D., of the College of the City of New York) says: “The sky gets its light from the sun. When the sun is away, the sky is dark. ‘Therefore, the blue of the sky must be somehow thrown to our eyes from something In the sky which keeps all the other colors tn the white light of the sun, and throws back the blue; and that is what happens. The sky is filed with countless tiny specks | which we omy call dust—specks of These | they | solid stuff hanging ip the air. are of just such a size that catch the bigger waves of light, which make the other colors, but throw to our eyes the shorter waves of light, which wake blue. If you could do away with all the solid stuff in the alr, the sky would be dark, and all the light of the daytime would come di rectly from the sun, Skylight is re- flected sunlight, but only the blue part of it.” | ODOR THAT _SERVES PURPOSE Why Certain Bioware Have Perfume That Is Designed to Attract Pol- ien-Bearing Insects. Who does not know the trillium? All the parts to this flower are ar ranged in threes—three leaves, three petals, three sepals, and a tripartite seed case. Sowe trilllums stand up clear and white, others bend thelr heads, Some, like the painted trilliums, grow tn clus ters of delicate white and purple When walking through the woods in early spring you sometimes find a purple trilllum, Bend down and smell it. The chances are that It smells Ike carrion, “Why do you usk me to sniff such a scent,” you protest. “Odor is all # matter of viewpoint,” I answer. “We call some odors perfumes and some stenches, A flower has an odor to at tract the insects that are to scatter its pollen. The trilllum attracts car- rion files. You see plenty of purple triliums, do you not? The filles do their work well, The odor served. Then what ground bave you to call It | disagreeable?” How Turkish Women Are Advancing. Women are beginning to do the work of men In the near eastern coun- | tries, a thing unheard of before the war, according to Mary Mills Patrick, president of Constantinople Woman's college, who has come to this country to rulse a fund for three American colleges in the Near East. “Today we are called upon to teach practical sub- jects,” she said. “We have opened a commercial departinent to train girls for office work. They are in such demand that we can scarcely keep them through to finish a short course. If they have the slightest knowledge of business methods and can speak a little English they are snapped up for office work In Constantinople.” Wom en are ulso taking up courses in scl- entific agriculture, she sald, Why Called “White House.” The home of the President was named the “White House” after the home of Martha Washington in New Kent county, Virginia, tn which her wedding occurred. Washington had many pleasant memories of that resi- dence and he suggested the building of a dents. The house ts constructed of Virgiula freestone, which is excessive ly porous, and consequently would be very damp in the interlor were 1t not for a thick coat of white lead which is applied about once in ten years at great expense. How Clams Propagate. Clams are propagated by spawning the same as fish, ized In the water and hatching quick ly; the young larvae known as “vell giro,” swim on the surface for a few days until, their shells becoming heavier, they sink to the bottom and attach themselves to seaweed or stones; they are then known as “spat.” In a year these are an inch long and are old enough to spawn in thelr turn ; the breeding season !s in May, June and July. Clam beds are pow re- stocked artificially. Why Theory Is Untenable.
