Moving of Museum Jolts Dan
 Cupid From Favorite Scene

LONDON, Feb. 10. (P-Because a museum of geology is being moved several writers of English love stor- ies will have to change the venue of their "happy endings" and many lov- CTS will be driven to another trysting place.
 For many years, the Museum of Practical Geology has been housed in Jerymyn street, just back of Picca- dilly. Few people ever crossed it's portals to gaze on cold monoliths and ammonities of prhistoric ages, and for this reason self-absorbed young couples found it an ideal spot.
 So famous did the museum become in this respect htat it achived addi- tional fame as the scene of love epi- sodes in many a story.
 Whether the romance of the old building will endure in the severely practical museum atmosphere of South Knsington, it's new home, re- mains to be seen.

Yesterday af- were noted being carried about town in secretive manner. The game last night revealed what they were. Auto horns, connected up with batteries, hooted mournful salutations to good, bad and indifferent plays; five gallon oil cans were beaten into unrecogni- gable shapes, wild blasts from shriek- ing tin and brass horns; the stamp ing of feet, the hoarse cries from wracked throats, and the jingling clang of innumerable bells, was but sweet music in the ears of the play CTS who were fortunate enough to have been members of the opposing factions. Yes, indeed! twas a ball game that will finger in the minds of the localities for many moon, as far as noise was concerned.
 To make long story short the low l ly Pirates obtained their first taste of victory for they humbled the oppo- sition, the Senators, by the sweet score of 13 to 12, and that, in the1ast half of the ninth they had come to bat with one tally behind the elusive Sen ators but single by Lien, and the same for Captain Mclaughlin, the lat ter turning his single into a home stretch when the gang went to sleep it Mclaughlin and his crew were sur prised when the umps called Mac safe at home plate.

Colors for Painters
Found in Odd Places

The origin of many common colors
is found in unexpected places. Turkey
red is made from the madden plant Of
Hindustan, while Prussian blue comes
from fusing horses hoofs and other
refuse animal matter with impure po-
tassium carbonate. Other color sources
are recorded by Tit-Bits as follows:
Gamboge is from the yellow sap of
a tree in Siam. India ink is made from
burned camphor and mastic comes
from near Sienna, Italy, while umber
is an earth found near Umbria. The
charcoal of the vine stock produces
blue black.
The camel furnishes Indian yellow
and the cuttlefsh gives sepia, which
is an inky fluid which the fish dis
charges when attacked Bistre is the

of mercury, yermilion is from the ore
cinnabar, and Chinese white is zinc,

supposing that at this rate Of cost the
dairyman finds his operations are not

to come into his mind is to buy a
