! curious and Complex Is the Tongue OF
the Butterfly.
OF all the marvels il which the
world of insect life is so hich none is
more curious and remarkable than the
tongue Of the butterfly.
This is always Of great length.
When not in use it is coiled like a
watch spring in a fiat spiral close to
the head. But when the butterfly Wis

tongue is uncoiIed. the tHD inserted
deep in the heart Of the flower and the
juices sucked up.
The butterfys tongue really consists
of two tubes. Each Of these has
concave inner face, whose edges in
terlock one with the other, so as to
form Il third or central tube.
In butterflies we have the highest
development of the insect race. so far
as beauty is concerned. In other re-
spects, however, they do not hold so
high a place. They are outranked in
intelligence by ants, bees and wasps
and in perfection Of external parts and
mechanical excellence Of the joints by
beetles.
The colors and patterns on the wings
which make butterflies so beautiful are
due to the arrangements Of innumera-
BILE scales that can be distinguished
only with a powerful microscope. In
some cases these scales are themselves
colored, but often the effect Of color is
only optical, due to the reflection OF
light from the delicate ridges on each

ALLIES NOT ANXIOUS
FOR PEACE JUST NOW
Entente Capital Reflect Germany's At
titude on This Side OF War-BritiSh
and French Troops Retiring

London, Dec 9.-The speech in the
reichstag of the imperial chancellor,
Dr. Won Bethmann-HoIlweg reviewing
the military, political and economic
progress of events, and his reply to a
Socialist Interpolation declining to in
itiate peace negotiations, were the feat
ures of the days news throughout
Europe.
Following closely Premier Asquith S
somewhat similar reply to a question
in the house of commons by Philip
Snowden, Socialist, the chancellor
speech has completely dashed any
hopes the peace advocates may have
held on any early termination of the
war. 1t caused no surprise, however,
to the great bulk of the people here,
who, like the governments, believe in
the ultimate victory Of the entente al
lies and express the determination to
continue to fight until victory is at
tained.
AS far as the entente allied coun-
tries are concerned, seemingly the only
change desired is one which would in
sure more vigorous prosecution Of
the war, but this, like peace, will have
to await events, for the whole cam
:-.aign is entering a new phase.
Having arrived too late to prevent
invasion of Servia, the British and
French forces in the southeastern part
of servia are retiring before the on
slaughts of the Bulgarians, who, sup
ported by German artillery and in
fantry, have been attacking both the
British and the French, compelling
them to give up advanced positions.
According to reports from Saloniki
the retirement is being carried out
in an orderly manner, but how far it
is to continue is matter Of muih
speculation opinion IS dlVloe0 as 10
whether it would be better to abandon
4 she entire expedition or retain Saloniki
as base. The litter alternative would,
lit is believed, further endanger the re-
Zaations of the entente allies with
&7reece, which even now are far from
satisfactory. and be an inGucement 20
Gne central powers to follow the en-
tente forces across the Greek frontier.
Besides the battles in the Balkans
the British are watching with deep in
terest the operations in Mesopotamia,
where a fight is taking place for Kut-
el-Amara, and in Arabia, the Turks
in the latter region having commenced
another advance on Alden. AS Alden

fsent aboard party and took part of
the ships provisions. This news came
I In consular dispatch from Algiers
and was the first official word Of the
safety of the Petrolite which was not
greatly damaged by the shelling, and
proceeded to Algiers with one man
slightly injured.
So far as the Petrolite incident is
concerned there probably will be no
action BY the state department until
more reports are received showing the
exact circumstances under which the
vessel was attacked. If the tanker was
shelled while trying to escape in dis
regard of warnings there would be no
Pcomplaint on that score. When she
did not stop and submit to search,
however, in the view Of officials here,
the submarine commander on finding
her neutral ship, bound on legitimate
business, had no right to seize her
property.
Warships in the past, when in dire
need of food for their crews, often
held up merchantmen without regard
to their nationality and carried of
what they wanted, giving receipts to
assure ultimate payment for what was
taken. Under such circumstances, it
is said, the governments concerned
have not been inclined to regard the
proceedings as a serious breech OF
their rights, provided a merchantmen
was not left without supplies to make
her voyage.
Seizure of supplies from neutral
vessel by a submarine raises new
and interesting point in international
law. 1t is pointed out that if this
practice became general, belligerent
submarines preying upon an enemy's
commerce would be practically unlim-
tied in their radius of action and al
most wholly independent of base of
supplies.

Washington, Dec. 10.-Diplomatic
relations with Austria are in grave
danger of being broken off over the
sinking of the Italian liner Ancona
with the loss of American lives. All
officers here continue to maintain 81
lence, but through the veil which has
been drawn about the situation is seen
a crisis just as grave as that which
attended the submarine negotiations
with Germany.
The question of continuing diplo-
matte relations may be said to depend
upon satisfactory reply to Secretary
Lansing's note, which now probably is
before the Vienna foreign office, de-
manding disavowal of the sinking
of the Ancona, reparation for the lives
lost and assurances that passenger
ships shall not be attacked without
warning or an opportunity for nom
combatants to take places of safety.
The situation tonight is tense and
fraught with possibilities. 1t is COM
pared to the last days of the Arabic
negotiations with Germany when prob
ably no one but President Wilson him

that the communication, cabled last
Tuesday, must have been delivered be-
fore this and a reply is anxiously
awaited.

up the rates Of wages and the costs of
materials that for the first time in
sixty years the price of ships from
British shipyards is virtually equal to
the price in the United States.
Some foreign merchants, whose ma
tional policies have compelled them
to depend upon British or German
yards for ships, are now making in
quiries in America
In the vivid light of this great Euro
pean war the American people are
being taught the impressive lesson that
great and prosperous ocean shipyards
are indispensable, not only to their
commercial independence. but to their
national security 1t is perfectly safe
to assume that. If those senators of the
United States who voted last August
to admit foreign built ships indiscrimi-
nately to the coastwise trade of the
United States-and thereby to deprive
our shipbuliding industry absolutely of
national protection and encouragement
were given another opportunity, nine
out of ten of them, in the light of this
European war, would reverse their
action and join the two-thirds of the
Senate who voted against such a
suicidal course.
