How little Js knowledge, how limitefe
thought!
How helpless and puny are we!
We think what we hear and believe as
we're taught.
But learning and science seem little or
naught
In the solving of life's mystery.
Confronted by marvels on sea and on
plain.
And in words that above us revolve.
Our mucn-vaunted reason may try to
explain.
But only to find all our efforts in vain
Creation's great problems to solve.
We study the planets and think we are
wise.
We measure the orbits they trace;
Wo weigh the "bright stars and can
reckon their size.
But none can determine the height of the
skies
Or measure the infinite space.
r All things that are born in their grave
are ouuu iaiu,
Time seems to the living a foe;
We wonder why anything ever was made
If only to bud, and to blosBom, and fade
Or vanish like fast-melting snow.
There are those who live long with honor
and fame
! And some In their infancy die.
And some have to struggle with sorrow
and shame?
We woftder why all of us are not the
same:
The wisest can never tell why.
We turn to our reason to settle a doubt.
Yet know not what' reason my be;
Its substance and form we know nothing
about,
The cause of its being we cannot find
out.
So .dull and so foolish are we.
There seems no foundation where reason
may stand
In realms where no mortal has trod;
Infinity mocks us on every hand.
Our learning and logic are ropes made of
sand;
There's nothing to rest In but God.
-Frank Beard in Ram's Horn.
Why Razors Get Tired.
"Do you know why we dip a razot
in warm water before we begin shaving,..and
do you know why some ignorant
men say a razor is 'tired?' asked
the barber. "Well, this is all due to
the fact that a razor is a sa-w. not a
knife, and it works like a saw, not like
si knife. Examined under the microscope,
its edge, that looks so 3mootb'
to the naked eye, is seen to have innumerable
and fiae saw teeth. When
these teeth get clogged with dirt all
the honing and strapping in the world
will do no good?the razor is dull, and
nothing will sharpen it. Then is the
time the ignorant say it is 'tired' and
stop U3ing it, but the wise know it is
only clogged.
"The wise, though, don't suffer
their razors to get clogged;. They dip
them in warm water before they use
them and thus the teeth are kept
clean. It Is because a razor is a saw
that lather is used on the beard. The
lather doesn't soften the beard, as so
many people think; it stiffens it, so
that it will present a firm and resisting
surface to the razor."?Philadeli

Not since humanity began delving
into the mysteries of the existence of
primitive man has a discovery been
made (says Science Sittings) so rich
in its suggestivencss of the home life
of prehistoric races as that made by
the United States revenue cutter Bear
on her recent cruise to the Arctic
ocean. A bouse T^uilt by human beings
at leasi .s.uuu years ago, ana prouaoiy
of an antiquity far greater, was discovered
by Alaskan natives near Point
Barrow, and many of the utensils used
by the people who made it a habitation
were f.ecured. Some hatchets, stone
knive?, and other stone and bone implements
belonging to races that flourished
before the dawn of history, have
frequently been found, but never before
has a house in which they lived
been found preserved through the
wrecks of time and all the elemental
catastrophes that have strewn the surface
of the earth with ruin and death.

CAREER OF POPE 1
In the little town of Carpineto,
perched on a high eminence in the Diocese
of Anagnl, Italy, already famous
as the birthplace of four Popes?Innocent
III., Gregory IX., Alexander IV.
and Boniface VIII.?Gioacbino Pecci
(Leo XIII.) was born, March 2, 1810.
He was a member of an old and illustrious
family of Siena. Toward the
middle of the thirteenth century the
Pecci family already wielded great
power in the country. They soon became
so powerful that when Pope
.Martin V. visited Siena he was very
comfortably quartered, together with
all hi" court, in the house of the brothers
Giovanni and Giacomo Pecci. who

