reunion parade at Philadelphia, shown
among the Howe moving pictures 0t
the Detroit opera house this week.
The picture Is timely as a foretaste
OF what Detroiters will have an OPP

Detroiters can be discerned as they
salute the mayor OF the city directly
In 'front.' of the camera.
The fun gives "A panoramic view OF
the parade, the camera being placed
IN third story window OF the Phil

reviewing stand In which the mayor
and other civic and Elks' officials are
stationed. Nearly 100000 people are
shown in this one feature.
The other pictures are fully up &c
the Howe standard, which means 'le
pest views from all parts of the world.
The most striking scene besides the
Elks' pictures Is an attack on and
defense of Whale island including the
landing of the invading party. the
Bleaching OF a heavy gun. and the re-
/ pulse OF the invaders by an armored
motor with maxim field gun.
The travel pictures give views OF
everyday life in Turkey, Tunis, India,
Marseilles and Ireland. The Irish pic
lures give an intimate view OF the
life OF the people, with characteristic

Diamonds to LampbIaek.

You may purchase equal quantities
of carbon for 5 cents OF a million dol
lars. A bargain hunter might invest
a nickel and get a package of pure
1ampblack. The million would ecure a
blazing diamond, easily turned into
lampblack; not so easily-intense heat
would be required. However, coal
and wood are really more valuable
than diamonds. They surrender life
giving heat, while the only use so far
discovered for diamonds is to cut
glass, and for this carborundum is a
good substitute. All diamonds in ex-
istence could be annihilated without
loss to mankind; but, then, to yapor-
iZe diamonds would be costly, as the
enormous heat of 1862 degrees +.

nace would be required, and then you
might get enough graphite to make a
lead pencil or a little fine stove polish.

Mystery of the EGG.

An egg for one thing is a succession
of bags, bagged up in n another, a
series of envelopes enveloped in one
another, bags and envelopes without
joints, seams or openings. Puzzles,
ships built up and full rugged in bot
ties, flies in amber, are simply simple
ity itself as puzzles when it comes to
how these bags wrap Il another up,
bag in bag. In a hens egg there are
eight or nine or ten of the sacks in
sacks ensacked. Everybody thinks he
knows what an egg is, and after weary
reading and study in many languages
he only begins to learn that nobody
knows a tiny fraction of all the world
of secrets and mysteries hidden in an
egg. Gas full Of meat as an egg is
not the true comparison, but las full
of mystery as an egg" is nearer the
truth. Eggs are the greatest puzzle in
all nations.-New York Press.

Consolation.

A little girl of thirteen or so found
herself one day possessed of a new
emotional desire to be pretty. She
struggled with it, but finally went to
tho long mirror in the hall and for the
first time in her life looked at herself
critically from head to foot. She saw
what most girls see at thirteen-a
lanky creature, mostly legs and arms,
hands and feet. 1t hurt her, and she
went out of doors to think 1t over.
Thought resulted In tears. and In tears
she was found half an hour later by
her particular chum, a boy near her
W age. Anxious inquiry as to why
she was crying induced her to speak.
"Oh, Harold" she walled, 1--WE just

The boy was puzzled, but sympa-
thetic, and made an effort at consola-

ingly:

"Eatinq Crow

The term 'eating crow" comes from
an ante-Revolutionary story. A soldier
of an English regiment stationed in
Virginia shot a pet crow belonging to a
farmer. The latter entered a com
plant with the colonel, who sentenced
the soldier to eat the crow. The farm
er was left alone with the soldier to
see that he did 1t. After the soldier
had consumed a portion of the bird
he took his gun, presented 1t 1t the
farmer and told him to eat the re-
mainder of the row or he would shoot
him. This was the origin Of the eat
lug crow story.

Tearins a Proverb to Tatters.

One of our correspondents, to whom
so far as we can remember we never
did any injury, sends us the following:
Carlyle said that genius is an in
finite capacity for taking pains. We
venture to think this definition appro-
pirate to a clerk.
But in a doctor genius is an inf
mite capacity for shaking pains.
In a commercial traveller, for taking
trains.
In a literary man, for raking brains.
In a sanitary engineer, for making
drains.
And in a Don Juan, forsaking
James.

proverb was at once briefer and more
obvious. Genius" he said, sis an in

There is a glazing phase of unfair
ness in the position of the two sexes,
despite all our struggles for the suf-
frage. A woman still breads to tell
her age, no matter how youthful she
may look, while as long as a man
looks youthful he is generally willing
to admit and even to boast Of how
many milestones he has passed. There
is at least one father who understood
this problem in time and who gave
his daughter a fair chance in life by
lever letting her know how old she
was. He realized at her birth that a
time would come when she would not
want to tell her age, and he spared her
the humiliation of having to prevari-
cate, so she was never told either her
age or the place where she was born,
and there were no birth records pre-
served IN the family.-New York
