Our ancestors did not live. work and
prosper Ia an industrial age They
were an ugrarian people, living from
the earth, producing oulv little more
than they consumed Metals were to
them as jewels are 10 us. A Roman
soldier retained his sword through life
and transmitted ii for use to his de-
scendants. The factory system. In
which the labor element is fraction
In productivity compared with what
capital produces through machinery, is
less than 100 years old. The United
States consumes today about sixteen
pounds of copper per capita per an
mum, while in the entire continent OF
Asia the consumption OF copper Is only
a fraction of a pound per capita. This
is because Asia is not an industrial
country. 1t is in the position that the
whole world was In thousand years
ago. and If Asia grows industrially
the demand for copper and other met
ais will be such as to tax even the
present resources OF the world. VII

Difference In compIexions.

The difference in the compilations OF
people is due to the varying amounts
of pigment or coloring materials In
the cells OF the skin. Very light peo-
pie have very little pigment; very dark
people those with dark eyes and black
hair, have Il great deal of this coloring
material IN their cells A great many
people are neither light nor very dark
They have less than the dark complex
ioned people ana more than the light
eomplexioned people. When the hair
turns gray 1t is because the pigment
has disappeared. AS this is due to the
loss Of this coloring material, dark com
plexioned people turn gray sooner than
light complexioned people. The struc-
ture of the skin showing how these
cell are made In layers can be seen by
examining the skin with a microscope.

In the waters OF the Red sea the
cessation Of the engines on steamer

every passing vessel is subjected to
two days OF almost intolerable heat

Water Birds.

Water birds, singular as 1t seems,
are the only ones whose skins never
by any chance get touched by water.
So long as they are alive and long
after they are dead they float with an
air chamber all round their bodies,
cunningly contrived of waterproof
feathers closely overlapping each 9TH
er. Thus, in sense, water birds may
be distinguished from all others by
the fact that they never wash, though
we can hardly blame them for that,
because If water could penetrate be-
tween their feathers the poor things
would never be dry

Macaulay lived to publish only four
volumes of his History Of England,

This volume Is included in all the later
editions of Macaulay's History Of

history of the American Revolution.

F0RET0LD HIS OWN DOOM.

Lose His Life at Sea.

boding of an accident at sea. So much
was this the case that he never cross

had specially made for him In Egypt
before he made his famous advance to
Khartum
Though 50 often on the sea and an
excellent sailor, he detested sea trips
and never felt comfortable on board

affected his sight
Another curious point was that while
he always acquired cnrios in any part
of the world IN which he might be. he
took care never to allow his purchase

When Lord Kitchener was in France
81 few months before he lost his life
at sea off the Orkney islands he was
visiting the British front There he
met his friend, the naval Captain
Testu de Balincourt, then on service
at Dunkirk, whom Lord Kitchener ask
ed to be his special aid If he should
need one later during the war.
Lord Kitchener told his friend how
a heavy shell had burst close to him
while on this visit, but added, THAT

THE GREAT WHITE PLAGUE.
Women Teachers Have Good Reason
For preadina tuberculosis

or Dreadin9 tuberculosis,
That teachers are especially prone to
tuberculosis Is the statement made by
the bureau OF educational hygiene of
the city OF New York. This department
says that this disease is 20 per cent
more prevalent among teachers than
among others Of corresponding sex and
age and that about half of all deaths
among women teachers Is caused by
tuberculosis, and this In, spite OF the
fact that teachers belong to u better
hygienic grade than the general aver
age.
Strenuous, nerve taxing work that
causes physical exhaustion and nerve
breakdown IS given as the main cause
Terman states that -four hours OF ac-
tual teaching represent about eight
hours of ordinary office work" What
is probably the second cause is lack
OF sufficient rest and regular exercise
in the open air.
Speaking along this line, the state
board Of health says: The wan, tired
look that usually marks the teacher,
especially about the close of school, is
too often condition of serious conse-
quence. 1t may be just tired, run
down condition or case OF 'wornout
nerves or both, but these are predis.

or more than others
Unless the teacher is wise" saws
the board and as quickly MS possible
oyercomes this tired feeling and re-
gains her usual state of health and
vigor she subjects herself to an open
risk against tuberculosis as we'll as to
other diseases.
What the wise teacher will do Is
to avoid ovcrwork aud nervous strain
and see that she gets sufficient rest
daily AS we'll as daily exercise I'm the
open air. This wornout condition that
is too often the beginning Of n long.
sad story is easy TO prevent To pre-
vent It should be the teachers first

Did the Tibetan 5uddha.

Did the Tibetsn Buddha.
At the entrance OF the Iamasery at
Kumbum are eight large monuments
which contain the ashes of eight
Buddhas Long years ago, at the he
ginning Of the Ming dynasty. after
hard fighting the Tibctans we're driven
back from Chinese territory which
they had overrun for hundreds OF
miles. When the victorious Chinese
general reached IIumbum he sent for
these eight Buddhas aud said to them
You can read the future. Can YOU
tell me when YOU are going TO die?"
One OF them. shrewd enough to under
stand the generals mind, said, TO
morrow" NO" said the general; at
will be today. And it was.
Quite number of temples and
buildings make up the lamasery. The
chief temple, which is dedicated to
Tsong Kaba, the great reformer OF
Tibetan Buddhism, has a roof OF gold,
vartously conjectured as being from
one-eighth of an inch to half an inch
thick. Inside is large image OF
Tsong Kaba, said by some to be OF
gold, but it is probably overlaid with
gold. The temple threshold Is covered
with planks, and we saw many poor
deluded people prostrating themselves
In worship there Around the main
building are many large prayer wheels
which are kept well on the turn by the
devotees to obtain merit. - Christian
