BY THOMAS H. MARSHALL,
Former Vice President OF the United
States.
Everything changes in life from
age to age except one thing-human
nature. 1t remains the same always
and everywhere. The strongest ar
gument against the Darwinian theory
is not the Holy Bible, but the holy
nuisance that every man now and
then realizes that he, himself, is
Men are now born with larger op-
portunities than ever before, greater
chances for advancement and more
comforts and conveniences. but still
they are born men, as in the past. AS
far as the primal instincts of the
race are concerned. they are wha,
they were a thousand years ago and
what they probably shall be q thou
sand years hence. They enter the
world without cognizance of law OF
anything of the kind; at the outset
they are individually socialistic.
He is a rare child who is not a rad
ical. To most young persons, what
ever is is wrong. The average boy
is individualistic enough to desire to
keep whatever he has. and sufficient
ly socialistic to think, If he thinks al
all, that he has a right to anything
he can get his hands on. He knows
no reason why Keep of the grass
should be stuck up at the very place
he wishes to play. He cannot under
stand why anything he wishes Is not

some larger boy. equally radical
takes from him something which he
regards as his own. Then for the
first time his radicalism is checked.
xx *
There is a story told OF an Indian
and a white man who hunted together
Their joint bag at the end of the
day contained a turkey and a turkey
buzzard. How to divide was a prob
lem, until the white man suggested
that he would take the turkey and
the Indian could have the turkey buz-
zard or the Indian might take the
turkey buzzard and he would keep
the turkey. This illustrates the kind
of distribution which Is satisfactory
to most young hunters in life. How
ever, when two white men hunt to-
gether a readjustment of ideas is
necessary.
Radicalism fades and loses it's lus-
ter when it encounters existing con-
ditions. The natural boy, as his days
go on, tends to the realization that
while there are some boys from whom
he can take whatever he wishes, yet
there are other boys who can take
from him what they wish. Then
arises in his mind, probably for the
first time. the question of right. Not
at the moment does his contemplation
of the question invade the realm OF
religion or morals. Ethics are in nc
way involved. but something wonder.

question is viewed in the light Of
probabilities The boy wonders
whether IL he keeps on taking what

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

The Brighter Side.
AS Summer hours go drifting by
You see splendid butterfly,
A graceful iridescent thing;
A bit Of rainbow taking wing.
Ill-favored and OF evil way
In furtive hiding night and day,
We know there was a grub whose
greed
Bounded its sense Of earthly need.
When to our gaze the moth is brought
Let us dimiss the grub from thought
And when we see a grub. let's try
To think about the butterfly.

ties already have begun to swarm in
countless hundreds. while their light

Some of the firef1ies. indeed. are
able TO remain "all lit up" for min
utes at time, glowing in the grass
like unearthly, animated jewels.
| The small girl, attracted by the
lightning bugs" watched them in

as the family was sitting on the front
porch.

The same child was seated one day

of the birds.
After a while a Bob White started

Then the family was astonished to

! Recent weather has been a knock
out to those who declare that Wash
| ington is the hottest city in the
United States.
This is one of the pet delusions Of
a certain number of persons, both
here and throughout the country.
Having once seen somewhere that the
| temperature here and at Phoenix
was the same upon one day during
one year. they never forget it. but
ever afterward declare. Washington
is the hottest city in the country"
The saving thing about weather in
the Summer in the National Capital is
that cool weather invariably comes
to relieve the situation.
In the Middle West, for instance, it
gets hot and stays hot for months at
time. Day after day, much as Cole

| This city seldom has a real heated
spell of more than two weeks in
length. A thunderstorm here usually
accomplishes something towardS re-
lief. sending the temperature down

The decidedly cool spell of the pas
week was a good instance of Wash

hot again, of course-but then, 1t will
get cool again. too.
