TWILIGHT varIe. With Latitude.

Twilight Is the diffused illumination
of the sky which Immediately pre-
cedes sunrise and follows sunset. When
the sun sets below the horizon we are
nol at once plunged into total dark
ness. There Is an intermediate period
of partial and slowly increasing dark
ness. That period Is twilight. 1t Is
caused by the reflection of the sun
light by dust and particles of water
vapor In the upper atmosphere. The
same phenomenon occurs just before
sunrise, and. to distinguish 1t from
the evening twilight, Is called dawn.
Dawn begins and twilight ends when
the sun Is about eighteen degrees be-
low the horizon, and consequently
their duration varies with the latitude
and season of the year. The higher
the latitude the smaller the angle at
which the suns path meets the hor-
izon, and hence the longer 1t takes
the sun to sink a distance of eighteen
degrees below the horizon. In the
tropics twilight rarely is longer than
thirty minutes, while in the north of
Scotland about the middle Of summer
there are several nights on which twi-
light fills the entire interval between
sunset and sunrise.

Historic Stratford-on-Avon.

The history Of Stratford-on-Avon
may be traced back for a period of
LOO years, and as the birthplace Of
Shakespeare is has become a classic
center visited annually by some 80, 900
people. The Guard house, where
Shakespeare was born; Shottery,
where he courted Anne Hathaway
Charlotte park. once the seat Of Sir
Thomas Lucy, whose displeasure
Shakespeare incurred by stealing
his deer; the Shakespeare Memo
rial theater. on the banks of the Avon,
and Shakespeare's monument, are all
places worthy Of visiting in the old
market town of Stratford-on-Avon.
The Shakespeare hotel, situated in
the center Of the town and close to
the Shakespeare Memorial theater,
was erected In the Fourteenth CEN
tury. A few doors from Shakespeare
hotel Is the Harvard House, which
was the early home Of the Harvard
family, founders of Harvard univer.

Life and Death Unity

Life is a state which follows upon
death. Death is a state which pre.
cedes life. Which Of us understands
the laws that govern their succession,
The life Of man is the resultant of
forces. The aggregation Of these forces
is life; their dispersion, death. II.
then. life and death are but consecu.
tive states Of existence, what cause
for sorrow have I?
And so II Is that all things are but
phases Of unity, according to II. A.
Giles In translated Seems From Chi
nese Literature" What men delight
In Is the spiritual essence of life.
What they loathe is the material cor
ruption Of death. But this state of
corruption gives place to that state of
spirituality and that state Of spiritual
ity gives place in turn to this state
Of corruption. Therefore we may say
that all in the universe is comprised In
unity, and therefore the Inspired
among us have adopted unity as their
criterion.

DESIRED TO TAKE THE VEIL
Oldest Daughter Of Thomas Jefferson
Attracted by Quiet Life Within
Convent Walls.

Martha Jefferson, Oldest daughter
Of Thomas Jefferson, third President
Of the United States, came near to be-
Ing catholic sister. She was a stu
dent at the school Of Abbaye de PAN
themont at the time the French Revo-
luton was In progress. The daring
and fiippant infidelity Of the French
frightened and disgusted her, and she
clung to the calm and serene life Of
the convent with all her strength. Her
mother had taught her in the ways
Of the Church of England, but the sur
roundings at the school overreached
this, and she decided to become q
nun.
She wrote to her father asking his
permission to adopt the veil. No
answer came for several days, and
then Jefferson appeared in person.
He greeted the girl with a tender
smile. interviewed the abbess, and
then came out and told the girl to
pack her things. Her school life
was ended at that moment, and the
next day she was introduced to So
ciety and made the mistress Of her
fathers household. She declared years
afterward that neither she nor her
father had ever alluded to the sub
tect by single word from that
day On.

WATER "cURES" OLD BELIEF
Fountains Have Been Considered
Pools Of Healing.

When you drink mineral water do
you do II because you believe In its
curative properties or because you are
superstitious2 Or both?
Extraordinary virtue has been at
tributed to the waters Of pools and.
streams by nearly all peoples Of all
times. Among the modern Greeks to-
day we find the remnants Of the old
BELIEF that the water from the Grotto
Of Macedonia would cure all those
who drank II they entered the cave

pitcher In the other. filled the pitch

hind, going silently and not turning
back from "being scared by the noises
that ensued." And not only In Greece,
but In England. there are many spots
where the bushes around certain
pool win be hung thick with shreds Of
clothing left by those who came to be
cured.
1 According to modern Greeks the
mineral springs are under the protec-
tion Of the Nereids, and the virtue Of
the water depends upon It being drunk
In silence and with appropriate sacri-
nee. Old Church Of England canons
dating ba k to HOP forbid the wor-
ship Of wells without the bishops per-
mission, attributing the custom to
heathenishness and a survival of the
worship OF the fountain as a symbol
OF the source Of life. 1t was pointed
out then that the naming Of wells was
as old as the days Of the Patriarchs;
that Abraham and Isaac are both
spoken Of in the Bible as having done
80, but that wOrshipping them was a
different matter.

How to Know Poetry.

