The Costly Legal Advice

Mr K, a lawyer. was much addicted to the habit of lecturlng his clerks, the office boy coming for an unusual share of admonition whenever occasion called for it, and sometimes when 1t did not. That his words were appreciated was made quite evident to Mir. K one day when a conversation between his and another office boy on the same floor was reported to him
 "Whacher wages?" asked the other boy 'I get $i0.O00 year. said MT. Ks lad.
 "I don't think" ejaculated the other boy derlsively.

The First Real
Thinker
By Rev. T. B. Gregory.

DYTHAGoRAS, Of Samos, who
may well be called the first
real thinker, died February
7, b C. 497.
For many years Pythagoras
was the high priest of one of the
most illustrious societies of an
tiquity; was looked upon as being
little less than a god; while his
influence was such that the
greatest of the earth were willing
to make any sacrifices that were
necessary in order to become
members Of his cult.
Pythagoras was the FIRST to use
the word philosopher" lie was
not. he declared. a sophist (wise
mani, but a philosopher Clover OF
wisdom). He was the foun1er of
the noble science of mathematics.
The Descartes Of the ancient time,
he created ge, netry, which he
made to be the basis of his teach
ing He is said to have discovered
the great truth in music, that
changes OF sound are indissolubly
connected with and dependent
upon the changes in length and
tension. He was the originator of
the word cosmos" (order. or har-
mony) as applied 10 the system Of
nature. The first to teach the
idea of natural law, ne declared
that the universe is a beautiful
harmony, with law assisting law.
and all working together to pro-
duce cosmos-that is, beauty and
perfection rather than chaos and
confusion. Hence his celebrated
teaching of the Music of the
Spheres" He did not mean that
the suns and planets made an aC-
tual music which could be heard
by the outer ear. but that in the
contemplation of the cosmos and
its laws is to he found the in
tellectual harmony and delight
which may well be likened TO
sweetest music.

Why a Needle VIII
Float on Water

n -"ETpldiR the philosophy Of
X he surfGce tension of liquids
in connection tcith the fIotdtion
of the needle"
"A steel needle laid carefully
on a still water surface will float,
although the weight of steel or
iron is greater than that of an
equal volume of water
Molecules of liquids cohere, but
with force far less than in SOL
ids or viscid substances. But the
thin needle of metal gently placed
horizontally on water has not
quite weight enough to break the
surface tension-that is. molecu-
lar attraction-of the water below
il.
Attraction of molecules is a
force that exerts great influence
in nature, Thus this force draws
particles of water in fogs into
drops of water which are heavy
enough to fall as rain. Dew is a
formation Of minute particles of
water into drops at rest on sur
faces.
The molecular attraction of the
heavy liquid-mercury-is in
tense. else this s1eavy liquid could
not be drawn by it into spheres
or drops Melted lead forms into
minute globes when let fall in
high shot towers.
There is a great difference in
the intensity of molecular attrac-
ton, as meg be observed in all
cohol, gasoline. sulphuric ether
and similar limpid liquids, and oil.
syrup, glycerine and other viscous
liquids.
Soap bubbles could not be blown
in alcohol or benzine, but they
form readily in water And the
molecules in the thin films really
attract with some force, else the
bubbles would burst before they
become so large. The most eiab-
crate mathematics is required to
handle molecular forces, fit only
for technical journals.

