One should look ahead for his moments Of recresdon
he knows that all life but movement and AZ movement
IS but rythmicaL The strength Of mans blow which he
puts out is in proportion to the length and quality ct the
rest that he puts behind it
The best rest always, is change Of occupation Those
who Of sdentary habits should plan for rest Of phy
cal activity and those of active physical occupation should
plan more for rest Of quietude.
The subject goes deeper and there il spiritual rest a

Unless there be low in spiritual activities there
can be no high tide Unless there be time when we simply
Lie aow and let the Of dleness overcome us there

GARRETT P. SERVISS ON SOME
ERRORS REGARDING MARS
Planet Is Not Divided Into Three Zones, as Re-
ported, Has No Large Bodies Of Water.

The general tone Of the planets
surface, as have said, s. some
what rudy, though the color n
more pronounced when the planet
is viewed with the naked eye
than when it Is seen Emagnifled
in the telescope field. The re.
gions to which the terms ssbluish"
or '.greenish" are sometimes ap.
piled in descriptions Of the ap.
pearance Of Mars IN powerful tele.
scopes, are generally seen only
as duslxy or shadowy, with no
pronounced color. They are the
portions OF the planet which were
formerly supposed to be occupied
by oceans, and as such they were
given names by the "aerograph.
ers' observers Of Marsl, about
1860 and 1870. Now II seems 70
have been demonstrated that no
large bodies of water exist upon
Mars. and the regions ia Ques.
ton are regarded. by some, as
possibly IN the condition OF marshy
ground, covered with vegetation.
But this Il purely speculative.
Canals" Hard TO See.
The famous "canaIs'' are only
to be seen with 4 few Of the.
largest telescopes IN existence. and
under exceptionally excellent con.
ditions for telescope observation,
and not the fainteat glimpse Of
suggestion Of them can be obtained
with ordinary telescopes. Indeed.
not all Of the astronomers who
have looked for them with the
premier telescopes OF the world,
have been successful In seeing
them, and some affirm that they
have no real existence, but are
optical illusions. In any case, the
lines seen by Lowell and others
are not supposed to be canals, but
long bands. varying from hun
dred to two hundred or more miles
IN width, which Lowell supposed
might be irrigated strips supplied
with water BY systems Of canals
connected with the polar regions.
The reason for connecting them
Tins was assumed to be that about
the only available water on Mars
n that furnished alternately in
each hemisphere by the annual
melting Of the SHOWS.
How hopeless It Is for anybody
To look for these things with
small telescope may be realized
when It is remembered that Mars,
I'll its nearest, 10 S6,000.OOO miles
from the earth, and that q magni.
fyinR power Of 9 thousand diam
eters (which Is not currently EN-.
ployed even with giant telescopes
stili leaves It virtually $4,000 miles

She refused fatty to live in II, even

Compromise

There was rich uncle who wanted
the baby named Violet. Aunt Pansy
had money. too. and intImated that
size would not be dlspleased to have
d namesake. Mother wanted TO name
the child Lily.
II looked a deadlock. But wise old
grandpa came forward with sugges-
ton that practically accommodated
everybody. They named the baby
Blossom.
