
on, and smites one of the insulting
rabble. You may say it was a rash
act, l say it was right loyal act.
There was valor in that stroke.
There was religion in it.

A GREAT TROUBLE
Japanese are fighting for these"

Japanese are fighting for these.''
In conclusion Mr. Parker spoke of
the aftertime of war, when the sword
should be sheathed. ''War is after
all a dangerous and frightful bust
ness,' said he. Car be it from me
to throw about it any unreal glamour.
With Lord Wellington I would say
that the horrors of a single day of
battle are enough to disabuse any
sound mind from its ideal charm.
War has cost this old world of ours
untold treasure. Not less than thir-
ty-fve million precious lives have
been laid upon its bloody affairs.
There Is danger of trusting, except
for exigencies, to brute force. What
Christ said to Peter he said for the
worlds teaching Take the sword,
when exigencv demands; use it as a
good soldier should. But take care
to sheath it again lest it destroy you.
For true it holds today that they who
take the sword may perish by the
sword. IF war must be, let US pray
that its awful desolation be not I'M
duly prolonged. Ultimately Christi
anity must make not for war but for
peace.
The time draws on when nations
shall cease to arm, when cannon shall
rust, when battleships shall be dis
used hulks, and when among the ma
tons peace shall reign because the
Prince of Peace shall be the one Lord
of the whole earth. -

DEALT WITH IN STEREoPTICoN
LECTURE BY DR..
ROSEDALE.
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
The Subject Greatly Enjoyed by the
Audience-Has Left
the City.
CHURCH

A small audience heard DR.. James
Rosedale at the First Presbyterian
church last night 1t was his fare
well appearance, as he left this morn
ing. Dr. Rosedale, or De Wad-el-
Ward, to call him by his Jewish
name, is forceful, emphatic, yet
pleasing speaker, with no trace of ac-
cent to mar his English, which he
speaks as distinctly as a native Amer
lean. His articulation is perfect, and
his English is very good. His sub
ject last night was, The Jews Have
No Dealings With the Samaritans. !"
The first part of the lecture dealt
with the coming of Christ. HThe
Jews had not forgotten the time when
they were a separate, Independent ma
ton, and looked for great temporal
lord, who would again raise the jew
ish nation to the rank of the high
est. But Christ came as the son of
a poor carpenter, with little or no
education, always travelling around
with his father in search of work
Yet this same boy was able to hold
converse with the greatest thinkers
and theologians Of the times in the
Temple, although it is wonderful
what a small education Christ had.'
He spoke of the great colleges that
were in Jerusalem at that time, the
famous theological universities, and
said: "Christ had no education
from any of these. No, his education
was cleaned from the greatest of all
that of adversely"
He also gave fine description of
ST. Jacob s well, in the valley be-
tween two high mountains and, mar
rated the causes of the building of
the we'll by Jacob.
The second part Of his lecture was
devoted to his subject.
"The reason that the Jews and
Samaritans do not mingle is this:
When Nebchadnezzar took captive
the elders and great men of the Jews
he left the lower classes in Palestine
and, to be sure that they would not
rise against him, he placed Sanballat,
with several other high Babylonians
over the Jews to keep them down.
When, however, the captive Jews re-
turned to their native country, San
ballat and his friends had done such
great wrongs and committed such ex-
cesses that he and they were afraid
to go back to Babylon, lest they
might be made TO answer for their
crimes. SO they used strategy. San
ballat made many excuses for remain
ing in the land, alleging the richer
land, the fact that they had now be-
come accustomed to the Jewish ways
and other things and asked to be al
lowed to settle in the land, on condi-
ton that his descendants be made
priests. But the Jews would have
none Of it, or have nothing to do with
him. They hated him, and with good

unsatisfactory in every way, was long
drawn out and rough. Higgins and
Hart for the visitors were very fast
and played like lightning. Jessup
had ten more stops to makes than Gu
sic and each team lost a goal on fouls.
Farrell, Muncie' s center, was put out
of the game for attacking Bone, and
Dewitt, Muncie's utility man, who
took Farrell's place, was badly hurt
and had to have the attention of
physician. After long delay the
game was finished with four men on
either side, Cunningham retiring.
