The Loom of Life. It is a solemn thought that every one of us carries' about with him a mystical loom, and we are always weaving weave, weave, weave this robe which we wear, every thought a thread of the warp, every action a thread of the: weft. We weave It, as the spider does its" out of Its own entrails, If I might so say. We weave it, and we dye it, and we cut it, and we stitch it, and then we put it on and wear it; and it sticks to us. Like a snail that crawls about your garden patches and makes its shell by a process of secretion fromout of its own substance, so you and I are making that mysterious solemn thing we call character, moment by moment.

It is our own self modified by our actions. Character is the precipitate from the stream of conduct which, like the Nile delta, gradually rises soUd and firm above the parent river. solid and firm above the parent river, I lareru I OYvnitn Rftr.d Without Pressure. I o- By the use of some of the commer- cia 1 preparations of fused sodium per- cxide, oxygen can now be stored 'without pressure. This substance has the property of holding oxygen In chemical bonds, from which it is released by the action of water.

A pound of the peroxide will hold 2.2 cubic feet of gas, or enough to supply the breathing requirements of a man for 30. minutes. The application of this discovery to diving and life saving appliances is said to be entirely practical, since the sodium peroxide, while hard, is not brittle, and can be cast into any convenient shape. When charged with oxygen it may be stored without danger of deterioration if protected from moisture. Popular Mechanics.

A thousand strange phenomena are associated with the eye. For instance, we imagine that we see all the words at once in a line of ordinary, length, while the eyes actually see only a single point clearly. At the same time the paradox remains that we see more definitely, an object slightly removed from this positive point. In certain each eye' will see an object independently, which Is called seeing double. Another phenomenon is the blind spot, caused by a place in the eye mechanism where all is fiber and no retinal ele ments.

If a dot on a sheet of pape be drawn back and forth, one eye he-Ing closed, it rtll.at a certain point be Invisible. Visions impressed on the brain subjectively are at times and In certain distorted visual conditions peen objectively, and from this arise many of the stories of apparitions, which are nothing, but hallucinations. Queer Idea cf Future Life The of Mindanao having no. faith in a. future life in the sky for the very simple reason that it is inaccessible, believe that when a man dies, his spirit enters a cave, from which he follows a long, long road into the bowels of the earth until he meets the Big Chief, a man of gigantic stature who tends a great fire burning between the trunks of two trees.

The spirit is asked whether he has lived a good or bad life, and the answer is given for him by a louse. No fear ex ists of any person going to the Great Peyond without one of these Insects, for such a thing has never been known to occur, the louse being the true and ever-present witness and always found on the bodies of old and young alike.

An interesting' contribution to the discussion of a universal language is offered by the Montreal Family Herald. The adoption of a universal language, purely spoken by all who uso it is made difficult by the fact that there are physical differences of an important character between the different races.

The vocal organs are so unlike in different peoples that a language originally uniform would soon change in the mouths of the various nations, until they could no longer understand one' another. If the Italian language could be taught to all Chinese or Russians it would change so rapidly that in a few years no one would recognize it as Italian. One theory to account for this fact is that the people in the chilly north speak with the lips nearly closed, and that those who live in milder climates give free articulation by opening the Elizabeth's Fathers. In the primary history class the teacher used the word forefathers, and proceeded to explain its meaning. haven't any four fathers," objected Elizabeth when the teacher had said that every little boy and every little girl had forefathers.

"You certainly have," answered the teacher. "Every child in world has forefathers!" "Vxe only got two fathers," persisted Elizabeth; "my heavenly Father and my unheavenly father." LITTLE LOCALS.