florins.
When the future Leo XIII. was born
1t was a dark time for the Papacy,
Italy being then under the heel of Napoleon
and Pope Pius VII. a prisoner
and divested of his temporal power.
The clouds lifted, however, in 1814.
when, as one result of Napoleon's overthrow,
Pope Pius returned to his sovereignty.
He at once vestored the Society
of Jesus, which bad been suppressed
by Clement XIV., and to the
Jesuits the Count and Countess PeccI
intrusted the education of the future
Tope.
In 1832 the young student entered the
academy or College for Noblp Ecclesiastics.
the nursery of most destined
for a diplomatic or administrative'career
under the Papal Government.
There he was educated in civil and ecclesiastical
jurisprudence, as well as
theology. In 1833 he won a prize of
$132 by a thesis on the subject of ''Immediate
Appeals to the Roman Pontiff
in Person."
The Asiatic cholera was sweeping
over Italy. Mgr. Pecci. not being yet
in priest's orders, could not minister
to the spiritual wants and comfort of
the plague-stricken, but he was active
and devoted in assisting his chief, Cardinal
Sala. in his important work of superintendence
over the cholera hospitals.
It may have been due to his anxiety
to serve the sick and dying in a
priestly character that, on November
13 of that memorable year, he received
Sub-Dcacouship and Denconsliip at the
hands of Cardinal Odescalchi, the
Pope's Vicar-General, in the Chapel of
St. Stanislas Kostka, in the Church of
"St. Andrew on the Qulrjnal." On the
last day of that same year?1S37?Cardinal
Odescalchi, in the private chapel
of his residence, in the vicariate, conferred
the order of priesthood on Joachim
Pecci.
whiia utiii in his tliirtv-third vear
Mgr. Fecci was appointed Apostolic
Nuncio at the court of Belgium, with
the titular dignity of Archbishop of
Damietta. In the struggle between
secular and religious education he
strove to show the superiority of the
religious method by making the religious
schools better than the secular.
Meantime Gregory XVI. had died,
and Pius IX. ascended the Papal
throne in time for the exciting scenes
which made l.is Pontificate memorable.

fore it had spread from one end of the

the tact and wisdom of Archbishop
Pecci prevented a serious outbreak,
and J-is person.il interposition was sufficient
to stay the rising tumult.

.HO XIII. IN DETAIL, .
Chryflogonus. This ancient Romanchurch
had its origin in the time of1
Constantine and was rebuilt in A. D.
731 by Gregory III.
On February 20, 1878, Cardinal Peccl
was elected, after three ballots, to be
the successor of Pius IX.
The secret balloting which preceded
the momentous choice was of unusual
length and the proceedings of the dignitaries
who took part in it were, it
would seem, much agitated.
On Tuesday, February 19. the first

place. Sixty-one Cardinals were present.
Cardinal Joachim Pood's name
was read out twenty-three times, but.
though far ahead of all others it lacked
the necessary two-thirds vote. In the
afternoon another ballot was taken.
Cardinal Feed's name was announced
thirty-eight times. lie had fervently
prayed that he might escape the great
burden which he deemed himself unable
and unworthy to bear.
The following morning, February 20.
I87S. the balloting was resumed, and
Cardinal Pecci's name was read fortyfour
times, the two-thirds majority

was canouicallv elected supreme 1*0:1[
tiff of the Church of Christ. To the
1 question of he sub-dean asking l?y
what name he wished to be called he
answered "By the name of Leo XIII."
It is supposed, and not without good
reason, that the advanced age of Cardinal
Pecei. his apparent feebleness
and the belief that he would not live
very long to fill the throne which some
of his companions in the Sacred College
coveted, had much to do with his
election.
The ability which he revealed in Beneven'o
he has since displayed as ruler
of the Iloman Catholic Church. Although
he ascended the throne at a moment
of great difficulty he showed himself
quite able to achieve his heavy
task.
His predecessor, Pius IX.. had been
a temporal as well as a spiritual sovereign.
Pope Leo XIII. had an effective
spiritual jurisdiction only.

