WOMAN AND HER BEAUTY.

Woman is the master stroke of
beauty. Woman is the jewel in the
crown. No chisel ever carved such
lines of softness; no painter ever put
such luster in the eye. Nature mold
ed cliffs and gave us tWilights, gave
us the horizon in the east and west;
gave us the flowing, shimmering river
that travels toward the sea; let the
moonbeams glimmer on the tranqsil
ocean; gave US flowers with their
fluffy petals, some soft and snowy
white, others tinted all the colors of
the rainbow. Yet when all has been
looked upon, when all the landscapes
have been viewed with wonder, man
turns back to something stronger,
turns back to that which soothes and
heals, back to that which satisfies the
eye and heartstrings-wo the
browning glory of all revealed.

OLDEST LIVING THING.

Towering giant among giants,
the oldest living thing that connects
the present with the dim past, males
tic in it's mien, it's dignity and it's
worldwide experience, the General
Sherman Tree" is the patriarch of the
Sequoia National Park of California.
1t was already 1000 years old
when Christ was born, says the Ma
tiOnal Geographic Magazine. In the
age when the known world was rock
ing in the throes of the Trojan wars
and the time that history tells us
marked the exodus of the Hebrews
from Egypt, this greatest of Sequoia
gigantea was flOurishing sapling of
some 20 or 80 feet in height, and
truly under the especial care of the
Creator, Who held it safe from the
lightnings of His wrath as He did
from the attacks of earthly enemies.
The General Sherman" was dis
covered in 1879 by James Wolverton,
hunter, and named by him in honor
of Gen. William T. Sherman. 1t tow

A TOWN IN THE AIR.

1t would undoubtedly be peculiar
sensation to live on top of a mush-
room. If the mushrooms were of gil
gantic proportions and we're planted
so as to overhang the sea, the expe-
rience would be very similar to that
of living in the town of Ancoma,
which is three miles south of the
Mesa Encantada in Mexico.
The strange mushroom-like rock on
which the town stands is a splendid
specimen of fantastic erosion, having
overhanging sides nearly four hun
dred feet high. The top of the rock
is comparatively level, and is about
seventy acres in extent. It is in
denied with numerous great bays, and
is notched with dizzy chasms. The
greater portion of it overhangs the
sea like an immense mushroom, and
the strangest part of the affair is that
it has town on top.
The town belongs to a past civili-
cation. 1t is one of the most perfect
specimens of the prehistoric Pueblan
architecture. With inconceivable Ia
Dor this town in the air was built and
fortified for the safety of it's inhab-
itants. 1t was reached by a mere trail
of toe-holes up the stem of the mush-
room. The age of the town is not
known. But it was already old in
1910, when the first explorers visited
it and wrote an account OF it's won
ders.

ONLY SALT, BUT

A grain of salt is tiny particle,
but it is capable alone or in company
with few of it's brothers and Sis
ters, of performing any number of
useful services, of which the follow
ing are a few:
Coarse salt and bits of newspaper
put in bottle and shaken up with a
little water will clean the bottle.
Damp salt put on burns will kill
the pain.
Rinsing the mouth with a little
salt and cold water will keep the
teeth in good condition.
Dry salt and brush will take dust
off velvet, plush and heavy embroid-
cry that cannot be washed.
Add a pinch of salt to starch. 1t
will keep the irons from sticking.
Rub salt on the griddle and it will
not smoke
A little under the tongue will stop
nose bleeding.
Salt on fingers, when cleaning
fowls, meat or fish, will prevent slip
ping.
Salt thrown on a coal fire when
broiling steaks will prevent blazing
from the dripping fat.
Salt as a gargle will help soreness
of the throat.
Salt in solution inhaled helps
cold in the head.
Salt water is good to clean willow
ware and mating.
Salt in the oven under baking tins
will prevent scorching on the bottom.
Salt and vinegar will remove stains
from discolored teacups.
Salt and soda are excellent for bee
stings and spider bites.

