We do not fatter ourselves that the
Intellect of our time, judged by the
power of individuals, is exceptionally
great. No doubt, men Of commanding
genius are still with US, but they are
not more numerous or more original
than in former times. What then Is
the popularity that has produced such
great results? In my opinion what
has been accomplished is due in great
part to the spread of higher education,
which has evolved an army Of compe-
tent investigators possessing enthusi-
asm for research which now, for the
first time, is led into useful paths by
the few great minds, whose powers
thus receive a wider range and be-
come more productive. 1t is in this
that our great strength lies.-Prof.

japanese life, says James DaVen-
port Whelpley in the Century, is much
less flowery than it seems. In no
other country in the world does
parger percentage of women partlci-
pate in wage earning. In the United
States for every sc male wage earn
ers there are IA female. In Great
Britain, it is rs to %, in Germany 80
to 20, in Italy Is to p, while In
japan there are nearly twice as many
women as men on the payrolls OF
the country. 1t is the testimony OF all
large employers that the women are
the industrial backbone of the coun-
try. The employment of women and
children is the secret of the conpetl-
tive power of the Japanese textile and
other light handicraft industries. and It
is for this reason that the possible
operation of a law enforcing sanitary
provisions and even the common de-
cencies of humanity in factory life is
viewed with alarm by the manufactur-
ers in their necessarily strenuous
competition for foreign trade.
The new law limits hours Of en-
ployment, forbids the use of children
under certain ages and the employ
ment of women at night and in dan
gerous occupations 1t can be under
derstood. therefore, whence comes

ices to begin. 1t was early and the
congregation was assembling. While
idly watching the people coming in,
l saw gentleman pass by me up the
aisle, who made me forget all the 9TH
ers. He had not the al of a New

city style, but as l noted his face and
expression, / said way down in my
heart, That is the kind of man l could
love; the only man l have ever seen
who could make me forget my own
world and my own people, 1t was a
passing thought, soon forgotten. But
when in that hour of embarrassment
and peril on Greylock mountain,
looked up into the face of my rescuer
and saw again that countenance which
so short time before had called into
life impulses till then utterly un-
known, l knew that my hour was
come. And that was why my conf
dence was so spontaneous and my be-
lief in the future SO absolute.

written to me, and have the dancing
words with which to silence any un-

exuberance of these secret outpour-
ings.

that you would remain as silent as
myself. But mems ways are not our

my baby was given up by three
doctors who said that the condensed
milk on which | had fed her had
ruined the child's stomach. One or

follows: l soaked 11k tahlespoontuls

mixed II teaspoonfuls Of this strained
Grape-Nuts juice with Xix teaspoonfuls
of rich milk, put in a pinch OF salt ana

to baby every two hours.

for not making a better appearance.

But he saw, very plainly by this

more subtle methods yet ere his hand

His work at the bench suffered that

Saturday night he had satisfied him

where he would be justified in making
use Of Miss Challoners letters. So
he telephoned his wishes to New

latter, every factor in his scheme must

But was he brooding? That sound

which ended it! Anger and determin-
