The speedier a stenographer can
typewrite a letter the more valuable
shee
be owes to the busy business
man,
Practice does a great deal, but
correct fingering and the " Touch
System," which we teach thoroughly,
are of paramount importance.
When the " Touch System'.: is
mastered the operator never looks at
the keyboard, but keeps her eyes on
her notes, She saves the time lost
by the "sight" operator in glancing
from notes to keyboard and back to
notes again -a considerable item in
a day's work and a severe strain on
the eyes as well.
Our large, free catalogue tells more
about our stenographer's course and
gives much valuable information
about the diplomas of the Business
Educators' Association.
The supply of our graduates is not
equal to the demand.

Gt9t1 SICK HEADACelr,
THE GREEN SUN.
It Was Noticed and Commented Upon
by the Ancient Egyptians,
The appearance of a green light at
aunset was noticed and commented
upon by the ancient Egyptians and
more particularly so because in the
clear air of Egypt the tints of sunset
are peculiarly distinct.
As the sun there descends nearer
and nearer to the horizon and is im-
mensely enlarged and flaming, it sud-
denly becomes for an instant a bril-
liantly green color, and immediately a
series of green rays suffuses the sky in
many directions, well nigh to the ze-
nith. The same phenomenon appears at
sunrise, but to a smaller extent. Some-
times, just as the last part of the sun's
disk vanishes, its color changes from
green to blue, and so also after it -has
disappeared the sky near the horizon
often is green, while toward the. zenith
it is bine.
This was alluded to in Egyptian
writings. Day was the emblem of life
end night that of death, and the noc-
turnal sun, being identified with Osiris,
thus rendered Osiris king of the dead.
The setting sun was green; therefore
Osiris, as the nocturnal deity of the
dead, was painted green. The splendid
coffins of the high priests of Ammon
frequently depict the green sun, and
the funeral deities are all colored
green,
There are innumerable instances in
the Egyptian relics of representations
relative to death being colored green.
The practice undoubtedly arose from
the green tints of sunrise and sunset.
The green sun disk is referred to 5,000
years ago in Egypt. This is the earli-
est known human record of an as-
tronomicaI phenomenon.
THE HERRING CATCH.
It Is to Northern Europe What the
Wheat Crop Is to America.
Today the herring is hardly regarded
as a luxury. Indeed, it is chiefly eaten
by those who can afford nothing else,
and yet 3,000,000,000 of these fish are
needed to supply tbe annual demand.
How this inexhaustible, limitless yield
of the ocean has swayed the destinies
of nations is strikingly set forth in an
article by Harold Bolce in Ocean,
Despite the unremitting harvest by
predatory man and gull and cannibal-
istic cod and shark, the unconquered
armies of herring still continue, to pop-
ulate the Atlantic with multiplying
hosts,
The Atlantic has been aptly called
the "herring pond." Indelibly associat-
ed
ssociated in the past with the economic and
political history of occidental man-
kind, the herring seems destined to
survive as one of the greatest factors
In the welfare of western nations. To-
day what the wheat crop is to America
the herring catch is to northern Eu-
rope.
FeW persons, even among the masses
that consume this fish, realize its
economic importance. More than 8,000,-
000,000
,000;000,000 herrings are captured annually,
according to the latest estimate.
The weight of that annual catch is
over 750,000 tons.
It would require 25,000 freight ears,
each with a capacity of thirty tons, to
haul the herring harvest inland from
the Atlantic.
A Doctor's Assistant.
A doctor whose large practice has
made an assistant necessary was told
that the man bet selected was hardly
competent.
"He's good enough for what I Want
him for," said the doctor. "1 don't
expect him to prescribe for my pa+
tients, but to listen to their gossip. 10
many cases the privilege of talking
aver his troubles with the doctor eon..
stitutes the biggest part of a patient's
cure. 1 haven't time to listen to an
these cotnplalnts myself; hence the
need of an Assistant. This in is
good looking and sympathetle. Callers

TEACHING MONKEYS.
Simple Acts That Ara Toe Difficuit
For Simian* to t,aarn.
it would be a very simple *natter for
a fourteen months old child to learn
to pull In, by weane of a very light
toy wooden rake, an object which It
could not reach with its bands, and yet
Jimmie, a very tame Rhesus monkey
of mine, writes Jolln B. Watson in
The World Today, spent many days in
trying to learn this simple act and
had not learned to Manipulate the rake
When our patience ran out, Jimmie
was kept *moderately hungry at the
time of the experiments; he was teth-
ered Just out of reaeh of some very
tempting food (walaga grapes). A light
top wooden rake was given bine In,
etinetively he grasped it, bit it, then
dropped it and began straining at his
tether and reaching out as far as possi-
ble with his foreleg, snaking vain ef-
forts to- scratch In his food, The rake
was then put around one of the grapes,
and the handle extended toward Jim-
mie. Instantly be grasped the handle
as before and jerked it, and the grape
rolled within reach of his paw. The
rake was dropped and forgotten and
the faithful paw utilized for the com-
pletion of the net.
Now what happens when the grape
has been eaten? The rake is still with-
in his reach, and the grapes are still
outside the pale. Does be perceive the
relationship existing between "food
out of reach, rake will lengthen paw,
ergo, use rake2" Not Jimmie. And he
is the brightest of six. As long as you
will kindly hook the blade of the rake
Around the grape and extend the han-
dle toward him he will condescend to
pull In the rake and consequently the
grape, but he has never yet botia
pushed out and thins pulled in the rake
of his own initis.
THE SUCK SEA.
Its Waters So Badly Poisoned That
Lite Is Practically Impossible.
Few persons, probably, other than
those engaged in the 'pursuit of sci-
ence, are aware that the Black sen
presents an interest of its own to the
zoologist and the geologist shared by
no other part of the ocean at the pres-
ent day,
1 Throughout the greater part of the
ocean the bottom is the dwelling place
of a number of creatures whose busi-
ness it Is to consume the bodies of the
members of the surface fauna which
after death sink to the bottom. In the
Black sen, however, says the Field, ow-
ing to special geological events, -suck
scavengers are totally t.'anting over
the greater part of the bottom, so that
the eareasses of the creatures which
fall from above are Ieft M decompose,
which they speedily do at the com-
paratively high temperature of the
water.
! By their decomposition two soluble
compounds, carbonate of ammonia.and
suiphureted hydrogen, are developed
In enormous quantities, while no free
lime, except such as Is introduced from
the Mediterranean, is left. The vol-
ume of suiphureted hydrogen Is so
great as to poison the water from
the greatest depth (1,227 fathoms) to
within about a hundred fathoms of the
surface to such a degree that life, ex-
cept for a few bacteria, is absolutely
impossible.
The circumstance has a double inter-
est -first, that it is absolutely unique
at the present day, and, secondly, that
it seems to offer an almost exact parol.
lel to the state of affairs that existed
at the inconceivably remote epoch.
when the oldest known sedimentary*
rocks were laid down as mud on the
ancient sea bottom.
Pat Was Surprised.
Two Irishmen got the contract to
clean a well. Pat tied a rope around
his middle, and Mike lowered him into
the well. When Pat was through
cleaning, Mike began to hoist blue up,
but when he was halfway up he called
to his companion in the well:
"Hould on it m]nnit, Pat, till 1 spit
on me hands," and let go of the rope.
Naturally Pat descended again a little
too rapidly for comfort. When Mike
realized his blunder, he ran to the well
and called down:
I "Pat, Pat, are ye dead?"
I And his partner replied:
"No, ye brainless spalpeen; Oi'm not
dead, begorry, but Oi'n1 spachless wid
surprise at yo"
