The Moth and the Candle.

It Is not because the moth is nsht. hearted. needless and utterly frivolous as we have always been told. that it plunges headlong into the flame. but because of the way that its body l. constructed. says Kaempnert the well known student of physical science. There are two symmetrical points, ex. actly alike chemically, on the moths body-namely. its eyes. If the rays of light modify the chemical conditions of one side more than the other then the moths power of movement Is af. fected. There is . stronger muscular tension on one side than on the other, and the moth Is forced to move toward the source of light If. however. one of the eyes Is removed the chemical symmetery Is destroyed and instead of plunging into the flame 1t moves about in a circle. There arc other ani- mals and insects besides the moth which are hopelessly in the grip of light If snail is placed between . white wall and a black wall the un. equal lighting forces 1t to crawl In ( circleI-Chicago Tribune

The Australian Appetite.

An Australian paper gives some sur prising statistics of what the average Australian eats. Apparently he has the best appetite, if not the best diges- ton. of any human being on the plan ct. He eats every year 264 pounds of meat. which works out at an average of two sheep and oneflfth of . bull lock for every man. woman and baby in Austra lasia. He eats more than twice as much meat as the average Englishman, three times as much aa the average Frenchman and four times as much as the average German or Swiss. He eats. in addition. about three and three-Quarters hundred. weight of wheat. two and half hun. dredweisht of potatoes and almost one hundredweight of sugar. If he is . Tasmanian he eats a quarter of . ton of potatoes In a year.

SOUTH DAYTON, O., March 2s.-
Eight hundred dead is the average
estimate OF seven-e eighths of Dayton's
undertakers, called together for
conference tonight. They reported 50
bodies had been recovered. Individual
estimates of the undertakers were from
500 to 1000, but the consensus of opin-
ion was that 500 would be a conserva-
tive figure Exploration of several
recesses of. the city today by news
paper men hardly would justify such
an estimate.
Daytons period of reconstruction
will run into months, according to en-
gineers just returning from the flood
district. Disposition of dead animals
and the disinfecting of thousands OF
submerged homes presented the press
ing problem.

Effects of the strict martial law
were to be seen on all sides. Only in
extraordinary circumstances were Pc
destrians permitted upon the streets

some sections of the central Dayton
district persisted, but it was believed
raiding was restricted to isolated IN
stances. One man was said to have
filled several suitcases with jewelry.
He was arrested. Reports that several
looters had been shot could not be
confirmed.
A bulletin issued from the Offices OF
the citizens relief committee gave
particular warning to guard against
disease. It was announced that an
attempt would be made to start the
city's water supply tomorrow.
