Building Up MceilI University.

McGilI university in Montreal has recently been given by Sir William C. Mcdonald tract of 30 acres of what is described as perhaps the most valu- able land in the city This tract, which is now valued at well over $1,O00, ,00O, is intended to be used as a college campus, with dormitofies to be event ually built along it's sides The total of Sir William McDonald's gifts to McGill is now between $5,000,000 and $6.000,000. McGill has hitherto been especially well equipped for turning out lawyers and engineers, but a new era is evidently now opening out be- fore it in which it will be enabled by broadening its teaching in the human ities to become a strong and we'll rounded university in all branches-in fact, one of the notable educational in- stitutions of North America

THEIR APPETITEs WITH THEM
2H Pounds of Meat and 12 Quarts of Strong Drink Per Capita
 Is French Record.

Frenchmen are pretty able trencher- men, but the following account of meal made by eight Norman peasants surpasses expectations. According to the Medical Journal, a grazier with seven of his. friends undertook an ex- petition to gather fagots.
 Among them they should have man. aged some 400 fagots, but S7 repre- sented the sum of their work, the small total being accounted for, pos sibly by the luncheon which the octet devoured. They managed to consume 20 pounds of meat, 8 quarts of pure perry, 16 bottles of assorted wines, g bottles of champagne and quarts of cider. brandy of an alcoholic strength of 65 per cent. A roast goose, placed thoughtfully among the rations, was not required.
 This luncheon represents an aver age of 21s pounds of meat and 12 quarts of milk, none of it weak, per capita during the 12 hours occupied by the expedition.

Color of the Eve.

Brown eyes are due to brown pig ment laid down in the iris; blue eyes are due to lack of such pigment When both parents are brown-eyed the children get the tendency to form iris pigment from both sides of the house. and the condition of the pig ment is said to be duplex If the chiI- dren get the tendency from one par ent only, they will have brown eyes, but the condition is said to be sim plex Two parents lacking brown in tAe iris (blue eyed). will never have children with brown eyes, but only with blue eyes. If both parents have brown eyes simplex, then one in four of the children will have blue eyes, If one parent has simplex brown eyes and the other has blue eyes, one-half of the children will have blue eyes But if in both or either one of the parents the blue iris Augmentation is duplex. all of the offspring will have brown eyes.

Marks Old Station.

A monument has just been dedicated upon the spot where stood the cotton wood tree which gave the name. of Lone Tree station, on the old California and Mormon trails, on the north bank of the Platte river, two and one-half miles from the present site of Central City. Lone Tree was an important station in the early days, when the goldseekers crossed the continent. The large cottonwood was landmark at that period. The town of Lone Tree, afterward changing its name to Cen tral City, sprang up there.

Japanese Pastime.

Combats between animals of differ ent species are a source of great amusement among the Japanese. One of the most popular contests is that between monkey and goose. The monkey. is tied to one of the goose's legs, by means of cord, and both animals are set down near the bank of river, or pond. The goose, stand ing in dread of the monkey, seeks for safety in the water, and the monkey, afraid of the water, exerts himself to the uttermost not to be drawn into it. As rule, the goose draws the monkey into the water, and then the cunning simian sits astride of the goose, in equestrian fashion. The goose then tries to dive, and the monkey pre- vents her if he can; and so the fight goes on until the spectators tire, and the animals are released from an un- congenial companionship.

HOW PAPER CAME TO BE
A Wasp in Garden Was Inspiration to Nipponese Who Could Grasp
 Opportunity.

Long years ago a Japanese walked through his pretty garden to his home; his hands were clasped behind his back and he was thinking as he cross ed the bridge to pluck a fresh wiste- ria blossom that hung just over his head. This little gentleman had a great many parcels to send out from his shop every week, and he had all ways wrapped them in silk; but this was expensive material and he need ed something cheaper for his purpose. All at once wasp came fitting to- ward him, but he thrust it away that it might not nip his nose, and To! there at his hand was a wasp's nest! It was made of thin wood pulp, soft ened into thin paste by the jaws of the insect, then formed and left to dry.
 ''Why can't I do that same thing?' thought the Japanese merchant. Get certain wood, form it into a pulp by means of water from the river and make something like this wasps nest in consistency to wrap about my pack ages" So this was the way paper was first discovered: A wasp flew across the path of a man whoswalked one day in vine-clad garden of old Japan Rams Horn.

Eoxv Student

~k
 Robert Underwood Johnson, the poet and editor. declared at the University of New York's commencement that New York as literary center was ri- diculous-that nowhere in this coun- try was poetry more appreciated than in Boston. and nowhere less than in New York. 'In fact" said Mr. John son afterward, New York's love of poetry is about equal to the Earlham college boys love of languages. In my sophomore year at Earlham this lad was visited by his mother. Well, my dear she said to him, what. Ian guages have you decided to take up here% I have decided to take up Pictish,' he replied. 'Pictish?' said his puzzled mother. Why Pictish?' Only five words of it remain he said.

