Gaelic Alphabet.

Men familiar with the Gaelic tongue

for ivy, furze and heather, are called

the letter h (the huath, or whitethorn)
does not exist. The alphabet Is called
the beth-luis-nuin, because b, |, n and

Peafowds' Winter Roosf,

The hereditary habit Of the peaoocks
OF roosting for the night in trees some
times forces upon them considerable
discomfort. After selecting a roosting
place the birds return to It each
night; apparently the anne ones with
out ever deserving the site. Usually
two in the same tree. Once during a
heavy snOwstorm DR.. Blair di-
rected my attention to two male pea
fowl that had selected a big oak tree
near his Office window as a perching
place. The snow had fallen during
the night to q depth of about 10
inches, forming a wall on each side of
the sleeping birds, which completely
arched over their backs. AS the heat
of their bodies melted the snow the
water gradually saturated their lighter
feathers and formed a tiny coronet OF
ice on their heads. AS we watched
them they stood erect as II to learn
Just what the prospect Of moving

WINGED them that an attempted flight
to the ground meant a tumble and not
q fly, for they promptly settled down

Draaon Not Chlna's Emblem.

AS shown In Its prompt reputation
by the republic of China, the dragon
was not the emblem of China; 1t was
the emblem of the late imperial fam
lily OF Manchus. This Oriental dragon
Is one of the powers Of the air, al
though wingless; one of the forces Of
nature which the Taolst religion has
defled. The dragon kings dwell part
ly in water and partly on land; their
shrines are for that reason erected on
river banks. The germ of the dragon
idea in the primitive races inheres in
some persistent memory Of the great
er lizards, such as the crocodile Of
the warmer waters. The Chinese
dragon being without wings ID accord
ingly closer to type than Is the winged
dragon of the mythology Of our
remote and northern race. As late
as the "HIstoria animalium" of Con-
rad Gesner (1564) science believed
that one had but to travel far enough,
say TO the more remote defles Of the
Alps, and he would surely encounter
dragons.

Mllan. Iona and Short.

Considering the size Of Switzerland
one might expect q mile to be about
as far as one could throw a ball, but
the hardy mountaineers think 9,153
yards the proper thing. even when. as
1t generally is, 1t is very much up hill.
The Swiss Is the longest mile OF all,
being followed by the Vienna post
mile OF 8,296 yards.
The Flemish mile Is $3.50 yards, the
Prusaian 1927 yards, and in Denmark
they walk 8.244 yards and call it a
stroll OF a mile. The Arabs generally
ride good horses and call 2,I43 yards
a mile. while the Turks are satisfied
with 1926 yards, and the Italians
shorten the distance OF a mile to 1856
yards, Just six yards more than the
American has in mind when the agent

Value of a Man.

The value of a man to the world Ia
not measured by the wealth he pos
sesses, or the business interests he
directs. The world is poorer for the
loss OF the men who went down with
the Titanic, not because a few OF
them were ~millionaires, or captains OF
industry, but because all Of them were
men. men with the heroism, the self.
devotion. to help others-not their
loved ones alone, but stTangers-to
safety, and then step calmly back to
wait for death.
Poorer! Yes, but richer, too! It Is
not grief alone that brings tears to
our eyes and Jumps to our throats as
we read the story, but pride and
thankfulness, as well. There come
times to most of us when, discour,
aged by someone's folly or weakness
perhaps our own-the world seems to
us a sordid place, hardly worth say
ing, But we take heart again at every
fresh revelation, such as this, Of the
divine in man.-Zion's Herald.

Bachelors In Distress.

DEEP MYSTERIES OF LIFE
If We Could Fathom Them Little
Would Be Left for Us to
Do Here.

If we could fathom life's mysteries
there would be little left for US to do
on earth. If we could understood
why the sun shines for some and the
shadows deepen for others there
would be no use to try to work out the
problem Of existence. 1t would be
solved for us beforehand and the
great questions which now quicken
our souls into being would never rise
to the surface. 1t is the mystery of
it all, the uncertainty of everything
save the existence of God, which
makes life such a wonder puzzle. a
puzzle to be picked out piece by piece
and fitted together in his own good
time. 1t is true that sometimes We
grow weary Of our work. We find
the processes too slow to suit our i'm
patient desires and the results not al
together equal to our expectations, but
for all that we lose our ambition
to correctly solve the problem as it Is
presented to us for solution. We are
In this world to work out our destiny
and the means to this end are placed
within our reach from the very out
set, but 1t so happens that our very
humanity binds us at times to our
best interests, and we carelessly and
even wilfully pass by the very things
which would prove Of most service to
us. Because our ~inclinations lie in
other directions than those for which
by nature we seem best fitted we oft
en- make the mistake of beginning
wrong, a condition which naturally
forestalls any hope Of success

Love and Grammar.

Some time ago a New York business
man, who is blessed with an extreme
ly pretty daughter, took his family to
England for an indefinite period, dur.
ing which he was to establish British
branches of his mercantile enterprises
in that country.
The charms of this young woman
wrought much havoc In the rank and
file of the men who met her abroad.
She was sweet and gracious to all,
but her heart, as well as her wit, be-
Ionged to her native land. One day
her father found her at her desk, knit.
ting her brows yer a letter.
What's the trouble, my dear?" he
asked solicitously.
Father" she responded dolefully, Il

nothing will induce me to ~conjugate

there. If 1t were not 30 / would have

Oh, Learned JUDGE.

A California judge decided that
there is no judicial authority to keep
a man from making love to his wife,
although 1t could stop his beating her.
The remarkable cause Of this remark
able decision was that a woman in
Los Angeles had applied for an injunc-
ton to restrain her husband from in
sisting on being attentive to her. This
judge was not a Solomon, but he real
tied that only a Solomon could be
trusted to rule upon the whims and
