John's, Newfoundland.--Recking little of small prolifs or disasters, the Musky giants of ihe northern outposts have cast their fort lines again with Hm settling licet that sails away each March to lhe ieeliolds. They lind this annual search for the wealth of Hie ice pans Ihe chief out bet for n spirit of adventure In- limited from their sendng sires of Elizabethan days. Eleven steamers carry the battalion of seal killers this year. flow and clumsy these men appear as they walk along the waterfront streets, selecting from the shops their scanty requirements for the voyage— a slieatIt knife, a steel, a pair of skin boots, a cap with ‘‘cars” and little else. Cxcited aa Cehooiboye. Their prosaic mien reveals little either of agility or thought of adven ture, but when Hie word is passed to cast off and made for sea they are as full of excitement.as a crowd of schoolboys, as active as acrobats. They must lie active and alert, for curo-fuotedness ami quickness to act means life. This year an airplane piloted by Colin Caldwell, a Canadian aviator, lias been enlisted to operate from the land and help the ship locate the seal herds, first in the gulf of St. Lawrence, later on the Northeast coast. Year after year Hie “main patch” comes -nit of tlie North on the breast of 11 le Arctic current. The aviator’s findings are sent to the fleet by radio. Seals, some “square nippers” ten and twelve feet long and weighing as much as l,r.iOU pounds, ofliers “harps'* and “hoods,” whose young weigh as little as 45 pounds, are the game of the hunters. Wide Variation in Profits. Fortunes vary. East year ihe shares of men on different ships ranged from $85 to $33..!iG. The year before it varied from $124.GO down to $12.28, de pending upon Hie amount of fat brought into port. The hazards the men run for their uncertain reward include blizzards, treacherous trails and destruction of ships by storm and ice. In 1S!)8 a blizzard brought death to 48 men of tin: crew of Hie Greenland. In 111] 1 the Southern Cross, return- in:; to port, was lost with 173 men. In the same year 77 of the crew of the ;i. S. Newfoundland were unable to regain their ship when a blizzard over took' them, and-next day they were found frozen to death. Sue'.) disasters, however, prove no deterrent to this race of men. For generations they have found the call of the frozen seas Irresistible. Piasaist Percy Grainger Engaged to Poetecs White Plains, N. Y.—The romance of a noted pianist and composer and a Swedish poet and painter was revealed with announcement of I he engage ment of Percy Grainger lo Miss Ella Viola Strom. The romance began on a Pacific liner a year ago when lho pianist was re turning from his native Australia, lie wrote in a letter, asking Mr. and Mrs F. E. Morse, his manager and secre tary, to announce the thigagemcnt. it was prpmoted, lie said, by the resem blance of Miss Strom lo the family of ilia mother, since whose death in 1022 ho has confessed to a feeling of lone liness and depression. The marriage is expected to take place in August after Miss Strom com pletes a tour of Europe. The honey moon will be spent tramping in Gla cier National park, Montana. Is Woman a Percon? Canadian Court to Rule Ottawa.—Whether a woman is eli gible for appointment to Hie senate is a question to ho decided by the Su preme court of Canada. Acting on a petition signed by live women of west ern Canada, the government has asked the court to decide whether a woman j; a “person” within the meaning of Hie section of the British North Amer ican act respecting appointments to the senate, tt was learned here. The ease recalls fiie exclusion of tho Viscountess BliomMa from Hie house of fords ive years ago. Her unsuc cessful petition to tlie committee on privileges of tlie house was based on mi imperial enactment providing that “a person .shall not be disqualified by sex or marriage from the exercise of any public function.” One Wild Beast That Defies Power of Man In tlie eternal game of “tag” be tween man and the animals lie lias limited, there Is only one beast known to man that lias never been caught. Every zoo in the world would like very much to get the white rhinoceros to he found in large numbers near the rivers of the Sudan, but none lias thus far been successful. II lias been found so hopeless to at tempt lo catch a while rhinoceros alive that tlie government at Khar- j touin lias forbidden tho liunlitig (if I tliis strange animal. Compared with tlie white rhino, lions and elephants nix: easy marks. He will kill his hunt er or himself. At first sight of a hu man the white rhino charges. If the hunter evades his fierce onrush, tlie rhino will, in his blind rage, charge tlie first substantial object within his reach, with a ferocity terrible to lie- hold. It is the only animal which, threat ened with captivity, will deliberately commit suicide. Young white rhinos which were captured by natives died within a very short time, so sensitive j are they to captivity. If it were pos sible to catch them, they would keep lip their frenzied charges until lliey killed themselves. The London zoo authorities have of fered thousands of pounds for a speci men of Hie white rhinoceros, and un til tlie ban of (lie Sudan government was established, practically every na tive in the section tried to catch one. It was tlie great slaughter of (lie boasts in an effort to capture one alive which resulted in the law against hunting the white rhino, which seems determinedly to prefer dentil—his death or tlie hunter's—to captivity. Operator on Oiean Linor Bess His Fiancee Appear Before Trans mitter in London, Great Singer Famous for Her “Temperament” Tlie great Patti’s mother—also a noted priina donna—was a victim of that besetting sin, jealousy. One eve ning, relates Emma Calve, singing with a colleague who had false eyebrows, tiie eider I’atti, jealous and furious at (ho success of her comrade, began to stare at her fixedly. “What is Hie matter?” the other whispered under her breath. “Your right eyebrow lias fallen off,” came tlie answer. Tlie poor victim, horrified, tore off her left eyebrow, and remained for tlie rest of the act with only her right one in place. On another occasion Patti’s mother became annoyed at tlie applause given Labiaclie, perhaps tlie greatest basso of all lime. She seized one of (lie wreaths destined for him and, plant ing it on tier own licud, approached the footlights. “I have well deserved it myself,” she exclaimed to an astonished audi ence.—Kansas City Star. “Common Cola” Cured by Freezing Process “Feed a cold and starve a fever” is an old folk saying, but it seems that nmv I he word “feed” should lie changed (o “freeze,” seeing that we have good authority for stating that the be: f place for curing a cold, next to tlie Arctic regions, is (lie refriger ating chamber of a cold-storage oslaii- b -tn < nt. in short, (lie best cure for a cold la—more cold.

