INVISIBLE INKS ARE MANY
The Two Simplest Are Milk and
Water Chemical Substances
That May Be Employed.

1t is strange that two separate cases
one a military case and the other a
domestic one-should bring the out-of-
the-way subject of invisible ink be-
fore the British public, says the
Manchester Guardian. In more ro-
mantle days (not SO very long ago.
invisible ink was a favorite precau-
ton of sentimental youth-usually,
of course, a quite unnecessary precau'
ton. The two simplest and handiest
invisible inks are milk and water. II
you write your letter with a clean
pen in milk it will dry off quite in"
visibly. But the writing will show up
in a faint brown when it is toasted at
the fire. If you write In water, the
way to make the writing visible is to
sprinkle the sheet with fine coal dust
or powdered charcoal.
There are, besides, various chemical
invisible inks. A weak solution OF
cobalt used as ink remains invisible
until the paper is heated, when it
shows up red. The red can be changed
to green by steaming it or breathing
on it. A solution of salts of lead or
bismuth makes an invisible ink which
shows up black when treated with sui
phuretted hydrogen. Another recipe
is to write in a weak solution of tan
mic acid. When dipped in a bath OF
persalt of iron the writing comes out
black.

Reason and Caprice.

Edmund Burke says: Taking the
whole view of life, 1t is more safe to
live under the jurisdiction of severe
but steady reason than under the
empire of indulgent but capricious
passion" Such wisdom should be
proclaimed these days for the practice
Is decidedly against it. Men are moi
inclined to conduct their lives in &C.
cordance with Severe but steady
reason" but under the influence OF
the very opposite passion. And the
times and customs seem to prepare
men for "%indulgent but capricious
lives" In fact, inventive genius is
largely employed In preparing mo
tives and attractions toward these
capricious lives. If there Is a lee.
ture or a prayer meeting appointed for
a certain night and a banquet or q
dance for the same time, the stream
of attendance is toward the latter.
Between the church service and the
automobile hide the latter Is chosen
too often among people of religious
tendencies. 1t Is the rule Of this
choice that makes necessary so many
social reforms. 1t is the difference
between the steady reason and the
capricious passion, as Burke points
out.-Ohio State Journal.

SUBJECT FOR BILL NYE'S WIT

Question Theatrical People Come

Anybody connected with the amuse-

Hest and most maddening question is,
where do you 60 from here?" Bill
Nye, touring the country with James
Whitcomb Riley, had a great many
%one-night stands to visit, and came to
suffer acutely through the insistent
repetition of this boob query. At last
he wrote the appended verse, which,
it is believed, never found life IN
print:
where do you 60 from here?"
asks the landlord of u hotel.
And where do you 60 from here!"
asks the boy who answers the bell
And where do you 60 from here.
Oh! Lord, and where do you go from

EXAMPLE SET BY TEACHER
Responsibility Of Those IN Charge OF
the Youth Of the Country Is
a Great One.

Few teachers realize the extent to
which theil students, whether n the
primary grades or the university, are
following their examples. 1t Is re-
lated of William R. Harper, well-re-
membered president of Chicago uni
versity, that he was brought 10 a e
ization of his responsibility IN the
following manner:
When he was afflicted with cancer
and knew that there was nothing be
fore him but a hopeless, lingering
illness, he decided that the best thing
to do was to take things INTO his own
hands and end it all. He cOntlded his
decision to a friend of his, a maj VINO
had a broader vision on this point
than the great president himself. he
referred President Harper TO the
MANY students who had been under
his influence and said, Among all
these thousands many will face a
crisis similar to the II which you
face now. Many will reach the decl
sion which you have reached, tor they
will think, 1t is all right; Prexy did
1t. Doctor Harper saw his respon'
sibility at once and said, I'll stick
it out" What a great thing 1t would
be if all teachers were willing to beal
as much as this, in order that thell
lives might be better examples fol
those who may come under their IN
fiuence.
