GOOD OF COMPANY MANNERS
Obviates Arguments, Harsh Language,
Criticisms and Other Features
in Ordinary Home Life.

There isn't any trouble in the home
when there is company in the house.
Everything runs smoothly, as a rule,
AYERS the Columbus Dispatch. The
children are better behaved, regard
less of what mother says about it;
father is more patient. There is no
quarreling among the children-when
there is company. Everything is clean
er, and more orderly, and voices are
lowered, and correct language is used
Which is to say, wouldn't it be a
blessed good thing to have company
manners" in the home all the time? To
have the breakfast pass off as quietly !;
to have as little harsh language; to do
away with the usual family criticisms
wouldn't it be glorious if we used
company manners" whether there is
company present or not?
1t would be an awful strain for a
while, to be sure. The whole family is
under a strain when there's company
in the house. But the general effect
would justify the strain. There would
come time when it wouldn't be any
strain at all; 1t would become habit.
Table manners would be improved,
conversation would be more rational,
criticism would be less bitter, dspo-
sitions would mature with the sweet
ness of ripened fruit that has grown
in the sunlight.

cELIBATEs IN LARGE NUMBER
Seventeen Millions of Class In United
States, Many Being inferior to
Married People.

"There are 100000 celibates in the
United States, according to a state
ment which has been going the rounds
of the press, after originating In
magazine article on the sex question"
says the Journal of Heredity. EXAM
nation of the census schedules for
1910 indicates that this figure includes
all males over twenty and all females
over fifteen.
"a calculation based on such age
limits is misleading, but the actual
facts are quite striking enough. Per-
sons thirty-five years of age or over
are relatively unlikely to marry, and
it seems fair to base computations on
that age. They show, then, that there
are nearly 100000 unmarried men in
the population, and about /, 250,000 I'M
married women. There are about l.
100000 unmarried women between the
ages of twenty-five and thirty-four,
and a considerable part of these are
certain never to marry.
'The celibacy of these millions is,
from a eugenic point of view, not
wholly to be deplored. While the num-
Der includes many potential fathers
and mothers of a desirable character,
1t is probable that, on the whole, these
lifelong celibates are eugenically infe-
rior to the married population"

-lGHTs OF SHINAGAWA BAY
physical Phenomena in Japanese Wa

Countless AnimaIculi.

Strange lights hover over the waters

ocked bays is a natural phenomenon
hat has attracted the attention of the
scientific world. A new and curious
spectacle made its appearance in Shi-

IF pale green lights shone in the placid
waters and attracted thousands of spec

News states.
The savants of Japan are giving
much attention to this curious freak
Of nature. One college professor
Iikened the exhibition to the innum-
cradle lights off the coast of Chikusen
and Chikugo in Kyushu. The latter
lights, however, are of a yellow-red,
orange color, whereas those in Shinag-
ava bay were pale green.
Doctor Kishigami of the college of
! agriculture in the Tokyo imperial uni
versity collected a quantity of water
from the bay. He has declared that
the light is caused by countless ami
malculi. He describes these insects
as gymnogyniums, belonging to the
class Flagellata. Each measures one
twelve-hundredth of an inch and has
an alimentary canal. These insects
| must have been always present in the
waters of that bay, but an excess of
vegetable matter in the water so fat
tened and stimulated the animalculi
that they became unusually luminous.
The learned professor cites the appear
ance of the same phenomena at Ham
burg in 1880, since which time no
record exists of it's recurrence until
lately. The insects live at the bot
tom of the sea and come to the surface
on rare occasions for oxygen.

HOW ONE SHOULD USE MONEY
Worth Of Pennies, NickeIs and Dimes
First Value Wise Man Can
Place on Wealth.

"Any man, in order to achieve real
success, must have the right ideas
about money. If he hasn't the right
ideas about money, he is not solid in
character, observes a writer in the
American Magazine A man may easily
be happy, successful and highly re-
garded on 81 800 dollars or less a year !;
but, If he is, 1t Is because he knows
how to handle those 81 800, and real
ICES the power that is in each of those
$500, and keeps in sight the fact that
It takes 100 cents or 20 nickels, or 10
dimes, to make each one of those ST.
800.
ION the other hand, man may
have an annual income of $4,000 and
be neither successful nor happy nor
highly regarded. If this is true of him,
1t is because he has not the right ideas
about money.
Here is the thing that applies to my
experience and to every mans: Money
is the symbol of worth and power, if
your money is handled correctly. IL
you regard money as constructive
thing, something to be used beneficial
ly for yourself, your family and your
community, something with which to
build up and produce Improvements,
you are on solid ground; nothing can
shake you, nothing, outside of earth
quakes and fires, can ruin you finan-
cially. Let me put it this way: The
use a man makes of his money after
he has got his hands on it is the meas
ure of his worth"

TO TRAIN CRIPPLED MEN
FOR NEW OCCUPATIONS
Red Cross Opens School to Help the
MANNED In Battle for Existence.

The American National Red Cross
has established In New York city q
school for the training of crippled men
in trades or occupations In which they
can engage In spite of their physical
handicaps. The school is known as
the Red Cr0ss Institute for Crippled
and Disabled Men. A gift of over
$4,000 by Mr.. Jeremiah Milbank of
New York made possible the establish
ment of this institute.
The facilities of the institute will
also be at the disposal of the Govern
ment for the rehabilitation of crippled
soldiers and sailors.
The activities of the institute, which
is already under operation, include an
employment bureau for crlpples, indus
trial and commercial training classes
for disabled men, and departments of
scientific research and popular educa-
ton. Members of the Institutes staff
have been engaged fer the past six
months in studying the experience Of
the European countries in reconstruct
ing their disabled soldiers.

