when the car was smoothly under

They Couldn't Understand.

Probably more amusing incidents

any other area of similar size In
Washington The other night
while awaiting the arrival of a
train my attention was drawn to q
man who persistently approached
anyone who he thought would listen
to him for a minute. Each one ap-
preached, however, soon went away
shaking their head. This conduct
excited my curiosity. so I went up
to the man and asked him what he
wanted. He began talking very ex-
citedly in language quite strange.

him to no avail. Finally a word Of
Spanish made him almost shout for
glee.
1t seems he was a stranger in the
city and had a continuance ticket
to Lynchburg. Va, having been put
off the train in this city and had
been trying for hours TO try to find
out how to continue with his trip.
his ticket called for
a train which had left a short time
previously, so l took the man to
the ticket agent, who indorsed the
| ticket and told me when the next
train left, some hours later. After
explaining to him as best I could
with very limited knowledge of
Spanish, i left him standing by the
gate through which he would have
to pass to get his train.

What a Lizzie" Did.

For nearly a block I had joyed
in her rapt approach. She bounced
ball resembling an unripe grape
fruit. with the rhythmic movements
of which the graceful undulations
of her limbs pleasingly synchron-
lied. Naughty disdain enveloped
her as a mantle: mature. poised.
sophisticated, she ioated past. con-
scious only of the perfection of her
performance.
Then bomb exploded not far
from my left ear. wheeled and
saw a ubiquitous tin lizzard re-
sumo the course from which II had
partly shied: while a surprised and
bewildered little girl recovered a
ball that would never bounce again
and without a vestige of her for

with the Mexican government the
American army could not use the

Thereupon Gen. Rogers. as chief

Detroit loaded with motor trucks

army had no men trained in auto

Rogers friends assert, to cable
within two weeks for the present
quartermaster general. Thereafter,
for the entire period of American
army activities, Rogers directed
with great success. his supporters
contend, the greatest army supply
job that ever confronted any man.
Rogers father was an army Of
ficer. who, about the time of the
generals birth, retired from the
service and opened'a military school.
The present quartermas ster general
was brought up in military atmos-
phere. although he did not Join the
regular army until the Spanish
American war, when he was trans
ferred from the Michigan National
Guard.
To fail in reappointment would
be q virtual demotion for Rogers.
as he would automatically become
a colonel in the Quartermaster
Corps and, because of the army Sc

rank to at least a dozen officers in
the department.

Reorganization will be accom-

Ancestry of Birds.

Ev"luIloniStS believe that man arose
from the basic stock that produced
the apes. The ancestry Of birds can
be retrHcel still further to none other
than tie l"wly reptile. Fossil birds,
to which we must look for our evil
dence, are almost as scarce as fossil
men. Extinct reptiles and mammals
have been preserved for us in album
dance, but the very power of flight,
which raised tie bird above its rep
lillian ancestors. has done much to
cheat US OF avian remains. tumbrous.

Chinese Idea Of Goldfish.

1t is said that there is Il universal
belief among the Chinese that The finer
kinds of goldfish are raised from the
eggs of the silk moth. According to
the belief of the Chinese the silk moth
lays It's eggs on fresh brick or tile,
and this Is placed In shallow water and
exposed to the sun. In several days.
they hatch out minute larvae and are
fed on pond slime, developing rapidly
into gorgeous goldfish.
Great care has to he used in the
preparation Of the water, but the
process may be aborted by nm inter
vening thnnderrlaP, which sometimes
makes such havoc with the eggs that
they hatch ont frogs or scorpions in
stead Of The much desired goldfish.

Fragrance Of FIswers.

The fragrance Of flowers regulates

chemistry ut the University Of Nevada,
ut Reno. He bases his belief on recent
experiments with the essential oils OF
certain desert plants. These oils ap-
psrently serve as protection against
the extreme heat Of MONDAY and the
chill Of night
The vapor Of the oils ahsorbs more
heat than ordinary air. he says. Rose
oil absorbs thirty-slI times as much
heat and anisol 352 times rs much. BY

Here is the explanation. When sheep
were for sale he would view them as
n prospective purchaser, taking his dog
with him. The dog carefully noted
the individual sheep handled by his
master. Man and dog would then de-
part. Later in the day, or during the
night, the dog was sent back to the
flock. In an Incredibly short time the
collie sorted out the selected sheep
from Ten to twenty out Of flock
numbering hundreds-and drove them
