A Saying of the Kaiser

H. +. Din a discussion it was en-
phatically denied by German that the
Kaiser IN speech to his soldiers had
ever used the words generally attrib-
uted to him, "Act like the Huns" or
words to the same effect. Could you
tell me the exact words and on what
occasion William ii gave this brutal
order?
1t was IN the year 1900. at the time
of the so-called Boxer rebellion in
CHINA. All European powers and also
the United states sent relief troops to
China TO protect their ambassadors and
suppress the rebellion. At the depart
ure OF the German troops from Ham
burg. July y, the Kaiser delivered an
address IN which, among other things.
he said:
when you encounter the enemy in
CHINA he must be beaten. No pardon
shall be given. No prisoners shall be
taken. Like the Huns under King
Attila, of whom legend still to-day tells
US IN Europe. you must make your
selves name in China, so that no
Chinaman will ever dare to attack a
German
That the Teutons were only too eager
to obey their Kaiser's command was
shown By the German Social Democrat
organ "Norwaerts," which soon after
published so-calied "Hun Lettersr-
that is, letters from German soldiers
on the atrocities committed in China.

Centre, Lieber, declared in the Reichs
tag that there were also in Germany

Chyist's Relations

F. F.-Will you please decide AS TO
whether Christ had brothers and sis
ters?
To judge from the passages Matthew
xii. Al. as. xiii. So, So; Luke vii. 10;
St. John vii. 3, ,. 10. Christ undoubtedly
had brothers and sisters. These pas
sages are, however, contradicted by
others. from which We learn that the
pretended brothers os Christ were only
his cousins. Thus, according 70 Luke
vi, 10. and John XIX, %, James WAS the
son of one Alpheus, or Cleophas. and
Mary. the Virgins sister. From Mat
thew xvii, 56, and Mark Ky, 40, we
learn that Joses. or Joseph. was
James's brother, and so, according to
Luke Vi. Is, was also Jude In other
passages the fourth pretended brother
of Christ is designated by the Jews as
the brother of James. Jude and Joses.
1t is also claimed. in explanation of
this theological puzzle, that the Jews
were wont to apply the term brother
TO cousins. to relatives in collateral
line, and even to mere friends Genesis
xii. 1920. The view that the above
mentioned persouages were but Christ's
cousins. and not his brothers, is held
by Iertullian, Orgen, Ambrosius,
lrenaus and. in fact, by all the Catho-
lie Church. also prominent Protestants
tGrotlus, Calvin, etc.) share in it.

still high"
Secretary of the Interior Lane has
just said that the hazard among rail
road swtchmen is greater than the
proved war hazard in Europe. The
actuaries in the War Risk Bureau
would not base a new table on any
empirical formula Of that sort. As
Tor the private companies. they ant;c-
pate "a deadly certainty of gigantic
losses" in the war.
So great are their fears that thew
are quite willing that the government
should relieve them of the hazard. Not
a few companies had war clauses in
their policies which the soldier-policy-
holders arc now discovering to their
dismay. Others have made the war
risk premiums prohibitive.
Certainly the war risk hazard NAV
we'll be regarded as entirely specula-
tive, seeing that the critics Of premium
loadings take such violent issue with
peace premiums. The actual peace in
surance mortality experience is claimed
by the critics TO be only 60 per cent OF
the American Experience Table. These
American table premiums are calculat

Low Origin Of European Dynas-
ties

$. II. Is it not q fact that most of
the European ruling families are of
low origin?
Those who have ever studied the
genealogical history of the European
dynasties know that most of them are
OF rather low origin. Nearly all have
at least one ancestor who by no means
sccptre, and beyond whom they can
not trace their ancestry. An instance
is afforded by the Archdukc Franz
Ferdinand. the heir to the throne of
Austria, whose assassination was the
direct cause of the present war.

IN France a barber of the name of Ba-

Whist

K. Din how many different ways
can the. tifty-two cards be distributed
among four whist players 50 that every
one gets thirteen cards. In other
words, what is the number OF all pos
slble distributions?
The number of all possible distribu-
tons rs 53,64f quadriliions and 737.765
trillions and 477.792 billions and $780,
237 millions and 10000. The follow
ing illustration may give AN idea of
the immensely of this number: If on

elusive of all mountains and oceans.
Whist tables could be so placed that
each table together with the four play
ers should occupy no more space than
one square metre 1887 square inches =,
and If they should play whist inccs-
sanity, each game consuming only five
minutes, it would require more than
a thousand million years before every
possible distribution of the fifty-two
cards could be realized.

forms should be introduced last in
these little lessons.
What else is there with which little
children's hands can be Kept occupied :?
First Of all, sand. Just turn the chill
drcn loose in pile or table of sand
with a spoon, pail, cup, or anything
with which they can dig or shovel, I
personally do not like to have sand in
the house, but if you have a suitable
trouble, An old kitchen table turned
upside down with the legs cut short
and put on the other side makes a good
liable for sand. A piece Of burlap or
denim placed under the table keeps the
sand from being scattered over the
house
With clay simple little cradle may
De made, The child first rolls piece
INTO ball, cuts it in half with a string
One Of these halves forms the lower
part of the cradle The other he cuts
IN two, using one piece for the top
and remodellng the other into q "ball
for baby"
Birds nests with eggs can be made
with clay; also apples, oranges, cups
and saucers, and even animals may be
attempted. Plasticine is the best kind
OF clay to use, as it is easily handled
and is always ready.
Cutting and Drawing
For little children, before they are
OLD enough to use scissors, tearing
paper is an engaging occupation. Tear
piece of old newspaper into an OBJ
Tong shape; 1T may be any size, about
Two by four inches, we will say. By
1oidlng this in the middle it will make
a little tent. Again, fold in thirds. one
chair. Turn both ends down for y
taole. The child can tear paper into
trees, ball, doll babies and MANY
other simple shapes.
When the child is old enough he can
begin to use scissors. but be sure to
provide n pair with blunt points that
cannot possibly hurt him. These will
afford endless hours of amusement and
profit. Have you found that che cuts
papers all over the hoor?' OF course
he does but use this occasion to teach
him ncatness. Let him have his own
little waste basket ard he will delight
in picking up the papers
Have him cut pictures from old maya
zines and paste them into a book made
from MANILA wrapping paper To make
the book take any desired size of pa
per, fold several sheets in half and sew
them together along the crease. A
pretty picture might be pasted on the
front page. or the child could draw
one on it. This viii take many days
work. but all the time he will be learn
ing many lessons in patience, concen-
tration, neatness and accuracy, and
will be developing artistic talent if he
is apt at drawing. IT, in his cutting,
he comes to Il picture that has story,
tell it to him. Do not critlciso his
work, as this may discourage him, but
see 10 it that he does the best he can.
