In almost every field of human eli
deavOr the jew excels. There is phil
osophic reason for this which has no re-
lation to essential superiority. The Jew
is thorough. He is so as result of
long necessity. The world has vainly
sought to deprive him of the means of
existence. He was quick to understand
that with merely equal merit he could
not hope for an even chance. He per
ceived that his only promise Of survival
under the handicap of race lay in su-
perior qualifications. He applied him
self. He learned to master difficulties
and surmOunt obstacles. Discounted
by prejudice, he realized that his work
must carry premium of value in or
der to reach parity in the open market

Graduated Mourning.

to the house of mourning paused at the
door Of one of the villagers to ask,
"Your husband is going to the funeral

edged that the occasion was a most
grievous one, but repeated, rs your
husband going to the funeral?" This
woman replied with caution, Hes

will be going" The cottager assumed
a confidential tone as she asked in
turn, do you know if he's supposed
to go as a mourner or a bearerT
"Why, as a bearer, of course" was the
answer Of the astonished lady. "Ah,
well, he'll be going then. You see, II

If Mr.. Stetson will be good enough to

Stetson looked at his watch. He could

He bad been trapped, but he was
glad of it. He was especially glad to
know that she was willing to take
such pains to find him. 1t showed that
she really did care and justified his
earlier opinion of her.
He wished that he could announce
general half holiday in the office, but
since this was not possible without ex-
PLANTATION he could at least take one

He was uptown Mt IL and spent the
rest of the time in pacing his room
and deciding upon the important item

until it was time to start and set out
afoot that he might at least kill time
that way.

CASUAL PHILOSOPHY.

What one goes into debt for nine
times out of ten is luxury.
A man always making excuses leaves
himself no time to make anything else.
Business based upon friendship
threatens both; friendship based upon
business strengthens both.
That man can best ignore the enmity
of those who don't understand him
who goes home to a wife who does.
1t is a good deal easier to pray for
mems souls than to pour balm into
their wounds, not to mention that it
costs less
The supreme court has not yet decid
ed which is the weaker man-he who
is not able to see his own weakness or
he who has no faith in himself.
From an intellectual point of view
that time of ones life is most wasted
when he tries, in spirit of dumb 10y
atty, to admire all those things that are
popularity considered admirable.-Suc-
cess.

Creeping Salt.

Here is something in the course OF
natural phenomena that will interest
and instruct the little folk if they look
into it curlously: Into Il tumbler hair
full of water dissolve just as much
common table salt as can be held III
solution. Let it stand for few days
and see how the salt creeps out OF the
water, up the inside of the glass and
down the outside-just like thing OF
life trying to escape from its environ
ment. And when all the salt Is ap-
parently out of prison the water re-
mains as salty as before! 1t is pretty
demonstration.

After the Duke of Wellington's vic

Oxford complimented the duke him
self and his principal officers by con-
ferring upon them the honorary and
not very appropriate degree of doctor
Of civil laws. At that time the fees
were heavy. and one of the distinguish

the proffered degree in the following

CHLOROPHYLL.
To This Substance Is Due the Color
ing of Plants.


ing of Plants.
Chlorophyl is perhaps the most inn
pOrtant coioring substance in the
world. for upon this substance depend
the characteristic activity of plants. the
synthesis of complex compounds from
carbon dioXidc and water process, upon
which the existence of all living things
is ultimately conditioned. Only in
very few unimpOrtant forms devoid of
chlorophyll can the syntheSis of com
pick from simple compounds or from
the elements be accomplished. The
function of chorophyll may only be
comprehended when its chief physical
properties are understood. These may
be best illustrated by placing gram
Of chopped leaves of grass or geranium
in few cubic centimeters of strong
alcohol for an hour.
Such n solution will be of a bright,
clear green color, and when the vessel
containing it is held in such manner
that the sunlight is reflected from the
surface of the liquid it will appear
blood red, due to its property of fluor-
escence, that of changing the wave
length of the rays of light of the violet
and Of the spectrum in such manner
as to make them coincide with those of
the red end. 1t is by examination Of
light which has passed through solu-
ton of chlorophyll. however, that the
greatest insight into its physical prop
critics may be gained. If such ray of
light is passed through Il prism and
spread out on a screen. it may he seen
that there are several large intervals
of dark bands in the spectrum. The
rays of light which would have occu-
pied these spaces have been absorbed
by the chlorophyll and converted into
heat and other forms of energy This
energy is directly available to the pro-
toplasm containing the chlorophyll, and
by means of it the synthesis of com.
pick substance may be accomplished.

The Birds at Dinner.

If we notice carefully the beaks of

Indicating their habits of feeding. to
locate them in their families and thus
lead us to their correct names All the
sparrowS have short. stout beaks, well
suited TO cracking open seeds and
grain. which are their usual food. The
thrushes have curved bill, convenient
for holding worms and digging in the
soil. They find most of their food on
the ground, pOking among the dead
leaves and rubbish for grubS, beetles
and larvae. Our robins. which are true
thrushes. do valuable spring work in
the garden and lawn pulling worms
from the soil. Have you ever watched
a robin at work? How he tugs and
pulls when the worm is long and does
not come easily. There are an energy
