New Vegetable Ivory.

A recent number of the French bull
letin of the colonial Office gives a de-
scription Of new form of vegetable
ivory, which can be used in European
industry in place of the coroso. This
new substance is produced by the kerr
mel of an edible fruit growing upon a
palm of the upper Senegal-Niger ter
ritory, the Borassus ethiapicum. The
kernel is seven or eight centimeters
long and FIVE centimeters broad, thus
permitting the cutting of balls Dr
plates of considerable size to be used
in marquetry, or the making Of domi-
noes, piano keys. buttons. etc. The kerr
mel becomes extremely hard when
thoroughly dried. As proof of this il
is stated that it is at the present mo-
ment being used as building stones for
making of the houses of native chiefs
while 1t is expected that the future
cathedral at Dakar will have tinted
pillars constructed of these same ker-
nels.-Scientific American Monthly.

SUPERFICIAL sTATEsMANsHIP

Senator Harding is reported to
have said in several of his adj
dresses that, if elected, he would
completely reverse the foreign
policy of the United States. This
plank inserted in his platform by
a candidate for President has
such vast significance that il
would be we'll to see just what
this would mean i'll even a few
familiar particulars. For i'll
stance, il would mean:
A reputation of the Monroe
Doctrine. which has been the es-
tablished policy for nearly hun
dred years, including Grover
Cleveland's Venezuela message
"The United States is practically
sovereign on this continent and
its fiat is law"
Reputation of the Spanish
American War and the return OF
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines to Spain.
Reputation Of the policies that
kept us at peace with Europe
Except for the Spanish War; foi
more than hundred years, and
keeps us at peace with Japan
now.
Reputation of the treaty un-
der which we built the Panama
Canal.
Return of Alaska TO Russia.
Reputation of our entrance
into the World War to over
throw German autocracy and
make the world safe for democ-
racy.
Reputation of our refusal tc
recognize the Bolshevik govern
ment.
Reputation OF our policy o.

The true greatness of nation can
not be in triumphs OF the intellect
alone. Literature and art may enlarge
the sphere of its infuNlce: they mag
adorn it; but they are in their nature
but accessories. The true grandeur OF
humanity is in moral elevation. .
The surest tokens of this grandeur,
in state, are that Christian bench
cence, which diffuses the greatest
happiness among the greatest number
and that passIonless. God-like Justice
which controls the relations of the
state to other states. and TO all ths
people committed to its charge

Make the Best of the Present.

Most of us dream of what we might
have been If we had been given a sec
ond chance. If we were honestly given
a chance TO choose another path for
another life, we would come back at
last TO the choice OF better chance
at the life we have lived. Our long
regrets are not over things we had
no opportunity to do. but over things
that we could have done and did not
do. What we need is not a better
chance, but better use of the chance
we have. 1t would not be new line
of life we would choose, but new
vigor and wisdom in the line of life
we have already followed If, there
fore, we do not want to build up re-
grets for old age. we will want to put
as much fineness and devotion into the
life we are living as we think we
would put into another life if that
were permitted us,

The expression 'the goose hangs
high" comes from the southern amuse-
ment known as goose pulling" A
goose, its neck carefully plucked and
well creased. was hung by its feet 10
the branch of Tree. Men on horses
would ride past ar gallon. trying to
catch it by the neck and pull the head
of. The better the goose was in dOdg-
ing. the greater the fun. When the
goose hung high. so the competitors
had to stand in their stirrups, the joy
was the greatest. The whole of this
expression Ia. Everything is lovely
and the goose hangs high"

A rough little pony in coster's cart
stood near mansion in Piccadilly
on chilly morning. A pile of logs for
flrewood was being unloaded and the
pony was enjoying the warmth of a
somewhat unusual loin-cloth flung over
his back. 1t consisted of a handsome
edging of fur attached to a musquash
coat, which was seen TO belong to a
woman who was shifting the wood.
who was coatless while she worked.
So the little rough pony was sharing
what was known year ago as "mu-
milton overalls''-because these hand
some fur coats were the sign and
signature of the girl munition work
ers, whose sudden enormously in
creased incomes enabled them to real
lie the ambitions of their life-a fur
coat as good as you please. And very
handsome they were, and very well
they became the owners-and very
contented the pony looked.

serbians Adopt English Words.

From an 0xonian in Belgrade, writ
ing to the London Spectator. we hear
OF the excursions of English words into
Serbia. Some of them are slightly
Serbified, but easily recognized. For
example, ''aeronlan." budget" 'kIub,' .
uniting" shtralk," "drednot." Trans
port has made IT'S way unamended.
Submarine" has come in from the
French in the form OF "snmaren.' y
Tanks are "tankovi." No interpreta-
ton is necessary of the Serbian form
Of a world word. ''fordovi." What
region on the earth is not full of your
labor These are war words, but
"dientlemanski" entered Belgrade be-
fore the war. So. gs communications
between peoples increase, alien words
of many languages in many languages
are naturaiized.- York Times.

When You Shop

When you shop IL is a good plan to
remember that, after all, the thing
that counts most is that you should
get the thing that fills your need; that
you should find that thing at price
you can afford and that is fair and in
good quality.
From the point of view from the
merchant, one of the most important
things to consider in running store
Is craftsmanship. But from your point
Of view it is the article itsolf that
really counts. If you can get what
YOU want price you like in spite OF
Indifferent salesmanship you are far
better OFF than you would be if you
had made your purchase at a store
whore you found perfect service but
an article that was really not what
you wanted.
So don't be too willing to take Of
Tense at the indifference or stupidity
of the salespeople in the stores. 1t Il
as wrong to judge the store itself by
an occasional stupid salesperson as ii
would be for an acquaintance of yours
to Judge you by the sort of treatment
received a. your door by an unframed
and stupid housemaid.
Some shoppers seem TO be out to
see how often they can run against
poor salespeople, and they make it a
principle never to make a purchase
from one. Really you are cutting OF
your nose to spite your face to leave
store where you feel that you could
get what you want. just because the
salesperson mas given YOU offense.
