QUIET KNOX
Senator Philander C. Knox of
Pennsylvania does things quietly
and easily, but none the less effect
ively. Some years ago Ex-President
Harrison called upon him u his
Pittsburg office.
"I have been requested to ask
you to serve as my associate in
some Cincinnati street cases," said
General Harrison, "and I hope you
will accept.
Knox signified his willingness to
do so and suggested that they pool
fees and divide equally.
"No," responded Harrison; "I
will take my fee and you get
yours."
After the litigation was ended
Harrison called again on Knox.
"Well," he said in a satisfied
way, "I did pretty well in that case
I received a check for $25,000."
"Is that all?" quietly asked
Knox. "I received $100,000. If
you had pooled as I originally sug
gested, general, you would have
got $02,500."
THE PRESIDENT'S "BOSS."
President Roosevelt occasionally
confesses that he meets a man he
cannot dominate. Among this class
is Senator Philander C. Knox of
Pennsylvania. When Knox was at
torney general he would prepare
his law opinions with great care and
take them over to the White House.
The president entertained and still
entertains great respect for the
Pennsylvaniaa's ability as a lawyer,
but he sometimes crew restive
when the latter refused to modify
his views.
"My cabinet is supposed to be
djj advisers," he said one day.
'Technically that is correct, but
that man" pointing to Knox is
my boss."
Use of the Divining Rod.
Numerous devices are used
throughout this country for detect
ing the presence of underground
water devices ranging in complex
ity from the forked branch of witch
hazel, peach or other wood, to
more or lean elaborate mechanical
or electrical contrivance".. Many of
the operators of these devices, es
pecially those tbat use the homo-cut
forked branch, are perfectly honest
in the belief-that the working of
the rod is influenced by agencies
usually regarded ns electric currents
following underground streams of
water that are entirely independ
ent of their bodies and many uned
ucated people have implicit faith in
their ability to locate underground
water in this way.
In experiments with a rod of this
type one of tho geologists of the
United States Geological Survey
found that at points it turned down
ward independently of his will, but
more complete tests showed that the
downturning resulted from slight
and uutil watched lor uncon
scious changes in the inclination of
his body, the effects of which were
communicatod through the arms
and wrists to the rod. No move
ment of the rod from causes out
side the body could be detected,
and it soon became obvious that the
view held by other men of science
is correct that the operation of
the "divining rod" is generally due
to unconscious movemonts of the
body or of the muscles ot the hand
The experiments made show that
these movements Lappen most fre
quently at places where tho opera
tor's experience has led him to be
lieve that water may be found. The
uselessness of the divining rod is
indicated by the facts that the rod
may be worked at will by the op
erator, that he fails to detect strong
currents of water running in tun
nels and other channels that afford
no surface indications ot water and
that his locations in limestone reg
ions where water flows in well tie
fined channels are rarely more suc
cessful than those dependent on
mere guesses. In fact, its operators
are successful ouly in regions in
which ground water occurs iu a del-
inite sheet in porous material or io
more or less clayey deposits, Biich
as the pebbly cUy or till iu which,
although a few failures occur, wells
would get water anywhero.
Ground water occurs under cer
tain definite conditions, as in hu
mid regions a stream may be pre
dicted wherever a valley is known,
so one familiar with rocks and
groundwater conditions may pre-

You can't look up and meet his eyeH;

With its care anil bitter crosses, but a

An' a good (iod must have made it

When iila hand is on m.v shoulder In a
