electric shock, New Haven, Conn.,
August 14, 1918. Rugiero picked up
the broken end of an electric light
wire which carried a current of 2500
volts. He was knocked unconscious
and fell across the wire. Stewart,
wearing a pair of very old rubber
gloves, attempted to separate Rug-
ero from the wire, but was immedi­
ately shocked and fell unconscious
on the wire. Stewart was rescued
by two young men, who dragged him
away by means of a strap. Rugerlo
was fatally injured. Stewart was
severly burned on his hands and
kness and one of the fingers of his
right hand had to be amputated. He
was disabled 30 weeks.

Blotting Paper Used to Prevent
Loss of Priceless Library.
London.—The late Dr. G. E. Morri­
son, correspondent of the London
Times at Peking, had collected a splen­
did library of books relating to China
which he sold to the house of Mitsui
in Japan. The Mitsuls, the Rothschilds
of the Far East, were about to estab­
lish a seat of Oriental study and de­
sired the Morrison books for this pur­
pose. This much Is known, but whut
happened to the library between the
books leaving Doctor Morrison’s house
In Peking and their arrival at Tokyo
Is not generally known and reads
somewhat like a romance.
These priceless volumes were
packed by the Japanese agents of the
purchaser In ordinary packing cases
and made the journey safely through
the Yellow sea and were landed at the
Japanese port of arrival. The cases
were then put Into the ordinary ware­
houses of the port. Then a strange
thing happened.
The Japanese port was suddenly
visited without warning by a tidal
wuve of unprecedented force and di­
mension. All the warehouses were
flooded and the whole library was
drenched in sea water.
It seemed
that the damage to the priceless col­
lection of books must be irreparable.
The house of Mitsui, however, is re­
sourceful ; every scrap of blotting pa­
per in Japan was secured and literal­
ly thousands of hands were set to
work Interleaving every damaged page
with blotting paper. The entire ap­
proach to this particular port was
blocked with wonderful books being
dried—like Bombay ducks—In the sun.
The damage, of course, was heavy,
but from the literary standpoint the
library was saved.

CAN CATS SEE IN TH E DARK?
NCE more we pay homage to our
faithful ally, the tailored suit.
It has been rehabilitated, with
all the honors of its former prestige
restored, for the tailored suit is an ab­
solute essential to good dressing.
There are many new points of inter­
est in the up-to-date winter tailor suit.
First of all, the fashion powers that
be refer to It as the trotteur, a fa­
vorite word in the modern style vocab­
ulary. Again, the general consensus
of opinion is that it is perfectly prop­
er for the trotteur to answer the re­
quirements of winter with one of the
new “cushion” fur collars, and that
the seml-tailored suits be heavily bor­
dered and collared with fur.
The all-biack tailored suit, with
trimmings of glossy black fur, Is the
last word In fashionable attire. Deal­
ers declare they are having difficulty
in meeting the widespread demand for
black caracul, Persian lamb and Amer­
ican broadtalL Monkey remains a
trimming favorite, and suits of cloth
or velvet are heavily gamltured with
this novelty.
Very effective black cloth suits for

Not all fur-trim m ed suits a re black,
however, fo r th e season abounds in

tones, O riental reds, tau p e or beige,
con trasted with handsom e fu r trim ­
mings.

TRICTLY speaking, cats cannot
see in com plete darkness any
more than hum an beings can.
But, owing to a peculiar construction
o f th eir eyes, they cun m ake much b et­
te r use of w hatever light th ere is and.
as a result, they can find a way
through a room which appears to be
very dark.
T he pupils of a c a t’s eyes a re capa­
ble of being enlarged or distended to
a g re a t extent, th u s lettin g in every
p article of light. M oreover, th is en­
largem ent of the pupil tak es place al­
m ost in stantly aud there is therefore
little ap p a re n t hesitancy on the p a rt
of a cat which en ters a dark room
a fte r being in the bright light. The
sam e principle holds good, in a lesser
extent, in th e hum an eye, for a fte r we
“become accustom ed to th e d a rk ”—or
a fte r th e pupils of our eyes become
sufficiently distended to allow the rays
to e n te r—we are able to see much
m ore clearly and distinctly than fo r­
m erly. This, however, takes an ap ­
preciable time, while it occurs a u to ­
m atically in the eye of the cat.
