His Conquest.

He was a simon pure, edition de
luxe lady killer. The girl in the seat
opposite him was easy to look at.
Further, she looked demure and shy
and impressionable. 1t wasn't long
before he had things going right-he
thought. He had raised the window
for her and readjusted the blind; he
had fished her bag from under the
seat, where the porter had showed it:
he had placed her pillow in a better
position for her: he had handed her a
magazine; he had looked after her
comfort in every way he possibly
could, and she had been very sweet
about it besides. He thought he was
coming along splendidly. She started
to get off the train before he expected
her to leave, but he carried her lug
gage to the platform for her. Then
she turned and handed him a nickel
with a sweet smile and the remark.

A Dozen Men Might Stand Upright In

Specimens Of the blue or sulphur
bottom whale weighing seventy five
tons and measuring eighty seven feet
have been known. The mouth is sufi-
cientIy large to permit ten or twelve
men to stand upright In it. but the
throat measures only about nine
inches in diameter.
The "inback." closely related to the
blue whale, has been called the grey
hound of the sea-" for its long, slender
body is built on the lines Of a racing
yacht, and the animal can equal the
speed of the fastest steamship.
The ''humpback" is the most inter

the fact that Its habits are more easily
studied than are those Of other mem

Is This Why English
Beauties Are So Fair?
CFrom London Herald)

Ever since the discovery that merco-
lized wax would absorb and remove a
soiled complexion, its use by ladies
as a substitute for toilet creams has
grown rapidly. A perfect complexion
can be maintained indefinitely If this
remarkable substance is used. Its
beneficient cleansing, clearing and
preventative action is quickly appar-
ent and ladies who have been paying
as high as a guinea a jar for special
cream" from beauty specialists, soon
recognize that mercolized wax out
ranks them all. 1t has become so pop
ular that it can be obtained at all
chemist shops in the British Isles.
American druggists also have great
demand for it, in original one-ounce
packages. The favorite way of using
is to apply it, like cold cream, before
retiring, washing it off in the morn
ing.
The saxolite lotion for wrinkles and
the facial contour has also become ex-
tremely popular. One ounce powdered
saxolite is dissolved in one-half pint
witch hazel. Bathing the face in this
has splendid effect.

How the katydid Sings.

Everybody is familiar with the rasp,
ing notes known as the katydid's
song" It is the male only that is ca.
pable Of emitting the we'll known
sounds. and he does 1t in a most pc.
culiar manner. His vocal organs" are
at the base of his wings and consist OF
two fat excrescences of thin. dry mem
brane. It is the rubbing of these two
membranous plates together which pro.
duces the song" If your shoulder
blades were so loosely put together
that one could be slipped under the
other and the underside of one and
the upper side of the other were so
rough that the operation Of slipping
them past each other would cause a
rasping sound you could initiate the
katydid's musical efforts very nicely.
