REBUKED THE DEA!i~~
The Theoleflical Student Oct Hie Ite*
vsnge In ■ Few Werde.
Thirty years ago Alexander Schmidt
wa» dean of the university at Dorp at, ,
la the Basslan province of liraala.
-The Bloodsmlth," as th* students
called him because of his researches
concerning the circulation of the Mood,
! was noted for the severity of his dls- ;
cipiln*. An amusing Incident Is told
of him by an army chaplain In the ;
Zeltung der 10. Armee:
A certain theological student once
| wanted to get leave from the onlTensi
ty to attend his sister's wedding. The
dean refused the necessary permission
on the ground that the reason was too
j trivial The student was greatly ef
11 fended both because he wanted to go
[j; to the wedding and because he sus
|| pected that Dr. Schmidt had not be
ll lieved that his excuBe was a true one.
Accordingly he was determined to get
some kind of revenge.
It chanced that on the day after the
affair he was reading St Paul's second
letter to Timothy when he suddenly
saw a very clever way to get satisfac
tion. Laying down the Bible, he wrote
to the Dorpat newspaper and ordered
I 1 an advertisement inserted In large
! type that said simply, "II Tim. ir,
14-15a."
Every reader of the paper, surprised
by that line, reached for his Bible and
looked up the verses. Imagine the
amusement of the university students
when they found that the passage was,
"Alexander, the coppersmith, did me
much evil; the Lord reward him ac
cording to his works; of whom be thou
I ware also."
BURNING THE LEAVES*
A Fosllsh Waste of What Might Be s
Valuable Fertiliser.
Many ton» of valuable fertilizer are
wasted every year through our practice
of raking the fallen leaves from lawns
and parks Into the street and burning
them We destroy one of the best of
nature's fertilizers, thst on which she
relies for the renewal of the vegetable
| humus In the solL
j All nature's protection Is removed in
i the Interest of tidiness. Then we won
I der why lawns must be so frequently
| resodded and why grass seed "won't
i catch." The fallen leaves protect the
roots of grass and shrub* from the
| freezing and thawing of winter and.
i deposited in a corner of the back yard
with a little earth thrown over them to
prevent their blowing awaj; in a year
or two are converted Into what the
forester calls "duff," an organic ma
terial which makes the loam that
grows the farmer's best crops.
| It Is an excellent top dressing for the
lawn and enrichment for flowers and
j shrubs and, mixed with a little ordinary
earth, a most desirable soil for filling
the window boxes and repotting plants,
something hard to get in town. It Is
Invaluable to the amateur gardener
who utilizes his back yard, and yet it Is
almost invariably wasted. SVe pay
thousands of dollars every year for
i phosphates and nitrates and overlook
this valuable product of nature's labor

Nature'e Monument te WaeWngtorv
Among the many monuments to
Washington Is the one which every
visitor to the Cape Verde Islands will
remember as one of the moot colossal
and marvelous freaks of natural sculp
ture In existence. Along the farther
side of the harbor of San Vicente, the
principal town, rises a bold ridge of
dark gray volcanic rocks, the crest of
which forms an exact likeness «f oar
Immortal George, seemingly lying face
upward, as If in a peaceful slee> Tfce
hero's large, bold features, the back
ward wave of the hair, his massive
shoulders and even the frill of the shirt
front are all reproduced on a rtnntlc
scale with wonderful exactness. The
strange monument, sharply eotllned
against the deep blue of thai tasplcal
sky, Is one of the first objects that
meet one's eye la approaching* the
Vanus and Jupiter.

Value of Knowledge.
Knowledge Is like the coin of ex*
change. A man Is justified, to £ de«
gree, In taking pride In Its possession
if he himself worked over the gold of
It and tried to coin It or, at least, if
he came by it honestly, already tested
out. But when he did not do anything
of the kind, but just got It from some
passerby who threw It Into his face,
then what ground has he to boast of

GLASS STAINED BY X-RAYS
Experiments Have Shown These Pro
duce the Same Effect as the
Light of the Sun. N
It Is well known that glass exposed
for long to sunlight acquires a violet
tint. In very old houses the windows
facing south are often distinctly vio
let. Experiments recently made in the
laboratories of the General Electric
company at Schenectady with X-rays
prove that these can be used to dye
glass In many colors, principally an
amethystine violet and an araber yel
low, but also green and bright yellow.
These colors, according to Mr. Ro
senthal, who conducted the experi
ments, are due to modifications of the
physical structure of the glass anil not
to chemical alterations. The color can
be made to penetrate to any desired
depth, from a mere surface tint to
complete coloration of the entire sub
stance, And the same method can be
applied to tinting porcelain, enainel
and precious stones.
An Interesting and Important fact
about this glass fhrt h:is teen colored
by long exposure to X-rays Is that It
becomes Impervious to the radiations
that have transformed It. Thus It can
be Used as a protection against the
glare of the sun or the snow and
kgalrst 'he X-rays themselves.
What m a lies you feel so tough?
Well, there Is no way of telling, nowa
days. A dentist will say it's your
teeth; a stomach specialist will say
it's your digestion; a Christian Scien
tist will lay it to a defective mental
attitude; an optometrist will find a
cure in double lenses, and a nerve spe
cialists will invalidate you for three
months. Do you smoke?—Kansas
