More daring than the wolves; more

Something to
Think AbOuf

By +. #. WALKER


@ oAIE0NE has said that Charles Z.
- Hughes, the secretary of state, did
not read novels or verse while be was
at the university, and that he was SO
absorbed in science as 10 miss all the
poetry and romance of college life.
To dIsprove this statement the IL
brarian OF the John Hay library at
the recent commencement Of Brown
university showed IN a glass case the
very books that Mr. Hughes had taken
out They included the regular novel
lists that everybody is supposed to
read, and such poets as Tennyson and
Longfellow.
Variety in reading is just as neces-
sary as variety in food.
Some good people did not under
stand this when they objected TO nov
els on principle as frivilous and a
waste of time.
A celebrated man of science of the
latter part of the Nineteenth century
used to find himself losing interest in
his work every now and then. When
this took place he would shut himself
up with great supply Of dime novels
and read nothing else for week. Then
he would 90 back TO his laboratory as
fresh as ever.
On the other hand, certain French
novelist, whenever he found himself
In need Of a mental rest used TO read
the Criminal Code.
Charles Darwin as he grew older
lost all interest in poetry, but found
recreation in novels with good lively
plots that held his attention.
One reason why detective stories are
so popular with all sorts of readers is
because they appeal to the love of
mystery which is almost universal.
1t has been said of Poe that, he
would have made "A good detective be-
cause of his gift for fitting together
criminal mystery. The idea was
that he would have been able to take
criminal puzzles TO pieces as well as
put them together. One side of his
work kept him interested i'm the other.
When boy is ut school or college
his reading Is divided into two sorts
voluntary" and involuntary" He
reads for pleasure and he reads for
business.
AS nobody's education IS ever fin
ished the same division should mark
later life. tsI
Mrs. AsGiiith in her celebrated
DAuibbi0gtabhy" tells how she be-
loaged to d Etort OF society the mem
bers of which agreed to do an hours
serious reaalng every day.
Doctor Jtnihson said that If a man
read any stlliect for an hour daily he
could1notl hdlH becoming "learned." His
own great bhthculty was that he was

she was interested.

THE RED VANS EXAMPLE

A picturesque aboriginal cere-
mony enacted on the shore OF
Penetang Bay. Ontario. a few
days ago exemplihed the peace
which is the hearts desire OF man
kind. Chiefs Of the remnants OF
the once powerful Huron and lro-
quois tribes met in 4 spirit OF
! friendship for the first time in 21l
wears. smoked the pipe of peace,
buried the Ratchet and set off to-
gether on a hunt symbolical OF
their purpose henceforth to pur-
sue the business OF life in con
cord.
The feud that had lasted three
centuries, all but three decades,
began when the lroquois braves
vanquished the Huron warriors
and drove that Indian tribe from
their ancestral domain in what is
now Ontario. liurons and lro-
quois have been bitter foes ever
since; at least so tradition has it.
Like 50 many other hereditary
enernities the world arpHndy ,ithad
been for long a futile thing and
silly. But there it was. there it
might have remained. as other

ion for bringing the hereditary
foes together. In keeping With
Twentieth century concepts. and
ideals. the chiefs of theiIrpqHoIs
and Hurons were reasonalsless Sd
the meeting was arranged, IAe
red chieftains came in full regala.
The central feature of the primi-
tive setting was a birch bark te-
pee in the shadow of which the
peace was made.

suggested the Huron TO the Iro-
quois. Which may be construed
to mean working in harmony for
the welfare of their fellows. Pre-
cisely this is what the peoples OF
the earth wish To do--work in
concord to the common beneht.lt
can be done if the chieftains OF
nations whose skin is not red. but
who too often see red, will bu
follow the example set by simple
Indians at Penetang Bay.

tically unlimited distance. The device
was recently publicly tested here be-
tween two 6OO-mile points and was re-
ported successful.
Contrary TO the present telegraph
system, Mr.. Peterson used an alternat-
ing electric current, allowing a strictly
synchronOus work of the sending and
the receiving apparatus, a higher
speed and an enormous saving of op-
Grating costs.
The system, it is claimed, also makes
It possible to transmit double the num-
Der of words compared with any other
felegraphic system now used, and it
operates automatically from the mo-
ment the telegram, picture or drawing
is received by the operator until it Is
received at the place of delivery. No
new wires or cables are necessary.
The manuscript to be transferred is
placed on a metallic cylinder-some-
what resembling an original wax pho
nOgraph cylinder-covered with a pho
t%Ographic film and exposed to q strong
arc light.
The manuscript is copied on the cyl
inder film, developed and cromograph-
ieally etched into the metal.
The cylinder is then placed o. the
sending apparatus, to which is rams
mitted an electric current going to the
receiving apparatus. When the cylin-
der rotates a needle o OF it, touch
ing every point on the cylinder. When
ever 1t touches the copied letters of
the manuscript 1t causes q short cir
cult, which is transmitted to the re-

produced.

CHICKENS!

Owen Moore is another of his delight
full comedy characterizations will be
the feature p~hotoplay attraction at
the Kenworthy theatre Wednesday
and the patrons of this theatre who
will attend on that date may safely
anticipate a merry evening.
The story is one that has been con-
structed for comedy purposes only,
n it would not be strange if it
achieved as great a vogue as did
"Charley's Aunt some years ago. It's
all about a young man, who in order
to secure an inheritance, pretends he
is married.; the wife of his pal, Percy
Jones, being "the chicken in the
case" The efforts of the young man
to keep up the deception and the
strenuous efforts of his Aunt Sarah,
who thinks the young couple are be-
coming estranged through a bold in
terloper, who is really the young
wife's w husband, create a series of
comedy situations that would bring a
smile to the stolid face of the Sphinx.
Supporting Mr.. Moore, whose role
of Steve Perkins is said to be the best
of his entire career, will be found
Katherine Perry, the famous beauty
who was awarded the Golden Apple
as being the most beautiful girl in
New York; Teddy Sampson, another
talented and pretty photoplayer;
Vivian Ogden, in the role of the
vigorous Aunt Sarah, and Edgar Nell
on, as the real husband of sthe chick
ell in the case"
Victor Herman both wrote the
story and directed the picture, and
it is asserted that he has surpassed
his previous efforts with Mr.. Moore's

THE SALES TAX" is VICIOUS.

big Business" as it is called, is
urging the adoption of a sales tax"
system for raising funds for all gov
eminent expenses now paid by the
various forms of taxes 1t is another
phase Of the Single tax" idea, but in
stead Of making the land a all
taxes it would make the farmers and
the consumer pay all taxes. The
big manufacturing, wholesale and re-
tail firms and corporations would es-
cape paying any at all, if the
sales tax system were adopted.
Here is how it would work
The farmer would be required to
pay a sales tax on every article sold
from his farm, including milk, butter,
eggs, grain, livestock, fruit, etc. for
the farmer is not organized and can
not compel the purchaser to pay any
price the farmer may ask for his
products. Now he pays the freight
on what he sells, for it is deducted
from the price he could obtain for his
products at some distant market,
whether it goes to that market or is
consumed at or near the place of pro-
duction.
But the merchants, the manufacture
ers and others who are organized and
work together for mutual interest,
would continue to do as they do now,
pass the tax, along with other costs
and a liked profit, on to the consumer.
Thus the farmer. who produces and
sells but is not organized, and the
consumer, who must buy, but is not
organized, would AVE to pay all OF
taxes and the cost of keeping up
the state, federal, county and other
governments.
A more vicious, unjust and repre-
