known that many of the pages at

by the Princess Sayn-Wittgenstein,
The most fragrant instance was the
insertion by her in one of his books
of some pages attacking the Jews
and advising their deportation in a
body to Palestine. List was greatly
annoyed at this, for such sentiments
were entirely foreign to his character,

Jews; among them David Pepper,
the famous violoncellist. Not long

Man,s Best Years.

What are a mans best years" de.
ponds largely on what his youth was
the time for laying the foundation.
1t also depends upon the nature of
his work and something of his STAN
ina or staying powers; also, as to
whether he has mastered his environ
ments or allowed them to. master him.
Hugo Munsterberg places the high
water mark at so years; DR.. Wiley
thinks a mans best work should be
done after he is sixty; while DR..
Osfer claims that little original and
valuable work is done after the age
of forty. AS for my W humble opin-
ion, l am quite thoroughly convinced
that a man does not reach his prime
of intellectual strength and lucidity
until he arrives at the halfway house
-threescore and ten.
The life problem is very much like
q marathon, and should be decided
accordingly. On the one hand, 1t is
not q question of years, but Of condi-
tion-mentally and physically How
did he pass the SEVENTEEN milestone,
old and decrepit or vigorously? On
the other hand, it ia not q question as
to the time he made, but what was
his condition? Did he collapse or did
he finish strong?-Los Angeles Times

Was Hard to Please.

A good story is told of Provost
Hawkins, an old don of Oriel college,
Oxford, who was never happy unless
he could find some fault to criticize
in the undergraduates who came be-
fore him. Among other things the
record of chapel attendance was al
ways on Hawkins table ready to be
referred to for praise or blame.
One day when a student, who was
an Oriel man, al before him, the
provost consulted the record.
II observe, Mr.. King" said he,
shat you have never missed a single
chapel, morning OF evening, during
the whole term"
He paused, but instead Of a word
of praise, which might reasonably
have been expected. he continued Sc
verely:
Il must a you, Mr.. King. that
even too regular attendance at chapel
may degenerate into formalism."-

COTTON TRADE OF ENGLAND
Origin Of Great Industry Can Be
Traced Back to Beginning OF
Seventeenth Century.

The cotton trade Of Lancashire,
England, dates back tn the very be.
ginning Of the seventeenth century.
A petition of 1921, preserved in the
state papers, mentioned the infancy
Of the industry; for there the petition
ing London merchants stated that
about 20 years divers people in this
kingdom. but chiefly In the county OF
Lancaster, have found out the trade
of making Of other fustians made Of q
kind of bombast or down, being q
fruit Of the earth, growing upon little
shrubs or bushes, brought into this
kingdom by the Turkey merchants
from Smyrna, Ceyprus. Ocra and Sy-
don, but commonly called cotton
wool"
This cotton from Lancashire soon
found It's way into the foreign markets
of the world. Thus the Treasure Of
Traffic" 1641, on the industry of the
good folk Of Manchester: They buy
cotton wool In London that comes
first from Cyprus and Smyrna, and at
home work the same and perfect 1t
into fustians, vermillions. dimities, and
other such stuffs, and then return 1t to
London, where the same Is vented
and sold, and not seldom sent into
foreign parts" And, lockouts per-
hitting, they do the same thing to
day.

STUDYING Problem Of Ace.

The brittle arteries of old age
which the doctors call athermotos.
and which my many are considered an
unavoidable and more or less physi-
illogical accompaniment Of advancing
years, are responsible directly and
indirectly for a very considerable por-
ton Of the annual death rate. Those
sanguine folks who hold that death
could and should be postponed to the
hither side of one hundred years
that centenarians should be the rule
rather than the rare exception-are
coming more and more to question the
necessity for this early rusting out of
the body plumbing. Metchnikof's IA
nous studies which led him to the
conclusion that Jour milk was the
elixir Of longevity started the ball
rolling afresh, and since then the
physiological laboratories have been
busily at work studying the problem

Wind and Fish.

It is reported that a singular cor
respondence exists between the pre-
vailing direction of the wind on the
coast Of New South Wales and the
average catch of fish.
1t appears that the winds which in
fiuence the cea currents influence,
in turn, the course Of the fish. These
influences have periods Of three or
four years. Thus in 1899. there was
a general scarcity Of fish, but after
ward they became more and more
abundant up to the year 1902. In
1906 there was another scarcity OF
fish, but the next year they began to
return in increasing numbers.
The cause Of these variations was
regarded as a mystery until the CO.
incidence with the prevailing direc.
ton of the coastal winds was no
ticed. Now it is thought by the study
Of the winds the prospects Of the fish
ermen may be predicted two or three

Writing Of the recent murder of the
German-American mineralogist, John

SUFFERER IN HARD LUCK
Cure May BE Effected, but the Process'

In lts Effect.

There Is no cure for suffering.
This does not mean that no sufferer
can be cured-far from it-but that
there is no treatment which is sur to

hood, where the afliction Is first mo-
ticed, and carefully treated, he can
sometimes be cured, and generally
much improved.
DR.. Frank A. Bryant Of New York,

the first thing to do is to make sure
that there are no distractions In

sils or adenoids. The child must be
taught to breathe through the nose.

Any measures that will increase men,
