''Peace Trust a Possibility

An English writer has turned his
eyes toward a group of the enormously
rich men of this country and asks if
it would be possible for the wealth
and power they and others represent
to be welded together in the cause Of
a world peace. He says: would a
peace trust be possible under the ex-
listing conditions of social and politi-
cal life? A war trust is not an I'M
known thing, since every great loan
promoted for the benefit of fighting
nation is proof of capitalistic organi-
zation. The Rockefellers, Morgans.
Vanderbilts and Carnegies of Ameri-
ca, together with countless men
whose absurd riches have been made
less ostentatiously, have not inherited
the tradition of making money for
the mere pleasure of the making; they
are likely to establish a tradition for
themselves. They have ideas, and
would like to be numbered among the
immortals. The opportunity presents
itself; they could combine their influ-
ence upon the worlds stock markets,
declare themselves the opponents of
any financial group that sought to
make war possible and in the moment
when the strength of their attitude
was recognized they would be hailed
as saviors of mankind.

"Czars, kaisers, sultans and all OF

their price, and the packing OF pork

to fancy that he would have been
splendid captain of industry. But the
great lawyers. and the splendid cap
tains of industry might, if they would
tell some stories of disillusion about
the business. They would certainly
say that if unsuccessful preachers and
teachers put no more effort and inter-
est into the law or into industry than
they have put into preaching and
teaching, the end would be the same
disappointment and the same longing
for something else.
Happy is the man who has found
his work" 1t is pity that so many
persons have apparently not found
the work that they could best do and
be happy in it. But sometimes it ap-
pears to us as if those who complain
because they did not choose rightly.
and who give up their thought to spec
ulations of how much better they
could have done if they had done
something else, are not quite doing
themselves and their opportunities full
justice.
The secret Of happiness in an occu-
patton is usually in the worker himself
more than it is in the occupation. And
it mostly comes from the disposition
and the determination to do the best
possible, even if a mistake or bad for
tune have made a wrong choice. Not
in fancying that better could have
been done, butsin doing the best you
can where you are is found the recipe
of contentment with a life-work.

An Antitoxin for Laziness

sealed glass tubes, preferably in Ii
quid air. This toxin or poison, inject
ed into other guinea pigs, produced
symptoms of exhaustion followed by
death within twenty-four hours. The
same poison could not be obtained
from the muscles of non exhausted
animals.
AntitoXin corresponding to the tox-
in thus procured is produced very
much like that of diphtheria by in
jecting the toxin into the circulation
of horses When dried in a vacuum,
the resulting scales-unlike those Of
the toXin-are permanent. In fact,
the substance retains it's activity even
after months It is readily taken up
by the stomach, but is generally in
iected under the skin by means of a
hypodermic syringe.
Small animals,' into which the toxin
was injected, remained in a perfectly
normal condition when treated with
the antitoxin, but succumbed to the
poison when the antitoxin was not ad-
ministered. The Introduction of the
antitoxin did not produce any dis
turbance whatsoever; on the contrary,
it was followed by increased vigor
and energy.

his discovery will be of importance in

Discover Secret Of JapS

That carefully nursed and guarded

In the nursery OF 'Fruitlands,' on
the outskirts of Augusta, Ca, stands a
peculiar orange tree which has had 4
more romantic history and is repre-
scented by more varied descendants
than any other tree in the country. 1t
is a thorny bush, green even in win
ter, although its leaves are gone and
looks more like hedgeplant than an
orange tree in spite of the tiny yellow
balls which ornament its branches.
When Japan was thrown open to
western commerce it's quaint plants
and shrubs were among the first
things to attract attention to it. Tiny
orange trees SO small that they grew
in tubs and could be set on a stand in
an ordinary room, yet SO perfect that
they produced blossoms and fruit in
season and so gnarled that they were
evidently very old, were brought to
America to ornament the conservator-
les of plant lovers. American garden
ers sought in vain the stock which
was the basis for these dwarfs. 1t
was evidently a grated tree, and from
its seeds variety of things, none of
them like the root stalk, were OBJ
tanned.
Some of the earliest of the importa-
tons came to Fluitlands. Many died.
One Of those which died was thrown
out on heap of rubbish, became
buried and was forgotten. After
