LOTUS HAS PLACE IN LEGEND Accenting to Mythology the Name Was Given to Flower by the God dess Heb. The mysterious Egyptian lotus bns been more Identllled with the world's history than any other flower. The phrase "lotus eaters" is a com mon one In literature, and Is used to describe those who live In a dream world. The food iimde from the dried seeds of the Egyptian variety seem to huve had mi effect similar to vari ous opium products, and once In the clutch of the ilniR the lotus enters forgot both pi1H( mirt family, and went about, oblivion of demands made by society, kin or even their own physical wauls. The lotus Is closely Identified with the ancient F.gvpilii religion, and wan dedicated to Osiris, no Egyptian think ing of approach, ng a temple without three of the blosi-onia In his hand. The name was (riven It, according to mythology, when a beautiful nymph of the same name, heartbroken over the coldness of Hercules, went to Hebe for sympathy, nnd by her was trans formed Into a flower. The sturdy hero taking ship shortlv afterward with Hylas, a youth he loved as his Own Biitl on mo in tan la land where the latter landed and searched for a sprlnp. He found one In the center of a pool, the pool being covered with beautiful blossom. A Hylas stared at them. Lotus t iir nymph form, emerged from the blos som and drew h!m to her anus, and then to the depths of the pool, where he drowned. Drawing an Audience.

Where Money Vas By II. LOUIS RAYBOLD i9 Itli, hr McCKrt Nptf SrS'lirau. i "There goes 1'rolenwr 1-ailniu, again with the Trem-ott girl!' and Kulli Cole drew her com paulon's ntf-fil l,,u to the oi: upm.ls ot a low-bun:, umi'oou rumlxier, one of whom raised his hat as they led by. ' The -woman with Ml Cole iiuddeil pleavautly. Khe was a slim, graceful pcrsvii, not at all shewing her tinny four years, nor t-ihibttlng In ber at tractive fuce any of the ravages which might posiiibly be exiweied after twelve )ear speut instructing giK gllug, irresiHinslve girls lu the Intrica cies of tireek acceuts and dt-cluu-slons. "He's rushing her for fair," rum bled on Miss Cole, "and who io blsuie bin) If be believes In that old adage, ion't luarry for money, but go where money is!' Her money must look pretty good to anybody strug gling along nowadays on the salary of a professor In a woman's college Hut uliat she sees In hint is what gets me !" Hilda French turned her hind away to hide au aoimyliJi; but uucoii iroliuble UuU. "iius very iiilerexl ing to talk to," kl.e returned quite steadily. "Well, you ounlit to know, consider ing lie's the heud of your deimrtuieiit," aud Itulli difiiilfsed the subject for something more vital to ber own Inter ests. ... but Hilda's thoughts did not change their chuiinel, even though she man aged very creditable replies to the other's Iticoiotequeut remarks. And she wnxu'l wondering what Cells I'rescott saw in John Latham. What did John Latham see In Cellal It must be something visible to no other man, for after six seasons as a bud, C'elia still bloomed unplucked from the family tree, although three younger sisters hud blossomed and gone their way to adm it bomes of their own. The truth of the matter was that John Latham's heud was temporarily turned. When a man gets to be forty unmarried, almost any young thing not too homely, posseting clothes which in themselves are a lore, and every kind of device for making the time pass pieaKiiiitly, such as automobiles, speed boms, wonderful summer aud winter homes, can get In ber work without liny help from Cupid. ' llili'a, watching the iiffair not disin terestedly, was convinced Cellu would succeed. And when one memorable uf teruiion she handed In tier resignation as instructor in Greek and It was re ceived with Just the amount of polite regret that might be expected, she felt sure Ceiia bad succeeded. So Hilda quietly arranged ber things in exquisite order for ber successor, locked ber door for the lust time, gave tbe key to the Janitor and went to live Well, John Latham did find time in between his pursuit of the heiress to wonder where und on what Hilda went to live. She had said she wasn't accepting another position, and her salary hud hardly been enough to enable ber to save sufficient to retire ou. Wltb her departure the man, for some reason, felt a strange sense of loss. - And us time went on, be real ized slowly but surely Unit Hilda French bad been his compensation for his work-fes, just that. Always, beneath the fret of examinations to be corrected, of marks to be com puted, of students who blundered cal lously through the beauties of his be loved. Greek, hud been the restfulness ot her serene, dependable personality. What a fool he had been! Blind to ber wonderfuluess when he saw ber every day, and only awakened to tt when he no longer knew where to find her. For lie had let her go without ascertaining her address. Finally he approached limb Cole, between whom and himself waged a perpetual war of the modern languages