Chocolate Venus" the statue which
John d. Rockefeller bought and I'M
ported into this country TO place in
the Temple Of Love Inn in his sunk
en- garden at Pocantico Hills Il is
said that Mir. Rockefeller paid S75.-
GOO for the statue in the belief that
it is the genuine work of the Greek
sculptor Praxitiles The statue ls
sometimes known as the Cnidian
Aphrodte II IS said that the statue
vas brought here in 1898 but denied

scum on the ground that It was not
genuine. It lay in storage until 1903,
In 1905 what is said to be the same
statue was exhibited lat the National
Arts Club, when there was a spirited
controversy concerning its genuine
ness,
History relates that the Cnidan
Aphrodlte was destroyed by fire In
Constantinople in the fifth century.
The Venus received her chocolate
color, according to one story from a
bath in concentrated lye, muriatc
acid and javelle water applied by an
artist in 1883 to whiten t. He had
bought the statue cheap because II
had been In fire and was spotted.

A Disguised Dog.

The Brooklyn Eagle tells the story Of
a dog that was very much attached to
the baby of the house. They had great
comfort in each others society except
when the baby's bath was going on.
During this proceeding the baby cried
and screamed and the dog. out of sym
pathy, crOuched in the corner and
moaned. Presently the dog devised
scheme to better things. and when the
baby was bowling. as usual, the dog
appeared with a rattle and shook it
and his head as well-with all his
might. Baby stopped crying in sheer
establishment for a minute. but began
again with extra vigOr, and the dog
dropped the rattle. Disguised. After
that he managed to be out of the house
when it was time for the daily bath.

FORMING Habits.

What boy or girl has not habits" Of
various kinds? Here is a very good
definition of the word. 1t is, Habit is
chain that grows stronger every
day." Bad habits seem to grow
stronger more rapidly than good ones.
Therefore if you want to have good
habits when you are old form them
while you are young and let them be
growing strong all the while you live.
Have you ever heard your friends say,
81 have grown so in the habit Of sleep
ing late that | have to rush to school
every day to prevent myself coming
late?" 1t is just as easy to grow into
the habit of waking up at half past 6
as at half past Z. A little will power
will do the work. When you retire at
night say to yourself, Tomorrow 1
went to get up at $50" In all proba-
bility you will be your own alarm clock
and will wake up on the minute. With
a little practice you will get in the
habit of being early and punctuaL

YOUNG FOLKS COnniH;rrnn
Geography Game.

This is an amusing paStme. A lead
err is chosen, and all the other players
are given pencil and paper. Then the
game begins. The object is to see who
can think of the most geographical
names beginning with given letter IL
a certain time. The leader announces
the letter to be used. For instance, he
says a." whereupon all the players
begin to write as fast as possible geo.
graphical names beginning with "A"
At the end of two minutes, or what
ever time has been decided upon as
the time limit the leader calls time
and the players must all stop writing.
Then the leader passes on to another
initial, which he announces in the same
manner, calling the time limit on this
letter as he did for the first one.
1t is not a good plan to name letters
in alphabetical order, as this gives the
players some advantage. Instead. the
leader should jump from place to place
In the alphabet and thus confuse the
players and throw them off the track.
Usually it is enough to take ten or fif-
teen letters before ending the game.
1t should be announced at the begin
ming that there must be no going back
on the list, but when time is called on
a letter it is finished with, and the
player must not add any more names
to the list which he has written under
it. At the close of the game prize
may be given to the player who has
written the most names.

QUEER LEGACIES TO MAN.

Such as the Furrow In the Upper Lip
and the Appendix.
Run your forefnger around the rim
of each ear. You are almost sure to
find in one of them and quite possibly
in both tiny hard lump.
1t is only a relic of the days when,
innumerable hundreds of centuries ago,
man was only one of the animals of
the wild and had pointed ear, like
VOLTS or dogs. ---.-e---~-~---
What good is the little furrow that
runs down from the nose to the middle
of the upper lip? None. But it, too,
has history. 1t is a legacy from the
time when the human upper lip was in
two parts-a hare lip, like that of the
rat tribe. The split has healed up long
ago, but the new skin is so recent in
the history of the race that hair re-
fuses to grow on that furrow.
When a fly settles on you anywhere
can you serenely twitch that patch of
skin and shake him off? Probably not.
But once these old skin muscles, now
almost dead after centuries Of clothes
wearing, Were as active as those of q
horse. A few-a very few-people can
twitch their ears like dog and do so
instinctively when startled, and cases
do occasionally occur in which the
scalp can be moved at will.
In one very interesting case mention
ed in medical books the man could
hurl books a couple of yards away
simply by twitching the muscles on
the top of his head; but, generally
speaking, our skin muscles are even
more dead nowadays than our ear mus
Giles. We've neglected them. The only
set still in use are those We employ
when we want to raise our eyebrows.
The appendix is another thing we
could do quite well without. 1t is a
relic from old vegetarian days. 1t has
oeen voorhees, ever since mankind start
ed meat eating and is apt to get in the
way.
The large intestine, too, is a thing
we really don't need nowadays. The
many coils of this long tube are, ac-
cording to the doctors, quite unneces-
sary. now mankind has become a flesh
eating animal, and merely provide 4
resting place for germs. Surgeons
have often cut out a few odd coils and
stitched the ends together. We don't
really need to carry great intestine
about with us.
Another thing we don't need much
nowadays is the instinct to walk on
hands and feet together. You think
walking upright the only natural way
for man? It isn't. If ever you have
to make your way along some narrow
plank or some narrow, dizzy mountain
ledge. you will find the old instinct
strong in you.-Philadelphi North
American.

The Butcher EirG.

Among the smaller birds of prey is
one called the butcher bird. which is
with us all year except in the summer.
when it goes farther north to build Il
nest and raise a family. 1t lays four
or five light colored eggs with brown
spots on one end. Its nest is built of
moss. leaves, grass. roots and feathers
and is placed in the fork of a tree.
This bird is not much bigger than a
robin, but it is so fierce that it is as
dangerous as a hawk. 1t is called the
butcher bird because it hangs its prey
on thorns or sticks. just as a butcher
hangs meat on hooks. 1t does this so
it can eat its prey conveniently.

Campfire Girls.

They are not really Indians. of
course, even though they can cook over
campfire without getting smoke in

wouldn't need to tremble for your
scalp, for it would be 10 to 1 shot
that the small woodland maids were
campfire girls. and campfire girls are
every bit as helpful and desirable
young persons as boy scouts. Indeed,
they are the small sisters of the boy
scouts They know all sorts of lore
about outdoors. and they have learned
to love it. Hikes" are Il regular part
of campfire work, work that is as in

The Bow Scouts.

The idea underlying the boy scout
characte building and to teach boys
to do things for themselves. In view
of the growth OF the movement it is
strange that some misconceptions still
exist about it. Its purpose is not to
train soldiers. but to train citizens.
The boys learn woodcraft and camp
craft, but above all they are taught
their duties to others. especially the
duty of service. and they are trained to
perform this duty on their own initia-
tive and to know how to perform it.

ment on the part of his superiors on
several occasions and twice won him
