IDEAS HARD TO ERADICATE
erroneous Geographical Notions That
Have Firm Hold on the Minds
Of Most People.

1t is curious to note with what per-
sistency people will adhere to current
ideas without ever thinking that these
ideas do not, under all circumstances,
denote one and the same thing. AS
matter Of fact, the maximum heat Is
"between" North and South--viz, along
the equator. and 1t is as cold at the
South Pole as at the North Pole. Also
the words North and South are as rela-
tive terms us East and West, and do
not, to everyone, convey the same
Idea.
To make this clear, let us suppose
that A stands at the North Pole and,
turning In the direction of the country
from which he came, feels the wind
blowing in his face. He would, Of
course, claim that this wind was south
erly, and nobody would dare contradict
him, for does not the wind come from
Norway, which is south from the Pole?
His companion, B, however, who stands
little distance further off, let us say
so steps beyond the Pole, on the
hemisphere on which America is sltu-
ated, will just as emphatically assert
that this wind is northern, as 1t blows
from the North Pole. and the snow
fakes 1t carries after having passed
the polar point no longer are directed
toward the North. but the South. There
is no use disputlng; both are right and,
although separated by few steps
only. that which to A is north is to B
south,

SEES LITTLE IN ALEXANDRA
Writer Says Famous Building Ex-
presses Mere Beauty, Without Any
Sense Of Power or vlpor.

The Alhambra Is on the shoulder Of
mountain. 1t overlooks the town,
Bart Kennedy writes In the Wide
World. It was built by the Moors. and
I take 1t that 1t was built overlooking
the town for the usual reason. The
ruling Moors lived therein and they
wished to be In position to give the
nonruling Moors "what for" when they
became too critical. There is lot of
human nature In ruling people just as
there is in ruled people. A beautiful
place, this Alhambra. But to me Its
architecture expressed decadence and
weakness. There was nothing strong
or massive about It. Whether race
expresses truly Its character in archi-
lecture or not Is not for me to say. To
be able to give reliable opinion as to
this would necessitate the living of
life that lasted through couple Of
thousand years. But certainly the Al
hambra did not suggest power and
vigor. Beauty, yes. and also fancy,
but nothing more.
But on the Cuesta de los Muertos
(the hill of the dead), which was out
side the actual palace Of the Alham-
bra, were three massive square towers.
They expressed strength. In them had
lived--centuries before--the Moham-
medan soldiers Of the guard. These
towers impressed me and often went
to see them In the moonlight, for then
there seemed to be In their strength
and power some weird effect.

HELD HIS ART ABOVE ALL
Pension Could Not Induce Beethoven
to Play for Emperor Or
Dukes, 5fs

Bettlna Won Arnim visited Beethoven
in the year 1870. and wrote letter
describing the event In August Of that
year. 1t has recently been published,
observes an exchange. Very different
from her correspondence with Goethe,
when 1t is question whether the lady
is indulglng in fact or fiction, this
letter about Beethoven is serious In
tone.
Beethoven had a "so-called pride
that prevents him playing for the enl-
peror and the dukes, who have in vain
given him pension; and 1t Is the
rarest thing in all Vienna to hear him
play" she says. But he consents to
play for her when she tells him 1t
would be the joy Of her life to hear
him. He seated himself at the piano,
on the edge Of chair, playing softly
with one hand, as though trying to
overcome his aversion to being heard.
Suddenly he had forgotten his sur-
roundings and his thought expanded
into an ocean Of harmony"
She goes on: II got to like this
man tremendously. In everything that
has to do with his art he Is SO com.
manding and truthful that no artist
dares to approach him."

BUILT ON CORAL FOUNDATION
Keeling Island Group, In indian Ocean,
= Mass Of Varying colors Attrac-
tive to the Eye.

