abound in those waters.
To Seek Exploding Fish.
Mr. Beebe declared he wants espe-
ciallv to return with the peculiar fish
which explodes on coming to the sur
face. This fish, he explained, lives
deep in the water, has flexible body
that contracts when downward d1-
rection is desired and expands when
the upward direction is preferred. Ii
the water pressure is removed from
the fish. as happens when it rises to
the surface, the fish eXplodes Mr.
Beebe plans to bring the fish to the
surface under pressure and keep it un--
der pressure in a specially constructed
tank
A fish that lives in the Sargasso
sea. but that has not been brought

discover the use OF these patches, how
the light is generated and whether the
fish can turn the light off.

WHY THE.GIFT, o HUSBAND?
Suspicion First Entered Feminine Mind When Adam Pushed Eve

From the Bal timore Sun.

they came for exchange or ready
cash." he scoffed cynically.
Tut tut" admonished the judge.
Lets have no elimination or recrim-
ination. Let us get at the bottom OF
this thing through cold reasoning.
"As | see it, women have us all
wrong. A woman is endowed with the
feline suspicion of all things, and es-
pecially so if they emanate from the
opposite sex While accepting all OF
ferings as her rightful due she never
relaxes her attitude of hopeful waiting.
So, when in a mistaken moment her
husband brings her gift she knows
that her suspicion was we'll founded,
and is happily unhappy"
The business woman spoke, her tone
a trifle purring:
This suspicion and derogation OF
which you complain has come down
through the ages. 1t was first instilled
into the feminine mind at the time OF
the apple episode, when Adam, in his
self-abnegation, stood behind Eve and
pushed her into the limelight, al
though undoubtedly she would have
much preferred to have effaced her
self"
"Enslaved Themselves"
Suspicion is the mother of the most
OF the marital troubles of today,
averred the judge. "Harping upon an
other woman, morning, noon and
night. has exactly the same effect as
advertising a product over and over
again in the same terms. Eventually,
it bites into the mind and stays there.
Many faithful, loving husband has
had his thoughts directed to another
woman by the pointing finger OF his
wife"
Believe me or not" said the bust
ness woman, but women have pro-
gressed so far that it is an actual fact
that there are many who can regard
their husbands pretty stenographer
with serene eye That is because
they are beginning to have faith in
their ability to hold their husbands il
they adopt a broad and sane view, and
credit them with the many virtues
which they, no doubt, possess in com
mon with women"
Some time" said the married wo-
man, in the not distant future Womer
are going to awake to the fact that the
provider of the home should have
some personal liberty in it to express
himself. The day is fast coming wher
room-not in the garnet or the eel
lar-but huge, light, comfortable
room, will be set aside for him, where
he may wallow in smoke, ashes, pa
pers and ink in his hearts content
secure in the knowledge that here he Is
supreme and that only by his own IN
vitation may anyone enter into his
sanctuary"
"Ye gods" exclaimed the pessimist
"The millennium! | never hoped t.

in them. The farmers who did not de
stroy the cotton stalks have big
struggle ahead OF them next summer
