Locusts of Exodus.

The majority of those who have
written upon the subject are of the
opinion that they were real locusts."
The locust used to be very common
food in eastern countries, and are still
eaten in many localities in the orient.
By other authorities, however, it is
contended that the "Salvim" used by
the writer of the Exodus means quails,
and not locusts.-N. Y. American.

Present Giving Worse Than Tipping.

Present Giving Worse Than Tipping.
The trend Of the times makes itself
felt in the matter of presents and
present giving. In the days of our
grandmothers these tokens of affection
were few and far between and were
marked by stern simplicity. But we
have changed all that, and the up-to-
date riot of presents means deadly
drain on our bank balances.
The tipping tax is bad enough, but
the burden of countless presents can
give it points and a beating.

Women and the Suffrage.

The severest criticism of the stu
pidity and inefliciency of the parlia
ments of the world is, in M. Marcel
Prevost's opinion, the most universal
Indifference Of women on the subject
of voting. Neither the represents
tive nor the voter" says this expert in
feminine psychology, "excites their
envy. They do not even think about
the vote, and if men offer it as a gift
they pay no attention, burst out laugh
Ing or refuse point blank"

from his heart and not from his lips,
and what he said fell upon his hear
ers' hearts and not upon their ears.
The great crowd knew that it was find
ing it's voice 1t was an American
citizen speaking to Americans of the
problems in the American heart. 1t
was deep speaking with deep.
And the waves lulled and were quiet.
And then, not while he was at eli
max, but as the man before them was
reaching deeper and deeper into the
soul of the place and the occasion, the
sibilant lisp of the crowd hushed, and
in the great silence the man spoke,
simply and strongly and without ora
torical flourish or emphasis. He has
enforced the laws as he found them,
and so he is the best abused and most
popular man in America"
It was not much of tribute But a
wave of sincere feeling swept over
the quiet tide of humanity. 1t was not
q strong wave-not much stronger
than the first wave that came rolling
in. But another wave followed it, ana
another higher and stronger came af-
ter it, The speaker, who did not rea-
lie what was about to come, put out
his hand to beg silence, but huge
wave of applause came over him, and
he ducked and backed off good-na-
turedly and let the wind of emotion
play as it would across tbs restless
sea before him.

At Flood Tide.

In another minute, PERHAPS two, Sen.
ator Lodge rose again to face the riS
ing tide, but it rolled in on him with
a great roar and men knew that the
storm of applause had come which
Theodore Rooseyelt's work as an
American citizen had conjured. So
they let it rage, and for nearly an hour
the waves of that storm broke and
roared in that place.
Then the crowd, in that hour of joy,
gathered individuals in and they
ceased to be individuals and became
the crowd At times the delegates
were swept off their feet. State after
state rose, like black pillows on the
face of the waters, and cheered and
waved remnants and sank to equilibri-
UNI only to ruffle up again and cheer
with the crowd. No state was able to
keep its mooring. And in the tumult
and the shouting there were no re-
dictionaries. New York was as bois-
ferrous as Wisconsin, and Kansas
Joined Pennsylvania.
Roosevelt, Roosevelt, four years
more" they roared, and the cry
SKINNED over the waves of applause
like a gull, and like gull it was evan
scent. 1t signified nothing. And then
slowly, when the deep answered deep,
the calm came and the speaker went
on with his speaking.
1t was all SO simply and so natur-
ally done, all SO evidently sincere,
without claque or Encouragement,
that there was in it's undercurrent an
element of sadness. For it seemed a
good-by rather than a bait to Theo-
dore Roosevelt, and those who have
feared him feared him no more, and
those who have trusted him were hap
Ply. but rather sad than joyful.
Once the big shoY-the presidential
nomination-was over, the Remainder
of the work of the convention, the Sc
lection of a running mate for Secre-
tary Taft, was completed in short
order on Friday morning when Hon.
James 8. Sherman of New York was
named for second place on the ticket.
