public since 1906. He and his wife
are of simple tastes and habits Of
living and frequently have displayed

Nerne as a lawyer, and in 1880 be-
came undersecretary of state. after
which he held office as minister of the
interior. minister Of justice, minister
Of education and prime minister. and

Cold Day In Church.

In vain the tenor pleaded that he
had caught a cold in his head, in con-
sequence Of an accident that had de-
layed the cold street car in which he
had ridden to church. The leader of
the choir insisted that he must sing
his usual solo. but relented SO far as
to give him simple hymn. and this
is the way he sang 1t:
The bordig light is breakig,
The darkdess disappears:
The suds of earth are wakiR
To peditedtial tears.
Each breeze that sweeps the ocead
Briggs tidigs frob afar,
OF datiods ID cobbotiod
Prepared for Ziod's war
The preacher gave out the text as
follows:
Add Jacob said to Rebekah his
bother. Behold. Esau by brother is a
hairy bad. add l alb a sbooth bad"

taxed. it was foudd to codsist bostly

New Women In the Orient,

In every Asiatic country you see
the new" woman conducting special
schools for girls and neighboring cen.
ters for women of comparatively ad-
vanced ages. These institutions are
designed to educate the present and
rising generations of women properly
to discharge their various duties.
Paradoxical as 1t may seem, the
most favorable and successful man
ner In which the oriental woman car
ries on her propaganda work is
through the channels of the newspa-
pers and even magazines In various
parts Of Asia. especially in China,
India and Japan. women conduct pub
locations to further the cause.
In Japan the Twentieth Century
Woman. a radical monthly magazine,
Is edited by a woman and many of her
contributors are women. China has
three fourishing publications edited
by and for women. In Hindustan IL
also magazine for women. It is
printed In English, and started some
two years ago. 1t has = large and
growing circulation. Travel nagS

Birth Of the rhe,tsr

The theeter is the creation of the
ancient Greeks. The drama, in the
true sense OF the word. was born in
Athens Immediately after the great
victory over the Persians, r. C. 500.
4S0. The famous Dionysiac theater at
Athens was completed about B. C. $40.
Rome was never much on the theater.
In Rome there was far too much real
tragedy every day. SO that the people
had no occasion to mimic It on the
stage. 1t was as late as B. c. 154 when
the first permanent playhouse was
erected In Rome by Cassius. Even a.
late as B. c. 55 Pompey had all he
could do to make the theater popular
In the Eternal city.

Jaques Loeb will soon leave the Uni
versity of California for the east,
where he will devote his entire time
to research work at the Rockefeller
Institute for Medical Research.
Prof Loeb. who Is a native of Ger

In 1902 while professor at the Uni

In that manner.
He also proved that hearts of ami
mails could be made to throb exactly
as they do in life by being placed in a
solution of common salt, and that the
addition of other chemicals stopped
the organs beating.
In speaking of the ambitions which
have kept him constantly at work in
his laboratories, Prof. Loeb has
said:
Il very early came to the belief
that the forces which rule the realm
Of living things are not other than
those We know in the inanimate world.
Everything pointed that way. Gal
vani. watching a frogs muscle con-
tract, discovered what we call gal
vanic or voltaic electricity. The con-

to handle 1t in my laboratory as
would any other chemical reaction; to
start 1t, stop it, vary it. study it un.

At the Rockefeller institute Prof.
Loeb can devote his entire time to his
experiments. untroubled by the duties
OF instruction and administration
which must be performed by uni

fessor of physiology at the University
of California since 1902. when he left

REASON FOR PETERS TEARS
Wire From Bale of Hay Caught In
Mouth of Hippopotamus Caused
Big Animal to Weep.

Peter cried steadily for nearly
week, and the keepers at the Bronx
ZOO in New York could not imagine
what was the matter with him Peter
could not tell them, because ha had
never learned to speak English, and
he was only a hippopOtamus, anyway.
He just stood in his big cage and let
the tears run down his cheeks He
would not eat and all he would do
was open his mouth so wide that YOU
might have showed bale of hay into
it. 1t was bale of hay that had
caused all the trouble When, at last,
the keepers looked down into the back
of Peters great red mouth they saw
that an iron wire that had been used
for baling hay had been jabbed into

TEACHES ART OF SWIMMING
Apparatus invented by California
Man Makes Children Proficient
Without Aid of Water.

An apparatus to teach swimming
without water has been invented by
California man. The principle lies in
the fact that it will teach the proper
stroke because no other is possible,
and when this movement has become
habit the pupil will strike out in the
correct way as soon as he or she
hits the water. The novice lies on a
padded support, which extends to her
knees. She grasps pair of pulleys
above her head, and attached to
these pulleys are cables. The cable
in her right hand is fastened to her
left ankle and that in her left hand
to her right ankle.
When the learners hands are
brought down to her sides in the arm
stroke her legs are made to kick
