Show SECRETS OF NATURE.

Why do tne world-weary women in Forbes Robertson's Robert-son's boardlnghouse think they must have known him well down In Devonshire Devon-shire In those innocent days before the cares of the world and the de-celtfulness de-celtfulness of riches had choked the word of nobility and truth? Why do we all start, when he looks at us, as If those eyes were piercing to the lowest low-est depths of the soul? The only answer is that we do not know. The more we find out about most branch- -. of human learning, the more plainly plain-ly we understand the insurmountable and despairing nature of our ignorance, ignor-ance, sayb the Indianapolis Star. The mysteries that we solve only lead us to deeper mysteries farther on.

Things are going go-ing on in the convolutions of every brain as wonderful and Inscrutable as the affinities of the molecules, the exhaustless energy o! radium, or the flights of our solar system through space a million miles a day toward some unknown goal. |
