Civilization and Climate.

Prof. Ellsworth Huntington Of Yale
university marked on a map Of the
world the areas where climate was
most favorable to human effort. He
called these areas zones of climatic
energy. Then he delved into history
and plotted a map of civilization. He
found that the two maps conceded.
Ills conclusion was that climate has
great influence on health, and it's ac-
ton on civilization in this way prob
ably Is greater than its direct effect
or than the Indirect results arising
through agriculture or food"
Professor Huntington took the rec
ords of pieceworkers in Pittsburgh fac
tories and students at West Point and
Annapolis and found that both phys
lcal and mental work varied In har-
mony with the weather, according to
the Detroit News. He found that the
death rate also fuctuated seasonally
according to the weather. He there
fore concluded that no high civiliza-
ton is possible In tropical regions, or
where weather conditions are adverse.
No high accomplishment was held pos
sible where temperature and humidity
are unfavorable.

Not Talking to Husband.

There is no testimony in court that
Is as vehement and pointed as that
of militant housewife who seeks a
divorce from her husband. This fact,
1t appears, is true especially when the
wife's case is uncontested and the hus-
band is not at the hearing.
During such case in one Of the
county courts, the wife became very
loud and vociferous in her descrip-
tions and denunciations Of the brutal
manner in which, she said, her spouse
had treated her. Her testimony was
as rapid as loud. In fact her words
became jumbled and were lost in the
noisy din Of her own walls.
'"Now look here a minute" the
judge interrupted. Nobody can get
heads or tails Of what you are saying
as long as you go on that way. Now
turn here and talk to me and tell me
the story. Just tell me so can under
stand it, but remember you are not
talking to your husband"

RACE OF WORLD coNQUER0Rs
saracens Came Within short Space
Of Controlling the Then Entire
Known Earth.

The Saracens, who rose to such
power during the Middle ages, were
originally only tribe Of wandering
Arabs who came from the Syro Ara
bian desert and harassed the Roman
empires frontiers. They were called
Saraceni by the Romans and Greeks.
Later on the name Of Saracens was
given to all Moors Arabs and Turks
In fact, to all Mohammedans, or Sin
fidels" as they were called. DR.. John
William Draper, In his book, 1.-THE
Conflict Between Religion and Sci
ence'-where he gave a long account
of the Saracens-said, in describing
the conquests they made after the
death of Mahomet: Never In the his
tory of the world had there been so
rapid and extensive propagation of
any religion as Mohammedanism. 1t
was now dominating from the center
of Asia to the western verge of
Africa" At one time or another the
Saracens conquered Egypt, Persia,
Syria, North Africa and Palestine.

announcing their intention Of conquer
ing Italy, advanced into France as far
as the banks of the Loire. Charles
Martel (about 6S8-741), the Frankish
or French ruler, in great battle
which took place near Tours, defeated
the invaders, and 100000 Saraceps are
said to have been killed, while the re-
mainder retreated to Spain. In saving
his own country Charles Martel saved
the rest of Europe from being overrun
by the Moslem hordes. Gibbon, In
speaking Of these historical events,
made the following statement: "a
victorious line Of march had been pro.
longed above thousand miles from
the rock Of Gibraltar to the banks of
the Loire-a repetition of an equal
space would have carried the Saracens
to the confines of Poland and the
Highlands of Scotland"

Sam Cherowiski, Russian farmer,

says flying rats are carrying off eggs

Sam declares they are not bats, nor
flying squirrels, but big rats with
wings like bird. All rat holes to
his hennery were plugged and still the
eggs and chickens disappeared. The
farmer hid and watched for the ma
rauder. Soon, he said, through a

"to tell me something-quite truly.
Did you mean what you said just
now-about marrying"
There was an infinitesimal pause.
There was look in Lees eyes as
she heard him that was bewildered,
and a shade scared. Then she an.
swered matter-of-factly. on an un.
concealed yawn.
What a stupid question. OF
course did! Goodnight"
Goodnight" The man turned
away slowly. But there was no
hint of disappointment in his tone,
and after a minute, very gently, he
began to smile.
The morning dawned clear. as
though fog had never been. Lee,
coming into the outer room at
breakfast time found her host
fourishing a frying pan over the
still brilliant fire. He smiled upon
her genially.

if you're as hungry as am"
Lee glanced at him quickly, a
vague recollection of something dis.
turbing the night before in her
mind. She sat down relieved. He
placed her breakfast before her
with another flourish. and kept up
a lively chatter all through the
meal.
Later he helped her into her boat
and. pushing it out from the rocks
ran out into the water knee high.
Then he stood, hand on either
side OF the little craft, holding 1t
steady. Lee smiled at him under
her lashes.
You've been very kind" she
said. 81 really enjoyed my adven-
ture. Perhaps-some day-we shall
meet again"
Sure" He spoke with a convic-
ton that took her aback. He was
watching her lips and trying not to
let her see it, His lids were low
cred. and an odd light came and
went beneath them. Then, sudden.
ly, he leaned forward.

set herself no easy one. The men,
ory of the caress OF the mans eyes,
as much as that of his lips, burned
her. She was furious with herself
and little frightened.
That kiss was the first she had
ever known. Her throat throbbed
whenever she thought Of 1t, and
though she would not admit 1t be-
meath her rage there was an odd.
tingling sweetness.
She knew fierce self-scorn for
her folly-that folly that allowed
her to linger, even against her will,
on the memory. But she knew, too,
that the kiss had robbed her of
something while 1t had given her
something, and that she would
never be the same again.

But Lee was on her feet now,
a vision OF scared Terry, an hys-

and scandalized community assail-
ing her mentality.
Perhaps he read something of
her thought, for his lip twisted
again, half cynically. half humor'
ously.

into her half-uttered sentence.

back into her chair with an exas-

thing at once boyishly disarming,
amiably reassuring about him as he
stood before her, hands thrust into
his pockets, his fair head flung
back. He smiled suddenly as their
eyes met, and she found it gave to
him an unexpected sunny charm
that was very pleasant.
It's really pretty simple. isn't
it?" he proceeded. "You rowed out
in this direction-got caught in the
fog-and sheltered in the ruins.
Straightforward enough story. don't
you know-and no need to enlarge
upon it. Meantime"-again he
smiled-"well ignore the awkward

shack appears. Cards-chess-

He indicated a phonograph with
a proudly proprietorial wave of his
arm, adding. with grin:

Lee laughed in spite OF her an
noyance. His matter-of-factness,
and her own sound good sense did
much toward restoring her ruffled
equanimity. The laugh cleared the
air. Her host nodded. pulled the
chairs close to the fire and smiled
down at her.
Shall we talk frst?" he asked,
almost eagerly, and Lee laughed
again. Thereafter neither noticed