Proposed immigration Laws

Congress is busy at laws to immigration. Such laws

considered that he had a perfect
right to love and ride away. If
he enjoyed a woman's society he
had no hesitation in monopoliz-
ing as much of 1t as he cared to,
even If he knew that his atten-
tions we're without intention. and
that he was never going to let his
pllilandertng take him so far as
the altar.
1t was nothing to him that he
let a girl waste her youth and
beauty on him, or that he, who
never intended to ask her to
marry him, kept away other men
who would have been glad to
have married her. or that he let
her fill her heart so full with love
for him that there would never be
room in it for affection for some
honest man.
Men Are More Considerate
Of Women Now Than
IN The Past.
That waESthe way the chival-
rous man of the past looked at
the tender subject, and all of us
know q dozen women who were
the victims of this selfish and
heartless cruelty. How different
ly the man of to-day regards the
matter is attested by hundreds of
letters that come to me from
girls to whom this new chivalry
is so unexpected and novel that
they are bewildered by it.
In these letters a girl will
write that she doesn't know what
TO think of the conduct of a GER
tain msn-that she knows he
likes her, and enjoys her society,
but that he has frankly told her
that he does not want to marry
her. or for some x,eason that he
can not marry her, and that she
must not let him keep her from
marrying somebody else IL she
wants to.
One man told a gfri that he
would never marry anybody be-
cause there was insanity In his
family. Another told a girl that
he was too poor to marry. and
that she must not think of wait
ing for him, because it would be
years and years before he could
hope to support n wife IN decent
comfort, and that he would never
marry any woman and drag hep
down to poverty.
Still another man tod a gir7
that he could never marry as long
as his mother lived because he
could never leave her-she had
made the most heroic sacrifices
for him in his childhood-butt that
she was of so eccentric and dis
agreeable disposition that Il
would be martyrdom for any
young woman to have to live With
her.
Each of these men urged the
girl he liked, or perhaps loved.
to put him out of her thought,
and to marry some more fortu-
nately situated swain while the
sun Of her youth and beauty
shone.

By DOROTHY DIX

VERY now and then some
n Ancient Mariner. or An
cient Mariness, rises up
and ascends to the Wailing Place,
and beats upon his or her breast.
and cries out that there is no
more gallantry among men, and
that chivalry is dead.
These prophets of woe base
their melancholy prognostiea-
tions upon the fact that men are
not as glib at paying women
flowery compliments as they used
to be, nor so supple about jump
ing to pick up a handkerchief
when a lady drops it, and that
when a tired man gets seat in a
street car he's mighty apt to let a
husky, able-bodied woman stand.
Therefore, the people who OBJ
serve these small fry phenomena
affirm that chivalry Is dead, and
if they happen to be anti-suf-
fragists they go a step farther
and assert that they know who
killed Cock Robin. 1t was the
women themselves, and they did
it by going into business and
wanting rights.
1t always makes me mad,
through and through. to hear
anybody claim that chivalry is
dead. On the contrary, assert
that for the first time in the his
tory of humanity, chivalry has
been born into the world, and
that the modern, commonplace,
tweed suited business man could
give Sir Launcelot, and Sir Gal
ahad, and all the other rattling
tin-pan knights of the Table
Round points on a real chivairy
so big and fine that they never
ever dreamed of 1t. much less
practlced It.
Talk about your chfvalry Of
the past, when ii wasn't safe for
a woman to put her foot outside
of her own door without some
body going along to protect her!
Talk about your chivalry of the
past, when women were nothing
but slaves OF their men folks!
Atlanta Georgian., 1914-02-28
Chivalry Is Not Dead, a
Many Would Have Us
Believe.

Talk about your chivalry Of the
past. when a father left all of
his money to his sons, when a
husband didn't hesitate to strip
his wife of every cent she pos
sessed on her wedding day, and
when brothers thought 1t all
right to take everything and
leave the sisters nothing! Talk
about your chivalry of the past,
when women were denied an edu-
cation, and a right to exercise
the talents that nature had given
them, when they were prevented
from even going out into the
world and making an honest liv-
ing!
But the crivalry OF to-day
makes 1t safe for a woman to go
alone from one end of the world
to another because every man is
her protector. The chlvalry of
to-day secures a woman's own
property to her. The chivalry of
to- day gives her chance to fol-
low any occupation she desires,
and to make just as good in it as
a man could. The chivalry of to-
day in some places-and it soon
will verywhere-even gives
women an equal right with men
IN government.
And believe me, brethren and
sisters, picking up handker-
chiefs. and even street car seats.
are a mighty poor substitute for
property laws and the right to
make an honest living.
Another way, and a very inter-
esting one, and a most important
one. in which the new chivalry of
men is expressing itself is the
masculine attitude toward wom-
an and the marriage proposition.

so many people mourn, man

consider this the highest pos
sible proof OF true galIantry and
of real chivalry, for these men
protected the girls against them
selves, and they sacrificed their
own selfish pleasure for the good
of women. When a man has
reached the place where he won't
let a girl waste the sweetness and
fragrance Of her youth on him
when he knows he can make no
adequate return for it, and when
he refuses to marry unless he
knows he can make his wife hap
py. we have got a modern article

the old brand off the board.