An oasis in the blue expanse Of the
Indian ocean Is the Keeling island
group, built inch upon inch of coral.
From far out at sea the ragged outline
Of the islands coconut palms can be
seen, now In forestlike thickness. and
again one tall, solitary palm silhou-
cited on the sky.
Many times this Is all that the ships
passengers see Of the islands. for 0rly
when the winds are low can a ship put
in at the harbor. Ordinarily, heavy
winds send the waves crashing ugainst
reef and beach and make the islands
danger zone instead Of haven scs
mariners. a
Parts of the islands are thick with
matted underground. but below It all is
the coral foundation In the form Of
sand and reefs Of wonderful spreading
formations. The shapes of the coral
growth are fascinating In their variety.
Little Imagination Is needed to see in
them toadstools, oak trees. leaves md
snow crystals. Some are solid rock,
while others are as delicate as the out
shoots of bursting fireworks. The col
ors, too, are like fading fireworks that
leave only suggestion Of yellow.
green and rose.
In contrast to the paleness Of the
coral reefs, the inhabitants Of the
pools and sea dazzle the onlooker with
their scales Of vivid red and green
flashing through the clear water.
Swordflsh and sharks make fishing and
swimming hazardous.
The air is famed by great flocks Of
birds OF the eastern tropics who might
easily claim ownership Of the islands
by reason Of discovery by their ances-
tors. The birds long ago found the
islands ideal for nesting and time has
enlarged the colony, for there are few
human beings to disturb the feathered
owners.-Chicago Daily News.

Somewhat Extensive Err.

A large steamer was once wrecked
because one Of the sailors was named
West.
The vessel was outward bound from
Rotterdam, and the sailor was on deck
polishing some brasswork. Suddenly
the captain called him, and told him
to go below. The second officer on the
bridge heard the captaic Gull out the
mans name, and thought 1t was an
order to change the course of the ves-
sci to the west. He did so. and the
result was that the vessel ran onto u
dangerous shoal. That name cost the
owners Of the vessel the sum Of $780,
900.

Matter Of "Two Evlis."

A Londoner whose business is
coaching stage asplrants tells this
one:
zone day my work was interrupted
by n weak-featured but rather pretty
girl Of about eighteen. She was taste
fully dressed, but had obviously been
crying. She said she was wishful to
adopt the profession Of the stage. Had
she ever played In amateur produc-
tlons? No. Were her parents pre-
pared to pay the feesf She had neither
father nor mother. "Well, what are
you2" he inquired. Then she sobbed.
She was housemaid In the service Of
a crochety old lady. When the pro-
fessor advised her to return to her
mistress, she exclaimed: Il can't bear
'er I'd sooner 80 on the stage than
stand her any longer"

In which 1t is carried on. While the
bureau conserves fish, propagates and
distributes fish and labors to educate
mankind on the subject of fish, 1t also
rescues fish. In times Of flood, when
streams and rivers swell beyond their
banks and overflow wide stretches of
land, myriads Of valuable food fish are
carried along with the water. The
flood passes. the rivers subslde into
their normal courses and the fish are
left inland to perish as the dood-water
eyaporates or seeps into the land.
Gangs Of men under the guidance Of
the fisheries bureau gather the fish
from these overflow lakes, which are
often of great extent, and cast them
loose In the streams or rivers.

WALKING stleks and cansa.

At one time the general use Of canes
or walking sticks was forbidden In
Rome BY imperial edict, except to per-
sons Of patrician rank. thus making 1t
a privilege which came to be popular
among the nobility and eventually q
distinction. The women of that time
carried them also, their richly and ar
tistically decorated canes serving as q
rod for punishment. Of their slaves.
The cane appeared In England as
the badge Of aristocracy In about the
fifth century, but after serving this
purpose for some time came Into the
hands of the humber classes and was
dropped by those Of higher social
standing. 1t was re-established In its
true form by the pilgrims and soldiers
returning from the Holy Land during
the Crusades. and soon came Into pop.
ularlty again.
