Tarquin did not reply, hut going into the garden he slushed off the heads of the largest popples, thereby commend ing the mussacre of the most intluen tlul citizens. The color of the poppy, resembling blood, also symbolizes death. When Persephone was stolen by Pluto her mother. Seres, searched for her day and night. The gods, pitying her and unable to restore Persephone, cuused popples to spring about her feet. She inhaled their heavy, hitter scent, and put the seeds Into her mouth, and presently sleep closed her eyelids and she gained that rest which her weurv body needed. The state flower of California is a brilliant yellow poppy, which sliiues on the mountain slopes under which gold lies hidden. The Saxon name for poppy is "popig.” It used to he a custom in olden days to strike a poppy petal in the hands to ascertain whether a lover was faith ful or not. If It broke it signified that he was unfaithful, but if it Held together and made a noise it showed he was true. Early Marriage Not Best for Happiness The Ideal age for marriage is twen ty-nine years for the groom and twen ty-four for the bride, according to a report In the Journal of Social Hy giene. Deviations of four years on either side for the groom and of two years for the bride make little differ ence, but marriage in which either party ls nineteen years or younger are from ten to u hundred times us risky as at the ideal age. These conclusions were reached from a study of l.OK) impartially se lected cases from the domestic rela tions court of Philadelphia. The two most pluuslble explanations for the fludlngs are either that premature or delayed marriage is a symptom of permanent character traits that arc unfavorable to success in family life, or that the boy or girl under twenty- one has not a sufficiently broad expe rlence to select a mate with whom a successful home can be established. If immaturity rather than perma nent Instability ls the cause, postpone ment of marriage and educational guidance may do much to eliminate domestic disaster. Few Leave Much Wealth Eleven people out of a hundred— whose estates are probated with the courts—bequeath to their heirs less than $500; ten leave from $500 to $1,000; twenty from $1,000 to $2,500. and eighteen from $2,500 to $5,000; about fifteen out of a hundred will leave estates valued from $5,000 to $10,000; fifteen will pass on to their reward» and leave from $10,000 to $*25,000; between five and six vvil. leave estates from $25,000 to $5t ,000. according to figures gathered by the federal trade commission when it was making a survey of our national wealth. The records of the probate courts of twenty-four “sample'’ coun ties throughout the United States were searched to see Just what the average Individual leaves to his heirs, the records covering a period of twelve years.—Thrift Magazine. The Departed Hero Now there Is no place In the modern novel for the hero. The novelist main tains, not without Irritation, that It ls none of Ills doing; he has no choice but to write of things as they are, and he finds no hero In modern life to occupy the place. "Tono Bungay” set the pattern for a whole school of novelists, until Dorothy Richardson and James Joyce broke It again. In "Tono Bungay" H. G. Wells gave to his principal character, young Pon derevo, a reasoned excuse for his inadequacy In the heroic role: "I began with the supposition that life consisted in doing things. I discovered that It consisted In having things done to me.”—Isabel Paterson in the Book man. DR. A. E.
