told the whole story. One contained
an account Of the death of Napoleon

and looked as though it might last

The other paper was kept because its
leading article described the surrender

before. Although it had been printed
nearly fifty years later. the Sedan pa.

Young People In Virginia In Chief

Several of the great jurist's nieces

as they We're young and attractive the
house became rendezvous for the
leading Young men Of the city during
the afternoons. Judge Marshall's black

tight rein upon these visitors. Every
day at o'clock he would appear at

A Great Diplomat.

Metternich was 4 diplomatist Of the
old school, polished, suave, impenetra-
BILE. Nothing ever persuaded him. to be-
tray an emotion. When In 1913 he left
Napoleon after his last audience, the
generals gathered round him to see
what impression the interview had
made upon his face. II don't think I
satisfied their curiosity" said he, with
q characteristic pride In his grave and
cunning demeanor.s At the same time
he looked with q Jealous eye upon his
craft He hated what he called 'the
policy Of egoism, the policy OF good
pleasure" In his view the rival states
were all members Of human society, OF
which reciprocal forbearance was the
first duty. "Do not unto Others" said
he, that which you would NOT have
others do to you" An infexible bu-
reaucrat. he preserved his principles
inviolate, ana thus ths was abls to look
back upon singularly uniform career.
He adopted for his device ala force
dams IL droit," and he was certain that
the right was always on his side

Electric Eiaht Bulbs.

.SS1S @t9UI 0ut04s
e It has been remarked that the ef.ec-
tive life OF incandescent electric lamps
! Is much longer with clear than with
ground glass bulbs. B.. p. Hyde, ex-
plains this fact as follows: A thin de-
post Of carbon is formed ON the in
terror surface Of the bulbs, and this
absorbs certain portion Of the radia-
ton from the filament. When the
glass Is clear the light passes straight
through, suffering definite loss from
the the carbon flm. When the glass is
frosted the light undergoes many re-
Elections In the interior Of the bulb
from the innumerable facets. and At
each reflection It loses something on
account of the obstrucfing aim. The
consequences is that the total amount
OF loss Is much, greater with ground
glass than with, clear, glass. Mr.,
Hyde's experiments show that the fla.
ment lasts as long ii the one kind 81
bulb as ID the other YOUTHS Com

Hypnotic Their Victims.
Do snakes hypnotic the birds and
animals which they wish to capture

MES this. He had shut up a large
number OF rattlesnakes and moccasins
In a barn and then introduced birds
and small mammals into the place for
the snakes to seize as they chose
within two feet of coiled RATHER
blackbird would alight on the rim
Of the drinking trough and adjust the
defects Of his toilet, splashing water
in the very face Of the reptile that
watched him with piercing eyes.
Then after repeated sips he would con-
descend to notice the crawler, that
had uneoiled by that time, and would
fnally hop, aside Just far enough to
avoid dispute about bathing privi-
leges, but still within easy reach of
a strike. Nor had the restiessness oil
rats anything to do with the dread Of
Immediate danger. They were trying
to gnaw out, but In the Intervals of
such efforts were apt to rum stfasght

Indeed, the snakes we're Ia ID bur
