Children.

Listen to this opinion from David
Starr Jordan:
There is nothing in all the world
so important as children, nothing so
interesting. If you EVER wish to go in
for some philanthropy, if you ever
wish to be Of any real use in the
world, do something for children. II
you ever yearn to be truly wise, study
children. We can dress the sore,
bandage the wounded, imprison the
criminal, heal the sick and bury the
dead, but there is always a chance
that we can save a child. If the great
army of ph%ilanthropists ever exter-
inmate sin and pestilence, v e. work
out our races salvation, it will be be-
cause a little child has led them

"Broadbent's History of Pantomime"
describes a piece called "Nerone In

Meanings Of the Word "Stove."

The word ''stove" as applied to a
heater for room seems to be Of
about the same age as the article to
which the name is now applied, for,
while the word as name had an ex-
istence in early English. it was used
in different sense Both Lord Ba-
con and Woodward used it as refer
ring to house or room artifcially
warmed and particularly dollhouse
for plants. Bacon also used the word
as a verb in the way Of keeping warm
in house or room, as Ito stove orange
trees and myrtles." to quote from his
writings. Pepys used the verb in a
nautical sense. as heating for the pur-
pose OF making pliable. as .stove bolt
ropes" But all these definitions are
obsolete now. such disuse dating from
the time when Dr. Franklin made
his discoveries and applications. The
French word '.etuve." it may be add
ed. describes dollhouse or bathing
room and hence is parallel in mean
ing with the early English word.
