That the early struggles OF the sue.

other day here in q way that was not
without its pathetic side. A recent
patron OF one Of the fashionable ho-

emily considerable pride how he had
gone to America with a dollar in his
pocket and is now worth 10000. 900.
A correspondent who interviewed
him was mucn impressed. and in writ
Ing the story made reference to that
fact In complimentary way, never
dreaming it would cause a family
quarrel. A day or two later the cor
respondent met the successful Amer

Young man. you have caused me a
lot of trouble" said the latter.
How is that?"

Well. that's not it," replied the

But surely you feel proud of what

Yes. L do, and for my part I'm

Comment Is often made on the SUI
premacy of the Jewish element In the
theatrical field. Miss Ellen Terry puts
her finger on the secret of it in her
comments on Disraeli She expresses
a liking for his novels because of
their color, their pageantry, and then
says: "Disraeli was heaven-born art
.st, who, like so many of his race on
the stage, in music and elsewhere.
seems to have an unerring instinct for
the things which the gentle only ac.
quires by labor and training" In
other words it is not the commercial
sense alone, as so many assume. that
makes Jews succeed in this field. but
the instinct she speaks of for what
will please.

The Decisive Factor.

Temperament 10 a word that has
fallen into some discredit, according
to writer in the Revue Scientiflque.
but after all. temperament itself is the
decisive factor in the daily life of
every human being. Heredity counts
for much, no doubt, and environment
Is very important; but heregity and
environment together are not so in
fuential in determining the factor of
ones everyday life as temperament.
An illustration of its potency is seen
In the ease with which fortune teller
can read the past Of a perfect stran-
ger. Many well-informed persons are
skeptical when clairvoyants claim to
be able to read the past life of an in
dividual. The too credulous, on the
other hand, are amazed when some
fortune teller states accurately the
record of their lives. The feat is CON-
paratively easy. One needs but to
know what human beings tempera-
ment is-sanguine. Emphatic, bilious
or nervous-in order to read an out
line OF his or her past. Hence all i'm
posters OF the successful sort, like
Cagliostro. for instance. studied hui

ter, we are told, is destiny. 1t would
be more scientific to say that temper.
ament is destiny. Opposed tempera-
ments, II united too closely, may lead
TO divorce, to rivalry, to a thousand
and one complications inexplicable
upon any other hypothesis. Before we
can estimate any man or woman truly
we must satisfy ourselves as to his or
her temperament.

Secret of Good Garden MAKING.

In order to have good gardens we
must really care for the plants in
them, AMI know them individually as
well as collectively. This is an impor-
tant part of the technique of the gar.
denmaker he must know intimately
the form and texture as well as the
color OF all the plants he uses; for
plants are to the gardener what his
palette is to painter The two arts
OF painting and garden design are
closely related, says Scribner's, except
that the landscape gardener paints
with actual color, line, and perspective
to make a composition, as the maker
OF stained glass does, while the paint
er has but fiat surface on which to
create his Illusion; he has, however,
the incalculable advantage that no
sane person would think of going be-
hind a picture to see if it were equally
interesting from that point of view.

SERMONETTE.

because the Lord was with him
and was departed from SAUL"
What a commentary this is on
the spiritual condition Of Saul!
Afraid of David! that noble
hearted, brave, unseIfish defend
er Of his nation and his king.
Afraid Of David! that open,
frank, unassuming young man
who sought not his own good but
that Of the king. Afraid of David!
that simple country lad who had
so modestIy taken his place in
the kings palace and had minis
tered to the ill-natured kinq by
his sweet music. Think of it!
Afraid Of David, because filled
with devotion to God and love to
mankind, he ought by every act
Of his to perform some kindly
service for others. No, not afraid
OF David because the latter was
plotting against him; because he
was trying to work his hurt; be-
cause he was secretly his enemy
and was proving treacherous to
trust placed in his charge. No,
but afraid Of David, because the
Lord was with him. Think Of it!
Saul knew that he had been
rejected of God, or rather that
through his wilIfuI disobedience
he had rejected God, and then in
hardness of heart that knew no
repentance he had persisted in
his COURSE. Saul also knew that
God had chosen David. There is
no doubt but that at last the
amounting Of the shepherd boy
by Samuel had become known to
him and that the thought that
this young man had been set
apart as the coming king of
Israel filled his heart with hatred
and fear. He knew all this and
was foolish enough to think that
he could thwart Gods purposes;
that he could bar tho pathway of
the Divine will by the weak,
Po'y arm VI IlcSn.
There is no more pitiable or
awful picture in the Bible than
this picture Of Saul fighting
against God and Gods anointed.
Scripture says "the heather rage
and the people imagine a vain
thing. The rulers of the earth
set themselves and take counsel
together against the Lord and
against his anointed. But he
that stitch in the Heavens shall
laugh: the Lord shall have them
in derision." Oh, what folly to
fight against God.
We can in some measure un-
derstand how the heather can
fight against God, but how one
OF SauPs training, and opportuni-
ties and the light which had
come to him could so do, is quite
beyond our comprehension. But
does Saul stand alone in this
condition? is there any danger
that others who have walked
close to God as he did may yet
fall to the depths to which he
fell? After all, how was such
condition possible? II was taken
step by step in wilIful disobedi-
ence and violation of the Divine
will. And there is dancer to
every soul which INDUCES in sin
and persists therein that at last
Gods spirit will depart and leave
that soul forever. Let US not
commit the objectionable sin of
blasphemy against the Holy
Ghost.

Odd THINGS In Animals.

Unlike most animals. horses have
no eyebrows and hares are minus eye.
lids. Consequently the eyes of the
latter can not be shut and a thin
membraneous substance overs them
when asleep. The eye Of the owl is
also peculiar. seeing that 1t is i'm.
movably fixed In Its socket and can
not stir in any direction. To compen.
safe for this seeming disadvantage
it can turn its head almost completely
around without moving its body.
II you were to keep a frogs mouth
open many minutes it would soon die,
as. owing to its peculiar construction.
1t can breathe only with the mouth
closed. On the other hand, fishes are
compelled to keep opening and closing
their mouths in order to give their
respiration organs full play.
A curious fact about the eel Is that
1t has less life in its head than in its
tail, consequently. when killing an eel
the fisherman smashes IT'S tail: 1t also
has two hearts. Snakes usually have
their teeth in the head, but one varie-
ty in Africa. whose principal food is
eggs, Is provided with a substitute
for them In its stomach.
