Even Devilfish Bushes.

The octopus frequently changes in
color, as If it We're a marine chame-
leon. 1t would appear, from recent
studies of this creature, that the col.
ored pigment whereby this change
In color effected is contained In an en-
velope in its skin, in the tissue Of
which are muscular fibers actuated
by nerves. Should these fibers be-
come relaxed, dark pigment appears.
The phenomenon is said to be analo-
gous to blushing. II the octopus is
as wicked as Victor Hugo and other
writer's painted him, he ought to
blush!

HAS NO USE FOR MILLIONS
According TO His Statement, Idle Phi.
losopher Is Not Victim Of
Maria for Money.

II have always looked on money"
said the Idle Philosopher, las being
something akin to the mama which
was given to the children of Israel to
live on in the wilderness. 1t generally
comes TO me, when Ii does come, In
fashion that seems more or less NIL
snculous. / work for it, 1t is true. but
I work for so many things which l
40 not get that am always surprised
when get paid.
But there is another respect in
which 1t resembles mama. In order to
get any real satisfaction out of It
have to use II the same day 1t comes
Ii l keep 1t overnight 1t always in
wolves trouble, and generally disap-
p0intment as well.
Il know that this course is not gen.
orally approved. Other philosophers
teach the wisdom of saving as much
as possible for future lse, and cheer
fully admit that people who can do
that sometimes find advantages In 1t
which miss by my habit.
mot everybody can do it, though.
To hoard uO money requires natural
aptitude or careful training, which,
10 be "erviceable, must begin very
early in life. In fact, it should begin
as soon as a child knows what a cent
Is for. Otherwise much effort liz need
ed to fix the habit.
"Once fixed, however, it sometimes
produces amazing results, but only in
:ase it is progressive, so to say. If
a man continues TO save pennies
through life as he did at the begin
ming he is not likely to go far, but
II he turns his attention to dollars,
then to tens, hundreds, thousands and
millions, progressively, he may even
tually acquire considerable sum.
There are those who consider this
worth doing, but am unable to see
what is gained by putting aside few
million dollars from time to time.
Il can imagine readily enough what
would do with hundred dollars II
l had it, and | could perhaps find a
reasonable use for thoussn nd. Be
yond that it seems foolish to CO."

For the last IL months we on our
side have had the opportunity of see
Ing your navy at work and | am voic-
ing the opinion of the allies when say
that your sailors, no less than your
liant troops, have won our deepest
admiration. The dauntless determine
ton which the United States has dis
played In creating huge trained
body of seamen out of landsmen is
one of the most striking accomplish
ments of the war. Had 1t not been
effectively done one would have
thought It impossible"
