Amusing Things, Those
Able to Endure Long
Very Superior Beings
Periods of Fasting
It
curious how differently peo­
ple regard human beings, William
Lyon Phelps comments in Scribner’s
Magazine. Some, upon entering a
trolley car, hate everyone elèe in the
vehicle ; some look upon the crowd at
a street comer with disgust; it must
be wonderful, to have such a sense of
superiority, to have such childlike un-,
questioning faith in one’s own splen­
did intellect.
The most amusing thing is to enter
a fashionable hotel, and as you ad­
vance to the office desk, followed by
your traveling bags, to glance for a
moment at those individuals who, hav­
ing already been there some days, now
gaze at you from their settled and
comfortable chairs. They look at you
as though you were garbage.
In the same way, many people, trav­
eling In foreign lands, hate all their
fellow countrymen whom they meet.
This scorn used to distress me, just
as I used to be disturbed by the con­
tempt of a waiter in a hotel or a but­
ler in a fashionable mansion ; now I
am only ampsed; and instead of be­
ing sorry for myself, I am sorry for
those who sit in the seat of the scorn­
ful.
One may havè a certain satisfaction
in a feeling of complacency or supe­
riority, but such an emotion is not so
desirable as the cheerfulness produced
by a general sympathy for mankind.
Some curious facts with respect to
the capacity for fasting as exhibited
by various animals are cited by Sieg-
mund TJrabin in the Umchau (Frank­
furt), according to the Detroit News.
He begins by observing:
“The power of the camel to do with­
out taking food is regarded in most
works on zoology as representing sci­
entific peculiarities of animals. But if
there were a general knowledge of the
ability of many animals to fast for
very long periods of time these in­
stances would not be so overem­
phasized. It is, indeed, generally
known that even mammals are able to
fast for months during their winter hi­
bernation, but it seems to be almost
unknown that the same power exists
among the lower animals. The power
of fasting is much more widespread in
them than was formerly supposed.”
Mr. Urabin then refers to an experi­
ence of his youth when he put certain
snails which had already withdrawn
into their shells and closed the opening
thereof, as is their custom, into a box,
whereupon he forgot them for a period
of more than a year and a half. He
supposed they were inevitably dead,
but when he put them into a vessel
filled with water, much to his surprise,
they came out of their shells and
crawled gaily about on the table.
Cow’s Milk Largely
Used in Manufactures
Should the humble cow ever aspire
to trade-mark her products, the aver­
age shopper would be amazed at the
labels "Made from milk” which would
adorn his purchases—purchases rang­
ing from horn-rim spectacles to chess­
men, magazines to radio sets.
Three per cent of casein in cow’s
milk is the raw material for a kaleido­
scopic array of manufactured products.
Nor does this take into account that at
our present rate of consumption every
12 persons consume the milk product
of one cow.
Bread has a reputation of being the
“staff of life,” but milk more nearly
fulfills that definition. Substitutes for
our customary breads may be had; but
there is no substitute for milk. Even
the elimination of the casein from
milk, the element 'Which provides most
of the by-products, would be incon­
venient. Chemically, casein is the prin­
cipal nitrogenous constituent of m ilk;
popularly it is the "curd," and its first
and principal use is for cheese.
Alas, Quite Uncivilized
If there is any doubt that the inhab­
itants of New Guinea are uncivilized
beings, we need cite, only their atti­
tude toward paying taxes—-which, ac­
cording to the Argonaut, is as fol­
lows :
Travelers in New Guinea occasion­
ally pick up good stories concerning
native manners and peculiarities.. A
tax collector had an amusing experi­
ence when he was on his rounds. He
had been to one village to collect
taxes, and when he left he 'was met by
the people of a neighboring village.
"What wrong have we done that we
should be ignored by the govern­
ment?” they asked. “Conic, we have
money; we will show it to you. The
idea of those Kerepunu people paying
taxes and we not ! We are just as
proud as they.” .
The tax collector had to pacify them
by taking their money.—Youth’s Com­
panion.
Goths a Divided Race
The Goths were a warlike race
which at one time inhabited the coun­
try In the vicinity of the Baltic, and
afterward moved toward the Blade sea
and the lower Danube where, about
250 B. C., it divided into two branches.
Those that remained in the eastern
part of the Roman empire were termed
western (Yisi) Goths, says the Kansas
City Times. The Ostrogoths, after rav­
aging eastern Europe, established un­
der Theodoric a kingdom in Italy
which lasted from 493 to 554 A. D.,
when the country was recovered by
Narses and annexed to the eastern
empire. The Visigoths, after various
successes against the Romans, sacked
Rome under Alaric in 410. They af­
terward settled in Spain and founded
a kingdom that lasted until that coun­
t s was conquered by the Saracens.
