1t Is not considered primarily gov
eminent functioii to test the truth Of
sayings. But scientists Of the United
States bureau Of entomology have pre-
pared a test for one at least. They
have devised gate with meter de-

thereto records electrically the passage
of every bee as it goes out for honey.
What if the machine should shatter

SHAM LEADERS OF MANKIND
Much TinseI Among Many Personages
That Figure Prominently In the
Pages Of History.

Louis XIV of France was q fine
specimen Of the sham leader. He
was the man who, descending the steps
of his palace at Versailles just es his
chariot drove up. said to the coach
man, Il nearly had to wait" He it was
who remarked to his wife, when she
ventured to criticize a decision, 1--WE
have taken you, madam, SO that you
might give us children, and not that
You might give us advice" He made
an immortal phrase THE state, that's
me-"
He was splendid; embroidered and
ieweled clothes, fire nasal prominence,
vast wig, capacity for unlimited rude
ness, self-satisfaction so great that he
and marquis to hold the spittoon.
Behind that, nothing except his opinion
that in war, poetry. painting, riding,
he was supreme. Some one rather
like him had fall just before the
armistice
Louis XIV spent his life in spread
ing throughout France famine and
glory, those bosom friends; he patron
lied the arts as an arbiter Of fashion
in the last portion Of his life he chose
generals for their elegance, rather
than for their methods. He left behind
him nothing but ruins, which before
the end Of the century were cleared
up by the French Revolution.
Many such frauds live In history:
Lorenzo the Magnificent, Charles V OF
Spain, Charles XII of Sweden. They
glitter through the pages, but we know
that the true man may be inflated
as easily as the genuine diamond.
Their glow tends to throw pallor over
the real people, such as Bolivar, Lin
coin, Bismarck, Gambetta.
They deceive us. they faint our idea
Of leaders; they prevent us from rec
ognizing among the men in shining
armor those who are clad in well-pol-
ished cans.-W. l.. George, in Harpers
Magazine.
