Sun Still a Mystery.

is one reason they are forever talking

WEST ELLSWORTH.

The people of West Ellsworth are
Justly incensed over the rowdyish be-
havior of number Of young men
from Ellsworth, old enough to know

grange hall recently, apparently with
the purpose Of breaking up the
dance. Fireworks were exploded on
the moor, causing damage, and en-
dangering people in the hall. Thev
persisted in this, despite the courte-
Gus protest Of the managers of tho
dance. There were also present
business men and others holdinp
prominent positions in Ellsworth
who, instead Of trying to exert a bet-
ter influence over the roisterous
ones, seemed to enjoy the "fun /"
These dances are being held at West

PLANTS GET OWN MOISTURE
Ingenious Device That viii AssuredIy
Be Welcomed by All Absent
Minded Husbands.

Stay-at-hOme husbands are prone to
forget to water the flowers that adorn
the sitting room, even though specially
charged to do so by absent wives.
They will doubtless welcome a device
just invented by Frenchman M. Pin
son, which enables plants literally to
water themselves and to do so with
efficiency, taking neither too much nor
too little to drink. This device, which
obtained gold medal in France, con-
sists of flower pot of the usual
shape, but having a double wall. The
description runs, according to the Lit
erary Digest:
The space between the two walls
constitutes reservoir Of water. Into
this there extends two to four curved
tubes, according to the shape of the
pot. Each of these tubes contains a
wick. The lower end of the tube dips
into the reservoir of water while the
other end is bent so as to dip beneath
the surface of the soil in the inner
pot. Consequently we really have a
set of siphons which are set in action
by the capillary attraction which
causes the water to rise in the wick.
Thus there Is a gentle but steady flow
of moisture to the plant
In order to adapt the apparatus to
the needs Of any individual plant it i,
only necessary to remove the inner pot
after the end of "a hours and note
whether the outer pot still holds any
water. If so, the plant is oversup-
piled, since the excess of water has
been drawn by gravity to the bottom
of the inner pot and escaped through
not

Shackle for Prisoners.

When it is necessary to take Grimm
ais on long journeys by train con-
slant vigilance is required to prevent
attempts to escape. Now. however,
Popular Mechanics Magazine describes
shackle which should discourage
this quite effectively. 1t consists of
5O-pOund steel ring which fits loosely
around the ankle and separate steel
housing that goes under the foot and
supports the weight of the ring when
the wearer is sitting or standing still.

FOR LOVE, NOT BY PURCHASE
New Attitude Toward Marriage Ia
Seen to Be Awakening Among
the Women Of China.

Closely related with the new home
idea in China is the new idea on mar
riage; that is, individual choice rather
than family choice; ''for love, not by
purchase"
Like the new home this will be a
matter of slow evolution. For in China
the individual is not thought of or
looked upon as an entity; he is but
part of family which is the unit, the
entity and which at all costs must be
preserved and perpetuated. Hence, in
dividual desires must be subsidiary to
the wishes or the benefit of the family
The practice of this principle
throughout the long centuries has in
stilled in children submissiveness to
parents, to family, that is engulfing
of personality, though it is the steel
that gives strength and form to the
structure Of the Chinese nation. The
submissiveness is more than a con-
scious obedience; it is involuntary
surrender.
Consequently, though the new young
woman may advocate the theory Of
personal choice in marriage, only the
most radical really desire it or would
dare wholly to follow it, Emma Sarepta
Yule writes in Scribner's. In matters
touching the soul centers, Inheritance
and tradition are always stronger thar
imported ideas, no matter how forcibIa
their appeal to reason. Miss China
still feels that in the matter of a y
mate the parents Judgment is the
better.

Pelican Ate Golf Ball.

A pelican, one of those huge, long
beaked marine birds that poise them
selves hundred feet above the wa

open dive head foremost into schools
of small fish, finished golf game
in st. Petersburg, Fla, recently zone
down" The Coffee Pot course is along
the shore of Tampa bay and on the
eleventh hole is small brackish lake
forming water hazard which must
be crossed to reach the green.
One member of foursome drove
from the tee and strong wind car
ried the ball into the lake. A pelican
flying lazily above the lake evidently
took the ball bobbing on the surface
for new variety of fish. for he sud-
denly closed his wings, dropped with
terrific speed and gobbled it.
