MARKS THE MAN OF BUSINESS Ability to Recognize Worth, No Mat- ter Where Met, Is One of the Qreatest of All Gifts. “Beelng” men is an art. It amounts almost to second sight. Often, in & business “line,” some man makes his way mysteriously and rapidly to the top, or near to it. He does not seem to have greater trading ability than many others, nor has he been favored by a larger capital or a more mag- netio personality. But he rises. His taculty of “seeing” men has been the magical force. “Seelng” men means recognizing, perhaps under an unpromising ex- terior, what a man really is or may grow into, and attaching him to an organization or staff. There are busi- ness. executives that are geniuses in doing this. Their success is brought mrbout in great measure by the effi- ciency of the body of men they have picked in this way. It happens many times that a captain of affairs hunts for years for a lieutenant of certain qualities. He finds him at last, in Cinderella-like garb, far down the commercial ladder, a person a hun- dred other men who really wanted & | man of just this type have passed carelessly over. They could not “see.” It is no trick at all to discover the | man who has triumphantly made a | record, who {s already a personality In this trade or that. Unfortunately such a man is unfailingly costly. What he has done, moreover, is no positive guarantee as to his future exploits. Men of great reputation as lieuten- ants many times prove great disap- pointments when they shift. The chief who “sees” picks a man whose repu- tation is yet to be made, and thereby gets the profits himselt.—Cromwell Childe, in Harper’s Weekly. ENGLISH TONGUE LEADS ALL That Language Spoken by 130,000,000 Persons—German Ranks Second, According to Statistics. There are approximately 8,600 lan- guages or dialects spoken in the world. English leading them all in the number of persons using the tongue. It is estimated that over 130,000,000 persons speak English, while 100,000, 000 persons converse in German. Rus- sian is spoken by some 70,000,000, while 45,000,000 make their wants known in French. The Spanish lan- guage is spoken by 40,000,000; Italian by 30,000,000, and Portuguese by 13, 000,000. English is spoken by 4,000,000 in the Dominion of @anada, by 8,600,000 in the West Indies, by 3,000,000 in Aus- tralia, by 1,000,000 in East India and by 38,000,000 in the British Isles, not forgetting some 75,000,000 in the Unit- ed States. the United States; the same number of persons use that language in Swit zerland; 10,000,000 use ‘it in Austria: Hungary and 46,000,000 speak it in the German empire. In Belgium, where there was 3 movement on foot to make it popular, but 40,000 persona make use of it. Fo French is the regular means of com- munication between 2,500,000 persons in Belgium; between 1,000,000 persons in the United States and Canada and & similar number in Algiers, ‘Indla and Africa. It is spoken by 600,000 Swiss and the same number of Hayti- ens. In Alsace-Lorraine 200,000 per sons still make use of it, and in the mother country 38,000,000 persons rec ognize it as their native tongue. No Sun Here. In the valley of the Lyn, near Lyn mouth, North Devon, there 18 a quaint little hamlet called Middleham, where for three months in the year the sun is not seen. The cluster of houses forming the hamlet is surrounded on all sides by hills so steep and high that from No vember until February the sun does not rise high enough to be seen ove: their tops. The first appearance of the sun i1 eagerly looked for, and it is first seen on February 14, the inhabitants call it their valentine. 1f the day should be foggy or cloudy so that it cannot be seen, there is great disappointment, especially among the children. For the first few days after the fourteenth the sun is only seen for a very short time, but as the sun rises higher in the heavens the time it is in sight increases daily until its height is reached, when it gradually begins to fade from view again until in November it entirely vanishes from sight for another three months, Vegetable Eaters. ‘Our college professors nowadays not only teach youth, but also make many original and startling discoveries. Professor James Rollin Stonaker, of Stanford university, has just proved that eaters of meat are more endur- ing than eaters of vegetables, grain end grass. He has put four rats in rotary cages with speedomoters at- tached and found that in twenty-five months the meat eating female rat ran 5,447 miles, while her vegetable eating sister ran only 447. The meat eating male ran 1,447 miles, but the gentleman rat of the vegetable diet ran only a pitiful 200 miles. While we have not made such striking expe- riments, we have noticed that in the case of the elephant he does not taste meat in hig whole life, being reduced to such fare as shrubs, the tops of bushes and little trees and other such food lacking in nutrition. As a result the elephant seldom attains a weight of more than 10,000 pounds, and the hardiest specimens do not often-live longer than 200 years.—Health Cul- German is_spoken by 2,000,000 in CHERUBS IN ART “Learn One Thing Every Day” No. 2. ANGEL, BY FRA BARTOLOMMEO Copyright, 1913, by The Associated Newspaper School, Inc. _ Several of the greatest of the Ital- ian artists have been monks This! is not at all surprising, in one. re- calls the encouragement given to art by the patronage of the church from the very first.