LAUGH WAS ON THE GIANT
story Of Thor's Wonderful Sword and
the Big Fellow Who Thought
Himself Invulnerabie.

In the olden days, amid the glories
of the northland, there lived mighty
giant who was sure that he was in
vulnerable. So he walked up and
down the earth, grinnlng nightly,
talking much and glorying in his
strength Neither sword Of hero nor
spear of warrior could so much as
start the goose flesh on his leathern
hide.
And he waxed holder and holder in
his pride until he was heard one day
to shout: II am proof against every
thing! Thor himself has no spear
that can harm mel
Now when Thor heard of this boast
he bent his brows and swore in his
beard. Then he threw down his ham,
mer and called for his great sword
Balmung. the ancestor OF all swords
the sword with edge so fine that no
lightest hair could balance across II
without dropping In twain. And Thor
grasped Balmung and went forth In
search Of the giant.
When the giant saw him coming he
showed all his teeth in one terrific
grin and cried: "Ho! Here is where
We show them!' and barred his
swarthy bosom.
Then Thor strobe three strides for.
ward and with one swinging swish OF
Balmung he smote the giant fair
amidships.
But the giant. looking down, saw
only thin red line around his fat
stomach, and feeling no hurt, he cried
triumphantly, 20, Thor, have | not
said IL? | am invulnerable!"
Good" cried Thor. "But pray
shake myself"
Then the giant began to shake him.

ly he fell apart in two pieces, and that
laugh was called off forever!
So wondrous keen was Balmung, the

A0DESTY IS A MALE VIRTUE
With Women II 10 no Mere Than an
Artificial Protective Device,
Says Writer.

And In this same connection It is
time that we revised our ideas Of
feminine modesty. What q lot we
have written about 1t and how much
We have enthused over It! Some Of
US have even tried to find in 1t an in.
spiration. and women have listened to
our praises and our esctasies for all
these years and never once have they
diyulged the secret that they had not
the slightest idea what We were talk
ing about. They have known that we
were crediting them with some virtue
that they did not possess, but the only
way in which they could learn OF that
virtue was by an observation of our.
selves.
virtue, and II men do not get the
credit due to them It is only because
they have lost the power to blush.
What is called feminine modesty is
no more than an artificial protective
device. something that is assumed for
q purpose, like revolver. It has no
basis In consciousness. But male

gree Of latitude. He would be quite
shy about 1t If only men were present,
but women will do this in the pres
ence Of both sexes, and many of them
would go lower still but for the con-
veDtions.
Now q woman who had TO walk

would probably blush. She would say
that her modesty was offended. but
actually II is her sense of the appro-

IS MOST POPULAR OF BOOKS
Bible Holds This Proud Position
Partly on Account Of Its Pure
Literature.

The Bible is the most popular book
In the world on account of its pure
literature. Say what We will concern
Ing the advancement Of modern meth
DDS Of style and beauties of express
sion, l doubt If anyone will approach
some of the passages which can be
found In the Psalms, In the Prophets,
or In the Book of Revelation.
Considering the fact that these writ
ings have come to us through transla.
tons, 1t is astonishing what beauties
and power have been preserved. There
is no book quoted oftener that the
Bible. Passages have been woven en-
tire into our own literature. No writ
er of any prominence has ever been
able to escape borrowing from the
Bible. The reading of 1t has affected
the style Of writer's like Ruskin and
Browning and Milton. Gladstone re-
peatedly acknowledged his indebted
ness to the Bible for his phraseology.
Charles Fox said more than once that
he owed to the perusal OF the Bible
his vocabulary. The variety OF ex-
preston to be found on the part of
the different writer's is strangely com.
mingled with unity of expression due
In large part to the fact that all OF
these men are writing with at least
one great purpose In view. For we
have In the Bible a style which ia
more or less uniform from beginning
to end-even the style OF expression

Richard Seymour caught his breath
quickly and leaned forward In his seat
1t was only resemblance which had
startled him. he assured himself Dor
othy Blair would not be playing a
minor part in a second-rate company.
This tired, work-aged actress with
Dorothy's clear, beautiful eyes could
not be the charming young woman
who three years before had refused to
marry him.
He had gone abroad Immediately
after her refusal and bits of homo
gossip reached him at long intervals.
He heard that Dorothy. pursuing a
dream she had always cherished, had
gone on the stage. OF her success or
failure he had heard nothing. Tonight.
his first evening in his own land, he
had gone into this theater because It
was near his hotel.
The woman on the stage played her
Insignificant part with mediocrity OF
ability. Her work was not good and II
was not conspicuously bad. II was
commonplace, and the audience paid
little attention to her. On the bill her
name was Clemina Culpepper
Seymour's surprise at what he had
considered resemblance became APP
prehension, dread and at last an ach
ing horror. The actress was Dorothy
The hard, strained voice, the stiff
stereotyped movements. the lines and
shadows which showed beneath the
paint had belonged to the Dorothy he
had known. Only her eyes were un
changed, and by them he recognized

BubbIing Cup That Can Be Lifted.

The one great disadvantage Of the
ordinary bubbling cup sanitary foun-
tain lies in the fact that the drinkers,
whether they be men, women or chill
dren, tall, short, fat or thin, must
place their lips to the cup instead Of
placing the cup to the lips.
In an endeavor to remedy this dis
advantage. one sanitary drinking foun-
tain manufactures has designed a
bubbler which may be raised to the
height of the lips, so that the user may
stand in a perfectly easy and natural
position while drinking. This is made
possible by hose and cup arrange
ment, the hose consisting of double
tube. The inner tube Is the feed pipe
for the bubbler, and the outer tube
acts as a waste pipe, carrying away
the surplus water while the person is
drinking. The flow OF water through
the inner tube is continuous, no mat
ter what the position OF the cup. but
when the cup is lowered into its posi-
ton in the fountain basin. the water
flows over 1t and discharges into the
basin, instead Of being carried away
by the outer tube.--Popular Mechan-
