Another curious point was that while be always acquired curios In any part of the world In which he might be. he took care never to allow his purchase to be on the vessel ou which he was a passenger. W hen Lord Kitchener was in France a few months before he lost his life at sea off the Orkney islands he was visiting the British front. There he met his friend, the naval Captain Testu de Balincourt. then ou service at Dunkirk, whom Lord Kitchener ask­ ed to be his speilal aid if lie should nee«i one later during the war. Lord Kitchener told his friend how a heavy shell had burst close to him while on this visit, but added, "That did not disturb me. for I know that 1 shall die at sea.”—New York Sun. SEAL OF THE THEASURY. THE GREAT WHITE PLAGUE. Meaning of the Latin Inscription on Uncle Sam's Paper Money. Women Teachers Have Good Reason For Dreading Tuberculosis. Many persons mid even those with a rudimentary or fair a -quaiiitmice with the Latin language, tiuil hardship in translating the Latin that is <>n the dollar bill as well ns on ail denomina­ tions of currency issued by the United States. This Latin is in the great cir­ cle of the seal of the treasury of the United Slates and Hint seal is near the middle of the right band half of the bill. The legend on the seal is "The- saur. Amer. Septent. Sigil.." being an abbreviation pf the Latin. "Thesauri Atneric-ae Septetitrlonalis Sigilium. " meaning "The seal of the treasury of North America." In addition to the Latin inscription on tlie seal there are a number of sym­ bols on the seal, stars, a balance and keys. The thirteen stars represent tho thirteen original colonies. Justice, the blind goddess holding the balance, has always been a favorite with the de­ visers of state seals. The first design submitted for the grea.t seal of the United States bad this device in full, but it wus omitted entirely from the one Anally adopted The designers of our treasury seal used the balance alone as un emblem of justice. Keys, in secular heraldry, have been used from remote antiquity to denote offices of state.—Washington Star. That teachers are especially prone to tuberculosis Is the statement made by the bureau of educational hygiene of the city of New York. This department sa.is that tills disease is 20 |>er cent more prevalent among teachers than among others of corresponding sex and age aud that about half of all deaths among women teachers is caused by tuberculosis, and this tn spite of tlie fact that teachers belong to a better hygienic grade than the general aver­ age. Strenuous, nerve taxing work that causes physical exhaustion and nerve breakdown is given as the main cause. Termini states that "four hours of ac­ tual teaching represent about eight hours of ordinary office work." What is probably the second cause is' lack of sufficient rest and regular exercise in the open air. Speaking along this Ilue, the state board of health says: “The wan, tired look that usually marks the teacher, especially about tlie close of school, is too often a condition of serious conse­ quence. It may be just a 'tired, run­ down condition’ or a case of ‘wornout nerves' or both, but these are predis­ posing causes of tuberculosis as much or more than others. “Unless the teacher is wise,” says the board, "and ns quickly as possible overcomes this tired feeling and re­ gains her usual state of health and vigor she subjects herself to an open risk against tuberculosis as well as to other diseases. “What the wise teacher will do is to avoid overwork and a nervous strain and see that she gets sufficient rest dally as well as daily exercise in the open air. This wornout condition that Is too often the beginning of a long, sad story is easy to prevent. To pre­ vent it should be the teacher’s first duty.” Unusual preparations were made one morning in Shusaanjt. or the Going Out of the Mountain temple, a quaint little place of worship bidden away in a labyrinth of crooked streets In a poor quarter of Tokyo-preparatlons for a celebration on the Sumida river to pray for the repose of the souls uf al) those slain In battle regardless of nn. tionality aud to scatter scraps of paper bearing the image of Jizo Sama over the waves, one for each departed spirit The chief priest, an aged man. with his assistant aud the supjiorlers of the temple, had been busy for days In ud vance, and nil was ready The red and gold altar of Shusaanji was heaped up with offerings of rice and fruit, and a plain wooden tablet had been placed there bearing the wc.ds: “To console all those souls who have passed into the beyond because of AN UNDERWORLD PALACE.

When the victorious Chinese general reached Kunibum he sent for these eight Buddhas and said to them: “You can read the future. Can you tell me when you are going to die?” One of them, shrewd enough to under­ stand tlie general's mind. said. “To­ morrow.” “No," said the general; "it will be today." And it was. Quito a number of temples and buildings make up the lamasery. The chief temple, which Is dedicated to Tseng Kaba, the great reformer of Tibetan Buddhism, has a roof of gold, variously conjectured as being from one-eighth of an inch to half an inch thick. Inside is a large image of Tsong Kaba, said by some to be of gold, but it is probably overlaid with gold. The temple threshold is covered with planks, and we saw many poor deluded people prostrating themselves in worship there. Around the main building are many large prayer wheels, which are kept well on the turn by the devotees to obtain merit — Christian Herald. Miseries of the Red See.
