EDISON QUESTIONS E d is o n , who has a very low opinion of the intel lectuality of the average college student, lias come out with a new set of questions, historical, political, geographical and scientific. The Wlznrd is much too honest a man for anybody to suggest thnt he deliberately got up these posers for the purpose of humiliating his fellow citizens. So it may be admitted that the wide ground covered by the queries represents his iwn Interest In all sorts of subjects having to do with human activities. But it Is doubtful whether or not atdlity to answer correctly all or most of these questions could be any test of the intelligence of anybody. In col lege or out of it. For Intelligence and knowledge are very different things. It was once said of a distinguished man that he had a larger store of useless knowledge than anybody of Ids time. Mr. Edison would not nd- mlt that any knowledge could be use less. In fact he seems to take the atti tude of the late Lord Macaulay who was in the habit of qualifying a state ment as to something thnt nobody knew anything about but himself, by saying “ as every schoolboy knows.” As a result “ Macaulay's Schoolboy” became the proper definition of an in fant prodigy. laird Kelvin wns one of the most distinguished men of science of his time. Addressing Ids students at Glasgow University on one occasion he said that the great thing about the higher mathematics was that It could tie of no possible use to any body. Yet the fact that Kelvin and a couple of Ids friends, one In America and another in Europe, used to amuse themselves with these useless Investigations, Is, In a way. an argu ment In fuvor of Mr. Edison. It goes to show thnt certain things are worth while even If no direct advantage Is to be derived from them. Old-fashioned schoolmasters were great lielievers in the Importance of facts, and a great part of their time was passed In getting them Into the minds of the young. But tlie modem schoolmaster goes about his business In a different way. He does not try to teach facts. He does try to teach general principles. It is like the difference between the old geography and the new. Tlie old dealt with the names of places, rivers, mountains and so on. Tlie new deals with the effect of the physical shape of the earth's surface on the races scattered over It. A well-trained lawyer is not one who carries all the eases nronnd with him In his head. But be does know how to put hi» hand on anything he wants. In the same way It is more Im portant to he able to get at your facta than to know them. T h o m a s a , Copyrisht. THE CHEERFUL CHERUB . .

Like Evangeline also, it comes from tlie Greek word meaning well, or happy. Eunice Is translated to mean “ happy victory." Because of its significance, the Greek word from which Eunice was derived, wns taken over in early times by the Christians, who adored names of happy augury. The names coming from this favorite word are almost be yond enumeration, hut curiously, only a few of them have survived to mod em times. Eunice Is one of these latter. It made its aiqearance as Eunike one of the fifty Nereids. Her name straight way became popular among Greek women, hut It remained for Eunice, the Jewish mother of Timothy to give It vogue in the days of early Chris tianity. English lovera of Bible names have favored It for centuries. • nd It Is still popular in all the coun tries of Europe, though particularly adapted to English and American usage. The topas Is the taiismanic gem as signed tn Eunice. “The chrysolite of sunrise," Shelly calls it.
