''hero never was such another phil- anthropic outpouring in the history of the world, and it may be that there will never be another, for sirgu- uir'nts ;tgeinat some of the endow- ments are making headway. George Es sheen, the inventor ot the kodak, hue given away about $58,00u,000, nue of his favorit.e maven of philan- thropy being the Rochester Univers- ay. Easttnan started in an omce at a salary of 13 a week, and made his lortune out of snapshots. James R. Duke has given away ;41,000,001. He is a tobacco planter and manu- facturer. He was Sora in a log cabin ;and learned tobacco planting between the handles of a plough. Milton S. Hersey, who `early in 19:14 announced en endowment of S'iO,O00,000, is the man who invented too chocolate bar. He went to work first as a printer's doll, but dropped some type and was discharged. He later got into the confectionery busi- ness and did well. Mr. Hershey's benefaction is rather an unusual one. It goes to establish a school, a uni- versity and a home for orphan boys. He believes that most orphan lade hare a bad time of it, and that most of the youngsters who go to prison have never had a chance. There etre those who say that it will be found impoeslble to speed even the interest on the sum given by Mr. Hershey In the manner provided. The terms of the endowment provide that only white boys, in good health, shall be accepted in his school. Thus halt the orphans of the country are im- mediately excluded by sex, and all the negro boys are ruled nut, as well as perhaps more than half of the re- mainder because of their health. Moreover there are fewer indigent orphans than formerly. The State is more and more accepting respond• Witty- for then. It in Quite conceiv- able that in another twenty years there may be no indigent, white, healthy orphans In the United States, and that by that time the Hershey bequest may amount to;200,000,000. There are many trusts and endow- ruents, not cf this magnitude, of course, which have been virtually useless. because the purposes for which they were established have disappeared, or because the donors tied them up with restrictions de- signed to keep capital intact. This would have been the case of the General Education Board, with $133,000,000 at its disposal, had not John D. Rockefeller, in 1922, releas- ed it from any obligation to continue his gifts in perpetuity. The board therefore will not be limited as most trust administrators are limited to the spending of the interest only. In tate war Mr. Rockefeller released other trusts he had established from certain restrictions, and . they pro- vided large sums for war purposes.. Numerous trusts established In England in the past four hundred years have become obsolete or In- operative because of changing con- ditions. For instance, one patriotic Englishman lett a sum whose incre- ment was to he spent in releasing ether Englishmen who might be captured by pirates. The testator had no more idea that the time would come when pirates would be satinet that Mr. Hershey has that poor orphan boys will disappear. There are many court decisions to the effect that such bequests must be administered according to the in- tention of the founders rather than according to the views of policy or expediency entertained by those who are called upon to administer them. Great gifts to universities are also coming In for criticism, it being al- leged that they might tend to prevent the truth;being taught, For example, we cannot imagine any considerable part of the money that is going to the North Carolina college endowed by Mr. Duke being used to teach the students that tobaeco is a harmful weed; and It certainly would be in- delicate to use the Rockefeller and Carnegite money to expose the men- ace ot trusts. The following Is a list published in the New York Times of the prin- elpal American endowments and their donors which have been given or have became available in the ten years ending in 1924:— John D.

It is said that, this want of knowledge contributed to a atishap when Julius Caesar, with two legions, crossed the Channel from Gaul, now Prance, and invaded Bri- tain in the summer of 66 B.C. Caesar was In command of the Rom- an forces in Gaul and he had overrun the greater part of the country, To some extent he had operated along the coast, but the extent of the Chan- nel tides does not seem to hare been particularly noted.

This put the Romana In danger of being; cut off from Gaul, and had the 13ritone been more united and better disciplined they could have put an end to the invaders.

Front the snake's point of view the result is all that could be desired. Lizards see their foe suddenly mak- ing the most remarkable grimaces and remain rooted to the spot.

