IN THE FISHING SEASON.
Annual Sacrifice of the Humble Int
 Useful Angle Worm.

The fishworms are beginning to move, as they do with beautiful regularity at the earliest approach of spring. They set the pace, and soon after they be- gin to move so does the fisherman, and then the fish, says the Indianapolis News. Why does the flshworm, alias angleworm, alias earthworm, alias (scientifc) oligochaeta, leave Its safe winter quarters below the frost line and burrow Its way toward the sur face, only to be pursued by the ruth less fisherman, or If 1t protrude It's ex- ploring head the smallest fraction of a degree above ground, to be seized by the predacious robin and violently drag ged from Its native element? Why, we ask again, does the flshworm, alias, etc. incur these deadly risks by leaving Its winter quarters as soon as the earth begins to soften, and the earliest spring rain, still cold, invites exploration of the surface soil? It can only be be cause instinct, some imperative law of nature tells It the time has come for 1t to get busy and resume its work of trying to make the world habltable by triturating and pulverizing the soil and thereby making 1t more tillable and productive.
 There are no earthworms in the arc tic or antarctic region, nor In frozen high mountain attitudes, nor In sandy deserts. They are too wise to waste their lives In localities where they can do no good. It Is their mission to as- sist in cultivating soils that can be productive and the fact that many of them fall prey to fishermen and rob lns does not deter them from their appointed work--a work, by the way, of which they have monopoly as to methods and in which the beneficial results are out of all proportion to the simple means employed. For by simply passing the soil through their bodies they contribute enormously to its tillable quality and productiveness.
 Darwin estimated that earthworms bring to the surface In rich meadow lands not less than one-fifth inch of soil per annum. They are not noted for brllllancy, but they are very h. dustrious, and that is a quality which counts In the long run. Fishwmms are entitled to respect and they have their rights, but If you will use them for bait use a small hook and instead of crowdlng the worm on the hook pass the latter through one end of the mid dle of the worm, leaving It free to wriggle. The bait is thus rendered much more attractive than 1t would otherwise be and the fish care little for the visible hook.

There Is no reason why the discovery should not have been made before the fire and the building have been made less of a nretrap It was erected over fifty years ago and naturally did not measure up to mod ern standards of safe construction.

,iv. Your Wife a Square Deal.


 Are you sure that you are giving your wife a square deal? Perhaps she, with all her charm, doesn't happen to have either great energy or executive ability. She may not want any occupa- ton outside your home. She may not be strong enough for anything else. In that case she must get her experience of life second hand. She can, perhaps, get much from her reading, from her friends. She must, however, depend mainly upon you. You must be her point of contact with the larger life outside your home. If you surround your doings with an air of mystery make the patronizing assumption that she can't understand the affairs which Interest and occupy you, you deliber- ately narrow her life, you deliberately lessen her chances for efficiency and happiness No matter how good pro wider you may be, no matter how kind and conslderate, you are not giving her a square deal. This does not mean that you should heap your business cares and troubles upon your wife's head. That would be as wrong as for her to shift her domestic troubles to your shoulders.
 Perhaps you are so unfortunate as to be dlscontented with your wife. She Is frivolous, extravagant, impractical. You feel that her beauty does not coun- teract these deficiencies? Probably that Is true, but who Is to blame? Did you marry her because she was eco nomical, practical, a good housekeeper, a good prospective mother? You were fascinated by her because she was pret- ty, Irresponsible, illogical and whimsi- cal. You are now discontented with her because she Is irresponsible, illogi- .al and whimsical.
 Did you think that wedding ring and a husband would change her na- lure? Would you buy horse because he could travel in 2:10, and then be come dsgusted with him because he couldn't haul bricks? Strange as 1t may seem. the wife with whom you

4 Seesaw Experiment.

Get a full length candle-not one of those called "shorts"-and having heated the points of two large pins stick them into the candle midway from end to end and on opposite sides, so they may serve as trunnions. Place two glass tumblers or goblets side by side, and close enough to each other for the pins to rest on their edges. This done, take your knife and trim the ends of the candle 80 that 1t will balance perfectly, resting with its pin trunnions on the two glasses. In trim ming the candle, leave the wick e1- posed at each end. Now apply a match to each wick, and when the little drops of melted wax begin to fall-on plates put there to receive them-the candle will begin to move up and down, first one end and then the other, In sessaw fashion. To make the experiment more interesting, make little cardboard fig ures of two boys, with the joints of arms and legs hinged on pins, and at tach one to each end Of the candle by means of fine wire. Let the pieces of wire be long enough to keep the figures away from the blaze. Having done all this, sit down and laugh at the queer capers of the little figures as they move up and down In their minia- ture seesaw.

Francis Joseph, of Austria Hungary, who recently celebrated the 6Oth an niversary of hls ascension of the throne, Is not as old as one would suspect. con- siderlng that the Imperial robes have been worn for three score years. His investment as emperor took place at IS and this makes him 7S.
 From the beginning of his rule hls gentleness and love for his subjects have ever been conspicuous. Though the central figure in the most aristo- cratic court In Europe, he Is one of the most democratic of men. His humility In washing the feet of twelve poor men on Good Friday, performance the world looks upon as menial, gives the key to his fondness for others and the poorest can lay their troubles before the head of eO.OOO,Ooo people. Hun gary long ago would have broken the dual relation only for Francis Joseph. His strong sense of justice and his lov- able nature have kept the hyphenated empire from dissolution, and 1t may be that he has zone 50 far in conserving the interests of Hungary that she will continue the union after the death of the sovereign.
 In the worldwide felicitations which are being extended to the oldest em- peror in the world, the United States tenders her good will and hopes many more years of usefulness is in store for this model monarch
