Honeymoon Trips to Avoid.

There are two pieces OF advice I'd
like to give about honeymoons," said
the man who has had two Of them.
Zone of them is. never go on a long sea
voyage with your new wife. The other
is, never take a long automobile trip
with her. I've tried both, and both
have been miserable failures. would
not be guilty of such an unchivalrous
comment had both of my wives not
agreed with me in both instances.
Just think of having knocked down all
the barriers of conventionality which
practically shielded you during the
courtship to find yourself for eight or
ten days in such close companionship
with your better half as is offered on
an automobile honeymoon! It's awful
when you think Of it. When l was on
my last honeymoon, which was the au-
tomobile one, we were only three days
on the road wheE l was reminded of
the man who turned to his wife during
their honeymoon and said, Don't you
wish some friend would come alongY
oh, yes, dear she sighed, 'or an en-
emy even! !"-Philadelphia Record.
Animals and Colors.
The theory has been advanced that
the conspicuous colors developed in
various species Of snakes, insects and
animals are natures method of adver-
Using the fact that such are poisonous,
either in the bite or sting which they
infiict, or that the flesh is unpalatable
| If used for food. The believers in this
theory cite the wonderful display OF
colors In the eclaza wasp, the coral
snake, the horridium fish and the Gils
monster.

THE MYSTIC NUMBER
CURIOUS PROPERTIES OF "NINE'
IN ARITHMETIC.
The Great Plato Once Got Rid of Bore
by Giving Him Puzzle in Which This
Peculiarly Figured-See If You Can
Solve IL.

Most people are acquainted with
some OF the curious properties of the
number nine in ordinary arithmetic.
For example, write down a number
containing as many figures as you like,
add these figures together and deduct
the sum from the first number Now,
the sum of the figures in this new
number will always be multiple of
nine.
There was once a worthy man at
Athens who was not only a cranky
arithmetician, but also a mystic. He
was deeply convinced of the magic
properties of the number nine, and
was perpetually strolling out to the
groves of Academia to bother poor old
Plato with his nonsensical ideas about
what he called his lucky number"
But Plato devised a way of getting
rid of him. When the seer one day
proposed to infiict on him a lengthy
disquisition on his favorite topic, the
cut him short with the
remark, Look here, old chappie"
(that is the nearest translation of the
original Greek term of familiarity,
when you can bring me the solution
Of this little mystery of the three

odorous Substances Lose weIobt.

A French scientist has submitted to
the Paris Academic des Sciences some
instructive measurements of the loss
OF weight which odorous substances
sustain In giving out their character
istic smells. He determined that
grain of iodoform lost in an hour one
millionth part of its weight. At this
rate the substance would lose in one
year S,760 millionths, or less than one
hundredth part of milligram. There
