Moon Thoroughly Mapped.

The visible moon has been carefully
mapped with drawings and photo
graphs. Sir Robert Ball has said,
astronomers know the surface of the
moon better than geographers know
the interior Of Africa. Every spot ON
the face Of the moon which is as
large as an English parish has been
mapped, and all the more important
objects have been named"
This applies to only one-half of tho
moons surface. OF the other we know
nothing. The moons surface is richly
covered with markings. the largest of
which are great dark spaces which
may be seen with the naked eye. The
shadows thrown by the mountains of
the moon are very dense and sharp
because the moon has no air. BY
means of the shadows thrown the
height Of the peaks on the moon have
been measured. Some of the craters
are more than 60 miles wide; some
have walls 10000 feet high.

WHY
Ducks Are Enabled to Shed
Water From Their Backs

Like water oft q ducks back" Is q
phrase that We often use, for a ducks
back, is the most perfect waterproof
In the world.
Land birds are soon saturated by a
heavy shower Of rain. You may see
them afterwards huffing out their
feathers so that sun and wind may
dry them. But no drop Of water can
penetrate the plumsge of any aquatic
bird. Gulls. ducks. grebes. and cormo
rants dive after food ON the bleakest
days without getting either wet or
cold
These birds are provided with nat
ural macintosh In the shape of a
covering of feathers which fit tightly
one on top of the other. But their
plumage would not remain waterproof
If they did not look after 1t carefully.
Every feather must be creased at least
once day If 1t is to turn the water
Watch a duck after its bath and
you will see the process. The beak
Is pushed byrd into the roots of the
feathers, and then brought up to their
very tips. Diving birds are provided
with special glands which supply the
beak with all the grease 1t needs.

WORTHY OF ITS NICKNAME.
English Parliament Known to Fame
Chiefly for the Things 1t
Failed to Accomplish.

Addle parliament is name given
to the English parliament which as
sembled in London on April 5, 1614-
107 years before the union of the par
liaments of England and Scotland.
The parliament of King James / was
dissolved on the 9th of the following
June. 1t was called the addle parlia-
ment because 1t demonstrated with the
king on his levying 'benevolence" or
forced contributions from his subjects,
which was Illegal, but it passed no
acts. This was due to the circum-
stances that 1t was not given time to
do so, the king dissolving it and so
getting rid Of troublesome and posi-
bly, dangerous critics. Addle is from
the Saxon word. adj" sick, diseased.
Addle as an adjective means having
lost the power of development by be-
coming diseased as eggs. Hence, pro-
ducing nothing, unfruitful or barren,
as addle brains. AS verb 1t means
to make addle; to make corrupt or
morbid, as to addle eggs.

Stock, who says that his head looks as
If 1t had been half cut off. The author
tried 10 ger MIN to give an account Of
the adventure, but all "Treacle" would
say was: ME push; i'm leave CO." He

still embedded In his skull. and for the

SAYS ANIMALS Do REMEMBER
Why Old Idea 10 Wrong Is Proved by
Incidents Related by English
Writer.

l have read an article in which a
trapper denies that animals have a
real memory, says writer in the Lon
don Times. He admitted that most of
them knew enough to avoid trap az
ter an experience or two With it,
but contended that this was merely
a manifestation of the self-preserva-
ton instinct.
The same man cited an instance
not at all unfamiliar-of dogs re-
fusing to hunt with a man who had
kicked him. He said that this too
was only the instinct of all living
creatures to avoid injury.
Animals do have memory--at least
some Of them do. The trapper's theory
would not explain those many evil
dences of recollection wherein self
preservation plays no part. l once
carried a fox-terrier into the house
after he had been well-nigh killed by
an automobile. His master had just
moved into the apartment house, and
| had never seen the dog before that
day. We moved away two days later,
anu OiQ ilOl SCC lllC ltiiiCI LUZ ONci
four months. Then one day passed
the house-or was about to do So
when out came that dog, wagging his
stubby tail. He jumped all over me,
In joyful recognition--and memory.
An amusing story, significant on this
subject, Is told by my father. AS a
boy he lived on a farm, and was al
ways a close student of animal nature.
The mare he usually drove was old
and fat, and would never go faster
than walk unless urged. There were
two roads to town, one branching OF
from the other and little shorter. 1t
had been Old Mauds custom to take
this road, of her own volition, until on
one occasion q vicious dog barked at
her and snapped at her legs. After
that the driver had to be on his guard /;
Maud would speed up when about 90
yards from the turmoil and try to get
by it before she could be restrained.
This showed not only memory, but
a sense for planning.

