Frogs, whether blind or not, become dark
green or black If they are kept in dark
vessel in a sparingly lighted room, but
when larger branch with green leaves is
introduced into the vessel they all recover
their bright green color, whether blind or
not. In some way unknown the reflected
green light acts either upon the nerves of
the skin, or-what seems more probable, il
Steinach's experiments are taken into ac-
count-directly upon the pigment cells
Moreover, the sensations derived from the
toes have also an influence upon the
changes of color. When the bottom of the
vessel is covered with IA felt or with H thin
wire net, the frogs also become black, re.
covering their green color when green
branch is introduced into the vessel -Ex-

The office had already commenced. The

Perhaps it was half an hour later when the

In the stalls above the screen-in the lower

suspended from the vault--then the monks
knelt each upon the narrow piece OF wood
affixed TO their stalls for this purpose, and

There was q time when watches were large,

which was derlsively applied them. They were
made somewhat on the plan OF the clocks OF
the present day. and ne -ded an especially large
vest pocket to accommodate them.
In those days Matchmaking and repairing
were much easier tasks than they are today.
At present the watchmaker's trade Is one re-
quiring years OF practice TO become at all ex-
pert in. A deit hand and ready eye are pre-
requisites, and constant study is nee ssery to
keep up with The continual onward stI$ie in
methods and machinery.
How many ne watches are ruined By care
less and incompetent handling? No mater
how expensive 9 watch may be, some time 1t
will need adjusting and repairing. In the
course of ths perpetual motion, some screw
has become loose, perhaps Then 1t iequiies
doctoring, and must be sent to hospital. But
where? On the answer to that question may
depend the future OF the watch, Tor between
the com petent and the incompetent watch
maker lies q gap as great as that between lie
and death.
Fortunately for citizens of Los Angeles, the
answer to this question is an easy one. For
them only a short walk is nee .ssary, and by
leaving their watch in the hands of M. Ger

CATION on the subject What Will You
Do with Jesus? The speaker based his
remarks on st. Johns description of the
trial before PLATE. The end of the old
year, as we are about to turn over a new
leaf and commence a new story, was
urged upon his hearers as an especially
fitting time to consider this
all-important subject. The discourse
was simple and forcible one and was
listened to with marked attention. After
the sermon IA new members we're ad-

A TOURIST HOTEL NEEDED.

An Enterprise That Should Be Started
at Once.
Frequent comments have been heard
from tourists who have visited Los An
geles, expanding upon the fact that the
city has no large tourists hotel. Psss-
dens boasts, and justly, too. OF her
Hotel Green and the Raymond; Santa
Barbara of her Arlington, and San
Diego points with great pride to the
Coronado. But Los Angeles, the me-
tropolis OF Southern California, has
only her large commercial hotels to
offer 20 the tourist during his sojourn in
the city. There are thouHands of dol
lars that would be left in Los Angeles
each winter if the city possessed hotel
that offered the attractions and comforts
that are to be enjoyed within the walls
OF the hotels of some of the smaller
cities OF Southern California.
1t has been suggested that the capi.
talists and merchants of our city form
an association or stock company, take
the matter in hand and raise sufficient
funds to carry out project that would
meet with great favor from the citizens,
and which would seemingly at the same
There are AMPLE aites that can be Sc
cured at reasonable fgureF, the owners
o! which would no doubt willingly take
stock in the enterprise and lend their
efforts toward making the undertaking
q success.
Notable among these would be the
site OF what is known as the Tenth
street hotel property, located at the cor.
ner OF Main and Tenth streets. The
foundation has already been built for
an immense hotel structure, and the
plans perfected. Thousands of dollars
might thus be saved, and
building that would do the
city credit could be erected il
little Yankee push could be started in
snme manner. From the experience of
other cities that have enjoyed a growth
as rapid as that which indications point
will be the good fortune OF the City of
the Angels, it would seem that in few
years the business portion of the city
would extend to Tenth or Twelfth street
and it would not be surprising if in time
that locality became the business por-
tion of the city.
The owners OF the Tenth atreet site
are possessed of ample means, and if
few public spirited citizens would take
the matter in hand it would seem they
could no doubt secure their cooperation
and in short time push the work to
completion. The plan is feasible and
there is no reason why Los Angeles
should not be up to the times with
tirst-class tourist hotel,
