Bar-' bara June Onbon, San Francisco orphan bnby recovered In Los An geles last night after having been missing Bince Saturday from bur home at San Francisco, rushed In to the arms of her "dran-ma" here this morning. - ' . Baby's face ' radiated happiness as she tried with her childish limi tation to explain where she had been since last Saturday vrfieh she dropped from sight In a depart ment store at San Francisco. A state wide search had been made tor the baby for several days. The burden of her prattle hinged about a "big boat" and another wo man. .-'.'

Purpose of Knocker This story Is vouched for by one who has been fur many yeurs cap tain of a sailing ship. Several times during the past few weeks he had been called to Uie door by a "rat-tut" on the knocker Just as he was comfortably settled down with his pipe, und on each occasion at first there was oppareutly no reason to answer the door. One night, however, the vestibule door caught for a momeut as he opened It, und left only a small gup of about six or eight Inches. Through this gap suueezotl Uie household cat, a fine bluck one, and he guessed - the animal had on other occasions slipped past unnotlfcd. Fetching an electric torch, he ex amined tile door, and found marks showing the cat had climbed up, held Itself In position by a grip on the door molding while It raised the knocker, a theory which was later proved correct. After hearing the usual- knock the cap tain crept quietly round the side entrance, and wnlted until the cut repeated, the operation, then dropped quietly on the mut and looked expectantly at the door. London Mull. "Bore Waves" A high tidal wave, or succession of two or three, rushing up a nar row estuary or tidal river, as at change of tide Is culled a bore wave. They occur In places whore the tides rise and fall a considerable number of feet, as In the Bay of Fundy and various rivers In Eu rope and other parts of the world. As the tldo advances the wutor is suddenly thrown in ns If lira mass, and then pursues Its course up the estuary or river nnd In opposition to the current, presenting a volume of water niovlng with great rapid ity and reslRtleus force and with a height varying from two to three feet to more than twelve feet, in the caso of the Tslen-Tangklnng the bore Is said to have a rise of twenty feet nnd to advance with a loud roar at the rate of ten miles an hour. What Causes Clumsiness? Dr. E. C. Clements, who is a Brit ish physician and aviator, says that many people are clumsy because they lack the proper balance be tween the muscular systenm of their eyes. The physician made a thorough study of the eye disor ders which make some men In capable of becoming good aviators. The clumsy man cannot land the planes successfully, even 'If he can operate them successfully when In the air. According to Doctor Clements, two factors are essential to proper binocular vision. The brain must Interpret correctly the Impulses which nre received from the eyes. The muscles must re spond to these stimuli efficiently. There nre ninny cases where de fects of this kind can be reme died by a course of visual training exercises. Pathfinder Magazine. Sfafe Constitutions The states in existence nt tfce time of the drafting of the Consti tution of the TTnlted States had con stitutions of their own and It was upon these that the federal one was patterned. The states devel oped their documents from colo nial charters, which In turn were modeled upon the charters of mer cantile companies of the Fifteenth and Slxtenth centuries. Massachu setts Is the only strife which re tains the constitution framed In that period, hut It has heen revised and amended. All the slates, how ever, In their modern constitutions retain mnny of the principles and much of the framework of the other documents.
