Effective Theft Preventive.

Considerable excitement was caused
In Hatton Garden, London, England,
one evening recently, by the loud ring
ing Of a burglar alarm and the exhibit
ton Of danger sign outside the
premises of Messrs. Albert Ramsey
& Co., diamond merchants The po-
lice drew a Gordon round the building
and then forced an entry. The result
was that three men we're taken into
custody. The apparatus which effected
their arrest Is described as the very
latest thing in practical burglar
alarms. 1t consists Of steel cabinet,
which Is fitted all round safe or 9TH
er depository for valuables. AS soon
as this cabinet Is disturbed In any way
a gong nearly two feet In diameter be-
gins to ring outside the building and
danger sign In red letters is brightly
illuminated by electricity.

"Not Worth the Candle"

The well-known saying, "the game is
not worth the candle means that It
is not worth even the candle that
lights the players during their game.
1t Is used with reference to an under
taking to signify that the results
trouble or :esaxpense Incurred. The
French have the same saying-'le ieu

bert, an English writer of the seven
teenth century, occurs the proVerb:
1T Is a poor sport that Is not worth

those old ones, the origin Of which it
Is difficult, if not impossible, to trace.

ROWING Men Superstitious.

Oarsmen, like sailors, are apt to be
superstitious. In the university boat
race at Oxford, England, the belief
that the winner Of the toss will win
the race is generally justified. So,
also, is the idea Of weight meaning
victory, for A out of So races have
gone to the heavier crew. At one
time it was the fad for Oxford to
carry bunch of violets in their boat
'for luck but this has died out. In
1908 oranges cured several Of the Ok
ford crew of influenza, and some Of
them took to orange-colored ties, but
Cambridge won. Another mascot that
failed was the fox terrier Bob, who &C
companied the light blues all through
their training in 1911.

The Gentleman.

As finished product, the gentleman
seems to do everything very easily;
but that ease like the case Of the habit,
can only come by effort. He is socially
secure; but whatever his station, he
was not born 50. for no man ever Is
socially secure by birth, even If he
was born to be king. The test of a
gentleman is the pleasure others take
in his society, and not in his wit or his
virtue Of his learning, but In their or
binary social relations with him. And
this pleasure he cannot give merely
by being on good terms with himself.

hskismet,"

"Kismet'' Is an Arabic word mean
ing "fate," or ut is fated." A belief
in predestination Is one Of the funda-
mental principles In the Mohammedan
faith. Not only a mans fortune, but
his deeds, and consequently his fu-
ture reward or punishment, are, ac-
cording to this faith, irreyocably, and
thus unavoidably, pre-ordained-a doc
trine which has contributed largely to
the success Of Islam by inspiring Its
champions with the greatest contempt
for the dangers of warfare. When q
Mohammedan meets with any disaster
he accepts the situation calmly, mere

Sermon M;scarried.

Bishop Bloomfield, famous English
divine, received one Of the most chas

in his pre-episcopal days, he found as
he was going into a Buchnghamsh1re
pulpit that he had left his sermon be-

himself SO well that he thought ne

The Association of the Cloth and

of Bendigo, the famous pugilist, who,
on his retirement, seorned the usual

sought to make others follow his lead.
He favored the muscular missionary
method. One one occasion a meeting
Of atheists was pointed out to him.

The Earth,s Shadow.

The earth has q shadow. but very
few ever see 1t, except In eclipses OF
the moon, or else few recognize 1t
when they see It. Nevertheless, many
OF us have noticed it on fine, cloudless
evenings In summer shortly before
sunset, rosy pink arc on the horizon
opposite the sun, with blush gray
segment under 1t, AS the sun sinks
the arc rises until 1t attains the zenith
and even passes 1t. This is the
