A Floor That Turns Over,

The floor in the Apollo theater in
Paris is reversible, one side being made
for dancing, the other being the usual
inclined floor equipped with the fold
ing seats of n theater auditorium. The
floor is mounted on a horizontal axis
on which II revolves. 1t is built on
a framework Of steel Orders, has an
area OF $500 square feet and weighs
100 tons. The axis, which is parallel
to the front Of the stage, is not in the
middle of the thickness Of the floor,
but nearer to the seating surface than
to the dancing surface. The floor
swings through an excavation over
thirty feet in depth.-Cement Age.

The Death Pain.

A reporter asked a well known sur
geon whether his experience as a med
ical man had led him to believe that
death IS painless.
Speaking generally" he said, "the
death agony IS very rarely attended
by pain, because the system Is always
prepared for death by a weakening of
the vital forces, by the circulation Of
impure blood through the brain and by
the obtunding Of the nerves. OF course
some people have more pain than
others, and this Is very largely deter
mined by temperament. A w
man-all other things being equal
suffers more pain than a man who
has enjoyed robust health, because
the nervous mans sensibilities are
stronger, but the pain of death is more
in the anticipation OF 1t than in the
reality. Men Of education face death
with greater fortitude than men who
are not educated. Women are almost
always pluckier than men. They en-
dure pain much better."-London

Men Who CRY on the Street.

Deaconess home in Chicago, land |

head, crying! No, he had not been
drinking. He looked like O respectable
workingman of middle age. / wanted
TO speak TO him, butt didn't. What
do you suppose was the matter?"
The deaconess whom he was address
ing said nothing. but she knew why
some respectable middle aged men"
walk the city streets crying. Visions
rose before her: \ man who had just
visited his boy. in Jail for stealing-a
man who has been hunting work for
three weeks and lost out'' every time,
TIL the dearly loved wife and baby at
home were literally starviDg-a man
who had just had n flashlight of his
own degradation and was comparing
II with the innocence of the clean
hearted lad that used to cuddle into
his mothers lap. The men go weeping
along the streets sometimes, but often
er far they go too dead at heart to
weep-Christian Herald.

A MISSING Leaf,

That ordinary care which Is taken
by the Japanese In their very exact
Flower arrangements" is illustrated
by an incident related by Frederic s.
Isham, the author. He was present
at a demonstration in Kyoto Of the
art Of placing flowers, leaves and
branches together in an artistic man
ner. At one point a little maid APP
parently offended the master" deeply.
He spoke to her and ended by order
tng her to retire. She did so, prob
ably the most broken hearted girl in
Kyoto, and the mast proceeded to
alter her work. IT .merican, who
had seen nothing 0ng, ventured to
ask what was the matter, whereupon
'he was informed that she had placed
twelve leaves III a certain combina-
ton instead of thirteen. Twelve, it
seems, was the right number 200
years ago. but thought, study, medita-
ttion and prayer had led TO the discov-
cry that not twelve. but thirteen, was
the correct number for the artistic
effect of that particular arrangement.
This may seem a trifling alteration,
but it suggests Michelangelo's retort,
in which he pointed out the relation
between tribes and perfection.

Insects That initiate ostriches.

The habit of the ostrich Of burying
its head and imagining that 1t has
eluded discovery is copied after a
fashion by certain insects, according
to DIR. G.. Rodman in his lectures on
the subject of the stick insect, or ba-
killus rossi, which he has cultivated.
These insects, which are so called be,
cause of their resemblance to dry
sticks, have two fore legs which they
fold completely over their eyes when
disturbed and evidently think that in
SO doing they themselves are lost to
view. The eggs Of these insects, DR..
Rodman says. take something over six
months to hatch. They are only one
tenth Of an inch in their longest Ii
ameter, and by some miracle an in
sect which at Matching is three-quar-
tiers of an inch in length is packed
into them. The stick insects destroy
the weaklings Of their number by eat
ing their legs.-Westminster Gazette.
