What Father Missed.
I linil boon rimrrlect almost n year
nnd know nil of my husband's people
except his father, who lived In nnother
town and who Is fond of a Joke.
One day wo received word that he
would arrive on n certain train, so
leveral of my husband's relatives went
wltl us to meet him. While waiting
one of them suggested that they point
111 in out to me mid that 1 should meet
him alone.
When the train nrrlved they saw
Aim and told me he was wearing u
gray overcoat and soft hat. I, think
ing I had the right one, In fun rushed
out, threw both arms around him,
nnd gave him n big hiss, only to Had
my fntlicr-ln-lnw with the rest when
I returned Exchange.
WIFE GAVE HIM INSPIRATION
Author, at His Wit's End for Plot, Got
Excellent Idea From His .
Detter Half. j
How tlio Idea of a new book was
suggested In un unexpected manner
to the author Is told by William J.
Locke In "The Hough llond."
"One evening a couple of months
after I had finished 'The lied I'lanel,'
I was tearing my hair and saying
that this time I'rriilly had come to
the end of things and would never
again have the ghost of an Idea for
another book, when my wife, who was
sitting on the divan In the drawing
room playing unconcernedly with our
little Pekinese she had heard this cry
of wolf so many times before ad
dressed this little beast 1 love, him
dearly, by the way In the maudlin
tone of which wo both nre gullly:
'Why doesn't he write a nice book
about you. darling?' Whereupon I
clapped my hand to my forehead and
cried: 'I will I I'll write a story about
a man brought up like that dog and
pitched Into the war I And 1 went
straight Into my study nnd set to work
on the scheme."
Women Dry Fish Nets.
It would appear that every line of
labor Is open to women. They are
now seen on tho wharves In Portland,
.Maine, as glll-nt spoolers. Each day,
rtfter n trip to the fishing grounds,
the gill-nets hnve to be dried, nnd
these reels nr ho arrnnged that the
nets Ho across them and nre wound
up similar to a piece of thread on n
spool : In fact, they arc glgnntlc spools.
One rcol will hold n great many nets,
which nre ready for use ngaln In
twenty-four Viours. Women nre now
doing this sort of work. Many of them
are wives f local fishermen. They
recelvo Qfty cents for each box of gill
nct8 they prend on the reel. The
wcuxxm average from $4 to $4.50 n day.
Belgium After the War.
Statistical students of the cost of
living In Brussels show that for neces
sities the price of which may be des
ignated as 100 In April, 10M. Brussels
paid C90 In January, 1010, or nearly
u sevenfold Increase. There has been
a constant drop since January, reach
ing fid in February, -lO.'i lu March, Hll
In April and XV, In May. 1010. Arti
cles not necessities hnve come down
from (11 li In January to -IOC In May,
and clothing, .hoes, coal and light rep
resented by MO In January, have drop
ped to 1151 In May.
Belgium Recuperating.
The rapid growth of the railway
services in Belgium is helping re-tore
normal conditions In that country,
which was regarded as having among
the host means of communication be
fore the war. At the beginning of
December, 1018, Belgium had available
only 805 enrs with a tonnage of 11,700.
At the beginning of June. 1010. Bel
glum had In service 0,104 cars with a
tonnage of 12:1,301. Now 1,050 freight
trains run dally In Belgium.
Agitation for a plebiscite In Dutch
LJmburg under the direction of the
League of Nations is going on In Bel
glum, where expressions In favor of
thjs movement nre being made by
every commune under the leadership
of the committee on national politics.
They set forth that the Belgians in
Dutch Limburg are In the majority
and never were Dutch.
The Reminiscent Fraction.
"I suppose I'm getting to be a back
number," remarked Uncle Bill Bottle
top sadly.
"What number?" Inquired the village
wag.
"I haven't thought nbout that. 1
guess It's nbout two and seventy-five
hundredths."

Washington.- An unusual story of
daring anil romiiiU'uV escape from
death during the w.ft was brought to
light when naval olllivrs made public
an account of the adventures of tho
ctcw of the navy dirigible B 12. which
was given tip for lost by the depart
ment In July, 1018, after it had drifted
around at sea for more than two days,
during which the crew bad practically
nothing to eat and ran short of drink
ing water. The dirigible llnally was
forced to descend and the crew was
rescued by the Swedish ship Skagern.
I The B-1'J, Willi Knslgn W. B. (irlf

C. BrKcoe as assistant pilot and ma

Mass.. eutly July 10 on a patrollng
I expedition.
( Senium submarines were then oper-
i tiling oil' the Atlantic coast and the dlr-
I Iglble was well loaded with bonibs.
Scanty food supplies were carried, as
' Knslgn Griffin expected to return to
Chatham that night. The radio equip
ment had only been partly installed.
Rudder Brace Lost.
, The 11-12 pat ruled to the north and
sighted a transport about .'1:."0 p. m.
Knslgn Griffin headed toward the ves
sel, Intending to escort it toward port,
when the heel brace on the rudder was
j carried away, making It Impossible to
steer the craft.
A sea anchor was rigged up and an
effort made to retard the dirigible's
progress. After a few moments, how
ever, the towing cable parted and the
northward progress was resumed at
an Increased speed.
About 8:SM) o'clock that night a ship
was sighted and nine rockets wer fir
ed from a pistol. The vessel apparent
ly saw the signals and directed Its
course toward the 15-12 only to turn a

I helpless gas bag to the mercy of the
wind.

Naturalist Makes Interesting Report of
Habits of Small Dwellers of
the Desert.
Quaint and curious are the ways of
some reptiles of the dcicrt, as revealed
by tho famous naturalist C. L. Camp,
who has been studying them In tho
Colorado desert. He tells of some rep
tiles, the burrowing snake sononi. the
grldlron-tallod llwird. the ocellatcd
sand lizard, and the desert "horned
toad," which actually swim Into the
loose sand by the strong lateral move
ments of their heads. The gridiron
tailed lizard Is very swift and agile,
nnd when chased will race over the
sand at fifteen miles an hour. Most of
the desert reptiles of Colorado are col
ored like their surroundings, and nre
illlllcult to detect. Others can change
their colors to suit their surroundings,
while not a few of the desert lizards
nre aide to part with their tails very
readily when they are seized. There Is
humor In the ways of desert tortoises.
When one meets another, unless both
nre males, when a light Invariably
takes place, each nods Its head rapidly
up and down as though In salutation,
nnd sometimes noses aro touched as
they pass.

ed. Wild Dash Northward.
All night the dirigible continued Its
wild dash northward, the crew mean
time consuming the small nmount of
food aboard. Knslgn Griffin had no
Idea of his wherenbouts.
On the morning of the third day of
tho Involuntary cruise the sun sheno
brightly and as the gas In tho hag ex
panded rapidly the IMU started to rls?.
Knslgn Griffin, nfter a conferenco,
with the other members of the crew,(
decided to bring the 11-12 to the sur-'

ed up.
Shortly nfter descending u ship wns

Swedish steamer Skugern, bound for
Halifax. A smtill boat was put over
the side and tho crew of the IM2 tak
en off. Then, ns tho Increasing heat
from tho sun caused tho gas further
to expand, the dirigible rose a few feet
above tho surface, was pulled over to