The great bulk of Chinese works,
aside from the Confucian classics, is
historical Or literary, the latter being
mostly essays, short poems, or cri-
tiques. There exists also vast Bud
dhistic literature and very many Tao
list works.
Novels are not even classed as lit
erature, although famous ones exist
and some of them have been trans
lated into European languages. There
are also many famous dramas, some
dating from the Yuan dynasty, but
these, too, are excluded from litera-
ture proper by Chinese photographers.
The historical records of the Chinese
are of vast bulk and represent a con-
scientious and painstaking record of
the political and sociological expert
ences of the oldest civilized nation
on earth. In close connection with
these records proper we should con-
slider the vast number of geographic
treatises and especially the so-called
gazetteers. These latter are official
publications issued by the empire,
province, district, or even township,
and treat not only geography and
topography proper, but also the antiq-
uities, natural and manufactured
products, and even the biographies
of famous men, population, taxes,
astrology, marvellous happenings, ETC.

OLD BLOCK PRINTS.

Printing from blocks is said to have
been invented in China in 592 A. D.,
during the enlightened reign of Yank
Chen, the founder of the progressive
but short-lived Sui dynasty. Printed
books, however, asserts a writer in
the Oriental News and Comment, did
not compete with manuscripts until
the middle of the tenth century. From
that time block printing developed
very rapidly, resulting in a great
cheapening and wide diffusion of
books and the consequent rapid de-
cline of the copyists trade. No doubt
the rapid dissemination of learning
this entailed had much to do with
the great intellectual progress made
in China during the Sung dynasty,
from go to 1880 A. D., which has
been called the "protracted Augustan
age of Chinese literature
Disregarding the manuscript works
of the great Tang dynasty (618-907
A. d., which were doubtless tenfold
more numerous and more important
than the contemporaneous literary
works of the whole western world, the
printed books of the Sung Yuan and
the early part of the Ming dynasties
up to the middle of the fifteenth CEN
fury have no counterpart at all in
Europe. They existed in countless
thousands of Volumes In 1406 the
Imperial Ming library contained print
ed works to the extent of more than
100000 chuan (books) and more than
twice as many manuscripts, and al
ready many printed works of the
Sung dynasty had been lost during
the disorders incident to the pro-
tracted wars with the Mongols. I'm
doubtedly more books were printed
in China than in all the rest of the
world up to the middle of the seven
teenth or the beginning of the eigh-
.teenth century.

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
BOYS THAT SUCCEED.

"a new boy came int our Office

chant to his wife at the supper table
He was hired by the firm at the re-
quest of the senior member, who
thought the boy gave promise of good
things. But l feel sure that the boy
will be out Of the office in less than
week."
What makes you think so?" in
quired his wife.
Because the very first thing that
he wanted to know was just exactly
how much he was expected to do"
Perhaps you will yet change your
mind about him"
Perhaps l SHALL" replied the mer-
chant, "but do not think So"
Three days later the business man
said to his wife: about that boy you
remember | mentioned two or three
days ago. Well, he is the best boy
who ever entered the store"
How did you find that out?"
''In the easiest way in the world
The first morning after the boy began
to- work he performed very faithfully
and Systematically the exact duties
assigned to him, which he had been so
careful to have explained to him.
When he had finished he came to me
and said: Mr.. -, have finished all
the work. Now what can | do?'
Il was little surprised, but l gave
him q littln inh Of OWL
all about him until he came into my

That settled it for me. He was the

who was willing and volunteered to
do more than was assigned to him.

REAL HEROISM.

/ like the man who faces what he
must
With step triumphant and a heart
of cheer;
Who fights the daily battle with
out fear;
Sees his hope fail, yet keeps unfal
tering trust
That God is God,-that somehow
true and just
His plans work out for mortals
not a tear
Is shed when fortune which the
worlds holds dear
Falls from his grasp-better with
love crust
Than living in dishonor; envies not
Nor loses faith in man; but does his
best,
Nor ever murmurs at his humber
lot;
But, with smile and words of hope
gives zest
To every toiler. He alone is great
Who by life heroic conquers fate

WHERE MEN WEAR FEATHERS.

