Modern science has not brought us very much nearer the magic stone of the old philosophers, but it has enabled later experts to play some surprising tricks with the existing materials of the jeweler and lapidary. The old alchemists set out to discover the phi- losopher's stone, and achieved gunpow- der and other adjuncts to civilization as the accidental by-product of their original inquiry. Their less credulous descendants reverse the process; the I invention is made first and its applica- tion to magic is discovered afterward. The existence of the electric furnace makes it possible to create diamonds that are the veritable stone, and to fuse chippings and fragments of ruby into one complete jewel. Now arrives a report that with the aid of radium successful transformations have been made in the appearance, if not in the nature, of certain precious stones. A sapphire, it is said, has been turned into a glorious ruby by long exposure to the effect of radium. Chemically considered, this is not very surprising, for the two stones are both examples of corundum, and the mysterious acci- dent of color is the principal difference between them. If a sapphire can be made to blush hard enough for its mistake in not being a ruby, pre- sumably it could blush itself into a most accomplished example of the more valuable stone. •> TAKE IT EASY IN THEATER REISTKRSTOWN.

Japan must be a happy land for theatergoers, because in that land seats are not paid for—in fact there are no seats. The Japanese much pre- fers to squat, feeling, no doubt, much more at home in this comfortable at- titude. Seats, however, are usually brought for the use of any foreigners who may be present. There are no hard and fast laws of convention. The Japanese playgoer m a y d o a s h e pleases; he may eat, drink, smoke and criticize to his heart's content. Conversations are carried on, and, if they merit it, the actors a r e m e t b y a storna of criticism and chaff. When a man enters the auditorium he removes his boots, and if the weather is hbt, any clothing that appears to him to be superfluous. The naive frankness of the actors' prompter is rather de- lightful, for if an actor forgets his lines the prompter comes on the stage and, quite openly, points out to the actor where he is wrong. A boy Ms kept for the express purpose of walk- ing on the stage and wiping the per- spiration off t h e actors' - faces; this duty he carries out without disturbing the even tenor of the play.

Ants are not the only insects that practice the cultivation of mushrooms, although for a long time it was thought that they were the only creatures of a lower order than man that possessed the intelligence to follow such an agri- cultural pursuit. Bouverie, the ento- mologist, had found that a certain wood-boring beetle, known as the bos- trychide, is as familiar with mushroom, cultivation as is the species of ant of which so much has been written. Pro- fessor Bouverie discovered that the beetles in question bore holes in wood and half fill them with a prepared fungus which makes an ideal mush- room bed. The garden is carefully spawned and in course of time the mushrooms appear. In this w a y t h e beetle provides itself with a food suf- ficiently tender for its feeble jaws. The picnic that was held on Monday was a big success. The attendance was large. The Parkton boy9 defeated the Monkton baseball team on Monday, the score being 6 to 3.

In the struggle for the conservation of energy and material we are urged to cut out the hyphens from our books and writings, says the Chicago Jour- nal. Their use causes us to waste an enormous amount of time, ink and physical force. Some nations build up compound words without any hy- phen to break them, but the English find one necessary for a simple word of five letters, like "to-day." It may be roughly estimated that each of the 2,000,000,000 people who write Eng- lish write "today." "tomorrow" or "tonight" three times a day. Half an ounce of force is required to make a hyphen with a pen or a pencil, so this superfluous, symbol entails a to- tal waste of 18,500.000 pounds daily, or enough to draw a passenger train round the world.

Mavs There was. quite a little excitement in the village last Monday morning- Avhen the covered bridge was reported on fire. Fortunately very little dam- age was done Humming Bird's Nest. Burroughs, in his charming little book, "Wake Robin," says it is an event in one's life to find a bumming bird's nest. The event happened to me without any effort on my part. Looking up from a seat in the grove. I saw the ruby-throat drop down on its nest, like a shining emerald from the clouds; it did not pause upon the edge of the nest, but dropped imme- diately upon it. The nest was situ- ated upon an oak twig, and was about the size of a black-walnut, and from where I sat it looked more like an excrescence than a nest. It was sit- uated in the fork of two twigs, and firmly glued at the base to the lower, but was not fastened to the upper twig.—Mary Treat in "Home Studies in Nature." One Thing at a Tim*, Boys.

The last people to wake up to what they are getting are the people who pay the bills. The bills are getting too big these days in both cases. And the man who is feeling it most with respect to tires is the man who owns a moderate-price car.

It's part of our job, as we view it, to see that he gets it. Our tire service starts with good tires—U. S. Tires.
