Wrong Idea About Senses.
Instead of there being only nve
senses, as we usually think, there are
probably as many as IL. -Four dis
tinct Senses, for example, are found
in the skin. There are heat, cold, pain
and pressure. What we usually call
touch is combination Of these sense
qualities.

Jennie was the surprised one this

bobbed her tail, for she had expected
Mr.. Cardinal To quarrel with her.

colors and, besides, II she did wear
red, guess the Cardinal family would
soon come TO an end, for she could be
seen plainly enough by those who wish
TO harm birds and get their eggs"
While Jennie Wren was scolding and
hopping about, a trim little bird flew
TO a twig near Mr. Cardinal, and when
Jennie again stopped for breath Mrs.
Cardinal-for IL was sbe-said In a
very sweet voice: "You are wrong,
Mrs. Wren; my husband is not
ashamed OF me. He loves me very
dearly and there is no bird that has
a husband more devoted in his atten-
tions than my handsome husband"
Again Jennie Wren was surprised,
but she called back as she flew down
to her home: you poor thing; sup

band for my part Id rather have one

ANGELICA

"A NGELICA, name of much more
n substance than the pallid Angelica,
is still one OF the angelic names"
which feminine fancy delights to be-
stow on its girl children. 1t means,
of course. "angelic" and seems difficult
to reconcile with the behavior of some
of the small daughters whom one
finds bearing the name.
Angeles was Greek word meaning
heavenly messenger" hence "angel."
II first became a name In the Byzan-
tium empire when 1t was bestowed
as an epithet upon persons of sur
passing beauty. 1t was applied most
often as a masculine name and there
was Carmelite saint called Angelo,
who established it as baptismal
name. In his honor, the feminine also
became popular and Italian history
records many instances of Its use.
Angelica sprang to fame since II
named the falthless lady OF romance
for whose sake Orlando lost his heart
and his senses. Though she was the
invention Of Boiardo and Ariosto, the
romantic flavor which the story gave
her name brought Angelica to instant
favor. England liked the name and
adopted IT, In France II became
Angelique, and Italy produced the
other forms Of Angiolet;a and Anzil-
leta, though Angelica continued the
reigning favorite.
Angelica's talismanic gem is the
pearl. II guards the purity and sweet
ness OF her, brings her friends, and
much charm. Sunday Is her lucky day
and . her lucky number. The wild
rose is her flower.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"cAN DIDATE"

~ WING TO the ramitications
~ of modern politics and the
alterations in style of ap-
parel. one would about as soon
expect candidate" for a posi-
tion to be entirely candid" as
they would expect him to make
his appearance always dressed
in white. But. according to the
original meaning OF the word, he
should be the one and wear the
otherl
The Roman usage demanded
that all who were openly seek
ing public office should be
dressed in white and this, by de.
grees, led to their designation
as candidate, or ''wearers of
white" derived from the verb
candldare, TO whiten. 1t is from
the same stem that we obtain
the word candid" word EN-
ployed by some of the old Eng
lish authors In its physical
meaning of white" but which
has in ordinary everyday use
been transferred to indicate a
mental quality. a freedom from
bias prejudice or deceit-all of
which might be regarded as dark
spots upon character.
II is In its original sense OF
white" however, rather than
because Of Its connection with
the modern meaning of the word
candid. that we derive our
word candidate. and. to be
strictly in accord with etymol.
ogy and custom. no seeker after
office should appear unless
garbed in clothing Of spotless
dazzling white.

w II Y
ARE BUBBLES ROUND?

A SOAP bubble, TO use as an ex.
~ ample the most familiar kind OF
bubble. is merely a hollow ball
OF water with air inside. The soap,
partially dissolved, forms a very thin
film or skin over the air which Is en-
deavoring to force its way through II.
This air exerts an equal pressure In
all directions and thus forces the soap
film out at an equal distance from the
center OF the compressed air, thus
forming a perfect sphere or ball at
the moment the bubble is first made.
However. after the bubble has been
floating for few moments, the water
drips down toward the bottom of the
ball and collects there In drops. The
weight of these pull the bubble out of
shape-spoil its perfect symmetry
and increase the pressure of the air
inside TO such a degree that 1t breaks
through the film and the bubble bursts

Testing chiId's Musical Ability.

Musical ability in child can be
well judged by testing fve faculties:
The sense of pitch. which Is the abl-
ity to discriminate between higher
and lower tones; the sense of time or
rhythm; the sense of cOnsonance,
which is the ability to tell what Is
more pleasing and what is less pleas
Ing; the sense of intensity; and mu-
sical memory, or the ability to remem-
her a number OF tones from hearing
them once. Those qualifications are
probably in large measure inherited,
for very young children sometimes
have them.-Youths Companion.

VlsIbllity Of the Moon.

The reason for only part OF the
moons disc being visible to the earth
is that the east and west sides be
come alternately visible; this is called
the moons longitudinal libration. The
libration in latitude arises from the
moons axis no, being perpendicular
to her orbit, In consequence Of which
part of her surface round the North

corresponding portion round the South
pole during the other half OF her rev.
