KEEPING IN TOUCH WITH HOME For Fai! and Winter Young Men s Two Button and Three Button Suits Have the Call. DAVID M. PFAELZER & CO'S T IS wonderful how much satisfac tion can be obtained from a talk over the Bell Telephone I A letter carries words, but the Bell Service has been brought up to such a point of perfection that the modulations of the voice are clearly heard. The cherry tones show that the talker is well and in good spirits. The call may come from a suburban village or a distant city, but within the limits of the carrying power of the voice the Bell Service carries the tone as well. You get a personal interview with a friend hundreds of miles away. A Is a guarantee of latest cut, dash, poise, atttactive patterns and mer- chant-tailored individuality.

If the planet Mars be really Inhab ited the jieople who live there must be an exceedingly agile race. The av erage weight of n man Is about 140 inunda. but the force of gravity on Mara is so much less than on the earth that the 140 i>ound man would weigh only flfty-tliree pounds If be were transported thither. With such light weight, and still retaining the same strength, an individual would be able to run with the speed of an express train, go skipping over ten foot walls and do various other ex traordinary things. On the moon a man would be even lighter. But on the sun our 140 pounder would have his troubles. Instead of being nn airy Individual be would weigh In the neighborhood of a ton and three-quarters. He would prob ably have the greatest difficulty in raising his hand, for that member would weigh nbout 300 pounds. According to scientific computation, a man who on earth weighs 140 pounds would on tlie other celestial bodies weigh as follows: The moon. 23 pounds; Mars, 53 pounds; Venus, 114 pounds; Mercury, 119 pounds; Neptune, 123 pounds; Uranus, 127 pounds; Saturn, 168 pounds; Jupiter, 371 pounds, and the sun. 3,871 pounds.—Chicago Tribune.

Many thrilling stories of fowling adventure are told by the Shetlanders. A man who had undertaken to climb a certain steep cliff was neither very experl I enced nor very brave, although he boasted of being both. He pushed up- wnrd. however, briskly without look Ing behind until lie had got up about 150 feet, when he stopped to breathe. The pause was fatal to his self posses sion, nnd lie called out in tones of ter ror, “Men. men. I am going—I am go ing.” But he still held on for a little, nnd it was not till he bad shrieked many times “I am going" that he did I fall headlong. Ills comrades, having thus been warned, moved the boat out of the way so that the poor fellow came sheer dowu Into the deep water. Mighty was the plunge, but at length be rose to the surface, when of course be was instantly caught hold of and dragged into the boat. After many gasps and much spluttering of sea water from his mouth his only remark was: “Eh, men. this is a sad story. I have lost my snuffbox.”—“Sketches and Tales of Shetland.” Th* Last Ditch. When William, prince of Orange^ afterward William III. of England, was elected stadtholder of the United Netherlands In 1672 and found himself In the midst of war with England and France he was asked by the Duke of Buckingham whether he did not see ruin Impending over bls country. “Nay,” be answered. "There la one certain means by which I can be sure enough to see my country's ruin. I will die In the Inst ditch.” And, reject ing nil terms of peace, he checked the Invasion of France by opening sluices and flooding every tract of land, drove them from Holland In 1074 and made honorable terms with England and finally after varying effort brought the war to a successful close by a treaty with France In 1678.