- Until after the middle of the fifteenth century, books were scarce. They were a luxury that-the rich only could afford. But much that nowadays would be taught by books was in those days taught by means of the pictures with which the churches were freely decorated. The church was not slow to grasp the value of this educational ageney, and we should doubtless have much less of the work of Italian artists had they not been cared for by - the churches for which they were paint- ed. And therefore, when a gifted brother became associated with any of these monastic orders, it was usu- ally impressed upon him that he would best serve the interests and increase the fame of his brotherhood by continuing in his vocation as art- ist The times in which Fra Bartholom- meo lived were troubleous ones. Born in 1475, he reached young manhood just in time to take sides in the con- flict that raged about the great figure of Savanarolo. Savonarola was one of the greatest leaders, preachers, patriots, that Florence has ever seen. Savanarola preached that there ought to be a purification of the life—moral as well as civic—of the citizens. He urgéd them to dress more soberly—to put aside their gewgaws—to simplify and deepen their life. He asked them to bring these things—anything that might interfere with the purity of their lives— to the great square, there to make a bonfire of their van- ities. Swayed-by the eloquence of the speaker, Fra Bartholomeo brought all his studies of the human body and some of his paintings of secular sub- Jects. He resolved to devote himself to painting religious subjects from that time forward, ;arly affected by Savonarola’s preach- ing. Indeed, close friends often dis- agreed about it. Albertinelli, Savon- arola’s artist friend, took the side of the enemies of Savonarola. The es- trangment which this difference of opinion brought about seems not to have continued for very long. The struggle in which Savonarola had engaged was not a passive one. It was a struggle of greed against patriotism—a struggle of the Medici and a pope who hoped to add Flor- ence to his temporal dominions lagainst a man whose desire it was to give his city better laws and. higher principles of living. As often hap- pens, wrong seemed.to triumph. Sav- onarola was strangled and his body burned. Fra Bartholommeo did mbt desert the cause he had espoused. He took part in the defense of the monastery of Savonarola, San Marco, against the mob that stormed the place crying for the blood of Savonarola. But he did vow that were he delivered alive from that mob, he would enter a monas- ‘tery. Thus in the course of time he donned the robe of the monk, think- ing to give up his work as a painter. But, encouraged by the abbot, he was induced after an interval again to take up his brushes. During the re- mainder of his life he painted many pictures, some of which are consider- ed the treasures of the galleries of Europe.

Pauling Rita, who declarys that she never saw a professional game of baseball, asserts that baseball destinies are controlled by the planets. Pauline is an astreloger who casts horoscopes with the aid of the stars, and she unfolds the results of her partially completed forecasts in the Adept, national magazine of astrol- ogy, published at Crystal Bay, Minn. Here's her forecast: Lajoie, the grandest of batters, born Sept. 5, 1875, should do better than| usual this year, for he has five plan-| ets on his side. On the day of John McGraw’s birth, April 7, 1873, the stars were most harmoniously placed. He is sure to come to the front in 1914. The pitchers Bender and Karger| should make good this summer, espe- cially in June. Stovall of the St. Louis team has some good aspects in 1913, especially in June, August and October. His best opportunities come in 19156 and 1916. - Chance of New York meets with adverse criticism this summer, yet his team will go ahead between July .and .October. Chance should capture the pennant in 1915 or 1916. bb, the greatest all-around Ty ball ‘player of today, was born Dec. Walur Johnlon of Washington. 18, 1886 He had Jupiter in sextile to Venus and the sun and Mercury in gextile to the moon and Uranus. In the winning or losing of a game it is conceded that very much de- pends on the pitcher. If we look up the aspects of Walter Johnson of the ‘Washington team, born in Kansas Nov. 6, 1888, and Joe Wood, born Oct. 26, 1889, both of whom made phenom- enal records in 1912, we find that Jupiter was in the.best possible posi- tion in both ' natlvities during tbat Jupiter at birth), The best ball players: are very tall and of heroic build. - Bender, Cobb, Chance, ‘Chase, - Gregg, - Joh Jole, 'Marquard, - Mathewson, Stovall and ‘Young ‘are :all over six feet 1 It we ‘compare the gracefu} Nap Lajoigaof Cleveland.

Since the baseball season has start- ed, there is more-work than pleasure finding enjoymeént in'any of the other sports. Bert Humphries is the only player living in California and Pennsylvania at the same time. He lives in Califor- nia, Pa. - Rumors emanating from New York are to the effect that Manager Mc- Graw will turn over Josh Devore to the Indianapolis club. Ban Johnson, president of the Amer: ican league, predicts a great year for his organization. “The weaker clubs are stronger,” adds Ban. Boston, Washington and Philadel- phia are picked to fight it out for the ‘bunting season, with the Sox and Naps trailing along with them.