Why Mirrors Become cIouded.

"These wintry and rainy days are
sure tough for me-" said the elevator
man In an Office building.
Flows that?" asked the casual pas
senger.
Look at those mirrors on each side
OF the car" directed the elevator man.
II have to wipe them off about every
five minutes. On cold days the femi-
nine nose gets red, and on rainy days
well, the rain washes the powder
off their noses. What's the result?
Every carload take up crowds over
near these mirrors, takes out the old
powder puff and starts dollln'. There's
a bunch Of them, you see, and by the
time reach the top floor the mirrors
are so clouded with powder they don't
reflect thing"
Except possibly feminine vanity"
observed the casual passenger.

EXPLAINING DoG-FAcED MEN
Chinese Tribe Said to Owe Their Nal.
formation to the Impatience Of
y, Ancient King.


Curiosity, and mans at that, is re-
sponsible for the dog faces" Of a
large tribe in southeastern China, ac-
cording TO legend.
Time was when this tribe was as
pleasing in appearance as any other,
the legend runs. The king in those
far-of days greatly coveted the head
of one of his enemies, as decoration
for a spear-point in the court. He
offered his third daughter in marriage
to the hero who would Stay the
enemy.
The king of the dogs made up his
mind TO win human bride. In due
time he laid the coveted head at the
feet of the human king.
The princess, of course, was dis
mayed at the Idea of marrying dog
and her father was sympathetic. A
sage came to the rescue, saying thut
II the dog were put in a box, and the
box were hung over the wall of the
city for 40 days, the dog would change
into man.
His directions were followed. But
before the 40 days had elapsed, the all
too-human king opened the box to see
how the transformation was progress
ing. Out stepped something that was
man except for the head, which was
still that of dog.
The princess was obliged TO marry
the dog king anyway, and the race
gradually came to bear the doglike
facial and cranial features observable
today. The name of the tribe, Hak-
kas signifies ''dog-headed."

WV MaIamu.e DOCS Are Scarce.

Malamute dogs, the halfwolf, half
canine animals known as huskies, are
selling In the North at 500 apiece
and up, according to returned hunters
and prospectors. When the North Is
snow-bound and lakes and rivers are
locked with ice against navigation,
travel is almost exclusively by dog
sled. The lowest price at which dogs
can be obtained Is 500 each, accord
ing to advlces First-class animals,
such as crack "mushers" pride them
selves on keeping. are hard to get
at any price, and when obtainable
cost several hundred dollars, or as
much as good horse in the South.
Scarcity of dogs, 1t is said, Is due to
the neglect of breeding stock by the
Indians.

Is This OId-F aShioned2

NY Dear Martha Lee: l am almost 1s
and have gone with steady fellow over a
year. / love him very much, although he
told me he loved me when he didn't
have gone with other boys, too, only I am
awfully Disguised with them.
Now, do you think 1 od-fashioned
Just because 1 don't believe boys should go
with married women or kiss different girl
every night? l though my fellow was
different. but found out he was just about
like the rest of them. l cannot fall out of
love. Do you think I should write and ask
him for my ring and return his, or what
should + do?
Most boys think I should try to make
this boy jealous but I don't do you? He
makes me lose faith in everyone and if I
could not trust him l could not trust any
body. BETTY.
So your idol has feet of clay? 1t
Is too bad that you made an idol Of
him. Far better, at II, when you
started to go with him, to have him
as friend, not IAN ideal as you
probably were too young to Judge.
If you are old-fashioned, there are
r1any others Of us who are in the
same class.
Keep your ideals, even though you
have lost your ideal. Send back his
ring and ask for yours in return. You
were too young for that sort of thing.
You will find the world has a num-
Der of men with ideas similar to
yours, so don't lose faith.

Central Indiana Gas Seeks
Increased Rates.

At the same time the Central In
diana Gas Company was urging the
public service commission today to
authorize increases in gas rates at
Muncie, Hartford City and Paramount,
the company filed petitions for per-
mission to surrender franchises in
nine cities and towns.
Franchises were surrendered in
Mupcie, Alexandria, Marion, Elwood,
Anderson, Paramount, Hartford City,
Riverside City and Normal City
John H. Maxon, president of the
company, said the natural gas sup
ply for the three cities was so un-
certain that the possibility of future
service was jeopardized.
He said the increases were neces-
sary to supply artificial gas. He said
the company had made no profit on
domestic service in the last three
years. ARTHUR D. Mckinley, city
attorney, opposed the increase. John
w. McCardle, chairman Of the com
mission, said engineers would investi-
