Tho Mystery of the Missing Arms of
the Famous Statue.
Through the publication of some
quaint manuscripts which have never

French academician and man of let
tiers, produces evidence that the arms
of the Venus de Milo were broken of
in fight between French and Turkish
forces for possession of the figure.
Both arms, according to the manu-
scripts, were in place when the statue
was first discovered in 1920 The right
arm descended a little below the hips.

their government to buy it at any cost.
obtained the prize only at the cost of a
sharp scrimmage with the crew of a
Turkish brig, the commander of which
had been instructed by a Greek prince
at Constantinople to bring the statue to
him. In the struggle. in which ffty
sailors took part on each side and in
which shots ard saber cuts were freely
exchanged, the goddess was thrown to
the ground. and her ans were broken

To the Kings Taste.

King Leopold of Belgium frequented
certain cafe in Paris when he was in
the city. He had private apartments
on the second floor. where he had his
meals served for him.
One night he went to his cafe. but
was met by the manager, who told
him in great trepidation that he could
not have his private dining room that
night
Leopold raised a frightful rumpus.
He was king of the Belgians, and he
demanded to know who could keep
him out of the room. Presently a
voice came from behind the door,
"Who is that making such row out
there?"
The manager explained.
oh" said the voice, ''let him come
in If he likes" King Leopold went in
and found the person who had his Ia
vorite dining room was the king Of

BROKE UP THE GAMES.
charIey's Antics With His "Bread ar
Butter am Sugar On"

OnarioTs Antics WIN Ills Bread an
Butter am Sugar On"
Charley was a nice husky boy, but
he had one serious fault, which deem
it my duty to mention. although it was
perhaps a natural symptom of real boy
hood. In the middle of an exciting
game of woolly -woolly-wolf, three-old-
cat, nibs or Skinny he would slip away
home. to return presently with a per-
fectly paralyzing slice of bread an but
ter an sugar on.
Now, If you were ever q boy yourself
you'll agree that Charley was very i'm
moral to behave that way. The effect
was always disastrous. The game
would come to an immediate halt,
while every kid in the bunch gazed
longingly at Charley's lunch, each of
US Illuminating silently on the wisdom
of a combined attack, since noie of US
would for moment think of trying to
share the tempting tidblt single hand
ed. And that. too. you will say was
natural enough if you've been boy
But the particular reason why Char
ley's ofense was Immoral was the way
be carried his bread an butter an sugar
on. He didn't hold it in the grasp of
his hand like other boys; he elevated it
daintiIy on the tips of his fingers and
thumb. just as waiter carries a tray
That. / say. was immoral And he ate
around ii in concentric circles, ever APP
preaching the supreme saccharine pin
nacle of palatability at the geograph
zeal center of the slice. But long be.

THE FIELD OF VISION.
Even Persons With Normal Eyes Ar
Partially Color Blind.

Even Persons With Normal Eyes Ar.
Partially Color Blind.
The various tests for color blindnes.
have come into practical use In the ex
animation of railroad engineers ant
the like, where the ability to distin
guish colors is necessary, so that these
tests are no longer peculiar to the lab
oratory. But ii is not generally known
outside the laboratory that everybody
is partially color hlind-that is, in Ger
tain parts of the field of vision.
The most normal individual can sec
all the colors only when be looks di
rectly at them. If looked at from al
angle of about fifteen degrees red anG
green can no longer be seen. but il
their places will appear shades of vel
low or blue. This region of the eye is
known as the yellow blue zone If the
color be moved still farther to the side
the yellow and blue will disappear ant
only gray can be seen. This region Is
known as the zone Of complete color
blindness.
AL Interesting lneory III reRdru u
these zones is that every normal eye
represents three stages of evolution
The zone of complete color blindness
is the lowest stage and appears III
such animals as the frog. whose vi
sion is known as shadow vision. The
blue-yellow zone is one step higher in
the scale. although not clearly marked
off in the animal kingdom. And the
appearance of the red-green zone
marks the highest stage of evolution
Cases of color blindness are. according
to this theory. lack of development
beyond the early stage in the individ
ual life.-Professor Poffenberger in

Verdi as a Politician.

The name of Verdi, we are told, was
a political and patriotic symbol. He
belonged TO the Italian Nationalist
party. and his name was scrubbed on
the walls of Italian towns which were
under Austrian rule This honor, how
ever, us is carefully explained. was not
paid to Verdi himself. as his name hap
pened by accident to be formed by the
initial letters of "Victor Emmanuel
Roi d. ltalie." with which inscription
Italian patriots often cover their walls.
Verdi was a politician. He was elected
deputy. and subsequently Emmanuel
made him senator The story is told
that the maestro was in the habit of
orchestating the sittings of the cham
Der of deputies and noting the tone OF
the various speakers, so that he could
go up to each of them in the lobby and
tell him that his speech was in such

CHANCES Of Climate.

A scientist who recently investigat-
ed the causes of secular variations in
temperature at the earth's surface
thinks that they are more probably
due to changes in the amount of car
bonic acid in the atmosphere than to
variations in the heat Of the sun. If
the amount of carbonic acid that the
air now contains was diminished a
little more than half the mean tenn
perature all over the earth would. it is
stated. drop about eight degrees.
which would be sufficient to bring Oh
another glacial period. On the other
hand, an increase Of carbonic acid be-
tween two and three times its present
amount would raise the mean temper
allure fifteen degrees and renew the
hot times of the eocene epoch. '

 His wife appearRd before Lieuten- ant Suckley at police headquarters bearing in her hand a photograph of the man as he appeared beside her on their wedding day and told how he had not returned to supper on 5atur- day night, although she had kept the meal hot until II o'clock. She told of his previous fidelity and good habits and as he failed to draw his money when he left the Graphophone Com pany on Friday last, the authorities are inclined to believe that some ac- cident has befallen him.

SPECTRE=LIKE FIGURE
 HAUNTS LAKEVIEW HOME
Supposed Apparition Is EysipeIas Patient With ChaIk-Like Face and Night Robes
 Escaped from Isolation Hospital

It was a ghost that roamed the woods and meadowlands behind Lake view in the early dawn of sunrise this morning, according to the belief of more than one frightened pedestrian and driver over the lonely stretches of road. It was the same apparition in virgin white vestments from head to foot, with a chalk white face and glaring eye-balls, that so frightened attendants upon the Lakeview Home premises that they huddled within an outbuilding and at five o'clock this morning sent hurried telephone calls to Merle Cowles. superintendent of the institution for help.
 Again 1t was the stalking spectre that Cowles, backed by his reinvig- orated assistants overcame and found to be one Lunney. an escaped erysipe- las patient who had wandered in nightrobe and bandaged head from the Board of Health isolation hospital dur ing a fit of delirium. The chalk-white appearance of his face which had so frightened all who overlook him on the roads was due to ointment which had been applied.
 Taken to a cell in the Home he
