GREAT WORK OF TEACHERS
Theodore Roosevelt's Tribute to Their
Services to the Country Surely
Well Deserved.

Moreover, as an incident to your
teachers avowed work, you render
some well-nigh unbelievable services to
the country. For instance, you render
to this republic the prime, the vital
service of matchmaking into one
homogeneous body the children of
those who are born here and of those
who come here from so many different
lands abroad. You furnish a common
training and common ideals for the
children of all the mixed peoples who
are here being fused into one nation
ality. 1t is in no small degree due to
you and to your efforts that we, of this
great American republic, form one peO-
pie instead of group of Earring peO-
pies. The children, wherever they
have been born, wherever their parents
have been born. who are educated in
our schools side by side with one an
other, will inevitably grow up having
that sense of mutual sympathy and
mutual respect and understanding.
which is absolutely Indispensable for
working out the problems that we as
citizens have before us.-TheOdore
Roosevelt, in an address before the
National Educational association at
Ocean Grove, July Z, 1905.

PEARL MOSQUE WELL NAMED
Structure at Agra, India, Admittedly
One of the Most Beautiful
in the World.

Among the most beautiful of Shah
Jahan's sculptured monuments Is the
Pearl mosque at Agra. The entrance
gateway of red sandstone contrasts
effectively with the interior Of white
and blue-veined marble. An inscrip-
ton in letters of black marble states
that this mosque may be likened to a
precious pearl, for no other mosque is
similarly lined with marble.
The Indian influence upon Mahome-
tan architecture of this period is evil
denced in the lotus petal cap decorat-
ing the domes and in the purely Hindu
finals, legitimate Mahometan mosques
bearing instead the simple spire, with
the star and crescent. The foliated
arches come from Buddhist source,
symbolizing the lotus-leaf shaped aura
around the body of Gautama. The
pointed upper foliation Is derived from
the shape of the leaf of the bOdhi. or
pipul tree, under which Gautama at
tanned to enlightenment and Budda-
hood, and is commonly used in Bud
dhist idolatry to indicate the nimbus
around the head.
The master builders Of Mogul days
were chiefly Indians from Bengal. and
since they We're artists and artisans
rather than mechanical workers much
of the Inspiration Of the architecture
of this period must be accredited TO
them.

origin Of Nautical Terms.

What is the origin of the nautical
term dead reckoning?" Perhaps the
general Impression is that the prefix
dead" y so common in technical
terms rented to the ship anddts rig
ging th1t 1t is merely, the mariners
way ofSexpressing himself. There are
"dead{yes." Headlights" dead
wo0d,e "dead-door." ''dead-fat," and a
host Of others. and all SAVIOR more of
the ozone than Of genealogical neces-
sity, But there is a peculiar interest
In the origin of dead reckoning"
which has always been regarded as
one Of the most puzzling terms to
trace. The oId-fashioned method of
keeping the ships log, before the adj
.miralty supplied specially printed
books, was TO use small, loose sheets
of paper, ruled into several columns.
The latitude column being too narrow
to admit the words "deduced latitude"
in full at the head, the words were alb
breviated to "Ded. Lat" "Ded" easily
became corrupted into dead" and
hence the singular phrase for describ-
ing the mariners "deduced" position
on the high seas.-Christtan Science
Monitor.

The WIGS Of constantinopIe.

There was a special assistant to the
French ambassador in Constantinople
years ago whose friends in Paris
wished to play trick on him, and so
they told him to take cargo of wigs
with him 10 ConstantinOple, and he
would make lot of money. The man
bought the cargo of wigs, only to find
on arrival that the people had never
heard of wigs and had no use for them
whatever. The ambassador noticing
that his friend was melancholy, discov-
cred the cause to be the unsold cargo
of wigs. so he told the story to the
grand vizier who told the sultan.
Whereupon the sultan sent an order
to all the synagogues in the city that
all the Jews in the city must wear
wigs. The Jews didn't even know
what a wig was, much less where they
could get one. And this was just the
moment for the possessor Of a cargo OF
wigs, who put them on the market and
made a pocketful of money.
