After examining ber tongue, feeding her

voice for several momenta he approartied
the sofa where Her Husband reclined.
"She'll be all right In a day or ao." he
announced. "It a Just a little attack of
tonfllltls-hardly worth notirina;. But you
don t look very well yourself, old fellow!
Is there anything I can do for youT"
The Post Graduate Husband hesitated.
"Well, now that you're here." he an
nounced finally. "I might as well tell you
my trotiblea. though I don't believe there's
anything; you can do for me. I don't take
any stock In medicines, you know."
When all his symptoms had been ex

manded the patient to He prone upon hla

"Sciatica la apt to be very painful until

The Post Graduate Husband obeyed and
Dr. Stall pulled his leg In audden. sharp

"How much Is your bill?" asked Her
Husband, gratefully.
"Ten dollars." blsndly answered the

"He certainly did pull my leg bard,"
said Her Husband, contentedly.

"Yes. dear, he did me good." said Her

The parable of the talents constitutes one
of the profoundest teachings attributed to J
nrisT- n the surface It aeems strange
and arbitrary, contrary to every ethical j
standard, yet as a matter of fact. It Is cor
roberated by the entire hlotory of human
experience.
In the first place the parable recognlies
the past of human limitations. We are
Anita being, limited In our powers to tasks,
hi out efforts and actions. In our Ideals and
visions. We cannot do all that we should
wish to do. cannot understand all that we
should wish to understand. The farts of
our human limitations are ever present
fact. Some grow pathetic over them and
eloquent; others kick at them and complain.
The wise man accepts them and makes the
best of them.
In the second p'ace the parable recognltes
aa even more Important fact: That these
imiversal limitations of mankind a a
whole are. broken up Into separate frag
ments and distributed to human Individuals
In unequal iTojiortions. In other words,
despite mura unv-ise talk to the contrary,
equal opportunities do net exist. A great
many things In our lite come to us over
which we have little or no control. For
one thing, we cannot chore our parents;
whether we be born In a hut or a mansion,
whether our early life be surrounded by
noble and pure Influence, or by Ignoble
and Impure, are matters beyond our control. I ties In life go the opportunities for suc
Thns at the very start. In whlrh so much j cess. Fach one can make a success of him
depends. our future Is to a great extent I self.' The means, the opportunities, are
mapped out. There was a large kernel of j alway at hand. How? Where?
iruin in me cruae old doctrine of predestl-
nation.
Eijualllv! My friends. It does not exist.
This world, whether we want It or no,
whether we rebel or submit. Is built on In
equality! Some people are fat. others arc
haa; some have blue eyes, others have
brown; some have straight nose, others
have pugnones. and maybe pugnacious;
noma are wise, some are foolish: some are
witty, some are dull because nature made
them so. because God. who seems to love
varletv. must have wanted them so.
Is this discouraging teaching? If so,
truth itself must be discouraging and some
times it Is to the foolish, that they may
learn wisdom. It Is a mere statement of
fact, meant for our edification and guid
ance. Knowing the facts of our existence
we shall the better be able to handle them.
Know ing the point of departure, we shall
the better know the point of our destina
tion. Inequality! Is It say real cause for com
plaint? None whatever. On the contrary,
once we have caught Us true significance,
'tis Gods supremest gift to mankind!
Without It the world would be unlivable.
Suppose a world where perfect equality ex
isted, where everyone looked alike, and
tallied alike, and thought alike, and acted
alike, and aspired alike, and bad alike
'twould be a world of everlasting flatness
Inhabited by moon calves.
No, Inequality la nothing to complain of.
but something to be grateful for. And It
Is only tha man with the one talent, the one
who has the least to do. bat doesn't do
that, that complains and finds fault with
his lot the others attend to their business.
Poea this. then. Justify the social In
equalities that exist, the cruelties, the
abuses, the tryannies that have been neaped
upon the poor and down-trodden since the
beginning of civilization? Kot In the least.
But that Is artot her phase of the subject
with which I am not now concerned. In
passing. I may remark, however, that our
social Inequalities rest fundamentally upon
mental Inequalities, and It Is only tn pro
portion as these be removed or modified by
education In the fullest sense of that term
that we may look for larger social Justice
and equality. This, too. Is abundantly
verified by human, history and nowhere
more strikingly so than In the history of
the modern labor movement.
Meanwhile. It ahould be noted, and noted
with care, that while have not equal

Asia was the origin and dispersive center
of the whole family of the cow kind, and
to this day It Is the home of the higher
types, those of lower degree having made

America. From North America ' the
camel ids wandered to Asia. In Asia we
find the true camels, the highest develop

In the llama and the alpaca we see their
lower development, and these possess an
added Interest from the fact that they
have never been In touch with Asiatic environment-
The horse, the elephant, - the
cat family, the ostrich, the Jungle fowl, the
peacock, the gocse and the dove are all
Asiatic.
The turkey Is American and the guinea

- The apple la tha aristocrat of foods and

The climate and conditions tbat are best
for apples are best for man.
Anarchy never gathered fruit from Its

Apple orchards are better nurseries of
