Numerous Varieties of Bothersome Cockroaches While there are many varieties of cockroaches belonging to the same family, among which are the Ornian and Australian, the American is the most common and widely distributed species in the corn belt, according to an authority in the Missouri Farmer. About eleven months' time Is re juired for a cockroach to hatch and grow to maturity. The female lays a number of eggs which she deposits in a brown capsule. This capsule she retains in her body until the young are ahout ready to hatch, whereupon she deposits it along the run-ways of the insect- Whtm the young hatch they live for a time with the old pair. At night they sneak into kitchen and pan try and track around over the food They excrete a materia.

over food and in their run-ways that has a foreign, and very offensive, odor. That they are exceedingly filthy and dangerous to human health is obvious when it is known that they eat and track over anything from a dead mouse, a bed bug, an empty egg capsule, to all kinds of human foods. Knew Their Winds The ancient ft reek navigators knew enough about the seasons and directions of certain winds, such as the etesians and the Indiao monsoons, to utilize them in making voyages that would have been difficult or impossible without such knowledge, states a writer in the New York Tribune. After the Fifteenth century the trade winds of the Atlantic and the Pacific were similarly turned to account. At the close cf the Seventeenth century the earliest attempt to chart, ocean winds was made by Halley, the English astronomer, whose crude map of the trade winds and monsoons implies that he had a certain amount of statistical information at his disposal.

Water at Food Commonly speaking, foods are those substances eaten or drunk for the building up and maintenance of the human body and to supply energy for its activities. In the more exact scientific sense, only those constituents of the foods consumed which are actually assiniiiated are considered foods, the remainder being waste. Water may be regarded as the most important of foods, constituting nearly 70 per cent of the human body, it Is an absolute necessity for the maintenance of life. The average weight of water consumed per day, only part of which is assimilated, exceeds the dry weight of all the other foods combined. Patchwork Quilt Patchwork is older than history.

It is employed by nearly one billion Chris liana, Jews and" Mohammedans, or just half of the population of the world, says 8. D. Kent, Seattle, in Collier's Weekly. The Mohammedans even end their letters and oilier manuscripts with It The "Ceol Spell" Ceologists state that the earth ha been having a period of cool summers for the last 4.500 years. This "cool spell" will last for flftOO more years.

Tiny Ship Believed Immortal Eighty years old, the tiny Australian bay steamer IMina. of a few hundrel tons, is believed by superstitious sr.ii-ors to be destined to live forever. She has a bad reputation as a destroyer, for she has bit two boats, both ten times her and they have foundered after the collision, while she has proceeded on her way unharmed. The l'dina now chugs along quietly on her daily round between Melbourne and Gorlong, in Australia, but she played vorthy part in early commonwealth 'Uf tory. She was the official guest boat when the duke of Edinburgh visited the colonies in 1 8 7.

The Queerest Banquet Porcupine salad was one of the many exotic dishes served to members of the National Aclimatisation society at their annual banquet in Paris.

Perfection in Dogs Not Preferred by Dog Owners In coinuieiiliu on the high standards set on finely hred dos. one prominent dog owner says: "Accepting the UK) per cent standards set for various breeds of dogs, I believe that 75 per cent is fop for 0T9 out of every housed by the average dog owner, "The prospective owner looks for 'hree things: General appearance the dog appear true to type, he unmistakably a setter.

"If the dog fulfills these three things and is, in addition, of registered stock, the average owner is not going to worry about the 100 per cent standard. We must not lose sight of the fact that If all dogs were absolute standard nobody could afford to own one; they would be too perfect and too expensive."
