near here, gave his life to save that

Calendars Long in Use.

The Egyptian calendar, fixing the
length of the year at 365 days, was
adopted little more than 1900 years
before Christ. OF course it took a
pretty high civilization, which in this
case means an old one, to arrive at
such a calendar. Scholars agree that
some Chaldean inscriptions date from
fifty to seventy centuries b. c., and
no one pretends that the Oldest OF
these mementoes have been found

manner in which they pronounced it
resemb!ed to a degree the snarling OF
a dog. 1t is the last letter that most
children learn to pronounce. They
use 'w' instead, saying "vewy" for

Chinese invariably use "l' In the

Europe's Meat Eating.
(BOstOn JOurnaD.

Russia follows Germanys example In restriction of the meat diet for civilians, and again our friends, the vegetarians, - are encouraged to pre- dict a permanent reduction in meat consumption. Vegetarian habits ac- quired during the war will endure be- yond and forever, say those who get breakfast lunch and dinner out of the garden.
 While there is much to be said on the side of vegetarianism, however, and much more to be said on the pal ates ability to forgive and forget, a more reasonable prediction is that the vegetarians- y-request will try to make up for lost time when the war is over They will eat meat if they can get it, and their cOnsciences will trouble them no more than their stomachs. The theory of cOntinu- ing habit of non-f1esh diet is based upon an assumption of human strength; the theory of a resumption of meat eating is founded upon the stronger premises of human weak ness-the love of variety.
 For variety's sake, if not for health's sake, Europe will return to it's roasts and its sausages, it's gou- lash and pot-pies and all those other luxuries of peace, even as Stevenson s poor Ben Gum made a drive for

An Ideal Home.

My home should be the place where Love is My Love should be in my home and my home in my Love, for where love is, joy cometh and peace abideth. There I try not to correct what others do in, my home, but Ntd correct myself and to be so near and dear to the rest that they will follow me.
 Next to being lovely I think my home should be where there is leisure enough to express my love. There fore my home must be simple, as | try to avoid useless adornments and even discard many beautiful articles because they take time and need care and because it Is not met that love should be spent for that which is not needful
 And next, I think my home should be place where Joy is, therefore I play with the children at home and with the dear mother of the children and we have our music and our amuse- ments and our little jokes ard our pet names and our calls to one anoth- CT in my home. I do not bring my business troubles home; and when anyone else at home has a trouble that she cannot lay down and get rid of, l take it from her and bear it aWay-and lay it down.
 God does not create for us our homes for I think that He gives us nothing of value but opportunity but He gave us power to make a home that is heaven on earth for all the Household of Love
 That is what home shold be aiYd heart and hand and brain are given to Us that by their diligent usc we make and keep it so. f. ....

Yes, There's Lot of It!
(Collier's WeekIy).

The New York "Times' published the other day an account of an inter- view with his Excellency John Bon zano Titular Archbishop of Mitilene and Apostolic Delegate to the United State. The interviewer finally asked the apostolic delegate to tell some thing of his opinion of modern Amer ican literature as he had observed it during his stay of four years in this country. The learned father looked carefully down Madison avenue fon 2 moment and then gave his verdict:
 Of modern American literature, would say that I am convinced that it is plentiful.

 And, besides, there IS a quite con- siderable portion of the European population which is rot losing it's habits of flesh eating. The soldiers aren't fighting on pea soup and prunes. They are eating more meat than they ever had before. The beef exports from this country testify to that, even without the reports of the battlefield dietary. In 1914 our ex- ports of meats of all kinds were 455, 100000 pounds for the fiscal year; in 1915 exports had risen to 885,0O0,- 900 pounds; in 1916 to 1889 900O,00O.
 Europe may not be eating more meat than usual, but at least we can see that the meat habit is being sus- tained.

"HECKLING."

It is just beginning to dawn on many people that the business of making a member of the United States Su- preme Court a candidate for Presi- dential honors is very dangerous. In the incident in Toledo where the Re- publican candidate was "heckled' and called upon to answer embarrass- ing questions because of his decision while Judge has opened the eyes of the American people. They do not want their judges held in disre- Spect by anyone. When a man is robed with the ermine of the bench, when he is guarded by the sacredness of the highest judicial office in the land, he should be ever kept from the contaminating influences of the politi- cal arena. Before this campaign is over, if there are many more episodes like the Toledo case, the leaders of great political parties may look twice before they ask a member of the Su< preme Court to step down and take a hand in their battles. It would be better to lose a hundred elections than to suffer the dignity of the Su- preme Court to fall into disrepute, as it surely will do if every mob in the country is given to "heckling'' former member upon his public ap- pearance.
