Picking a Husban Shall a @Girl Trust Her Head or Heart? By DOROTHY DIX. A young girl desires to know whether she should be guidéd by her head or her heart in choosing & husband. Both, ohild, both. A happy marriage must be backed by both love and judgment. A proper husband must both come wup to your ideal and fire your fancy. ot course, this s = rare combination, ‘but unless you get it you will never make marriage & succees. It doeen’t do for husbend, . becauss, her right senses should thipk about The man, for instance, who has all the sooial graces at his fingers’ ends, so often ¢an do nothing with his hands to make a living. Drunkards and black €heep Bave nearly always a certain ouri- derness of & woman. light-hearted, and gay, and irresponsible than those founded on love alone. They say that romance is as fleeting as the mists of dawn, anyway, and that it s bound to be dispersed by the coming of the long prosaic day of domestic life. ‘When the sentimental fllusion is gone, the girl who has picked out & husband by her heart alone has nothing left with which to comfort herself, but the girl who bhas selected her husband with her head his, as a, consolation prize, all the luxuries and pleasures that being well placed in the world gives. To & degree this is true, but the heart is an unruly member, and there are not very many women who are philosophical enough to take his cold-blooded view of the subject. They may want luxuries, but love is a necessity to them, and without that the finest house is an abomination of desolation, their tables groan every day under the feast spread upon them. Cupld is & revengeful little chap, and he punishes mercilessly those who flout him in arranging their own marriages instead of leaving the job to him. When & woman marries for her head instead of her heart, he doesn't good naturedly come® around and shoot off an arrow where it will do the most good so that she will fall in love with the prosperous and worthy man to whom she is united. On the contrary, he tortures her to the last day of her life with vain regrets and longings for the romance that -ho never knew. The woman who marries a man J\ut be- cause she loves him, without any refer- ence to what the man is, or the place he cant make for himself in the sun, takes & long shot at happiness.. The woman who marries & man jugt because he is a 4004 chance, wiso gambies with her happiness. Between the two risks there ls small choice. The enly safe piay is to pick out a hus- band who appeals to both your head and your one who I8 & man every uch of him, and yet who can make your heart go pit-a-pat. Luckily, the combination s not an im- | possible one, and any girl can find such « mate if she'll just bide her time and look carefuly enough. , | water into and they starve though !llmun-t 1w In this deep-sea fish the head glows with a soft light, while the body is dark. By GARRETT P. SERVISS. The earth has no stranger inhabitants than the light-making fishes of the deep #ea. They are the remote and scattered descendants of the ocean whiclh ages ago were driven into the depths, where the darkness, the pressure and the scarcity of the ordinary neceseities of fish life arrested the pursuit of their ravenous enemies. They may be likened, in thelr lllll&flon and in the pecularities which distinguish them, to the remnants of ancient races of men chased, like the native Britons and the indigenous inhabitants of, north- ern Spain, into corners and upon moun- tain heights. It 1s important to ge this fact clearly into the mind, for the popular supposi- tion that the deep-sea fishes originated where they are now found s erroneous. They have become adapted to conditions of life entirely different from those in Wwhich thelr remote ancestors were ac- ocustomed. This is shown by the curlous ad- Justmente, atrophies and ‘developments which their sense organs and the struc- ture of their bodles have undergone. They no doubt originated in the shallow ‘waters along shores and coasts, like other fishes, and when the struggle for ex- istence with stronger tribes became too preasing they fled, in the only direction in which they could go, which was down- ward, from the daylight of the surface the night of the ocean abysses. Those who wish to see the forms of some of these. strange fishes, and to study the arfangement of thelr self-light- THE BEE: ing apparatus,’ should visit the exhibi- tion of models of deep-sea life recently prepared . the American Museum of Natural History. There are two controlling circumstances affecting deep sea life—first, the absence of sunlight, and, second, the enormous presgure of the water. Below a depth of a few hundred feet there is practically no light received from above, It bas all been absorbed by the supporting layers of water. To meet this condition some of the fishes have developed phosphores- cent organs, which enable them to sup- ply Hght enough to produce a faint fllu- mination in their Immediate neighbor- hood. At the best they can only be com- parod to persons going about hy candle- OMAH \ TUESDAY, see only by glimpses, and, in fart, of their phosphorescent organs flaches of light rather than a steady fllumination. It is thought that in many cases the purpose of the lght leto at- tract prey rather than to illumine the | way, Of course, the first fishes to take re fuge tn the depths did not go ae deep as | |their descendants now live. They had | to become adapted to the new conditions |&radually. The process of adaptation is #seen in the curiovs forms which the eyes | of some species nmave assumed.

Those who had heard her speak often said that she had never spoken so well, with the exception of just the first fow moments, when she seemed to be a little dased and nervous. Three times dur- Ing her speech the crowd rose to her and shouted till it seemed as if there was never going to be any end to the shout- ing, and when she had finished speak- ing, and stood there swaying like a Iy, and/flushed with a sense of nobllity of power, and triumph, pandemonium broke loose. Out of that pandemonium that besan with cries of Celestia—Celes another | | name gradually took form and substance | —Barolay~Barclay, they bellowed, at | tirst in a kind of syncopated roar, then in unison, and finally with a rhythm that drove men half wild with the desire to be in time with it, and that actually made some of the bulldings In the en- closure sway. “Barclay—Barclay-we want Barclay; Barclay for president—Barclay—Barclay.” | Thus the boom was launched.

Then he turned, standing on her {right hand and faced the shouting ana the tumult. There was no smile of triumph on his face, only a look of grim, bulldog determination and probity. After a long time they let him speak And after he had spoken they went wild again. “I will 40 what & man may,” he sald, | in a volce that carried to the most re- mote pair of ears, “to make the wishes that you do me the honor of wishing. {halls in cities, | I | | habitation for men and women and little children.

An hour later the inhatitants of Bitumen, dispersed now, and for the most part drunk, were electrified by the spectable of a snow white train of cars that pulled elowly Into the station, and was then backing on to a siding. Celestia transformed her fow belongings from her tent to the rear car of this train. The car ahead was for Stilliter and ~ certain other managers and advisers. The next car was the office car. The one ahead of that was for a chosen body of select, able and pampered correspondents. | The snow-white train pulled cut of | Bitumen and the whirlwind e-mpnmn} began. { I cannot at this moment lay hands upon | her exact itinerary, but it is enough to| know that representative parts of the| whole country had a chance to see her. | Now for the most part her audience ! would be composed of their tall white men in long, black coats, with broad black | felt hats.
