In spite of its origin, this is prob- ' ably one of the commonest catch- phrases in the world. If a golfer, for j Instance, were to foozle his drive or 1 miss an easy putt, he might say, "Tell It not In Gath," meaning. "Don't tell I the other fellows!" If an English I actor, temporarily out of a job, were i to be discovered by an old friend busk- I Ing on the bench, he would say, "Tell It not In Gath," meaning, "Don't I breathe it In Maiden Lane!" I The saying is Biblical In its origin, the first to utter II being David In his I lament on the death of Saul and Jona- ' than at the battle of Qllboa. Saul had been jealous of David for years, al- though Jonathan, his son and heir, was David's most devoted friend. David, being a fugitive, had settled with a handful of faithful followers at Zlklag. a small town in the country of the Philistines. It was here that the news was brought to him that Saul had fallen upon hla own sword, after being wounded by the riilllstlnes, and that Jonathan was dead nbo. He broke out Into one of the finest requiems ever uttered: â€" How are the mighty fallen! Tell It not In Gath, Publish It not In the streets of Aska- lon, Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice. . . . Askalon was a seaport of the Philis- tines, and Gath was an Inland city ot some importance In the same corner of fplestlne. Going On. W« live In a world that Is going on. Our language Is full of word* which mean rest and pause and stop, but they are all outlawed by fuller infor- mation. Science has reached Its most bewlklerlng and appalling concept in the Idea of motionâ€" everything ou the uiovo. Sun and moon and stars, all sweeping on with majestic stride, the earth revolving on its axis, swinging in lu yearly orbit around the sun, and with the great solar family of which It Is but an Inconspicuous member pro- ceeding forever In some still farther trek across the boundless fields of space. Turning from the astronomie im- mensities, the microscope has ex- amined the molecule, the atom, the electron; and they all Bj)eak the same language â€" going on. Life Is motion, and the guess Is now abroad that mo- tion is iife. -At all events, things which once seemed to be solid and sterile and dead are now known to be vividly and actively astir; the rock and the ore of steel and the huge bulk of tho mountainâ€" aJl resolve them- selveii Into motions of Incredible veloc- ities. In the long view, tho h!U» are as fluid as the waves of the sea. And the mystery of it and tho won- der Is that while all the multitude of things singly and Individually appear to have their beginnings and their ends, tlie whole, of which they are tho perishing Ingredients, remains. The soldiers drop out one by one, but the army marches on; the trees fade and fal'l, but the forest continues; nations, empires, generations tread upon each other's heels and vanish, but the hu- man race goes on. So great. Indeed, so vast, so Incredibly magnificent. Is this awful succession and continuance of the far-spread universe of things and forces, that the mind of man quails before it and can form no ade- quate conception of It. And here appears another mystery: For us humans the way of health and strength and all the fidelities seems to lie in this same path â€" go on. To falter, to stop, to fall into futile doubts and misgivings, to palter with destiny, to compromise with action, to hesitate, to sidestep tho onward urge â€" we our- selves call every such hesitation and reluctance weakness, failure, death. One of the women Channel swim- mers said a remarkable thing: "When you put your mind to go. you go. The moment you say '1 am cold, I had better stop,' you are through." The universe seems to be organized into some com- pelling omnipotence whose ruling slo- gan Is: "Go â€" keep going." f. The Height of ECONOMY - Beause I^ix prolongs the life of fabrics.

D, Wil'lamson, who has Just concluded a I ssries of e.xhaustlve investigations in- to the subject, the Earth Is built on a principle similar to that of the old- fashioned mo-tal-cored golf ball, with the addition of several layers of a lighter substance and a very thin sur- face cnist. Tho metal core of the Earth, accord- ing to this authority. Is purt> Iron, or an alloy of iron and nickel, having a thickness of not less than 4.200 miles. The distance from the outer edge ot I this core to the surface Is about 1,750 miles; this is divided into three layers. Next to the core Itself is a mixture of Iron and rock, extendng to within 800 miles of the Earth's crust. On top of ] this Is a layer of rock similar to that scattered about the surface, but con- , talning a much larger proportion of 1 magnesia. The surface crust, about j thirty-five miles In depth, consists al- j most entirely of granite. i This now knowledge of the Earth's formation has been obtained mainly ' through studying the velocity of earth- quake waves as they pas?! through the earth, as well as by an investigation of the contents of meteorites, which are generally accepted as being simi- lar in composition to that of the earth. The Strait of Dover varies in depth from 36 feet to 174 feet. The Admiral's Herring. Superstitions still cling to the Isle of Man herring fishery. The oldest flsh-| erman in the fleet, the vice-admiral,' must eat the first herring of the sea- son. The opening of the season is in- augurated by the Bishop of the Isle. He blesses boats, nets, and crews in turn. "Three" is the fisherman's un- lucky number. When the fleet leaves' port, no third boat may pass the har- bour mouth. To "cheat the devil,", the second and third boats are lightly lashed together till the harbor mouth Is cleared. Fishing for herring may go on until the first new moon before Chidstma*. In all Manx churches a speclal< clause Is Inserted in the Litany. This clause is the work of Bishop Wilson, who, knowing how much the islanders depended on the success of the her- ring fishery In his day, ordered these words to be said in the Litany: "That It may please Thee to restore and con- tinue to us the blessings of the sea." Manx officials on their installation In office swear to execute the laws of the Island as straighUy as the "her- ring's backbone doth lie In the midst of the fish." Don't Pity Yourself. â€"Because your friends are desert- ing you. Find out why. â€" Because the newspapers do not mention you. Perhaps they are kind. â€" Because you are not In style. Per- haps you are out of debt. â€"Because ycu are not rich. Think of the. worry you are missing. â€" Because you are not in the lime- light. Be thankful for a little privacy. â€" Because you have to work. What would life be without it? â€" Because you are not beautiful. At least you can wear a beautiful smile. _ â€" _<»_ Grape Famine.
