ENOCH ARDEN A Big Feature Picture in Two-reels At Majestic Theater. “Enoch Arden,” that is to -be shown at the Majestic Theater to- night and tomorrow night is one of the most satisfactory visnalizations of Tennyson's popular story ever put | out by the Biograph Co. The story of Enoch Arden is so well known that no repetition seems necessary. The scenes along the sea shore are beautiful and beyond discription. The second part of this picture is even more interesting than the first part and the acting could not be better. To see this picture-once is to want to see it again.

There is no reason for think- ing that the people who patronized | the oracles had other than the liveliest | faith in them. The two great oracies were those at Delphl and Dodona, though there were several others that| stood well with the people. The pre- dictions were, of course, nothing but predictions, since it is now generally understood that the promoters of| those famous institutions were only ordinary human beings like those who patronized them. The deliverances of the oracles belong to one of two classes—first, those founded on secret information and. second. those in which the oracle had absolutely no fdeas on the subject and took refuge in sheer vagueness. It was the faith of the people rather than the infalll- bility of the oracles that kept them| up so long. Albrecht Durer’s Tankard. One of the quaintest of drinking ves- sels is to be seen at the Bratwurstglock- lein, a Nuremberg inn which bas re- mained unaltered since it was built in 1400. Sausages, sauerkraut and beer are ‘the only commodities -obtainable, and the limit of accommodation is reached when ten customers are pres- ent. Yet several fortunes have been made out of the house. for it was the favorite haunt of Albrecht Durer, and the pewter-he drank from is still treas ured This is a double vessel, one tankard fitting neatly into the other, and was reserved for Durer and his wife. According to tradition, whén the artist was in a good bumor he used to fill the Inside tankard for his wife. and they would clink lovingly together. When domestic storms were brewing | he kept the tankards together and let his wife go thirsty.—London Graphie. Black Chocolate Icing. When a black chocolate icing is wanted and there happens to be no chocolate in the pantry, cocoa can be substituted for it in the following man ner; Mix together six even tablespoon: fuls of cocoa with five of sugar, one of butter and three of hot water. Cook the mixture until smooth and in the right condition for spreading. Test it by putting a little in a saucer and set- ting the saucer on an outside window ledge or where it will cool quickly. This fcing is rich and dark and mot very sweet. The Tailor's Chance. “Weel, Tam, are ye gaun hame wi’ your work?” was the invariable greet- ing of a doctor to a tailor of his ac quaintance when he met him carrying a bundle. Once the tailor saw the doc- tor walking-in a funeral procession. “Weel, doctor, are ye gaun hame wi' your work?" he asked.—Krom *“Remi- niscences,” by Sir Archibald Geikie. Not at His Best. “1 was surprised.” said the Rev. Mr. Goodstern sternly, “to see yon play ing golf last Sabbath. 1 should think you'd do better”— “Oh." replied Hardcase., I usually do much better! 1 was in wretched form last Sunday."—Catholic Standard and Times. Lying In Wait. “I've been sent down town to buy a taboret. What's that?" “Don’t you know? It’s one of lhose‘ things that stand around about shin high In the dark.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Always the Case “Take away woman aud what wonid | follow?” shouted the orator. “We would!” cried a man on a back seat. | man of ninety, who said that he had story is told of Pasteur, and Victor Duruy, who “minister of public instruction un- e second empire. The author of “Histoire des Romaing” was a great friend of Pasteur. Moreover, they were near neighbors. one residing In the Rue d'Ulm and the other in the Rue de Medicis. One Thursday, the day of the sittings of the academy, the two friends met at a cab stand by the Luxembourg.- “Are you going to the institute?” asked the minister. *Yes,” answered the savant, and they both entered the same cab. 'Arrived at their Journey’s end, Duruy tendered a five franc piece to the cabman, who, of course, had no change. Then said Duruy; “Keep the coin as a souvenit of this memorable ride. You have driven the greatest savant of the cen- tury.” Next came Pasteur’s turn. He put his hand in his pocket apd with- drew a five franc plece, which he handed to the “cocher” with the re- mark: “Take care of it You have driven the greatest minister of the sec- ond empire.”—London Globe. When Kurds and Turkomans Fight. Describing a feature of a fight be tween Turkomans and Kurds in Per sia, a traveler says: “The Turkomans, who always fight on foot, were ulti- mately defeated with heavy loss, and many prisoners were taken, and still more captives were released. Among the Turkoman prisoners was an old Joined fthe expedition in order to se- cure a new wife. The damsel in ques- tion came up during the interrogatory and brained her captor with a stone. During these raids, past and present, the Turkoman appeared to have en- joyed a great and permanent advan- tage in that neither Kurd nor Persian ever carried off their women or chil- dren owing to their ugliness, The Turkomans, on the other hand, pre- ferred Persian to their own women and thus had a keen incentive, apart from the purely commercial aspect, to engage in these forays, in which no mercy was ever shown to the aged or ‘weary.”—Chicago News. The Trade Winds. The constancy of trade winds is due to the permanence of the conditions which rule them. As the heated air at the equator ascends surface winds set in from north and south and, uniting, ascend in their turn and flow off in opposite directions. As the velocity of the earth’s revolution from east to | west is much greater at the equator than at the poles, wind blowing along its surface to the equator is constantly arriving at places which have a higher velocity than itself; hence it is retard- | ed and must lag behind, and under the influence of two opposing forces it is compelled to take an intermediate di- rection, so that what was originally a north wind is deflected and flows southwest, while what started as a south wind becomes northwest. From the great service they have rendered to navigation these reliable winds are called trade winds. “~His Black 8ul He was not a good card player. He admitted it. His game was pingpong. But that was no reason why his part- ner should be so disagreeable when- ever he made mistakes. After a particularly glaring error the pestering partner turned upon him with real anger. “Why didn’t you follow my lead?” he asked. - “If 1 followed anybody’s lead, sir,” exclaimed the novice hotly, “it cer- tainly wouldn’t be yours.”_ His partner snorted afid subsided. But in the next hand he threw down his cards in desperation. “Look here,” he cried; “didn’t you see me call for a spade or club? Have you no black suit?” “Yes, T have,” retorted the novice, with warmth. “But I'm keeping it for your funeral.” Center of the Earth. If a shaft were sunk vertically to the center of the earth and an object suspended from a spring balance were lowered down the‘shaft the weight of the object, as indicated by the dial of the balance, would at first increase as the descending object approached the deeper and denser strata. After pass- ing a certain depth, however, the weight would begin to diminish, and it would continue-to diminish to the center of the earth, where its value would be zero, because the object would there be equally attracted in every direction.