SPEAR GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM
One Experience With White Mans Weapon Was Enough for
 African Native.

When MT. Montague, the English traveller, was in Africa, he gave to native an old single-barreled gun, and the fellow was delighted. He put in l small handful of powder, and about 2 quarter of a newspaper on top of t, and finally ball, and then rammed he whole charge down. Then he de- parted. In the evening he returned, with his face battered and swollen al most beyond recognition. What have you been doing?" asked the English man, in amazement The native sat Town on the ground and said, sorrow fully: "A little after noon I found the rack of elands, and I followed it un- il I found them feeding. I crept up
 o one of them. He was twenty yards away. I rested the barrel of the gun on a stone, placed the butt against my nose, directed the muzzle .oward the eland, and pulled the trig- ger. I do not know what happened, ,or I was blind and deaf for some
 lime, but when I came to found my self lying at the bottom of the gully. The gun was beside me, my face was IS you now see it, and the elands had gone away. Son of a white man, it was very kind of you to give me a gun, but it is too good a gun for me too strong, too powerful. It needs the wisdom of white man to rule it. Take it back. Farewell!"

HAVE GOOD IDEA OF DRESS
Many Men Possess the Artistic Eye When 1t Comes to Matter of Fenl-
 mine Drapery.

There is an old tradition to the ef- as artistic eye in the selection of a becomingly gowned woman. A man notoriously at sea in the matter of feminine frocks was asked to design what to his mind was a graceful dress for the Identification of the woman ly figure. The result not only vindi- cated men of the charge of ignorance concerning the becoming feminine drapery, but established for him q wisdom and artistry in designing that many devotees of the latest sartoriai spasm, be it modestly pretty or dar- ingly ridiculous, will do well to cul- tivate. ..
 The fabric of the gown evolved by the mere man was a soft clinging crepe de chine Of shadowy blue tone It was cut in kimono fashion, with loose-hanging Oriental sleeves. The neck was slightly rounded out to show the smooth, white column of the throat, and the gown hung free from the shoulders, falling in long, sweep ing lines, with just suspicion of a sweep at the back. In front an elon- gated buckle of the blue material, em- broidered with dull gold threads, held a wide girdle, which was wound around the waist empire fashion, tied in an odd knot, with short upstanding loops in the back, from whence long, loose ends, finished with gold and blue, fell to the bottom of the skirt The sash gave a slightly empire effect, and the whole gown appeared to swathe the figure in folds of pastel blue. Such a gown must in the very nature of it. self, conceal any offending angular lines, just as it would of necessity heighten the symmetry of the softly curving ones. Grace of carriage and elegance of attire were it's indubitable followers, so much so that one won ders why. the distress and fatigue of countless hours at the dressmaker's are endured, when art is so very sim pie. a.

ARE AS UNFRAMED AS EVER
French Students Have Not Changed in Spirit, Though Less Pictur-
 esque Than Formerly.

One might almost say that there is one unchangeable feature of Paris and that is it's students. It is true the esque as in the days of Henri Munger, but undoubtedly their spirits are the same-they are still as untamed and riotous. The disturbances that have taken place recently have arisen sim ply because the students for the bac- calaureate on the classical side discov. cred that the paper In Latin set them was intensely difficult, while the pa- per in Latin set before their rivals on the modern languages side was very easy. Hence shoutings, parading of the streets, demonstrations, stone throwing and window breaking, "con- squeezing" snd all the other various manifestations of the turbulent and dissatisfied student.
 The class rooms have been held by policemen and the students have had several times to be summarily elected, although on more than one occasion they burst open the doors and forced their way in again. The most comical feature Of the whole business was to see and hear large procession of demonstrating students singing along the boulevards in a monotorous drone the very passage from Cicero which had brought about their downfall, while their modern languages col leagues sailed easily into port on a passage from Julius Caesar.

MIGHT NEED THE CLUB LATER

It hAe to 10 with an American golfer going over I Scotch links, attended by one of hose hoary caddies who only begin to flourish after they are past the seventieth milestone. This caddie had separate name, not only for each hole, but for every tee hazard and bunker And for each name he had some philosophical reason.
 How far is it over to that bun kerr" asked the American, preparing for a long drive.
 'Aboot twa hun'red an feefty yard, sir,' from the caddie. Am the bun ker's name is hell For once ye're in. sir, yell ne'er get oot."
 Followed the drive, which brought the ball right where it wasn't want ed, and the caddie i'll concealed his merriment Nothing daunted, the visitor selected his niblick and by a fortunate loft freed himself from an unfortunate situation, landing easily on the green.
 How about that bad place of yours now?" he demanded of his ancient ceddie, not without bit of exulta- tion
 "Weel, sir" replied the man, "Pd advise ye to talk this club wi ye when ye coon to dee. Ye maun need it."

