''Mr. Jewell told me then that if he
voted against the Farris push he might
as well walk out. He said he knew how
much money went down there from the
Baking Powder Trust. 1t was a cold
blooded proposition, he said, and he knew
it would take three votes to repeal the
bill. He told me it would take 5000 to
get his vote and two others. I sent a
telegram, at his suggestion. to Jacques.
notifying him that 5000 would secure the
repeal OF the bill.
Then, by appointment with Senator
Jewell. met him the next morning In the
Coates Hotel to tell him the result Of
my telegram to the house. I told him that
the house would not take it up. Jewell
urged me to get the house to pay ths
5000. He said if ! got the 5000, I was
to go to Jefferson City and register at
the Monroe House as McCrary, and hs
would come to my room and I could pay

Emperor Gave Up Power

There is an important difference be-
tween the constitutions of western ma
tons and that of Japan. The former
are the outcome of popular uprisings
against the tyranny of rulers-in
other words, of a demand, as of nat
ural right, by the people. Conse-
quently, even in monarchical Europe,
constitutions are drawn in such terms
as to lay the greatest stress upon pop
ular rights, while at the same time
curtailing the power of the sovereign.
The Japanese constitution, on the
other hand, emanated from the En-
peror, the fountain head of all power
Before the people dreamed of popular
rights or of a Parliament the Emperor
had already marked out the erand
policy of establishing constitutional
government in the future, because of
his evident desire and purpose to ele-
vate the country to an equal place
among the civilized nations of the
world, not only because he wished 1t,
but also because that course was in
strict accordance with the national

They Understood Weather.

The Temple of the Winds at Ath-.
ems shows the knowledge the ancient
Greeks had of the weather that came
when the wind blew from different
points of the compass. 1t is a little
marble tower with eight sides. which
are built to face the eight principal
winds. On each side of the temple is
carved a human figure that pictures
the character and qualities Of the par
ticular wind it faces.
The north wind is represented as
q man warmly dressed. blowing on a
trumpet made of a seashell to show
that it brought booming cold weather.
The northeast wind, which then, as
now, brings cold snow and sleet or
hail, is figured by an old man with
cruel face, who is rafting slingstones
in a shield an action that brings to
mind the noise and power of hail
storms.
The east wind, which brings to
Athens rain for growing crops, is eX-
pressed by the image of a young man
with flowing hair and open face, hav-
ing his looped-up mantle nlled with
fruit, honeycomb and corn.
The west wind is indicated by the
figure of slightly clad and beautiful
youth with his lap full of flowers.
And so on with the winds from all
around the compass. Each has its
qualities written in stone by the
ancient Grecian sculptors.
Reading these pictures of different
kinds of weather and comparing them
with the records of to-day, the mod
ern scientist learns that the climate Of
Greece has not changed enough to
make any great difference, so far as
the winds are concerned, for more
than twenty centuries.

Now procure some empty cigar

me tell you about this one, and you
will see 1t is not difficult-more than
that, you boys need not be stopped by
a few difficulties, even If there were
some.
The boy who starts out to build any
thing for himself and builds it well,
is very likely to be the boy who, in
later years will make his way in the
world. And the boy who builds boat
is far and away ahead of the boy who
doesn't.
The boat that you build and paint
and name yourself will bring you
more fun to the minute than the boy
who doesn't build one is likely to have
in his entire boyhood.
To begin with, when you make up
your mind to build boat, remember
that its first requisite is safety. II
you love boating, you love perhaps the
noblest and cleanest of all sports, a
sport that will, If you follow it out,

When Water Blooms.

Any one who has ever been at any
of the lakes in the middle and north
of the United States will know that
at a certain time of July or August they
are said to flower"
Fishermen are particularly well ac-
auainted with this fact, for at such
times very few fish can be induced to
take the hook.
In some lakes nothing can be seen
when they are Towering except by
the natives, who know from the ap-
pearance of the water. But in other
lakes the water becomes quite thick
and yellow, seeming muddy or tawny
in some parts and a clear gold in
others.
This Towering" of the lakes is just
what the name denotes, although many
of the inhabitants Ct the lake shores
do not know what it is and cannot ex-
plain it, except by the vague state
ment that at a certain time of mid
summer the lakes seem to work"
The Towering" is real towering
It is due to the blossoming of a water
plant which lives under the surface
all year long till the times for flower
ing, when il rises toward the top and
throws off myTiads OF small golden
yellow spheres which fill the water.

Bible Still in Demand

On " dnesday, March Z, 1904, "a
numerous and respectable meeting Of
persons of ,arious d"0yr'-7 lions"
was held at the Londo r-}u,A, and a
society formed TO promote the circu-
lation of the holy scriptures in the
principal living languages"
At that time the Bible, or portions
of it, could be obtained in about forty
living languages, spoken by two-tenths
of the race. During the century
since the meeting at the London tav-
ern adjourned, and very largely from
the machinery then and there start
ed, the scriptures have been trans
lated into $50 languages and dialects.
understood by seyen.tenths Of the
race.
By the London society alone 1907
100000 copies have been distributed
at an expense of $7O,OOO,OOO. If to
this total is added the 100000
copies already distributed by the
