You might have someone worse to
advise you," she famed out, remember
Scott, you're anything but practical"
Did you think that out yourself, or
Is your mother responsible for that too?"
Scott's words were bitter. but Ruth
had provoked him beyond endurance
and he hardly knew what he was saying.
You're not in a position to resent
anyone's advice in that respect" Ruth
said, turning from her dressing table
to meet his eyes. sometimes l can't
understand you at all, Scott Raymond
You simply seem to have no ambition
and those friends Of yours foster that
attitude in you.'
And you women are all the same
aren't you? Money is the only thing
worth fighting for in your estimation
l wonder you didn't marry someone who
had plenty"

PLANNING STUDY OF NATURE
Take Time and Get Real Pleasure Of
the Beauty About You, 10 Advice
Of Writer.

II one approaches 1t in the right
spirit, the study Of the glorious beauty
of brook in any one point in its
course Is as interesting as are the an
tics Of squirrel, the finding Of n
wOOdchuck on n woodside or mother
robin with her young in the nest, and
1t is more convenient, says Edward f.
Bigelow In Boys Life. You may take
plenty Of time in the study Of a brook.
There are eyes that do not see, and
real seeing is accomplished only by
eye training.
Take. for example, the bank Of a
brook. Sit on the rock that juts out
| into the stream. With notebook and
pencil make n list Of the things that
may be observed. Make sketch or a
photograph. Return to the place once
week for n year and note the changes.
II that single section Of natural seem
cry were well studied, It would sound
the keynote to the melody Of all the
seasons and all the seasons scenes.
A pool contains wealth Of wonders.
Well do remember sitting for an hour
at time with my bare feet overhang-
ing bowlder on the bank of the brook.
as I gaZed ever at the marvellous
drama going on above the clear sandy
bottom Of that streamlet. Not the
least fascinating object was a noble
trout of brilliant. sparkling beauty, as
1t glided gracefully and majestically
through the crystalline water. 1t is
only after the real nature lover has
learned to sit like stOical Indian that
he can reach and touch the real heart
of brook pool.

TREASURES LOST FOR EVER
Whole World Suffered When Famous
Library at Alexandria. Egypt, Was
Destroyed by Fire.

War caused the destruction of the
famous library ut Alexandria, In Egypt.
which In the days of the Ptolemies was
the largest In the world, containing
10000 volumes. Nevertheless, the ca
tastrophe was directly due to an ncci-
dent, flames spreading to the shore
when Caesar set fire to an enemy fleet
in the harbor.
Thus were forever lost vast treas
ures Of the literature of antiquity. The
books were rolls of papyrus, which at
that period was largely exported from
Egypt, being used everywhere to write
upon. Parchment was not employed
for the purpose until about three CEN
turtles later.
Papyrus was made from the inner
rind Of kind Of reed that grew pro-
fusely Gas 1t does today in shallow
waters in Egypt. The material was cut
lengthwise in thin strips, which were
laid parallel and close together. Across
these at right angles other strips were
placed, thus f, sming sheet. which.
sprinkled with water. pressed and
dried, gave n fair surface for ink-the
latter being composed Of lampblack
and gum.
The strips were called 'bibloi"-from
which we get word for book and
Bible. But pnpyrns was poor stuff to
write on, the chief trouble with it be-
ing that 1t was very perishable. becom-
ing after while like so much dead
leaves. Thus when nowadays papy-
rus scroll is found, 1t has to be handled
with utmost care lest 1t fall to dust.
The books were in continuous strips,
sometimes as much as $50 feet long.
Many thousands Of papyrus books
have been dug out of the ruins Of Her
culaneum though only very small
part Of that city has been excavated.
owing to the fact that 1t was buried be-
meath molten lava, whereas Pompeil
overwhelmed by the same volcanic
eruption) was covered merely with
ashes.

How English Grows.

