Lightning Bug Explained.

AT last the lightning bug secret has
been laid bare. y scientist has come
forvard with an explanation of how
the lawly lightning bug manufactures
its light. He .mparts the valuable bit
of information that 'luciferase oxidlz-
ing on another chemical compound,
called luciferin. produces zymosls OF
which the light is the outcome.
Sc it rs to be seen that the zymosls
is what really causes the light. But we
should like TO ask the learned man
who has given us this ehiidisily SIM
pie explanation, what would the poor
hug do if he went out into the night
far from home and suddenly discoN-
cred that he did not have any zymo-
sis in his tank And what would ne

An Economy That Failed.

The Joke seems to be on President
Wilson. A little advertised economy
has failed. The mileage for the extra
session has been already collected
It was quietly passed around at
washington that the President would
block a weeks adjournment of Con-
gress TO prevent members from col
lecting mileage to which none but
those who went home would be en-
titled.
In the vulgar but expressive Ian
euage of the hour, the members beat
the President to it" They got it last
spring. when two hundred thousand
dollars was disbursed to them at the
rate of twenty cents mile for the
distance between Washington and
their homes. The real question is not,
therefore, whether they shall collect
: mileage for the special session, of
which it was imagined they would be
deprived if Congress failed to adjourn
before the regular session, but wheth-
er they shall pay themselves mileage
for the regular session. They are
clearly entitled by law to mileage for
! the regular session. but an appropria
ton to pay it would be necessary,
and the burning question is, therefore
whether they would dare vote for
such an appropriation if it was re-
ported by the committees. As John j
Fitzgerald of New York. a Tammany-
ite is chairman of the House com
'mittee on appropriations, many mem
bers take it for granted that the mile
age appropriation will be included in
THE next legislative bill.
The interesting query now arises
whether President Wilson, with his
penchant for signing appropriation
bills containing items he does not APP
prove, would veto the legislative bin il
it provided for mileage, should Con-
gress fail to adjourn. Many member;
!, have little sympathy with his higf
moral purposes as far as mileage i:
concerned, for they have calculated
the travel money as part of their com
. pensation.
Here is a specimen of the demands
of the patriots:
