TOO MUCH FOR PROFESSORS
Boyish Nerves Gave Way When Sub
Ject on Dissectino Table Gave
Voice to Moan.

Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of
the telephone. was busy boy. His
fertile brain was seeking expression
long before short trousers were aban-
doned, and one OF the outlets was the
formation of club among his boy
friends which he dubbed Society for
the Promotion Of the Fine Arts" and
in which every member gravely called
himself, and all the others. "profes-
sOr." Bell decided to elect himself
to the chair OF anatomy, and cared
not at all that surgery was not gen.
orally included In the fine arts. On
the night the club met at his house he
startled the members by appearing in
an apron. and with a long butcher
knife in his hand. He explained he
had secured the body of small pig
and intended to 'dissect" II.
The boys, somewhat pale, gathered
around the rigid corpse as Bell,
drawing a long breath. placed the
point against the pigs upturned
stomach and pushed. The knife
remained rigid for moment, and
then disappeared into the pig with
rush. while from the snout came
long. low moan. There was mad
rush for the door, and It was led by
the anatomist. The society died that
night. Investigation by older heads
showed the noise was merely re-
lease OF air pent up In the animals
interior.

Why Clear Nights Are Colder.

A clear, bright starlight night in
winter Is always much colder than a
cloudy one. The reason for this is
that the heat OF the earth is always
thrown off more quickly when there
is nothing to intercept 1t. Clouds
act as a kind Of blanket, and In pre-
venting the earth's heat from escap-
ing, tend to keep the atmosphere
warm.
