Tells OF VATICAN
Magnificent Structures in Rome
Covered With Vines.
Palace Lies Apart and Distinct From
Rest Of Rome, Not Removed
by Isolation, but Through
-.@g., Its Atmosphere. ...

Rome, Italy.-Columns have been
written regarding the personal ap-
pearance of the pope, his part in the
ceremony Of the consistory and the
pomp and splendor that surrounds the
papal court, yet relatively little is
known Of his intimate personality.
This, in part, may be explained by
reason of the ceremony that sur
rounds the pontiff and by reason of
the care that has been taken to guard
him from the approach Of ill-inten-
toned plebeians. -
The Vatican itself is a magnificent
old pile whose spires, roofs and gables
rise high above an encircling grove
Of ancient trees that decorate it's gar
dens. The quiet serenity of the vine.
covered masonry, the peaceful majes~
ty lent by the hand of ages and the
atmosphere that seems to surround
the hallowed spot through it's long
association with the ecclesiastical his
tory, make it's imposing architecture
the most prominent in Rome.
This feature is all the more accen-
tuated after visit to the ancient Ro-
man amphitheater and the great aque-
ducts and mausoleums Of the Roman
emperors. These, in truth, are i'm
posing, but they contrast sharply with
the buildings that house the pope and
form the font Of the Roman Catholic
church. The Roman buildings are in
animate and magnificent in their
death; while the Vatican is animate
and doubly imposing through the soul
that lives within.
The Vatican. indeed, lies apart and
distinct from the rest of the city. 1t
is not removed through its isolation,
but through its atmosphere. On the
one hand is the magnificent palace of
King Victor Emmanuel, busy with
the toll Of war and feeding the count
less avenues that lead to the Ghetto,
and, on the other is the palace of the
pope, vast, silent and imposing, set
in an atmosphere of it's own and as
much apart from the busy city as
though it were surrounded by q des-

MANICURES FOR ANIMALS
Departments to Care for Nails and
Bills Started at Zoo in
Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, Pa-So as to keep the
nails of the animals from the lion to
the monkey and the bills of the birds
from the eagle to the canary in good
shape, well-equipped manicuring and
dental establishment is maintained at
the geological gardens. The depart
ment is under the supervision of Head
Keeper Marley, and it moves it's
sphere of work from cage to cage in
the various houses, as the occasion de-
mands. It is constantly at work.
The tools employed by the mani
curists in connection with their labor
among the creatures differ materially
from the dainty utensils used by the
blonde Venus Of the barber shop, and
consist of hammer, chisel, often a
Ratchet and saw, and always large,
rugged file about IA inches long. A
sharp, strong pair of steel wire nip
pers is also used on the nails of the
larger cats
The manicuring establishment at the
gardens was organized by Superin-
tendent Carson. Realizing that the
animals could not wear off their nails
on the boards of the cages as quickly
as they could on the rocks of their ma
tive haunts, and that because Of this
the claws frequently grew long, turned
and penetrated the soft part of the
foot, Mr.. Carson decided that in order
to alleviate the distress caused by in
growing nails these would have 70 be
clipped ."...

bitten and died as a result about one
year ago. Mrs. Gray was bitten on
the same finger of the same hand.

new COMPENSATION
LAW Is PRAISED
Makes Employers More Careful
for Safety of Employees,
Says Insurance Man

That the new workmen's compensa-
ticn law is making employers more
careful for the safety of their en-
ployes, and that IL is leading to a
more accurate insurance practice,
were statements made by David Van
Setback, director Of the bureau OF
inspection and accident prevention OF
the Aetna Life Insurance company, OF
Hartford, before the Employers asso-
citation. Monday night.
Mr.. Van Setback said:
1T will be GENERALLY admitted,
think, that the direct cost OF acci
dents will be greater under work
mems compensation laws than II has
been under liability laws. The indi
rect cost OF accidents, on the otheJ
hard, should be materially reduced
for when every accident causing 9
lose to the company must be compen
stated, regardless Of so-called negli
gence on the part OF either employer
or employed, there Is greater incen
tive to the employer to adopt every
known means OF accident prevention
and to seek ways Of increasing the
number and widening the scope oi
such measures.
Insurance will be placed on really
scientific basis. The company which
represent is already rating risks on
the merit system, and will take w
the various lines of industry as rapid
ly as possible and offer workmen' q
compensation insurance at rates
which are based on the probability OF
accidents occurring In individual
plants. It's past experience has shown
what causes are likely to result in
accidents, and II sends its inspectors
into a plant to- see whether these
causes are in existence there and
what measures are being taken tc
prevent accidents from them"
Mr.. Van Setback recommends
that workmen' be asked TO serve on
safety committees that may examine
the plant once a week or once o
month, looking for dangerous places
and suggesting means for guarding
them. Other means were also dis
ccssed for the education OF the work
crs in the subject Of safety. The ad
dress was illustrated by stereopticon
slides.