CHEESE DIET IS WHOLESOME
One Pound Of the Food Supplies More
Than Twice as Much Energy as
Same Amount of Steak.

Too many people use cheese merely
as an appetizer, says the Scientific
American In commenting on a recent
bulletin of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. According to this
bulletin and to the universal practice
In the great cheese-produclng countries
of Europe, cheese Is one of the most
valuable of foods and a most satisfac-
tory substitute for meat.
A pound of cheese supplies more
than twice as much energy as a pound
of fowl or round steak and almost
twice as much protein as the same
amount of fowl or ham.
Contrary to the opinion Of many,
cheddar or "store" cheese is not usu-
ally indigestible and constipating. Elk
tensive digestion experiments conduct
ed by the department have demon
strated that more than 95 per cent of
the protein In cheese Is digested and
that 30 per cent of Its energy is avail
able. Even when eaten in large guam
titles and for long periods, no case of
indigestion, constipation or other dis
turbance was observed In those who
ate 1t. One person who ate cheese as
the chief source of protein and energy,
eating an average of 9.27 ounces daily
for more than two years, did fair
amount of muscular work and kept in
good health.

OLD ToMBs OF PATRIARcHs
Cave Of Maehpelah, Bought by Abra.
ham for a Burying Place, Has
Stood Ravages Of Time.

The tombs of the patriarchs in Jeru-
salem, the cave of Machpelah, which
Abraham bought for "a possession Of
a burying place." Is still In existence.
For forty centuries It withstood the
ravages of time and men, relates a
writer.
1t Is situated in the town of Hebron,
10 miles south-southwest of Jerusalem,
and sheltered from PROCLAMATION by a
Mahometan mosque that rises above 1t.
The tomb contains the whole patri-
archal family, with the exception of
Rachel. The cave is divided into an
upper and lower compartment. Only
the upper compartment is accessible to
the priest In charge Of the mosque,
but he only enters it In times of great
calamity, and for the sole purpose of
praying. AS to the lower compart-
ment, where repose the illustriOus ia
theirs Of the Jewish nation, they re-
manned completely closed until the
year 1862, when, for the first time,
King Edward VII, then the prince
Of Wales, together with Doctor Stan
ley, the dean Of Westminster Abbey,
and two other friends, were granted
admission.
The six tombs are arranged synmet-
really in rows of twOs; seventh, In
the wall, is believed to belong to Jo-
seph. Abraham's tomb, which has the
form of coffin with shelving ridge,
is about eight feet high, and Is set In
the cemented stone and marble. 1t is
covered with three gold embroidered
green carpets, which are the gifts of
: the emperor Of Constantinople, Ma
homet II, the conqueror Of Egypt, Selim
) II, and the Sultan Abdul Medjid.

Courtesy Was Wasted.

There is such a thing as wasted
courtesy and one encounters 1t almost
every day In the crowded subway or
elevated trains, observes a New York
correspondent. Recently man was
riding in a jammed train and when 1t
stopped at the Forty-second street sta
ton there was an thrush of passen-
gers. Among them was a richly
dressed woman, who led a boy OF
about ten by the hand. She stood be-
fore misunderstanding man who oc-
cupied a seat. With a touch of his
hat he arose to give the woman his
seat, when the boy broke loose from
her and jumped into the. vacant seat.
The woman made no attempt to take
the seat for herself and remained
standing. What was worse, she made
not the slightest acknowledgment Of
the mans courtesy.

Measuring High Temperature.

Tin, which melts at about $50 de-
grees Fahrenheit, has been applied to
the measurement of high temperatures
In the same way that mercury, melt
ing at 38 degrees below zero, is used
for measuring ordinary atmosphere
temperatures. Instead of being placed
in q glass bulb with closed tube, says
the Nebraska State Journal, the melted
tin is contained in graphite bulb hav-
ing an open tube, and readings are
made by lowering into the tube a
plunger of metal with high melting
point. When the plunger touches the
tin, an electric circuit is closed, CIV
ing bell or other signal, the position
of the plunger showing the tempera-
ture. This new form of pyrometer
may be used in either of two ways
~ to give the temperature at any
time by sliding down the pointer until
the electric signal is set off, or (2)
to announce when any predetermined
temperature is reached by setting the
pointer at the proper number of de-
grees on the scale. AS the melted tin,
like melted mercury, is found to ex-
pand at very even rate, the indica-
tons are held to be notably accurate.

Old Horatius Flaccus of all the an

Ienal Witticisms.

Stories from the law courts are apt
to be good, legal wit being noted for
its dryncss. But this story claims no
particular merit, except as showing
the usefulness of a ready wit, observes
the Christian Science Monitor. The
counsel for the plaintiff was delivering
an impassioned address. He was
somewhat weighty in person, and hap
pened to be leaning on very old
chair. In the middle of the torrent of
eloquence, the chair gave way and the
barrister lay on the floor in the midst
Of the wreckage. He got up and, I'M
perturbed, pointing to the broken chair,
said: "That proves the strength of
my argument" The court smiled
broadly, but laughed outright when the
opposing counsel promptly replied !:
''The learned counsers argument may
be all that he claims for it, but it fell
to the ground"

The life of plant varieties grown

forms, is very short, notes botanist.
They soon pass in slightly different
forms and the process is constantly
taking place. So That in a few years
a named variety is quite unlike the
original, even though a direct descend
ant. Everything grown from one orig
inal seed is soon broken up into many
divergent forms, and in some cases
this takes in the first generation.

The process of drying as means of
preserving food for storage possesses
great advantages over canning and
cold storage, while employing practi-
cally every advantage obtained by
those agencies, says a food specialist.
Dehydration greatly diminishes both
the bulk and weight of the material,
making it both easier and cheaper to
store and transport. The food value
is concentrated, while at the same time
preservation is secured by the removal
of the water.
