Powers declared was peach.

cess. A resident of a small village in
the north of Scotland paid business
visit to London and called on a mer-
chant who, unknown to him, had once
made a stay in his native place. In
the course of conversation the visitor

other to exclaim, surely you come
from Glen McLuskie?" The assertion,
however, was denied. Presently, to the
merchants surprise, another Glen Nc
1uskie expression was heard. my

Sham Wisdom.

The Sophists were body Of teach
ers in dncient Athens during the
fourth and fifth centuries B. c., who
gave instruction in any or all Of the
higher branches of learning. Although
they were not a philosophic sect and
held no doctrines in common, the
Sophists were nevertheless skeptics
and maintained a belief Of uncer-
tainry of all particular knowledge
and, in fact, IN the impossibility of all
truth. Their two leading representa-
tfves were Protagoras and Gorgias.
The Sophists were charged with
bringing reasoning into contempt by
casting uncertainty over the most
obvious truths and in consequence
were ridiculed and denounced by Aris-
tophanes, Socrates and Plato. Arts
totle defined a Sophist as "a man who
makes money by sham wisdom"

far better natural executives and Or

household running smoothly, provision

Thus Spake Zoroaster,

Pollute thou not my spirit; keep it pure,
And let thy pathway be the way Of truth,
For truth is loftier than an earthly crown,
Yields honor and nobility to kings,
Raises the lowly born to Virtues throne.
Pay fervent homage unto natures laws
And all the wondrous works Of God ad-
mire,
The oceans that reflect the dying sun,
The mountains where We place departed
friends,
The stars, the skies, the earth, the waves,
the air.
And these last do thou evermore keep
pure,
For from the earth spring forth the need
ed fruits;
The balmy air contains the breath of God !;
The waters that we drain support all life
So from pollution keep all these secure.

ELECTRICITY.
Some Facts About This Wonderful and
Puzzing Medium.

Some Facts About This Wonderful and
Puzziing Medium.
Here are some Of the known facts
about electricity that viii enable those
who know nothing about it to under
stand how it behaves. 1t must be I'M
derStOod that no one knows what cleo
tricity is. Only through its behavior
can we arrive at an idea of its nature.
The following facts are condensed from
an article in the Electrical Experiment
ter:
All substances, from the heaviest
metals to the lightest gases, are cleo
tric. but they differ widely in their
electric qualities. Electricity is called
positive when it exists or is excited
in any body in an amount in excess
of the amount natural to that body.
1t is called negative WHEN it exists or
is excited in any body in an amount
which is less than the amount natural
to that body. All electrical phenomena
in nature depend upon the tendency of
electricity to find an equilibrium be-
tween its positive and negative states.
Electricity resides in all substances
and is, perhaps, an essential ingredi-
ent Of their conditions. so every change
in their state, whether from heat to
cold or from cold to heat, from a state
of rest to a state Of motion, from solid
to liquid or to aerifOrm, or vice versa,
or whether substances combine chem
ically or are chemically separated-in
every change the electrical equilibrium
is disturbed, and in proportion to the
degree of disturbance is the force eX-
erted by electricity to resume it's bal
ance.
Electricity seeks to gain it's equilib-
rum by passing through substances
that are favorable to it's diffusion.
These are called conducting or nom
conducting, according as they favor or
oppose the passage of the electrical
current.
Among the conductors are metals,
charcoal, animal fluids, water, vege-
table and animal bodies, fame smoke
and vapor. Among the nonconductors
also called insulators-are rust, oils,
phosphorus, lime, chalk, rubber, cam
puOI, Hill Ule, pOICcldul, uIy SdSeS duu
air, wool, silk, glass, transparent
stones, wax and amber. Some of these
become conductors when wet.
When electricity in considerable
force, seeking its equilibrium, meets
with insulating bodies intense heat and
light are produced, in the evolution Of
which the electric force becomes ex-
pended. When the electric force is
checked in it's course by an insulator
spark is emitted if the current be
strong. When currents pass toward
each other along wires at the ends of
which charcoal points are placed and
these ends remain in contact, the cleo
trical communication is uninterrupted
and no light is emitted. but the instant
the charcoal points are separated a
layer Of dry air, nonconductor. is
interposed, and the electricity in fore
ing it's way through that nonconductor
evolves intense heat and brilliant light.
Such is an arc light
