Historic Conflicts of Wales
and England Give 1t
Significance.

In connection with the visit 10 Amer
lea of the Prince of Wales, the Ma
tional Geographic Society has issued
from its Washington headquarters a
bulletin relating how the British
crown prince acquired that title, adm
also the origin Of his famous insignia

The story OF the title borne by the
heirs to the British throne dates back
to the days Of Llewelyn. the last OF
the Welsh princes when that country
still had a quas!-ihdependent status.

VEN OF SCIENCE PUZZLED
Find 1t Hard to Account for the
Erratic Movements of Deep
Water Fish.

The erratic movements of fish are
constant sources of worry to scien-
lists, who, try as they will, can never
account for the vagaries of these sea-
dwellers. Here Is case in point: In
May, 1870. the fishing schooner Hutch
ings, sailing from Gloucester, Mass.
was under the command of Captain
Kirby, trawling for cod off Nantucket.
A strange fish came up in the nets, Il
large creature covered with yellow
spots. The men caught over two tons
and brought them to land, where they
were found to be an entirely new fam
lily. Scientists named them tile Lsh."
for three years, till 1882, the fish were
caught in huge numbers, then the
bankers" reported that they were no
longer to be seen. The news came that
the sea was covered with dead tile
fish. Six thousand square miles of sea
were almost hidden by the dead bodies.
Authorities said that there must have
been volcanic disturbance or else
some deadly disease had killed off the
fish. In 1915 schooner working in
the sape waters caught the tile fish in
abundance, and to this day the fish
are there in millions.

THIS LIFE MERE PATCHWORK

BY All Things viii Have
Full Completion.

Life at best seems only patchworka
BY the time the artist learns to paint
a picture which is considered worth
while. his hand has become stckyS
nervous or palsied and he cannot paint
the thing in his heart for which, all
his life, he had been preparing. Bt
the time the business man has earned
enough money to keep him in comfort
for the rest of his days he has oftet
lost the capacity to enjoy the fruits of
his labor. When the mother has raised
her boy to manhood her offspring
leaves her for the sake of someone
he loves better, and BY the time the
man learns to really appreciate his
mother she is taken from him. Moth
ing seems ever quite finished, quite
mature, quite as it should be in this
world. Perhaps in the by-and-by on
another planet we shall all find that
every incomplete thought and work
of our lives has been fitted into the
completed temple of life which we

"The man who speeds his motor to

'If the cooling system proves equal
to the extra work, well and good, but
IL anything fails the engine is in dan
ger of ruin. OF course this will not
happen without some preliminary
symptom of trouble. The radiator
will steam slightly at first. but IL this
warning signal Is disregnrded and the
motor is still forced ahead the cylin-
der walls and piston rings will score,
causing loss of compression and pow
or. But this cannot continue long be-
fore the piston seizes and the motor
stalls and cannot be cranked. If this
happens while the engine is being
run at n rapid rate the fly wheel will
be unable to free the piston. The re-
suit will be to twist the crank-shaft
out of true, wreck a few bearings
and crack the crank case.> This is n
