A * ^ iz ' L wring VeriuS. The Rokeby Yenus, the beautiful painting in the British National gal lery which was slashed by a militant suffragist, has been so deftly repaired that the damage done cannot be de tected by the ordinary observer. As a concession to properly accredited art students the gallery, which was closed to the public after the outrage, has been reopened to them. Trying to Do Too Much. Many business men are coming to H the conclusion that they would accom plish more if they attempted less. Life is becoming overcrowded. A succes sion of little things fill the time thai could more wisely be used for the con templation of great tasks and the con templation of lofty purposes. To sim plify is to strengthen. Life Is more than a mt>re round of engagements; it is a conscious enjoyment and employ ment of the spirit's highest capacities Starvation in Japan. Failure of the rice crop and the fishing industry have brought the dis tricts of Tohoku and Hokkaido, north ern Japan, one of the worst famines that the country has faced in a hun dred years. Cold weather prevented the rice from heading out, and unusu ally cold currents have kept the fish at great distances from the shore. A conservative estimate places the number who are now in urgent need of food at 200,000. April Fool Day. There are all sorts of theories as to the origin of the merry anniversary, Dut tne most piausiDie is me one which gives the custom its use in France, about 1564. France was the first European country to adopt the reformed calendar, and as a result the New Year day was carried back to January 1, and mock calls were made on April 1, as a joke on such as had forgotten the change in the calendar. 01 CHAF ISL I South* Premi Thursd< Greenville, Abbevil on the foliowii Leave Greenville Leave College PI Leave Piedmont Leave Pelzer Leave Williamstc Leave Bel ton...

To any person who haB all his senses about him, a quiet walk, over not more than ten or twelve miles of road a day, is the most amusing of all trav eling; and all traveling becomes dull in exact proportion to its rapidity. Go ing by railroad I do not consider us traveling at all; it is merely "being sent" to a place, and very little differ ent from becoming a parcel.? Ruskin. Recognize Laws of "Chance." The laws of "chance," or the theory of probabilities, have been adopted by the men of science. Until recently the only persons who bothered their heads about the problems that arise in calculating probabilities were gam biers and speculative mathematicians. Now the student of physics is obliged to understand them and use them con stantly. When Vapor Is Dry. It is a popular misconception that aqueous vapor and ice are wet. They are in themselves dry, and become wet only when they turn to water. "So dry is aqueous vapor that it will dry any moist object that it comes in con tact with," states an eminent author ity, Mr. M. Mott-Smith. Superheated steam, before it condenses, -Js a dry gas. Ice feels wet if the temperature of the hand is sufficient to melt it; as Ice it is dry. Too Late. Lots of men know a good thing the minute the other fellow sees it first.? Puck.

Wu Ting Fang 6ri Amftrleart Children, The youth of America have not un naturally caught the spirit of their eid ers, so that even children consider themselves almost on a par with their parents, while the parents, on the other hand, also treat them as if they were equals, and allow them the ut most freedom, writes Wu Ting Fang In Harper's Magazine. While a Chi nese child renders unquestioning obedience to his parents' orders, such obedience as a soldier yields to his superior officer, the American child must have the whys and the where fores duly- explained to' him, and the reason for his obedience made clear. It is not his parent that he obeys, Out expediency and the dictates of reason. Studies Garbage System. Mrs. Flora Spiegelberg of Riverside, New York, has begun a campaign for the dustless and sanitary collection of ashes and garbage. She has complete data of the methods, of handling ashes and garbage in 150 cities in Germany, where the work is so well done that neither the ashes nor the garbage are exposed to the air from the time they leave the basement of the house un til they reach the incinerating plant. She says the present system in New York is simply terrible. ShJ says that when ashes are mixed with garbage It helps to make the latter more sani tary. "Sterilized" Business.
