THE WORTH OF TOLL

The noblest men know On earth
Are men whose han is are brown
with toll;
Who, backed by no ancestral graves,
Hew down the woods and till the
soil,
And win thereby prOuder fame
That follows Kings or warriors name.
The workingmen, what'er their task
To carve the rtone or bear the
hod-
They wear upon theh honest brows
The royal seal and stamp OF God!
And brighter are their drops of sweat
Than diamonds in a corOnet!
God bless the noble workingmen,
Who rear the cities of the plain,
Who dig the mines and build the
ships,
And drive the commerce of the
main.
God bless them! for their swarthy
hands
Have wrought the glory of our lands.

It is curious fact that Mr.. Gully,
former speaker of the British house
of commons, at one time was very
despondent as to his future, and that
the dependency was shared by two
of his comrades in the legal profes-
sion. There is a story of those three
discussing seriously whether they had
not better throw up England altogeth-
er and seek fortune in India or one
of the colonies. Luckily they decided
to give their fortune another chance,
with very notable results. Mr.. Gully
ended as speaker of the house Of COM

lor; the third died when lord chief

A young Russian, claiming the title
of Prince Potemkine, and said to be
the son of Admiral Potemkine, from
which the mutinous battleship Kniaz
Potemkine derived it's name, is in
New York. He arrived on the French
liner La Bretagne. The young man
made the trip in the steerage, al
though when his property was ex-
amined at Ellis Islnd it was found
that he had nearly $4,000 in cash.
To his fellow travellers the young man
said he had sold his place in Russia,
had dividided sum, equivalent to
$1,000 among his ten aunts and had
left Russia for all time. He said after
a short sojourn in the east he would
go west and buy farm. He de-
claimed against existing conditions in
Russia and said he did not desire to
live longer in that country.

Deadly Freak Of Nature

The government OF the Republic of
Nicaragua has sent experts from the
capital to examine a remarkable and
deadly tree that was recently discov-
cred on the hacienda of Sonora Maria
~Gasteazoro, near the town of Petacal-
peque, department of Chinandega. To
the tree has been given the name of
arbol del diablo, or tree of the devil.
It's discovery was made through the
disappearance of a son Of Sonora Gas
teazoro. Several days later the body
of the boy and the carcass of the pony
he was riding were found under the
tree in a remote part of the hacienda.
1t was noticed that a sickly sweet odor
emanated from the tree, and those
who removed the body of the boy be-
came suddenly dizzy while under its
branches. Closer examination of the
boys body disclosed the fact that sew
eral bloodvessels had burst, and later
the same condition vas disclosed by
an examination of the remains Of the

Tea an Ideal Stimu1ant

Every little while there is an out
cry against the practice of tea and
coffee drinking. Lately it has been
alleged that the degeneracy observed
in the lower classes of Great Britain
is largely due to the immense quaint
ty Of tea which is drunk in that king
dom. Without any doubt a few peo-
pie do drink too much tea and would
be better without it. But tea-drink-
ing, as in China, may be the salvation
Of a people from much greater evils.
The decoctiOn has, at least, the adj
vantage of having been sterilized by
heat, and water-drinking in China has
its dangers, as many an old traveller
can testify.
The immense quantities of tea used
without apparent damage by some of
the most robust peoples in the world
other than the Chinese, such, for ex-
ample, as the Russians, the Hudson
bay yoyagers, and the lumbermen of
the north, does not testify to it's evil
effects on general health, under
proper conditions. For a cold coun-
try it is almost an ideal stimulant,
reviving the energies, even after al
most apparently complete exhaustion.

pony. Under the tree we're the bones
OF goats, hogs, burrOs and hundreds
of birds. 1t is supposed that tho boy,
coming upon the heap of bones,
stopped to investigate and that both
boy and pony were overpowered by
the deadly fumes from the tree.
Since that time the tree has been
examined to a limited extent by per-
sons on the hacienda, and it's deadly
operation has been noted. Along the
branches of the tree are small valve
Ike projections. open at the ends. 1t
is believed that the poisonous fumes
issue from these valves. A bird light
ing on a branch of the tree is caught
and held fast, and within a few min
ules the bloodvessels of its body
burst. News OF the discovery of the
tree has spread throughout Nicaragua
and has caused CONSERVATION among
the Indians. 1t is said that similar
trees have been discovered in Portu.
gal and Corea.

It's effect is not only to hurl objects

A velocity as high as 600 miles an

cent tornadoes have been computed by
neteorologists. The great waterspout

and affording a feeling of comfort
that hardly anything else can give,
and this without any noticeable I'M
comfortable after effects.
OF course, in our civilization there
are some who take too much of many
things for their own good. but even
in these cases it is hard to say that
the evil is as great as sometimes
charged. The practice OF giving large
quantities of strong tea to mere in
fants, which is common among GER
tain of the poorer classes of our cities,
Of course, cannot be too strongly con-
demned, but it is astonishing how
many infants seem to thrive on it.
There should be some discrimina-
ton in the general condemnation of
such stimulants as tea and coffee.
They probably do more good than
harm and we should welcome their
use if by any means or to any extent
they can be made a substitute for
things that are worse, and if the habit
were universal in some of Il unsani-
tary communities we might find it the
safeguard against many serious evils.

Latin Now Little used.

Latin has been the language of civil
lzstion since before the Christian era,
and contains about all the intellectual
treasures of the world till the six
teenth century. For a thousand years
nearly all who wrote had to write in
Latin to get readers, and nearly all
who read had to learn it in order to
know what was written. Before the
Latin, the Greek was the principal
language of civilization, which grad
Ually passed into the modern Greek,
while the Latin passed into the Italian,
French and Spanish, forking into three
principal branches. 1t ceased to be a
spoken language in the seventh cen
fury. In modern times our great Ian
guages have sprung up largely de-
rived from the Latin)-namely: the
German. French, English and Russian,
which now contain the worlds intel
,ectual treasures, so that there is moth
ing more written in Latin or Greek
and about all that is valuable is trans
lated into modern languages. Latin
and Greek are still Indispensable to
specialists in history and archaeology,
but are each year becoming less so to.

A typical tornado acts as follows; 1t
is a funnel-shaped tube a half-mile
high, 5000 feet in diameter at the top,
100 feet in diameter at the bottom. 1t
travels with a forward motion, cover
ing fifteen to sixty miles an hour.
The outer edge Of the top revolves at
the rate of seven miles an hour; the.
rim near the bottom of the vortex at
200 miles an hour. In the lower tube
Is thus produced tremendous centrifu-
gal force, a partial vacuum causing OBJ
jects in its path to explode and pro
ducing a low temperature.
This cold generates the sheath of
vapor that makes the funnel visible in
the form of a cloud and causes a con-
|densation, producing electric dis
charges, just as in thunderstorms on
a large scale. The tornado's duration
may vary from a few minutes to sew