II English speaking people Of today
do not talk more than their ancestors
1t is not for lack Of a vastly increased
number Of words in which to convey
their thoughts. The first English die
tionary, published three centuries ago,
contained $3.50 words; the most recent
more than 100000. Samuel Johnson's
famous compilation, which appeared
in 1855, listed $4,000 and was consid-
cred marvel of erudition. but 1t was
far exceeded by Noah Webster's Amer
lean dictionary, first published In 1928,
which included 10000 words.
1t Is estimated that the English Ian
guage, which is. spoken by more peo-
pie than any other European tongue,
is now growing Mt the rate of 5000
words year. for, besides slang and
technical terms, 1t borrows from all
tongues. The war alone will undoubt-
edly add many thousands. The first
of the worlds dictionaries was, Of
course, a Chinese work, and was per-
fected about 100 b. c. by Pa-out-she.

Bacon and Beef.

American bacon will be used to
stretch out British beef supplies. The
scheme Of rationing, which already Is
in operation In London and the sur
rounding countries. is to be extended
at once, and after this only two of the
four weekly coupons will be available
for the purchase of butchers meat.
The object is to diminish the demand
for home grown cattle during the
months when these can be fattened on
grass. The new order limits the pur-
chase of beef, mutton and pork to 20
cents head weekly, but does not af-
feet diners in restaurants and hotels,
who are permitted to exchange cou-
pons for meat meals.
Children over six will be entitled
after April IA to a full adult ration
of meat. All coupons are cashable for
bacon and poultry.

Why rorpedoed Ships Sink.

The committee appointed by the
Council of the Institution of Naval Ar
clitecture to inquire into the effects Of
explosions of mines and torpedoes
upon the structure of merchant ships
find that there are three principal
causes of loss. First, the existence of
a forward reserve bunker partitiOned
OF from the cargo hold by a non-wa-
tertight bulkhead. A second cause OF
loss is the failure to close the water
tight door in the engine room bulk
head leading to the shaft tunnel. A
third danger lies in the main drain
pipes, leading from the bilge pumps to
the different compartments, and pass
ing through all watertight bulkheads,
which are generally fractured in tor
pedoed compartments. There should
be nOn-return valves on the end OF
these pipes. The committee recon-
mends that bulkheuds should be pro-
tected as far as possible from flying
splinters, ut least temporarily, by using
timber or other suitable material as q
er-screen.-Scientifc American.

Where Llahtnina struck Thrice.

II seems as If there were no method
in It's selection of objects to strike ;
but. Of course. 1t must follow It's own
laws, even though we mortals may not
know what conductors are best suited
to Its swift course. The popular ex-
preston, lightning never strikes twice
In the same place." does not hold wa
ter. The late President Hill Of Har-
ward used to tell of seeing bolt strike
barn and set 1t on fire, and while the
neighbors were trying to put out the
flames 1t was struck twice again.
There seems to be certain localities
where the current finds ready ut
traction. In the White mountains this
Is belt 200 or 800 feet wide; above
1t and below II few trees are blasted,
but along on this ribbon Of territory
these are hosts Of pines, oaks and
other trees twisted and blackened.
Probably there Is iron In the soil or In
the rock.

Woman Champion Maker Of Flies.

The title of worlds champion arti-
fetal fly maker Is proudly claimed for
Miss Alice Sherwin Coleman Of New
York. who for more than decade has
been making flies for anglers. Some
idea of her reputation among the dis
ciples of Izaak Walton may be gath
cred from the fact that she and her
assistants make 100000 worth of flies
for fishing enthusiasts every year.
Miss Coleman makes 300 different
varieties Of flies regularly summer
and winter, special orders bringing the
number up to !, 800 varieties altogether
for such is Miss Coleman's reputation
that exacting fishermen In the wilds
Of America sometimes catch strange
flies that hover over particular streams
and send them alive In, ventilated
bottle so that she may study and re-
produce them accurately.
