torpedo struck the vessel a vital blow

she plowed forward some distance,
smashing the life boat davits as she
did so, and making the launching of

"a trashy little trinl1et," which, she
explained, looked so cheap and tawdry
that she had given It to her daughter

SQUIRTING AT THE STARS.
II Helps the Astronomer In Calculating
Their Distances.

II Helps the Astronomer In Calculating
Their Distances.
While lecturing recently to an audi
ence of children at the Royal institu-
ton, London, Professor ii. II. Turner
explained how astronomers measure the
distances Of the sun, moon and stars.
The importance of a squint was ex-
planned with the aid of a match and n
cigar. Putting the cigar in his mouth
and lighting the match, he told them it
was by squirting that he judged the
distance at which to hold it.
Then, taking another cigar, which
was about twelve inches in length, he
explained how in that case it was not
necessary to squint so much, as the
point Of distance to be measured by the
eyes was further away.
This was done to illustrate the fact
that, Just as the brain calculates the
distances Of things seen by means OF
the angle of the squirt, so astronomers
tell the distance Of the stars by reckon
ing the amount Of "squint'' involved
when looking at them.
Two telescopes are placed apart at an
exactly measured distance. The astron-
omer then looks through the two tel
escapes at the Same time and, having
got them to the angle at which he can
see the particular star, just reckons up
the amount of squirt and reels it off

FAME or CAPE COD.
It is Many sided and Fairly Eelipses
Poor Cape Ann.

FOOf Tape ann
Cape Cod, aside from its shape, has
a name to conjure with. What more
appropriate? Cod is the palladium OF
our lii critics. We have made unto our
selves a craven image thereof and
have hung the same in our statehouse
as a memorial forever. Our senior
senator and the various congressman
from down Essex way never let the
sacred fish go out Of their thoughts.
Indeed, Cape Ann is just as anxious
over the cod as the other cape is and
probably wishes 1t had a similar
chance at the name. The name Of
Cape Ann doesn't mean anything now,
whatever it meant to the flattering
colonists who first wished the then
monarch's name on it.
Cape Ann doesn't look Ike a human
foot. In fact, it doesn't look like much
of anything but Cape Ann. But Cape
Cod, with its sands, its bars, its long
tongues and splits, is distinctive. Peo-
pie try to swim to it. A certain kind
of aristocracy is named for 1t. It's

presented to the husband and wife, but
instead of sharing it between them
they rejected it. Then, instead of pray

which the wife renowned the worship

The Lilies.

Two thousand years ago 1t was sup
posed that water lilies closed their
flowers at night and retreated far IN
der water TO emerge again at sunrise
This was Pliny's view. and it was not
impeached until the English botanist
John Ray in 1858 first doubted its We
racity. The great lily Of Zanzibar, one
of the grandest of the lily family, opens
its flowers, ten inches wide, between
II in the morning and In the after
noon. They are OF the richest royal
blue, with from 100 to 200 golden sta
mems in the center. and they remain
open four or five days. 1t is not gener-
ally known that there are lilies that
have nocturnal habits-night boomers
as well as day boomers. They are very
punctual timekeepers. too, opening and
closing with commendabIe regularity.
