THE MAZE
 0F MINDS

Every one acquainted with Greek mythology remembers how Theseus, the benefactor of prehistoric Greece, went over Into Crete and with the aid of Ariadne and a ball of twine threaded his way into a labyrinth built for King NIlnos and killed the minotaur, a DOT ton of whose food consisted of Athe- nian maldens. The spectacle is now presented of the Cretans insisting upon being taken under the folds of the blue and white ensign of Greece, the country from which once tho monarch of central Crete eXtorted as indemnity the choicest specimens of human flesh that Athens could produce for the re- plenishment of the larder of the fierce man-bull
 Mlnos, according to Greek mythol- ogy, was the son of zeus and Europa. The wife of NIinos was Paslphae, Ariadne being their daughter. Pasi- phae gave birth to the minotaur, a man.bull. This fabled monster was imprisoned in a labyrinth designed for Mnos and built by Daedalus, a fabled sculptor. The mlnotaur lived upon hu- man food. Nlinos, having conquered the Athenians. demanded a yearly trib- ute of seven youths and seven maid- ems to be served up to the minotaur. Thesus, an Atheniau, ranking next to Hercules among the Creek heroes, on one occasion was sent to Crete with the tribute. Ariadne fell in love with the youthful Thesus and assisted him by means of a ball of twlne to enter the labyrinth safely. He slew the mi- notaur md was enabled to escape again. This relieved the Athenians of the future payment of human tribute.
 It used to be thought that this story and many of the others recounted in the Homeric period as well as Minos himself were myths. Recently archae- ological discoveries in Crete, however, have served more than to suggest that the stories have a historical founda- tlon. Not only the capital of Minos, but his palace, his throne and now q labyrinth which may well have been devised by real Daedalus have been discovered in the ruins of Knossos, in the center of the island. Many carv- ings indicate that bulls figured in the rites of the inhabitants of that old world palace, and men and women are shswn taking part In the sports, which possibly were connected with the wor- ship of some cruel deity 10 whom hu- man sacrifice was offered in this form. Perhaps this is the origin of the story of the feeding of the minotaur with human daintles-New York Tribune.

 BLINDNESS

Color blindness, or the mauluty to distinguish certain colors, is by no means rares Incomplete color blindness Is when a person cannot distinguish one of the fundamental colors, red, green or violet. If a person is told to select colors resembling violet, he will If red blind usually select blues as well as violets. If he Is green blind, he will select green or gray, with possibly some blues and vlolets of the brightest shades. Violet blindness is rare. To q red blind person the American flag ap- pears to have green and white stripes, while the white stars appear on a vio- let field. To a green blind person the stripes have the proper colors, but the field for the stars is red violet. To a violet blind person the stripes are nor nal, but the stars appear to be set In Q dark brownish gray field. To q person who is totally color blind the blue of the flag appears light yellowlsh brown, while the red stripes seem to be Pdarker brown.

An Idol Shattered.

Some one has said that people that are fond of hero worship should never make a pilgrimage to see the hero. Here Is an instance:
 An enthusiastic young lady admirer called on her favorite author. In speaking of her visit she said:
 'T'm sorry saw him. He didn't look at all like an author-no long, wavy hair; no dreamy expression; no eyes fixed on the stars as if to read the secrets of the heavens; no musical, low voIce-nothlng to suggest the genius. No, found him leaning on the garden gate, in his shirt sleeves, swearing at a grocery boy! And his hair was close cropped, and he looked as if he hadn't shaved In q week. He was the most terribly human specimen I ever saw."-Atlanta Constitution.
