' Revelations of a Wife T The Memories That Made Madge Ask Mother Graham a Pointed Question. I waited until I was sure I could speak calmly before answering my mother-in-Jaw's request or rather de mand that I empty my "keepsake" trunk so that she could pack the linens in it for our trip south. It took all my resolution, however, for I knew that she herself had three large trunks, beside a steamer and a wardroke trunk. It is a standing joke in our family the packing .and unpacking of-her things in which Mother Graham indulges. With abundant leisure she spends much of if, especially on rainy days, in look ing over her possessions and trans ferring them from one trunk to an other. And while she also has her treasured keepsakes, I know that they fill but part of one trunk. The others contain her extensive ward robe, beside numbers of dress goods patterns which she has bought from time to time and never maaeup. "Take a slant at these!" I remem ber Dicky saying disrespectfully one day when he had st'olled into his mother's room and fqund the con tents of her trunks piled upon bed and chairs in the process of trans fer. "What's the big idea, Mother? Taking an inventory preparatory to setting up a shop? I warn you now we've nevah been m tr-ade," he put an imanginary monocle in his eye and glared at her, "and'I will not have the honor of" our ancient crest sullied by any sign on the front door. If you feel you must sell these things I'll hire you a little fliv ver, and you can peddle them around the towns, beginning at least 25 miles from here.

"Richardl" His mother had stood looking helplessly at him, patently uncertain whether to laugh or get angry. "You may be blad some time that I nave these things. Prices are so high now."

I said at last, "but what you ask is utterly impossible. I cannot permit that trunk to be unpacked. As you know, it has all my keepsakes in it." "Fiddlesticks!" Mother Graham returned, glaring at ' me. "Keep sakes 1 Bosh I Everybody has keep sakes. . Why wouldn't they be just as safe in a packing box?"

"Have you any idea what the cost of expressing a big packing box would be? Your trunk could be checked. Besides, with the present conditions, nobody knows when a packing box could get there.

Nature study one of the most interesting of all studies can be done right at home, within 10 minutes' walk of your home unless vdu happen to live right in the very heart of a crowded city In fact, good nature tudy deals with Jittle things rather than big. One of the most famous of all nature study books, Gilbert White's "Na tural History of Selbourne," was quite a home affair, 1 Here's a study for this summer. " Get four sticks." Point them and drive them dftply into the ground at each of the corners of a square the fides of "which will be a yard long. Tie a piece of string to each comer, making an outlined enclosure a yard square. This is your held of opera tions. - ' U Now count the number of plants in that square yard and classify their species.. Observe with a magnify ing glass all the insects, beetUJ3, bugs and the like which you find on that square yard of ground. Make observations on the flowering and the seeding of the plants. Note what insects fertilize the flowers. Jot down jn a notebook the changes which come to-lthat squSre yard for the olants of spnne will be dif ferent from' -those of summer and au tumn, just as the insect visitors of each season will be different.

The answers to questions like these-add a great deal to the inter est of the study of biology and zo ology. Quite often, in school, studies must be done only to satisty the teacher, only to advance along a certain line ot study. It's a ' thousand times easier to study, however, when the subject vis one that interests you, when you do the digging yourself. . "Give me ex amples of homological modifications in morphology," says the "Prof." Whew! Sounds hard. But when you find out that a whale's flipper and a ionkey's hand and- a bat's wing have all got the same bony skeleton, then such a subject as "homologies" becomes interesting. Think for a moment what this means. A monkey's hand is modi tied so that it can clutch a branch, a dog's foot so that he can run along the ground a whale's flipper so that he can propel himself in the sea, a bat r wing so that he can beat the air in flight Yet all have five fingers. They have not all got the same number of joints, however. The dogs foot is on the same pat tern as a man's but the whale has only one joint in his thumb and six joints in yhis middle finger, as against our three. The monkey has seven major bones in his wrist, like those of man,-but the dog has only six and the bat's are fused together. When taking up the study of bi ology, or any science, make this a rule wprk out for yourself some one thing which interests you along the lines of a lesson and dig that out You 11 be surprised to find how intensely interesting the lesson itself has become.'

Inc.) s The substance which we term "silk" 011 an ear of corn before it has been husked and cleaned is really the father of the corn it self, because each -little grains ou the ear has received sustenance has been "fertilized" and enabled to reach its full growth by meTtis of the threads of silk-like construction. Each ear of corn is composed of three principal parts: The graius which grow on a cob, the silk and the husk. The function of he latter is merely of a pro tective nature. It keeps th'a driv ing rain and the burning sun from damaging the tender ker nels or .grains, which are the seeds of the plant. But each one of these grains must receive its supply of pollen-powder if it is to develop into S large, juicy, tempting morsel or if it is to grow into a fully developed seed which, in turn, will produce an other stalk of corn. This pollen it gets from the silken fibers which appear even before thj grains themselves are well differ entiated.whfle they are almost indistinguishable marks or ridges upon the cob. But even then it is possible to tell just how many grains of. corn will appear upon the fulj-grown ear. To do this it is necessary only to count the strands of "silk," for each one of these fertilizes a grain and as sists in bringing it to maturity.
