TRANSPARENT Butterfly,

In Our Search For Wilderness
William Beebe OF the New York ZOO
logical park describes his first sight of
the transparent butterfly tHoetera pie
RAJ of British Guiana. an insect through
whose outstretched wings any sub
stance on which it rests can be clearly
seen.
''As we crossed swirling creek on
the trunk of a mighty fallen tree some
thing futtered ahead he writes. I'VE
could not see what 1t was. Closer we
came. and still the object remained In
distinct. We seemed to see a butterfly,
and yet that appeared impossible At
last we marked it down on fern
frond and crept up until our eyes were
within two feet of it, Nothing was
visible but the graceful lacework of
the frond until a slanting beam Of
sunlight struck 1t. and there. close be-
fore us. was a butterfly that spread
fully three inches, but was wholly
transparent, save for three tiny spots
of azure near the margin OF each hind
wing
''As we looked it drifted to a double
headed flower of scarlet. and when ii
alighted the scarlet of the flower and
the green of the leaf were as distinct
as If seen through thin mica, and the
faint gray haze of the insects wings
was marked only by the indistinct vena- |

PEACE ENJOYS
IN DEADLOCK
Conference Is Suspended as
Turks Will Not Yield
Any
NO DATE FOR
IT'S RESUMPTION
Negotiations Are Not Re-
garded as Definitely
Broken Off

| London, Jan. when the Turkisi
Balkan peace conference ended late yes
! terday afternoon there was uncertainty
at first as to whether or not the negotia.
tions had been broken off. One of the
J Turks said that the delegates expected
to meet soon again, but adjournment was
taken without any future meeting being
agreed upon. Later it was learned that
there was still nope OF continuing the
negotiations.
When the lenipotentiaries reassam-
bled yesterday afternoon Reehid Pasha
said that the Turkish delegates were
without authority to make further con-
cessions, and DIR. Daneff, for the allies,
said that Turkeys present proposals
could not be accepted,
The official announcement was that
the peace conference was suspended, and
no definite date Of its resumption was
mentioned 1t was the opinion in diplo-
matte circles that the delegates of the
allies would wait few days before
formally breaking off negotiations, in
order to give Turkey time to think mat.
tiers over and make further concessions,
or perhaps to permit the powers to step
in and mediate.
Watchers knew that negotiations had
not been wrecked when DR. Daneff and
the Servians emerged, laughing, from st.
James palace.
DIR. Daneff explained that there would
be no session of the peace conference to-
day, it being the Christmas day of the
Greek church.
The Bulgarian leaders explanation
was taken to be more or less facetious,
but he seriously declared that the ne
gotiations We're not definitely brokenot.
He said that the allies merely declared
that they could not accept the
terms offered by the Turks at the last
session. The Ottoman ENJOYS replied
that they were unable to better their
proposals at this time. The adjourn
ment was indefinite because the Turks |
,ould not tell when they would hear
again from Constantinople.
The opening of Yesterdays session |
was delayed for some time by a con-
ference between the Turkish delegates
md representatives of the great powers.
L was believed that the powers were
making a last effort to induce the Turks /
10 yield and end the war.
The ambassadors of the powers re-
umed their conversation simultaneously
i the foreign Office.
Although the Turks in their latest
proposals made further concessions to
he allies in Thrace and gave way on
he status OF Crete they refused to give
Up Adrianople, which was the chief de-
nand of Bulgaria.

Tidy Rooms for Business Women.

1t is so discouraging to a business
woman to come back into an untidy
room after hard days work that il
would be well for every woman who has
/ to earn her own living to see to it that
the spot she calls her own-whether it
/ be hall bedroom, a room shared with a
4 friend or sister, or her own room in the
midst of the family life-will be found
I in order, neatness and cleanliness when
she comes into it as evening falls.
In fact, an untidy room is more than
discouraging. 1t is disheartening. It
takes the backbone and ambition out OF
any one. And it is not at all a necessary
adjunct of the business life even when
the business woman has to rely more or
less. or even entirely upon her own in
dividual efforts to keep it in order.
A room well aired, fresh, clean and
sweet holds in itself refreshment and
rest. Within its four walls, no matter
how simple they may be, comfort and
peace may be found. All these things
are just what business woman needs
after her days work, and she will not
find them if she does not see TO it that
her own room waits for her clean and
tidy.
If the room is once in order it will not
be a great amount of trouble to keep il
that way, though it may take little !
thought just at first to get into the !
habit of orderliness, especially if one has
allowed herself to grow slack. A BUSH |
ness woman is so hurried that she is
apt to let things slip triiie and to feel /
that she has not the time or the energy /
to keep her room and her bureau draw
ers immaculate. This is often the case
even when she goes out to her work
looking perfectly groomed herself. Such
an idea is incorrect, however; she would
save time and energy as well as expert
ence a new comfort and pleasure. if she
refused to let things slide and kept all
her belongings in apple pie order"
If things have been allowed to get

LineoIn's Chin Fly Story.

Lincoln used to illustrate the point

IL seems that once man was piow-
Ing with very lazy mule. Suddenly
the mule lifted its head. switched its
stump OF tail and went across the
field at a rapid walk and with most
unusual energy.
Reaching the end of the row. there
was man on the fence. When the
mule and man came up the fellow got
down, walked over To the mule and
bit him a slap on the jaw. at the same
time remarking. We'll. ! killed him

New York. Jan. Tin attempting to
intercept $50 young women leaving
work in the J. l.. Taylor compauy's
wholesale clothing factory this evening,
500 striking garment workers, ma
jority of them women, attacked the po-

The police used their club on the
outstretched arms of the strikers who
attempted to seize the girls. The girls
were rushed away in automobiles. This
was the only disturbance of the day,
which marked the beginning of massed
picketing by strikers. Strike leaders
claimed 10000 workers were out and
that trade was at standstill.

Do the same with your closet Have
all the coats and dresses in rows on their

are in order the room itself will not need
much picking up and arranging, and

1t simply comes down to single SEN

see to it that it is there when it is not
in use.

it is in order it will be sweet, dainty
