During the tenth century no woman
was allowed to appear at church with
out a veil. It had to bo a real veil , too ,
covering and concealing the features
In order that the prayers and medita
tions of the men might not bo disturb
ed by the contemplation of feminine
loveliness. There was a tradition that
the origin of the custom was In'an or
der from a great French saint When
a young man ho met a little girl with
features so noble and beautiful that ,
although he was many years her senior ,
ho Immediately fell In love with her
because she resembled a young lady
to whom he hnd been engaged years
before , but who died In his anna. The
man and the child separated , and he
became a priest. Many years later ho
saw her In the congregation Just as ho
was entering the pulpit to prench. and
the slight disturbed him to such an ex
tent that his sermon was a failure ,
nnd ho ordered all the women thence
forth to wear veils.
A Tooth.
A tooth Is a living structure. Inside
of each tooth Is a cavity flllcd with
pulp , which gives It life. Nerves nnd
blood vessels connect this pulp with
the general system nnd circulation of
the body. The Ivory surrounding the
pulp Is covered over by n surface of
enamel. Both Ivory and enamel are
harder than any other bones , because
they contain a greater quantity of boiio
earth. Kuainel on the tops of the teeth
Is one-sixteenth of an Inch thick. It
consists of little six sided prisms
placed side by side and held together
by nn exquisitely tine cement. The
pulp of the tooth becomes diseased nnd
toothache follows. Tartar Is n secre
tion made by three glands In the
mouth , full of small , living organisms ,
which assimilate matter In the saliva
and deposit it on the teeth In the shape
of phosphate of lime.
Living mummies exist In Tibet , near
Gyangt.-c , at a spot the name of which
In Ihiglish may be rendered as "the
Cave of Happy Misery. " There are
about twenty small caves In the solid
rook , each built up In front with stones
and mortar. They have padlocked
doors , tiny drains nnd small holes
Just sutllclent for a man to pass his
hand through. In thcso cells men are

ShMll We All Die 'of Thlritt
After telling of the gradual drying

over tUs world In an article In Cham

' "Eveftwherto In our'owfa country , ni
ta others , water springs are giving oul
and water beds drying up , slowly per-

ulation and the modern system of
drainage have of course a great deal
to answer for , but much of the droughl
hi undoubtedly caused by the rapid
destruction of timber on all sides , fet
trees not only attract rain clouds , but
preserve the moisture of the soil. While
It Is Impossible for puny man to con

some , the gradual disappearance ol

would not be advisable to postpone
that disagreeable moment of a world
without water as far as possible by the
better preservation of our woods and
forests and the persistent replanting
of trees. "

"Wo preier n separate state from

The framing of a comprehensive

will tend to change the opinion at

Making a ringer In the pitching of

training which made the English long-
bowmcu BO terrible In siege that by
gauging the distance and taking the
lay of the wind they could send up a
deadly volley at the exact angle to
drop their arrows with destructive
force Into the heart of a beleaguered
city. Getting the lay of the wind Is
the first tiling to bo learned In the
noble art of pitching horseshoes. If
the wind bo contrary , the nicest cal
culations as to everything elsn vll ! bo
In vain. It Is only a supreme master
of the game , a dazzling genius In Its
