Florence answered questions of young women, and some young men, in re gard to love affairs, preceding the re plies with an article of general advice. Only recently these articles written by Florenee^had been accumulated and published in pamphlet form under the title :"Keep Them Guessing."

He was "l£ep£ guessing." ' , Robert did not realize that he yfas the constant subject of experiments for Marion Dixon of the "Gazette." Indeed, he was not aware that Florence acted in that capacity on the newspaper, although he knew she held some position there. Yes, Robert was experimented upon shamefully in order that the readers of the "Gazette" might profit. But Florence really did love him. Only she felt that she must follow Marion Dixon's advice in order to keep him on the matrimonial eligible list. One day Robert called for her at the "Gazette* office and escorted her home, "Shall I see you this evening?" he inquired. She had been particularly amiable, and he was confident she would be glad to have him call. "I think not, Robert. Really, I believe we should not see so much of each other for a while. Besides, I have another engagement." "He'll call me up in a day or two and beg me to relent," she confidently told herself later that day, "and of course I'll yield to his pleading. It's all in the game." * Florence didn't get her chance to relent, for Robert failed to fulfill her expectations. He did not telephone to her and she received no word from him through the mails. Then came the climax. Florence went to the theater one evening with her mother, snd there she saw Robert with another girl. At first Florence was angry. What right had Robert to pay attention to another girl after the many protestations of love he had told her? But her anger cooled and anxiety took its place. She was ready to forgive if only Robert would come back. But Robert made no effort to see Florence. He must be away on business, she decided, but she discovered he was not out of town one evening when she went to a restaurant for dinner and foand him dining there with the same girl who had accompanied him <to the theater. This time Florence shed tears. Well, it was all over now. She had lost Robert. And it was her own fanlt. She wrote "Advice to the Lovelorn" with little heart now. because she was beginning to doubt the soundness of the policies she advocated. Then, one day, Florence met Robert on the street, and stopped him. "Why don't you ever come to see mer she asked him, pocketing her pride. Robert appeared his same old self. "1*11 see you tonight That is, of course, if you haven't another engagement," he answered. Florence had no other engagement and Robert called. He got right to business at the start "I love you, Florence, and I want you," he told her, "but Tm tired of never knowing where I am at If I cant have you all to myself, I won't have yon at all." "Ton mean--" she said, very sweetly-- and meekly. "Tea. I mean that I am proposing to you again, for the last time. If you say yea, well and good. It will make me happy. If your answer is no Til be unhappy, but I'll never bother you again. But if you accept me this time, all this tact and diplomacy stuff of yours has got to stop. How about it?" Florence was silent for a moment When she spoke there was a hint of tears in her eyes. "It suits ine, Robert," she told him. "Ill marry you and 111 never keep yon guessing. Ton <an depend on me all the time." When Robert left her that night he was far happier than he ever had been before. He whistled a gay tune KS he walked home under stars gleaming In a deep blue sky. Ho went to his room and sat for a long time gazing at a picture of Florence and smiling. It waa a smile of triumph as well as happiness. Before retiring he opened a drawer of his dresser, and brought forth a paper- covered book. "This Marlon Dixon has the right dope," hf murmured. "Only rtie forgot to mention that it works both ways. Maybe she didn't know It when she wrote this 'Keep Them Guessing' volume." S. H.

