Stuart was about to commit the crowning
act OF folly in marrying Boutwell,, would

the latter wanted to espouse his sovereign

The Unemployed.
From the Boston Globe.

From the Boston GLOBE
Why are there so many unemployed per-
sons in various parts OF the world? Busi-
ness depression is of course. accountable
for the hardships many working people
undergo at intervals. But business de-
preston is not the cause OF the perma-
nent army of the unemployed which. in
London for instance, is never disbanded.
The royal commission which investi-
gated this and other problems espresso
the opinion that this army is recruited
from workers who, when boys. had to
leave school without learning a manual
trade and also without sufficient general
education. Such boys after leaving school
never learned regular trade. but took
whatever jobs were at hand. Conse-
quently, their occupation being intermit-
tent, a livelihood precarious in youth be-
came more SO in mature age.
If this guess of the royal commission is
true, then II follows that by educating
everybody either for mental or manual
labor the supply Of those capable of doing
skilled or regular tasks would be enor-
mously increased. But increasing tne
number of persons looking for job IL NOT
the same thing increasing the NUMBER
Of jobs. Therefore. ii would seem tnat the
suggestion of the royal commission, II car
ried out, would only serve to change the
character Of the army OF the unemploSeG

SUICIDE OF RATTLESNAKES.
Why Scorpion or Venomous Animal
Cannot Sting Itself to Death.
From the Cosmos.

The veroms OF serpentS, fishes. scor-
pions, centipedes. spiders, bees, etc, as
well as the blood OF the eel, owe their
virulence to the presence of toxins similar
to those which are secreted by bacteria.
In both cases the toxins are specific prod
ucts of the activity Of living cells. They
are very poisonous, non-cry stallizable col
loids Of unknown chemical constitution.
The venom toxins are very sensitive to
the action of heat and light, are easily
destroyed by digestive ferments and con-
seqUently are innocuOuS when swallowed.
There Is a great variety of these toxins
Snake poison alone contains half a dozen
distinct toxins. each of which exerts a
specific action on the nervous system, the
red or the white blood corpuscles, etc.
1t is possible to produce in any animal
an artificial condition of immunity to the
effects of any animal venom. This is ac-
complished by the repeated injection of
the venom in doses, each of which is too
small to cause death. After a larger or
smaller number of injections the animal
acquires the power to resist the action
of many times the quantity OF venom that
would suffice to cause death il it were in
iected into the veins of a non-immunized
animal. The blood OF the immunized ami
NAL now contains a new substance an
antitoXin which has the property Of neu-
Trailing the toxin of the venom, and

Citv Regulations.

Under act of August .. 1872 regulations
as TO pumps, wells, springs, hydrants ana
acuueducts were made. These provided
that when an application was made 10
the mayor by two-thirds of the residents
of any neighborhood for a pump, hydrant
or conveyance of water he should direct
the commissioner to cause the object or
the application to be executed; that the
cost be paid from the funds Of the ward
and one-half the cost be assessed on the
real estate benefited and that repairs be
paid for out of the ward funds.
In 1915 it was made unlawful to lnJure
any part of the works at the fountain
near 9th and + streets, Caffrey's spring.
wash clothes or commit any act tending
to injure the same. In 1915 the mayor
was directed to purchase two sites in the
second ward with springs for providing
good supply Of water. This act, how
ever, was not executed, for in the juno
ton of X and 18th streets on public
ground an abundant supply Of water was
discovered. And the population number
ing over 1900 in 1920 greater facilities
for getting water were demanded. larger
appropriations were made. new pumps
erected old ones repaired. MIGRANTS put
in and in that year reservoirs were con-
structed to supply water for the ex-
tinguishmen of fires.

INSTINCT AND REASON.
An Interesting Illustration Of the
Two Traits in Monkeys.
From ST. Nicholas.

From ST. Nicholas.
An illustration showing the differ
ence between instinct and reason In
monkeys came under the observation
of my friend David Starr Jordan, the
famous naturalist. DR.. Jordan likes
monkeys. and until an uncomfortable
household experience with an especial
ly clever and mischievous one. a few
years ago. has always had several of
these pets about his house. At one
time he had two lively Macacus
monkeys called Bob and Jocko These
were nut and fruiteating monkeys. and
instinctively knew just how to crack
nuts and peel fruits. At the same time
other kind a kind that had the egg
eating instinct. But Mono had never
yet seen an egg.
To each OF the three monkeys DR..
Jordan gave an egg. the first that any
of them had ever seen. Baby Mono
descended from egg-eating ancestors
handled his egg with all the Inherited
experiences Of a ong-developed instinc.
He cracked 1T with his upper teeth.
making a hole in 1t. and sucked out
she'll up to the light and seeing there
was no longer anything in it, he threw
it away. All this he did mechanically.
automatically. and just as well with
the nrst egg as with any other he
afterward had. And all eggs since
given him he has treated in the same
way.
The monkey Bob took his egg for
some kind Of nut. He broke it with
his teeth and tried to pull off the she'll.
When the inside ran out and fell on
the ground he looked at it for a mo-
ment in bewilderment. then with both
hands scooped up the yolk and .he
sand mixed with it and swallowed it.
Then he stuffed the shell into his
mouth. This act was not instinct, it
was reason. He was not familiar by
inherited instinct with eggs. He would
