Bismarck khand 3.

Bismarck had an iHtense aversion to l3 but veneration for the num- Der 3. His reasons for his pre- affection were that he served three masters; he was responsible for and fought in three great wars: he signed three treaties of peace: he arranged the meeting of three emperors: he es- tablished the triple alliance: i'll the Franco Prussian war three horses were killed under him: he had three names tRiSmarck. Schoenhausen and Lauen- hursl; he acquired three titles count prince. dukel: the ancient arms "f his family are leaf of clover and three oak leaves. His family motto. "ln trinitate robur" cStrength in trin- ity",. was surely in itself sufficient to give a leaning in this particular direc- ton. So closely were his feelings as soeiated with the triple number that the caricaturiSts represented him with three hairs on his head. He had three children.

YOUNG DUCKS.
They Have No instinctive Impulse to
 Enter the Water

Enter the Water
 It has turned out. under the search ing experimentation of recent years, that much that We have supposed to be instinct in animals is not instinct at aL. For example, the young duck proves to have no instinctive impulse 10 enter the water does not recognize lie element by sight and is. in short. in precisely the same situation as chick until. by happy chance. it gets it's legs wet. Wet legs. however. and the lift of the water on the body at once start up the swimming reaction. and away sails the duckling. as chick CHS and children do not.
 The chick. on it's part. has definite instinct to peck at any small object that catches it's eye. That takes care of it's feeding. But the chick has no corresponding instinct to drink and would die of thirst before it would recognize water by sight alone. Drink ing it has to learn for itself by peck ing at dewdrops or spots of light on the surface of the water or particles at the bottom of it's cup. Even the hen. contrary to general belief, proves to have no instinctive fear of the wa ter for her offspring A hen that has raised a few broods of ducks and seen them take to the water becomes highly distressed when a subsequent hatch of chickens do not swim. In fact. hens have been reported under these cir cumstances to lead their chicks to the waterside and push them in.-Mc- Cures Magazine

NESTS IN GULF WEED.
Breeding Place of the Flying Fish In
 the Sarqasso Sea.

Breeding Place of the Flying Fish la
 the Sargasso Sea.
 In the middle of the north Atlantic there is an area of comparatively still water almost equal to continental Europe in extent and more or less covered with floating seaweed. It was known as the Mar de. Sargaco to Co., lumbuS and the early navigators and is the SarGasso sea of modern geOg- raphers.
 The floating seaweed was formerly supposed to have grown near the Ba- hama and Florida shores and to have drifted to it's present position. It is now, however, known to grow and propagate itself where it is found. In it are found globu!ar masses of weed containing fish eggs and known as fish nests.
 Investigat tions show that the floating weed of the Sargasso sea is the chosen breeding place of species of flying fish. The eggs found in the nests were at tributed to certain species of fish found resting on them. but careful examina- ton of the eggs shows that they really belong to flying fish.
 Apparently. however. the flying fish do not make the nests themselves. Each end of the egg of these fish is furnished with punches of very long lilamentary tendrils, and by means of these the finely divided branches of the Sargassum weed have been caught together in globular masses. The eggs may be said to have made their own St.-Lon0On Field.

The Nicaragua Affair.

From the New Orleans Picayune.-
The demand of the United States gov
eminent upon President Zelaya for an
immediate and full explanation Of the
execution of two Americans captured
in the ranks of the insurgents is en-
inently proper. While foreigner
serving in revolutionary force prac-
tically forfeits his right to protection
by his own government, international
custom and justice demand that for
eigners so serving who are captured
should not be summarily dealt with
or punished in any way without due
process of law. While the sentence
of death by court-martial is still recog-
nized as a legitimate punishment Of
rebels caught with arms in their
hands, common practice in modern
times has dictated more lenient treat
ment, except where the circumstances

Items Gathered in
From Far and Near
Our Navy.

From the Omaha Become hopeful
sign in our own country is that the
future evolution of the navy promises
to be along lines that may make for
economy The strategists having
auxiliary vessels, the navy promises to
be confined to two classes. the bat
tleships and the destroyers. Simpli-
fled batteries are promised for the
dreadnoughts, and inasmuch as the
naval battles of the future are likely
to be confined largely to long range
fighting, it is probable that fewer war-
ships will be needed and that no ex-
haustive addition to our present pro-
gram need be made. AS far as our
country is concerned, it must main
tain a navy sufficient to operate il

Thinks Primer of Sanitation
Should Be introduced
In Schools.
IT DEALS WITH DISEASES
HEALTH OFFICER STATES HE
WILL RECOMMEND THE BOOK
TO SCHOOL BOARD FOR USE IN
THE LOWER GRADES.

City Health Officer DR.. Charles s.
Bond today received a book which he
believes would be a valuable addition
to the text books of the public
schools. The book is called The
Primer of Sanitation" and is published
by the World Book Company at Yonk-
ers-on-th e.Hudson, New York. 1t deals
with the various disease germs. how
diseases are contracted, how to pre-
vent or ward off an attack of the diff
ferent maladies, and the care of ones
body The book is illustrated and the
substance is explained in perfectly
clear, logical and simple manner in
such a way as to be easily grasped by
the children.
Views of Dr.. Bond.
Dr. Bond stated that he would rec
ommend the book to the school board
for use in the lower grades of the pub
lie schools of the city. He stated that
more attention should be paid to the
hygiene and physical care of the body
and that to most children such a
ehihe "oo ~ oSIiSoiiy "Ahho"h' Iie
declared that if some of the old stud
les were replaced by new and more
modern study of the body and the
children were taught the first rudi-
ments of right living from a stand
point of sanitation, the benefits reaped
from such a course would soon be
apparent and the health Of the future
generations would be of much higher
standard as a result. The new study
has been tried in several of the larger
cities and found to be very successful.
Dr. Bond recommends that it be given
a try in this city at least and feels GER
tain that the profits derived from it's
introduction will justify it's continu.
ance.

THANKSGIVING

In this day and generation we are
more concerned with cranberries and
turkey and the stuffing thereof than
with any thought of the Puritan Faith
ers, stern and quite forbidding in their
aspect. If the Pilgrims are given their
due In having added most American
festival, they have at the same time
had the same cause to turn over in
their graves that those who are respon-
sible for our Glorious Fourth might
feel at the modern celebration of that
memorable day The old Virginian
Cavaliers must smile from the crack
ing portraits in their country places at
the discontinue of their New England
contemporaries.
But if we sit around in a grumpy
fashion until we can fall upon the tur.
key and devour it with it's accompa.
nying appetizing morsels and COM
plain about everything in general We
can scarcely destroy Thanksgiving.
The impress of the Puritans is upon
us-like it or not.