We literates have been taught to
read poetry, and taught also that II
is highly commendable to enjoy 1t. In
order to know what kind Of poetry
ought to be especially enjoyed, we read
other books, written by critics. In or
der to understand what the poetry
that ought to be admired means, we
read other books by professional
grammarians. BY the time we have
finished this preparatory reading, we
are somewhat confused. We are in
doubt as to what poetry actually is,
and how II differs from prose. In this
predicament we fall back on the print
er. II every line begins with a cap
ital letter, we assume that 1t is po-
etry.-Samuel McChord Crothers In

Leone. Jane and their mother were
returning from France. where they
had helped. in the way women did, to
win the war.
On board the same steamer was
captain Of infantry, who had been
wounded severely in the leg and for
that reason was one of the first to get
invalided home when the battle-line
guns became silent. The captain
walked with limp, which would al
ways be with him, but 1t didn't detract
from his good looks or charming per-
sonality.
The captain and Leone carried on
an outrageous Irritation. Perhaps 1t
was reaction from the serious busi-
ness that had just been finished; per-
haps they would have flirted anyhow.
Be that as 1t may, flirt they did,. He
was only twenty-five and she twenty
one.
Every morning on the voyage they
met on deck and spent the greater
part Of the day together. He made
love, more or less violently, and she
permitted 1t. OF course, he was only
fooling, she thought; and so was she,
was what she told herself.
The last night at sea the moon was
full, and their talk waxed more SEN
timental than usual. 1t became time
for both to retire, and he pleaded that
she tell him her real name. Yes, 1t
had been an outrageous filrtation-the
kind where you don't tell your real
name.

"Just a minute" he begged. won't
you give me some little keepsake
something by which to remember this
very pleasant journey?"
She laughed, and from her waist de-
tached tiny gold pin and handed It
to him. She had broken the clasp on
It only that morning and had pricked
herself rather painfully. She had in
tended throwing 1t away, because 1t
was now useless, but had absent-mind-
edly fastened IL to her waist.

Leone went to her berth and smiled
as she drifted of to sleep. She was
young and frivolous, In addition to
being exceedingly attractive.
During the year and half that en-
sued, Leone became less frivolous and
Iess young, although not less attrac-
tive. OF course she did not take on
are or sedateness, but her character
developed a great deal in those eighteen
months.
Sometimes Leone's thoughts roved
back to the journey across the At
lantic and the handsome captain who
had fiirted with her; and she began to
wish she had not flirted, that she had
allowed herself and him to be more
sincere.

It up" she told herself. "T have come
to believe he was the right man. But

lndia's Fertility.

India. more than half the size of
Europe. has every variety of surface,
climate and production. The contrast
between the level monotony Of the
Great plain and the beautiful con-
tours Of the Milgiri and Pulney hills
is no greater than that between the
arid heat Of Jacobabad and the polar
frigldity of the Himalayas; or that
between the palm groves of Cochin and
the wheat fields of Lyallpur. The pro-
ductivity Of India extends over three
zones: the tropical, sub-tropical, and
temperate; though on account Of vary
ing elevations these do not always
comply with mere considerations Of
latitude.

elective office in Vermont.
Superintendent Hitchcock said that
while the public schools were one of
the most expensive departments of
the government to maintain, this
should be so far the schools are the
essential business of the nation. Sup
erintendent Hitchcock considered
the school problem from five
impoltant angles, buildings, pupils,
teachers, equipment, curriculum.
The best school buildings, the
best environments, produce the best
results. Well lighted, we'll heat
ed and properly ventilated school
rooms arc absolutely essen
tlals. The question of teachers is
the real cause of the rural school
problem. The teacher should be
given a saving, as well as a living
wage. Pupils may be divided into
three classes,-above the average,
average and below average. Health
and attendance provides for 90 per
cent Of the promotions. In providing
the school equipment the proper pro
portion work, study and play, com
bincs to make the ideal school sys-
tenn. One thing that makes-or
would make-for better results
would be to have the parents visit
school more frequently. The CO.
operation and better understanding
between parents, teachers and pupils
is the great secret of educational sue
cess. The change in program in the
last few years by the introduction Of
the Junior High schools is believed to
be a great Improvement in school
curriculum
Principal Wilson, after extending
a cordial invitation to the audience
to attend the several interesting pub
lie functions at the Acad my next
week, SAID that the school man and
the business or professional man on
the street, while much different, h We
many points in common. These diff
ferences might be defined as accep-
tlonal disadvantages. In the first
ulace both seek to furnish the public
what the public desires, then they
seek to provide the new things for
which demand has been created and
also seek to do this in a way to give
the very best for the money. Follow
ing up this suggestion, Principal VIII
son said that St. Johnsbury Academy
today is showingJ
today is striving to give the public
tie best, the newest and the most for
the funds provided.
The speakers were introduced by
President Brown of the Commercial
Club, who in his own inimitable way
prefaced their remarks with a happy
suggestion of the subject they were
expected to discuss. After the meet
ing in the hall the audience adjourn
ed to the art gallery below where an
enjoyable informal reception was
held.
