Bible on Long Trip.

Chicago.-In the fall of 1900 Ma sons of Chicago started Bible on a long journey. It is to be kept for time in the possession of at least one lodge in every principal city of the country and ultimately returned to its starting point to be placed among the precious archives of the Chicago Masons.
 It is expected that 25 years will be required for the Bible to complete it's passage from lodge to lodge until all the blank pages provided for the rec ord of it's custodians shall have been filled. A lodge iE Columbus, O., sent a special train to Springfield in that state to convey the travelling Bible to a lodge there, where 1t was received with impressive ceremonies. Before reaching Columbus it had been in the possession of lodges in Cincinnati and Dayton

How eerman elrIs Learn.

How would an up-to-date American girl like the following hint from German critic now in this country? Why do not struggling country par sons with small salaries help them selves out by taking charge of city young women? In Germany 1t is the custom for girl to pass year be- tween school and society in the coun- try in the home of some clergyman who can oversee her reading. while his wife inducts her into all the mys- tery of the housewifely arts. The plan has many advantages. It Is more prac- tical than your course in domestic science, for the pupil actually takes a hand in all the work of the household from the laundering to sausage mak- ing.
 Free from the distractions of home or society, or even of the classroom, she can devote herself single minded to the business in hand. Her first timid experiments are ventured out of range of the jeers of brothers and sis ters and of the mothers unconscious assumption that she is still a little girl When she goes home 1t is in the full blush and dignity of housewifely completeness, a graduate into mature life.

FACES ARE ALTERED BY FOOD
Specialists Say That the Contours Are Changed From Plain to Pretty
 or Vice Versa.

You can, according to the opinion of an American expert. alter your children's features by varying their food.
 If your little daughter, for instance. has too heavy a face, too massive chin, and you are afraid that she will grow up unprepossessing. cease to give her foods with starch in them. and she will become dainty and graceful.
 Should she, on the other hand, be too slender of feature. with tiny chin. you can develop rounded curves by giving her more starch than she has been having.
 Man is what he eats" says this expert. and he then mentions such di- vergencies from the normal facial type as "starch chin," "onion, chin, ''tea drinkers teeth "full-lipped sugar mouth" and potato lip" These divergencies, he says. are caused by the articles of diet named.
 The food eaten makes an enormous difference in peoples appearance" a Bond street beauty doctor who has had several years hospital experience. said. "and though it cannot alter the framework of the adult face 1t can that of young children while their bones are still growing.
 The child who has too much starch develops puffy flesh all over the face, which then appears too massive.
 Such child should be given more nitrogenous food. such as meat and green vegetables containing the prop CT mineral salts for building uI strong. well-shaped bones. and much less starchy food. such as rice. pota toes or white bread.
 Such vegetables are spinach spring cabbage, turnip tops. celery ol carrots. By their action better mus cular tissues are built up over strong CT bones. and the result is alert dainty features.
 'Tf, however. the face is too thin more starch should be given. as wei as proteids and the vegetables have named. and then the rounded contoul so necessary to beauty will be bull up."

STATUES OF BUDDHA
Make Striking Religious Monu--
 ment in India.
Structure Supposed to Have Been Erected in the Ninth Century Is One of the Most Sacred
 Shrines.

Calcutta, India-Four enormous statues of Buddha, nearly 100 feet high, make one of the most striking religious monuments in India, if not in the world. The structure is one Of the most sacred shrines in India and it is supposed to have been erected in the Ninth century. Rangoon, Bur nah, Is also famous as having a huge statue of Buddha-
 To the eastern traveller the statue of Buddha is a familiar sight From Colombo in Ceylon, to Kobe, in Japan. he is everywhere greeted by the same calm, impassive and mysterious face of the eastern preceptor of perfection But in no city in the Orient do the form and face of Buddha constitute so frequent or so essential part of the city's decoration as in Rangoon, the starting place of MT Kipling g famous Road to Mandalay." the stronghold of Buddhists. Notable even among the countless statues of Ran goon is the mammoth Buddha, repre- senting the strange teacher, not stand ing or sitting cross-legged, as in the majority of statues, but reclining on a huge raised couch, his mighty form stretched out for 200 feet. while bis shoulders rival the width of that won der of the ancient world, the Colossus of Rhodes, their titanic breadth reach ing 50 feet.
 But one among the wonders of Ran goon, this mighty figure rests near the famous Shoay Dagon, the center of the Burmese Buddhist world, crowned by the golden pagoda, which rises 300 feet above it. its walls GOV cred with pure gold. the gift of a prince who contributed his weight in gold to the pagoda.

puzzIe for eerman PoIIce.