We have seen a leaf of the Illustrated News divided into three parts, or three thin leaves. One consisted of the surface on which the engravings are printed; another was the side containing the letter press; and a perfectly blank piece on each side was the paper that lay between. Many people who haye not seen this done might think it Impossible; yet it is not only possible but extremely easy, as we shall show. Get a piece of plate glass and place on it a sheet of paper; then let the latter be thoroughly soaked. With care and a little dexterity the sheet can be split by the top surface being removed. But the best pfan is to paste a piece of cloth or strong paper to each side of the sheet to be split. When dry, violently and without hesitation pull the two pieces asunder, when part of the sheet will be found to have adhered to one and part to the other. Soften the pa6te in water and the pieces can be easily removed from the cloth.--fL and O, Printer and Stationer.. :•*•'• ' 5 :'.; Diving Beetle la Also •'?/ Called the Water iTiger The Predaceous Diving Beetle-- Dytlscus, and its larvae Is also called the Water Tiger. The beetles themselves hibernate in the muddy bottoms of streams, etc., but come out from time to time. During the summer they are frequently attracted to bright lights. The mature beetles live for a long time. An instance is recorded where one was kept alive for three years and a half, in a glass vessel filled with water and fed morsels of raw meat The females of these beetles, deposit their eggs at random, in the water. Their larvae or grubs are known as Water Tigers on account of their blood-thirstiness. When fullgrown the larvae leave the water and burrow Into the ground, and make a round cell within which they undergo their transformation. The pupal state lasts three weeks in summer, but the larvae which transform in the autumn, remain in the pupal state all winter. These beetles belong to the largest family of water beetles, nearly three hundred North American, species being knowxt--Montreal Herald. Mnkeyi mmd Flmaa "Some persons Imagine," observed a curator, as he tilted back his chair in his office at the Bronx too, "that all monkeys swing by their tails and that they are always picking fleas off one another. Nothing is further from the truth. The fact is that only the monkeys of the New world have prehensile tails, and all of them--those in the cages, anyway--are practically free from parasites In captivity. That's because of the dry air and because our keepers groom them every day. Scratching each other is purely a social courtesy. Or, I might say, the willingness to offer a helping hand. The custom of plucking imaginary fleas dates back a good many years, I suspect, but it strikes me as a very pleasant one."--New York World-Telegram. •.If- Lalkrodor «ad Britola Labrador extends across nearly the same latitudes as the Britiah Isles bat the shores of Britain and Ireland are washed by a current northbound from the tropics while the icy waters of the Arctic flow down past the irregular northeastern coast of North America.

An upright stick of wood, termed the jack, was equipped with a piece of crow gulll or stiff leather, which served as a pick. When the key was pressed down on the keyboard, the jack was forced forward until its pick struck the string and brought out the rather shrill note which characterized the harpsichord.--Washington Star.

The revolt in Congress on the subject of veteran's allowance is expected to have repercussions not at all to the benefit of the Democratic legislators who defied the President. The imposition of the patronage penalties is the only method that will force erring Democrats into line for party regularity. Discipline is much in need but it is difficult to administer so early in the so-called "New, Deal." It is believed that the most effective weapon for economy it to await echoes from the voting public. Once the Chief Executive explains what Congressional bounties to favored classes cost the average taxpayer, it is reasonable to assume the solons will listen to the folks back home. The Democrats who embairrased the President will, of course, feel the pinch when Postmaster General Farley distributes the thousands of jebs on the Federal payroll. The new industrial recovery--public works bill provides an enormous number of opportunities for. political favoritism. There is a likelihood that a newjc'rqp of Democrats will gain materially in districts where the incumbents are disciplined. The future alone will measure the real political ^effect of the hectic closing days of the special session. The Republicans are hopeful of .capitalizing on the dissension in the majority party. * The beginning of the fiscal yearten days hence--will herald the first step in re-organization of government departments. The President has Issued an executive order which either abolishes or consolidates the myriad ed frayed nerves and bitterness of personal nature which leaves scars. v Representative Sumnera, Democrat of Texas, a veteran of twenty years i^* the House has created bad feeling with this sage remark, "It seems tUV me a great pity that Members of • Congress cannot assemble and, figure atively speaking, sit around the count " cil table and without oratory an<K' without paaBion give intelligent, conF* ^tractive ccy sideration to their difficulties.

However, the President is moving to reduce costs of government no matter how mqch it hurts the politicians. The London economic conference is not running smoothly. It is not an easy matter to effect agreements to stabilize world currencies and adjust tariffs. A considerable amount «f bargaining is essential and European diplomats present a united front only in dealing with America.
