THE WORD 4JEHovAH."

its Curious Origin Which, by the Way,
 ls Comparatively Modern.
 An interesting feature in '4The Old Testament In the Light of Today" by William Frederic Bade, professor of Old Testament literature and Semitic languages in the Pacific Theological seminary, is the following explanation of the word Jehovah"
 "The name Jehovah is of recent origin. It was quite unknown in an tiQuity. As c. F. Moore has shown, 1t occurs for the first time sporadically in the fourteenth century. The word arose in a peculiar way. Until some centuries after the Christian cru the text of the Hebrew Scriptures was written with consonants only. The ten with the four consonaats 'Jhvhp AS Hebrew ceased to be spoken tongue. words written eonsenantaiiy begun to present difficulties to readers. This fact led to the invention of sys= tems of vowel points, which were writ. ten under and above the eenaonants.
 Long before the invention ef vowel points 1t had become customary, on ae= count of dread of the name Of the deity, to read 'Adonay' ueFd) whef= ever 'Jhvh' occurred, To indicate this fact the vowels of 'Adenay' were een nected with the consonants 'Jhvh,' the short A of 'Adonay' by regular change becoming 'e' when connected with the consenant J.' Persons ignor- ant of the purpose of the voweis be- gan to read them with the eonsonants, and thus the prcposteroas hybrid 'Je- HoVaH' arose."

Goethe on Books.

It Is with books as with new ac quaintances. At first we are delighted If we find we agree in a general way. if we feel friendly influence upon any of the chief sides of our existence. It is only upon closer acquaintanceship that the points of difference become ap- parent. and then the value of reason able conduct lies not in shrinking back at once, as is often the case with chil- dren. but in holding fast to the things in which we agree and arriving at q clear understanding about the things in which we differ. without on that ac- count wishing to come to an agreement upon them.-Goethe.

Raised Decorations on EssshsIIs.

It Is easy to work out design in relief on aA eggshell. whether the con- tents of the egg have been removed or not. The first step is to draw with a pencil the design or the lettering that you wish to appear on the egg. Make only an outline and the leading points of the design. Then melt small quantity of candle wax in a shallow tin and let it set little. but while 1t is still soft take it out of the tin and spread it over the design on the egg. If there Is my difficulty in getting the wax to hold touch 1t here and there with the heated blade of a penknife.
 Take vinegar enough to cover the egg completely and soak the egg in 1t for a period that may be half an hour or may be an hour and half. accord ing to the strength of the vinegar. At the end of that period take the egg out and peel off the wax The design will then stand up in relief against the rest of the she'll. for the acid of the vinegar will have eaten away the uncovered part and left untouched only that part which the wax protected Youths Companion.

cAcODYL IS NO PERFUME.

 All Vile Drug Odors-

On the Contrary, 1t Has the vilest of All Vile Drug odors.
 The vilest smelling drug known to the chemists is called cacodyl It is a combination of one atom of arsenic with two atoms of methyL It was first made in 1T6O by Cadet de Gassicourt, but Bunsen gave it its name. which has three roots-cac, meaning vile; cd. emitting odor. and yl. substance. the substance emitting a vile odor.
 pr. Douglass W. Montgomery of San Francisco has this to say about it in the Journal of the American Medical Association:
 "Our forefathers imagined sulphur compounds to be the worst smelling things and so. in creating a haies plentifully supplied it with them. In comparison. however. with the produc- tions of modern chemists the sulphur compounds of our forefathers are as altar of roses. and from this one may imagine what substance must smell like when a chemist such as Bunsen would feel impelled to baptize it with the name cacoiyl.
 CacOdyl combined with iron or so- dium-iron, or sodium, cacodylate-is sometimes given in cases of profound anaemia. but 1t makes the breath and skin emit a strong odor resembling that of garlic

MANGLING A WORD.
Why "ComptrolIer" Is Used Instead .
 the Correct "ControiIer."

Why "comptroIIer" Is Used Instead of
 the Correct "ControlIer."
 It is an old story, many times told. that the scriveners centuries ago. igno- rant of Latin. but having heard that iii French "compter' means to count and assuming that as the controller has to do with money he must of course. count money, wedged the false and peryerting letter ''p" with an ''m' be- fore it into a perfectly good and cor rectly formed word.
 In late Latin the word is ''contraro- tulatOr." The keeper of the kings rolls. the payroll and other accounts, was the "rotulator." To guard against the pos sible dishonesty of that official the king appointed an auditor to check up his accounts and called him the icon trarotulator is, the counter roll keeper. From "contrarotulatOr" the word has come into modern languages. always without the offending D."
 In French, Spanish, Italian. German and Russian we have the word ''cOn troll" meaning the keeping or auditing of accounts. and the title of the officer in those languages is spelled always without the ''m'' and the ''p." When our commissioners to the Paris peace conference ill 1898 used the word "con- trol." meaning political control of the Philippines, the Spanish commissioners were puzzled; they thought our repre- sentatives were speaking of matters of finance.
 But the word 'comptroller," with its vicious spelling and implication of a false etymology. is imbedded ill the federal statutes and in the constitution of the state of New York. All the kings oxen could not pull it out against the Boeotian indifference and inertia of those who. if they would, might cor rect the blundcr.-New York Times.
 Happiness consists in activity. It Is running stream and not stagnant pool.-Good.