versus the classics. Miss Cole gave the Information. About that time Celia, Inheriting with her sister a portion of a legacy from some eccentric tincle out West who bad made a sudden fortune from an abandoned mine, had devoted a part of it to the purchase of first edi tions in which the dear professor must help her. " The following evening a middle aged man, a bit stoop-shouldered yet with undaunted dignity, stood per plexed at the entrance of the Belle terre apartments, those ultra-fasblon-able, albeit conservative, dwellings on the windy turn of the Lukeview drive. John Latham, turning his back on wealth, was seeking love, expecting to find it inhabiting a humble, out-of-the-way abode. Ushered presently by a soft-stepping, . uniformed maid into a room whose very atmosphere , breathed tasteful luxury, Latham brightly solv ed the problem. Hilda French was taking care of some apartment In the owner's absence. Ah that was It, uu Soubtedly 1 As Hilda entered in a clinging, trailing gown which set off her slen der figure so that she remlnled him of some precious Greek vnse, Latham forgot completely his surmises as to why she was there forgot almost why he was there himself forgot every thing but the loveliness of her. "Hilda!" he cried, impulsively, as they shook hands, for never before, except to himself, had he addressed her thus. "Vou u. t utiow how I ve missed you !" "It's pleasant to be tuism-d." said Hilda, and the iihikIc of her voice In bis ears robbed (he little l-ioiuiuiunj uf Its coiniiionpiactiieHS. "ill tact, 1 culne to er -well, that is, after you went, 1 found that " for a skllllul corner of translated lireek phranes, the ujub was bundling dread fully. liut, "Yesf" encouraged Hilda, smil ing ever so gently into Ids eyes. "OU, my dear I" cned tbe man. sud denly casting lo tbe wimis ine Hupp.'ic love lore be bad rehearsed and was Dy ing lit vaiu to rtvki.. Longingly be held out bis arms, the oiuau came, and '!. desperate moment was over. Then, a tittle later: "1 haven't much to oiler you, dear.

REWARDS MOT ALL ' EQUAL Evidently Some Pople Place a Higher Valuation on Their Lives Than Do Others. A week or two ago a tourist scram bling oo tbe cliffs at Lulworib ou the Dorsetshire (England) coast, slipped aud fell, and though not injured, was lauded lu such a position that be could neither get up nor down, says a correspondent. There be clung in great danger until tbe coast guards arrived. In order to rescue him a man had to be let down at the end of strong ropes, which were hied to bars driven into tbe ground. It was a diffi cult and dangerous Job, but at last they got the man up in safety. He thanked them, and banded theni $L As one of the rescuers said dryly: "Probably be knew best the value of bis life." Tbe case brings to mind another mentioned in a lecture given by Dr. Atkiu Swan. In a recent Alpine expedition bis guide was able to res cue three climbers wbo were in dan- I ger of their lives. They rewarded him with two francs (nominally 40 cents!) To conclude, here is a very different Incident. A farmer's lubor er In Yorkshire pulled bis employer's Utile boy out of a pond Into which he hud fallen. The farmer found that the lad was anxious to emigrate, so paid his fare to Australia and gave him $riOO capital. Now for the se quel.. Twenty-two years Inter the fanner, now a very old man, received word that his former protege had died unmarried, and left him a sum of over $40,000. Maxim Was BuEy in War. From Hudson Maxim the naval con sulting board received In the war a series of inventions and improvements which proved valuable, says the New York Evening Post. One of these had to do with a new method of making gun tubes by utilizing great hydraulic pressure and thus permitting the man ufacture of a gun in one piece. Another was an invention for mount lug large guns on railroad cars and securing the cars in concrete emplace ments. In the last two years the army has been devoting considerable attention to mounting big guns In this manner. Mr. Maxim also evolved an illumi nating flare which was adopted by the navy, a sea sled to serve as a floating platform for a depth bomb gun and a machine pun mount which could be raised, lowered and operated with Safe ty by a gunner In a trench. . Satisfaction In Accomplishment. There's a satisfaction In doing what others find hard to dp. The secret lies In the mind. Some folks get rich by doing what Is their recognized rights. Otilere get rich by bringing something new to the attention of men and showing them how the new thing will bless the race. Thlscreates de mand and causes riches to flow to him who controls It But this new thing must come from your mind. Think and do and the world will take note of you. Cease thinking and you put up the sign of limitation and failure. Lesson From John Bunyan. The shepherds led the pilgrims to Mount Charity, where they , showed them a man that had a bundle of cloth lying before him. out of which he cut garments for the