theme of the play is the rather pathet-
ic story of the failure of young coun-
try fellow who leaves a charming
home and mother, and "a dear little
sweetheart to GO to New York where
he feels sure he can accomplish big
things His lack of success at home
he attributes to the limitations of a
small town. But in New York he
meets a dainty little chorus girl, all
silks and ruffles and laces, who de-
murely assures him that she is afraid
to go home from the theatre alone
nights. OF course the country boy
assumes the role of protector to the
poor girl and very soon he forgets
pretty nearly everything else except
her whims and desires. He soon gets
rid of his money, howevr, and as he
loses his job, too, just at this time,
of course the girl drops him. She has
no use for a moneyless man even for
the seemingly simple task of seeing
her home from the theatre. But that
is only the beginning of the disillu-
sionments which the lad undergoes.
Before he has finished learning thing
or two about what a fellow is up
against who comes to the great city
to make his way single handed, he
decides that the game is not worth
the candle and when he gets letter
from home telling him of the coming
marriage of his little back home
sweetheart to his former rival, he de-
on suicide. But "the darkest |
line of morning is just before the
Freak of day" they say, and so the
boy finds it. For grouchy
man takes the lad under
lis care and they 60 back to the coun-
ry and start newspaper and make
,ood at last. Tom gets his sweet
cart back, too, for she jilts the other
elbow just in time for happy cur

., Cases in Many Lands. -,
It has been estimated that some
thing like 20,000,000 Egyptian num-
miles have been discovered. says the
Christian Herald. Thousands Of those
best preserved are now in the show
cases Of the various museums OF the
world. In the tombs with the num-
mics were countless other objects.
There were paintings on the walls,
chairs and tables, Jars containing the
parts Of the body which were removed
when the mummy was prepared,
mummy cases gaudily covered with
funeral scenes and hieroglyphic In
scriptions, and in the cases along with
the mummies were papyri. Beneath
each mummy's head, like cushion.
was little disk of clay or papyrus,
covered with NEUROLOGICAL pictures
and with stereotyped hymn. The
disks, found in great numbers, are
nearly alike, varying only slightly with
the period from which they come.
"Hypocephalf' they are called. be-
cause they were placed beneath the
head. Like the mummies, the objects
found with them have been scattered
abroad, and In the museum at Cairo
any tourist may purchase as many or
them as he will. ~.
The inscriptions on the disks and
the mummy cases, of course, could
not at first be read, nor could the my
theological pictures accompanying them
be understood until the inscription
could be read. However, In 1899, the
famous Rosetta Stone was discovered,
and Champollion, a French scholar,
began the slow process Of deciphering
its hierogryphic inscription with the
aid Of the accompanying Greek trans
lation. The process was so slow that
1t was not until 1841 that a grammar
of the Egyptian language appeared.
Then the progress in the study OF the
language was rapid; the strange HERO
glyphics became as ineligible as an
English newspaper.

ODD FACTS ABOUT CITIES
Collected by a Professor at the Uni
versity Of Wisconsin.

versity Of Wisconsin. ...
Some little known facts about Amer
lean cities have been collected by Prof
r. H. Whitbeck of the geology de-
partment of the University of Wiscon-
sin.
That Massachusetts,, one Of the
smallest states, has more large cities
than any other, state in the Union. is
one of the odd facts brought out 1t
has twenty-five cities with a popula-
ton of $4,000 or over. The state OF
New York has twenty-one cities Of this
size, while Pennsylvania has twenty.
Texas, the largest state in the Union
has no city Of 100000 or over. There
Is only one city In Arkansas. Little
Rock. that has over $4,000, while New
Jersey, only a fraction Of its size, has
fourteen cities Of $4,000.
The peculiar fact that four states
have one very large city, while the
city Of second size is almost unknown,
is also pointed out. For instance. ev-
cry one knows that Chicago is the
| first city Of Illinois and has a popu-
lation Of over 100000. but few know
| that the second city in Illinois Is Peo-
ria, only one-thirtieth the size Of Chi
cago. While Baltimore has half mil
lion population, Cumberland, the. next
city of Maryland, has only $4,000.
New Orleans is twelve times the size
Of Shreveport, the next city of Louis
lana. Milwaukee Is nearly ten times
| the size Of Superior, the second city OF
Wisconsin. There are now nineteen
cities in the United States with a pop
ulation Of quarter Of million each.
Only one of these, New Orleans. Is In
| the south.

counts; and the men who are thor
oughly interested In life are always Of
more account and are always of great
er value to the world, as well as to
themselves. than the men who are In
terested only in these. ,.,o.. E
THAT. Is why a very eminent cor
poration lawyer, In q notable address
some time ago, said: 1T is because
believe 80 strongly In the saving pow
er Of the intellectual life upon the in
stitutions Of society, and upon the well
fare Of individuals, that I plead so
earnestly for It. The fortunes of SCI
ence, art, literature and government
are indissolubly linked with Il. The
centres and shrines Of the most potent
influences are not the seats Of com
merce and apital. The village of
Concord, where Emerson, Hawthorne,
Aicott and Thoreau lived, was, In their
day, and win long continue to be,
greater force In this nation than New
York and Chicago added to each 9TH
.er. We may rest In the assured faith
that, whoever may seem to rule, the
thinker is and always will be the mas
ter. rrsnS9 ~ ~ -
! SIT is little Short of marvellous to
think what few men with these
equipments, scattered throughout vari-
GUS communities anu clues ana states,
could do for the civic, for community,
for human advancement, were they to
throw these energies as actively along
these lines as they have thrown them
into their various lines Of business. y
itt"No greater JOY can come to any
man than to use his means and his
abilities while he still lives In connec-.
ton with human needs and the ad-
vancing OF human welfare. 81
There Is no deep and abiding sat
isfactton for man on account OF big
business; on account Of large accumu-i
lations, on account Of large achieve
ments along these lines. Said Jane
Addams recently: Nothing so deadens
the sympathies and shrivels the power,
OF enjoyment as the persistent keeping
away from the great opportunities for
helpfulness and a continual ignoring,
Of the starvation struggle which makes
up the life Of at least half the race. -,

are incapable Of the things Of. the mind
