The Unity of Life.

There is nothing, i think, that
brings home to one more conclusively
the unity of life. and therefore the
unity of knowledge of that life, than
the attempt to study any particular
subject by itself and confine yourself
to 1t alone. You find very soon that
you cannot do So No aspect of life
can be separated from the rest and
understood even in any small degree
without some knowledge of the rest
of life. No part of life stands alone.
Every phenomenon of life is the re-
suit, not of one or two causes alone,
but of the interaction of innumerable
causes To get near the understand
ing of only one item you must be able
to estimate more or less truly all the
forces that make life, and the objec-
tive of life. AS with the eddy of a
river, to estimate it you must know
not merely the eddy, but much also
of the river its volume and its speed,
the density of its waters, the configu-
ration eff its banks and it's general
direction. The observation of the
eddy only would lead you into the
widest fallacies--The Atlantic.

SCAR MARKS EVERY FACE
Mysterious Affiiction That Is Common
to All the Inhabitants of
Baqdad.

An uncanny. pernicious pest called
the date boir' scars the face OF every
human born in Bagdad, writes a cor
respondent of the National Geographic
Magazine Children invariably have
this dreadful sore on their faces
Throughout the middle east this mys-
ferrous scourge is known by various
names-"Bouton d'Alep," Nile sore,
Delhi button, etc..
Its cause and it's cure are unknown.
First faint red spot appears, growing
larger and running course often
eighteen months long.
White men from foreign lands have
lived years in Arabia, only to have
this boil appear upon their return to
civilization, where its presence is en-
barrassing and hard to explain.
Maybe it was date boils' that job
had! Once a British consul at Aleppo
lost almost his whole nose from one
of these boils. Nearly every Bagdad
native you meet has this date mark
on his face.

IN the East, those strange, nomadic
tribes, the Bedouins.
Their mode of life has not greatly
changed since Biblical times, and to
day they steal cattle and camels, and
their young men steal wives, as was
their wont in Old Testament days.
Indeed, the purloining of cattle and
eamels is considered lawful among
them, and the more a tribe or an in
dividual can enrich himself in this
manner the more their prowess comes
TO be recognized.
These people, however. who live by
thieving and move by stealth, are inva-

GOOD AND EVIL IN EXERCISE
Stair Climbing, Done in the Proper
Way, May Be Beneficial or May
Be Made Injurious

Climbing stairs always has been
thought to be very injurious TO a
woman, vet in many cases if it is
rightly done, 1t may be of real benefit
and gradually strengthen the heart
and shoulders instead of doing actu-
ally the reverse Mount the stairs
slowly with the body erect, the head
and chest high, and allow the leg
muscles to do the work Try this for
a week, instead of the old way OF
bending the back and depressing the
chest, and see how it improves the
general carriage.
A physical culture exercise that is
unrivaled for giving one an erect and
graceful carriage, Strengthening the
shoulders and making them as level
as those of a West Point cadet is done
by this same stair climbing, only in
this case, with the arms hanging at
full length, the hands should be
clasped behind the back. with the fin
gers interlaced and the hands turned
as nearly back to back as possible.
Then, standing very erect, mount
the stairs slowly, and before half the
ascent is made every cell in the lungs
Will have been expanded many times
These exercises are excellent for any
one whose heart is in good condition,
but when this organ is in diseased
state it is we'll to avoid stair climbing
whenever possible.
