Silence and Science,

Before it was determined scientific ally that smoke Is waste, smoke was fixed as the final indication and proof of prosperity. Today smokeless chimney means nothing less than thrift and good management. Similar. ly we now hear that noise Is proof of urban life, progress and activity. We may answer tbat noise is loss as surely as smoke Is waste. Decreased comfort is loss and noise decreases comfort Disturbed minds are loss through ra duction of mental force. But thess and similar consequences are indirect loss. There is direct loss also. A rat tling car means worn bearings and s short lived vehicle. Otherwise raN roads would not spend so much on their roadbeds, and they would run trains at higher speed.-Detroit Frss Press

alua Eyed Eahiea.

n b . pity that all babies born with @e prospect of being adopted out ot an orphan asylum are not blessed with blue eyes. Most persons who wish to adopt children show prefer snce for the blue eyed variety.
 They seem to think" said the ma, tEon of one such institution, that blue ayes give promise of great intelligence. honesty and general stability of char scter. Tbat is pretty hard on the youngsters with eyes of brown, black gray or hazel. Undoubtedly those chil- dren will grow up to be just as worthy dtizens as the blue eyed tots. but 1t Is impossible to make most of the pro, pective parents-in-law believe SO They have been influenced by the ar Tuments of certain half baked scien- hhc writers who claim that all the vir. fues are found in blue eyes, and the lark eyed children, no matter what their percentage, suffer from the dis Himina ation."-New York Sun.

It will not be brought into requisition for ac- tual warming purposes again. It's too good" Then he added contemplative H, My daughter thought it would re new the ancient flavor of things to put that warming pan to use. So on ono of the coldest nights of the winter she filed the pan end with live coals. shut tho lid and put the pan into one of the beds. In little while the house was filled with smoke, which, on being traced to It's origin, was found to come from the bed. which was afre. With . few olden time wood embers these warming pans were all right, but with live anthracite they simply overdo the job. We put out the fire, but, as say, from this time on the warming pan hangs on the wall empty"

"Norrawa (Norway) carpenters" Or the low Lincolnshire coast, as on the southwestern Atlantic fronting shore ot these islands. the grandly long un broken waves are known as 'rollers. Among east Anglians a heavy surf tumblinS in with an offshore wind or in q calm, Is called by the expressive name of ''slog." while q we'll mark ed swell rolling in independently of any blowing. Is called "home.'
