object of keen interest throughout the
voyage particularly as he embarked so
unexpectedly after the open air demon

choice was George Ward of DeFuniaS
The nominations of Perkins and
Brown will be sent to the senate by
President Wilson upon his return from

Power of Suggestion.

. What he calls an effective sugges- ton test" is given by Professor Hugo Munsterberg in an article on How Can We Know Ourselves" in the Youths Companion. "Draw several pairs of circles" writes the psvchol0- gist. 'and let your friend decide which circle in each pair is the larger. In some cases make one circle slightly larger than the other; usually. how ever. make the circles of each pair the same size. In each circle write a fig Ire of two digits. Although the circles are alike. you will find that if in one you have written a small number. such as twenty-one. and in the other q larger number. such as seventy-nine. the boy or girl who is open to sugges- ton will tell you that the circle that contains the higher number Is the lar ger. The size of the number suggests wrong idea about the size of the cir cleS,"

All dreams are rapid. A tutor fell asleep as scholar was reciting. dreamed a little playlet and awoke to hear the end of the boys sentence, elapsed time not more than fifteen sec onds. Touch. sight and hearing are prominent in dreams, but taste and smell exceptionally rare. Dreams can be made to order by outsiders, but not by the dreamer. Yell Fire in the ear of a sound sleeper or allow a sud den draft of cold air to play on the back of his neck and he will dream to order. but he can't go to sleep with his mind made up to dream of any certain thing and then actually dream Of it.

Steer Clear of the PoIice-

One thing that couvicts careless au- tomobile drivers beyond all else. says the New York Times, is that none of them ever runs oown a traffic patrol man. Hunareds and hundreds of blue Doats are on crossing duty in New York every day of the year, and if they were not protected by their uni form their calling would be extra haz- ardous. They stand in what for civil ians would be the most dangerous po- sitions eiyable-right in the mid dle of the tide of traffic. with automo- piles and motorcycles and other ve- hicles passing them by dozens, scores. hundreds. thousands, and on holidays tens of thousands. There is nothing to prevent any traffic policeman from being crushed at any moment of his days work. No matter how stout he may be. his bulk could not stop an au- tomobile. Yet the significant fact re- mains that he is not run down.

When Francis, duke of Lorraine. and his wife were awaiting death in the prison of Nantes they chose as the day for an attempt to escape the 1st of April.
 Disguised as peasants. says a chron- icler. the one bearing a bod on his shoulder, the other carrying basket of rubbish on her back. they both at an early hour of the day passed through the gates of the city. A woman having a knowledge of their persons ran to the guard to give notice to the sentry.

Curves of Japanese Roofs.

Western architects are often puzzled by the origin of the Japanese roof curve and the ease with which Japa- nese carpenters can so accurately con struct what their architects design. The curve of Japanese temple roof Is about as difficult line to draw as man has contrived, but how the Japa- nese artists themselves succeed so well In reproducing it has never been ex- plained. Modern artists and writers see in these unique and beautiful curves a resemblance to the sagging outlines of the primitive tents used ages ago by the forefathers of the Jap anese race. who dwelt on the burning plains of China. but there does not ap- pear to be any evidence to support such a conclusion. The curve is catenary. the most beautiful perhaps of all natural curves, formed by gravi- tation when a chain or cord is suspend
 cd between two points.-London Globe.

Bulwer's Deafness.

If Byron was possessed of an enor- nous vanity Sir Edward Bulwer-Lyt- ton was quite his equal in that re- spect. There was a medium by the name of Home. who in the course of an eventful life held spiritualistic meetings in the United States, Eng land and on the continent of Europe; was expelled from Rome as sor- cerer; married twice. each time to a Russian lady of rank. and published various books. Home was particularly disliked by Charles Dickens, who ap- piled to him all the hard names of which he could think. MT. Bigelow once remarked to Dickens that Bulwer had faith in the medium. "Oh, yes" Dickens replied, "but you see Bulwer is deaf and does not like to have it remarked; so Home would say, Do you hear those rapsT and Bulwer would say, oh, yes, heard them per fectly.'
