we pray that Thou wilt ?how each
one of us Just what Thou wouldst have
us to do.

elements of a better life must come.?

Fish's Change of Color
As a quick-change artist the parrot
flsh has few equals. Swimming about
In the tropical waters, the parrot fish
Is a clear turquoise green during the |
daytime. Finding a quiet nook
among the stones and weeds, its color
fades to a dull olive. Further changes
B<? on whilst It sleeps. Numerous red
dish brown spots appear on Its body.
Placed in an aquarium having a
plain green bottom, the parrot flsh re
tains its coat of green and does not
put on night clothes. But If a few
large stones are dropped Into the
aquarium, corresponding blotches ay
pear on the sleeping fish.
The Glove in History
The use of gloves dates back to re
mote times. Xenophon sneered at the
Persians for wearing gloves to keep
their hands warm. The Greeks and
Romans alsb scorned the use of gloves.
The glove appears to have become a
well-known article of dress In Eng
land about the Fourteenth century.
The materials used for making leather
gloves are principally the skin of deer,
cheep and lambs, goats and kids, the
latter being the most Important,
though far more kid gloves are made
of sheep than of kid leather.
Planes Spread Terror
The terrifying effect of airplanes
upon wild fowl is so great that If any
general use should be made of them
In hunting, the result would be ex
ceedingly disastrous, according to a
bulletin of the biological survey of the
Department of Agriculture. Probably
no other single method of pursuit of
wild ducks and other game birds
could parallel their deadly effect In
reducing the number of wild fowl.
It is for this reason that the biolog
ical survey has called upon all sports
men and conservationists Interested
in the maintenance of this country's
supply of wild fowl to gather and for
ward to it in Washington accurate
information concerning such viola
tions of iaw.
Weights and Figures
The grain ig the one unit which Is
the same in troy and avoirdupois
weight. An avoirdupois pound is
7.0(H) grains, a troy pound 5,7(30. The
avoirdupois ounce is 437.? grains, and
the troy 480 grains. A hundred avoir
dupois pounds of gold would be
worth $2i),10G.G7.
The American billion 13 expressed
hy a unit and nine ciphers?1,000.000,
000. In Germany, France and else
where in K11 rope the same ligure is
called a milliard. The British billion
and the German, too. Is expressed by
a unit and 12 ciphers?1,000,000,
000,000.
Weather and Health
Different kinds of weather affect
different people in different ways, but
as a rule we feel better when the sun
is shining. Damp is an enemy of
health; a cool, bracing day a friend.
Doctors frequently order their pa
tients a "change of scene," and they
are now learning that the benefits of
such a change are greater oven than
they had thought, because a change
of scene usually means a change of
climate as well. Temperature, the
amount of moisture in the air, the
height above sea-level ? all these
things can uffect our health.
Mind Had Slumbered
A curious case on record is that of
a blacksmith, Paul Stengel, who was
klckcd in the head by a horse while
in the middle of a sentence addressed
to his assistant, and rendered uncon
scious for several days. On recover
ing, his mind was an absolute blank,
until one day he fell down a flight of
steps, pitching on his head.
lie was picked up in a dazed condi
tion; and on recovering his senses tlir
first words he uttered were the com
pletion of the sentence that had been
Interrupted by the horse's kick some
months earlier.
Took a "Day Off"
-The longest night in history, Sep
tember 2, 1752, was when the Ore
gorlan calendar was adopted In Eng
land, through the influence of Lord'
Chesterfield. The calendar arranged
by Julius Caesar, by not making suf- |
flclent allowance for leap year, had
caused the English date to become 11
days behind the rlgbt time. These I
lays were omitted after September 2.!
so that the aext day was reckoned as 1
teptsntor 14 . I
