A Night In Bachelor's Hall They've gone away! It geems a year, Aye, weeks of years, since they wen here. And yet It was but yesterday I kissed them when they went away; Away from all the scorching heat That grips this rSrick-walled ctty street. And It was I who bade them go. Though, she, dear heart, protested so, And vowed I'd find no joy at all, Nor any peace. In Bachelor's Hall. I laughed at that, but she was right; I never knew a sadder nijrht Than this, while thus I tread alone, These silent halls I eall my own. t never thought this place could change Eo utterly, and seem so strange. The night Is hot and yet a chill Pervades the house; It Is so still. I miss the living atmosphere That comforts me when they are here; I miss the sigh, long drawn and deep, The music of refreshing sleep, That undulates the gentle breast Of weary motherhood at rest. And In the unaccustomed gloom That shrouds the small adjoining room I miss the moans, the muffled screams, Ot childhood troubles In Its dreams. O! Sing your long, all ye who roam; Your wistful eoug of Home, Sweet Home, * But, though unhappy Is your lot. You will not find a sadder spot In all the world, than Hame, when they Who make It home have gone away. Harry "S'awful hot to-day."

This fur has been dyed, manipulated, treat-. ed, or bleached and made to resemble ; the more expensive furs. Animal lov , M-S have always deplored the death, of so many rabbits to appease mil- aiiy'j vanity. A rabbit has now been deveV'pert which bears a plentiful crop of "raty- bit wool," and the lirst ansora wool farm has been started near Windsor, England, by Lady Rachel Byng. An angora rabbit will supply an adveragej ot an ounce of wool per year in four clippings. The wool can be spun on even the old type of spinning wheel. The rabbit does not suiter when clipped, nor is it injured In any way. The wool that is produced Is very silky and highly prized. It Isj possible that Lady Byng has started) a new industry which may partially supplant sheep farming. First Experiment Will Be Made in the Island of Cyprus London.-^- A pldn for assisting Bri- tish professional women is now being advanced. To those working out of their own country the problem of where to live on retirement Is a real tfiilii -nlty. Most of them have no home*, and in many cases have no par- ticular wish to return to England, where their problem might be even more difficult of solution. To meet such cases as these resi- dential clubs abroad are to be started, beginning with Cyprus. This place has been chosen because the members would be living under the British flag, in an ideal climate, free from heavy living expenses, and iu a locality spe- cially favorable to women whose lives have been spent in foreign lands.

Latest Zoo Inmate Hard to Describe New York Near the animal house in the Bronx Park Zoo a small ani- mal with brown fur that looks some- thing like the second cousin of a dog enjoys the distinction and honor that goes with "the latest acquisition."

Although the animal looked like a dog, he was more thn a dog, and after Inquiries into animal lore, a sign was placed on the cage bearing the words "Cerilocyn Mlcrotls."

A Pound of Sunshine, Please! Rays that Weigh Mil- lions of Tons a Second For hundreds of years English- speaking folk have used expressions such as "The sunlight strikes the hilltop 1 ' without realizing that they spoke not in metaphors but of an ac- tual fact. To strike means to deliver a blow; there can be no blow with- out weight behind it. But can light itself weigh anything at all? Science has proved recently that It can and does. Sir James Jeans tells us that with a sufficiently strong light one could knock down a man. Minute measurements have shown that a huge searchlight requiring the equivalent of fifty horsepower to oper- ate would radiate one-twentieth ot an ounce of light and heat If it .vere kept working continuously for a '.lundred years. Heat as well as light can be put into the scales and weighed. So can wireless waves or X-rays. Every square inch of the Sun's sur- face is as powerful an emitter as our fifty horsepower searchlight. The candle-power of the Sun is expressed by a staggering figure 323 followed by twenty-live noughts or three thou- sand two hundred and thirty quadril- lions. If every square inch brings out only a twentieth of an ounce of light and heat in a century, the Sun's whole surface is emitting over four million tons in each second of time! In a single minute, outpouring!) of light ai!.l heat cost the Sun 250.000,- 000 tons of weight. An astonishing thought is that the Sun as wo see him today Is 360.000 million tons lighter than he was this time yesterday. There Is no nood to worry; the Sun has gone on "slimming" at this rato for thousands of millions of: years, anil there is enough of him to allow him to light and heat the, world for untold nu-es.
