Human Nature

The late Charles R. Erwin, the we'll
known advertising expert, attributed
success in advertising to a knowledge
of human nature. At banquet In
New York he once said:
1--WE used to hear lot about scien-
tific management. We hear nothing
about it now. Why has 1t died out?
It has died out because, unlike ad-
vertising, it ignores human nature.
"Look here, my man. young scien-
tific management sharp said to hoary
old hod carrier, let me show you how
to pack those bricks in your bod. You
don't do it right. You should do 1t
like this. There-see? By this new
scientific management you actually get
eleven more bricks in the hod.'
ayes, sir, very much pleased said
the bod carrier gloomily, but to tell
We the truth, sir, like me old way
best
"sGreat Caesars ghost! WhyT
because the hod's easier to carry
the old way, boss"

French National Gems
Are We'll Protected

The ease with which the robbery at
Chantilly was committed, in which the
Grande Cond was taken, may recall
to many tourists that the French
crown jewels, including the great Re-
gent diamond, considered by many the
finest in the world, are exposed In the
Louvre in similar showcase, appar-
emily equally unprotected.
No such simple means as were used
at Chantilly will enable any one to es-
cape With the jewels in the Louvre,
however. There they lie in glass show
cases during the day, stared at by
hundreds of casual wanderers.
The Regent diamond alone Is said to
be worth $3,00OOOO. Near it is the
Mazarin diamond and with them the
great dragon-shaped ruby, Cote de
Bretaque, cut for Nine. De Pompadour.
The crowns Of Napoleon and Charlie
"magne sparkle with fortunes in pre-
cions- stones. Down the center of the
great room, the Galerie d'Apollon, the
most gorgeous in the Louvre, is
whole line Of similar cases loaded with
precious Jewels from all ages, many
Of them presented by the late ]. Pier
pont Morgan. Sardonyx and Jasper,
lapis lazuli, pearls, diamonds, emer-
aids, objects of rock crystal and finely
worked gold make glittering array.
What more simple than for deter
mined bandits to force their way in at
night in the best American fashion
and make haul.
But should they try 1t the bandits
would be mystified. They would find
the room bare except for unwieldy
busts of forgotten emperors and
vases weighing as much as an ordinary
"burglar-proof' safe.
For at night the wide glass cases
containing the more precious jewels
all that a robber would covet-disap-
pear into cunningly devised vaults
built under the floor. And few are the
bandits who could work the machln-
cry which brings the cases into sight
again for the next days tourist rush.

Necktie in Russia

People in the towns along the Volga
paid extraordinary attention to my
clothes. If drank beer and wore no
cravat the cost of living went down.
Apples cost 2 kopecks and a droshky
ride ruble. People took me for a
foreign political outcast living in Rus

ers had the proletarian instinct to ex-
pect no tip. Shoeblacks were satisfied
with 10 kopecks, and the peasants in
the post Office begged me to address
their letters in a clear hand
But how expensive it was when
wore cravat People called me
Grafhdanin (burgher) and Gospodin
(sir). German settlers said Herr
Landsmann. Business men began to
abuse the government. Coachmen ex-
pected a ruble for their fare. Walters
told me that they had gone to business
school and were really intelligent
men.-Frankfurte Zeitung diving

African Sheep Noted
for Fi0htin1 Strain

Six Barbary sheep, whose parents
were brought from the mountains Of
northern Africa, have been born at
the Geological gardens, London.
They are veritable "little bounders,"
for within an hour of birth they had
scaled the rocks Of their home on the
Mappin terraces and were to be seen
surveying the world in which they
found themselves, from the topmost
pinnacles.
Barbary sheep are bellicose lot,
and when the males are not fighting
the females are. Each mother pro-
tects her youngsters so zealously that
she will not allow another to approach
too near.
eff the females keep fighting too
long male comes along and stops
Them" said the keeper; "but, as
rule, the one who is beaten gives a
squeak, as much as to say, Enough
when she is allowed to depart in
peace. The males squeak, too, when
vanquished."

FORGOT Year Zero

Whether the year 1880 or the year
1881 A. D. is the two thousandth ami
versary of the year 70 B. G. is sub
ject that has been agitating the Brit
ish press. The Times says 1880 but
one of its correspondents, Doctor
Glover by name, maintains that it is
1881.
The latter view is based on the
theory that, among other errors, his
torians have mistakenly omitted the
year zero from their computation Of
time on an A. D. and B. 9. basis. The
system now is that the morning after
December 81 B. G. was January 1 A.
D. But astronomers know better and
insist on inserting a zero year at this
point..-Living Age.

Geysers Found Only
in Volcanic Repions

Iceland's chief boast is the original
geyser. Geyser, which means rush
ing" Is an Icelandic word that has
been adopted by all the world. Saxo,
Danish writer of the Twelfth cen
fury, made first mention of this hot
spring but 1t was not until the Nine
teenth century that Bunsen, the Ger
man chemist, explained the action of
such springs, after visit to Iceland.
There are geysers in most volcanic
regiOns-notably in Yellowstone and
New Zealand. Some of the American
geysers spout as high as $50 feet. The
original Iceland geyser is erratic;
sometimes it will blow to a height
Of $50 feet, but ordinarily only 80 or
40 feet, and sometimes it gets peevish
and will not show off before visitors.
Geysers are caused by water coming
in contact with hot rock underground
under such conditions that steam is
formed and the water is elected