Way to Dry Cups There are some men behind the counters of business places who are very clever. Tlie 11 her day I saw a j counter man in a local lunch room j pull off a pretty good stunt. The i man was washing cups and I noticed ' lie did not dry them with n towel or ! machine. He simply placed a dry ] towel on a large metal tray. Ho ex plained to me that as lie turned the fups upside down tlie water or mois ture all ran (o tlie towel on the tray. The towel took up all the moisture leaving Hie cups dry. I looked over some of tlie cups which tlie waiter said lie had standing for a time. They were perfectly dry. l’erhaps tlie idea will be copied by housewives.—Salem News. Deacon for Long Night As the axis nl the earth is inclined at an angle of 23’A degrees, the Arctic circle is not illuminated by rays from Hie sun during the winter period. The sun is below tlie horizon practically the w hole of Hie 24 hours of I lie day only just touching it at one moment in June tlie converse is true, tlie sun remaining above the horizon during the whole 24 Hours and just touching it ut one moment. The period of dark ness in winter persists for the whole- six months between September and March. On March 21 the North pole is on tlie boundary between light and darkness and from Hint date until September 2.3 it remains in tlie light There is, therefore, a day of sis months and a night of six months at the North pole. Brooklyn.—Romance lent n helping hand to science during television tests aboard the Iieronguria in mldocean re cently when, for tlie first time, a ship at sea was thus linked to shore. Passengers on the ship distinctly saw persons appear before the trans mitting apparatus tn a London studio. Chief Radio Operator Stanley I’rown of the B M'angaria saw a great deal more man mere “persons.' 1 lie recog nized his fiancee, .Miss Dora Selve.v, by tlie characteristic way she wears her hair. And in tills manner the girl, who formerly lived for five years in Amer ica while she was employed by the Western Union ns an operator, be comes the first person whose image has been sent from land to a ship in life middle of (lie ocean. The mystic science of radio lias fig ured largely in Miss Gelvey’s romance. She is nn English girl who came to America about, eight years ngo to visit her nfnt. On Iho way over on tlie liner Cnronin she met Brown, who was a radio operator on tlie ship. lie in terested her in (lie radio and it was tlion Hint she remained in America for live years working Mr Iho Western Union as an operator. Three years ago she decided to re turn to her home in London. She went on tlie Mauretania and, sure enough, Stanley Brown lmd been transferred to that ship ns chief radio operator. Before tlie liner readied England lliey wore engaged. She Is now employed with the Brit ish Telegraph company as an opera- log and agreed to take part in the television tests to (lie Borongnrin, knowing her fiance was chief radio operator on that. ship. Shakespeare No Horse Boy There is no historical evidence to support the story, says tlie Pathfinder Magazine that Shakespeare’s first work in connection with u theater was holding tlie horses of noblemen and other patrons. According to tlie usual version of tlie myth, (lie young Stratford man showed considerable en terprise in organizing a “horse hold ing” group of boys who were known as “Shakespeare’s boys." Alt evidence obtainable about Shakespeare tends to discredit the story. It was told by some of the pool's early biographers, fait It has been rejected by most, if not all, of tlie later critics and care ful Shakespearean students. Homesick Ruth Ellen was making tier first j visit alone to her runt, who has no : children. The mint visited the library i and obtained the most modern author ity on child diet. The menu for the childs first evening was planned with cure, but the five-year-old refused to cat. “I’m homesick for something,” she said. “What is it? Maybe wo can lliul some here,” said tlie solicitous aunt. “I think it's doughnuts and cof fee,” replied the child. Creed vs. Deed The curious Influence that men’s creeds exert over their minds is car ried over bodily into our social thoughts and behavior, says a writer, in Scribner’s Magazine. Broadly speaking, men live by their wits as individuals, while as a society they live by their creeds. For society deals largely with generalities, and it is in dealing with generalities that a man consults his creed. We have seen Hint when n man fol lows the dictates of his creed, he will often adopt general ideas and doc trines that are in direct conflict with the specific dictates of Ids mind and conscience. Hence, society commits itself to many propositions that tiro by no means representative of the way people actually feel and think. Marsh Gas to Be Used to Illuminate City, Berlin.