NATURE'S MYSTERIES.
And the Little That Man Realty
Knows About Them.
I Poized the opportunity some little
while ago on finding myself Bitting
next (<? a great physicist of asking him
n series of fumbling questions on the
subject of modern theories of matter.
For an hour I stumbled like a child,
supported by a strong hand, In a dim
and unfamiliar world, among tho mys
terious essences of thing*. 1 should
like to try to reproduce It here, but I
have no doubt I should reproduce It all
wrong. Still, It was deeply Inspiring
to look out Into chaos, to hear the rush
and motion of atoms moving In vast
vortices, to learn that Inside the hard
est and most Impenetrable of sub
stances there was probably a feverish
Intensity of -lnuer motion. I do not
know that I acquired any precise
knowledge, but I drank deep drafts of
wonder and awe.
The great man, with his amused and
weary smile, was Infinitely gentlo and
left me, I will say, far more conscious
of tho beauty and tho holiness of
knowledge. I said something to him
about the sense of power that such
knowledge must give. "Ah," he said,
"much of what I have told you Is not
proved; It Is only suspected. We are
very much In the dark about these
things yet. Probably If a physicist of
a hundred years hence could overhear
me he would be amazed to think that
a sensible man could make such puer
ile statements. Power? no, It Is not
that! It rather makes one realize
one's feebleness In being so uncertain
about things that are absolutely cer
tain and precise In themselves, if we
could but see the truth. It is much
more like the apostle who said: 'Lord,
I believe. Help thou my unbelief.' The
thing one wonders at Is the courage of
the men who daro to think they
know."? Putnam's.
Her Poor Memory.
A woman who belonged to an ancient
but penniless family married a rich
plebeian, but she never forgot the mis
alliance nor allowed any one else to do
so. One day, attended by a sen-ant,
she went Into a store and gave an or
der.
"And where shall I send it, madam?"
said the shopkeoper.
"Jean." said the woman, turning to
her servant, "tell the man your mas
ter's name. I never can remember it."
