FIND EELs' BREEDING PLACE
Why the Discovery 10 censIdered Of importance to the People Of
 European Countries.


 There has always been a mystery about the cells. No one knew just where they came from.
 It Is said to have been solved by Danish scientists who discovered by a deep-sea exposition that cells leaving northwest Europe go to place near the West Indies, where conditions for the development of their larvae are favorable. The larvae afterward make their way back to the places from which their parents started on the European coasts. This discovery Is not only of geographical interest, but will also yield very practical results.
 The supply of cells in the breeding places Is said to be inexhaustlble and there will be an unlimited supply of eel food for European countries. Eels only undertake the journey from and back to the breeding place once in their lives.

New lamps Wan MInere,

The standard type of miners lamp has been improved by an Austrian mining engineer so that 1t acts as an lnfallible detector of the presence of infiammable gases in the atmosphere and gives warning by emitting a loud singing note. The action of the de- vice is dependent upon the fact that 6 gas flame, inclosed within a tube, both ends of which are open, will "flutter'' and emit high-pitched note If the gas is fed In too great quantities. The feed in the new lamp is so regulated that the supply of gas is held just be. low the point at which singing would occur. Should the atmosphere sud denly become charged with infainma- ble gases. these will enter the tube of the lamp and, burning, cause the flame to fiutter and sing.-POpular Methau- ics Magazine.

Why They Are Called Trunks.

Why are travelling boxes called trunksf
 Because in the days of William the Conaueror boxes for carrying money and valuables were made in very primitive fashion, the lids being simply half the trunk of a tree hollowed out {; hence the name. In an old Kentish church in England there Is to be seen such a trunk, which is said 10 be the one in which the Conqueror kept the money with which he paid his soldiers.

How eutter,y's Wing Photoorapb.

When butterfiy's wing Is laid for a considerable length of time uIon a photographic plate, in dark room, a clear image of the wing makes It's appearance upon the plate when the latter is developed. In general the images are of the positive char,lcter, the dark parts of the wing coming out most strongly, while white portions make no impression at all upon the plate. It Is the scales of the wing which exert the photographic lnflu- ence. since when these are removed the wing fails to record itself upon the plate. The removed scales, however, are found to register on a plate.

Why Plano Should Be Kept Tuned.

Pianists insist on having their piano tuned before performance. This Is necessary to insure perfect tone. It Is agreed that, in order to obtain satis- factory results and at the same time preserve the tone quality and keep the action in perfect working order, it is necessary to have the home plano tuned at least twice year. Pianos receiving such attention are always In fairly good condition, while those re. ceiving irregular attention are never In condition. All other stringed instru- ments require more or less tuning every time they are used, then why should a piano be neglected?

CAM YD'SEFS, CAM

Snowflake can boast CD of some thing that no other town of similar size can-the absence of sidewalks. Barring the walks in front of the bus mess houses, there is not sidewalk, board or otherwise, on any street in the town, except packed-dirt ones. But there is only about one month during the year that the walks are muddy enough to be disagreeable.-- Snowflake Herald.
 Guess the editor of The Herald is not very well acquainted with St. Johns. Though considerably larger than Snowflake, St. Johns can do some boasting CD of the absence of side walks-and that aih't all: St. Johns

Why Persons Sich.

Because an interval of several sec onds, during which the walls of the chest remain rigid and cause oxygen starvation, always follows moments of mental disquietude; when nature de- mands' her supply of oxygen the deep inhalation occurs, the expiration after which we call sigh.

Why Called "cardlnaI virtues."


 The chief virtues of the ancients as far back as Socrates were justice, pru. dence, temperance and fortitude.
 They were called cardinal virtues because all other human virtues de pended upon their existence-turned or hinged on them. The word cardi. nal, from the Latin "cardo," means a hinge.
 Such an enumeration, however, ia by no means exhaustive. It has often been pointed out that the list omits entirely the fundamental virtue of benevolence. Conscientiousness, cour. age. modesty, sympathy and reverence are other cardinal virtues, but not con- tained in the original roster.--Cleve- land Plain Dealer.

UNABLE TO SEE ONES SELF
Clear Idea Of Just How hs CT She leeks.

No man or woman has any really clear idea how he or she looks. The expression of the face is always changing, and no artist, no camera, can catch this feeting expression. You see yourself by gazing at a mirror When your mind Is busy with the operation In hand you do not think of noticing how you look. When you stand in front of the glass with the deliberate intention of seeing how you lsok, your face bears the imprint of that intention, and you do not see yourself as you are naturally, but as you appear when you have something to think about. You have perhaps as- sumed different expressions as you gage at yourself have tried to laugh in order to see how you look, but 1t Is all unnatural. When you have seen your own photo, have you not been dis appointed? You have usually thought that 1t was not like you. And your relatives have said-"Yes. we have seen you look like that" The camera depicts the sitter just as he Is at the moment the picture is taken, but very seldom can the instrument catch that subtle thing called natural expres- sion," because few persons are natural when seated In front of the camera. When we remember how our thoughts change the expression of our face we can understand that 1t Is not possible for any individual to know how he himself looks-Exchange

probation to a representative of the
 Legion, who is arranging for the youth to enroll in an engineering course under the government provis-
 ions for vocational training of wound ed veterans.
 Endorsement of the American Le- gion's program for relief to disabled, which was adopted by the investigat- ing committee, named by President Harding, was voted at the regular ses- sion of the Maine legislature. A me- morial resolution was passed request ing congress to adopt the Legion's legislative recommendations.
 The Bronx County, N. Y., American Legion will, on Memorial Day, dedi- cate tree to each of the 760 Bronx men and women who made the su- preme sacrifice. Around each of the lindens on Grand Concourse the city of New York will place an iron guard. To this will be affixed a bronze plate, conceived by the Bronx Legion and paid for by it's members.
 Opposition to the proposed emigra- tion of several thousand Mennonites from Canada to Mississippi, which the American Legion has registered, is backed up in resolution passed by the Punxsutawney, Pa., lodge No. 669, International Association of Machin- ists, affiliated with the American Fed eration of Labor, which characterizes the sect as "unpatriotic and a menace to the United States government"

no YOU remember some Of those
~ cool evenings last summer,
either at your mountain bungalow
or seashore cottage, when you sat
bundled up in all the sweaters and
coats that you could lay your hands
on? If you are wise, this year you
will guard against this discomfort.
For instance, you will appreciate a
Perfection Oil Heater which, though
small, will give out a surprising
amount of heat and may be easily
carried from room to room. The
Oil Cook Stoves too will be found
to be of infinite value. These are
of various sizes, having different
numbers of burners and are extreme

other household furnishings which
will add to your summers enjoyment

IN the window of Bargs, Cleaners
and Dyers, l1l3 Chestnut Street,
a pink organdie dress attracted my
attention. 1t had just been cleaned
and looked as fresh and dainty as
new. Organdies, Of course, may be
laundered, but they never retain
their original loveliness, especially
colored ones, which are apt to fade
so that they are almost unwearable.
1t would really be worth your while
to let Exrg's clean many of your
summer clothes-silk sport skirts,
Georgette dresses, tc.-which II
submitted to the washtub will look
old, but which, if cleaned properly
may be worn on many occasions.
Barg's also clean mems clothes very
successfully. Now is the time TO
have the white fannels cleaned and
ready for the infornx country club
dance and other SUNNI functions.
