1t does not pay to be too striking in ones
Individuality unless that characteristic is
the outspringing Of ones own nature. Di-
rectly little eecentricities are assumed,
criticism is invited, we become conspicu-
Gus, and the unconventional beauty which
we wish To aeiieve turns to gall and worm
wood in what the world calls only ''queer-
ness" Unless you can be artistically out
Of the ordinary, do not try to be other than
commonplace. 1t does not pay to bring
down reproach and sarcasm upon your uu-
protected head for the sake Of winning no
toriety. Better by far to pursue the even
tenor of your way, exactly AS thousands
of other mortals do, than to strike out in
to new paths, which lead only into the
jungle OF ridicule aud condemnation

Astronomers anu physicists are begin
nins TO doubt the long accepted conclusion
that violent fluctuations of the magnetic
needle are closely connected with solar
spots and solar activity. They are ap-
preaching the belief that some of the most
remarkable instances of the fluctuations
of the needle just at the time of solar out
bursts were nothing more than eoinci-
dences and had no casual connection.
These doubts are calling forth counter ar
guments In the scientific world and the
subject is receiving widespread attention,
