NEW LANGUAGE HAS EVOLVED
Americans In the Philippines Have

Meanwhile reflex action was quiet

newcomers were being influenced by
the new land and the new people.
New methods of living were en-
forced on the Americans. Their rules
OF health did not always apply. Day
after day they were surrounded by
people observing strange customs, fol-
lowing totally different moral code
and speaking an unfamiliar tongue.
Gradually the customs became less
strange, the moral code less different
and the tongue less unfamiliar. While
endeavoring to establish their ways
and methods, the Americans uncon-
sciously were yielding to the ways and
methods of the country.
Many things of great value in the
old order had no place in the new. In

"SiphOn" Sjsson.

Thomas Upton Sisson, member Of
congress from the Fourth district Of
Alabama, is destined to go down in his
tory as the siphon bottle statesman.
Which is an unfortunate fate.
When the Acknowledgements i'm
broglio was at height Mr.. Sisson deliv-
cred an impassioned anti-Japanese
speech on the floor of the house.
"If We must have war;" he declared,
cor submit to this indignity, am for
war"
Later, in the tariff debate, Repre-
sentative Johnson of Washington, re-
proving him for this speech, called at
tention to the fact that Mr. Sisson had
voted last year against battleship
program, and then he referred to the
southerner as the sizzling scion from
the Mississippi, Mr. Sisson"
If that doesn't sound like siphon
bottle, what does? The resemblance
caught the fancy of the cloakroom con-
gressional kidders, and they are ring
ing the changes on it whenever Mr..
Sisson happens along.

Plants Have Mother Principle

There is a mother principle alive in
all nature which never dies. This is
different from the mother instinct. the
mother passion. The oak and the
amoeba respond to the mother princi-
pie. 1t is law of life; it is one of
the constants of being. The mother
instinct or passion, on the other hand,
occurs only among the higher ami
mails; occurs not sporadically quite,
for it is common enough, yet while
generally found, and while one of the
strongest, most interesting, most beau
tiful of animal traits, it is at the same
time the most individual and the least
constant.
This COW of my neighbours that
hear lowing is an entirely gentle crea-
ture, ordinarily, but with a calf at her
side she will pitch at anyone who ap-
proaches her. And there is no other
COW of the herd who mourns so long
when her calf is taken away. The
mother in her is stronger, more endur-
ing, than in any of the other 10 in the
barn. In my own cow it is hardly more
than blind principle, hardly advanced
beyond the oak trees feeling for it's
acorns, or the amoeba's for it's divid-
ed self.-Dallas Lore Sharp In the At.
lantic Monthly.

In China, western ideas are going
ahead A proof of this is that the
European medicine chest has been
adopted. DR.. WI Lien Teh (still

his degrees, as &c L. Tuck'), the di-

Ice organized by the Chinese govern
ment, recently came to England to
read a paper at the International
Medical Congress on his work in
North China. Il wish the use OF
Chinese medicines was dying out as
quickly as we expected" he said
but the people are saturated with
old-fashioned ideas, and it will take
some time to eradicate them. Still.
he added western treatment is max

and there are great many European
trained doctors now practicing among
the Chinese The general stage OF
medicine in China is about compar-
able to what 1t was in Europe so or
so years ago. A significant sign OF
progress is that the Old-fashioned
physicians are coming to our service
and asking western trained men TO
give them lectures and advice, while
the people themselves are taking an
interest in health subjects.

New Bed of ScaIlops.

The demand for sea food is a per-

even the succulent clam is not found

and the report just made to the Sec

GRAMMAR OF LOST LANGUAGE
Signs Of Ancient scgdian Race Found
in Central Asia Presented to
Paris Sorbonne.

r. Gauthiot, the French savant. has
presented TO the Paris Sorbonne the
first grammar of the Sogdian Ian
guage, which was lost to the world
one thousand years ago.
The Sogdians are supposed to have
been a powerful and highly cultured
race. inhabiting Central Asia, where
now there is merely a sandy desert
Their language. II is declared, shows
that they were the parents of all the
present European and Indo-European
races. though the method OF writing
this language resembles Semitic rath-
er than Arabic.
The land which the Sogdians inhab-
tied formed a link between Siberia on
the north, China on the east. Tibet
and India on the south and Irania and
Persia on the west. Before the devel-
opment of sea commerce the cara
vans disseminating the riches of the
orient all passed through Sogdia, the
last vesti ges of which are supposed
to have teen destroyed by the Mon
gols in the eleventh century Within
decade travellers and explorers have
found traces OF great cities buried
In the sand, with Buddhist art work
ers OF considerable beauty and at
least two libraries of manuscripts
while remains of canals indicate that
the Sogdians we'll understood irriga-
ton.
Although the modern Persians are
believed TO have descended directly
from the Sogdians, whose language is
supposed to have disappeared during
the Mohammedan renaissance in the
eighth century. only one miserable

central Asia. namely, the Yagnobis. is
thought to preserve some Characters

cry is expected to clear up many