A meeting of the 'Directors of Blyth Agricultural Society Hill he held inthe Standard Office this (Thursday) evening 8 o'clock, Apart from the disease known an sleeping sickness, many cases are re- ported by people having slept tor cacoedingly long periods. An Interesting example Is the cue of a doctor who slept almost with - intermission for five weeks with- out giving any indication of the cause of his elumbor. Several apeclallats travelled a long distance to see him, and a portion of the bone of his skull was even cut out in the hope of relieving some blood pressure which It wan thought might. he the cause of his uneon- Sciousnese, but without avail, Even more striking was the ease of another man who was admitted to a hospital near New York, where he slept for seven weeks, during which time he was not awake more than ten hours, Ho profound wu his slumber that although strong elee- trlcal treatment was given to him, and hot and cold water applied al- ternately, they did not have any' effect in awakening him. Still more extraordinary u shov- ing how profound emotion can a[Nt the human brain is the case of a ;young man who lived at Buffalo, Suddenly overcome with homioldel mania, ono day he killed hie mothit and nearly murdered hie lather. Se was sent to the State Asylum AV the insane, where he quickly lapsed Into a comatose condition. For over two years he remained, In Oils state. Then, without, Asir warning, he got out of bed one day, asked where he was, and took up hie life where he had left it off just before the murder.• IIia slater was sent for, but when she appeared ho did not recognise her, nor did he- remember that he had killed hie mother. How poisonous gas can affect the brain and so cause sleep was shown hy the ease of a women who win found sutfering from inhaling carbon - monoxide gas. The prompt action of physicians saved her life, and she was finally restored to a condition which appeir- ed normal, except that no medical skill could awaken her from the sleep which was at first produced by the gas, When food was put into her mouth she swallowed it, with the result that she did not lose weight. Her mind remained a blank except on two or three occasions, when she surprised her nurse by speaking a sentence or two, although even then she appear- ed to be as one talking in her sleep. Thle sleep continued for two years and one month, when she died. There is a case on record of a man whose sleep extended tor a period of mine years, during which time hie wife and two children died, his home was broken up, and he w4a placed in a lunatic asylum. His sleep was divided into periods varying from twelve to tourteea months, with intervals ot conscious- ness which did not exceed three hours. The physicians were anxious to operate on him, but hie wlte, whoa alive, recused her consent, as she was afraid ho would go mad. 'I(hen there was the cane r a Frefach woman who was called "the sleeper of Therells," When quite young she was married and had a baby. She was deserted by her hus- band, and, later, was accused of murdering the child. ( When tho gendarmes broke into I her cottage to take her away, she fell at their feet and began a long 1 sleep which lasted for eeventeen ' year's, completely baffling the great physicians who attended her. Isle of Pines. The Isle of Pines, in the Weet In- dies, formerly belonged to Spain, but was boat to her in the $panfeh-Amer- ican war, when Cuba, of which the isle is a dependency, obtained her independence. It is situated forty miles south of the western part' of Cuba, - near Cape Covlentae, the southwest extremity. Its area" U about 840 square miles and',its popu- lation between 3,000 and 4,000. The island itself is a plateau, 50 to 100 feet above sea -level, with hills as high as 1,675 feat, Spacious 'We give ante anchorage. Rivera, streams ' and thermal springs abound. Pine trees cover the north, and marsh- ! lands exist In the mouth. Farming ' and stock raising, lumbering, quarry- ; ing, sea fisheries and tobacco mann- factories are carried on. The climate is described as moderate. The capital Is Nueva Gerona. The Island wu dip aovored by Columbus in 1414, and was long notorious as a resort for pirates. Religions of the World. According to Whitaker's Alma- , nack for 1923, the total numbor'of 1 Roman Catholics in the world is 272,860,000; the Orthodox Catholics number 120,000,000; the adherents to Protectant churches, 171,660,000; the Jews, 12,206,000; the Mohamme- dans, 221,826,000; the Buddhists, 138,031,000; the Hindus, 210,610,- 000; the Confucianists and Taoist", '100,830,000; the Shintoist', 25,000,- 0000, and the Animista, 158,270,0011 ,1, """E2:--" "RE" ' THRILLING EXPERIENCES A Solemn Dignity la Appenranee of of These Arf'tocrsts.

Formerly every Korean "gentle - wan" aspired to become an official. He showed great aptitude for getting into and remaining In osee. He was a past master In intrigue. Every oM- clal received a certain amount of ettentloo and conducted himself like a petty prince. If he wu too poor to ride a donkey, he strode along the highway with such an overpowering sense of condescension (bat the very street seemed honored by has pros-, ence, His pride was raised if be could afford a donkey, even though the beast was so small that the rider's feet touched the ground. Whenever an °Metal of higher rank appeared, he was compelled te be- come subservient immediately. If there was sufficient warning, which frequently happened a great man's approach, he would dart down a side street to save his own dignity. A high anklet frequently employed outrunners who went ahead ordering people to be ready t0 greet their mas- ter. They were sometimes equipped with paddles with which they beat aayou refusing to dismount. Woe to the luckless wlght who disregard- ed the shout. of "Pipes out!" In an instant his solaco would be taken from him, broken into pieces and his head whacked smartly'.

