The vanitu of Antony.

81 am dying, Egypt, dying" re-
marked Antony to Cleopatra.
From without the windows Of the
palace could be heard the low ripple
of the Nile and the shouts of the sol
diers.
Cleopatra did not look up from the
sheet of plans of How to Build a
So 500 Barge for $65."
She murmured:
Il should think, Antony, that man
of your age would realize the fact that
gray hair was becoming. Anyway,
you might soak your head in hair dye
for week and you couldn't fool any
one with the result"
But Antony had read 100 many OF
the testimonials to be influenced by
her mment.-BaItimOre American.

circIino the Cane.

Ask some one to take a position in
the middle of the room. Give him a
stout cane and tell him to stand the
cane on the floor and bend over and
press his forehead against the canes
handle. Let him catch hold of the
cane with his right hand foot or two
below the handle and rest his left
hand, closed. on his left knee. Ask
him to stand thus for two or three
minutes, then to move slowly around
the cane, still retaining the same at
titude. He will not be able to keep
up this circulr motion very long, for
a strange giddiness viii gradually
overcome him, and his only hope OF
safety will lie in his staggering tc
some piece of furniture which he car
grasp.

A Query from Chicago.

Evidently the lord mayor of Bir-
mingham is expected to be Omniscient.
He recently received a letter from a
woman residing in Chicago, who
wished to know if he could tell he
the address of her aunt who in 1848
lived at Green House court, over the
bridge, and whose great grandfather
was Sir John hopkins, who kept a
brewery" His lordship must expert
ence much the same sensations as
were felt by the traveller who was
asked: Been in Australia, have you?
| wonder if you met a man named
Jones ?"-London Globe.

oadities Of the Ar.tics.

During the summer months much
Of the land becomes free from snow
and ice under the joint action OF sun
and wind. and the snow that resists
-emoyaI is darkened by deposit Oh
fine dust particles. In this season
the animals wear their darker cloth
ing, and birds have by way OF change
less gaudy plumage. The oack-
ground against which they stand
would betray their presence ii the
white dress of winter were worn now;
then, too, it makes it possible for
the foxes, ducks, and other animals
and birds to crafty natural vanity
by putting on, for a time at least, an
other coat.
In winter white is again worn. Inc
background is now snow and ice, and
the only chance which the arctic
chicken now has to deceive the fox
is to roll up like a ball and simulate
q lump of ice. The ice bear Is
equipped successfully to creep upon
the ever-watchful seal, because he
looks like the other blocks of white
around him. He remembers, however
his black nose. and is said to be
sharp enough to cover it with his
paw while approaching his doing
prey-St. Nicholas.

The First Luctfer Match.

There have been many claimants to
he honor of being the maker of the
first lucifer match. Some old account
books at Stockton-on-Tees afford docu-
mentary evidence which tends to
prove that one John Walker, a Dur
ham chemist, was the original inven-
.or and maker of the match. Accord
ing to dairy, in which Walker care
fully noted all his business transac-
tions, the first box Of matches was
sold for Is Cd in April, 1927. 1t ap-
pears that they at once became pOpu-
Lar, and people travelled from the ad-
jacent towns to purchase them. Wal
ker employed the poor of Stockton to
split the wood, but dipped them in
the PHOSPHORUS mixture himself to
insure their perfection.

Not a Bit Pretty.

A commander in the navy, who is
now cruising with the South Atlantic
squadron, sent home to his Philadel-
phia wife the other day description
of the women of Montevideo. These
women" he wrote, are as unattrac-
tive as clods of earth. They are
swarthy. angular, dull of eye, and
stolid of countenance. But what l
wish particularly to tell you of is the
moles upon their faces. Not one In
twenty but has. on her cheek, or lip, or
temple, a mole covered with long
hairs. They are proud of these moles
and regard them as beauty spots. 1t
is said, indeed, that those girls who
are moleless will resort to strange eX-
pedients in order to raise the ugly lit
tie growths upon their faces. The
women of Montevideo twirl the long
hairs upon their molcs proudly, as a
cavalryman twirls the ends OF his
mustache." ...a -..-.a..

Games of Taa.

