In The Name
Of Liberty

A NEW Story by Owen John
\ son, author of Arrows of
the Almighty" This is an in
tensely interesting story of the
time of the French Revolution.
But while it has the Reign of Ter
ror for the background, it is dis
tinctly a story of the people Of
Paris during that thrilling period.
Instead of being a story of the
Revolutionary leaders, it portrays
the unrest of the people, the au-
thor taking it for granted that the
reader has some knowledge OF the
historical events of those turbu-
lent days.
Mr.. Johnson has caught remarkably
well the suppleness of the French char

characters stand out boldly, and hold the

unir and Wool.

I'VE microscope shows ut glance
the enormous difference between hair
and wool. Hairs, like nails, are modi-
1cations of the epidermis or skin and
are composed Of horny cells which have
flattened and confessed and 80 prac-
tically make comparatively smooth
shaft which presents an even surface
when magnified hundreds Of diameters.
Wool Is distinguished from hair by
two very important properties. Each
fiber of wool is covered with minute
overlapping scales, all turned in one
direction like the states on roof.
These are not visible to the eye, but
can be felt when the fiber is drawn
between the fingers in direction ex-
actly opposite to the run Of the scales.
Another property of wool Is Its great
elasticity, derived from the fact Of Its
flbers being SO finely crimped or curled
that they can be drawn to considerable
lengths and return to the original state
when the pressure is removed. It is
this property which makes wooden
fabrics so different from cotton or lin
en-. A third important difference is its
power of felting or becoming SO mat.

processes cloth can be made from II

OVERCOMING OBSTACLES.

The Joy One Feels In Becoming Mas
ter of the situation.
There is something in the very con-
seriousness that we are master of the
situation that confronts us, especially
il it is difficult, that is wonderful
tonic. The sense of mastery, of victory
in what we undertake, is perpetual
uplift TO life. 1t is a powerful tonic to
ambition, u perpetual stimulus to en-
deavor.
a man feels larger every time he sur
mounts an obstacle which perhaps
seemed insurmountable. There is q
sense Of added power in every victory,
n feeling of enlargement ut the very
thought of overcoming.
feeling Of eXultation thrills through
the whole system when we have con-
quered, when we have proved ourselves
masters of the situation. There is an
eXhilaration which accompanies the
sense of victory that makes us long to
undertake even harder things.
Achievement is not only q mental
but also physical tonic. Thousands of
semi-invalids and people who have been
ailing for years have suddenly bios
somed into health and vigor after some
great success or good fortune has come
to them which has changed an iron to
velvet environment. The feeling that
the wolf has been banished forever
from the door by some great effort Of
ours is Il wonderful stimulant to the
physical being.
After man has struggled years and
years perhaps on some invention and
has been balancing 'twixt hope and
despair, suffering defeats and discour-
agements, barely able to keep his fam
lily from starving while he has been
struggling to supply the missing link
in his device, when the consciousness
first dawns upon him that he has found
the secret, that he has solved the mys-
terry, and that henceforth all that has
troubled and pcrpleXed him is destined
to be wiped away, that in place of the
detraction, scorn and contempt which
have been poured upon him us crank
there will be admiration, praise and
fame, the change wrought both in the
physical and the mental man is almost
miraculous. The rebound makes II COM
plete revolution in his life. Hope takes
the place of despair, confidence OF
doubt, assurance of uncertahty.-Suc.

FIGHTING OXEN.
The .l no.ten.ot. Trained Cattle t

Charge Riderlcss Into battle.
When the Dutch first settled ut the
Cape they found that the original Hot
tentots owned large herds Of cattle
which they regularly rode and trained
to act as guardians of their other cat
tie and their camps. So admirably were
these animals trained that they used
to charge before the tribesmen In bat
tie, apparently without riders, though
there may have been mounted leaders.
An old writer named Kolben says:
Every Hottentot army is provided
with a large troop Of these war oxen,
which permit themselves to be govern
ed without trouble and which their
leaders let loose at the appointed mo-
ment. The instant they are set free
they throw themselves with impetuos-
ity upon the opposite army. They
strike with their horns, they kick, they
rip up and trample beneath their feet
all that opposes them. They plunge
with fury into the midst of the ranks
and thus prepare an easy victory. The
manner in which these oxen are train
ed and disciplined certainly does great
honor to the talent of this people,"

THE USE OF JEWELLERY.
1t Is Something More Than a Love of
Pretty Tribes.

1t In Something More Than a Love of
Pretty Tribes.
Even in its modern form when orna-
ment has been left almost wholly to
women 1t is something more than a
love of pretty trilles. On the persons
of the female members of his family
the man loves to see the display of the
wealth which in these days is power,
and, If modern taste will not allow it
in himself, it is still indulgent to his
vicarious display of it through his
women. SO far as women themselves
consciously aid and abet in this asser-
ton of power, SO far they may claim
to be acquitted from the charge of
sheer vanity. Women of families who
have become recently rich love most
to display their jewelry, and it may be
there is not SO much vanity as asser-
ton in 1t Of their claim in virtue Of
wealth to be respected and honored.
Those women who have undisputed
claims to distinction exercise more dis
erection, and their chief displays are on
those occasions when it is congruous
to emphasize their social power and IN
fuence. Thus to the end we have the
close connection between ornament and
money which has existed from the be-
ginning.-London Saturday Review.
