Why Man Swims

1t is strange, isn't it, that almost
every animal, excepting man and
possibly the monkey, knows how to
swim naturally. Others, such as
birds, horses, dogs, cows, elephants,
can swim as soon as they can move
about alone.
The trouble with man in this con-
nection is that his natural motion
is climbing. He has been a climber
ever since he was developed from
the monkey, and when you throw
him into the water before he has
learned to swim, he naturally starts
to climb and as a climbing motion
won't do for swimming, the man
will drown.
This climbing motion is as much
of an instinct in man and monkeys
as the instinct in dog which causes
him to turn around once or twice
before he lies down. just as his fore
fathers used to do ages ago when,
as wild dogs, they first had to
trample the grass before they could
lie down comfortably.-From the
Book of Wonders.

Famous Women
Delilah.

Why did Samson? Many a man
says that, why did II" when it is
too late. Self-reverence, self-knowl-
edge, self-control, these three alone
do lead to sovereign power, sang
Tennyson. Delilah, the beautiful girl
of the book" Sorek (as the original
reads) was seen by Samson as he
swung past, going down to Hebron.
The date of this tragic passion-hour
is 1120 B. c. The Philistines got
this enchanting girl to entice the
secret of Samson's strength from
him. Delilah succeeded in a night
under the purple heavens of the east
where alone the planets and their
Maker were witnesses of the trag-
edy. The reader is urged to study
the magnificent Samson Agonistes of
Milton, and to ponder the story in
Hloy Writ. In the 18th chapter of
the Book of Judges, the real reason
of Samson's recklessness is given
Samson's father had given Samson's
wife to his bosom friend.