A curious obstacle has intervened to prevent the decapitation of man who was recently sentenced to death at Posen, Germany, for murder. The condemned man called himself Jacob Kinzle, and had the usual papers of Identification made out in this name. Under 1t he had served several terms of imprisonment for theft. and no one doubted that it was his own name till after he had been adjudged to lose his head. It then came to the knowl- edge of the police that the real Jacob Kinzle is at present farming in South Africa, where he is highly respected; 1; and that his papers were stolen from him some years ago. Under German law, however, nobody can be executed till his identity has been properly es tablished, and the authorities are com pletely at a loss as to the real name and percentage of their doomed cap tive. He, not unnaturally, steadily de clines to provide them with the in formation that will enable them tC proceed with the operation of cutting oil his head.

WHAT HIS EDUCATION COST
Jones Has Tried Various Things, In- eluding Matrlmony, and Has Not
 Yet Done Paying.

How much did it cost you to get your education?" asked Jones.
 Well" said Smith, let's see. My primary education was cheap-say, $500. My secondary training was about twice as much, while my college course amounted to something like a thousand year. or four thousand in all. Then I had three years at a technical school, at about the same rate-so, all in all. my education came to about $S,500, or 5000 at the outside. What do you figure yours cost?"
 ''Well;' replied Jones, rehectively. q guess mine was rather more ex- pensive. I went through college, but I didn't have any technical training. Up to that point we are about equal. Then l went west and got interested in a gold mine. That bit of knowledge cost considerable Next, tried stock raising, and found that a pretty ex- pensive school. Before I was finally graduated from that took hand at the theatrical business, and learned a lot at fairly high rates There was 2 little girl in the company, though seemed to think I hadn't got all the knowledge that was coming to me.

One of Sir Evelyn wood's Stories.

One of SIT EVeiyn WoOu ~S
 Some forty years ago at Aldershot the camp was commanded by Sir James Yorke Scarlett, Crimean vet eran. On the occasion in question he was directing some sham fighting. In a manner then usual he was leading a line of skirmishers of one force against another, many yards in front. as in earlier times he had led the Heavy Brigade at Balaclava against three times its numbers. To soldier of the younger school 1t seemed a pre- posterous proceeding. and Sir Evelyn ventured to criticise it.
 Sir James replied: "Young man have I not ordered you twice to hold vour tongue? If I like to lead my skirmishers, what the hell Is that to you?" Sir Evelyn replied: Ten thon sand pardons, sir. but it is the enc my's line in retreat you have been leading for the last ten minutes" He was short-sighted and did not weal classes. so was unable to see the dis tinguishing mark. sprig of heather worn in the shakos of the troops he was g.-Westminster Gazette

 President Diaz made many enemies as ne WGuI dlOu6- nC 6A d00oA (Ay talking of the sentiment against him was obvious to others but not to him. At first he laughed at the Madero ris- ing. and those who know him do not believe that anything less than the most tremendous pressure could have brought him to make the slightest con cession to his enemies.
 He was twice married. His first wife. the mother of his three chil- dren. died during the Maximilian em- pire. He married his second wife in 1883. She was Senorita Carmen Romero Rubio. the daughter of one of his old antagonists.
 Although the political campaign brought to light much dissatisfac- tion with his continued rule. the dis turbances which eliminated in the recent insurrection did not arise un- til after his opponents found them selves beaten at the polls. Francisco I. Madero, member of one of Mexico's wealthiest families, was candidate for the presidency against President Diaz, the principal plank of his platform be- ing anti-re-election-
 In November, 1910, General Madero was convicted of melting the people to rebellion and put in jail. He es- caped into Texas and called upon his followers to join in general revolt on November 20 Already there had been scattered disturbances through out the republic. but the insurrection took its first definite form on this date. The Maderists issued a mani festo in which they declared that the recent election had been enforced al the point of tho bayonet. charged President Diaz with responsibility for the uprising and declared his election null and void
