The most graceful and at the same
time the most undoubtedly genuine
performances seem to be those OF the

MALTA is of the slightest, consisting
chiefly Of a top and some paper but
terdies.- An eyewitness thus describes
them: 'sHe took an ordinary boys top
and spun it in the air, then threw the
end of the string back toward it with
such accuracy that it was caught up
and wound itself all ready for the
second cast. By the time it had done
this it had reached his hand and was
ready for another spin" The paper

CHARACTER TO
THE FRONT
Leaders Consider It the
Ore Solution of National Problems.

From the Wall Street Journal
The keynote of all the addresses
that have been made lately at col
Ilese corimencements and at all meet
ings of business mems associations
ter. 1t is remarkable how this word
character runs through all the re-
cent speeches and papers. It IS as
If, by common impulse. our inteliec-
tual leaders had stopped talking about
this or that economic problem, this
or that political issue. and this or
that means of attaining success in
life. and had returned to the develop
Inent of character as the one solution
Of all national problems.
Thus. one of the principal speakers
before the National Credit Men's AS
sociation dwells upon the factor of
personal character as the basis or
all credit. Thus one of our eminent
lawyers. in long address, urges the
necessity Of teaching Christian moral,
ity-in other words. character-in the
higher schools as the foundation OF
all other instruction. President Fin
ley, of the City College, urges his stu
dents not to make wealth and sue
cess the sole aim of their endeavor.
but to acquire courage and character.
The best way. he says. to equallze the
Inequalities met with in life is to de-
velop character President Schur-
mans recent address before Cornell
University was along the same line.
President Hndley. of Yale, says that
as nations acquire wealth and domin'
ion they are in danger of suffering the
loss Of faith and enthusiasm, and that
the chief danger which confronts US
comes from this loss of faith and en-
thusiasm and from the adoption OF
selfishness as the basis of human con
duct President Harris, of Amherst,
speaks much to the same effect. These
are only a few Of the multitude OF
addresses and articles which have ap-
peared in the last month. which dwell
xnon character as the fundamental
need of the times.
Why. it may be asked, is this In
sistence upon such thing which
would seem SO obvious? 1t is because
these thinkers and leaders believe
that in our strenuous efforts to in
crease the individual and collective
wealth of the nation we are losing
sight of the basic principles of moral,
|ity? It would appear So II they are
right, no teaching and no preaching
whether from platform. pulpit. or
press could be more practical than
| this.

.sf1amIct" at EIsinore-

Shakespearean commentators have
wondered why the poet placed the
scenes of Hamlet at Elsinore, in the
island Of Zealand, whereas the Danish
prince lived and died In Jutland- But
the municipal authorities at Elsinore
discovered in their archives that an
English company was acting in their
town in 1887 or 1858. and among the
names of the actors are several of those
who were acting with Shakespeare In
London in 1850. Obviously these &C
tors must have talked about their adj
ventures in Denmark. and so Shake
speare became well acquainted with
Elsinore and when he wrote Hamlet
naturally placed the scene in place
which he knew by description rather
than in place of which he knew moth

Icon Subjects.

Icons may represent anything from
the figure Of a saint to a historical
scene, such as q martyrdom. Often
they take the form Of a diptych or n
triptych or polyptych crowded With
angular or din1inutive figures of saints
or NINA ture scenes from the life OF the
Virgin or some other Biblical person
age. From the number Of scenes con-
tanned in these objects the peasants
came to call them "churches, for there

PERMANENT MAGNETS.
The Simplest Way of a1n&netizinE< n

The simplest way Of maSnetizlng

laid on the table and the pole of Il pow

twenty times along it's length. always
in the same direction. If the north
pole of the magnet is employed tile end
of the bar first touched vii! also be-
come north pole, while the opposite
end, at which the magnet is lifted be-
fore returning, Will be q south pole
There are other and more compiled ted
methods, known as divided touch
and double touch" in which two and
even four magnets are employed
A steel bar can also be magnetlzed
by placing it within a coil of insulated
wire. through which a galvanic current
is circulating The magnetism induced
in this way, however, is weak COM
