PLAN A PERPETUAL CALENDAR
All Nations to Unite In Working Out
an Idea Long In Minds OF
Many.

A conference of all nations will be
held next summer at Geneva, Switzer-
land. to discuss suggestions for an in
ternational perpetual calendar AZ that
time Leroy s. Boyd win present his
calendar, which has 10 months VI Is
days each, making total Of 364 days
in the year The 365th day ia not in
cluded in any month. but will precede
the first day Of January and VIII be
called New Years day. A similar ar
rangement is made for leap years The
366th day Is not counted in any month,
but follows the last day of December
and is called Leap Year day The ad-
ditional month is called Solaris, and
GENES between June and July. AS an
illustration, the year 1915 is used. be-
cause, according to the present calen-
dar the first day Of that year will be-
gin on Saturday, which would become
New Years day under the perpetual
calendar That would make the fol-
lowing day, Sunday, be known as Jan.
], 1916. Every month WOuld nave tue
same number Of days and every month
and every week would begin on Sun
day and end on Saturday. That would
make the same date In each month
fall on the same day OF the week
Such perpetual calendar would make
It unnecessary to have printed cal
endar for every month, because the
days Of each month are identical with
those of the first month One Of the
benefits expected to result from per
petual calendar is that II viii facih
tate business calculations. Under the
new system q month will mean ex
actly % days and not 80 or 81 days
as at present.

QUEER FISHES or THE SEA

Cuba ends to the south in huge
hammer of mountains 5000 feet high
and sleeping sheer into. the sea. The
wall does not end there, but con-
tinues its precipitous descent into the
E00-mile;long abyss called Bartletts
deep. TAis gigantic submarine valley
is'nearly four miles deep and so miles
wide.
At mile and half, the pressure
OF the water ia nearly two tons to the
Square finch; the ooze that comes up
from such a depth, though the equator
runs overhead, ia cold as hoar frost;
1t Is ten times certain that no vegeta.
ton can grow there.
AS in our world none but the vege-
tables are able to make food, It ought
| to follow that In the depths of the sea
there should be no animal life. AS a
matter of fact these glooms are In.
hnbited by the most grotesque and
chirnerical OF all fishes. 1t would seem
as though in the darkness life had
taken every ,imasinable license to be
ugly and bizarre. Cannibalism is evil
IDENTIFY the only method Of life, and Its
equipment runs to every kind Of ex.
travagance.
There are fish with teeth so long
that they cannot close their mouths
fish~that draw their stomach over
prey larger than themselves, fish with
no more mouth than a leech, and get.
ting their liyingfas leeches, fish with
huge, nlyopic eyes, and fish frankly

OF Greenland when Columbus crossed

again 1t may have been reared by the

dated steamships by many years. In
1871, a great berg appeared off st.
Johns, n. +. Its pinnacle was fully
100 feet above the sea, and it's base
formed glittering island in the MID
die OF which, inbedded between two
hills OF lee, were two ships side by
side. The masts were gone, but other
wise the upper works seemed to be
intact. Scattered about the decks
were various objects that might have
been the frozen bodies of the crews.
All were covered with snow. Several
old sailors approached the berg as
near as they dared to and scanned
| the ships through powerful glasses
| but could not see any name or any
| thing to indicate their nationality or
! business on the seas. There were NO
signs of life aboard them--nothing but
| the motionless masses under theii
white coverings. They were believed
