Lion and Mouse.

A mouse was put in the cage of lion
to test whether, as the old fables assert
ed, there was natural affection be-
tween them. The experiment demon
strates that each was so afraid Of the
other that no affection could exist be-
tween them The lion saw the mouse be.
fore he was fairly through the bars and
was after him instantly
Away went the little fellow, scurry
ing across the floor and squeaking i'll
fright. When he had gone about ten
feet, the lion sprang, lighting little in
front of him. The mouse turned and
the lion sprang again. This was repeat,
ed several times, the mouse traversiny a
shorter distance after each spring of the
lion
Finally the mouse stood still, soueal-
ing and trembling. The lion stood over
him, studying him with interest. Pres
emily he shot out his big paw and
brought it down directly on the mouse,
but so gently that the mouse was not in
jured in the least, though held fast be-
tween the claws.
Then the lion played with him, now
lifting his paw and letting the mouse
run few inches, and then stopping
him again as before. Suddenly the
mouse changed his tactics, and instead
of running when the lion lifted his paw
sprang into the air straight at the lion IS
head.
The lion, terrified, gave a great leap
back, striking the bars with all his
weight. Then he opened his jaws and
roared and roared again, while the little
mouse, still squealing, made his escape.
OF the two the lion was the more fright

The Enormous Sun. Arcturus,

If the earth were situated midway be-
tween the sun and Arcturus, it would
receive 5, 1913 times as much light from
that star as it would from the sun. It
is quite probable, moreover, that the
heat of Arcturus exceeds the solar heat
in the same ratio, for the spectroscope
shows that, although Arcturus is sur
rounded with cloak Of metallic vapors
proportionately far more extensive than
the suns, yet, smothered as the great
star seems in some respects to be, it
rivals Sirius itself in the intensity of its
radiant energy.
If we suppose the radiation Of Arctu-
rus to be the same per unit of surface as
the suns, it follows that Arcturus ex-
ceeds the sun about $4,000 times in
volume, and that it's diameter is no less
than 62,350,000 miles. Imagine the
earth and the other planets constituting
the solar system removed to Arcturus
and SET revolving around it in orbits of
the same forms and sizes as those in
which they circle about the sun. Poor
Mercury For that little planet it would
indeed be a jump from the frying pan
into tho fire, because, as it rushed to
peyhelipn, Mercury would plunge more
than 100000 miles beneath the sur
face Of the giant star. Venus and the
earth would perhaps melt like snow
flakes at the mouth of a furnace. Even
far away Neptune, the remotest member
of che system, would be bathed in tOrrid
heat Popular Science Monthly.

Lilacs In California.

A young man entered the shop Of a To-
cal florist and asked, "Do you want any
lilacs today?' eyes; bring lie half a
dozen lunches of white ones. When
tho young man had gone, the florist said :
That young man is born speculator,
a natural business man. Pretty nearly
all the lines IL Oakland were failures
this year because they made the mistake
of starting to bloom last fall during a
warm spell aid get niprca by the frost.
As soon as this young man found that
cut he slipped down 70 T..n Jese, went
to every person who had u lilac bpsh in
his yard, contracted for the blooms, and
now he has corner on the lilac trade
of San Francisco and Oakland
"By the way" continued the florist,
"did you ever think what hold on
popular favor that old flower, the lilac,
has? OF course the pretty white ilacs
are popular, but we sell jest as many Of
the lavender colored. Everybody buys
them. As soon as the violets go out
lilacs come in, and the women love
their fragrance About the premature
bloom of the Oakland lilacs last fall?
That was not strange, as the lilac begins
to set its buds in June for the blooming
Of the following spring, and a spell of
warm weather in the fall is liable to
hurry them forward in time to be frozen
by the next cold snap. Oakland (Cal. }
