discriminately' on all plants will find
abundant sustenance under more ad-

stomach receives vegetable or animal
food with equal favor has a still bet-
ter chance for surviving: and that
which can catch the most various sort
of prey is more apt to have prey al-
ways at its command than that whose
powers in chase whose courage or
whose strength can overtake or over

Whenever we find a great effect we pass
instantly to the inquiry: "What great
cause produced it ? " For example here ia
the rapid growth of Christianity. It began
a golden dot on the map; now its banners
wave over two continents. It began with
the Christ on ilount Olivet; in 40 days it
numbered 3000 in 100 years a half mil-
lion and now it rules the minds and
hearts of 600000000. So wonderful is
the effect that we cast -about for a cause
equally powerful. The proverb runs no
golden conduct from leaden motives. Once
Philistinism offered men the ethics of
indifference to high and costly pleas- mud; the old world philosophies offered leaden motive and iron penalties-

their stock to three per cent;'
One of the most terrible railroad strike? over precipitated in this
country was due to the fact that in 189'A a railway magnate in the time
of panic cut the wages of his workmen a thifd at a
single stroke while he insisted that his dhidnnds
should remain at ten per cent: Capital was every-
thing. Workmen cold hungry and starving were
nothing. The dollar must have its ten per cent. ; the
soul can have what is left if a crust remains. That
selfishness of capitalistic leaders is passing as surely
as gladiatorial games have gone. The new Christian re-
gime is on. That action of these railroad directors

book sometimes slipped to the floor
and the possible patient was forgot-
ten In the vision of a certain dainty
figure with laughing eyes who should
one day be near him when tha
bachelor quarters should swell to
larger proportions well that is an-
other story. Certainly the office beij
did not often disturb his day-dreams.
Tho monotony of this life could not
always last it had to end one way
or another. One day a group of la-
borers upon the trolley line which waa
to link the little suburb with what
waa destined to be the great chain
of Greater New York had reached a'
point within the doctor's range ol'
vision when a sudden commotion
among them aroused him at his sta.
tion on the porch. Then he saw that
a man had fallen and as one pointed
to the doctor's slim several others
lifted him and brought him toward
the house. Dr. Raymond received
them with his most dignified manner
heard their report that the foreman
of the gang for It was he who had
fallen had eaten no lunch and
seemed to be In pain; that after theyf
had returned to work he had suddenly'
clapped his hand to his right side and
dropped to the ground; that he lived j
by himself and had no relatives so
far as they knew.
While the doctor listened he wa
hurriedly using restoratives and thor-
oughly examining his patient. He was
soon convinced .that an acute attack
of appendicitis had caused the loss ol
consciouHness and that an operation
should be performed at once.
The delicate operation was per
formed with complete success and the
patient put to bed in the doctor's own
apartment for he dared not risk a re
raoval. It was one of those cases
where the appendix showed no sign
of obstruction; indeed there was an
unusually healthy condition which
promised a safe and speedy -recovery
especially as the patient was a strong
man not over 30 years of age.
The patient recovered consciousness
quite suddenly just as the doctor waa
beginning to feel uneasy at the pro-
longed state of coma which did not
show any signs of yielding to his ef
forts
"Wal I've sure got a fine berth this
time" suddenly greeted the doctor's
ears. He turned quickly to the bed in
time to see his man preparing to rise
"No! no!" expostulated Dr. Raymond.
"Wait a moment and I will explain."
Then as gently as possible the doctor
ioiq ine man what had occurred. "Ap

So the little household with the ad-
dition of the invalid and his nurse
moved smoothly on for two weeks
when the patient was pronounced able
to leave for his own lodgings. It was
with real regret that Raymond bade
him good-by; for his frank friendli-
ness and his homely philosophy had
been a cheering thing to the lonely
young physician.
Five years later Dr. Raymond had
become one of the visiting physicians
at a large city hospital when ono day
he was hurriedly called into the op
eratlng room to assist the chief sur-
geon with a case of appendicitis. Tha
patient was prepared for the operation
when Dr. Raymond entered and they
silently fell into their places and
watched the skillful work. Everything '
proceeded as usual until the culmin-
ating point of the task was reached
when it was found that there was no
appendix to be removed. As the man