WOULD GIVE HALLIDAY
TEACHERS MORE WORK

Charles L. Chadsey. superintendent
Of schools. appeared before the com
mittee OF the Board OF Education on
teachers and schools. Monday after
noon. and suggested that a change be
made In the method of operating the
halliday classes. Of which there are
now ITO. At the present time the teach
srs In charge OF the halliday sessions
are paid for q full day. getting the
|Sime salary given teachers on an
edual footing In full-day classes. Mr.
Chadsey suggests that the halliday
teachers be obliged TO teach a full day,
with extra pay of $50 a month, max
|fng their salary 500. He recon-
msnds the additional pay because of
the fact that the present halliday ses-
|pfons are rs minutes longer than a
naxdlar halliday session. He figures
that the change would save $500 a
month as the board would be paying
B6 teachers 500 a month, instead OF
Ito teachers at $50 a month. Mr..

Verses 90. 21.-Intense zeal e.
Jesus was now at the height of his
popularity. His preaching tour through
the towns and villages of sGalilee had
been remarkably successful. Wher-
ever he went he saw physical distress
and spiritual anxiety, so that his COM
passionate heart was stirred. The Sc
lection of the twelve apostles was nm
other important event. Not long after
this serious business Jesus returned to
Capernaum and went directly to 81
mons house. The news of his return
was speedily circulated. THE multi

Verses 22-3O-Moral Inconsistency
The brief period which Jesus had
spent in Jerusalem at the beginning of
his ministry had given the rulers much
occasion for offense- They were de
tern,ined to get rid of him in some
way. His work in Gaiflee reused the
suspicious of these leaders, and they
sent down some Of their representa-
tives from Jerusalem to watch Jesus
and see what charges might be pre-
ferred against him. But the

EVERYBODY SHOULD BUY At
HOMEsFOR TOWN TO PROSPER
Helpful Principles of Reciprocity ig-
nered by Many Tradesrnsn-Argu-
ment Worth Considering.

AM earnest plea for reciprocity in
trade is made in. an editorial article
printed in the Agricultural Southwest.
The points made are well worth the
attention Of the men deficient in pub
lie spirit who spend their money away
from home without taking the trouble
TO ascertain whether or not the local
merchants can serve them as well as
those of the outside cities. The ar
ticle reads:
"Grocers in small towns expect that
the good farmers of the. community
shall trade at home rather than at
the catalogue houses in the large far
away city. The farmers too, think
that it is hardly right for the mer-
chants to send TO some commission
house in a large city for their supply
of potatoes
Both are-right Yet we find farm
ers buying from mail order houses and
merchants often buying from distant
places products of the farm that might
better be bought at home. Not alone
this, but how many engaged in the gro
Gerry trade overlook the Importance of
buying furniture. clothing, jewelry and
other things from their brother mer-
chants ut home? How many IN the
furniture and hardware business buy
groceries from some distant house
How many OF them buy their clothing
from other than, home stores2
AT an implement dealers'--oarVen-
ton in one of the western states the
catalogue house competition was being
considered. One of the. delegates was
strong in condemnation of those who
bought implements from the mail or
der houses He happened to throw his
fur lined overcoat over the back Of a
chair, and plain TO be seen was the
label of one of the noted catalogue
houses of Chicago. Still he had the
audacity to appear in state conven-
ton and criticise the farmers who
bought farm implements from the same
concern from which he had purchased
his overcoat instead of buying it from
his home store. Thus we find the help
full principles Of reciprocity ignored by
many inconsistent tradesmen.''
