A RAZOR PROOF SNAIL
It Strolled the Entire Length of the
Blade's Keen Edge.
"When photographing a snail,"
writes Professor Ward lu the London
Strand Magazine. "I was surprised at
the fact that even the rough cut edjre
of a sheet of glass presented no dllll
cultlos to its locomotiou. its even pace
was continued In spite of the fact that
the sharp corner appeared to be pene
trating Its body. There we have ex
hibited the animal's delicate sense of
touch, and this led me to make a fur
ther experiment ,
"After I had placed the snail on the
butt of a razor's blade It slowly moved
along the buck of the blade and then
climbed completely over the sharp
edK, the raaur being In excellent con
dition. As the successive - waves
brought the tore part of Its foot near
the edge of the blnde its head was
held low dowa. and toe lower and
shorter pair of feelers neany touched
the blade, ns If feeling the way.
"At the moment wheu the sharp edge
was reached tbo small feelers were
fully extended toward It and Just at
the very instant when I expected tff
see them cut off they were both In
stantly retracted. They were little
mure than a hairbreadth away, and.
though Hie lower feelers possess no
eyes.- yetby their sudden movement
I was unite convinced that the snail ut
that iosta nt recognized danger,
"Still the foot traveled on, and slowly
the xtiiill di'.-frjvd Its whole Weight of
exactly one and a half ounces over
the cd;p. J.:tcv lr.ovin? toward the butt
and reiij-l-.iiiig erfectly unharmed
The ope-lc- experimented with wo
the Roman or edible kind, which ac
counts for Its comparatively larpe
..tight, It being the largest of Rrltlsli
snails."
Gcrrr.an Court Balls.
In the ;.Tinaii court balls not nil
those who nre Invited are permitted t"
take part In the dances which the em
peror witnesses. The emperor h.,H no
love for "(he quick and slovenly."
Many months before the ball the e
lecled couples rehearse the dances un
der the direction of Miss Gnsperinl. mis
tress of the court ballet. The empress
criticises freely the Indies and gentle
men who show any short coinings. The
ordinary rehearsals take place In one
of the chambers of the palace, but the
final rehearsal Is held on the eve of the
bnll at the residence of one of the In
vited. The WUener Memorial.
Peter A. R. Widener of Phl'.'.delphla
lost bis con and grandson in the Ti
tanic disaster. An a memorial to them
he Is adding $1,000,000 to the first en
dowment of $3,000,000 for the Wldenor
Home For Crippled Children. Safely
Invested and economically administer
ed, the Income on this additional sum
should offer support, care and surgical
attention for, more than 300 helpless
child victims of accident or of heredity

Tha Law.
Of all the parts of a law, the most
effectual is the vindicatory, for It Is
but lost labor to say, "Do this or avoid
that." unless we also declare. "This
shall be the consequence of your non
compliance." The main strength and
force of a law consist In the penalty
nnexod to It. Rlackstone.

anywuy. Patrice How so? Patience

Patrice Well. I'm sure that wasn't
true. Patience Why, yes; when be of

Eager to Please.
"I want you to see if you can't find
out tbat I am descended from a king,"
said the man who had become sudden
ly rich.
"Very well, sir." replied the genealo
gist. "We have n large stock of kings
to select from. Have you any prefer

A Popular Girl.
"Yes; she has promised to be mine
some day."
"But when?"
"She enn't exactly say as yet Seems
she will first have to break off four or

Famous Pens.
The collecting of pens that have beea
owned by or associated with famous
personages Is a hobby that has attract
ed some collectors, though the purrult
Is an expensive one. A well worn gold
pen used by Charles Dickens brought
$200 at a sule of his effects, A ieo
made cut of wood from a box owned
by George Washington, the box having
been made from a desk brought to
America by the Mayflower, Is valued
at $2,500.-Exchange.
FOR THE CHILDREN
A Difference.
When I so 'erou the street to play
And mother says that I may stay .
On hour at Dorothy's, oh. my, .
The way that one short hour does flyl
We Just about set settled down
To make our dolls a bat or gown
Or Jump the rope or make mud pies '
When, to our very crest surprise,
The clock at Dorothy's will say.
"The hour Is up, so no more playl"
Juat how It can be I don't know, '
But that old clock can hurry sol
I When mother says, "It's practice time,"
And I roust waan my bands and climb
On that ptano stool, dear me.
That hour's aa different aa can bel
The outdoors looks so fresh and say.
And Dorothy has gone to play.
The boy next door has made a swing
And awing! aa high as anything.
And down the street the organ man
la Blinding all the tunes he can
And here I have to drum away
One whole Ions hour this lovely day!
I don't see how one hour can be
Aa long as that one seems to ma

Alphabet of Proverbs.
A grain of prudence Is worth a pound
tf graft
Boasters are cousins of liars.
Denying a fault doubles It
Envy shoots at others and wounds
herself.
Foolish fear doubles danger,
God teaches us good things by our
own hands.
He has hard work who has nothing
to do.
It costs more to revenge wrongs than
to suffer them. v
Knavery Is the worst trade.
Learning makes a man tit company
for himself.
Modesty Is a guard to virtue.
Not to hear conscience is the way to
silence It
One hour today Is worth two tomor

faces.
Quiet conscience is quiet sleep.
Richest Is lie that wants least.

Cams ot Elements.
After two captains have been chosen
they proceed to select their parties.
(.liDus!::;,- alien. ,iiei till the company Is
equally divided They seat themselves
lu two rows facing each other. Oue
of the captains begins the game by
throwing a-$uill or knotted baudker
chief to one of the players on the op-
poslte side, crying aloud at the same
time either "earth," "air," "fire" or
"water." He usually tries to throw It
to oue who Is apparently least expect
Ing it If "air" Is the word called the
person In whose lap or nearest whom
the missile falls must promptly name
some bird; if "water," a fish or some
denizen of the water; If "earth," an
animal before the thrower counts ten
but at the word "fire" no reply must
be made.
If tbe player answers correctly he
then throws the ball or handkerchief in
bis turn to one of bis opponents, but if
be falls to answer in time or replies
Incorrectly or speaks when It is not
his place to answer be drops out of the
game. This rule Is strict for thus Is
the winnlnjr side determined, the game
going on till all on one sde have bad
to retire from the contest
A Wren's 8nging Lesson.
A wren whose nest was In a box
near a country bouse was watched by
the family as she patiently instructed
her little ones, says the Philadelphia
Ledger. Placing herself on one side
of the opening nod in front of her pu
pihvsbe first sang her entire soug very
distinctly. One little flatterer opened
Its moutb and tried to follow ber, but
after a few notes Its voice gave out
and It lost the tune. Mamma Wren
Immediately took up the melody at tbut
point and snug It through us clearly as
possible, when the youngster tried It
again and finished triumphantly. t
Then the mother sang again, and an
other nestling followed her, breaking
down as tbe first bad done and begin
ning afresh. Sometimes there were
three or four failures before the rune
was carried through, but tbe wren al
ways begau where tbe little oue broke
down and sang to the end These sing
lng lessons lasted for some time, and
several of tbem were glveu every day
Conundrums.
Why do some congressmen wear Ions
beards) Beeauae their wives buy then
neckties.
Why are chemists so clever at an
swcrlng? Because they use s retort.
Is It unheslthftil for doc to sleep In
Its owner's bedroom? Doks sre tough
animals. He may get used to it.
Why are some Englishmen' so verj
straight? Probably because tliey are
descendants of great rulers
Why are some men called "seashorr
men?" They sre young peers piers
They have sandy complexions wav
hair and shmh1 oeeni s of money.
