Safety Net" Worked Well.

The thrilling rescue of a four-year-
old boy occurred in Brooklyn a short
time ago. The boy had his tOnsilS
and adenOids removed and was on the
third floor Of a hospital. The nurse
left the ward for three minutes and
when she returned she missed the
child. The little patient had climbed
to one of the windows, squeezed
through the bars and was hanging
outside The flutter of the childs
nightie attracted the attention of pass
ersby. Two young men stripped off
their coats, knOtted them together by
the sleeves, and stretched them out
as a makeshift saftey net. A moment
later the boys grasp on the window
ledge relaxed and he went hurting
down. But the safety net proved eff
fective and he dropped into it unin-
jured.

SW0RE BY PEARY
Arctic Explorer Extremely Popu-
lar With Men.
Expedition to the Pole Loud
in His Praise.

April 6 already stands in history
as an epOchal anniversary of
The victory which crowned a battle of
nearly four centuries when, Il years
ago, Robert Z. Peary mailed" the
Stars and Stripes to the North pole.
In connection with this anniversary
the National Geographic society has
issued from its Washington head
quarters a bulletin concerning the hui
man qualities of the great explorer,
based on a communication to the So
ciety by Donald B. Macmillan, lieu
tenant on Peary'S successful polar eX-
petition.
The National Geographic society
had a part in supporting Admiral
Peary's expedition, and awarded him
its special gold medal. Quoting Mr..
Macmillan the bulletin says:
Ever kind and thoughtful and con-
siderate of his young and ineXperi-
enced men, he treated them as a
father would treat his sons. He helped
us lash and pack our sledges, untangled
and repaired our frozen and knOtted
traces.
when struggling along far in the
rear, with refractory dogs and heavy
loads, an Eskimo would often be de-
tailed to relieve us of a part of our
load and pilot US safely across an
open lead, and if we arrived with

Has Own Idea of "Proqress."

A different idea of progress from
that usually held is given by A. Ed
ward Newton, who, in the Atlantic
Monthly, writes: II was dining once
in London, quite informally, with a
great electrical engineer, a very trig
maid in attendance. On the table near
my hosts right hand was a small block
of white marble and tiny silver NAL
let. When he wanted the maid he
struck the marble a resOunding blow.

Reasonable Ambition.

When Governor Stephens of Cal
fOrnia was mayor of Los Angeles there
was one man who, even more than
others, harassed the life out of him
in regard to getting some kind of a
job. Finally Stephens got the fellow
placed doing some outdoor work in
the public service department. The
man was highly appreciative, and
always tipped his hat to the mayor
thereafter.
1t wasn't more than two months I'M
til the fellow again showed up at the
mayors office. This time he said he
wanted to be promoted.
"PrOmoted?" said Stephens. 'Why,
man, you want to get ahead too rapid
ly. Think what a short time you've
been at your present job. Such vault
ing ambitions as yours will make you
unhappy and discontinued as you go
through life. What sort of job have
you got your eye on, anyhowT
"WeII," said the caller seriously

Sounds That Bounce.

Like light, sound is formed by vi
bration or moving of the atmosphere.
These sound waves travel through the
air precisely as water waves travel
through the sea, or as ripples are
formed when one casts a pebble into
pond. Ripples of water are thrown
back when they reach the edge of the
pond, but owing to the loss of momen-
tum the return wave is usually less
noticeable than the original one. The
air, however, being more resilient than
water, bounces back when one of the
sound waves strikes an obstruction,
and eventually returns to its original
source-the force of the return being
largely dependent upon the nature of
the obstruction and the atmospheric
conditions prevailing at the time. 1t
is this return of the sound waves that
we call an echo.

THE SHADOW FOLK OF TAHITI
Pretty Legend Full of the Peculiar Ro-
nance of the Fascinating
South Seas

We were in the land of the Little
People of the Shadows. We had been
told that we must offer them all our
posse sSionS, but that they would take
for themselves only the shadows of
the things they wanted. So we put
slender sticks on the ground. all along
the open side of our room. between the
high tree-rOOJs, and hung on them
our tapa garments. our necklaces and
ornaments of feathers and of pearl
and of green jade-Stone. One precious
thing we could not offer them, and
that was the bracelet of irideScent
pearl-shell set with cats eyes of the
sea. 1t had been put on my sweet
hearts arm when she was a little girl,
and now she could not take it off.
We hoped the Little People of the
Shadows would understand that the
bracelet also would have been offered
them if it had been possible. Ifeared

HAVE EASY DIVORCE CODE
No Need for Samoans to Take Trip to
Native Reno to Have the
Knot United.

Divorce cases, which came up often
in Tutuila, especially put to the test
nv powers of recOnciling old and new;
for. though desertion for one year is
sufficient reason for divorce under the
Samoan code, actual divorce without
legal divorce is a custom of the cOun-
try. Samoan men again and again
sent their legal wives home and took
younger women into their nuts. Tn
der such conditions the man and MS
new mate were brought into court
Occasionally the court persuaded the
man to send for his old wife, and the
girl in the case returned to her TAM
lily. She was usually soon well mar

mOned couple refused to be separated,
paid their fine, went back to their old
ways and were summoned again ana
paid another fine.

To Sell Honey nDirect.n

A novel idea and an innovation
heretofore unheard of in the mercan-
tile world will be introduced this sea-
son by an Iowa firm, proprietOrs of a
general store In connection with
their grocery department, they will
conduct a modern apiary in the vacant
rooms over their store.
The upper story of their building
is infested with bees and recently the
merchants removed several hundred
pounds of honey from within the up
per walls. There were no freight
charges, overhead expense or middle
mans commission, and they are now
installing several double decked hives
upstairs for the accommodation of their
benefactOrS.
The honey will be sold from the
hive direct to the consumer.

that loss of one sense quickenS the

same truth which has given rise to

But whatever of scientific fact is
behind these things, it is certain from
practical experience that the blind
are excellent piano tuners. The New
York Association for the Blind re-
ports that many blind men coming
under its care have become extremely
proficient tuners, and that the number
has grown to such an extent that the
Blind Tuners Guild of New York has
been chartered, and monthly meet

the guild shows that the amount of

bark from the coast valleys of

fact that the only known supply of

Owing to the depredatiOns of Japan

Old Almond Trees Bear Well.

That age is one of the assets of an
almond orchard in point of bearing is
claimed by Edward Wyckoff, pioneer
resident of the Woodland district, who
has on display in the board of trade
rooms limbs from almond trees on his
place planted in 1857 by his brother,
David WyckOff, former sheriff of YOlO
county, writes a Woodland (Calif.)
correspondent. Though GA years of age,
the orchard is the best bearing in the
valley and the trees are strong and
virile. Records of the production are
being kept for grandchildren that they
may make some comparisons of crops
when the orchard reaches the century
mark.

Gem Natural Thermometer.

1t was a wonderful sapphire, so it
is said, that led the celebrated DR..
Sorby to the discovery of the nature
of the liquid sometimes found en-
closed in the cavities of crystals. The
gem in question contained a tube
shaped cavity a quarter of an inch
long and an eighteenth of an inch in
diameter. which was so regular in its
bore that it served by means of the
liquid partially filling it, for a Their
mOmeter. The contained liquid half
filed the bore at 80 degrees Fahren-
heit. and completely filled it at so
degrees. A study of the rate of ex-
pansion of the liquid led to the con-
clusion that it must be carbonic acid.

now costs $12 to SIS in court charges
to settle the smallest civil claim, but
under the proposed system the ex-

the plaintiff simply making his state
