superioritx Of the Past.

We hear from the best authorities
that the classics are not studied az
they used to be. This does not sur
prise us, because it has been equally
true of every age. For instance, Bish-
op Berkeley, discoursing In 1744 ION
the virtues Of tar water" and other
things that came into his mind. said
In these free thinking times many an
empty head is shook at Aristotle and
Plato as well as at the Holy Scriptures.
In these days that depth Of
that old learning is rarely fathomed. "
This reminds us Of the political debate
In corner grocery where one Of the
village sages remarked, "Jimson is not
the man he used to be-" and another
responded, mo. and he never was
Independent.

When rhsrmoms..r. Differ.

Why does weather bureau Their
mometer show lower temperature in
hot weather than the thermometer at
the corner drug store? asks the Popu-
lar Science Monthly. When discrepan-
cics exist they are due chiefly 20 the
fact that the official thermometer is
installed in a wooden cage, where 1t is
open to the air, but screened from both
direct sunshine and the heat reflected
from surroundi lg buildings, etc. Only
under such conditions does a thermom-
eter measure accurately the tempera-
turc Of the air. A thermometer In the
sunshine becomes much hotter than
the air around 1t, and its reading sim
ply tells us how hot the instrument Is,
not how hot the air is. In large cities
the weather bureau thermometer is Of
ten installed on the roof of high
building, where the temperatures differ
somewhat from those prevailing at the
street level. The object sought In this
arrangement is to obtain a record of
the natural temperature OF the locality
in general rather than the artificial
temperatures Of the city.

Riaht For the Fjrst Tins.

One winter a masquerade party was
given at New York. at which practi-
cally all the great musical lights in
the country were present. Very few
knew who any Of the others were, but
In some way Josef Hofmann, the ia
nous pianist, knew one Of the dis
guised men to be a leading musical
critic In the city. During the evening
the latter, grasping the hand Of the
pianist, said:
Il don't know who you are, but this
hand strikes me very much as the
hand Of pianist"

"and 1t Is the first time l have ever
known you to be right in a musical
criticism"
And as no one unmasked during the
evening the critic is still wondering
who said 1t.

How "a Find Fault.

1t is not difficult to find fault,
because there is so much of it lying
around. That's where the difficulty
comes In. There is no honor or dis
tinction in finding fault that anybody
else can find and everybody else has
found.
If you want to be a success at fault
finding you must branch out on fresh
lines, use new and ingenious methods
and find fault that has never been
found before. Where is the honor In
finding fault with your wife's biscuits,
or with the fact that dinner is late, or
other such daily occurrences2 But
only let some budding scientist find a
modicum Of fault with the inexactitude
Of the isothermal lines as evidenced by
the cross currents of the Marian
canals. and he is In fair way to ac-
cumulate unto himself both fame and
fortune.
In brief, then, it is with finding fault
as with everything else-be not COM
monplace.-Life.

Political regeneration must start In a
quickening Of the civic conscience.
Men in larger numbers must begin to
take deepened interest in political
policies and programs. The three
places which should be kept In the
minds eye evermore are the city hall,
the state capitol and Washington city.
What the representatives OF the people
are thinking and saying and doing
should be closely scrutinized and scru-
pulously judged. When our newspa-
pers pass out of the semi-barbaric stage
Of newspaper development they will
devote less space to accident and Cos
sip and crime and lay before the pub
lie day by day in ampler fullness the
doings Of our aldermen, our assembly
men and our congressmen.-Wo mans

Ruled Grouse,

Civilization is abhorrent to the ruffed
grouse, king of American game birds.

where the wild grapes and winter

clumps Of laurel offer security from

mighty trees supply roosting places.
There is no prouder bird in appear

majestic in flight. The hunter who can
find him and after finding can make so

itself through the forest, and in an in

the Italian infantry hung on like
ieeches and night fell with the foes
within few yards OF each other on
the banks of the river
In the morning the fight was renew
Cd on greater scale than ever. On
rising ground just across the river the
enemy brought up a light gun and
started TO shell the weary Italians.
That gun was marked down by our
British sunners, and in a few minutes
shells were bursting all round il. Tho
gun was moved nearer to the river.
Just as they started TO move IL direct
hit was registered by the British gun
ners. and the enemy gun and team were
lifted right into the air, coming back to
cartii as nothing more tangible than a
collection Of fragments OF horses, hu-
man beings and gun metal
The Italians decided on one last ef-

the enemy, who fought with the cour-
age Of desperation. In the struggle
that followed men forgot everything
hut their determination to conquer, and
they wreStlcd and struggled with each

many cases, they fell in the river lock

overpraise the courage Of some of our
artillery and nursing detachments.
From an Italian officer Of hIsh rank
heard tho story, told With batcd breath,

mand Of youngster who had only
arrived from Wooiwich the week be-
fore.
This battery was engaged in cover
Ing the Italian retreat towards the
rave line. The enemy were pressing
hard and the retirement was likely 10
become a debacle. owing TO the fact
ihat the Austrians had stolen a march
on the Italians and were on the point
OF turning their flank. Between the
Italians and disaster there only inter

inexperienced commander. for tho rest
of the officers had been killed in the
first desperate fight.
