lead or iron.l This form ofs athletic
sport was at first only permitted to
freemen among the Greeks. but grad

and lost much Of its prestige.

Louis D. Brandeis. who recently told
the railroads of the country that he
could show them how to save $1,000
600 day, has been a laborer for the
public veal for sixteen years without
pay. Mr.. Brandeis' hobby is humani-
ty. Whenever he can lend his aid to
the solution of sociological or eco
nomic problem affecting the common
people he does-gratis. His warfare
for the poor started in 1894, when he
instituted proceedings against malad-
ministration of certain public charities
In Boston. He won after a long fight
Next he secured the passage of law
in Massachusetts, which in it's final re-
suit has reduced the cost of life in
surance to workingmen by fully 20
per cent throughout the entire coun-
try. There was no fee for this work.
Personally Mr. Brandeis is medium
sized, wiry man, with piercing gray
eyes and hair streaked with gray. He
was born in old Kentucky. but most
Of his life has been spent in Boston.
He is a partner in an old established
and prosperous law firm of that city.
He was married twenty years ago. and
he and Mrs Brandeis live on the same
modest scale as when they began
housekeeping.

Of thousands of stays. This annual

it. Some natives say that the animals
meet to decide matters affecting the

seems hard to account otherwise for
the attraction which brings stays and

Found the Saints Day.

One Russian peasant sued another to
recover the sum of so rubles. the debt
or having faithfully promised to re-
turn the money on st. Henry's day.
But, having failed to do so for long
time. the lender discovered that the
Russian Orthodox church includes no
such saint as st. Henry. and the judge
before whom the case was tried was
much puzzled as to what verdict he
should give. Happily the idea occur
red to him that, saint or no saint. ALI
Saints day included even the most
doubtful, so he gave judgment that the
so rubles should be returned next All

greatly insulted the ex-boss. who has