—The early utilization of marsh gas-, or methane, for illuminat ing n section of tlie city is planned by tlie municipal authorities for rea sons of efficiency as well as of econ omy. Marsh gas lias a luminosity of 77 to 80 per cent, whereas that of ordi nary coal gas is only 55 to 50 per cent and a ready supply of the former Is always forthcoming from the outlying sewage lands. From the sewage area around Wass- manilorff tlie requisite marsh gas will be collected in about thirty-seven tanks with a capacity of 00,000 cubic meters each and then conducted to tlie Berlin gas works at Noukoellu tc refine and Intensify the. luminosity ot the ordinary gas. Increased Noise Cuts Work, Inventor States Brooklyn.—Noise is increasing 100 per cent yearly in American cities and causes 20 per cent loss of efficiency to the average office worker, according to Dr. Hiram Percy Maxim, lieutenant commander In tlie United States naval reserve, who is working on plans for silencing riveters, subways and build ing machinery. “1 believe Hie worker who is earn ing $20 a week could, under quiet con- dilions, earn $25 a week with no greater expenditure of effort,” lie said. “There is no question but that tlie noise in our cities is a contributing factor in tlie increasing number of neurotics and cases of nervous break downs.” Doctor Maxim mentioned specifically tlio noises of traffic, including horns of automobiles, exhaust noises of cars and trucks, tiic riveting machine, tlie street car, and pulsating noises of many kinds of machines. All those, he believes, would he elim inated or reduced to a fraction of their present Intensity if the public were awakened to what they cost in health and money. Music in Jails Leads Prisoners lo Confess Paris.—Music is being played for Hie first time in tlie prisons of France with results that amaze tlie jailers. Within Ihe few weeks since tlie enter tainment was Introduced thousands of letters have been written by prisoners to neglected families and friends and even to courts, confessing “tlie truth” and indicating repentance. A test, concert given for the chil dren of La lioquetto prison was re sponsible for the Innovation. When Louis Bnrthou, minister of justice, read letters written by tlie children about tlie concert he wept anil re voked an order that had stood for cen turies prohibiting tlie entertainment of prisoners. Now five concert artists of note play regularly in the penitentiaries in and around Paris, two violinists, a cellist, an organist with a portable organ and a woman singer. They play classical selections from the old music masters. They are unseen by their audience, which is forbidden to give applause. Solis often take tlie place of it. Better Grade Diamonds to Be More Expensive London.—Good diamonds are to be more expensive, according to S. B. Joel, member of the diamond syndi cate here which controls the price. “.Stones of three carats and upwards will be affected and tlie minimum increase will ho 5 per cent,” lie said "Tliis increase lias resulted from Ihe big demand for good stones. There Is a glut of the small stones produced from the alluvial workings, hut for the big stones there is a big demand. “I am certainly a strong believer in Black-Draught, as I have used it off ancl on now for about twenty- five years,” says Mr. CJ. W. Blagg, of Cleveland, Tex. “I take it for Indiges tion, sour stomach, a tight bloated feeling after meals, and it has always been a help to me and gives me relief.

MACHINE COUNTS ATOMS CORRECTLY I Savant Finds OCG Sextillions in Ono Gram. i Cambridge, Mass.—Atoms and mole cules now can be counted with greater accuracy than the population of a large city, Dr. Miles Sherill, professor' of theoretical chemistry at tlie Massa chusetts Institute of Technology, re ported in a Society of Arts lecture ia tlie institute recently. “Wo no longer doubt tlie existence or reality of atoms,” lie said. “It is possible to determine the number of molecules in one gram molecular weight ol’ a substance which is equal to the number of atoms in one gram atomic weight of any clement. This huge number is six hundred and six and two-tenths sextillions." The lecturer showed a screen pic ture of tlie motion of mercury parti cles. Study of this motion, Doctor Sherill said, made it possible to count atoms’and molecules. He also dem onstrated the Geiger counter, an in strument so sensitive that it will do- tec'. even u sing!;: electron. “Lir. 11. C. Blumgart of the Boston City hospital lias made a very won derful application of the instrument,” said Doctor Sherill. “He injects :!• trace, one quadrllliontli of a grain, which Is about three million atoms, or radio-active deposit into the arm of a patient. Then with the aid of the Geiger counter lie measures Liie time taken for it to be carried to the heart anil again through tlie lungs hack to tlie heart and on to a point In- the other arm corresponding to tlie original point of injection. “The counter, protected from prema ture radiations by a sheathing of lead, is placed over the heart where it de tects tlie arrival of tlie radio-active substance, and again in the other arm by means of a second instrument. “He is thus able to measure the rate of blood flow through the lungs. Such studies hold l'ar-reaching possi bilities i'er research in diseases of th« heart," .. J
