BLUM That Worked.

The whole world loves circus. The
exceptions are SO few that they need
not count. To make bid for atten-
ton is the common method Of forcing
men and women to knowledge that
one Is worth knowing. 1t drives men
to schemes and women to dress ex-
travagance. A man who had been Of
some social consequence in his city
accepted business position in lager
one and made acqualntances by his
ussiduous attendance at the opening
Of new plays. Only to the few did he
CONFESS how Insignificant We're his
sleeping quarters or where he took his
meals. His excellent clothing and
his presence at theaters were taken
as an indication of prosperity that
would provide good home; he was
content to be judged by his appear
ance since it put an end to loneliness.

Aneedots Of the Autocrat.

A southern woman tells about din
ing In Boston once, when next to her
sat homely little old gentleman, who
wanted to know how she passed the
time in the country with her old ia
ther. "Well. we read" what did
you read?" Chiefly The Autocrat of
the Breakfast Table" Don't you
get tired Of it," "Oh, no. When we
get to the end, we simply turn back to
the beginning" The old gentleman
chuckled and made a remark implying
that the "Autocrat" was no great thing
among books, and the lady was rather
surprised at his disparaging air. After
dinner she demanded of her hostess
the name of the unapprcciative old
gentleman, and was told that 1t was
Doctor Holmes.

from oil the wards and rooms ana

Prehistoric Germs.

In these days, when disease mi
crobes are so much discussed. 1t Is
hard to realize that disease germs
have been on this earth for millions
Of years. The fact of their long ex-
istence isn't mere theory, for certain
minute forms discovered in lime
stone formation prove conclusively
that bacteria lived and tlourished in
prehistoric times. These prehistoric
bacteria show many of the character
istics common to our twentieth-cen-
tury germ.

influence Of Rome.

There are many customs which still
proclaim the ancient rule and influ-
ence of Rome that have persisted
through the centuries since the de-
parture of her glory. For instance,
there Is the old Pyrrhic dance, the
robes with bells on sleeves and girdles.
The Roumanians still shout in unison
to prevent Saturn from hearing the
voice of the infant Jupiter; and even
their oxen. proclaim the "glory that
was Rome" in their names, for here
you may see Caesar and Brutus as
yoke fellows, and there Cassius and
Augustus.

OCEAN A|RPLANE
LINE PREDICTED
Expert Says Passengers
Can Go From New York
To London in 2Davs.

London. Eng. June 2S.-A transat-
lantic line of airplanes carrying pas
sengers between New York and Lon
don in two days, at a total cost of
about 81 a mile was predicted by G.
Holt Thomas in an address which he
delivered before the Aeronautical So
ciety Of Great Britain.
To complete the rosy forecast
prophetic films were displayed show
ing the departure and voyage of a
transatlantic airplane and also the
dropping of mail pouches at postal air
stations between London and the
north of England
To Paris and Return in Day.
Mr. Thomas. who has had large ex-
perience in flying and building air
craft, said that airplane mail services
could be established commercially. a
special airplane will enable the bust
ness man to leave London in the
morning, transact his business in
Paris, and be home to dinner again. -
he said 1t will take him to Bagdad
IN day and a half or New York in
two days"
The cost from London to Paris. he
added, would be just over 81 per mile
running one machine each way and
with four machines it would work out
At 45 cents. A profitable charge for
passengers would be SIS. a mail let
ter of one ounce could be profitably
carried for one cent and a three
pound parcel for rs cents. 4 passen-
ger could go from London to Far
settles in eight hours instead Of %,
at a cost of $50 or mails could be car
ried for two cents an ounce
COnstantInOpIe in 20 Hours
Constantinople could be reached in
20 hours for S125 a passenger and
mails at five cents an ounce. Dealing
with farther distances he pictured
Ceylon as being only two and three
quarter days from London, Toxic four
and half days. Sydney. five days.
Capetown, three and a half days and
Vancouver three days.
Lord Cowdray, the chairman Of the
meeting. said he believed Mr.. Thorn
ass estimate of costs to be near the
mark and that it would not exceed 81
per mile. In his opinion commercial
flying was bound to come and come
quickly and il would not require gov
