Proper View of Life,

Why is it, l wonder, that the little boy almost always imagineS that out side of home is to be found the larger liberty? Why do young men fondly dream that wonder, always wonder, is to be found business opportunity? Why does the dissolute man conclude that. outside the common virtues of society, he is to find the larger life? For you, my son, will sometime find that your largest liberty was in the old home, where, if there was autllOr- ity there was also deep and abiding ioves and you, my friend, will find that others succeeded in your home town, while you failed in the world 1; and you, my libcrty-loving man, will most surely realize, that in the cofn- mon virtues of the simply good life is to be found what you seek in the by-paths of the world. Find the wealth that lies everywhere about you. prac- tice the virtues that you know. Cher. ish the love that is yours now.s Value the friends that you have known; and in the superficial you will find the profound, and in the simple things the things eternal.-St. Join's Bulle- tin

Figuring CoIors of Metals.

A method by which numerical values for the cOlors of metals has been ob- tained and described recently in q for eign contemporary. The metal sample is polished with emery, and is then photographed through blue grass screen. The time of exposure, time oe development of the plate temperature of the developer and all other condi- tions must be reproduced exactly in order to obtain comparable results. The density of the resulting negative is measured in Sanger-Shepherd densometer, and the result calculated to scale in which the color value for silver is 0 and that of copper is 5O The results obtained show that an increase of coloration in the metal does give higher "color figure" but the method can detect no difference between pure and Standard" silver silver 92.5 per cent. copper 75 per cent and is only just sufficiently sensitive to distinguish between German silveys having respectively 15 and per cent of nickel.

Need More TraInIno.

This is what one college president says in an address: "With the mul- tiplicity of subjects 1t is only to be expected that some anxiety may be felt as to the results from present day methods of teaching. ! must confess there is some need for this sugges. tion of anxiety. Perhaps the pendulum has swung too far, or we may have discovered the correct scientific metE- od of dealing with the subjects taught In the elementary school. I feel con vinced that training is not receiving it's fair share of attention. There was much wastage of time in the past, but the old-fashioned grinding was not without its good points, one of which %as the cultivation of the faculty of sticking to task until 1t was known."

Original St. Sophia.

One of the most interesting of Sa- loniki's famous 22 churches is St. Sophia. Like it's greater homonym of . Constantinople, the Nationa! Geo. graphic Magazine observes, it is a domed basilica, and it was long con- sidered to be provincial copy of that great original. As q matter of fact, the Saloniki church is the original, having been built hundred years or more the earlier at the end of the fourth or the beginning os the fifth century. The church has suffered dis astrously by fire, earthquake and restoration. but the original lines of the structure remain, as well as the pillars and beautiful capitals of wind- blown acanthus, and two fine frag- ments of mosaic. The principal mosa- lc, an Ascension, with decorative green trees between the standing figures, lines the great dome. It is supposed to date from 645, though the figure of Christ in the center is older still.

Story of Atlantis Island,

Plato tells the story Of the great island of Atlantis and puts it's exis- tenee 5000 years before his time. His location of it is about half way be. tween the western projection of Africa and the Gulf of Mexico. Its civiliza. ton was supposed to be very advanced and it's powerful armies were said to have penetrated Africa as far as Egypt The whole island, according Ao this legend, was engulfed by the sea sn a day and a night. Another story says that great earthquake destroyed the island. The legend was ascrbed 90 Egyptian priests. and on some old Italian maps Atlantis is placed to the westward of the Azores. Among some tribes of South and Central America there is the legend of a vast cataclysm which eng2:ifed great extent of'land. Eminent scientists have found notll- fng impossible in tbe existence at some time of a great Atlantic island, but the story of Atlantis is generally regarded as a myth.