EnaIand's Greatest Mine Fire.

The most serious colliery fire ever known in Britain was undoubtedly that which broke out in the Tawd val ley mine, near Preston, in 1872. Thou sands of pounds were spent in trying to get the flames under control, but they overcame everything and consumed some millions of tons of coal. A wall ten feet in thickness was built round the affected parts, but the heat cracked the masonry and brought 1t down as fast as 1t was rebuilt. However, in 1897 the river Tawd overfOwed its banks and went pouring down into the mine. No fire could withstand such an immense volume of water hurled upon it, and although the flames extended for 500 yards, they were quenched after having ragged for quarter of century.-London Tt-Bits.

SONGS THAT LIVE.
Stephen Fosters Ballads Won the
 Heart of America.

Stephen Fosters Ballads Won the
 Heart of America.
 Stephen c. Foster, the writer of American ballads, the producer of America's most distinctive songs, may or may not have lived in the. golden age of American music-that each may decide for himself-but it was at least a glittering age. Foster fashioned his songs, sang them and died. They were American. And Foster has had no sue cessor.
 In that day many persons sang and played. Every little hamlet had its singing society. Music was in the hands of the people and for the people and to the people and even of the peo pie Foster composed. His songs have lived "The Old Folks at Home" Nellie Gray" My Old Kentucky Home." Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming and others from his pen have survived many strange and weird twists and turns in the history of American music. They were born c.t of the heart of the nation.
 Fosters name may not be entitled to place with great composers, and musi- cians may turn cOntemptuously away from his songs, but his songs live. That may not make them greater mu sic in the judgment of musicians. but 1t gives them claim to respect. He was a popular" song writer. We have popular" song writers today. Their number Is legion. But there is no Foster among them.-Indianapolis News.

MARK TWAlN'S PILOT DAYS.

A Taste For Fine Clothss and . Plunge
 Into Languages.
 Old pilots of that day remembered Samuel Clemens as a slender. fine look. ing man, we'll dressed. even danditied. generally wearing blue serge. with fan. cy shirts. white duck trousers and pat ent leather shoes. A pilot could do that. for his surroundings were speck- less.
 The pilots regarded him as Il great reader-a student of history, travels and the sciences. In the association rooms they often saw him boring over serious books.
 He began the study of French one day in New Orleans when he discov- cred a school of languages where French, German and Italian were taught, one in each of three rooms. The price was $25 for one language or three for $50. The student was pro- vided with set of conversation cards for each and was supposed to walk from one apartment to another, chang ing his nationality at each threshold.
 The young pilot, with his usual en- thusiasm, invested in all three Ian. guages, but after & few round trips decided that French would do. He did not return to the school, but kept the cards and added textbooks. He stud fed faithfully when off watch and in port. and his old river notebook, still preserved. contains a number of ad- vanced exercises neatly written out.- Albert Bigelow Paine in St. Nicholas.

rinnina In constantinopls.

The tipping evil Is no joke even in this country. But 1t has hardly reach ed the degree of insidiousness marked by this tale from the near east:
 "On the morning of my departure from Constantinople I gave the letter carrier who had brought my letters during my sojourn here half a med shid as tip.
 ''In the afternoon a man came up to me and said: My lord. am a stranger to you. You never received a telegram. But may 1t please you to know that am the telegraph messenger. May it please you to know that 1t was up to me to deliver telegrams to you If sucb had been received for you in our of flee. surely would have brought them to you most quickly. I know you will be just and you will not harm a man who has always been ready to serve you. I cannot be blamed that have never been called upon to be of service to you.