Among the strange tribes of men
about whom little is known are the
Chamacocos of the region about the
Upper Paraguay river. Although the
ChamacOcos wear but little clothing,
they excel in the art of making per-
sonal adornments from the feathers
of birds.
Their country abounds with birds
of the most beautiful plumage, includ-
ing parrots, toucans and trogans,
whose feathers are dazzling in color;
rheas, with gray plumes; musk ducks
of a glossy black color, egrets with
feathers of pure white and spoonbills
of delicate pink blue.
All this wealth of color and grace
full plumage is combined by the Cham
acocos in most artistic manner, &C
cording to the Los Angeles Times"
Some of these savages walk their for
est glades in colors more brilliant if
less ample than any Woman's dress
maker could produce.

ENCOURAGING TO DuLLARps.

Like Newton, Herbert Spencer in
his schoolboy days showed no apti-
tude for study. Hugh Elliot, his biog-
rapher, says of him that che was very
backward as boy in the ordinary
subject of children's lessons.
Morally he was extremely disabedient
and contemptuous of authority" At
thirteen he found the discipline of
his school more severe than he cared
about, and he ran away home to Der
by again, walking forty-eight miles
the first day. Yet as a man, with
out money, without special education,
without health says his biographer,
"he produced eighteen large volumes
of philosophy and science of many
diverse kinds, published variety of
mechanical inventions. and on end
less other subjects, great and small,
he set forth a profusion of new and
original IDEAS

THE GOAT GIRL.

Maybe he'll take you-he has a
good car for climbing the canyon"
All l had in my purse besides my
return ticket was one dollar and
half. Georgina had made sure /
shouldn't be extravaganza! l had
check-book, of course, but | was re-
serving that to use in paying for the
goats. | told the driver frankly just
how much l could pay, but | might
have saved myself the humiliating
admission, for his fixed price was
only $3.50 an hour, and he thought he
could make it in that time. The ripe
barley was dancing on the foothills
in the sunshine, and there were
acres and acres of the greenest green
you ever saw-and along the road
sides were yellow tidy-tips.
IF we come back this way | should

do you know the wild lilac-the
buckhorn?" he asked over his
shoulder. Il think we can find some,
if you like. 1t is in bloom now"
He had a nice smile and big voice
and l looked at him again. 1t is no
unusual thing in California to have q
Yale or Harvard man supply you
with gas at a filling station, or to
have your gardener talking classical
English to you over his hoe-and
there's always a story back of it, a
sad one usually. But this man was
Californian, if l knew the signs-a
native son, probably, for he was
strong and brown and good natured,
and he gave you a feeling of infinite
leisure, which comes, of course, from
there being no hurry in the seasons
and that you can make garden" at
any old time, and get your spring suit
when you like.
We hunted up the wild lilac and
lost our way; and he said it was his
fault and wouldn't be counted in the
hour. | told him by now l was goat
hunting, and he said the only goat
hunting he had ever done was at
Catalina and it took him a week to
bring down one. And then, as we
suddenly. faced a rocky flank of the
canyon that was like the sleeps of a
Swiss goat dairy, we came upon the
goats as pretty as deer! There was
small cottage with a sloping roof
clinging to the hillside that might
have been a Swiss chalet-and my
heart thrilled. How much went, with
goat-hunting! We drove in and wait
ed for the woman in coarse skirt and
heavy shoes to come up. 1t was just

There were twenty-one in the en-
closure, none over a week old, and
they were frisking about-well, just
like kids. They nibbled at my sweat

mouthed my hands, rubbing their
furry little heads against me.

AS THE CHILD GROWS.

When you cut into the tender bark
of young tree, you can scarcely de-
tect the cut with your eyes. But
when the sapling grows larger, Ghe
bark spreads and with the tree grows
the size of the cut The knife is long
since broken and the hand which
welded it is in the grave, but the fis-
sure is visible at distance, as long
as the tree stands. This tender sap
ling resembles the children whom our
Saviour has entrusted to your care.
All that children hear from you and
observe in you effects their souls at
that age like the cut into the bark
of a young tree. You may not notice
it, but, as the child grows, the good
or bad which you sowed grows, and
when you are resting in your graves
that child will bear upon its forehead
the mark, be it curse or blessing,
which you put there.
