An intimate friendship is at once 2 safeguard in recreation and social enjoyment, for man thinks twice be. fore he plunges into surroundings which he knows his best friend would condemn. It is a stimulus, because in work or business, or. even play, a man does not willingly lag behind while the friend is forging ahead. In common endeavors for good causes, religious or social or political, friend. ship is a powerful inducement to self. forgetting activity.

The "sentence Cap.~

\ small, limp piece of black cloth ts, according to ancient custom, put on the top of the Judges wig in England before he passes sentence of death, and is properly called the sentence cap" or "black cap" Covering the head was sign of mourning among the Israelites, Greeks, Romans and Anglo Saxons, and is referred to ID Samuel ii, 15,So. Putting on the black cap is not grim sign of revenge of the law. but is rather a token of sor COW, expressing the regret the judge fsels at having to condemn the pris omar to death

CHANCES of Climate.

A scientist who recently investigated
the causes of secular variations in tenn
perature at the earth's surface thinks
that they are more probably due to
changes in the amount Of carbonic
acid in the atmosphere than to varia-
tons in the heat Of the sun. If the
amount of carbonic acid that the air
now contains was diminished little
more than half, the mean temperature
all over the earth would, it is stated,
drop about eight degrees, which would
be sufficient to bring on another gla-
cial period. On the other hand, an in
crease of carbonic acid to between two
and three times It's present amount
would raise the mean temperature Is
degrees and renew the hot times of
the Eocene epoch.

THE LURE OF THE WEST
WESTERN CANADA ATTRACTING
THOUSANDS or SETTLERS.

Writing on the Canadian West, an
eastern exchange truthfully says:
'The West still calls with impera-
tive voice. To prairie and mountain.
and for the Pacific Coast, Ontario's
young men and women are attracted
by tens OF. thousands yearly. The
great migration has put an end to the
fear, freely expressed not many years
ago by those who knew the West from
the lakes to the farther coast Of Van
couver Island, that Canada would
some day break in two because Of the
predominance of Continental European
and American settlers in the West"
This is true. While the immigra-
ton from the United States is large,
running close to 10000 year, that of
the British Isles and Continental
Europe nearly twice that number, max
ing total of 100000 per year, there
is a strong influx from Eastern Can
ada. It is not only into the prairie
provinces that these people go, but
many Of them continue westward, the
glory of British Columbia's great trees
and great mountains, the excellent
agricultural valleys, where can be
grown almost all kinds of agriculture
and where fruit has already achieved
prominence. Then the vast expanse
of the plains attract hundreds of thou
sands, who at once set to work to cul-
tivate their vast holdings. There is
still room, and great opportunity in
the West. The work of mans hands,
even in the cities with their record
breaking building rush, is the small
est part of the great panorama that
is spread before the eye on journey
through the country. Nature is still
supreme, and man is still the divine
pigmy audaciously seeking to impose
his will and stamp his mark upon an
unconquered half continent.
The feature that most commends
itself in Western development today
Is the "home-making spirit The
West will find happiness in planting
trees and making gardens and build
ing schools and colleges and UNIVERSE
ties, and producing a home environ.
ment so that there will be no disposi-
ton to regard the country as TEN.
porary place of abode in which every.
one is trying to make his pile prepar.
atory to going back East or becoming
lotus-eater beside the Pacific.
The lure of the West is strong. II
will be still stronger when the crude
new towns and villages of the plains
are empowered In trees and vocal
with the song of birds.-Advertise

Cannon of Solid Rock.

When the island of Malta was under
the rule of the Knights of st. John
they defended their Notifications with
cannon bored in the living rock. Each

tanned an entire barrel of powder, and

Of these cannon so we're made ready
facing various directions from which
the enemy might approach.
When the fame Of these arms of de-
Tense became known to the world the
idea was taken up Of transporting

be impracticable, and the cannon OF

MANY PERSONS COLOR BLIND
Tests Used by Railroads Show That
Almost Everybody Is Slightly
Color Blind.

The various tests for color blind
ness have come into practical use in
the examination of railroad engineers
and the like, where the ability to dis
tinguish colOrs is necessary, so that
these tests are no longer peculiar to
the laboratory. But it Is not gener-
ally known outside the laboratory that
everybody is partially color blind
that is, in certain parts of the field OF
vision. The most normal individual
can see all the colors only when he
looks directly at them. If looked at
from an angle of about fifteen degrees
red and green can no longer be seen,
but In their places will appear shades
Of yellow or blue. This region of the
eyes is known as the yellow-blue zone.
If the color be moved still farther to
the side the yellow and blue will dis
appear and only gray can be seen.
This region is known as the zone of
complete color blindness. An inter
esting theory in regard to these zones
is that every normal eye represents
three stages of evolution. The zone
of complete color blindness is the low
est stage, and appears in such ami
mails as the frog, whose vision is
known as shadow vision. The blue
yellow zone is one step higher in the
scale, although not clearly marked
off in the animal kingdom. And the
appearance Of the red-green zone
marks the highest stage of evolution.
Cases of color blindness are, accord
ing to this theory. a lack of develop
ment beyond the early stage of indi-
Vidual life.-Strand Magazine.
