SIX SIDED SNOW CRYSTALS.
That Is Natures Law, but Why IL 10
So Science Cannot Explain.


Snow crystals obey an immutable
law Of six. They are six sided jewels
or six pointed stars. They never an
Swer to the law of four or five. Snow
is crystalliZed water, and water always
crystalliZes in six sided forms. Why?
No one ever will know. There Is no
more apparent reason for the siXnesS
of cryStalliZed water than there is for
the monOclinic priSms of sugar crys-
tails. Water and sugar and the COM
pleX minerals which make the granite
rock all follow laws which are utter
" Interchangeable. but which are, as far
as we can see. without any special rea-
son. 1t is as profitable to speculate
why the chlorophyll of, vegetation Is
green and why the blood of animals is
red.
The whiteness of the snow is under
standable. 1t is due to the fusion Of
prismic cOlors scintillating from the
countless surfaces of minute crystals.
Human science comprehends this. 1t
also cOmprehends the fact that snow
is poor conductor of heat and thus
prevents terrestrial radiation and keeps
the earth and the things in the earth
snug and warm under the white blan-
ket which is softer and finer than
lambs wool or eiderdown. Science
knows why snow is white and why 1t
is benefcent, but it cannot explain the
law of six.
1t is well that snow cannot be al
together explained. 1t is one of the
earths most beautiful mysteries. 1t
would lose something in beauty were
it to lose all its mystery.-Cleveland

Walk For Health,

4 state board of health advises:
Take time to walk-or make time to
walk. The yernicious habit of hopping
on d trolley car 10 go block or two
robs many OF tie necessary health pre-
serving exercise they should have.
Walk for health
The recommendation is sound, but
why should those who ride in automo-
biles be left out: The inveterate users
Of motorcars need to be told to walk
more quite as much as the rest of US
Nowhere is the riding habit easier to
acquire than where an automobile is at
beck and call. Even the workers who
deem the trolley car necessity would
often be advantaged by keeping their
nickels in their own pockets and there
by inviting more physical and mental
vigor. We are all sinners when 1t comes

Pot and Kettle.

There is proverb much heard now
adayS that we never could see the sense
Of, The pot can't call the kettle black. "
Why not. we should like to know? The
kettle is black. 1t ought to be called
black. Who has better right to speak
with confidence about the faults of the
kettle than the pot, which has for years
hung on the same crane and inhaled
the same smoke? If there is anything
that would make the pot seem less
sooty in our eyes it is giving us clear
reflection of the image of the kettle.
Shall no one point out blackness any
where unless he knows himself to be
speckless? Would the pot rise in our
estimation if it followed the custom
of its critics and said, THE kettle Is
white, as white as l am?'-Independ-

They Don't LEND" II Because Ii 10 .
Business Transaction.
Why is it banking houses always
loan" their huge sums Of money, nev-
er by any chance lend" them? Lend"
is the true verb, while "loan'' was ex-
elusively the noun. How came it about
that ito loan" has uniformly supplant-
ed Ito lend:'
The purists make great fuss about
this. They insist that the stupid and
untaught financial world has foisted
upon the language substantive verb
when no new verb was needed, when
the ancient and established usage was
fixed in the signification of Ito lend
But prior TO the modern development
CT business enterprise when money
was lent it was bestowed upon the bor-
rover either for temporary use with
out compensation. as a mark of favor
or patronage. or by the professional
money lender who, taking advantage
of persons in eYtremities of need, de-
manded uSuriouS interest. This Anglo
Saxon verb today retains its ancient
connotation. When it was coined the
productive powers of money We're un-
known and the wealth of rich men
was locked up for safety and kept out
of the channels Of commerce.
Nowadays, by devices of credit and
rapid intercommunication, it is kept
constantly working i'll productive en-
terpriSes. Immense loans are made, no
longer to relieve the necessitous and
the improvident. but to stimulate in
dustry and to enable the borrower as
well as the ioaner to reap profit in his
transactions. Money is loaned in this
sense. 1t is not lent-New York Times.