w?s not disclosed to thera. His fragile
hand was not outstretched above their
heads for the expected benediction.
Like Pope Pius, Leo XIII. also was "a
prisoner."
But there was a wide and striking
difference between the manner in
which Leo XIII. labored to attain his
ends and that of bluff Pop#* Tius.
He strove, for instance, rather for
the principle than for the material reality
of the.temporal power. He would
possibly have contented himself with
exercising sovereignty over that portion
of Rome across the Tiber on
which stands St. Peter's and the Vatican,
and a strip of territory extending
to the seaport of Civlta Veccbia, so
that he might have been able to receive
ambassadors and pilgrims alike
on Papal territory.
Without conceding anything to Khig
Humbert and hig successive Ministers,
while openly defying them at times
and making protests against tbf repeated
interferences of the monarchy with
the cherished privileges and with the
property of the Church, Leo XIII. conciliated
rather than estranged his ad
versa r lea.
By Ills diplomacy, his foresight and
the curious shrewdness which distinguished
him he also won the good wiU
or respect of foreign nations.
It was at the beginning of his reign
his ardent wish to bind the Papacy to
all the courts and Tulers of the earth
by diplomatic ties.
As time Tolled on he modified this
ambition, and made it his most zealous
aim to gain the good will, the honor
and. support not of the rulers but of
their peoples.
And, as we know, his prudence, his
sagacity. his horror of extremes did
not exclude a cortain quiet, dogged
firmness. It was this firmness that led
Bismarck to accord the Pope a deference
which he reserved for few. Indeed
Pope Leo and Paul Kroger were
the only statesmen wliora he thoroughly
and honestly admired.
OF POrE LEO xnr.
Those who were admitted to the in
lunacy of Loo a III. toward the close
of his beneficent career are weH aware
of the not perhaps unnatural and most
innocent pride witli which he regarded
his own health and longevity. This
pride occasioned his physician, Dr.
Lapponi, muc'i anxiety, as it frequently
led Leo XIII. to overwork himself
quite needlessly. Almost to the end
the late Pope's eyesight was unimpaired.
His interest in the social, political
and spiritual affairs not only of
Catholics but of humanity at large,
was. even in the last months of bis
I'ontiticate, phenomenal.
Pope Leo was always a man of extremely
simple tastes, which ho
brougirt from his ehildhocd'3 home at
Carpineto, amid the hills, and possibly
his cautious temperament, curiously
combined with power and unhesitating
decision, was inherited from his
mountaineer ancestors.
For his personal use Iiis Holiness selected
instead of one of the numerous
magnificent suits of the Vatican a few
simple rooms containing little beyond
absolutely necessary articles. His bed
stands in an alcove, separated from a
larger room by a curtain hanging

and between the latter and the wall is
a couch. The rest of the room was
used as a study, and contains a writing
luble with a crucifix; a chair on a carpeted
platform, chairs and tables for
the Pope's secretaries, writing materials,
and a few books, among which
are the works of Dante, Virgil and
Horace, besides a Bible.
The Pope, even when in good health,
slept only four or five hours each night,
and often in the morning his bed was
undisturbed and the Pope was found
asleep in the chair before his writing
table.

FARMERS MAKE BROOMCORN CORNER
The Crop Is Short and They Aro Holding
Ont For 8?00 a Ton.
Chicago.?Advices from Areola, III.,
say that broomcorn farmers are holding
their stock for higher prices. Within
the last two weeks prices have advanced
materially, $110 a ton being
paid, but farmers will not let It go at
this figure. They say they will hold it
until they get $200 a ton.
Tresent advices Indicate a shortage
of 10,000 tons in the Illinois crop. Nebraska
lias a shortage of fifty per cent.,
and Kansas is not expected to come
np to the tonuage of last year. Missouri
has usually furnished 2000 tons,
but this year it is not expected that the
crop will cxceed one-fourth of that
amount. This takes from 13.000 to 14,- i
000 tons from the yearly output, leaving
Oklahoma with an indefinite
aiuouut.

_____ . .
Topcka.' Kan.--One squad of Eastern
college and -high school students whlc'.i x
was started from Topeka to the liarvest
fields of Ness County failed to '-'<3
reach the destination to which it was ..jj
assigned by thfe'State Employment Di- .
rector.
The train on which the students were
traveling reached the little town of
Otis, on the line between Barton and
Ruah counties, aJiortly after daylight
It was boarded there by a crowd ot
wheat growers, who were determined
to have harvest hands at any coet.
The students were asleep, but the
fnrmnra aakpd their orrand In the coun
try, and when told that the men w<?re
harvesters they were forced to leave
the train. Several of the yctftug men .
were willing to get off at Otis. bat
some of tbpse who had, promised the >-*
Employment- Plrectaf tint they;1 would
go to Ness County Were detemiped to >i
remain on the train. Some of the a til- ;1
letes among .these made it very- interesting
for the farmers for'a shartjttme, '
but the latter fough; to save their
crops, and when the train moved on .
the students, barely awakened and gfl
badly disheveled, stood on the station ^
platform, willing to accept the fortune#
of war and go to the harvest field? ^
with their determined employers.
None of the young men were hurt in tt-jjBk
the contest, but several carried pieces * 'p
of car furniture, which they had torn
away in an ondravor to stay on the
train. Had the young men understood
Kansas conditions they would feave
reached tlieir destination in Ness
County without trouble by telling'ttbe *?'
Otis farmers that they were bound'for
the mountains and." did not intend*'to j |
work in the harvest fields.
The average Kansas farmer believe# jjSj
he has the right to use all the available Jtj
labor he can find, and has no scruples
against using that which has b?en con- . &,
signed to his neighbor.
