 The false Everett George Drake took it upon himself Co call at the Ritz for her mail, aud returning with word that there was none for her. Ruth felt a strange premonition that matters were not progressing as they should.
 Mrs. Daruell found her gazing out of the drawing room window. huddled in pathetic little heap, deiection stamp ed on features and form

 Every minute was one Of delight to the unsophsticated girl. ond each new sight and vista opened a new world 10 her inexperienced mind.

As left haudedness is an inherited characteristic, apparently behuying as MendeIiau rccessive, 1t Is interesting to note the belief Of some investigators char it is one Of the stigmsts Of deeek- aracy, says the Journal Of Hefedity. Rufdeiebeu is quoted In German peE- oi.cals as saying:

 The most natural suppositiOn would be thnt the instinct amounts tO ten dency to push against the pressure of the water. but experiments have shown that it is not the sense of touch, but the sense Of sight that plays the important part The instinct of the brook fish is not to swim against the current but to keep near the same scenery" on the banks or bottom Of the stream.
 The experiments that proved this were performed some years ago by Professor E. ?. Lyon. He put some little fish into a bottle filled with wa ter and cOrked the bottle, which he then placed in an aquarium. whose sides had seaweed upon them. When he moved the bottle along by the wall all the fish crowded to the hinder end of the bottle. Of course there was no current in the bottle. The fish were trying to keep alongside that part of the seaweed covered wall that was op- posite them before the bottle wtS moved.
 In another experiment the professor reversed the conditions He made a wooden box with wire netting at each end. It's bottom he covered with sand and it's inner sides with seaweed. Then be put the fish into this box and plae- ed it in a stream, AS long as the boz vas Kept still the fish beaded against the current but as soon as the box vns allowed to float away in tho stream the 6sh inside it swan in any direction.
