Character and Climate

Racial character depends largely
on climate. Where the climate is
stimulating it is easy for people to
be industrious. They are more like
ly to be inventive, to make i'm
provements, and to carry out re
forms. They do not necessarily
have more ideas but they have the
energy to put the ideas in action,
says Prof. c. V. P. Young of Cornell
university.
Habits of life and occupations,
and even social practices and philos-
ophies of life, are largely de-
termined by climate and geographic
cal conditions. In the Far North
nomadic life is necessary, because
hunting and fishing grounds must be
changed. Family ties are not like
ly to bind strongly. Families are
small and in the precarious sub
sistence there is little pity for those
who cannot support themselves. In
the tropics life is too easy and the
scantiest labor yields abundantly.

Compass Needle Never
Quite Without Motion

Ask the next dozen people you
meet where the compass needle
points, and some OF them may re
ply that it indicates true north.
Actually there are very few places
in which it does so. The Magnetic
pole, to which the needle points, is
some distance from the North pole.
In Great Britain the compass needle
shows a direction considerably to
the west of true north. Every year
the error will become a little less,
until it is quite small. Then the
needle will begin to move westward
again, the error growing and grow
ing as the years pass. Columbus,
Drake, and other early users of the
magnetic compass must have been
sorely puzzled at times by its an
tics, for in some parts of the world
the deviation, as it is called, is enor-
nous. Curfously enough, the COM
pass needle does not remain quite
steady at any place during the "a
hours. 1t swings a very small
amount, first in one direction
and then in the other, each day. If
you look at a compass needle care
fully you will see that it has a slight
downward tilt. This inclination
varies slightly during the day and
night.

ace and rules no nation; in fact, he
does not live at all, being not a
ruler, but bell. The Car Kolokol

of the tower of Ivan in the Krem-
lin, Moscow. 1t weighs 200 tons and
at the base is IL inches thick, while
1t Is 81 feet In circumference. It
Is broken bell; broken, it is said,
when it was first tested, but It was

fore 1t could be made to ring, so

Old and New Commingle
on Streets of Madeira

Madeira has been aptly termed
The Enchanted Isle" and still de-
serves its poetic title in spite of a
recent landslide which occasioned
considerable loss of life and prop
erty. Madeira is a land of sun and
flowers and blue skies which has be-
come highly popular as a holiday
resort with those of means and
leisure. What struck me most about
1t (writes correspondent, was the
extraordinary survival of customs
at least five or six centuries old
alongside modern methods and i'm
provements. Up and down the mar
row, twisting streets of cobble, pa
tient pairs of bullocks still groan as
they strain at sleds laden with pas
sengers or merchandise, and driven
by men or boys in picturesque ma
tive costume, while the most mod
ern motor car, and motor buses,
carrying natives between Funchal
and the villages of the hinterland,
whiz past them at a quite incred-
ible pace.

Find IN Desert Causes
Stir Among Scientists

In a sand-filled depression near
the ancient Pyramid of Degrees, IL
miles north of Cairo. Egypt, a won
derful discovery has been made by
the Egyptian department of antiqui-
ties.
Several stone statuettes were
found in a heap at the top Of a
large sand-filled depression, some
distance from any building. Their
attributes, costumes and attitudes
indicate that they are Syrian deities.
On the other hand, their workman
snip seems to show the hand Of an
Egyptian sculptor of the Persian
or Ptolemaic period. The largest
statuette represents a fat, seated
woman, wearing a high tiara. 9th
ers represent a man in Chaldean
costume, and woman, both stand
Ing in rigid attitudes, with their
hands extended forward, while q
mans head with a large beard
seems to come from a winged bull.
The rarity of figures of western
Asiatic gods gives considerable i'm
portance to these figures. They
further possess historical signifi-
canoe, as they were probably made
for one of the foreign colonies which
were so numerous at Memphis in
the later Pre-Christian period, and
of which hitherto so little has been
known.

Cuba, Haiti and Porto Rico come
the Lesser Antilles, and to cruise

area and shape st. Thomas is like
Manhattan, but sugar plantations
rather than apartment houses occu.

Splitting as Method of
Aggression or Defense

Early legends of the dragons
fiery breath, be it monster of the
sea, land, air or all three, may have
been inspired, some biologists be-
lieve, by the tendency of many liv-
ing creatures to resort to splitting as
an act of aggression.
A type of beetle known as bonn
barber, common in some districts
of England, expels a volatile liquid
that, exploding, leaves a tiny cloud
of actually a fiery breath
TO confuse its enemies.
Many snakes eject thin streams
of venom from their fangs, and the
serpentine ringhals Of South At
RIGA have developed proficiency in
aiming at a victims eyes. Newly
confined reptiles often cover the
glass panes of their pens with venom
intended for passers-by.
Several species of fish rise to the
surface in aquariums and spout at
visitors, possibly in an effort to at
tract the attention of those who
have food. The archer fish, found
in the fresh water of the Malay
archipelago, spouts water at insects
resting on floating twigs. The jet
knocks the insects within reach.
Among land animals the house
cats pitt" accompanied by
sWipe with extended claws, seems
to be its natural reaction to the
presence of a dog.-New York Times

Cremation Long in Use
for Disposal of Dead

Cremation is one OF the three
common methods of disposing of
human remains which antedate his
tory, the others being simply expos
ure and burial or entombment. Gre
nation was originally widely preva-
lent among the Indo-European races.
Throughout northern Europe graves
OF the Bronze age contain not skel-
etons but urns for funeral ashes.
Cremation was the general practice
of the Romans for hundreds Of
years, while the Greeks also prac-
ticed 1t to great extent. Many
of the early American Indians
burned their dead; the custom was
common of old in England and in
Gaelic and Germanic Europe; and
in India and parts of other oriental
countries it is regularly followed to-
day.
With the spread of Christianity,
however, cremation became a rare
thing. Charlemagne is said to have
punished with death those who prac-
tieed it. Discussions looking toward
Its re-establishment began a CEN
fury or two ago, but nothing came
of them until Italy sanctioned Gre
nation in 1852 by revoking prohib.
ltory laws. 1t was legalized in
France in 1887, and had been insti-
tuted in England two years earlier.
1t is now practiced to some extent
in almost every country.

Read Before Venturing
to Ouote ShaLesn.

When you have written some
verses or made a wireless set, or
achieved something of which you
are rather proud, have you never
said. with becoming modesty: "a
poor thing, sir, but mine own" The
quotation really begins IAN ill-fa-
vored thing" Again, 90 you not often
hear of something becoming small
by degrees and beautifully less?
That is a useless phrase, but it is
not what the author wrote. He said
fine by degrees"
A common misquotation is "A
gOodly apple rotten at the core"
Heart, not core, is the correct word.
Similarly you should chew the food
(not the cud) of sweet and bitter
fancy.
There are some quotations which
we make correctly, but with an en-
tirely wrong meaning. When, for
instance, we quote "One touch of
nature makes the whole world kin"
we usually imply that some particu-
lar event has drawn all creeds or
nations or classes closer together.
All that Shakespeare meant by the
line was that in one way all human
beings are very much alike.
Perhaps the strangest instance of
all is to be found in the phrase
More hon0red in the breach than
in the observance" which we take
TO mean that some rule is more
often broken Than kept. If you turn
up Hamlet" Act 1, Scene 4, you
will find that Hamlet is speaking of
the drinking bouts which disgrace
the court. 1T is a CUSTOM" he says,
more honored in the breach than
the observance" meaning a custom
that it is more honorable to aban-
don than to keep up.-London Tit
Bits.
