SET HARD TASK FOR ARTIST Chinese Demand Absolutely Perfect Werk From Man Entrusted With : " the Carving of Jade. The high standing of jade is no modern thing. The primitive weights and measures of the Chinese world were computed from jade tubes, and the elrHest bars or intervals of music known to that nation were determined by hollow bamboo:canes of accurate length, afterward made in jade tubes having stops within to be pulled out at the will of the player. : ! i The Spaniards and the Mexicans have as great respect for the stone as the Chinese, and they make great use of it. The Chinese value their jade carvings so highly that they cannot often be prevalled upon to part with them, ; -

When an unusually large piece of jade is found in China, there is called a council of artists to determine into what shape it had best Le carved, as, owing to its extreme hardness, the form selected must follow somewhat the outline indicated by the natural formation ef the specimen. : The artist chosen to. perform the delicate task is not altogether to be envied. It is true that if he succeeds he will be highly honored dnd rewarded, but success depends upon his ‘work being approved after it has been subjected to public criticism for a whole year. If, at the end of that time, his work should be condemned, his reputation as an artist is ir retrievably lost. . e

- The task itself 18 no light one. With a thin piece of finely tempered brass wire, the artist may work for a week without haying anything to show. Twenty years have not been considered too long for a single piece of carving. SHARK FISHING IS EXCITING in Australla the Element of Danger ~ Adds to Its Attraction for the Sportsman. Shark fishing is & sport in Australia that has found many devotees ameng Englishmen because of the Ilure of danger. As the native practiced fit, there were times when the sharks had all the fun, as in large numbers they could transform the sport to native hunting, remarks an exchange. Fishermen are sometimes the victims of the viclous tiger sharks, most dangerous. of the. species, with their swift lunges through the water and powerful jaws. They are hated and feared with equal intensity.

An English sportsman describes his efforts to catch a shark and his fail--ure after all his hooks were gone. The shark would take the hook, allowing himself to be drawn almost to the rock where the sportsman stood. Then the shark’s sharp jaws would sever the line and he woud swim slowly about until another hook could be dropped in. A stout hook was attached to a line by & chain, and with this the shark was drawn half way out of the water. Then a wave tossed him about and the line passed through his jaws, to be cut at one slash. After this several hooks, attached to a brass ‘line, were taken by the shark, but could not hold him.

-~ Parents’ Problems. Parents, as intended by nature, are the ultimate judges of their own sons, declares Good Housekeeping. They are the courts of last-resort? They are the guardians, with the double responsibility of protectlon and guidancé. They must not fail in the direction of growth. In order that personal prejudice and constant contact may not warp their attitudes, the boy must become to them 'a laboratory problem. He must be analyzed to discover his hereditary, physical, mental and environmental constituents. His composition and the materials that enter into it, his actions and reactions, the thought-processes that go into the creation of his mental behavior, the crystallization of habits of doing, feeling, and acting—all must be considered objectively, and controlled during the devious process of boyformation.

" . Wonder Wood. ‘ The next time you go to church listen closely to the organ. You will hear ~ Some tones that boom in the bass and ’ some soft mellow tones that seem to curl around you or wander gently out ! into the alr. You won’t know where they come from, but the organist will tell you that they are “wood tones” and he will explain that certain pipes of his instrument are made of wood. The American Forestry Magazine tells us that the credit for finding the possibilities of woed for.producing tones belongs' to a Philadelphian. When the roofs of the city were covered with ‘shingles, gottlieb', Hittleberger lay awake one night and listened to the ‘patter of the.rain upon them. He noted- a: good many different sounds and from his study of thém he worked out the wood pipes of the organ, . =
