A tiny marine animal which consists
merely Of stomach and a mouth sur
rounded by tentacles and which Is ca
pable. Of turning itself inside out is
called the hydra. Sometimes the n.y.
dra's mouth becomes overstretched
through its taking in too much food,
The animal promptly turns itself in
side out, elects the superfuous food
and then returns to its normal condi-
ton. If it turns itself inside out and
can't get back again it eventually dies.
The hydra is its own physician and
performs miracles of healing. If q
tentacle Is cut of complete animal
will be formed out of it. If the body
Is cut in half and the pieces placed to-
gether they will grow together again;
If not, two entire animals will be form
ed, and any part Of one animal will
grow on to the cut surface Of another.

Roumanian Peasant Diversions.

"Many hands make light work" is a
proverb of the Roumanian peasant
often put into practice. Almost every
night there Is a neighborhood gather
ing like the old fashioned apple cut
ting or apple butter boiling in early
American rural history. The houses
have their turns at these parties, and
there is always a kettle Of cornmeal
mush and baked pumpkin and pota-
toes and popcorn ready for the occa-
sion. All hands join in the evening
program of combing, carding and spin
ming the household supply of wool or
fax, while the neighborhood gossip
passes current among the elders and
occasional words of love or childish
Jest among the more youthful men,
bers of the party.-National Geograph-

Sound Waves.

Science says that the loudness Of
sounds varies inversely as the square
Of the distance. This is merely another
way Of saying that If you walk three
times as far away from the source OF
the sound as you were before its loud
ness viii not be a third what 1t was,
but ninth of what it was, for mine is
the square of three.
On the other hand, the density Of the
medium which conveys sound is very
important. On a frosty night the air
is dense. One consequence of this Is
that an automobile runs better be-
cause the engine gets larger supplies
Of oxygen. Another result is that
sounds are heard more loudly. How
ever, the report OF gun high up in
the mountains is like the sound Of an
exploded firecracker.

Water Pressure.

As early as 164S a Frenchman Of
science named Pascal experimental
with pressures applied to liquids and
discovered the following law: A pres
sure applied to any part of the sur
face of a liquid is transmitted IN
changed in amount In every direction
through the liquid.
perbaps the most familiar applica-
aon of Pascars law is the hydraulic
nress. In that machine pump having
q small piston drives water into large
cylinder and thereby forces upward a
large piston, which congresses what
over is placed between the platform Of
tbe piston and the fixed crossbeam at
tbe top of the press. If the area Of
the larger piston is 100 times that Of
tbo smaller q downward force Of one
nound exerted on the smaller piston
will create an upward force Of 100
mounds upon the larger piston.

Rocking Chairs.

Rocking chairs are an American In
stitution, although they are to be
found today pretty much all over the
civilized world. In England they are
invariably referred to as American
rockers" and indeed this application
is not confined to that country. Here
and there on the continent you VIII
hear Of them in the same category.
Authorities are widely at variance as
to the time and place of the very first
rocker. But that the first one was
turned out more than 200 years ago
there is little room for doubt 1t is
fair to assume that it was the inven-
ton Of a New Englander who loved
his ease. He probably invented it to

Cottonwood Falls, KAMA big tooth
which Is supposed to have come from
the jaw of some mastodon Of prehis-
toric ages, has been unearthed by T. q.
Nichols of this city by men employed
in making a deep cut on Diamond
creek, a mile and half northeast Of
Elmdale. The trench had been sunk
to a depth Of f1fty-three feet and had
passed through an eight foot gravel
strata when the big tooth was found.
A soapstone formation was encounter
ed Just beneath it.
The tooth is well preserved. 1t
weighs over three pounds, measures
a foot and three inches in circumfer-
ence around its base and is three
inches In height from its base to the
points of the tooth. 1t Is oblong In
shape, its width being three and a
half inches. There are six f1anges or
points to the tooth, which extend up
ward in regular pairs The tooth has
two large roots, there being about three
or four inches Of the root intact, but
the lower partS are broken off. It is
believed the tooth belonged to a car
nivorous, or flesh eating, animal be-
cause of the flanges or sharp points.
After finding the tooth another bone
only a few feet away was uncovered
by another workman. 1t Is a large

Father of English Poetry.

The first English bard to attain last
ing fame was Godfrey Chaucer. who
was born In London about 1910. '"The
father of English poetry" was the
son of a vintner named John Chau
Ger and In his youth served the king
as a soldier and was taken prisoner by
the French. The English king paid
$50 for his ransom, which was quite a
high price for poet. Chaucer's most
celebrated work, 1.-The Canterbury
Tales" was written between 1873 and
400. 1t consists of a series of tales
supposed to have been told by a COM
pany of pilgrims to the shrine of st.
Thomas Beckett at Canterbury, and
in its pages we get such pictures Of
English life and ways Of thought as
are found nowhere else.

the other day, his skull was fractured
and other severe wounds, seemingly
sufficient to cause death, were sus-

The fathers attention was called to
the child by the frantic barking Of the

found that the dog was guarding the
insensible form of the little boy from
a bunch Of horses in the pasture where
the little fellow had wandered in his
play.
The child's forehead was crushed.
the nose broken and the eye laid open
by the flesh being all torn from 1t. AS
he was still alive he was rushed to a
hospital with all possible speed. The
surgeon performed very delicate OPP

position and sewing the torn skin
around the eye back into place, and at

complete recovery.
That he was not instantly killed Is
probably due to the fact that the
horses hoof struck a glancing blow,
and that he lives at all is because there
was a skillful surgeon available.
