Forgetting Ones Children.

exactly therer 1t was in one of the
stores in Temple place, and the mother
who had lost her two little girls pointed
with absolute decision to the place where
she was certain she had told them to
wait for her while she went to another
counter to look at a bargain. A small
commotion of inquiry and search at once
buzzed through the store Presently
one of the head men stepped to the door
and looked up and down the street to
see if the lost children had strayed out
of doors
In front of another store a few doors
up the street small crowd was collect
ing about two little girls who were ask
ing piteously for their mother. They
were still standing in the doorway of the
store exactly where she had left them
when she went away down to the other
to look up bargain And when she
was brought unto her own she ''remem-
bered that she had forgotten" where it
was she had left them, and added, Il de-

She Belongs to the Past.

The recent election of Miss Emily Lou
Use Gerry of this city as regent of the So
ciety of the Daughters of the Revolution
makes an interesting point of connection
between the present and the past in
American history.
Miss Gerry's father. Elbridge Gerry,
was a signer of the Declaration of hide
pendence, member of the committee
which framed the constitution of the
United States and vice president of the
United States in Madison's administra-
ton. He was born $50 years ago a sub
Ject OF King George II, and his daughter
at the age of 80 years is citizen of what
is now the Oldest republic ON the face of
the earth. She is the last living child of

ence.-New Haven News.

WEIGHT or BIRDS HEARTS.
They Are Heavier In Proportion Than
Those Of Animals.

InOSe OI tAHIEldlSs
Most people will be surprised to learn
that the hearts of birds are far heavier
prOpOrti0nately than the hearts OF AMI
mails, including man, but a little eX-
PLANTATION will show that this is quite
natural. The more the body works the
greater the demand upon the heart, upon
which falls the duty of driving the
blood through the body; hence the heart
deyelOps and becomes heavier. Every
body knows that birds are among the
most active and hard working of living
creatures. The swallow can ovortake an
express train The falcon will carry a
load weighing three pounds in the air
without hindrance to its power OF flight
or its speed In short, they have a ire
mendous capacity for work.
The celebrated OrnitholOgist, Marcy,
states that "a sea gull weighing l =
pounds is capable of performing in one
second work equivalent to raising a
weight of nine pounds one yard high. A
man weighing 1870 pounds, to be equal
to the sea gull, would have to lift 80
pounds one yard high in one second. If
Il man becomes an athlete or carries
heavy loads, his heart grows proper
tionately No wonder, therefore, that
the hearts of our active feathered friends
are stri1ingIy heavy as compared with
the bulk Of their bodies.
The average weight Of the human
heart in normal circumstances is five
one-thOusandths of the total weight Of
the body. Dr.. Carl Parrot has lately
weighed the hearts of various animals
and birds and has found the averages to
be as follows, the figures representing
the one-thousandth parts Of the total
weight; Pig, 4. 80; OK, /. 80; sheep, 6. OF;
horse, 6.31 The domestic animals thus
come fairly close to man. The wild
roebuck has an exceedingly heavy heart
-11.5.
Most birds are long way ahead of
animals. The carrier pigeon comes out
at 10. %; the common sparrow, 1922;
the hobby, an extremely active species
of falcon, l69 S, and the song thrush,
% The heart Of the last named is thus
five times heavier than that Of man i'll
comparison with the total weight -

FISHING nv ElectriPitv

The success which attended the use of
the electric light in fishing off the Cali
fornia coast has led to the devising of
various improved apparatus for that pur-
pose. One of these consists of a large
iron frame interlaced with netting, which
can be opened and closed at the will of
the operator. An electric light incased
in lantern is lowered into the net. the
electricity being furnished by motor
in the bow of the boat. AS the boat
moves along the network is thrown open,
and the bright light of the lamp. which
is seen at great distance in the clear
water, arouses the curiosity of the fish.
which readily swim into the trap. This
is the modern variant of the old method
of destroying fish from a canoe by torch

scure Social

author of an extremely insulting article
about President Casimer- Perier, which
SO annoyed the president, whose tenn
permanent is extremely sensitive, that a
government prosecution was instituted
against him which resulted in his being
sent to prison for one year. This only
increased his Importance among the
radicals, who elected him to represent
the Thirteenth ACCOMPLISHMENT Of Paris
in parliament. This followed immedi
ately upon the election of NJ. Brisson to
the presidency of the chamber, an event
which NJ Cassimir- Perier regarded as a
personal affront to himself. A clamor
was at once set up by the Socialists for
NJ. Gerault- Richards release, claiming
that his detention in prison after his
election was blow on universal suff
rage. The government successfully re-
sisted the demand for his release, but
among those who voted for it were var
ious friends of the president, notably M.
Bourgeois, to whom was given the reins

The Growth of Shipbuildinc.

Ten years ago there was no plant in the
country for making ship armor and mod
ern guns of the highest power, and the ship
yards and navy yards alike were unpre-
pared to undertake work of the highest
class. Now everything is changed. All
the complex naval industries have been in
troduced. A great shipyard like that of
the Cramps can build in the course of three
years pair of battleships of the highest
type. The nation not only has modern
heet OF which it has no cause to be ashamed,
but it has also facilities for rapidly increas-
ing Its naval resources in an emergency.

Thunderstorm Zones.

This subject has been somewhat close
ly studied by Professor Klossovsky, di-
rector of the observatory at Odessa, who
has published paper on the annual
distribution of thunderstorms over the
globe.
His observations show that a high
temperature, a certain degree of humid
ity and considerable amount of rain,
fall are the chief agents favoring the
developments of thunderstorms. A col
ored map which accompanies Professor
Klossovsky's paper shows the existence
of zone Of electric activity Of great in
tensity on both sides Of the equator,
and this is also the zone of greatest rain
fall. The zone is divided into three sec
tions, the first embracing Asia and
Oceania, Indo China and the Sunda
isles to New Guinea. Over this zone
the yearly average of thunderstorms is
80 to 100. The second zone starts from
the west coast Of Africa between 8 and
10 degrees north latitude and degrees
to 10 degrees south latitude, while the
third zone comprises the tropical regions
of America between 20 degrees and %
degrees north latitude, where the mean
annual number of storms exceeds 100.
To the north of this zone, which is
termed the electric equator, the storms
decrease in number until the deserts of
Africa, Egypt, Persia and central Asia
are reached, where the rainfall is scanty
and thunderstOrms rare. To the north
OF the zone of deserts, especially over
the continents of Europe and Asia, the
electric activity is somewhat increased.
The data collected from the high lati-
tudes OF the southern hemisphere refer
principally to the Falkland islands,
where tue average number of storms is
only four.
