HAD WEARIED OF OLD SINS
Cook Simply Had to Have Something .- New to Confess, and She T « Contrived It, .
~ The cook had committed a capital offense. No matter what. Let us assume that she put soap in the mashed potatoes, and let it go at that. It was a sad duty to dismiss an otherwise fine cook in these days when there is dearth of cooks, but soap in the mashed potatoes was going too far. ‘So the mistress of the house summoned her, : . .~ “How came you to de such a thing, Maggie?” gl ~ No answer. - ey “You know better. There must have been a reason for your putting soap in the mashed potatoes. Possibly ' you were angry?’ . i “No, mom, I wasn’t mad. I just did Ity Y e : “I would like to know what your idea was, Maggie?’ persisted the employer. “I am curious to'know why you did it.” : “Well, mom, I don’t mind tellin’ ye. I just made up my mind I’'d get a new sin to confess. I've dug old sins, and dug ’em up, and dug ’'em up, till I'm siek and ‘tired of 'em. I was bound I'd get a new one. That's exactly why I did it.” § - Maggie stayed on.—New York Evening Post, x ;
GREATEST OF ALL QUESTIONS Now, as Ever, World Must Give Con. . sideration to the Problem of ~ the Child. ~ | Everychild looks at us inquiringly. - From the streets, , - From the many windows, g From orphan and foundling asylums, - s ' From the factories, ° From_ the squalid homes ; _And from the homeless places. From the windows of the schools He looks at us inquiringly, He, the future of;the race, He looks at us and through us, And far away Spat ; Into the distant future, ; And sometimes in his eyes . ! There is hope and cheer, {k . ‘And someétimes reproach, ' And sometimes despair. A - We had best stop and look at Everychild. : ; "He is not alone for his mother, Not alone for his father, ' But belongs to every one of us; He is the deepest concern of us all. What shall be done for Everychild? —Frederick Peterson- in the North American Review. RS
-Use of Rays by Flowers. Do flowers use rays not visible to the human eye to attract insects to them? Certain insects can spot ultraviolet light that cannot be seen by man, and some blossoms, in addition to their ordinary brilliant hues, vary in the kind of short light rays that they emit. : A
Prof. F. K. Richtmyer of Cornell university told the Optical Society of America, meeting at the bureau of standards in Washington recently, that these invisible rays may guide pollen: bearing insects to the flowers in their search for honey. Giving signals in rays shorter than the deepest violet that we can see brings the flowers the pollen that is necessary to it in producing seed. Experiments made by Professor Richtmyer on Colorado flowers show that flowers apparently diffe: in their reflection of ultraviolet as much 'as in their visible colors.
Unhooking the Hookworm, : ~ Patliologists in the United States army service in Manila; say that almost nine out-of ten persons in the Philippines have hookworm infection. The cases are not serious, but they lower the efficiency of the Filipino worker and likewise reduce the powers of resistance against malaria tuberculosis and other ailments. The army scientists are using cal;bon tet rachloride as a specific against the parasite. This is powerful stuff, but if chemically pure, seems to be safe The doctors tried it out by giving fou: times the usual dose to prisoners un der the death penalty. They got sc¢ spry and boisterous that the only way to get rid of them was to hang them It is a big job to unhook the hook worm, but science is going to do it Give it time and practice—Los An geles Times. U : o
. Mongrel Dog’s Devotion. : The devotion of dogs was illustrat ed at a London hospital the other day A little mongrel, coming from out ¢ side street, placed its paws on the hospital railings, and by whining an¢ barking, attracted a large crowd. Al efforts to make it go away were with out success. After several minutes ¢ young nurse appeared and gazed ai the distressed creature. Then a smile spread over her features, and, gently picking up the dog, she toox it intc the hospital. It then turned out thai the dog’s master had been admittec into the hospital and his devoted pei had followed him. e
Discouraging Trap Stealing. - "A Basque sheep herder convicted of trap stealing in Lessen county, Califor nia, recently’ was fined $lOO and sen ‘tenced to jail for six months.