Swiss children make believe that
the pursuer in the game of chase Or
tag is invested with an Imaginary evil
spirit, whose power is subject to cer-
tain charms For instance, if they
touch cold iron, a gate-latch, a horse
shoe or an iron nail the power of the
demon is broken. Sometimes they
make gold or silver their charm.
They play cross-chase in which the
runner who darts across the patch be-
tween the pursued and the apursuer
becomes the object of the catcher. and
the former one goes free. Again, II
the runner squats he is free, or he
may squat three times, and after that
the charm is lost. .. co. -..aa.
The chaser often disguises himself
and unless the captive can guess who
he is the captive is banished from
the game. They also play turn-cap--
| the chaser wearing his cap with tht
lining outside
Another Swiss game is called po
of gold. One of the swiftest runner:
takes a stick and pretends to dig fo
a pot of gold. He works away for ;
few minutes, then cries out "I've
found it" and runs away with it a
the top of his speed.
He has the advantage of fey
PAGES at the start, for while he j
I digging the other players are groupe
behind him at least one rod distant
The player who catches him gets tn
pot of gold and becomes in turn SUI
ject to robbers.
This keeps every player on tn
chase continually. 81. .ses

The camni1or scornion.

Take a glass, fill it with water and
place pieces of camphor of uneven
size on its surface, forming the figure
of an animaCfor instance, that OF a
scorpion After short while the
scorpion will start to move in the
water, working its legs as if they
wanted to swim, while its tail
will move like that of wild
scorpion. This experiment teaches
us that camphor has a tendency TO
move on the surface of the water,
caused by the evaporation of the cam
phor fumes; this will be accom-
plished without dissolving the cam
phor; single pieces will not separate,
but follow the laws of cohesion. This
experiment is very surprising in its
effect-try it and see.z
When performing feats of magic,
be careful that your hands are warm

Liahtnina on the Wins.

In a recent communication to the
British Institution of Electrical En-
gineers, Mr.. Leonard Joseph reporteda
the following unusual occurrence
During a thunderstorm a wild goose
was seen to fall to the ground, ap-
parently directly out of the storm
clouds. After the storm was over
an examination revealed the body of
another goose at some distance from
the first. The only wounds found
upon the birds Were a narrow cutzon'
the neck of one and small puncture
at the point where the neck joins the
body on the other. At these points
the feathers were slightly singed.
Both birds proved perfectly fit for
the table.

A Little Hero.

One Sunday several weeks ago two
children wandered away from their
home in the Mehama hills, in Ore
gon, and at nightfaH they could not
be found. Search parties went out
about sunset and ranged the hillsides
and hollows all night long, but the lit
tie wayfarers were not then discov-
cred. Rain fell constantly that night
and during the forenoon of Monday,
on which day the two lads were found
far UP mountain side. The younger
boy was asleep, and the other, who
was only years old, sat by his side.
The latter was indeed a hero. In
spite of the keen mountain storm, he
had taken off his coat and wrapped it
around his brother.

polish Revolutionary Patriot.

American citizens of Polish birth
and extraction are interesting them
selves in the project for the erection
in Washington of a statue of Count
Casimir Pulaski, the intrepid Lithu-
anian who served with distinction iii
the revolutionary war. In 1771 con
gress, acting on Washington's recon-
mendation, appointed Pulaski a briga-
dier general and chief of dragons in
the United States army. He was
mortally wounded at the siege of Sa-
vannah Oct. 8, 1873, and died two
days later, being then only 80 years
old.

Cultivation of Cocoa.

A traveller in South America, where
the cocoa tree is largely cultivated,
speaks of the great care with which
the young plants have to be protected
from the sun, which if very strong
is fatal to them. To secure this pro-
lection the planters shield them by
banana trees and plantain trees, tho
broad leaves of which give them the
needed shade. And even when they
are fully grown they need protection,
which is given by trees known as.
''immortels, or, as the planters call
them, ''the mother of the cocoa" Thus
the whole cocoa plantation has a sort
of canopy.

For RaId.headed People.

.Bald-heAded people who have not yet
decided where to go for their summer
holiday should go to Casciana, in north
Italy. to test the virtue of it's waters,
which are reputed to be natural hair
restorers, equally capable of restoring
hair to=the bald and DIumage to naked
birds There is a tradition that in the
eleventh century the pet sblackbird of
the Countess Matilda had lost all it's
feathers, but recovered it's plumage
after bathing in the marshes of Cas-
ciana. The birds example was fol-
lowed by the ladies of the court, whose
hair was greatly increased in guam
tity and beauty, and whose bodies
became stronger and more youthful.
