Alive THOUGH Declared Dead.

No man has ever died twice, yet two
death certificates recorded the death of
Jean Ante, hairdresser to Marie An
tOinette. When the royal family at
tempted to escape from France the
hairdresser went ahead as a scout. He
was arrested. condemned to death and
the records show that he was guillO-
tined. But he was alive in 1914 and
the Paris Register records his death in
1920. 1t has been said that the ma
chine which was to have cut off his
head broke down. He was one Of a
group Of prisoners who waited for the
machine to be repaired. A gap opened
In the thrOng behind and he slipped
through. The crowd closed about him.
Later that day man was seen walking
with his hands behind him. He is
said to have spent the night In a ditch
and later to have escaped to Russia.

An observer named Kent. wishing to
make some colOred sketches of sea
horses, placed two of them in separate
glass dishes few yards apart. Short

sharp little swapping or chirping
noise coming ar brief. regular intervals
from one OF the dishes. Almost lmme

from the other fish. On examination
Kent found that the little sea horses
were signaling or talking to each other
in this manner. The noise was found
TO be made by the muscular closing
and sudden expansion of the lower
jaw. These SQUADS are produced by
both sexes and they are both more
frequent and louder than usual In the
