NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN
Scientist Surprised at Antiquity of What
He Thought Yankee Invention.

81 am more and more convinced as
my years pass along that there is
nothing new under the sun" OBJ
served well-known scientist of
Washington to Star reporter,
Though | am also free to admit that
it took me many years to get away
from the idea that the world was be-
ing crammed full Of absolutely new
things every day. 1t is remarkable
how old many things are that we con
tinually refer TO as modern. But my
latest discovery. which made when
in Egypt last fall, has done more TO
convince me that we are not such Won
derful beings after all than almost
anything else Just prior to leaving
this country had my residence here
modernized to some extent in the way
of its plumbing, and incidentally |
got into a conversation with one of
the plumbers as to the origin Of the
single-linked chain which is used to
hold the plugs for bath tubs and
wash basins and fushes. The plumb
er admitted that he did not know any
thing about the origin of the chain
with its peculiar link, but yentured
| the opinion that it was the invention
Of some Yankee, and that he thought
in view of its very extensive use, that
there must have been barrels OF
money in it for the inventor knew
even less on the subject, but had
sense enough to keep my mouth
closed l am now glad | did. On ar
irving at Cairo | visited the museum
there, and the first thing that caugh
my eye was gold chain, the manufac
ture Of which was identical with tn
plumbers chain of to-day. Looking
into the subject, found enough t
show that it was not Yankee inven
ton, but was about the first form 0
chain ever put in use The specime
/ saw at Cairo was gold chain whic1
had been worn by some prince @
princess 5000 years ago. Pretty oil
for new invention, isn't it?"

A Woman-PrOf. Crook Declares

Prof. Algie r.. Crook, the bachelor
member of the faculty of North

students during heart-to-heart
talk in the laboratory by saying
that the frivolities of the VOL had
not tempted him. 81 have Never

Crook, never have smoked or

The confession brought BLUSH

looked and wondered.
That is true, " added the profess

Prof. Crook, after moments
silence, and as if talking to him
self, remarked, perhaps not.
Prof. Crook is graduate

EDWARD VII.
The tiappist rlemory of His Amer
lean Tour is That of His Visit
to the White House.

During the Prince of WALES
stay in Washington upon the occa-
sion of his VISIT TO America, in 1860, }
he was President Buchanan S
guest, and occupied apartments Of
the Executive Mansion looking over
Lafayette Square" writes William
Perrne, in the May Ladies Home
Journal Zone evening when an
elaborate display of fireworks was
given in his honor he stood on the
balcony of the White House, to-
gether with Mr.. Buchanan and
Miss Lane, amidst great cheers.
When dining with his hosts he would
escort Miss Lane to the table seat
ing himself ather right. His man.
uer was somewhat bashful, and
most public ceremonies apparently
bored him. But while he was
with Miss Lane and the coterie of
beautiful women of her set 1t was
noted that for the first time since he
had been in this country he seemed
to show the manner of gallant
young geutleman DESTROYS of pleas
ing. One of the merriest mornings
she had with him was at gymna-
sum in Washington attached TO d
female seminary.
On the brass rings suspended
from the ceiling he swung himself
one BY one across the room, and the
whole party laughed heartily at
his pranks on the rope ladder,
Then he fell to playing tenpins.
Miss Lane and the Prince together
succeeded in conquering Mrs.
Thompson and the Duke of New
castle; it was next the turn, Of
the victors to play against each
other, and Harriet who was one o
the most robust girls of the day
speedily outbowled the Prince anC
put his muscle to shame.

THE HoMiNo PIGEON.
II Is Supposed to Have a Sense Of ri
rection.


It Is Supposed to Have Sense Of ri.
rection.
For lack Of other explanation Of
the homing pigeons remarkable
power Of finding It's way to its cote
from distant points some scientists
have fallen back on the assumption
that the bird possesses special Sense
Of direction, says the Chicago Amer
lean.
1t has not been proved that the
homing pigeon has any special sense
organ of this kind, but certain obser-
vations point strongly to the existence
of the sense itself.
In case recently reported two
pigeons returned from a distance of
1928 miles, under very unusual condi-
tions. They'had been reared to the
age of three years and a half in Paris
and had never been exercised. Then
they were taken TO the Perigord dis
trict, where their OWNER, to make sure
of attaching them to their new home,
shut them up with other pigeons for
a month. His idea was to secure the
birds. which were females, through
the maternal instinct. AT the end Of
the month, when one Of the pigeons
had young brood and the other was
setting, both were set al liberty.
The brooding pigeon flew away at
Ince, and the other followed on the
death Of her offspring The first ar
rived in Paris two days after starting;
the second took three days to accom-
plish the journey of 223m miles.
1t was first flight. at theadvanced
age of three years and half, aitera
month of imprisonment EIoming
pigeons are usually not sent on such
voyages except after long training,
with gradual increase in the length of
flight,
A case is known, however, in which |
a young and unframed female was re-
leased by mistake and trayersed the
course of 1874 miles in seven hours.
These three examples tend to prove
that, in some cases, at least, visual |
memory and reasoning power have
very little to do with the phenomenon.
How could these unframed pigeons,
carried so far by rail and shut up for
a month, have retained any memory |
Of the road to Paris?
To be sure, it took the birds two or
three days to make the trip which a
trained pigeon would accomplish in /
five hours.

II Is Just as easy to drift into danger
ps to drive into it, The progress is slower
but the end is equally sure. II is the
gradual progress OF drifting which blinds
to the danger. Men and women drift into
ill-health in such a way. There is a
little feeling of oppression after eating.
After a time II passes away. Some day
II returns and brings another symptom

to relieve the headache, but nothing to
relieve the cause. SO one more victim
goes drifting on to the rocks of disease.
Young women who are teaching or
studying are very apt to become victims
of disease of the stomach. They eat in

the stomach the blood necessary to carry
on its functions. Hence in time the
