FEW PERSONS OF INTELLECT
Writer Assert That Only a Handful
ef Men Who Figure In History
Were Its Possessors
It should be said that sheer intel-
lect is very seldom displayed by man
ntellect is the ideal skeleton of a
man's mental power It may be dc-
ncd as an aspiration toward mato-
rinl advantage absolute truthy or
x-hicvciuent combined with a capac-
ity for taking steps toward success-
fid achievement or attaining tmth
From this point of view men such as
’Tupoleon Mm-hiavelli Epictetus
1 co XIII Bismarck Voltaire Ana-
ole France are typical intellectuals
They are not perfect all so far as
wo can tell are tainted with moral
feeling or emotion — a frailty which
probably explains why there' has
'lever been a British or American in-
tellectual of the first rank Huxley
Spencer Darwin Cromwell all alik
- lifcred grievously from good inten
t ons The British and American
- ind hus long been honeycombed
with moral impulse at any rate since
the Reformation it is very much
w!:ct the German mind was up tc
'be middle of the nineteenth century
Intellect as' I conceive it is seeing
life sanely and seeing it whole with-
'it much pity without love seeing
tie as separate from man wlioss
pains and delights aie only phenom-
ena seeing love as a reaction to cer-
tain stimuliT-W L George in the

NOT LONG-DISTANCE JUMPERS
Fleas’ Jumping Power Has- Been Ex
aggerated According to Recent
Investigators
The jumping powers of fleas have
been much exaggerated according to
i bulletin recently issued by the
United States department of agricul-
ture The species known as the hu-
man flea ( Pulev irritans) is prob-
ably the best jumper
According to Mitzmain the maxi-
mum horizontal distance this spe-
cies can jump is 13 inches and the
maximum vertical distance less than
eight inclC3
The question of a flea’s jumping
powers is of importance in connec-
tion with tlie spread of' bubonic
plagu& and other diseases of which
this insect is the carrier The In-
dian plague commission which lias
investigated the habits of the Indian
rat flea finds its maximum horizon-
tal jump to be only five inches while
Mitzmain records the maximum
height to which it can jump as 3 '3
inches
One species of flea the “stick-
tight” is nearly incapable of jump-
ing SOME RETURN
“Why didn’t you keep vour di-
vorce quiet ?”
j “Well nty friends gave me a linen
shower when I been me engaged and
! a lot of valuable presents when I was
j married Why should I deprive tliem
I of any innocent pleasure they may
derive from my divorce proceed-
1 ings?” — Louisville Courier-Journal
A WELCOME PROSPECT
“Be can fill” said the plivsiciar
“or von will have gout”
“Will I?” rejoined Mr Cumrox

Ids careworn face “Then mothei
nd the girls can’t expect me to learn
any more new dances am they!”

usually put out” 1
