VI. ? The Sunken Rocks of
Matrimony
WHEN Colonel Sliced dropped
iu to say ko<h1 inOrnlug to
his daughter, .vouug Mrs.
Kolllns. ho was surprised
to tlnd her iu tears.
"Why. what's the matter, houey?"
he inquired with tender solicitude.
"Anything wrong with (Ik- baby?"
"No, papa, tin- baby's all right." she
answered, wiping her face and dab
bing a little powder on her nose.
"Nothing happened to William. 1
hope," ventured the coloucl, a little
puzzled.
Mrs. Rollins straightened up, and a
flash came into her eyes.
"Yes. papa, if you must know it.
something has happened to Will. He
st>ent Ave minutes brushing his hair
this morning, lie put ou a red necktie,
and he's got a? got a new typewriter."
At this revelation of masculine du
plicity the colonel puckered up his
lips and drew dowu his eyebrows to
hide the twinkle he couldn't suppress.
"So-ho." he exclaimed, "and that's
the way the land lies. Is it? ?And you
Just put two and two together and
made seven out of it. did you? Tut.
tut. tut. child: you mustn't let sus
picions turn your pretty nose red.
MASCULINE DUPLICITY.
First thing you know you'll have your
complexiou all ruined, auti that would
never do. Fact Is. honey, you're bark
in" up the wrong tree. There's uotbin'
the matter with Bill. I happen to
know that he's got a particular en
gagement this mornlu*. and there's
good reason why he wants to look a
little spruce. There's no petticoats In
the deal, my dear, and as to the new
typewriter, why. she's old enough to
be your mother, and she's got any- !
where from three to seven children.
I don't remember the exact number
she told me, but it was quite n bunch."
"But why." persisted Mrs. Kollins,
"did he put on a red necktie?"
"Ah, honey, you've got me there. I
never eould understand why any man
should want to wear a red neektle at
any time. But lots of good fellows do,
and I've never been able to discover
that it had any bad effect on their
morals. Seriously, though, little girl,
you mustn't get in the habit of puttin"
two and two together, as the sayin'
goes. Nine cases out of ten they add
up wrong, and It's a mighty poor kind
of flgurin* anyhow.
"I s'pose you've beard about the sea '
of matrimony, haven't you? Of course 1
you have. But 1 don't reckon anybody
ever told you. not even your old dad
dy. about the sunken rock-;. It's con
siderable of a sea. you know, and
there's lots of ships on It. all kinds of
ships, from little cntboats to battle
ships. and some of them go sallln'
over smooth water all the time, and
some don't more than get out of one
storm when another hits 'em. It's
such an uncertain sea that it's won
derful how many vessels cross It In
safety, but there's lots of wrecks, too,
aud most of the ships that's lost go to
piece-: on these sunken rocks. They
hide their ugly heads Just under the
suriace. aim no
body knows
they're there un
til the boat goes
crashln' Into 'era.
That's the worst
l>art about 'em.
If they stood up
a little ways so a
pilot could see
era he could steer
around 'era, but
the sea where
they . are looks
just like It does
anywhere else.
"no petticoat-, in i"ui mere um i
tbk deal. ' any lighthouse In
the neighborhood to warn him.
"Sow, little girl, your ship's gettln'
mighty close to these sunken rocks,
! and you'd better sheer off before some
, thin' goes to pieces. I've been nav
igatin' around on this sea of matri
mony a pretty long while, and I've seen
enough wrecks to kuow Just about
where the suspicion rocks are located.
