Facial contortions Bad Form.

great many of our facial cOntor-
tons are due to nervousness. just as
we owe to the same cause equally OBJ
noxious habits of tapping with the
foot and handling small objects which
happen to be within reach of restless
fingers.
All of these annoying little habits
are due to "A lack of repose and lack of
training in early youth to acquire con
troll OF the nerves.
So unconscious are the perpetrators
Of these tricks that they will actually
find fault with other people for like
habits and be ignorant that they them
selves are guilty of similar bad breed
ing.
1t is really i'll bred to have these rest
less habits, no matter how unconscious
one is of possessing them, for anything
is Ill bred that gives annoyance to
others.
Facial contortions and grimaces are
usual among womankind. and it really
is too bad. because after awhile they

In his little book called THE Ele-

an element as IA substance from
which by the operation of ordinary
chemical processes only one kind Of
matter can be obtained" This is some
thing quite different from the four cIa.
ments Of Aristotle-fre. water, earth
and air-Or the salt, sulphur aud mer
curry Of the ulchemists. Even in mod
ern times the conception of what an
element really is has changed some
what. Sir William adds: Until quite
recently the elements of the inorganic
world were supposed to be fixed, i'm
mutable with the lapse of ages or vu-
der the mighty forces concerned in tn.

years we have learned that the atoms
at least are continually crumbling
away. 1t is impossible to say whether
all may not be suffering slow waste

RAIDERS
halted the paraders and demanded uu
explanation The count said he was
on his way home and had bought the
sofa and that it was his property.
The officer probably thought the ques-
ton of propriety too important for
him to decide and escorted the pris-
oners. including the sofa. into the
presence of the precinct captain. The
count told his story and presented his
receipt for the sofas purchase. The
captain verified these statements by
telephoning to the restaurant propri-
etor and advised his unwilling guests
to go home.
In less than an hour the captain was
astonished to have the sofa and los
retinue of attendants brought before
him by another officer. The party was
released second time. The incident
was repeated three times. and the cap
tain was becoming a fit subject for
the madhouse when he had brilliant
idea. Four officers were ordered to
march with the count. the sofa and the
party to escort them home.
Slowly the procession moved toward
the shore. When landing place was
reached the count and his friends
made a jump for the bridge. where a
motor launch was in waiting. Amid
the cheers of the crowd the launch
sped away. leaving the officers to
carry the sofa YEARLY back to the po-
lice station.
