Suction Plates on nata.

Certain bats appear to have found
their hooklike thumbs and hind feet
insufficient for suspension and have
made use Of the suction principle for
this purpose. This mode of suspen.
sion has been developed Independently
In two distinct bats, one a native Of
Brazil and the other of Madagascar.
In the Brazilian species the suckers
take the form of stalked discs attach
ed to the palms of the thumbs and the
soles Of the feet. The suckers of the
Malagasy species are horseshoe like.
By means of the suckers these bats
are able to ascend vertical surfaces.
Very curious 1t is to note the similar
ity between the suckers Of these bats
and those on he arms Of the cutie
fishes.

HEAKTs OF THE WORLD.

"TIear3s of the World" was eighteen
 m onths in the making.
 The production is not in any sense
 a war play, but q love story of the great war, with the conflict serving as tho grim background.
 Tho battle scenes were taken on the battlofelds of Franco by permissioh and with the assistance of the British and French governments. MT. Griffith and many of his prin- clpal players, including Lillian and Dorothy Gish and Mrs. C4ish, mother of the two girls; Robert Harron and George A. SieEmann, were under ac-, tua! h0r1baTdnont three times, on one , occasion for a period covering four hours.
 Mr. Griffith had to wear a steel helmet to protect him from shrapnel and gas mask to protect his lungs during the taking of many of the stir ring scenes Many of the most strik- ing scenes in the film owe their effects 5o the remarks ble courage of MT. ] Griffith and his intrepid cameramn, 1 Billy Bitzer, who was with him 1 under fire hundreds of times. Neither ] MT. Griffith nor any of his company l received injuries other than a slight 1 wound in MT. Griffith's arm from fly i ing ahrapnel
 l David Lloyd George, Prime Minister l of England, received MT. Griffith in i private audience in the British cabinet rooms in Downing street. London. Up on Mir. Grif1th's depa rture, Lloyd George said God speed you in your great work and grant that you may accomplish your desires" Tn the pro logue of the story of Hearts of the World" Lloyd George is seen shaking hands with MT Griffith prior to the latter's departure for the Fench lines. More than 10000 feet of film were taken although only 12,000 feet are used In the production.
 David Wark Griffith was the first American to set foot iy1 the front line 1 trenches. This was, O. course, before 1 the United States entered the war. There is no papier mache scenery, nor any artificial scenery of any kind used in the production; no studio props" no supernumeraries, no
 flakes or artificialities whatsoever throughout the entire film.

 "Oh, am disgracefuuy healthy" I assured him lightly. When did you get back?''

 For a long, helpless moment I stood, utterly dumbfoundsd. Then my anger began to rise against Maj Grantland despite all the wonderful memories l had of his chivalry and kindness.
 Why should he think that he must guard me so carefully against a sud den recognition of him? Did he imagine that my romantic interest in him had been so strong that an un- expected meeting with him would upset me, draw critical eyes toward me?
 My cheeks burned hotly in humtlia- tion at the thought, and another, the fear that something in my own at titude toward him during our brief meIodramatc association should have led him to this exaggerated precau- ! ton.
 I dared not wait long to answer him, however. Something I must say, and that quickly.

 The persihago was utterly un- worthy of me, and of the gallant gentleman to whom it was addressed. I acknowledged that to myself even as the words left my lips, but a per verse spirit seemed to urge me on.
 But Maj. Grantland paid no atten- ton to either tone or words same for the information that I was to serve on the reception committee.