That's the name of 'em-the suspicion
p>cks? and the biggest and ugliest and
meanest one in the bunch is the one
they call Jealousy. It's the one that's
1 got the sharpest points and cuts the
biggest holes in the bottom of the ship,
and It's a thunderin' good boat that
can get away from It without bein* so
badly crippled that the pumps have to
be worked all the rest of the trip to
keep from goln' down.
j "Of course that's all Just a'legory,
honey, but there's uiore truth than
liootry In It. as they sny down on the
farm. The hardest kind of an enemy
to tight I t the one you don't know any
thing at?out. and the worst thing that
can com > between a husband and wife
Is suspicion, for it always works lu
the dark and seldom raises Its head
so you can see It and get a lick at it
until It's done Its work. If 1 had my
choice I'd ten times rather have a
woman with frowsy hair and Ihe roll
In' pin habit than one who gets the
notion lu her head that her husband
Is a devil of a fellow when he's away
from home and weeps her eyes out
over Imaginary wrougs. I'd know
what to do with the rollln" pin? at
least 1 could dodge it? but how 're you
goln' to dodge a Ihing that you can't
see or can't hear? Now. William went
off downtown this morning without a
thought In his heart that he'd done
anything to worry you. and as a mat
ter of fact he hadn't. He didn't know
you were seeln' things that didn't ex
ist. and If I hadn't dropped in and set
you right you'd kept on seein' them,
TDK BCNKXK KOCKH.
and they'd have kept o"h growln' bigger
anil bigger lu your mind until you
couldn't see anything else. Chances
are you wouldn't have said a word to
biin until the poison bad corroded all;
the sweetness of life, and It would
tbeu be too laic for antidotes.
"I don't care what these sour faced
knockers say, little girl? this Is a
mighty Hue world, and most of the
people in it are all right. Nine men
out of every teu and niue women out
of every ten are true? I believe the
proportion even bigger than that? and '
there's more genuine fidelity right now
thun there ever was since Adam and
Eve took bauds and strolled out of the
orchard. But If you look at 'em
through smoked glasses you can't sec
the white that's in 'em, and if you get
the uotlon fixed in your bead that
they're all black, why, so far as you're
concerned, they'll be black. A. shovel
of soot will soil an acre of snow,
honey, and a little suspicion will make
your William grow a couple of horns
and a spiked tail right before your
eyes. No. little girl, don't do it. Don't
let doubt get to swellin' in your pretty
head. Bill's all **^0

How Bee? Find Their Way,
Uow are lit'i'H able to tlnil their way
home after their long forays after
honoy? Gaston Bonnier of I'aris lias
been studying tbelr directive seuse,
which he thinks Is like that possessed
by pigeons. Bees cnu fly for two miles
frcm tho hive and are then able to re
turn after gathering their supply of
honey. I.angstroth ami others sup|>osc
that vision comes Into play and that
bees cau see for a great distance and
cau also uote objects on the way so as
to llnd their path. Others, with Da
dant, suppose thut the bees are guided
by the sense o f smell and that they
can smell flowers at distances of one
and a half miles. M. lionnler has
made experiments to prove that bees
cau return to the hive without using
cither sight or odor. As to sight, ho
took bees to a dlstauce of one and two
teuths tulles from the hive in a closcd
box. They always flew back to the
hive when released. The same Is true
when their eyes were covered, so that
sight was not essential.
As regards odor, experiments seem
to prove that bees jwrcelve odors at
only short distances. When n needle
dipped in ether Is brought near the
head of the bee. It shows signs of per
ceiving the odor, but not so when the
needle is placed back of him or near
other organs. Besides, when the or
gans of smell (nutennae) arc removed
entirely the bees will return to the
hive. M. Bonnier made the following
experiment: At 000 feet from the hive
be placed a supply of sirup, and the
bees soon found it. proceeding to and
from the hive. Such bees he marked
with green colored powder. He then
placed a second supply of sirup at the
same distance from the hive, but
spaced at twenty feet from the former.
' Other bees were now engaged in the
to and fro movements to this point,
but these were not the same individ
uals as the green marked ones, who
were still working on the lirst sup
ply. aud he marked these in red. This
gave two distinct sets of bees, able to
distinguish two directions which form
ed a very acute angle. These facts M.
Bonnier believes Indicate a special di
rective sense which does not reside In
the antennae, but probably In the cerc
brold ganglia.
