Openinx .Buckinx., Safes.

Every big concern dealing in strong
boxes employs professional safe
breaker against those frequent and Of
ten, costly occasions when the safe sold
to some consumer ''''gets out Of whack," !"
says New York paper. The work Of
opening a bucking safe is usually q
matter Of minutes with the profes-
sional, but occasionally he is obliged to
send for a half ton Of tools before he
is enabled to procure the magic ses-
anne. Often a half hundred clerks are
kept idle for hours and business mana
gers spin around like tops while the
safe breaker leisurely pothers about
with the combination. When the safe
or vault Is finally opened it is usually
discovered that some one connected
with the firm is to blame for altering
the combinatio and then keeping tile
matter to himself. The professional
safe opener frequently has calls from
out Of town, and on these occasions he
usually finds that some merchant who
has just bought his first safe changed
the combination and then forgot 1t.

Audubon and His Hair,

Audubon, the great naturalist, early
in his career wore his hair very long
He wrote in his diary one day: 81
wear my hair as long as usual. I be
lieve it does as much for me as my
paintings" However, in 1927 his
friends succeeded in persuading him
to get his hair cut according to the pre-
vailing fashion. On March 80 Of that
year he wrote in his diary: "This day
my hair sacrificed and the will Of God
usurped by the wishes Of man. AS the
barber clipped my locks rapidly it re-
minded me of the horrible times of
the French revolution when the same
operation was performed upon all the
victims murdered by the guillotine. My
heart sank low" Further to express
his grief the margin of the page on
which this entry was made he painted
black about three-quarters Of an inch
deep all around.

Cold and the Universe.

Heat can exist only where there is an
atmosphere, and then it must be con-
stantly supplied with fuel to overcome
the law of constant repulsion and diff
fusion. Cold is the absence Of heat and
exists everywhere. 1t overcomes disin-
tegration and preserves the universe.
1t enforees the universal law of the
electric attraction and cohesion of at
oms and worlds.
Cold must predominate to preserve
the universe. There is a billion times
a billion more cold in the universe than
heat. There always has been and there
always will be. The heat of the sun
compared with the cold that surrounds
it is as mustard seed to Jupiter. The
earth's heat in comparison to the cold
that surrounds it 10 as an orange to.the
solar system.
Then what folly to talk of the uni
verse having begun in<white heat and
the earth having been a\molten world
and the suns great burning spheres-

Forster asked me to paint a portrait of
Dickens for him. 1 gladly consented
and was about to propose a day for the

bright blue silk coat with big red cuffs

hand I demonstrated SO successfully
that after little hesitation he con-
sented to wear the black jacket in
which he now appears at South Ken
