PASTIME AND KNOWLEDGE

of the regular turbine wheel in the East, while
in the West the water is conveyed in pipes
sometimes only few inches in diameter. but
down so great a descent as to bring a ire
mendous pressure to the square inch. This.
thrown against that form of the turbine known
as the impulse wheel" sets it into extremely
rapid motion, which is Immediately applicable
to dynamo The slower moving turbine
used in the East needs considerable gearing
up to produce high speed,
San Francisco. since its late catastrophe,
has been getting power made two hundred
miles away Electricity is thus bringing the
falls of the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the
very doors of the manufacturing plants of the
coast
From Maine to Georgia. on the Atlantic
seaboard, the development of water power
is also advancing, though with less pictur-
sequences The Mississippi Valley, except in
its most northern States IS taking perhaps
the smallest part in this new movement. 1t
has plenty of cheap steam producing coal,
while the fall in its streams is comparatively
slight
The abandoned waterwhee1. with the moss
growing over its decaying wooden paddles,
has had place in many scenes of rural quiet
Equally prominent will soon be the modern
waterwheel in any picture representing the
stirring industrial life of this century.

COLLEGIATE DIFFERENCES

WHEN Arthur Twining Hadley of Yale
" replied to the toast to that university
at the recent Eli reunion in Philadelphia, he
made two interesting points. In the first place
and quite casually, he paid first hand respects
to Ambassador Tower of whom he naturally
saw much during his incumbency of the Roose-
welt professorship at Berlin last spring, by
saying that the much talked of man was one
of the three most influential figures in the
Fatherland to-day,-the Kaiser and Chancellor
Won Buow being the other two.
In the second place, he differentiated in at
least one respect between the German uni
versitv and the American. Il asked num-
Der of German university men, who had
travelled on this side of the water about this,
said he, land one answer quite cleared up the
matter. Over here our students live pretty
we'll together; there is, as it were, geographic
as well as an academic unity in their lives.
Now in German centers of learning, as the in
formant l have just referred to put it, the
students are dissipated over the whole town. ~

TO A WOULD-BE BYRON

You ask me how to write of love,
And wish me to advise you?
First, call Erato from above:
Maybe she'll recognize you.
Then let your thoughts dwell for time
Upon the wiles of Cupid;
Though don't forget the only rime
To this is merely stupid"
Merge "love" and dove" and kiss"
and bliss.
And talk about "caresses
You'll find you'd better link with this
The maiden's flowing "tresses
Her lovely charms you must compare
With some fair DANES, say Circe's.
Of classics you should have a share
In all your am rous verses
And if, perchance, the rimes won't come,
Like these we have before us,
You'll get good synonyms in some
Reliable thesaurus.
And when this effort you've got through,
Don't send it to a paper;
But twist it up-I often do
Into a smoking taper,
That's all know, or ever knew.
Now take my word and heed it,
Don't write of love, but if YOU do,
Don't ask me, please to read it
La T0nChe Hancock

SOME MORAL PHILOSOPHY

THE levels of literature are more numerous
than the heights 1t isn't the best policy
to print every scrap OF stuff that even a great
man writes
To feel strongly that you right, and to
act on that feeling, is better than to seek the
advice of philosopher. even if you make
mistake
A little poem that q yes one esthetic thrill
is more profitable than much fine writing
1t is hard work for some men to say, Good
morning" but there is man who does not
ieel better. and will not work better for that
universal salutation heartily given
The essence of poetry is beauty, and the
principal value of it is the refining influence it
has on mems lives.
Poetry that stimulates refined pleasure
must be considered good, though written in
homely dialect
Happy is that nation which loves peace and
knowledge well most nations love war
and rum.
Fear not the breath of SANDER. Not thing
in the world can injure you except the thing
you do. You cannot escape that whether any
body knows it or not
love of applause is the last nfirmity of a
noble mind, and it is the first infirntv of a
weak one.
Each day you think of an injury increases
the pain. Let the thing alone, and you may
live to know that what you regret was the best
thing that could have happened.
o L. Dickinson

REVIVING THE OLD WATERWHEEL

THE waterwheel seemed to be going out OF
fashion twenty-five years ago The steam
engine could be set up anywhere, and that
convenience more than offset the cost of coal
Now marked revival in the use of the water
wheel is observable everywhere. The invention
of devices for conveying electrical power con-
siderable distances from the waterfalls that run
the dynamos has made it possible for water
power to compete with steam successfully.
On the Atlantic coast the volume of the
streams is generally large, but their fall is
relatively short; on the Pacific the volume is
generally light, but its fall is enormous. This
difference IN conditions has dictated the use

COUNTING POSTAL CARDS

Of the many interesting machines employed
~ by the Government in its daily work,
there may be mentioned those used for count
ing and tying postal cards into small bundles
These machines are capable of counting five
hundred thousand cards in ten hours, and
wrapping and tying them in packages of
twenty-five each.
In this operation the paper is pulled off
drum by two long fingers, which emerge from
below. and another finger dips in vat OF
mucilage and applies itself to the wrapping
paper in precisely the right spot, Other parts
Of the machine Irvine the paper round the
pack of cards, and then thumb presses over
the spot wherein the mucilage has been ap-

pARAGONS OF FILIAL pIETY

ElLIAL piety, as is we'll known, is the special
virtue of China and Japan. From it springs
loyalty to the Emperor, who is regarded as
1.-The father and mother of his people," There
are no greater favorites with the Japanese
than the -Four and Twenty Paragons OF
Filial Piety," whose acts of virtue are the sub
iects of Chinese legend.
One of the Paragons had a cruel stepmother
who was very fond of fish. Never repining at
her cruel treatment of him, he lay down on the
frozen surface of lake. The warmth of his
body melted a hole in the ice, at which two
carp came up to breathe. These he caught
and took home to his stepmother.
Another Paragon, boy with a most sensi-
tive skin, insisted sleeping without any
covering at night; that the mosquitoes
should fasten on him. while his parents slum-
bered undisturbed.
Another Paragon, who was of the female
sex, chung to the jaws of a tiger that was
about to devour her father until the latter
escaped.
The drollest Of all these stories is that OF
Rorashi. This Paragon, though seventy years
old, used to dress in baby's clothes and crawl
about the floor. his object being to delude
his parents, who were really over ninety years
of age, into the idea that they could not be SO
very old after all, as they had such an exceed
ingly infantile son.

GREEDY

Thanksgiving Day they always let me have
two helps o pie:
But can't eat near all | want, no matter how
l try.
They pass the pudding. and they say, Now.
Sammy, do have some!
But l Just can't; there amt no room left IN
my tummy-tum
And when hang my stockings up, only hang
up two
On Christmas Eve, and that, you know, is
such little few!
But mother says it's greedy, hanging more than
l can wear,
And that l won't get anything if don't have
a care.
But when Thanksgiving comes, and Christmas
time begins,
Seems if I'd give most anything if had been
borned twins
