Actual steam is not visible. The

collection of fine moisture particles
which are formed by the condensation

ADAM AND EVE.

In working up his oriental ro-
mances, Moore took some pains to get
the true local color. He was. in par
ticular, close student of Hyde. |
do not know whether it was from
Hyde that the poet derived his knowl-
edge of a passage in the Talmud
(Erubin 18a), but these lines may be
quoted to our readers amusement:
"They tell us that woman was made
of rib
Just pickle from corner so snug in
the side;
But the Rabbins swear to you this is
fb,
And twas not so at all that the sex
was supplied
''For old Adam was fashion'd the first
of his kind
With tail like monkey, full yard
and a span;
And when Nature cut off this ap-
pendage behind,
Why-then woman was made of the
tail of the Man.
eff such is the tie between women and
men,
The ninny who weds is pitiful elf;
For he takes to his tail, like an idiot
again,
And makes most damnable ape Of
himself!
"Yet, if we may judge as the fashions
prevail,
Every husband remembers the origi-
nal plan,
And, knowing his wife is no more than
his tail,
Why-he leaves her behind him, as
much as he can"
Of course it was not the "Rabbins"
who said that Adam had tail, but one
particular Rabbi The comparison to
the monkey, and the dimensions of
the tail are embellishments by the
poet.-Jewish World (London).

A BRITISH BULL"
SIR AUCKLAND GEDDES MADE
FALSE STATEMENT - NO RE-
PORT OF THIS HAS BEEN MADE
IN DAILY PRESS.

The London Daily Mail of March 5
thus spoke of the new English Am
bassador to the United States:
eff the report of a statement by Sir
Auckland Geddes is true he seems to
have spoilt his career as an Am
bassador even before it has started.
He has managed to live down many
serious blunders but statement un-
derstand he made to party of Eng
lish and American journalists that the
Sim Fein movement is practically a
religious scheme, aimed at securing
power for the Roman Catholic Church,
confirms the worst fears of his critics.
Americans, whether Irish or not, are
critically watching every aspect OF
our attitude towards Ireland. They
know as well as Sir Auckland that
whatever may be the truth about Sim
Fem, this is not. If the Journalists
have misunderstood what he meant, a
prompt correction may do something
to save the situation. But if Sir Auck
land is going to America with that
view of Ireland we may as well save
the cost of his passage"

A PARIS OPERA
OPERA sUlLDED ON THE LEGEND
OF ST. CHRISTOPHER.

Religious inspiration is the motif of
an opera which theatregoerS in Paris
are applauding and critics are prais-
ing, without knowing whether to class
ily il as an orat0rio with modern eff
ieCts, or return to the operate prin-
ciples of the medieval stage This is
THE Legend of St. Christopher,
which is being presented at the Paris
Opera.
The Legend" is designed. says it's
author, the French poet composer Vim
cent dlndy, to preach sermon and
impQrt sense of Christian fervor
Although this end may not be attained
successfully, the opera represents at
least departure from the round OF
tarCes and musical comedies to which
Paris has long been accustomed.
Nj, d'lndy says that he worked on
the Legend Of st. Christopher for
seven years. 1t is said that arrange,
ments viii be made to present the
opera in New York next autumn.