Its manufacture was a great source of wealth to the merebaats la the an- cient city of ryes. The soloriag matter wu procured from the shell- fish Murex truas'uluu, which was found In the Mediterranean and chief- ly on the coast. of Asia Minor and Phoenicia. The quantity in each shell was very small, hence great quanti- ties wen required, The mutes are noted tor their bright colors and for tbelr fanta'tle shapes. During excavations at Pompeii' shells of this species were found, having probably been used by painters. Fabric to be dyed wu sometimes moistened with sea -water. The natural dye, u found In the shell, was then brushed over 1t two or three times, atter which it was eipottted to the air and sun- ebine. At Int a faint yellow, It turn- ed to green, then finally to deep par- ple, and the color was "fast." Dur- ing the process a dloagreeable oder was usual, and clung slightly te the fabric for some time after. "Madame" at Moen. It is said that the Trench working woman's only thoughts concern food and money. She certainly manipu- lates the former with gnat skill and, as is well known, her SWOOP are the backbone of her country. Whenever a fresh loan is floated in Franee long eueuea of housewives are always waiting outside the banks with their money. Ia running a houeebold in France one moon finds out that the maids must be well fed. They will put up with sleeping accommodation which British maids would not tolerate, but there is no eompromiee on food. A cook, though she will keep her pots and pans 'potlesely clean, will not wash a fuer with much teal. The hardest working Frenchwomen, ft la interesting to note, have, u a rule, perfectly kept bands. Spirit is raid to be the keynote of a Frenchwoman's character, Armed with it, she never admits defeat, whe- ther In the world of commerce or of cdnqueet, And this spirit, with "'bleb she "down?' a rival, enables her also to cheer on her husband to fame and fortune.

The Painted Lady butterfly 1s as fond of travel over sen and land as she is of her gorgeous coloring. Her hus- band, too, likes migratory flights and, according to scientific researches, those butterflies in great numbers have been known to make journeys from Turkey to England. C, 13. Williams, chief entomologist of the Egyptian Ministry of Agricul- ture, who him been studying the habits of the Painted Lady fog several years, gave an account of his work in a re- cent issue of "Nature." Tho butterfly of this species, he believes, originates somewhere int the south or southeast of the long line of desert stretching across north Africa and Asia Minor, 2,000 or 3,000 miles from England. They leave the desert early in the spring and arrive in the vicinity of the southern Shores of the Mediterranean usually about April, From Palestine they appear to fly through Syria and Turkey to the Ilalkan states, and from Egypt, Tripoli and Algiers they cross to southern Europe. 13y the more hardy fliers England is reached late in May or early in June, Scotland a week or so later, and hero Many of tltenl spend the steamer. Tho Painted Lady, those which ariginate In the desert country,' have been soon in Iceland in July, some 4,000 miles from their starting place.

Source—A given name, Like virtually every Irish surname, the name of Maguire was at first the name of a clan, for until as late as the sixteenth century there was still in existence In that country a clan sys- tem closely similar to that of the Scot- tish I-Iiglllanders, In fact, the Iligh- land clan system is but a development of the Irish system, brought to the Highlands by the invaders and settlors from the north of Ireland. Among the most powerful of the ancient lrlslh clans and one which fur- nished manly of the "Iligh-Kings" un- der whorl the Irish kingdoms were united in a sort of empire for a period of nearly 3,000 years were the 0'J[a i'ts. As nearly as can be ascertained, it was early in the ninth century A.D. that the chieftain "Millar," a lumber of this clan, obtained a sufficient num- ber of followers• to establish, under the prevailing laws and customs, n clan of his own. In forming the clan name by prefixing "Alec," indicating "descend- ants of" or "followers of," the cone bina`fioit had to be Waldo with the pos- sessive cane of tho name, The pos- sessive case of "Odhar" was "Uldhir" (for the Irish tongue, in its inflection, often modifies the entire word rather than merely the ending. Thus, the clan name became "MacUldhir," the pronunciation of W11 1011 ens approxi- mately "Mac -weer," - In Anglicizing the tumid the "0" became a "g," and it was pronoinced "Aiacgweor." The so- called long "t" is a comparatively mod- ern development of pronunciatiohn within the Engiish language itself, which Inas - occurred since the 11111110 111tH 1)0001110 widespread among those speaking English, Spider -Web Secret. The spider's web is remarkable In several ways. It is the only trap, save one, that any animal builds. The manufacture of this essential accessory to the spider's life Is per- formed by a series of actions in which intelligence takes no .share. Such typi- cally instinctive actions depend on the inherited structure of the nervous sys- tem and not on the Inheritance of in- telligently acquired habits. A spider In the corner of its web is stimulated to rush out and attack an enmeshed insect by the vibrations of the silk threads. It will attack a tun- ing fork that is used to shake its web in the sante way, ,for' a certain tllno. On each occasion that It runs out to the fork it is performing an instinctive action, but when it refrains from run- ning out it is exhibiting intelligence. In its capacity to learn it shows itself, to that extent, intelligent. In an hour or so, however, it will attack the fork again. In the act of spinning a web a spider shows no sign of profiting by experi- once. It never spins more quickly or symmetrically, or in a series of better and bettor -chosen places. It never im- proves. Therefore, web -spinning may be an unconscious act, an act that slakes no contribution to experience and thus affords no date, by which the individual spicier slay profit.

In the fiscal year 1922, Canada purchased from Chile to the extent of $20,471, while selling to the value of $290,678. In the following year Canada's pur- chases from Chile were $230,068 and her sales to that country $31,716,. In the last fiscal year, Canada's imports dropped to $97,969 whilst her exports rose to ap621,208. There Is a decided opportunity for the development of a greater recipro- cal trade between the two countries.