The Lesson.

!. Odd how you can pick up lesson in something, no matter which way you turn, or which corner you happen to round on, says the New York Press. The other day a man who was talk ing his matutinal iaunt to the Eighty first street station of the elevated found himself watching with sym pathetic interest chunky bull pup trotting valiantly down the street with dog biscuit held between his teeth. The pups owner, walking slow ly in his wake, met his occasional backward glance with an adamantine stare. Pup was being disciplined and was showing his thoroughbredness nobly. Incidentally he was teaching everybody on the block a lesson in self-control.

Names for Good Friday.r

Perhaps no Christian festival has so many names as Good Friday. Our Anglo-Saxon and Danish forefathers called it Long Friday" in allusion to the length of the days services and fasting; in france it is Holy Friday" in Germany either "Stiller Freitag" Quiet Friday) or "Charfreitag," in al fusion perhaps to the exhibition of the crucifix for adoration after being yelled all through Lent. In the Greek church it has been known at various times as "The Pascha of the Cross" "The Preparation, "The Redemption" and "The Day of the Cross," and to these names the Latins have added "The Day of the Lords Passion" "The Sixth Holy Day of the Pascha," and many others. Good Friday seems to be peculiar to the English Ian guage.

When the elder brother of the Prod igal Son came near his fathers house he heard, according to the Authorized Version, music and dancing" Dr. Rendel Harris, in address at West minister college, Cambridge, says that the word for music in the original is symphony" and that symphony means the bagpipes. Wycliffe'sN yer sion gives the word symphony, but no other translator has done so. Wy cliffe also says that he heard sym phony and crowd" Now, crowd is the Welsh crwth or harp. In view of the two instruments, Dr.. Harris says thatthe elder brother had some justification for getting angry Chris tian World.

French Lawyers Went on Strike.

Over 300 years ago one of the most unusual strikes ever recorded took place in Paris, when all the lawyers walked out, so to speak. A law or ordonnance was issued and promul- gated by the French king, Henry H., ordering all lawyers to sign their pleadings and to state the amount they were charging their clients for their services. This, was done so that the lawyers could be properly and sufficiently taxed on their income. The lawyers objected, and the strike, caus- ing an entire stay of judicial proceed ings, followed Peace was restored by the non-enforcement of the ordon- nance. though it was not repealed.

Lesson and Church News II

see clearly to cast out the mote that
is in thy brothers eye. For there is
no good tree that bringeth forth cor
rupt fruit; nor again a corrupt tree
that bringeth forth good fruit. For
each tree is known by it's fruit. For
of thorns men do not gather figs, nor
of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
The good man out of the good treasure
of his heart bringeth forth that wh1cn
is good; and the evil man out OF the
evil treasure bringeth forth that when
is evil; for out of the abundance Oh
the heart his mouth speaketh.
And why call yet me, Lord, LORD,
and do not the things which 1 say!
TIC, Building That Lasts.
This rigorous insistence upon genu-
ineness is unique with Jesus He made
clear that it was not mems opinion
that counted, but the omniscient knowl-
edge of the Father who seeth in secret.
H. would have all the character and
conduct of his friends brought to the
test of His own perfect life. The dar-
ing and audacity of the Christian
standard has been hooted as 'imprac-
teal" through all the centuries, and
yet it has gone on producing an in
creasing company of holy men and
women.
Upon this foundation of fidelity, the
doing of the word rather than the pro-
Tossing of allegiance, Christian char
acter is to be built as Jesus set forth
iii His parable of the house that was
founded upon bedrock which no storms
could shake.
The highest achievement of the reli-
g:on of Jesus is the holy life of His
disciples. over the gateway to the
American Board mission at Ahmedna-
gar, in India, one may read the name
of Robert Hume, Maker and Member
of Men and Boys, in the Name of
Christ Jesus That is it. Christ is
making over the world by making over
individual men. This is a time for a
word of caution, lest we who are de-
voted to social service lose our discre-
ton in the glamour of glittering gener-
alities. The foremost living apostle of
the gospel of socialized Christianity,
Prof. Walter Rauschenbusch, said TO
me recently, Il think that we who have
stood for the social gospel will have 10
meet the tendency of extremes by in
sisting upon mystic piety in the per-
sCnal life The new order of society,
which is Christianity's big task, is TO
be effected only by men and women
whose own characters have been made
over by the gospel of Jesus.

his faith structure thereupon. His
faith, therefore cannot fail whatever
storms may assail.
The unwise believer builds upon the
traditions of the elders, the creeds OF
the Dark Ages, etc. He fails to ap-
preciate the necessity of having a rro-

In the time of stress with which this
Age will end all such win find the
foundation swept away; they will
thereby suffer great loss, though they
themselves may be saved, as by fire
