She Isn't Built That Way

A loafer on the street. whose wife
was probably at home getting out
a neighbours washing to make mon
ey to buy the children shoes, asked
a busy man the other day if he had
ever seen a bald headed woman.
"No, | never did," replied the
busy man. "And ] never saw a
woman Waiting around town in
her shirt sleeves with cigar in her
mouth and running into every sa-
loon she saw Neither did ! ever
see woman standing in the street
all day telling people how the secre-
tary of the treasury should run the
national finances. | never saw a
woman go fishing with a bottle in
her pocket. sit on the bank all day
and go home drunk at night. Nor
have | ever seen a woman yank off
her coat and say she could lick any
man in town. God bless 'em, the
women are not built that way. .

Naming the Baby.

The Mohammedans write FIVE
names on slips of paper and place
them in the Koran. One slip is
drawn out, and the name written
thereon is bestowed upon the baby.
With the Egyptians three lighted
candles are taken and named-one
name always being of Biblical char
acter--and the candle which burns
the longest determines the child's
name. The Hindus allow the moth
er to name baby when it is
twelve. days old, but if the father
does not like the chosen name he
selects another. Then the two
names are written on slips Of paper
and held over a lighted lamp, that
which burns the brighter being the
name finally adopted.

The use of poison in war was

Tended BY no less an authority than
Wolff. There are reported instances
OF wells, springs, ponds and streams

numerous of the intentional defile-

THINGS ALL OUGHT TO KNOW

As Christian Bible Students-The Sat.
isfactory Proof Of "Why God Permit.
Evil"
One OF the questions which comes to
nearly every thinking mind today is.
why does God permit evilY" AS we
look about us In the world we observe
that 1t Is filed with sorrow and trouble.
sickness and pain and every trial we
could enumerate, and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS IT.
We realize that He is almighty and
that He could prevent It II He wished.
We read in His Word that He Is more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs, and we
know how much that means; yet Of
tent1mes It seems that those who try
to do and live right have the most
trouble. This question Is made very
clear In a book entitled. THE Divine
Plan Of the Ages Every statement
Is backed by Scripture. and shows that
while God does not sanction evil HE
HAS HAD A PURPOSE IN ALLOW
ING SIN AND DEATH TO REIGN
THESE SIX THOUSAND YEARS.
This and many other subjects OF deep
interest to all Of Gods people are dis
cussed fully and in language easy OF
comprehension.

AN ALPINE TRAGEDY.

sTherc is regrettable modern
tendency to disrespect the dliilcui-
ties of some of the great Alps, esPe-
c;allv those whose ascents have APP
pealed to popular favor. The Wet
ferhorn. or Storm peak, that huge
rock embattled sentinel OF the
Grindelwald giants, is the most no
torious example Of this" writes .
George D. Abraham in the Pali
Mali Magazine. "Truly even on
mountains familiarity breeds con,
temnt.' It has been lightly named
the Ladies peak but with far too
terrible frequency fearful revenge
has been extorted; it's death roll Is
eoualed by few of the Alps.
aThe following tragedy OF 1908
is typical of many others. A young
English lady, aided by the best OF
guides, made one of the earliest
ascents of the season and innocent
" left silken handkerchief flut-
tering in the summit breezes. This
was noticed through the large tel
escope at Grindelwald, and a Swiss
workman, reused by the sight, wag-
cred forthwith that he would bring
down the trophy single handed.
sHe won the wager, but lost his
l;fe in the winning. Common sense
prevailed to the extent of taking
companion as inexperienced as him
self and fortune smiled upon them
until they almost reached the foot
of the Great Couloir on their re-
turn. There the young workman
united from the rope and, waving
the trophy of success in his hand,
started to glissade direct down the
snow slope to the glacier.
."The friends example and advice
to follow the usual descent by the
rocks at the side of the couloir were
utterly disregarded. At. express
speed he rushed downward until
suddenly he saw the end of the cou-
loir overhanging nothingness and
the glacier some hundreds of feet
below. 1t was too late. With a
shrek of warning to his friend he
dashed outward over the edge into
space and eternity The next day
the remains were recovered. In his
right hand the unfortunate victim
of his own folly clutched the hand
kerchief; he brought it down to
GrindelWald."

An Extraordinary Migration.

One of the greatest mysteries to
scientists, one for which there
seems to be no reasonable explana-
ton, is that concerning the migra-
ton of the lemming, or Norway rat.
Instead of taking place once a year,
these migrations occur only once IN
eleven years. When the time comes
for the exodus the little animals
journey westward from Scandina-
via, allowing nothing to stop their
movements, which virtually amount
to headlong fight. They swim
the lakes and rivers and climb the
highest mountains in incalculable
numbers, devastating the whole
country through which they travel.
Naturalists attribute the movement
to some inherited memory of
flight to escape an expected cat
aclysm, but this seems somewhat
farfetched.
