In Luke 3:23 It says: “And Jesus him self began to be about thirty years of age.” This was when he began his ministry, a fter he had been baptised In the Jordan by John the Buptlst. But the duration of the ministry of Jesus Is not specifically stated In the Scripture. Most Bible scholars think It lasted about three years. This would make Jesus thirty-three ypars of age at the tim e of the crucifixion. ’ There Is no direct historical dutu on the subject.— Pathfinder Magazine.______ D ts e o o e ry o t V a lu e One day an English physician, who loved growing green things, found on the Island of T rinidad a few tiny grasallke plants In a ribbon canefleld T he Englishman, delighted that he had ranght nature napping and fonnd out one of her secrets, took the little plants to his home garden, and In due time he discovered that he had sev eral fine new varieties of sugar cane. One of these new varieties was car ried to Haw aii, where It multiplied and produced a new race of sugar cane that w ill grow on poor land. In a handful of years Cubs fairly won the nickname, “The Sugar Bowl of the World." So great Is the de mand for Cuban cane sugar that she baa never been able to satisfy her eager buyers.— M arian Benton Bal- lard. In St. Nicholas. Luncheon Club Rules ' in Queen Anne’s Time Wa think luncheon clubs are new ■tuff, forgetting there Is noth'ng new under the sun. Rumbling through ray ' Addison the other day, I found that the Spectator's club, organized by Brother E ditor Addison, hud some rules that have a fam iliar ring and some unfamiliar. For example: None shnH be admitted Into the clnli that la of the same trade with any member of It. I t any member swears or curses, his neighbor may give him a kick upon the shins. I f any member tells stories In the club that are not true, he shall forfeit fo r every third lie a half-penny. I f a member brings Ids wife Into the club, he shall pay for whatever she drinks or smokes. I f any member's w ife comes to fetch him home from the club, she shall speak to him without the door.— Merle Thorpe In Nation’s Business Magazine. O r i M t a l S fr w d b It la really quite lmpeoelble ta (trow a comparison between our wide aad spacious avenues and boulevard« and the crowded, smelly bazaar streets of the Orient, Pierre Van O’Paateer aw serfs In the Atlanta Constitution. They are built and run on entirely different standards. There may be grace, majesty and beauty In a noble, poplar-lined thoroughfare, yet tourists go to the end of the world to aee a scene as Ben Sharar describes : “I en- tered a long stone passage, lined with shops, more a flight o f steps than a street I moved through the bowels ) of a great market lit with occasional shafts of the sun which dropped through niunhoies In the overhead vaulting. . . . I t was bound to gether with stone arches. It w a s . hung with draper’s goods, dead sheep, I shoes and kerchiefs. I t was thronged with an unwashed multitude, their I heads bobbing up from the lower depths as they climbed the grade, tur- butied beaus, skulleapped heads, fuzzy- haired heads, wimpled heads, tar- hooshed heads, calpacked heads, der by-crowned heads, nose-and-earringed heuds. I t choked w ith noise. It brayed with asses and tinkled w ith camels. I t dauced with gesticulation. Found Compensation for Her Affliction A clergyman called on aa old lady who had been bedridden for some years. “ Weil, Mrs. Davies," be said, "and how are you todayT” "Oh, I ’m pretty well, thank you,” was the cheerful answer. “Ah, that’s right," said the clergy man, sympathetically. “I hardly ex pected to find you In such good spirits, considering your affliction. I waa afraid I should find you downhearted." “No, no, s lrt" she cried. Interrupt ing him. “No, no, Indeed, sir. I ’ve much to be thankful for. Why, only the other night, when that house Just opposite was on fire, 1 couldn't help thinking of all the poor people crash ing ench other in the street, and many of them not getting a sight of the fire at all, while here was I, all nice and comfortable In bed, and I could see It beautifully through my window w ith out even turning over I Oh, no, I've a lot to be thankful for.”— London T it- Bits. Whence Cocoa Comes The cocoa plant is now grown In many districts of the tropical belt, and its consumption, In one form or another, has Increased all over the world. It Is an evergreen, and la eqnnl In size to a well-grown apple tree. The pods, about eight Inches long, grow out of the trunk, and are red, yellew, black nnd purple, according to the season. There are twenty or thirty pale red beans Inside each pod, embedded In soft white pulp. Cocoa groves are never planted solely with cocoa trees. Although It grows best In hot coun tries, It Is delicate, and haa to be pro tected from the aun, and for this pur pose forest trees are planted In the groves. Some of theae grow to a great height and have a tufted head like natural sunshude. These protecting trees are called “Cacao Madre,” or cocoa-mother. S to tm m in ff to W o rk Pacific Islanders are probably the cleanest people on earth, for they spend a good part of every day In the water, nnd may bo said to be almost as amphibious as seals. The children learn to swim almost as soon ns they learn to walk.

W ltjt the skin constantly greased w ith coconut oil, the pulp of the b it ter green ornnge makes n good soap and lathers freely. Dame Nature also supplies them with scrubbers, the basks of the coconut, nnd this they apply to their shining bodies very vig orously. T heir towel Is provided by the sun and wind. W hen W indow s "Sweat” The sweating of windows Is due to Imperfect ventilation, and If perfect ventilation could be obtained It would probably give the most effective re- ■ults. In many cases openings are made In the sash, top nnd bottom, so that a current of cold nlr may cover the Interior side of the glass. In some Instances, where the sweating of w in dow* Is not so bad, M grains of glyc erin la dissolved In 1 liter of alcohol (88 per cent), to which a little amber ell le added.

The toughest papers are now made from Jute and also from wood, the krn ft or sulphate pulping process being used for the latter. The wood or other raw- material must be long libered and tough to start with. Waterproofing Is accomplished by (he use of sizing agents, such as resin, w ater glass or waxes and paraffin. One type of wa ter and grease-proof paper Is made by immersing sheets of paper made from sulphite pulp In strong sulphuric acid solutions.