Some Questions With Answers by the
 Writer Who Asks Them.
 Gentle reader. if you are a young man of military age do you feel that you could stand in your place in a squad trench and do your duty as mu- zhiks and other peasants of monarchi- cal Europe have frequently done? My own opinion of you is that you could not, and my opinion has the strength of q conviction. I do not care whether you are a clerk or college professor, lawyer or a laborer.
 Supposing you were advancing in open order of attack and had reached a point where. with your captain killed, your platoon commander wounded. your line, unable to go forward, was lying in the open and your only chance for life was to find the range of the enemy and shoot at him so correctly that he in turn could no longer shoot correctly at you. Would you listen to the orders of your corporal? Would you take the range he gave you, care fully adjust your sight and fire every shot as carefully as if you were trying to ring a cane at Coney Island or make a new step in a dance?
 No; you could not do 1t. and. failing to do 1t. you would be killed by some peasant of the type that you see work ing on the railroad track or mixing concrete for the foundation of the road on which you run your automobile and upon whom you look as hardly human. He is a better soldier than you are Robert R. Mccormick in Century Mag a zine

LURE OF THE EASY CHAIR.
Do Not Let 1t Wean You From Good
 HealthfuI Exercise.

HeaIthfuI Exercise.
 The United States public health service has issued a bulletin against the rocking chair. the "o;d armchair" aboct which poets have woven some of their Irettiest verse: the office chair and any sort of chair so comfortable in form that it invites rcpose.
 Not because germs of deadly sort Turk in the easy chair, upholstered or plain. Not for that reason does the health service of our government con- demn it, but because a man with an easy chair at hand is likely to form the habit of sitting in 1t when he ought to be up and around, taking exercise that he must have if he is to keep well.
 The easy chair is to blame for much of the heart and kidney disease. ap- pendicitis and indigestion which af- fiict the business men of our day and carry so many of them off when they ought to be in the prime of life. These diseases were almost unknown a gen eration ago. when men worked more in the open air. Walking was the thing that kept them well and strong up to eighty and ninety years of age
 But now men sit as they ride to ana from work in motor or street cars, They sit at their work in office or fac tory. About the only so called "eNcr- cise' many of them get Is riding in motorcar It is sitting down" age, and the government warns of Its dan, gers

A Death Iura.

According to tradition, Zenith, the legendary king of Scotland. was allured to his death in most novel manner. Zenith had slain a son and brother of Fennella, who to be avenged ordered Wiltus. famous silversmith, to con- struct death dealing statue of silver. In its right hand the statue held ba- sin and in the left hand an apple of pure gold, both set with diamonds and other precious stones. To touch the apple was to defy death, it being so ar ranged that any one guilty of such van dalism would be immediately riddled by poisoned arrows shot from openings in the body of the statue. Zenith was invited to inspect the wonder. and, as Fennella had hoped, he tried to pluck the precious imitation fruit. When his hand touched the apple he was wound ed by the arrows and died where he fell

MARKINGS OF A HAPPY MAN.
Qualities That Make Life a Joy For
 Their Possessor.

nelF FoSSSSsoT.
 We have noticed the happieSt man many time. He works for his living. and he gets good one. One thing we notice is he is a man of fine habits: doesn't squander cent on liquor. to bacco or betting. He saves his money and is getting ready to buy some prop erty. He loves his home. plays with the children, reads good books and keeps company with his wife. Because of his good habits he saves a little which will give him chance to make an investment.
 And then there is another thing-he is a reliable man. He does good work. He will not smooth over bad work. He Is honest in whatever he does. Every dollar he gets represents just that much of honest labor It is this, large ly, that makes him prosperous and happy.

VENUS DE- MEDIci.
The Finding and the Restoration of
 the Famous Statua

The Finding and the Restoration of
 the Famous Statue.
 You have smiled at the story of the recently rich lady who objected to a statue of the Venus of Milo because instead of a good new one. Do you happen to know in what state of di- liquidation the other famous Venus was found when her remains were unearth- ed in Rome in the sixteenth century The Venus de Medici was discovered along with several important pieces of antique art when the excavation had reached the depth of Hadrians villa. It Is claimed by some authorities that the marble goddess had been an adorn- ment of the original home of the Cae- sars. But 1t made no stir in the art world until 1t had been restored and taken to Florence by Cosimo de Medici The restoration was almost as impor- tant as the work of the artist who modelled and chiseled the lovely figure In the high noon of art before the Christian era.
 The statue has been credited to Gieomenes by some scholars. while others insist that 1t was done by an obscure Greek sculptor as late as the time of Augustus. The work of resto- ration was given over to the father of Bernini, that Neapolitan genius who was at once architect. painter and sculptor and who served two sucb patrons as Pope Urban VIII. and Louis XIV. ef France The elder Der mini. whose talents reflected so advan- tageously on the court of that Medici who was both Duke of Florence and Duke of Tuscany. is scarcely known to fame Yet he took the thirteen frag- ments of marble and restored by means of them the most beautiful wo- man In the world.-St. Louis Globe Damorraf