poor, yet his bundle or roll of cloth was never the less. "This," said the shepherds, "Is to show you that he who has a heart to give to the poor shall never want wherewith al." John Bunyan. .hO TO tV.F.LCOK FC12LES icrbert Spencer's Fu:int a Trial te mcs Who Did Not Know Hie Rial Kinur.tu. More exttinples of Herbert Spencer's i-riiaiing foil.Un ami extrawiiinary eltliiexs are siierltiions. but twe et hem will bear the telling. A rrieud had the opportunity of s ng iu full working order tbe famous ear-stoppers that Spencer used te wear. 1'robaMy c.me frivolous re mark' of the friend obtained him this privilege, for In the middle of the meal Hpeneer, wltb s fixed glance at him, pressed the spring that closed tbe bole of each ear. After luncheon the host and fiieod sat chatting In the garden, when there came an invitation from Spencer te take a drive with him lo bis mhber tlred carriage, the message adding that "we are not te talk." When they were returning front 8penir'e funeral Sir Michael Foster told this friend tbe following story: Wnccr detested cushions, and the trouble was to rind a chair that was hard in the seat and yet comfortable. -Ho, at a lam resource, be had. a seat covered with some Indies of soft plas ter of parts, and sitting on that made an Impress from which a wooden mat of an exactly fitting pa i tern was cut Againxt a certain undeniable fus siness there should tie set the fait that Sncer bad a soft place In a heart that seemed adamant, snd there are stories of spontaneous acts of kind ness and of ofiers of help to the trou bled und bereaved that redeem much unlovely behavior. HE HAD BUSINESS ELSEWHERE Diner Didn't Care to Wait to See tbe Result of His Carelessness With the Pie. Dr. Fabyan Franklin has a friend who vouches for this story. Coming downtown on the elevated one moo ing, he was struck by the explosive temper of a red-faced, choleric uian on a seat nearby. This man. annoyed because a youth facing him had placed his feet on the seut which the man oc cupied, burst out In a storm of pas sion, denouncing the youth In tones that aroused the attention of passen gers In the adjoining cars. He finally stamped out on the platform at a stop, boiling with rape. That noon Doctor Franklin's friend went Into a self -service restaurant for lunch. Getting a plate of vegetables and meat, and one of pumpkin pie, be placed them on the broad extension arm of one of the chairs provided for lunchers. and made room beside thest for his enp of coffee. As he was fin ishing his lunch he reached for the pumpkin pie. and clumsily knocked It oft the chair arm ; To his horror he saw tt disappear into the gaping pocket of a large over coat carelessly flung over tbe next chair and then he perceived the own er of the overcoat bearing down npos him, all unconscious of the accident, with a plnteful of food. It was the same red-faced, choleric man whose frightful temper had amazed the ele-vt-ted passengers! , As soon as the culprit had per ceived that he waited to see no more. New York Evening Tost. An Expressman. Speaking of Juries, a veteran Cleve lander recalls the difficulty experienced in securing a jury in a noted alleged poisoning case of many years ago. One of the men summoned was both dense and deaf, with a limited knowl edge of English, defects which were developed as his examination pro ceeded. "Huve you formed or expressed any opinion regarding this ?ase?" the law yer for the defense asked. "Hay?" "I say, have you formed or expressed formed or expressed do you get thatr "Yes, yes. Farmed or expressed. Sure, I haf farmed nnd now I am ex pressing. Dot's all right." But the expressman was excused. Amber Long In Use. The modern use of oil of amber, both externally and internally, is often mentioned. It has been denied that amber was known to the Greeks is very early times, the Greek electron having been used as a name both fcr It and for an amalgam of gold r.- 1 silver, a species of gold ore wast,- " down by the Pactolus; but amber b - actually been found at Mycenae, pi...; the fact that the electron necklarr mentioned in" Hie ""Odyssey Is said te have been a gift from Phoenicia means much. , . The Phoenicians are known to have Introduced amber Into the East, and Herodotus says it was brought from the. River Eridanus in the extreme West of Europe. Pets of Prisoners. Visitors to prison have noticed that prisoners. like other folk, are fond ef pets and that their pet is generally a canary or other species of bird. There hi a reason for this : A bird takes np little room and requires little food, whereas larger animals coul.i not very easily be kept In confinement. Most prisons have rules forbidding Inmates to keep pets, but visitors to aeversl Of the smaller prisons have sometimes observed mice as well as birds and sn occasional dog sharing cells with pris oners. In one of the large state pris ons a long-term prisoner was permit ted to have ss peta several dogs of ths toy variety. New York Times.
