''The World
 Set Free'

By H. G. Wells, is the most wonder full prophetic piece of modern litera- ture. It describes the worlds final war, in which Europe is devastated, London, Paris and Berlin in flames, Holland submerged by cutting her dy- kes, the clouds are filled with battling aeroplanes. All frontiers and dynasties are wiped out, all crowns and thrones have crumbled, and the whole world becomes one nation forever.
 You will shudder and be thrilled by turns, and above
 all you will marvel at the splendor and accuracy
 the authors vision.

q FLEA is an insect kangaroo ABOUT
~ as large as a pin head, to the
a eve. and a little larger than
well drilling outfit to the sense or feel-
ing
The flea has hard shell and set OF
extremely talented legs. Because OF
these legs the flea can do what no other
animal or insect has ever been able to
accomplish. He can be IN two places
at once-under the thumb OF an angry
man and four feet away, getting ready
to Jump again.
This is an astonishing statement, bus
can be proved by several million peOpls
who have hunted the flea with murderOus
intent at one time or another. 1t Is
perfectlv EASY to place a large horny
thumb ON a small flea while he IS sitting
in an attitude Of quiet meditation Every
one does it. When the owner OF the
thumb has put it over the flea he VIII
readily bet all he has that the Ilea Is
there. But a careful examination VIII
usually disclose him a yard or more
away admiring the scenery. Those pa
tent DIPLOMATS. who have been hanging
around the department Of state since
March and Invariably asking Tor the
secretary on the wrong day, call the
flea the William Jennings Bryan family
The flea Is very small, but he can
lump farther than the mppopOtamus- he
can lump several nuuuIeu times MS O"A
length If man were as good jumper
as the flea. he would treat the elevators
In the WoOlworth building with quiet
scorn and would leap lightly to the cor
nice from Broadway. However, after
the flea has spent several hours eXecut-
ING Drodigious Jumps he Is usually With
in 10 inches of the spot where he began.
This would fill us with great contempt
for the flea's intelligence if we did not

Some Wonders Of Nature
BY GARRETT P. sERvIss.

N he takes take -'a' I new interest in in
= other flying animals, the num-
Der of which, turns out to be surpris-
ingly large when ones attention is
called to them. The birds are simply
the most advanced type of filters, for
the power OF hight is by no means
confined to the avian family.
The bird is believed to be de-
Scendant of reptiles or dragons, which
acquired wings and learned to lily
ages ago. Some of the family or rep
tiles still retain the ability to fly, and
since they represent the ancestral line
of the birds it is natural to begin
with them in looking over the list OF
flying animals now in existence
The shlamydOsaurus of Australia, a.
kind of lizard, has a huge Eliza
bethan ruff about the neck which
serves as parachute, enabhnS the
animal to jump out into the ar from
a height and descend safely to the
ground. When not in use the ruff IS
folded along the fOreshOulders. Ac-
cordlng to some authors, the huge
ruff of the chlamydosaurus IS also IN
tended, or at least used, as means
Of frightening off enemies, and Its
aspect seems well calculated for that
purpose.
The Flying Dragon.
The flying dragon has kind OF
wings, covered with horny scales,
which it folds along its body when it
Is not launching itself in a flying
jump.
The flying frog has its wings at
tached to its feet in the form of
broad, thin membranes stretched be-
tween the toes
OF course, none of these reptiles
IS true filler, and yet they do man
age with the aid of their singular
locomotive organs to pass cOnsidera-
bic distances through the air. Their
achievements in aerial navigation are
about comparable with those of the
earliest eXperimenters with aero
planes.
The struggle for existence which
leads animals of many species to
prey upon one another probably led
to the development of a certain power
OF flight in several species of fish.
FURNISHED with wings. small fish are
able to leap from the water when
pursued, and launch themselves for
long distances through the air. Every
sea vOyager has seen flying fish
skimming above the waves, and Oc-
casionally landing on the deck of
ship.
Flying Squirrels.
Arboreal, or tree-dwelling animals
might naturally be expected to de-
velop the power of flight, as a con-
siderable number have done. Many of
these are popularity known as flying
squirrels. Their organs of flight con-
sist of extensions of the furry skin
at the sides Of the body, which can

"Spring is a great institution" agreed

1.-THE cold autumn rains are Just the

two or three months that fell disease
conducts a carnival of crime in my per-

ailment don't know what trouble is.
I always get it in the foot and that

pain is perfectly absurd. L sit up for
a while, until I can't stand it any
longer, and then lie down only to find
that the torture is 40 times worse. And
the worst of it is that l am always hit
ting that foot against the legs OF tables
and the edges of doors, or dropping big
photograph albums on II, or stepping on
walnut shells with it.
MY rheumatism usually takes sts de-

pare for the regular winter galaxy of
diseases, including toothaGhe and neu-
raIgia, and kindred tortW es. 1 think
winter is the worst season of all for
