WASHINGTON.—Have you n earthquake-predictor In your home? If not you should pet nheaaant,f says Prof. ?<\ Ornorl, ^Japanese seismologist waiting in ^recent bulletin of the Imperial earthquake Investigation committee for this bird Is exceedingly sitlve to earth tremors even when so slight ns to bo unobservable by humans. Observation of a pheasant In Ja pan during a period of about three years, in which 23 earthquakes were recorded on delicat.o Instru ments. showed that it crowed eith er before, or during, every slight shock. In 34 per cent of the cases the bird crowed before the scien tist’s machine recorded the quav ers, beating the instrument by ns much as eight second. In 20 per cent of the occurnpces the bird crowed simultaneously with sensi ble earthquake motion; and In an other 20 percent of the cases the bird crowed when the motion was to slight to he sensible to the ob server. In only five rases did the f*hensant crow nfte<r the motion recorded, and only once dM It fait to crow at all. The keen p^rc^ptlon of earth* quake occurrence by *’• bird 13 no doubt due to its aento sente, bv which it is enabled mechanically to feel the smnll vlbrnt.ops. in tho preliminary stage of the • motion, Prof. Omorl says. ceded by preliminary tremors that are so slight as to be hardly re cordable. That the pheasant should be very sensitive and take alarm at the slightest disturbance, either natural or artificial, Is probably a condition necessary to Its cxlst- iyiee, the scientist declares, as the bird with its long pointed tall and comparatively smnll wings, has n high flying capacity and nestles o 1 the ground among tin thick un dergrowth. POINCARE^PEAKS LITTLE BUT WRITES ALL THE TIME (By Associated Press.) A TUB—PREMIER Poincare uses tip more pens In a week than did his predecessor, Brfand. in n year i keen observer of the French for eign office said recently. The rea; ion is that Polncnro speaks hut little, but writes much. Hriand. al ways had a cigarette In his hand; Poincare always has a pen. The present premier receives very few callers, and except for Count Perrettl de la Rocca #v direc tor nt the ministry, nnd his chief of cabinet, M. Hormitte, Poincare sees hardly nny one. He remain? at his desk throughout long days —from 12 to 14 hours—writing There Is not n single document coming out of the ministry of for eign nffalrs. Whether tho be grave and solemn Instructions to ambas sadors or minor matters of* routinr business, that thr premier d?fs not *.«■ personally, and often time cor rects or nmpllflec In his own hand His famous speech delivered a* Sc nils duly 15, written entirely In that'crisp. shnrp handwriting which is peculiar to the premier of France, went to the government printers without a single correction "Anybody else lost?" asked Nick. King Snookums was just ahbut to say no, that his subjects were all accounted for, when In rushed Mrs. Peterkln Pee Wee. "Peterkln’a gone!” she cried. 1 got so warm, he said h>- was Ing to find the North Pole and he started at ten o’clock this morning. Now It’s two and he Isn’t homrt yet and I’ve had hlH dinner waiting since twelve o’clock. I had such a nice dinner, too! Apple seed pudding with dandelion Juice nnd ant’s egg omelette,’' "We’ll find him," sabl Nancy "Don’t you worry any more. Hut ns he went away in daylight hf couldn’t have been riding a light* nlng hug." "No. I forgot to tell you,*’ said Mrs. Peterkln Pee We* 1 . “He was riding a fly." "Then I believe I know exactly where to find him,’’ raid Nancy firmly. "We’ll look In all the kltch "flut kitchens aro hot!" ex claimed Mrs. Peterkln. "And Pe* terkln was hunting for the North Pole. He wanted some place thal was cool.” Nancy laughed: “I know a se cret," she declared, nodding- her Wise little head." Now. Mrs. Drown w*as going te make Ice-cream because it Yams Billy Brown’s birthday nnd Far mer Drown had put a large cake *- to At first they thought he wasn’t there but they soon saw the* j Ice and a hole melted In It you cbuld st!ek your finger Into, nnd peeked in. And there was Peterkln Pee)Wee melted down In, nnd almost frbaran. "I went to sleep on the Nftftll Pole,” he yelled up at them. "Am,* when Awoke up I was away do ton here, Jlrrr! Please throw m'4" a rope nnd pull me out." • i So Nick let down a ple£# of string nnd peterkln caught ,hold nnd was hauled up safely nnd taken home to his worried wife. "I’ll hunt the South Pole next time!” he declared with chattering teeth. * (To Be Continued) JACK DAW’S ADVENTURES The Pirate Ship CHAPTER 9 . , .. Story hy Hal Cochran. Drawln*a by Loo Wright.
