boundary ^if Alexander’s empire,
running from the Jaxartes river
southward along the Pamir ranges,
“the roof of the world,” to the
Indus, and then on to the Indian
ocean, divided the world and its
history into two utterly distinct
parts.
The part which lay to the east,
witu its two great centers, Iudia
and Ch.na, and which today in-
cludes a little over half the popu-
lation or the globe, had no part
nor share in the life and history
of the western part, which we
call our Nearer World. All the
elements within this Nearer World
stretching from Afghanistan and
Persia to the shores of western
Europe, have, in the long pro-
cess of mixture and fermentation
which history has suffered since
Alexander’s time, yielded their
contribution, small or great to
the civilization upon which our
modern life is based. The his-
tory which wa study, whether of
events, institutions, ideas or re-
ligions, has been ail a history of
this nearer world.

ItSo de-
ffo Lightning on Ships,
The reason why ships are not
struck by lightning is attributetd
by German athorities to the gen-
eral use which is now made of
wire rop8 for rigging purposes,
as well as to the fact that the
hulls of ships are usually con-
structed of iron nnd steel. Thus
the whole ship is an excellent and
continuous conductor, by means
of which the electrioity is led
away into the ocean before it has
time to do any serious damage.

The Whole Truth.
Customer—I see you are recom-
milk. Is it better than the others?
The boy (who is to sever his con-
nection on Saturday night)—No,
ma’am; but we make a cent a can
more than we do on the other
kinds.
e horned screamer (Palarne-
dra coruuda), the rarest species
of birds now extant, and one
which is almost extinct, has his
home in the jungles of South
America. The bird, which feeds
on the leaves and seeds of aquatic
plants, inhabits swamps, is of a
blackish-brown color, nearly as
large as a turkey, and has some
what the appearance of a gallina-
ceous bird. The only one now in
captivity is that belonging to the
aviary of the Philadelphia zoolog-
ical gardens. In the Mascarene
islands, including Reunion, Maur-
itius and Rodriguez, off the east
coast of Africa, there still exists
a very rare parrot, or rather par-
rakeet, named scientifically Pa-
laeornis exsul. The number of
this species which survive is so
very small that only one single
specimen has ever been obtained,
and that as long ago as 1871.
Another rare bird is the Labra-
dor duck, so called from being
commonly found during the sum-
mer on the North American coast,
as well as about the mouth of the
St. Lawrence river, and which
migrates in the winter to the
shores of Nova Scotia, New
Brunswick, New England and
perhaps farther southward. It
was formerly common in the
markets of the United States, but
the last known to have lived was
killed near Halifax, Nova Scotia,
dnring the autumn of 1852.
THE
What the Princess Said.
Here is a story told by the Prin
cess of Wales. She was once
shown through the museum of
Scotland Yard, containing the
photographs of countless rogues,
and also some of the methods,
scientific and legal, for tracing
crime and punishing it.
“It is all very clever,” said the
kindly princess, with a sigh; “but
if the world were as anxious to
discover the good men as it is the
bad, what a pleasant place it
would be!”
For a Smmker Breakfast.
The secret or cooking breakfast
bacon so it will be a “delicate
light brown, dry and crisp,” con-
sists, first, in catting it thin, then
in having it ice cold when it is put
in the pan, which must be hot’
yet not red hot. Shake the pan
rapidly while the bacon is cooking;
toss the bacon over. If will cook
into rolls in two or three minutes.
Mushroom Sauce.
Prepare the mushrooms by cut-
ting off the stalk, placing them
in boiling water. Sc%son with
salt, pepper and butter. Boil
until tender, and thicken with a
tablespaonful of flour and a small
piece of-butter. Add a few drops
of lemon juice, and pour over the
whole slices of steamed bread.
Ice Cream Sandwiches.
Ice cream sandwiches, from
slices of ice cream between lengths
of cake, are new and palata-
ble. For evening parties it is
novel to serve these.

Method In His Madness.
_-“You say Mrs^ Weeks was here
during my absence ?” said the
superintendent of the lunatic asy-
lum to the attendant.
“les, sir,” was the reply, “she
called to see about taking her
husband home, but he positively
refused to go—said he would
rather stay here.”
“I thought there was something
suspicious about that man,” said
the superintendent . “He isn”
crazy at all.”
Knew What She Wanted.
“Before I prescribed for you,”
said the fashionable physician, “I
would like to ask if it is true that
your husband made $100,000 on
the Stock Exchange dnring the
last month.”
“It was a little more than that,
doctor,” answered the fair patient.
“Under thoie cireu nffiances,’
said the physician, “I should say
that what you most need is a Eu-
ropean trip.”
And yet some people are unable
to understood the popularity of
some or the fashionable,. nhysi-
cians.

Doctor-I find that you are doing

this happen? I thought you said

durance more than anythin*
else?”
Patient—They 'do. The brain
work is due to the efforts I have
to put forth in remembering all
the things my wife wants me to
get for her downtown every day.

“Abe” Hummell, the noted
New York lawyer, is Lillian Rus-
sel’s legal adviser. In speaking
of the opera singer the other day
he said: “I am engaged to look
after her matrimonial and other
legal matters by the year. ’ ’ Which
moved one of his hearers to say;
“That looks like a wholesale trade,
doesn’t it?”

Marriage and Genius
Mr. John Gilmer Speed warns
girls of a marriageable age to be-
ware of men of exceptional talent,
and if they would seek safety to
choose husbands from the class of
industrious mediocrity. But take
the two most conspicious literary
lights of our own day. Stevenson
was an invalid and a nomad, a
man of genius, with every appar-
ent excuse for being an indifferent
husband, instead of which he
seems to have been a delightful
man to live with, fairly provident
always kind and industrious be-
yond his strength. So report re-
represents Mr. Kipling as a man
who finds his chief pleasures at
home, and as a kind, sober and
diligent citizen.
Mr. Speed’s impressions to the
contrary notwithstanding, there
does not seem to be sufficient
reason for wise maidens to dis-
criminate against men who have
nothing the matter with them
than that they are exceptionally
clever. Ab iity won’t make up
for serious defects of character.
Don t marry a brute, however
clever he is, nor a man more sel-
fish than proper in a man, nor
any sort of a bad man whatever;
but don’t discriminate against
intelligence, even when it exceeds
the usual limits. A man of sense
will make his Wife happy if he
can. More women suffer from a
lack of intelligence in husbands
than from an excess of it. In-
telligence helps a man to make a
living, helps him to make himself
agreeable and helps him to appre-
ciate the importance of doing
both.
Girls about to marry should
guard perhaps against choosing
men who are so clever that they
won’t care for their wives, but
they must take thought also
against choosing men who are so
dull that living with them will be
uninteresting. It is just as bad—
worse perhaps—to marry a man
who does not interest yo^M _to
me whose t
